LOGINDevin POV Aiden might not understand why I am adamant in making sure that I just want to be on my own and I don't want anything related to him because it only makes me think about things from a weird perspective instead of me understanding what he's trying to do and in the long run I'm going to end up resenting him which is something that I don't also want to happen. "You need to say something. This is not about us anymore. This conversation has taken a high ton and we need to find a proper solution before it's too late. You might not consider it as important but I think that it is something that we need to be very mindful of and we need to talk about a solution as fast as possible." He addressed.I kept watching I'm waiting for him to understand the memo that I am not really a fan of him anymore and I couldn't care less about his opinions.I would rather stick to the plan and make sure that I don't underestimate what I need to put in place and also make sure that I don't have too m
Devin POV Two days pass again and I'm even in a more damning state than before. My eyes hover across the screen. To hell with the notion that I didn't want to have anything to do with Aiden. I was basically rotting all over here, looking or easy to stop my see from going mad."Hey, I thought that you'd be here and you didn't disappoint me." Festus poked his head in, watching me with a measured glance. His eyes were basically unreadable and all that I could do was to hesitate to see what he was up to this time. "You didn't have to worry about anything. I was trying to see if you hadn't killed yourself yet, you know since you've been holding up in there." He continued, I heard a hint of laughter underneath his tone but I would rather focus on something different entirely than this. "Is this why you came to me or you have bad news?" I rebuffed, refusing to be a charity case. I was yet to speak to Stella and even though everything that exploded into ruins, I think that sge deserved

Devin POV "He's back in the country and he's staying in a hotel for the meantime," Timone informed me as soon as he came into the house. Aiden was getting on my nerves. Even though he wanted both of us to come together and work as a team, I didn't think that it would be better for us to do that when we could just stay in our separate ways and pretend like neither of us ever existed. If he was also looking for something to achieve, then he had to work twice as hard to be able to get it and stop disturbing me or trying to make me feel like I was doing something wrong. "I don't want such a piece of information in my arena. If you don't mind, I would love to just remain quiet and deal with my things the way I want them to be." "Oh, really? Have you even considered it again? I don't think that there is anything wrong with both of you sitting together and trying to understand what's going on without any bias." Timone jumped in. Festus was mostly silent throughout the entire ordeal, an
Aiden POV Devin's silence was giving me more headaches than I wanted to give credit for, and no matter how much I wanted to pretend like it was nothing, I just found myself thinking about everything in reverse and finding out that I was wasting my entire time. I didn't have what it took to be able to start all over,r and can I start fighting for a relationship that had already sealed its permanent fate, so I just wanted to give myself a break and not do too much that was going to mess with my mind. I was restless because I didn't understand why Devin would refuse to see reason in whatever I was trying to drive my point a;t instea,d he was going to find it easy for himself to make sure that he didn't not get committed more than he already was. I had only one option, which was to bring something else that was not going to delay me even more than it had already been, and then I was going to have to prove my intentions more than before, which was not as easy as everybody wanted to mak
AIDENS POV.Marcus was still on the line, talking about something, maybe his new outfit or whatever show he was binging, but I couldn’t focus. My head felt heavy like I had too many tabs open at once. I kept saying “yeah,” “uh-huh,” just to fill the silence, but nothing stuck. My mind kept driftin
DEVIN’S POV.I woke up pissed. My head was pounding, and my chest felt tight, like I’d been grinding my teeth all night. I probably had. I barely got two hours of sleep. Every time I shut my eyes, that smug look on Aiden’s face came back. I’d let him get to me twice now, and that wasn’t something I
DEVINS POV.The moment my lips left his, my body reacted before my mind did. I stepped back fast, like I'd touched something burning, and the look on Aiden's face hit me in a way I wasn't prepared for. His eyes were wide but steady, like he wasn't shocked the way he should've been. My pulse slammed
DEVIN’S POVI couldn’t stop pacing. Every part of this situation was messed up. Stella had gone behind my back and called my father before even talking to me. It was supposed to be our marriage, our issue, but apparently, that didn’t matter anymore. I couldn’t tell what she was trying to prove. May
