Confession of My Untamed Best Friend Chapter 12 – She Kidnapped Charlie
(Jessamine’s POV)“You cried,” Aiden murmured regretfully when he saw my puffy eyes.“No, I didn’t,” I denied, closing the bathroom door. I walked to the dresser to get my purse, hoping to dab some face powder to hide my awful face. He sighed. “Coming here is a mistake -”“Stop it, Aiden.” I cut him, stopping and never reaching the dresser. I faced him to meet his eyes and ensure he was not making fun of me. “You did the right thing coming here because I finally realized this is much better than your snail mail idea. We’re not completely honest with each other.” He nodded. “I haven’t told you about Charlie yet.”Charlie?My eyebrows knitted, asking myself instead of him who the heck Charlie was. “How old is this Charlie?”“Two months.” When shock registered on my face, he walked toward me and grabbed my hand. “I… I can’t just leave Charlie alone. His mother died giving birth to -”“You have a son?” I blinked, brushing his hand off. I breathed out slowly, dawning with another realiz
Confession of My Untamed Best Friend Chapter 13 – Just Not Now
(Jessamine’s POV)Bethany must be crazy!I felt my heart squeeze tight, and my eyes and mouth gaped wide open, shocked at what she did. How could she drive her car, forgetting to give Charlie to his dad? Before I could stop myself, I shut my eyes and screamed at the top of my lungs, startling Aiden and causing Deborah and Xavier to run to the living room.“What happened?” Although the kitchen was not far from the living room, the horror and the shock from my scream made Deborah panic and panted from her short run.“She kidnapped Charlie,” I cried at Xavier, hoping he felt the urgency of the situation.“Huh? What?” Aiden panicked, turning to Xavier. “No,” he shook his head. “Bethany left Charlie on the porch before she left.”My eyes widened, panic-stricken. “What kind of woman is that? Leaving the baby on the porch?”“Baby? What baby?” Xavier asked, raising his eyebrows at Deborah, then at Aiden.“What baby?” Aiden asked the same question. “No.” He shook his head and crouched on his k
Confession of My Untamed Best Friend Chapter 14 – To Be Honest With Me
(Jessamine’s POV)My bedroom needs renovation.First, it was only Aiden, and now we had to share it with Charlie. My best friend placed the box and the puppy’s bag beside his luggage like they were ready to run together in case our friendship got murky again. Deborah tugged my best friend to join lunch, and in my case, after everything that happened earlier, I got emotionally tired that I only wanted to curl up in bed. Sleep was my therapy because it allowed me to detach my exhausted self from reality. Unless, of course, a nightmare joined me in my dream, like what happened last night.After our short talk, Aiden and I were okay again, but something inside me terrified me. Every time I remembered Bethany kissing him, jealousy was eating my heart. I imagined myself pulling her hair and dragging her out of the porch just for her to stay away from Aiden. But that would be weird.As I cast my mind back to the searing kiss we shared, my body could not stop feeling wild… and hopeful. It te
Confession of My Untamed Best Friend Chapter 15 – Never Level Up
(Jessamine’s POV)The plan was to wait in the living room, but Deborah and Xavier were in their usual seat, looking at a brochure that came along with her mails. They must be considering going on another vacation or workcation since Deborah worked from home half the month and the other half she reported to the office. They raised their heads when they saw me exit my bedroom.“I’ll be in the park,” I muttered lazily, forcing a smile as I motioned my hand that I was going outside.Not waiting for them to answer, I headed to my destination. It was not a park but a garden near the parking space in the apartment. Holly and her husband were nice to set it up with a swing, slides, and monkey bars for tenants with kids. I settled on the wooden bench to hide from the sun. The conical shapes of the Green Giant trees behind the bench blocked the heat and brought great shade to the bench.I smiled, thinking of bringing Charlie here later. He would surely love this place.“Something bothering yo
Confession of My Untamed Best Friend Chapter 16 – Keep Off My Property
(Jessamine’s POV)“Aiden…” I bit my bottom lip, seeing an Adonis stepping out of the bathroom.He halted and met my eyes. “Did you have another nightmare?” He asked worriedly.When I nodded, Aiden advanced to the bed and sat, facing me, instead of walking toward the closet to get his clothes. He didn’t mind that he was not wearing anything except for his boxer brief.I began to cry and threw my arms at him, sliding my arms around his neck. Then I lost myself in him. As our bodies were pressed together, little currents of pleasure rocketed everywhere, and I could not help moaning as he began to play with my fingers and grazed my arm, stopping on my shoulders.I didn’t know what got me. I found myself crawling into his lap and molding my lips to his mouth, kissing him with need and passion. Shivers of excitement coursed through me as his tongue met mine, touching and dancing, almost making me crazy. I felt Aiden smile when I moaned in his mouth, ignoring me when I groaned as his lips le
Confession of My Untamed Best Friend Chapter 17 – Drop Pants, Not Bombs
(Aiden’s POV)Deborah and Xavier exchanged glances, wondering how quiet we were at the dining table during breakfast. At first, I thought she would let this slide, ignoring us, not talking, not even looking at each other.“Hey, Charlie,” Deborah called to the puppy sitting on the rag and biting the edge of the cloth.Charlie stopped playing and looked at her, tilting his head to his side, recognizing her call.“Did something happen last night?” She asked as she lifted her mug.Instead of answering, our puppy returned to what he thought was more interesting, biting the rag. Perhaps even if he could talk, he knew the drill, and that would be not telling Deborah or Xavier what he saw last night. Charlie woke up when Jessamine stepped out of the bedroom and whimpered for a while, sensing something was wrong with us, but when we returned, he curled back into his bed and went back to sleep.“Nothing happened last night,” I muttered.“Something happened last night,” Jessamine sighed, standin
Confession of My Untamed Best Friend Chapter 18 – In My Safe Haven
(Aiden’s POV)Charlie ran to the bathroom door when I unfastened the leash from his collar. He must have sensed Jessamine inside. He wagged his tail and then sat, waiting patiently for her to open the door. She would be pleased to hear that Charlie’s first-morning walk seemed delightful because he had already made friends with some of the tenants’ children playing in the garden.The marketing plan and the research she mentioned earlier were in her bed. I sat on the edge of the bed, scanning the contents and flipping the pages. I glanced over my shoulder, wanting to knock on the door to tell Jessamine her marketing plan was well-written and well-researched.I stood up and walked toward the coffee table, bringing the documents with me and taking my cell phone vibrating in my pocket. I placed the wireless Bluetooth earphone and answered the call immediately while my eyes were still on the paper.“Sasha,” I muttered.“Good evening… Er… good morning?” she greeted in her usual chirpy voice,
Confession of My Untamed Best Friend Chapter 19 – Jessamine Has A Date
(Aiden’s POV)“Yes? You need help with something else?” I asked.My heart pounded hard, hoping she didn’t need my help putting on her clothes. I was running out of control in my system, and if she asked that, I feared I might pull her out of the bathroom and make love with her.A charming smile appeared on her lips as she shook her head. “I just want to say thank you, and I’m sorry.”“It’s okay.” It was not okay.I exited her bedroom and went out again for a walk. With a frown on my face, I felt restless and frustrated with my decision to see Jessamine again after being separated from her for many years. I paced along the pavement to think.Escaping from my extravagant life, reliving my old name, Aiden Anderson, and reuniting with her to help her steer her life’s direction were my reasons for returning to Carterville. I thought it would do me good, but it didn’t. I did not realize I would endanger our friendship by coming back.I missed her so much, and for almost ten years, I ached f
