All Chapters of HIS SECOND CHOICE: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

“You wanna hang out tonight?” Serena asked Shanice as they made their way out of the cafeteria. “Not today. I have plans. We can hang out tomorrow,” Shanice replied, sounding a little apologetic. “Ohh,” Serena answered, feeling a bit disappointed. But she chirped up quickly. “Where you going today?” Serena asked, curious. Shanice shot her a bright smile. Her eyes sparked with passion and Serena couldn’t help but admire how gorgeous she looked. She was an effortless beauty. She could walk around straight out of bed and she would still turn heads. “I have a date tonight,” she revealed, grinning wide. Her blond tendrils were bouncing with her steps. She was exuding an inimitable grace. Serena perked up. “Really? Who was going to tell me? Who is he? Do I know him?” Serena fired questions, all excited.“I’ll tell you everything when the time is right. For now, I can only say he is a charmer,” Shanice explained to her. Serena wanted to know more but she didn’t push further. She w

Today was Amanda's birthday bash. Serena was at Shanice's place to get ready. Shanice had insisted she get ready with her. Serena didn't have the budget to buy expensive clothes for parties. So when Shanice told her she was going to get ready with her tonight, she didn't refuse. That's how it was. Shanice would take her to the place and lend her one of her branded clothes. Initially, Serena used to refuse but Shanice always waved her off saying we only live once and high school is all about making friends and having fun. And as Shanice was a determined soul, she wouldn't leave Serena alone until she listened to her. "This one? It will look amazing on you," Shanice pulled out another expensive dress from her closet and showed it to Serena. It was a grey floral dress with a pearl-adorned neckline. It was stunning but the neckline was too deep. Shanice figured it out from her expression and put the dress back in the closet. She took out another. It was a black bodycon dress- wide sho

Tears of relief rolled down her eyes as she leaped off the bed and bounded over to him. She quickly wrapped her arms around his waist and buried her face in his chest. His body was tensed and his breathing was shallow and fast as though he had run a marathon. Her sobs were not helping him to calm down. "Get out of here if you know what is good for you, Specsie," Desmond sneered at Asher as he bounded over to them in three long strides. He then lowered his gaze to Serena. "And you come here," he roughly grabbed her arm and pulled. Asher wrapped his arm around her in time, keeping her glued to him. The boy seethed. "Fucking let her go. If you want her you can have her after me," Desmond raged impatiently. Fury ripped through Asher, seizing his brain. He quickly pulled Serena to the side and inflicted a severe blow square in Desmond's pretty face. Serena yelped in horror and scrambled backward. Desmond was on the floor, blood dripping down his nose. Asher grabbed his collar and

Hauling his bag over one shoulder, Asher climbed down the stairs. He hoped no one was in the living area as he was in no mood to tolerate any taunt right now. But all his hope was dashed when he noticed his father and his stepmother lounging in the living room, having their morning tea. Ignoring them, he made his way towards the door. "Asher," his dad called, making him stop in his tracks. Asher reluctantly turned, cursing under his breath. With a neutral face, he met his dad's cold judgemental eyes. "How's your study going?" his dad got straight to the point. Asher wasn't surprised. That's how it was always. His dad had no concern for his wellbeing, all he cared was for his grades. "Good," Asher replied just as coldly. "Your mom said you are more focused on your phone messaging these days than your studies. You even came late yesterday," Thomas, his dad stated. Asher felt a surge of irritation. "What I do with my phone is none of your concern. And this bitching old hag is no

She turned off the mixer and rushed to the stove to check the steaks. She quickly flipped the steak in the pan, causing a sizzling noise to hiss through the room. Her entire kitchen was a mess right now. Today was Thanksgiving. She had invited Asher over for dinner. This was the first time she had asked someone over. She have been super busy since morning. She started her day with grocery shopping then she cleaned her entire house and dusted the furniture. Even though her house isn't really big, cleaning took all her time. Before she knew it, it was already midday and her hands were hurting. But her enthusiasm was still intact.She had already decided on the menu for tonight. It consists of her and his favorites. Lasagna, pumpkin pie, butter chicken, noodles, and a few more. Her kitchen had never enjoyed so much attention before. Even though she was constantly working since morning, she didn't feel tired even a bit. Her excitement to have dinner with Asher surpassed everything else.
