Three weeks later -> The engagement party went differently from how William earlier wanted it to be. I discouraged him from making it a surprise party, reminding him just how much Ashley hated surprises. I also told him her favourite colour was purple and would always pick a lace fabric over a silk fabric any day. At first, William was sceptical about my wanting to help, but I shrugged it off and told him it was no big deal and, honestly, it wasn’t. I’ve seriously surprised myself at the level of control and composure I’ve had in all of this and every day it increases. Sure, Ashley pushes my button from time to time, throwing herself at William while I’m present, touching him in ways that are inappropriate and sometimes unbearable to watch without having a bleeding heart, but I don’t let her get to me. Arthur has been with me, too. Yes, I should have broken things with him off, but he confessed he’d cheated on me by making out with a random girl on his nineteenth birthday three wee

My eyes slowly open at the continuous shaking of my body and as my vision clears, I realise that I’m in William’s arms and the continuous shaking is because he’s running with me and the reason I do not know. I gasp in fear at the much stain of blood on William's white long sleeve and I quiver at the reason for such amount of blood loss. What happened to me? I silently wonder, with a blank mind not finding anything clear for the while I’ve been awake. Why is William running? Why are William's clothes soaked in blood? And why is he carrying me?! It’s not right, William shouldn’t be carrying me, he should be with...... ASHLEY! She did something to me and my head hurt a lot. It still does, but why? My phone I recorded something about Ashley and the snake did something to me. “Wil...lia...m...,” my phone. I try to say, but the pain in my head just increases and I close my eyes, immediately stopping at the mention of his name. He looks at me with a sorrowful eye, “Shh, we are getting you

All the way back home, I ponder on the event that had taken place between Arthur and William in the hospital and I wonder what the big secret William and Arthur share and for the past twenty minutes I’ve been quiet just thinking. William helps me down from the car while Arthur grabs my bag and we make our way into the house. William's grip around me tightens as we reach the stairs and he helps me climb up the stairs. His fingers curl around my waist and my body tingles, but I ignore it and slowly brush it away. We make it into my room and William tucks me into bed. Arthur enters the room with my small stuff in my bag and keeps it in a corner of the room before walking to me on the bed. “I got to go.” He says, pecking my lips deeply before pulling away to stroke my forehead. “I’ll see you tomorrow.” I nod at him, forcing a quick smile at him, “Okay.” He gets up and walks to the door where William is, and he nods before walking out. William’s eyes drop to me and slowly mouths, ‘I’ll

After we left the house, Seth kissed Chloe goodbye and went for lectures while Liam, Chloe and I make the trip to the wedding gown shopping plaza to look for the perfect gown for tomorrow’s wedding. We walk into the plaza and Liam turns to us, “The arrays of gowns are in this section,” he points to the left-hand side of the plaza, “keep up ladies.” We follow behind him, and Chloe speaks. “Why would you ever think that of both William and Arthur?” I had narrated the entire event to her on our way here and she just seems to have understood it now. “You weren’t there Chloe, you didn’t see what I saw... Or at least what I thought I saw.” I say, falling into steps with her. “What you saw was probably two guys who are working to mend their relationship, which was your own idea, right?” I sigh in defeat, “I guess I just saw more than that……. I don’t know. He said William had to tell me the truth though.” I say, my eye dropping to my fidgeting hands. She puts her hand on my shoulder and

“It’s about the secret between Arthur and William.” She says, making me halt and I turn to her. “How are you here?” I ask staring at her, “and not in jail?” “Would you believe me if I say I escaped?” She asks, and I know she’s telling the truth. A pitiful smile appears on my face as I stare at her. “You really have gone low Ashley, still I’m not surprised, and I expected it. But did you seriously think I’d be that gullible?” Ignoring my question, she asks, “Are you going to listen or are you going to gloat?” “There is no secret between them Ashley, and you are dumb if you think William and Arthur are gay.” She stares at me ridiculously and shakes her head in pity. “You really are dumb. Anyone with eyes can see that they are both straight men!” she says, pointing at the obvious. I rest my argument, since the secret she wants to share is not about their sexuality. “Then what is the secret?” “You.” “Me?” “Yes, you.” My brows furrow. “How am I a secret?” She scoffs and her eyes

As I arrive home, I make my way to my room and pull my bag out, and stuff the things I haven’t yet taken into it. I had packed little because I planned on returning for holiday, but after everything I’ve discovered today, I don’t think I ever will come back. I go into my drawer and pick all the clothes out, leaving behind only those clothes William bought for me and I also do the same with my shoes and bag. Leaving would be the best thing for me and I’m pretty sure of him since he’s hurt me as no one has. Flashback (5 years ago) Cassandra knocked on my door and informed me that dinner was ready, but my eyes were red from so much crying that I passed and not go downstairs, but I should have known William would not let it go so easily, he cares too much about me or about his food wasting. I’m still lost in which he cares for more. “I’m not hungry, Mrs Cassandra, I’ll just stay inside.” I said through my weak, sobbing voice. “Okay, child.” Cassandra, as always, didn’t argue as she wa

Hello everyone and welcome to (KID) the part two of the first book, I’m glad you stuck around for it. The part one was about Karen, but part two KID is about William, we will get to see who he is, read him like a book (and I know some of you are going, “yes!!!! Finally”) I am glad too and we will know his flaws, weakness and pain and the theme in this book would be a little darker than the previous, but for my young readers, I’ll try not to make it too dark. “The first time I saw her, I knew I loved her; the last time I saw her, I knew she hated me.” William McQueen. Rory slaps the bottle of whiskey away from my hand and it falls to the floor, making the whiskey pour out of it. I glance up at him and throw him a hard glare, hoping he takes the hint of his unwelcome presence, but he doesn’t take the hint. No, he bluntly ignores it. He came here about an hour ago and he’s been staring at me like a fish in need of water and as much as it was revolting; it was also annoying. I’m not

“I don’t trust anyone when it comes top Karen, not even myself.” William~ “Come to bed,” Jean whines, as she sits up on the bed and if I am not trying to finish up paperwork from the office, I would have happily joined her. “You work too much and now you’re working into our alone time.’’ She points out, emphasising on the alone. I chuckle and turn around to have a quick glance at her and I almost lose it at the sight of her. Her long red hair resting on her shoulder and down to her back and although she’s taken off her makeup, she still looked like the perfect display of angelic presence. I grip the pen in my hand hard and turn away from her. The document I have been working on were expansion project I plan on showing to the board members at tomorrow’s meeting and I couldn’t wrap it up before worked closed. It's surprising that at this point I still have to prove myself a worthy leader who can run the McQueen company every day. My late father may have founded the company and have m
