LOGINHello everyone! To the readers who consistently leave comments on every chapter of this book, know that you all make my day. You make me so excited to write a new chapter, wondering just what your reaction to it would be. I’m so grateful for each and everyone of you. While this book is to give Travis his own happy ending, it’s also a kind of redemption for me. I really really tried to improve on my book’s pacing and plot. Usually, I’d drag certain events without even knowing it but I’ve been putting conscious effort into making sure every chapter has a purpose and moves the story forward steadily. However, I would love to know your sincere thoughts on this book so far. Please leave a comment, telling me in detail what you think. I shall look forward to your responses! Love, Adeola.

BOOK 3: CHAPTER 100 -ELAINE— The school was surrounded by chaos when we arrived. Sirens screamed in the distance. Teachers were huddled near the entrance, some crying, others shouting into their phones. Parents were arriving in waves, panicked and demanding answers. Duncan didn’t wait; he leapt
BOOK 3: CHAPTER 99 -ELAINE— The banging on my door startled me out of my thoughts. I had barely managed to eat anything all day, my mind spinning endlessly since my last confrontation with Duncan. When I opened the door, Steph stormed in like a hurricane. “What the hell is wrong with Duncan?!” sh
BOOK 3: CHAPTER 98 -DUNCAN- I knew something was wrong. It was the townspeople who informed me about Elaine driving off the cliff. I had no idea, I was devastated about what happened the other night and I couldn’t stop thinking about it. I mean, damn it, I know her. She’s stubborn, guarded, but
BOOK 3: CHAPTER 97 -ELAINE— The next day arrived, and I found myself still in the same position I was in the previous night. I hadn't even budged an inch. I missed the knock on the door when Steph arrived. I was completely lost in my world, and I didn't even realize the time or how long I had be
CHAPTER 135 [ The Sweetest Thing ] ~TRAVIS~ I pushed in slowly, watching every micro-expression on her face. Her lips parted, her brows pinched together, and a soft whimper escaped her throat. She was so tight. So unbelievably tight. I gritted my teeth, holding back, letting her adjust inch by i
CHAPTER 122 [ A New Beginning ] ~SOPHIE~ I fully expected Travis’s name to fall out of her lips, but not in the way it did. After all, I thought sleeping around with Travis was enough to make Elaine despise me because it jeopardized her chances at finally escaping her home. I wanted her to esca
CHAPTER 132 [ A Broken Version ] ~TRAVIS~ The drive home was torture, for a mountain of reasons. For one, I didn’t want to be driving. I didn’t want my hands on these wheels. I wanted them to hold Sophie instead. She hid her face by looking out the window. Her body trembled with the silent sobs
