All Chapters of Ayden: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

PRESENT DAYAYLA "One minute, I was fine. The other minute, I could feel the tears rushing down my pillow. It hurts when I try to clench my jaw or grind my teeth. The left part of my face hurts, you know, from my head to ear, ear to teeth. 'It's stress,' Blake would say. But it doesn't hurt any less. "I have experienced this kind of pain many times. I would take a pill, and it would go away. But today, when I was lying in my room alone and staring at the ceiling, I wonder, how long I will have to take the pills to make the pain go away. How long I will have to do it alone? "I took out my phone. I found no one, absolutely no one to talk to. I was too angry to talk to Blake. I can't believe he spread a rumour that I got pregnant when my mom died. I can't believe I actually become pregnant at the end. Quinn will be asleep. I am not close to Daisy and Steph to disturb them in the middle of the night. And Yeona has already done a lot for me. "Suddenly, as if

AYLA "You did what?" Quinn asked me for the second time. "I went to his house," I told her slowly, looking towards the living room. "To?" "Well, if you ask me why exactly I had gone, I would say for Jupiter." I heard her sigh so loudly that I am sure, she is trying to control her anger. "Even I haven't seen Jupiter, Ayla. Most of the world's population haven't seen that fucking planet, and they are surviving." She yelled from the other end of the line. "You don't understand. It is a one-time opportunity for me." I tried to explain. "Seriously, Ayla? You followed a guy, who is your forgotten ex, to a house so far away that you even doubt there's a single soul in the two kilometres radius to see a fucking planet without informing any of us! Is that what you are telling me right now?" I released a heavy breath. I shouldn't have lifted her call at all. "It sounds worse when you put it like that," I said slowly. "Because it is worse

AYLA My phone is still in my hand. And I don't know whether I'm trying to hold onto or drop it. One of my hands clutched his shirt as if my life depended on it, and the other hand held my phone near his collar. I've kissed men before. Men kissed me before. Hell, even Jayden kissed me before but not like this. He was soft outside that pub. He was gentle. But now, this kiss is everything but gentle. His mouth goes as deep as it could but not even once did he pull back. Not even once did he back off, not even for a second breath. I never knew that someone could be so desperate to kiss me that they even forget breathing. It all happened in a blink of an eye. I was hesitant that Mason was watching us. But never knew when did I stop caring and went with the flow. It's all like magic. The sad thing about those magical moments is they always end. When he pulled back, it took me good five minutes to realise that Mason wasn't there. And my boss didn't even mind checking on him like I

Her house was situated at the end of the street. She could see the beautiful gardens perched on the lawn of each mansion she has passed by. 'I could do it,' she thought. Just another minute and she will be inside her room, and he can't hurt her, or at least she thought he couldn't. His truck is still after her, following her into the house. Jack just came out of the house looking at her suspiciously. His gaze shifted to Nathaniel who shortly followed her. Nathaniel is taller than Jack but not as tall as Jayden. He has a muscled body and if something happens, Ayla was sure that would happen, she can't outdo him. He looked dangerous, and he got big hands. Something about that terrified her evenmore. She saw him leaning towards Jack and whispering something, and Jack looked at her with spite in his eyes a second later. * An eerie silence settled over the dinner table. Something is off or it's her fear of Na

AYLA PRESENT | By this time in my life, I knew so many things about Jayden. They are more than I thought I would. Right now, he is angry. It is pure rage mixed with something else that became hard to comprehend for me. Is it hurt, pain or just love? "No, I left you at your father's mercy." His words came out as a whisper with a heavy tone as though it was hurting him to talk with me. "I don't understand," I told him, confused. I came to Steph's cabin hoping to see him. A million thoughts ran in my head about how I would greet him after the kiss. I tried hard not to blush because he would grin like a devil. But never did I imagine, it would be like this. "Of course, because you don't remember." That's all it took for him to break me, a simple and stupid accusation. He was walking out without even looking back after throwing those few sharp words at me, and I started to realise the effect he had on me. I thought he was
