All Chapters of Granted A Second Chance: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Kimberly POV“What is going on here? Why are you in that position?” he said coming closer? I rolled up my eyes and stood up to the bed.“You have a problem with knocking on doors or you feel you can walk in anywhere you deem fit? What if I was naked or better still your sister was” I berated him with my hands folding on my chest.His glimmer increased and he came into the room. What an oaf! “You often call me that. I'm beginning to think it's my pet name”Great! I unfolded my hand and relaxed back on the bed. “ Brother, I think she's your match. You remember when I often tell you one day you would meet your match that would put you in your place?”“Yea. What a great reminder...Now I'm worried” he sat on the armchair by the window his figure amassing all the space. Just by coming into the room, the place now had his aura saturating everywhere like some dark cloud.&

Kimberly POVI checked out myself for the umpteenth time at the mirror to make sure that I was up to boot with my dress, and makeup. Nora had lent me a gown after I had told her about the outing for that evening. She was out now with the flurry guy leaving me and Leonard. After I met him at the study, I had given him one look and ran off. I didn't even know what took me in that direction of the house before I had discovered him. Blame it on my hormones that needed to look at those glass eyes and intimidating pose.He had called after me but I refused to stop because I knew if I went close to him, I would as usual fall prey to his wandering hands that never stops teasing me and yet refused to satiate me.My lip was glistening due to the gloss I applied. I pouted and smiled at the pose and favorable application. Thanks to Nora I would be looking close to perfect this evening.I had wanted to call Sandy earlier on and tell her about our ou

Kimberly POV  After we left the restaurant and went home. Yeah, back to Nora's place again. I so hate myself. I have tons of assignments to submit and yet I let him spoon me around like some idiot.    “I will change and then we will go to your house and take care of whatever it is, you need to do so that you can be happy”    I beamed “really?”    He smiled “yea, of course. You have an assignment tight. I heard that. Do you share courses, with Nora?” he inquired as we climbed to his room.    “Yea. Why?”    “How is she doing in school? is she Improving? or do you think she would need extra help?”    Seriously I didn't see that coming but to be frank, Nora is one of our best students and I wonder how because I've never found her head embedded

Kimberly  PoVI took the last remaining step to her and crushed her to me in a big hug. She squirmed for a while and then she stopped and held me crying into my shoulders. I felt shitty using her weakness, our weakness against her but I had to do anything. She hated me. That was evident, but I couldn't bear it. I loved when she smiled, laughed did anything, or even smacked me across the face but this was beyond me. Rejection.She extracts herself slowly her teary bleary eyes being into my clouded ones. This was a risk I knew was grave. Even if I tried to calm her so that I could reason with the I couldn't resist when she was like this.Her hand came up and cupped my face in hers. “Please don't ever do that again. You scared me so much”“I swear I would never try that ever again. I messed up and I do a lot when I'm angry but I shouldn't have raised my voice at you. I'm so sorry my love”She nodded and leaned

Kimberly POVTravelHe didn't say much to us as we entered, just shared a look with Nora still standing where he was when we entered. I took a fast excuse from him and ran inside to pick up something I had dropped, and splashed water on my face before I came out ready to leave with him. I hugged Nora who seemed emotional at us leaving her alone. That's what happens when you get used to seeing people around and then they would want to leave. Even though for a day, you would feel their absence.“Make sure you come back on time Brother, and make sure you are married by the time you get back,” Nora called after us. I smiled and waved off at her silly comment. The car doors slid up for me to enter and I jumped in before he graciously wedded in still bearing a vague expression.I pushed my hair behind my ears and graced him with a smile as the car pulled away. “Are you mad at me?” He look
