All Chapters of Burning Love : Chapter 1 - Chapter 7

Maximus’ Point of ViewEngland, 1863I slammed the front door open, laughing like a fool with my wench of the day. She clung onto my arm tightly, giggling hysterically in anticipation of what we were about to do. Her cheap looking Victorian dress made her large bosom bigger and that was more than enough to raise my libido seeing it was the only thing I was looking for when I met her at the local tavern. As we staggered our way inside my mansion, we headed for the stairs but unfortunately, we were stopped by a voice who was undeniably unhappy with the current situation.“Maximus.”Twirling my body to that voice, I was not surprised to see my perpetually angelic brother, Nathaniel. He was standing near the large oak double doors that lead to the mansion’s library with his arms crossed over his chest. He did not bother to hide that scowl to show his disapproval of my lifestyle."Another one brother?” Nathaniel asked, disdain clearly shown in his voice.”When will you cease with this kind

Maximus’ Point of ViewA girl was standing at the door, panting and out of breath. I guess she ran all the way here.She fanned herself with her left hand while the other was placed on her hip as she continued to intake big gulps of air. "Oh man. My lungs. Burning. So fierce." she said in every other pant.I raised my eyebrows. So this was Pandora Donovan.I was expecting a rebellious grunge looking teenager but I was wrong. She looked normal, a typical skinny jeans and t-shirt kind of girl.Maybe I was stereotyping rebels these days. Yeah, I'd go along with that.Pandora had raven black hair that reached past her shoulders. Her pale blue eyes held a twinkle, like she was up to no good. That playful smirk she displayed on her lips was an indication she was indeed a troublemaker, looking for something to pass the time.I cleared my throat. Time to show her who’s boss. "You must be Pandora. I've heard about your tardiness issues."She grinned, showing her pearly white teeth. "I bet you

Nathaniel's Point of View‘How dare he show up at my school’, I thought to myself angrily, thinking every single cuss word that described my playboy brother. After all these years-as a teacher of all things-he had to show up here in Cleveland and what was worse, he came to my school. If that ignoramus thought that he was going to come frolicking back in my life and ruin yet again the little piece of happiness that I had finally found for myself, he had another coming. This would not be another repeat of what he had done to me many centuries before.After many long years of searching and after all of the waiting I may have finally found my special someone. The one that I think I am truly in love with. My only obstacle was persuading her to believe that she loved me too. One day, I thought, I would convince her of our love and then I can hopefully break this wretched curse.I glanced over at Pandora who was sitting just caddy corner to me. Her head was down and she was doodling in her n

Nathaniel POVPandora and I were sitting in McDonalds eating our usual chicken nuggets and fries. As long as I have known Panda, she has had this crazy fetish for McDonald’s fries and ranch dressing. I couldn’t help but watch her intently as she slowly dipped the fry in the ranch dressing, flicked her tongue out and consumed the treat. Damn, I thought to myself, watching her eat that fry was one of the most sensual things that I had ever seen.“What?” Panda said, sounding a bit self conscious. The sound of her voice brought me back to the present, “Do I have ranch on my face or something?” she asked, wiping haphazardly at the corners of her mouth.I hadn’t even realized that my staring at her had become that noticeable. Looking away I chuckled lightly and played it off. “Naahh, baby. I was just thinking about how good it was to be back home…with you,” I told her, flashing a brilliant smile.“Awww,” she sang. “I missed you too,” Pandora smiled back at me. And man, her smile was freakin
