DEVIN.

A week passes and it doesn’t soften anything. It just stretches the pain thinner until it’s everywhere, like I’ve been skinned and forced to live anyway. Every hour feels the same. I don’t wake up refreshed, I just surface from one kind of numb into another. I keep thinking there should be a moment where my body realizes Aiden is gone and adjusts. It never does. It just keeps waiting, stupid and hopeful, like I trained it wrong.

I stop eating first. Not deliberately. I sit in front of pl

  • Appealing To His Gaze    Chapter 180

    Aiden POV "He said what? Did he even realize that you were ever going to come tell me exactly the stupid things that he had said? If I were him I would have realized a long time ago that I stood no chance but it seems as though he just wants to sleep with you." I said with a little growl. Sometimes when people made such careless statements it was simply because they wanted to have their way with a lot of things but it was not forthcoming so they decided to resort to something stupid because I would never understand how someone in their right senses would want to push me away from a place that I have always been in. Was he trying to tell me that he never figured out that I was going to know what his endgame was? "Look I didn't tell you any of these things for you to start acting crazy or doing something that's going to land us in more trouble than we already have." He announced. Devin was a quiet person who didn't think that people possess the abilities to act crazy and I sometime

  • Appealing To His Gaze    Chapter 178

    Devin POV I should never have had the need to pursue anything except the opportunity presented itself but from what I had started seeing, I was beginning to learn that there was even a whole lot more attached to this and it was all behind my back. I needed to be very acquainted with it just so that I did not fall victim to the circumstances. "So... I have been able to make an arrangement that's going to last for the longest time but it seems as though you are finding it difficult to be able to catch up." Dominique told me with a little smile on his face when I appeared before him. It was going to take a long time to be able to convince him otherwise but in the meantime I also wanted to relax so that I did not fall victim to the mistakes that were happening or around. "I don't really care about most of the issues that have been popping up so I was a father and went straight to the point so that we don't waste our time trying to make sure they are effective enough. I was also at t

  • Appealing To His Gaze    Chapter 178

    Devin POV If Aiden was launching an avalanche I was the wrong person that he needed to bring in or else he was going to collapse together with his hurricane but I didn't want to confuse him or making feel like he was doing the wrong things so I just remained passive. In fact I was very concerned about other issues to add this to the mix. I had my reservations on it was valid in fact I think that anyone who didn't think about these things was just trying to be very wishy-washy. Nobody had the monopoly of acting crazy. It was just a matter of time before everyone finally move on from where they currently were and look for places to go to. No one was going to be able to come up with anything that would not give the maximum room for opportunity for many things to happen unless there was a deadline and something that really pumped them into seeing that there was a future in here. If I was in their shoes I didn't think that I would also want to get involved with anything that was goin

  • Appealing To His Gaze    Chapter 177

    Aiden POV Brainstorming with someone that didn't believe in your vision was another emotional torture that nobody spoke about. In fact I think that most people just glossed over the fact that a lot of people just wanted to see you fail and that was exactly how I felt with all my ideas that I put in front for this man to understand. It seemed as if as much as I was talking it was just coming into one year and exiting the other ear. How exactly was I supposed to explain to somebody that did not care for any fault. It was all as if there has been a decline in the entire framework and everybody was just trying to meet up at one point of the other but they were failing woefully.I would not allow myself to be dragged into a place where there was going to be a lot of explanations and nobody would be out the give the right answers instead it was going to be filled with a lot of mistakes and errors parading themselves and the truth. I didn't want to be part of those people who were on th

  • Appealing To His Gaze    Chapter 176

    Devin POV I didn't think that I wanted to trust a man who had put me in harm's way before but from those way he was speaking I guess he had some remedies that he wouldn't want to share with it an ordinary person except he was sure that this person was in going to put him in a position where he would not be able to defend himself. I saw no reason why I should be afraid of whatever was going to happen instead I just focused on what this was going to bring for me and I realized that I was on my way to some sort of success that required a lot of attention and skill. "Right... I don't think that there's anybody who has the Monopoly to act crazy except the circumstances present themselves. I also think that it would be better for us to remain as quiet as possible so that we don't lose our minds or do anything that's going to affect us much later. I don't want to be part of those people who have a lot of bad words to say to another person when push comes to shove." He added. This was a t

  • Appealing To His Gaze    Chapter 175

    Aiden POV Devin wasn't expecting my terms and conditions and I could see it on his face. In fact I saw the way he tried to process the fact that I was not joking and I meant every word that came out of my own mouth. For what it was worth I thought that he understood that I was not here to joke in fact I was not here to make any gimmicks. Instead I was held in on making sure that everything remained as cordial as possible and that there was no misconception whatsoever because of this. "You seem not to understand that there are a whole lot of things that need to be put in place before you can just bring someone into your space and think that they would not revolt one way or the other." He said with a little bit of patience waiting for me to catch up with him. Instead of me to get angry I just remained as quiet as possible not allowing myself to get the dragged into a situation that was more than what I was currently facing and refused to allow my anger go on and beyond. "if you wor

    AIDEN POVBy the time I made it back to the house, my body was heavy in a way that had absolutely nothing to do with the trip. I went straight to my room, slamming the door shut much harder than I intended. I stripped out of my clothes, turned the shower on, and stood under the water until the temp

    DEVIN POV.By the time the plane touched down the next morning, my nerves were already hot. My stomach felt like it had been tied into a tight knot since the second I closed my eyes on the flight and immediately saw the same scene replaying in my head—the hotel room, Aiden's breathing, the heat of

    DEVIN'S POV.By the time I reached my father's estate, my nerves were already stretched taut. I tried to breathe normally as I parked, but my chest felt tight the whole walk in. The house always felt too big, too cold, too silent. And I hated that it still had the power to put pressure on my lungs

    AIDEN POV My whole body felt wired, like something under my skin wouldn't sit still, and I couldn't tell if it was excitement or nerves or some mix that made no sense, because every time I tried to slow down and breathe normally I just ended up thinking about Devin's face downstairs and the way he
