As the clock struck three am and James laid down in his bed, his arm covering his eyes to try and block every little thing that had parted him from Kara three years ago. It was like a faint dream that came and went away, but that was the only thing that had kept him from going near her when she had needed him the most.
The whole family had been devasted when the accident had happened. Each one of them were buried in grief, everyone trying to cope with the sadness as much as they could on their own or with the support of someone else.
But then after bringing Kara back to the hospital, James' father had immediately sent him to clear up the business that Kara's parents had left behind. It would not have taken the company even a day to turn the tables around and give the whole business to someone else, so they needed to take action before the other investors could intervene.
His father had to be at home for the family, and Damon had never learned anythin
“Yeah, that was not enough,” James whispered and closed his eyes for some moments before opening again. His lips sliding down to her cheek, “I should have tried harder. I should have chased after you.”Kara stayed silent as she felt his touch on her body. His lips traced the path down to her lips, remembering the time when he had kissed her under the tree for the first time. He did not deepen the kiss, his lips lingered over hers for a moment before opening his mouth and nibbling her lips.“I realized I had lost you when you were not with me.” Kara’s gaze met his with tears. There was happiness in them for having him near herself after so long but sadness as well,“I don’t want to lose you again, Kara. I have been living in hell for so fucking long. I can not handle it anymore. I don’t want to ignore my feelings, give you more time or let everything remain the way it is. I am going to accept it. I am in
Kara had gotten dizzy suddenly and started to fall but before she could touch the ground, Damon instantly supported her as he felt the numbness of her body."Kara!" Damon called out worriedly, but Kara's eyes had fallen shut. Damon's mom and grandma and other guests instantly surrounded them in worry. Without missing a beat, Damon lifted her up in is arms and started to storm his way inside the house shouting at no one in particular urgently,"Call a damn doctor right now!"His voice had turned demanding and powerful. The whole place was suddenly in a panic. James wanted to take her from Damon's arms but Damon was nowhere ready to leave her. He immediately made his way towards Kara's room upstairs from the hall. It was a long way from the garden of their house but without missing a second or hesitating, he carried her there instantly."Damon, calm down." his mom called out, hastily running after them, "it is alright. She might have fainted because she has
Kara came out of her room as she heard strong, cheery voices from outside. After eating the food she had gone to her room to sleep peacefully the whole night. The morning sun shined brightly through the curtains when she got out of the bed and came to the balcony to look outside.Her eyes instantly fell upon James and Damon who were playing basketball for different teams in the courtyard outside. There were some of their friends who were clapping and whistling in encouragement while playing alongside them.Damon's eyes met hers and he instantly smiled and waved at her to come down. She smiled at him, seeing the friendly match that was going on between both brothers. But then the smile was instantly wiped off her face as the ball suddenly hit Damon on the back of his head when James tried to snatch the ball. The force was strong and due to lack of attention towards the game, Damon immediately fell face first on the ground."Damon!" Kara shouted in panic and immed
Kara was worried about James and Damon when she walked out of the washroom in a bathrobe right after a bath. As soon as she was out, a hand was on her arm, pulling her towards a solid chest. Her eyes shot up to face the person in surprise and found James looking down at her with his eyes admiring her beauty."You...?"James smirked and bent down closer to her face, "where else am I going to go?"She twisted her arm to get free of his hold but instead, he pulled her even closer. James' face descended down to her earlobe as he whispered, "how far are you going to run from me in this small room? You are going to find me right next to you each time you try to run in other directions that don't lead you to me, Kara."Kara closed her eyes as she felt his aftershave entering her senses like a long forgotten drug. The aroma coming from him suddenly made her weak. His hot breath fanned on her neck, making her shiver right before his hand slipped around her w
"Nothing." James put his lips on her cheek to leave a kiss and murmured, "Just open the door. I am going out."Kara's eyebrows scrunched up in confusion at his words, "How?""The same way that I came here." he pulled back and grinned at her, "from the balcony."Kara's eyes widened in surprise. He came close to her face with a small smile on his face and continued, "I am not going to tolerate any bad mouthing against my Kara, after all."Kara looked in his eyes and saw the sincere love they held for her. Unable to meet his gaze, she turned her face away to the side. James came closer and kissed her cheek lightly, making her close her eyes at the softness of his lips."Open the door." he whispered, "I am going out."Kara nodded her head and went to unlock the door. By the time the door opened, James had already left through the balcony.****Dressed up in a yellow, knee length dress, Kara walked down the stairs and saw Damon sitt
Kara opened her eyes in a snap, her gaze meeting his with confusion."A day till your engagement. And then what...? A wedding?" he tilted his head to the side in a sarcastic way.Kara turned her head away, her stomach feeling like something heavy had been dropped there that was making her heart feel heavy. Her gesture made James even closer to her as he brought his face to her neck and whisper near her ear, "don't worry. You are going to be mine only."Panicked, Kara tried to free her wrist, "Ja
Kara came out of the party exhausted to her bones. She was tired after keeping her lips in a smile the whole time they met their old friends and classmates. She was not happy, because most of them were just there to inquire in how much wealth Kara was going to be after marrying Damon and if their relationship was a business deal. She heard murmurs and she heard gossips, all she wanted to do was return to her room and as the clock struck one am, she gave the invitation card with Damon to the host and walked out of the party, letting Damon know that she wanted to go home.She walked outside and deeply inhaled the fresh air. After a few minutes, James drove out of the parking in the SUV but Kara did not get in. Feeling him near herself was already too hard to bear, and currently, she was not in the state of being anywhere near close to him.A few minutes later Damon came out running towards them, "Sorry, took a bit long." he smiled at Kara while handing over the purse to
"James you are crossing the lines of...""Uncle, please calm down." Kara interrupted them as she came between them to stop the fight that was about to get heavier, "James is right, Uncle. Please, I need to know what is happening right now. How the hell are you guys getting attacked by gunshots because of me? I... I don't think I have ever done anything that would...""It is not your fault." James stopped her as his voice turned gentle.Neil was not convinced and still agitated at James for speaking out. But now as the words were out, they could not be taken back and he did not have any other option left.James came close to Kara and started, "Your parents had not made their will when they had died. Although I had managed to transfer t
