All Chapters of Our Surface: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Caden’s POVI don't know why she had grown so quiet, my eyes followed hers and they landed on my wrists.Fuck!I had taken off the black bands I usually used in concealing them this morning, more like it fell off on its own for no goddamn reason.Her eyes lingered on for a while and I could tell she was thinking but before then I quickly adjusted the sleeves of my shirt.I tried to play it off as if it was cool and as if I had nothing to be afraid of.But it wasn't cool, fuck it wasn't cool at all.My hands felt numb and tingly and I tried my best not to shake the way I did. But it wasn’t working. I could swear I looked tense.“Are you okay?” genuine care graced her features but she seemed confused. She seemed to want to understand what I was dealing with but didn't know how to put an end to it.I cleared my throat. “Yeah, I'm fine. Why wouldn't I be?”She raised an eyebrow. The frown lines were deep and she seemed tense even without them. “Nothing” she looked away.I had lost count

Anna’s POV“We are here” his voice rang through my head and the words reverberated inside my chest. I had never felt so scared in my life. I looked around at the crowd of people on the streets. The air was cold and humid as though it wasn't even September yet.I looked up and the stars were scattered across the sky, almost like they were just hanging out there to watch us. The moon hung over everything like a big crescent moon that glistened with silver liquid.“Okay...” I couldn't understand. Was this the place he was talking about? It looked like an abandoned property with a bush track leading away from it.He chuckled at my response. “Come on, you'll see” I could hear the smile in his tone but didn't say anything because I honestly didn't know what he meant by that. We stood there for a while, waiting. The wind blew through the grass making little rustling sounds and I felt something brush against me, like leaves blowing around the street and into our direction.“Are you sure you

Caden's POV “You have a secret affair” Sean’s voice held a hint of a tease to it as if he knew something I didn't.“You are just crazy” How did I end up with such a cousin?“So you haven't been meeting the red-haired in secret?” He was still grinning. “Or is this another of your little secrets? The one where you lock everyone out”“I don't see how it's any of your business” My temper had gotten shorter and shorter over the years. I tried not to let him get to me. “Patience Caden, you've always lacked it” There was a little mockery in his tone now, but he seemed to be serious about getting an answer. I couldn't tell him what had happened last night after all, nothing happened.“Go get some blondie to give you a wonderful time,” I said to him instead.“Oh, come on, it can't hurt to try”He left me alone after that. I followed him a few hours later and today, Sean had decided we would explore a BDSM club and currently standing in front of one with bold letters written as “SIPPIN’ SENS

Anna’s POVSomething was wrong with me, believe me when I say it had to be some sort of sorcery.It had to be.I had never lusted over anyone like I was lusting over Caden.Not even Scar. I couldn't tell what I felt for Scar, maybe it was love or some twisted sick kind of feeling that didn't have a tag but nothing happened whenever he touched me or kissed me.Nothing, no sparks, no fire, no tingles, no desires, not even a slight burning sensation on my skin whenever he would brush my hands while we were walking down the street together- when he was in a good mood. Nothing at all.But with Caden Gallagher, it was different, very different. I had lost the number of times I had screamed into my pillow because the image of me almost kissing him had refused to leave my head.It kept popping up when I tried sleeping and if I closed my eyes too long before drifting off again, the thought would start replaying in my brain, over and over and over, until I eventually snapped awake. I could he

Anna's POVErica gave up on running after me and went back home. Yes, I walked home and when I finally made it to the front door, I was a mess of sweaty clothes, hair tangled into knots, and dirt streaked across my cheek. My insides were burning up and that is because I had never been a sports person in the first place. The day's events had taken their toll, but that’s not the only reason why my muscles were throbbing and I could barely feel my feet as they dragged themselves over into the house. She was sitting by the window. Her back was towards me as her face stared out of the window.How did she even get here before me? The thought that she took her car and got here so easily made me want to pounce on her.“Why would you run off like that?” She said quietly, but there was an unmistakable tone of concern lacing through her voice and the words still seemed to be too loud for me to hear from this distance. It was almost like we were at the edge of some cliff or something.I busied m
