All Chapters of Someone Like You : Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

LeonSleeping beside Beth and not being able to touch her was hell. I wouldn't have had a problem with it before when we were still at loggerheads but now that I knew what she tasted like, how she felt around me... I literally had to ball my fists to keep from reaching out to her."You're fucked." I muttered under my breath. "Leon." Beth's sleepy voice called."Hmm?"."Why are you talking to yourself?". She asked. "Having trouble sleeping?"."Kinda." I said. "You?"."I'm finding it hard to sleep." She groaned. "My back hurts.""Why didn't you tell me?". I sat up in bed and leaned back against the headboard. "Come here.""You'll rub my back?". She looked surprised."Who else will do that if I don't?". I frowned then sighed when she bit her lip looking uncertain. "Beth, come on... Seriously?". Just because I had said I didn't want the baby didn't mean I'd let her suffer when she was in pain. I was an asshole but not that much of an asshole."I'm sorry." She apologized. "I just... I tho

Leon"He's your brother?". I stared at the boy in front of me. "What do you mean he's your brother?".Christian sighed and looked down at his feet. "My father got his mother pregnant and left her to marry someone else. That was before he came to Mercia eighteen years ago." He said. "I didn't know about him until last year when I heard my parents talking about him.""Let me get this straight." I lifted a finger. "You watched those men beat up your brother and you didn't do anything?".He looked up at me then but briefly. "They were armed sir." "But my daughter stopped them from killing him." I said."She's the Princess. They have no choice but to listen to her... Sir." He replied."I see." I nodded. "Anything else you know about him?"."He has two sisters and their mother died three months ago." He said. "My father threw him out when he came to ask for help."I glanced at Georgina who was staring at him as if she was just seeing him for the first time. She was probably as stunned as I

BethThere was something different about Leon that I couldn't put my finger on as I stared at him. He was in the gym running on the treadmill with his earphones in his ears listening to music. He looked… more relaxed, like he didn't have a care in the world. Like… whatever had been eating him up inside had been solved and blown away by the wind. He was happier.I'd woken up and reached for him but his side of the bed was empty and once I saw that it was just five am, I knew he'd be in the gym so I got dressed and came down to watch his work out. I was standing in the foyer just watching and admiring his gorgeous body and I couldn't stop thinking about how lucky I was to be married to a guy like him."I love him." The thought came to my mind unbidden and I froze. I didn't know when or where or even how it happened but anyway it had happened... I was irrevocably and undeniably in love with my husband. I'd broken the rules and I was going to hell for that."Beth?". He called.I shivered

Christian was very livid when he saw Elijah walk into the school building with Georgina and her father. He was telling her something and she was smiling and then his scowl deepened when she hit his chest playfully and shoved him making him laugh. He didn't want Elijah here in Imperial Heights or even Mercia but he didn't have any say in the matter seeing as Georgina's father had taken to him. He didn't even like the fact that Elijah was living in the palace as part of the royal family when he Christian, who was the Crown Princess's boyfriend couldn't come and go as he pleased there.He watched as they turned the corner and went straight to the adminstrative offices and he guessed that the fucker was about to be enrolled in the school and that made his blood boil."There's a new shiny toy in school." One of his friends remarked.He cut his gaze to his friend. "What?"."The dude is walking with the King of Mercia. He's a celebrity." His friend gestured around him at the girls who were

ElijahFuck. I was so screwed. I knew it in my bones that the dream that was so vivid, so colourful and wonderful was a thing of the past. And it was all thanks to my insane half brother Christian.I almost knew the kind of person the Princess was; she was a no nonsense person and I was sure she wouldn't have stood for her boyfriend's behaviour if he'd shown his true colours to her but it had been too late.The King was probably raving mad at us and I wouldn't be surprised if he decided to banish us. I wasn't at fault and I shouldn't have fought back but he'd been mean to Georgina and her tears had caused me to lose it. Now.... You must be wondering exactly what happened that led to me and Christian fighting. All stories had beginnings so I'd start mine from there as well.It was just a few minutes before the bell rang for the end of third period. Georgina and I were the only ones in class because we didn't offer geography and the others did so they'd all gone to the smaller lecture h
