The bone of my knuckles slamming onto the bridge of his nose felt satisfying and........painful. I have never punched anyone before, but for a first timer I thought I did pretty good when I saw the blood gushing out of his nose.Snake's head jerks back as he yells out a curse. "What the fuck!!"
The woman that was once on his lap scurries out of his nasty room. "That's for making him do your dirty work you asshole!" I spat, loving the crimson liquid that trailed down his nostrils to the tip of his mouth before going down to his chin.
That was a very beautiful sight.
"What the fuck are you talking about you stupid bitch?" He groans as he holds his bleeding nose.
God, I hope I managed to break it.
"Arabella!" Gwen gasped as she runs over to me and takes a hold of my arm and tries to pull me away from Snake. I wasn't budging. I wanted him to feel as much pain as Haiden felt last night.

Arabella RiveraSnake chuckles when he sees Haiden's helpless face. "Didn't know you had a bitch Cross. You hid her pretty well." Snake smirked."Don't call her that." Haiden snarled fists clenched at his sides.Snake snorted. "This is fucking hilarious." Shaking his head slightly, his eyes fall on me. "I guess the plan B worked? Cross really didn't look like a guy who would slip."Anger steamed through my veins. "Fuck you." I spat. I'm well aware that I was at gunpoint but right now my mouth refuses to listen to my logical mind."Don't think Cross would like that too much." Snake sang in amusement. He was finding this amusing. This was a joke to him.Snapping his gaze to Haiden he spoke. "I'll let your bitch go and also the slut over there. Only if you stay back."Smirking he waited for Haiden's reaction. Which came quickly. "Fine."I gasp. "What? Haiden are you crazy he can hurt you!"Haiden's eyes snap down to m

Haiden CrossAs soon as the door closes behind Bella and Gwen I rushed towards Snake, not caring that the gash on my stomach protested and was in desperate need of some stitches."You bastard!" I roared, getting ready to wipe that cocky smile off his face until he points the barrel of the gun to me and makes a tsking sound."Uh uh. Remember I have my men outside. One wrong move and not only are those bitches dead but you." Snake smirked."You held her at gunpoint." I snapped, stopping mid punch before backing away.Snake rolled his eyes. "You lucky I didn't shoot the dumb bitch. I mean she was the one who came to my home unannounced and threw a punch at my nose. Clearly breaking it." He grumbles pointing at his bleeding nose.My girl had a mean hook. Unfortunately, she practiced it on the wrong person.I shouldn't have thrust her into my world. I was ruining her. I was turning her into me."She didn't know-"Save the

Haiden Cross"What is the meaning of this Snake?" Mr. Rivera grumbles boredly, removing his gaze from mine to pin Snake with a dry look.He didn't seem as shocked to see me as I was to see him. Never would I have guessed that my girlfriend's father was the main person behind the crimes that were happening in this town.Snake looked confused as he looked between Mr. Rivera and I. "He's the kid I was talking about. We need him on the streets."Mr. Rivera hums and turns his attention back on me with a look that spat 'I don't like you'. " Haiden Cross. Funny seeing you here." He says without emotion flicking on his face and walks into the room further.Looking over at Snake behind his shoulder he waves off his hand. "Leave us."Snake nodded, eyes seemed to be still confused as he closes the door behind him. Now it was only Mr. Rivera and I. "I was going to say the same thing," I murmured. Still couldn't wrap my head around the fact that it

Arabella RiveraI traced the entire room with my footsteps as I paced back and forth. I hadn't heard from Haiden in hours and my fingers itched to call the cops. But Snake's words repeated in my head every time I had the urge to.I pressed my lips together as my eyes draw to his window for what felt like the fortieth time. Every time I heard the sound of a passing vehicle my heart would pummel in my chest thinking it was him. It was never him.My phone pings and I nearly flew across the room as I land on my bed with a huff. I reach out for my phone, heart racing as I looked at who texted me. Disappointment weighed heavily on my chest when I saw it was a text from Christian.Figuring I should at least check to see what he texted me, I opened the conversation.Christian: Have you seen Haiden?My stomach drops and I take a quick peek at the time on my phone. It was just eight fifty-five. Even though it wasn't exactly extremely late, it wasn't the

Haiden CrossI felt like a dead man. Maybe I was. Or I would be.I felt numb to the core as I pulled up in the driveway, not wasting time to get out of the truck. I needed a long ass, burning ass shower.Seeing Snake's dead form couldn't exactly be scrubbed out of my brain, especially knowing it was Bella's dad who had done it. How was I to face her again knowing her dad's a murderer?I didn't even know what to tell her if she asked about Snake. I was sure she'd have questions. Especially seeing that I was unscathed.Fuck.Walking towards the door all I could think about is how she was slipping out of my fingertips. I didn't want to lose her, but it didn't seem as if it would be my choice. Was the universe conspiring against us?Closing the door behind me, I wasn't so surprised to see Christian on the last step. His shoulders were slouched and he seemed to be lost in his phone.It was like a routine for him to wait up for me. I

Arabella RiveraWaiting for him to message me was quite frankly setting my anxiety ablaze. I needed to see him, like right now.Not seeing him any longer would only feed my anxiety and worry. I needed to see if Snake hurt him.Walking out of my room, I run down the staircase and raced towards the front door. I wasn't sure what I'd do or say when I got there. I wasn't so sure I'd even be allowed in to see him. If Christian would be the one to answer the door then my chances of seeing Haiden tonight was slim to none.But what I was sure of, was seeing his face up close tonight. I wouldn't be able to sleep if I hadn't.As I run across the lawn and made my way to the Cross's house, my heart rate spiked. What if he doesn't want to see me? What if he hates me for putting him in that situation earlier?I bit into my bottom lip as the thought of him hating me sent a sharp jab to my chest. Still, I made my way to their front door only to flinch

Haiden CrossAs her head weighed on my chest I knew she had fallen asleep. I sighed, soaking in the feel of her in my arms. With the way things were going, I wasn't so sure I'd make it out alive.I had a huge target on my back and I had every intention of fighting for her, for us.But there's so little I could do when a gun is aiming for my head.My eyes drop to her head and I brushed the hair off her face so I could watch her sleep. Her nose twitches in her sleep and I smiled.At least I know I went down fighting for the love of my life.I snorted lightly. Who would've thought, me, Haiden Cross would rather die than give up a girl?But Bella wasn't just any girl, she was my girl. She was the only one to break through my barriers with just one look. She grasped my heart inside my chest without me knowing and never gave it back. I didn't want it back, it was safer with her.It was hers. I was hers.I trailed a finge

Arabella RiveraI hated taking the bus. But today I had no choice. Haiden's truck wasn't in his driveway, neither was Gwen going to pick me up seeing as we weren't on speaking terms.I was to be blamed for that rift I caused between us, but as bad as it sounds, I didn't regret saying those things to her.She should never have told Christian about Haiden and I. This wasn't her secret for her to tell. It was mine, and she had no right.As I got off the bus, I pressed my lips together in irritation as the students forcefully push me as they rushed towards the school building. I was sure it wasn't their need for sudden knowledge that made them so urgent. They just wanted to find out the latest gossip.Come to find out, I was the headline of the said gossip today.____My eyes scan the entire hallway in search of Haiden. I noticed his truck outside but I was yet to see him. But as my eyes continued to survey around, I couldn't help but not

*Two months after finding out she's pregnant* Arabella Rivera "Shit," Haiden groaned as he pressed into me and roughly slammed his lips on mine. He pushes me into the closed door, lifting my silk white dress. His palm burns my skin as his fingers inch closer to my bottom to hold. "Can't believe you're my wife now," He groans, detaching his lips from mine to skim them down my jawbone to my neck. I moan, arching my neck to give him more access. "Can't believe you're my husband," I whispered shuddering when he presses his bulge on my heated core. Only the material of his pants and my thin white lace panties blocked him from penetrating me. But the feel of him so hard against me was enough to have me quivering for more. We had only just come from the courthouse. I didn't want to wait any longer to marry him and he had the exact thoughts. It was his idea to just say fuck it and elope without a big wedding. I couldn'

I bit into my bottom lip from stopping the giddy smile from emerging on my face."You're one lucky bitch Arabella," Meredith giggled playfully.This time I couldn't help the smile from stretching out on my face. "That I know," I whispered while never leaving my gaze off my man as he gets his diploma.The crowd cheered and I pushed my fingers into my mouth to whistle. Haiden turns to me and grins happily. I mouth out, 'You did it.'"Can I have him?" Samantha be

Arabella RiveraWhat was she planning?I could see her eyes on the gun, sense the wheels turning in her head. Haiden's sudden presence was like a light bulb in her head that couldn't go off. Whatever she was planning, I only hoped that she wouldn't get hurt.I didn't want to witness her death too."I forgive you, John. For everything. We can make this work. You don't have to hurt anyone else. " She whispers nearing him.I held my breath looking around the room.I felt helpless and useless that I couldn't stop him.

Arabella Rivera"Get away from her John. They're just kids leave them out of this sick game you're trying to play." Mother begged beside me when father said those nasty words.He snaps his eyes to her. "This isn't a game Margie. I'm serious. We just need to get rid of that boy and we all can start fresh-""No."His cold furious eyes draw back to me. "What did you just say?"Mother's grip on my hand almost turns brutal. "I said no. You're not going to hurt him. I'm not going to let you hurt him." I lift my chin in defiance but I didn't feel powerful at the moment, especially when the barrel of the gun aims at me.He looks at me like I had grown another head. "You don't have a choice Arabella," He snaps lowly.When I don't waver under his glare or tip my chin down, father snarls. "You fucking ungrateful brat. I did everything for you! You're the one who led me to fucking kill those people. And just to pack up and leave you

Arabella RiveraIt's her lifeless eyes staring directly at me that I knew would haunt me for the rest of my life.I couldn't remove my eyes from her. The woman who was like a second mother to me, who basically raised me as her own. Was now dead.I looked at the man who had done the deed. I couldn't see him as anything other than a monster. And that he was. A cruel sinister monster. A fucking demon.Someone who doesn't have a heart. You'd have to be heartless to even hold a gun towards an innocent person.I choked on a sob, a cry, a silent scream. I didn't know what to do, or say. My heart thuds pain

Arabella Rivera"Margie-"No shut up and let me finish," Mother spat. I was tempted to go downstairs and face him as well but she did tell me to stay there. I had to trust that she could handle it."I did everything to be a better wife for you. I tried so fucking hard to make this work. Yet here we are today. Turns out my husband for years have been sleeping with an underage girl that I once considered as a daughter-Mother laughs dryly but I could hear the raw pain in her voice. "I should've seen this coming, the late nights, the not satisfied with anything I do for you. You've been doing this for years behind my back weren't you?" Her voice cracks and my heart squeezes painfully.She didn't deserve this."Margie she came on to me-"Great, a cliche line overused by many cheating husbands.

Arabella RiveraMy phone buzzed. I had been in my room, toweling my hair as I looked at my reflection in the mirror. I wasn't sure how long I had been standing there, gaping at the girl who looked like a total stranger.It was like I wasn't myself anymore. But wasn't sure if this was the better version or not.It all took a couple of hours to have my life turn to nothing but ruins. My so-called perfect family wasn't so perfect anymore. Sweeping or gluing the pieces back together was impossible now. And the look on mother's face said exactly that.My phone starts to ring and successfully draws me away from the mirror.

Arabella Rivera"Please don't take too long in there Arabella," Gertrude whispered, looking down the hallway then flicking her eyes back to me."I'll just take a second, I'll be out before mother gets back here. " I promised while scanning my eyes over father's study.It was very neat for a man who didn't allow his maid in there. Everything was lined perfectly and one would think he had never touched the place.If I needed mother to believe that her husband was a cheating bastard and a drug lord, I needed proof. Not only for her, but the police. I just really hope I would get some evidence even if I didn't know what I was looking for specifically."I hope you know what you're doing Arabella," Gertrude sighs and closes the door. I hear the soft padding of her footsteps as she leaves me alone in my father's study.I pressed my lips together looking around the room. I didn't know where to start first. I didn't even know what I was looking for.

Arabella Rivera"I'm coming with you," Haiden breathes out as he catches up with me.I looked at him. "No, you can't. I'm going home Haiden, if he happens to be there and sees you then he'll be angry and I won't be able to do what I'm planning."I get that he was trying to protect me but I was so tired of people protecting me. He needed to make me fight this battle on my own. All this mess was my family.Haiden scowls. "Are you fucking kidding? Did you not hear what I said Bella, he's dangerous. He put a fucking bullet-I clenched my eyes, forcing out the image that crept into my mind. I didn't want to picture father doing what Haiden said he had done. It was very hard to."Shit sorry. I just don't want you to get hurt Bella." Haiden whispers, tugging my hand to make me stop.I sighed heavily, looking at him. "He's my father Haiden, he won't hurt me," I said those words yet I knew they were utter bullshit. But if I needed this t
