Mag-log inI see my knees push up, and he positions himself between my legs again. The realisation of what is about to happen makes terror explode in my veins. I don’t know where I get it from, but feeling returns in my body. My leg jolts with a force, and I dive my knee into his chest. He staggers enough for
⚠️Trigger warning: SA. Feel free to skip this chapter and start with the next one. AELIANA Petra got to me. I can’t get her out of my head. Something about her being right has my heart pounding. By the time we got back to my room, I was on the verge of tears. I couldn’t go another day without kn
Petra doesn’t flinch, she simply blinks and smiles again. “Sure you are, there’s a baby right….” She points at my stomach over the table. “There.” “No, I shake my head, pulling my tank top down some more. My idiot of a mate packed one of my old ones, it's a super-tight fit. “Is it a secret?” She f
“Is that why you came back?” The girl asks. “Because you and your mate are not on good terms?” I simply stare at her. She seems pretty invested in my life, and for a moment, I start to think she might have been planted by someone out or in here to find out about my plans of potential escape. It’s

AELIANA Being a housewife isn’t for me. But maybe I would like it better if the house I’m in wasn’t so miserably dull and full of gossip. I’m yet to find anything of pleasure to occupy my time. Kingston has been ignoring me for days now, so I don’t even have our insightful encounters to look up t
AELIANA When the door shuts behind Kingston, I scream, not out loud, yet it’s the loudest I’ve ever screamed. The tears come quick, hot and heavy. I should go after him, tell him it isn't his fault, and tell him I wanted him so badly that my heart aches. Despite everything, every moment I’m in Kin
She doesn’t speak, she simply watches me, her grip around her dress tightening. “You know, for someone who undressed and posed for the camera, you’re quite shy about taking your clothes off for me,” I say, both of us wincing.
