All Chapters of DANGEROUS LIAISONS : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

I watched Sean's wife walk towards us and I could see the way his eyes brightened the moment he saw her. For a moment there, I wished it was me that he was looking at with all that admiration but I knew it was wrong so I immediately tried to get the thoughts out of my head. "Sean honey, I was waiting for you in the car, you said you just wanted to see someone." She said to him before turning to look at me. "Good afternoon." I greeted her, the butterflies in my stomach had died down and I could have sworn that all I could feel was my heart clenching. "Who is she?" She asked as she continued to stare at me. "Esmeralda, this is Ava, don't you remember her?" He said to her and she frowned as if she was trying to remember who I was. "My best friend's little girl." Sean said to her once again and I sighed heavily. The moment he said the word - little girl, I felt a pang in my chest. I guess that's how he sees me.To him, I'm just a little girl. I tried to hide the sadness in my hea

The weekend came soon enough and Sean came to get me from the hotel where I was staying.My bags were already packed and I was ready to leave. I've been waiting for this day all week.I was excited. I'm not familiar with New York city but the moment we got to Sean's neighborhood, I didn't need a soothsayer to tell me that I was in a rich neighborhood.Everywhere looked amazing. Finally, we arrived at Sean's house and he helped me bring my bags out of the trunk. He also helped me wheel them into the house while I followed him with a smile on my face. I was overexcited to be in his home. When we got to the living room, I marveled at the sight of it. It was beautiful. However, we were soon interrupted by Esmeralda who seemed shocked to see us inside the house. "What are you doing here?" Sean's tone suddenly changed. I stood there, watching their interaction with one another and I couldn't help but notice that something was off or was I reading too much into it?"Esmeralda.." Sean

Ava's POV. I looked at Kevin and I waited for him to say something but he didn't say anything. He just continued to look at me, waiting for me to pick up my call. I decided to deal with it later and just pick up the call so that Sean wouldn't think that I'm avoiding his call. "Hello." I said once I picked up the call. "Hi, Ava." Sean's voice came on the phone. "Is Kevin there?" He asked me. "Yeah, he is." I answered as I nodded my head even when I knew he couldn't see me. "Well, Kevin is going to bring you over, we're going to have that dinner today." He explained and I smiled. "Okay." I answered. "I hope you don't mind." He said softly afterwards and my smile widened even more. "I don't." I said with a smile.I can't believe he's being an actual gentleman by asking me if I mind when he can just ask me to do something and I would do it willingly. "See you soon." He said to me before hanging up. I brought my phone down from my ears with a smile on my face and it wasn't unt

Sean's POV. I was currently at work, trying to focus. My mind has occupied with the recent happenings in my life.Although I'm glad that Ava is here to distract me from them. I never knew that living alone could be so lonely. But when Ava came to stay with me, I realized that I had been lonely all these while. And maybe that's why I'm not eager to help Ava find somewhere suitable to live because if she leaves, I'll be lonely. But as a young girl, I'm sure she wants to go out and have fun with people that are her age, instead of hanging out with an older man like myself. I've noticed that she usually comes back home from work just on time and she barely spends time with her colleagues from work. That's just awful and I'm worried that it might be my fault that she's doing that. She might be doing that because she noticed that I'm always alone whenever I return from work.I don't want to be the one holding such a young girl back from doing youthful things. I don't want to be th

Ava's POV .We soon arrived at the chicken restaurant and we all settled down and somehow, I ended up sitting down in between Tiffany and Damon. Talk about having the worse fate. Tiffany was the one who made the order. She ordered barbequed chicken, fried chicken and garlic chicken with barbeque sauce. She also ordered for some beer which was the first thing that was served. "So tell me, Ava, do you have a boyfriend back in Florida?" Tiffany asked me and I sighed heavily. Why is everyone asking me the same question?"No." I answered. "How did you know I'm from Florida?" I asked once I noticed what she said. "Damon told me." She shrugged. "Oh." I mumbled, when did he have time to tell her this? "Why not?, you're really pretty you know." She added and it felt awkward. "Uhm thanks?" I mumbled. "So why not?" Someone else from the group asked. "I was busy studying." I answered truthfully. "Well, you seem like the studious type so I'll believe that." Tiffany added. "So why are
