Devin POV

"Pick up the damn call!" Stella's name pops up on my phone.

Stella is stepping on my nerves.

"It is either you return home or we allow the press to consume you. I don't think any of this is going to be pleasant to you but what can I say?" Her message dances over my phone screen.

Anyone with their head intact will know for sure that Stella has even more sinister plans for me. She might be hurting and my family also doing the same but that doesn't mean that she has forgiven me for c

  • Appealing To His Gaze    Chapter 114

    Aiden POV "Give me the reports that I need to know. What exactly is going on and what do I need to focus on?" Our entire world had shifted from trying to understand what someone was saying behind our backs to fighting for our rights. I didn't want the issues to become more complicated as I continued with my own investigations, ensuring that I didn't overlook anything before addressing it. It was going to take a few minutes before I could get out of the stereotyping that had been imposed on me, but in the meantime, I'm also going to try to arrange things properly in a manner that won't offend anybody. I haven't been thinking about what it's going to take for me to be able to get the freedom that I want, but other than that I have other things up my sleeves. "I don't think that there's any new development that we are not already used to. People are always going to form biases based on what they think about the other person, and it doesn't necessarily need to be true; they just tel

    Devin. POV I didn't want to think too much about what was currently going on because then I would have no choice than to start looking for ways to make sure that I was nthe ot overthinking what was currently going on. Stella had reached out to me through a proxy but I will be stupid enough not to know that she was the one who did that. "I want to talk to you about something." She send the message. I did not pick off my phone immediately because I knew that it was just trash that she was willing to dump on me and it was all a strategy to make sure that she was okay enough but what I didn't get was the fact that she thought that I was not going to be able to figure that out immediately and that was all a lie. "What is Stella trying to prove? Does she think that you're not going to know that she's behind all of this?" Festus asks in irritation. I didn't bother to say a word instead I just focused on making sure that I got to know what this woman's grand plan was. It couldn't be ea

  • Appealing To His Gaze    Chapter 112

    Devin POV I have never wanted anything as much as I wanted my name declared but I'm very skeptical about doing anything that's going to land me in much trouble because all I can see is more ways on making sure that I do not become a shell of myself.I have only one thing that I am particular about doing and until it's been able to be sorted out absolutely no way that I can do any thing that's going to stress me out. "Have you buy any chance thought about how long it's going to take for us to be able to sort out what we currently have or is this just a means for you to keep up with your own strategy?" Aiden spoke over the phone.I wasn't expecting anything seriously from him but that did not take away from the fact that if I wanted something different I needed to pursue it with the last breath that I had inside of me. "Why are you calling after so long? You probably have too many things on your radar and this is one of the things that supposed to stop what you should supposedly feel

  • Appealing To His Gaze    Chapter 111

    Devin POV There was nothing wrong in making any moves, especially the ones that wasn't going to concern anyone at the long run. I watched the entire process one after the other and figured out to that if I needed anything I needed to be thorough about it. I took a big breath. If I was trying to make any moves I need it to be very careful. Aiden was not too far away but that didn't also mean that he's pride could not be hurt by the things that I had decided to do. If there was anything else I just wanted to make sure that I cleared everything out of the park. It was something that I just wanted to repair and not allow more complications to happen under my watch. I had a feeling that it was not going to be easy for me to get rid of the annoyance in my heart, instead it was going to fuel something deeper and if I was not careful I would not be able to get out of that mental space immediately. Aidem walked into the room unsuspecting that I was present which are kind of liked because

    AIDEN'S POVI woke up feeling like I hadn’t slept at all, my head pounding, my chest tight, my mouth dry. I didn’t even know what time it was; I just knew Marcus wasn’t beside me. The spot beside me was warm, so he’d been there, but his stuff was gone and for a second my stomach dropped because I t

    DEVIN’S POV.My chest was already tight, like I'd been clenching my teeth in my sleep; my shoulders were stiff, my brain still replaying last night over and over, a bad recording that I couldn't seem to shut off. I expected Stella to be pissed, clingy, pushy, something-but she was weirdly calm. Too

    DEVIN POVDinner was a disaster before it had even begun, and the worst part was pretending that it wasn't. The whole place felt too warm, too crowded, too loud, even though it was just the four of us. Stella kept fussing with Marcus's sleeve like she had known him her whole life, and Marcus looke

    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
