Arabella RiveraExpectedly, she had everyone's attention in the grasp of her hand. Her long legs stride like they were on a mission. Well, I guess they were. They were on a mission to wrap around Haiden's waist soon.
Arabella RiveraI took a deep breath and let it out slowly through my parted lips. My mind had been racing the entire day. I know Gwen wanted me to forget about what happened but I just, couldn't. I tried, I really did. But every single
Arabella Rivera"Arabella!" A piercing feminine voice booms through the door and wreathes through the four walls of my room. I groan, twisting and turning as I tried to kick off the tangled bedsheet wrapped around my ankles.
Arabella RiveraThis isn't what I meant by 'give me a sign'.
Arabella Rivera" Nah, I'll behave, I promise." His white teeth peeked through his smirk, flashing like a damn headlight.
Arabella Rivera"Seven fifty six. Seven fifty six." I repeated as I all but raced towards the literature class. I was very aware of the ticking clock in my head. I nearly scream in frustration when Mr. Boyd's angry face pushes into my mind.
Arabella Rivera "Are you still mad?" Gwen soft voice filters through the barrier I placed until it cracks little by little.
Arabella RiveraHot chocolate. One of my very weaknesses.
*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'
*Graduation day*"Haiden Cross!" Mr. Boyd yelled over the mic.Haiden turns around to peek at me and sends me a wink before standing up. 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. What does a bastard do when he's approached by underage teenage girls? Oh he accepts their advances and even pays them like they're prostitut
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. I walked stark naked to my bed, wrapp
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
