INICIAR SESIÓNELIANA
Walking into my room, I close the door behind me and lean on it for a moment. The conversation that I shared with Jackson in the kitchen is still fresh and loud in my head.“Deal,” His deep, masculine voice echoes in my head like it's some sort of music or something. A smile tugs at the corner of my lips. Still, I can't believe it.I check the time on the digital wall clock and that's when I realise it's past midnight.

ELIANA Blowing a deep sigh, I dart my eyes around. The view looks amazing from the rooftop under the pale moonlight, yet, nothing quite catches my eyes. That's how I spent the rest of my day since l bumped into Scarlett in the bathroom. I have been in my head and everything around me turned into a blur. Like the outer world doesn’t exist. Just me and my racing thoughts which are too loud to block them away. My mother prepared one of my favourite dish today but…I couldn't bring myself to eat that much the way I always do no matter how much I tried to force myself- The trail of thoughts is cut short when footsteps echo through the quiet air on the rooftop and I suck a sharp breath. I don't dare to turn around since I know who they belong to. I remain standing at the same spot, my eyes fixed on nothing in particular. The footsteps get closer with each breath and finally, a shadow falls over me and his scent, a mixture of his cologne and pure masculine wraps around me like a wa
ELIANA TWO DAYS LATER “Heavens, I want to kill him!” Zoe blows out a frustrated sigh, complaining about Marco not allowing her to go to the hockey party on Friday night because Nikolai wasn't around and she was under his guidance.I have been listening to her complain about the whole situation since we left the parking lot. How she's pissed off with Marco and how of an asshole he is. The corner of my lips curves into a smile, “What?” Zoe asks with creased eyebrows, “Are you sure you want him dead?” I tease and she rolls her eyes.“Of course I want his annoying ass dead. Like dead-dead.” She gestures with her hand and the smile on the corner of my lips stretches an inch more, not believing her words.“Okay…” I stretch the words, letting her know that I’m doubtful about it and she rolls her eyes again.“Maybe…” “He's trying to protect me so that it doesn't happen again? It's almost a year since the incident and…I’m eighteen now. And please don't tell me you’re siding with him.” Zoe
ELIANA A moan escapes my lips when Jackson kisses then sucks on the sensitive spot on my neck. “There’s no way I was going to bed without saying goodnight to you, my dear Eli.” He says against my neck, his hands sneaking to my boobs and he pinches my hardened nipples, earning another forbidden moan from me. “You wanted me to come and do this to you?” I gasp when he pinch my nipples again, “Yes-yes.” I say breathlessly, not giving it that much thought. What's the need of hiding the truth when he already knows it? I tilt my head to the side as he kisses his way down my neck then along my shoulders. My hand finds its way to the back of his head then through his hair, holding onto it tightly as though that would help ease the ache between my legs. I can't believe I’m this wet for him despite the little soreness. I should be ashamed of myself for feeling this way. Of course I am. I feel filthy, disgusted by myself. However, it's hard to suppress the desire. “Open your eyes, my dea
ELIANA A breath catches in my throat when the wooden mahogany door clicks open and Jackson walks casually into my room like it's his. He looks in my direction and we lock eyes through the mirror.“Have you ever heard of the term, knocking?” I question sarcastically and he raises a brow at me as the corner of his lips curl into a smile.“Maybe…I missed class the day it was taught. Do you mind teaching me? I promise to be a good student.” The corner of his lips curls into a smile.“I don't think I need to knock. I can walk in and out as I please. Anytime.” The smirk on the corner of his lips broadens and I roll my eyes at his words. Please someone remind me how we got here. Of course he's talking about the conversation in the morning after breakfast. When I agreed that…I am his.Jackson walks to me, his steps slow and heavy echoing through the quiet air while his eyes fixed on mine through the mirror. I remain standing on the same spot, not morning muscle.I gulp when he finally stops
ELIANA “Did something happen to you at the party? Did you get into a fight or something? Did…” My mother asks in a worried voice, taking a good look at me as though searching for something. An evidence maybe.“NO!” I respond almost immediately, sounding defensive and I curse in my head.“Then why are you limping?” Her eyes soften, her voice gentle as she inquires.Damn it! I should have known this already and maybe tried a little harder not to limp. She always notices everything. Even the tiniest things no matter how hard I try to hide it from her. I can't blame her. She's just being a responsible mother, always making sure that her daughter is safe and sound. She has always been attentive since I was a kid , saying that it's her responsibility to make sure that she protects me from anything and anyone that causes me harm.“I…I slipped in the bathroom while taking a shower.” I stutter, almost
ELIANA My phone on the dressing table dings, pulling my mind back to the present and I turn to look at it, a message notification flashing across the dark screen. “Ready?” I gulp when I read the message, not expecting him to text so fast. Slowly, I raise my head to gaze at my reflection in the f
ELIANAA frustrated sigh escapes from my lips as I turn on my sides for the thousandth time, trying to get some sleep but…to no avail. I stare at the digital wall clock, watching the clock tick in slow motion and it feels like time has been frozen. I close my eyes, clear my min
Chapter ELIANA I turn off the tap, reach for a towel and dry my hands. It is silent for a while inside the kitchen, the atmosphere thick with tension and something more that I couldn't quite wrap my head around, Jax’s words still ringing in my head. Slowly, I turn around to look at him and
ELIANA THREE DAYS LATER It's quiet inside the kitchen as everyone is focused on his/her plate. I scoop a spoonful of the scrambled egg and sip on my coffee. From across the island table, I can feel his eyes lingering on me. Slowly, I raise my head from the plate to look in his direction and w
