REBECCASilently, we descended the stairs, and as he led me outside into the back garden, my steps faltered. "Where are we going?" I inquired. "Just wait and see. I don't want to spoil the surprise," he muttered. A resigned sigh escaped my lips, and I nodded in agreement, although curiosity and excitement tingled within me. Yet, my excitement waned as he guided us deeper into the woods behind the estate. With each step, unease crept into my being. The rustling of leaves and snapping of twigs beneath my feet filled the air as I silently followed Artemy, his determination evident in his stride. Something felt off. Very off. My eyes widened, and I abruptly came to a sta

ARTEMYRebecca's eyes were captivated by the breathtaking beauty before her, but all I could see was her. The sight of her small yet sweet smile illuminated her entire face, radiating excitement and pure happiness. Her vibrant green eyes shimmered with joy, her cheeks tinged with a gentle flush. I couldn't tear my gaze away from her, completely mesmerized by her beauty in that moment. As she tilted her head upward, closing her eyes, I hesitated, taking a step closer and then pausing. Swallowing the overwhelming emotions constricting my throat, I averted my gaze and focused straight ahead. Both of us stood in silence for a while, and an inexplicable sense of nervousness washed over me. This place held a sacred significance for me. Since my mother's passing, I sought solace here day after day, desperately attempting to clear my mind.

ARTEMYThe remainder of the day was dedicated to avoiding any interaction with Rebecca. I secluded myself in my office, trying to escape her presence, and later sought solace in the gym. Frustration fueled my punches as I relentlessly attacked the punching bag. Leaning against the wall, I gasped for breath, the exertion taking its toll. Brayden, observing my exhausted state, couldn't resist making a comment. "You're going to kill us one day," he remarked with a hint of sarcasm. Between labored breaths, I managed to respond, my voice strained. "You underestimate my stubbornness. Death won't come that easily for me." Brayden shrugged, acknowledging the truth in my words. Pushing myself away from the wall, I made my way to a nearby be

REBECCAI lay in my cozy bed, engrossed in the captivating pages of the book I was reading. Suddenly, my door swung open without warning, jolting me upright and causing the book to slip from my grasp, silently landing on the mattress. My heart pounded against my chest, its rhythm loud and erratic. In walked Lynda, her face beaming with excitement, clutching a magnificent bouquet of delicate pink and white flowers in her hands. "Artemy got you flowers!" she exclaimed. Again? My eyes widened as she approached, allowing me a closer look at the exquisite blooms. I eagerly extended my hand, my heart dancing with anticipation. Lynda handed me the flowers, and I couldn't help but gasp. They were simply breathtaking—far more stunning

RebeccaBeneath the layers of hurt and disappointment, a seething anger consumed me, directed at Artemy and myself alike. I couldn't help but question why I cared so deeply. It was an unfamiliar and unsettling sensation coursing through my veins—anger. I struggled to recall the last time I allowed myself to experience such a raw emotion. I had mastered the art of suppressing my feelings, becoming numb to the world and everyone in it. Yet now, I found myself wounded, let down, furious, and even jealous. Artemy had been the source of my laughter, smiles, and inner peace. But now, my heart ached as if he had snatched it all away. I wasn't supposed to care, no matter how hard I fought to detach myself emotionally. Alas, I had failed. Turning my gaze away from the door, I lowered my

ArtemyMy eyes widened in alarm, and I swiftly rose to my feet, causing Bernadette to lose her balance and stumble backward. "What happened?" I demanded, a sense of panic creeping into my voice. Lynda took a deep breath, briefly glancing at Bernadette before responding. "She twisted her ankle badly and can't walk. She's in her room." I uttered a curse under my breath, hastily leaving my office behind. Making my way to Rebecca's room, I discovered that the door was already ajar. Without hesitation, I stepped inside. "Rebecca?" I called out, and her form shifted on the bed, sitting up as soon as she recognized my voice. Despite her attempt to appear composed, a flicker of discomfort crossed her face, evident in the crease on her fore

ArtemyShe sat at the piano, lost in her thoughts, awaiting my arrival. Her gaze fixed on the wall ahead, she seemed distant, wrapped up in her own world. As I entered the room, her face brightened with a smile, and I settled myself on the sofa directly facing the piano, my focus solely on her. Since morning, I hadn't had a chance to speak to her. It seemed like she was intentionally avoiding me. Whenever our paths crossed, she would hurriedly change direction or pretend not to notice me. If our eyes happened to meet, her expression turned cold, her lips forming a tight line. I continued to observe her, separated only by the piano between us. There was a strange look in her eyes when they briefly met mine, but then her expression turned blank again as she looked down at the keys.

Rebecca"How much longer do I have to keep this charade going?" I questioned, the weariness evident in my voice. Lynda settled herself next to me, her gaze fixed on the ceiling. "You have to make him work for it," she replied calmly. "I don't think I can maintain this facade any longer," I confessed, the weight of the situation pressing on me. "Just a little while longer," Lynda reassured me, her words carrying a glimmer of hope. Ever since the Bernadette incident, Lynda had taken it upon herself to lecture me for hours on end, outlining the dos and don'ts of my interactions with Artemy. Each day became a constant struggle to appear indifferent in his presence.

RebeccaI caught a glimpse of a mischievous smirk playing on his lips before he descended, capturing mine in a gentle embrace. My breath hitched in my throat as his soft touch brushed against me, and a sigh escaped me involuntarily. Artemy skillfully maneuvered his tongue against my lips, patiently coaxing me to open up. With unhurried determination, he exerted a gentle pressure, and I gasped, granting him access. Our tongues delicately intertwined, each caress a slow dance that seemed to savor every fleeting moment. This time, I reciprocated the kiss with newfound boldness, mustering all the courage within me. Kissing Artemy felt like a hunger I never knew existed, and I didn't think I could ever tire of it. His hand glided up my

Rebecca"Lynda burst into my room, her face contorted in a pout. 'They're leaving!' she exclaimed. “Milandro said they'll be gone for a few days.” I straightened up, my eyes widening with concern. “Even Artemy?” I asked. She nodded, her pout deepening. “Yeah.” A heavy silence settled between us. I had seen Artemy last night, but he hadn't uttered a word about this. Just the thought of being without him made my heart ache. It had been a magical week since our first kiss in the piano room. During the day, he would whisk me away to the creek, and at night, we would spend hours together. He showered me with affection, stealing kisses a
