Selene's POV

I'm standing in the smokey kitchen of Leviathans home as Rosa grabs the two of us a drink. The large house was crowded with drunken teenagers spilling drinks as they dance grinding on one another and bump into each other. Most of the girls are dressed in skimpy outfits resembling lingerie begging for any attention they can get from the men in the house. Groups of people have gathered in circles having loud conversations as they talk above the loud music blaring throughout the house. Other groups stand in circles laughing as they pass around joints and blunts. Tables are set up with people playing drinking games like beer pong and tippy cup. Couples make out pushed up against random walls in the house and on the furniture, borderline hooking up in front of all the people here. Most of the people I recognize from school but a lot of them I've never seen before. They look older, maybe collage kids. I didn't know Leviathan hung out with groups of older kids but then again, I d

  • Caught Between Enemies   Chapter 27 The Only Choice

    Selen's POVIt's been a month and still no word from my father. Every time Lola's phone goes off anxiety builds in my chest. I'm terrified someone will call with the worst news and I will have to live knowing I wasn't there for my father in his final days. Lola is consistent with the vague updates."The doctors say he is showing some improvements, they are hopeful he will be able to be woken up soon."It's always the same line. I have it memorized like it's a verse in a song. Pierre calls and texts me often asking when I will fly to him, but he too withholds information from me. He is adamite I fly to France in order to see my father but won't disclose his condition. Still using the marriage as my only saving grace. I can't concentrate on my schoolwork and being in that building has become suffocating. Desmond has done his best to keep me sane through it all. I moved out of the guest room and into Desmond's room sleeping next to him brings me so much comfort that I crave right now. O

    December Williams POV"What makes you think Selene will agree to this?" Naomi asks skeptical as she places a folded shirt into a suitcase."Because she knows how I feel about this. It is no secret it never has been." I retort as I zip my carryon bag. "All I'm saying is I was a teenage girl once, and I personally wouldn't have appreciated being trapped into a marriage with such an older man." She gives me a sideways glance before double checking she has her passport and ticket. "I would have rebelled against it." "I finalized all the details in my will. There is no room for her to go against me. She will have to be married for 1 full year before she can get any of her inheritance, and that only gives a portion of the full amount.""You realize you are basing this on her caring more about money than she cares for you or any other person? Selene doesn't seem the materialistic type from what I've seen.""I didn't imply that! She will need financial support regardless of the situation.

    Selene's POVHer pale blue eyes shift from mine as her smile fades quickly. Fuck. That was harsh. She wipes away a tear before it has a chance to fall. "I'm sorry." I blurt out realizing I was out of line. "I didn't mean it like that. I just""No." Lola clears her throat. "Don't apologize. It was insensitive of me. I just feel so helpless and thought a distraction would help pass the time faster.""You aren't insensitive. I'm just flustered. You have been nothing but helpful. I didn't mean to take my anger out on you."Lola's warm fingertips wipe at a tear I hadn't realized fell from my eye. Then she pulls me in close while hugging me tightly. Lightly drawing small circles on my scalp with her long nails. "My heart breaks for you Selene. Trust me I hate that you have to go through all of this again. I promise you I am here for you no matter what. If you need a punching bag, I will take everything you got. I will never hold it against you." Lola promises me. I know she means it. Wh

    William's POV"Wow." She whispers as her rosy cheeks lift with her smile. "I finally get to see those brilliant grey eyes everyone was boasting about. And here I thought they were just trying to poke fun at me."It has been eight days I have been gone and as promised by the nurse Dr. Augustine has sent word I will be going home tomorrow. Luckily there was a bad storm that passed through the other day and grounded a majority of flights to and from the US. Selene believes that is what's kept me longer than planned. She was also told my cell reception was affected by the storm and texting was the only way I was able to communicate. My nurse has been quite busy playing me on my cell and keeping Selene from worrying. I feel bad she has been such a help to me, and I still don't know her name. I haven't spoken since I began this whole thing and honestly I'm worried using my vocal chords will cause me pain."Good afternoon William." Dr. Augustine greets as he walks into the room flipping thro

    William's POVA year ago, September"How are we doing today Mr. Delray?" Dr. Baxter enters the room as I sit on the table nervously. Over the last month I've spent more time than I would like in this office. Not to mention offices of specialists, and various labs undergoing more tests than a lab rat. I'm anxious to get this all over with because I am sick of being poked and prodded at constantly. If it wasn't for Selene's busy schedule I know she'd begin to suspect something is up with me by now."Anxious Jim. Worried you're going to send me off for more tests." I confess nervously. Jim pulls up a chair and sits in front of me as he looks over the medical file that's become thicker in his hand."No, William. There will be no more tests." He says with a sigh. "Have you told Selene yet?""Of course not." I huff. "I've nothing to tell.""William, you have been through a lot these last few weeks. It is important to have the support of your loved ones. You need Selene just as much as she n
