Dirty Little Secrets CHAPTER 48.
KINGSLEY'S POVI drove recklessly down the slick, rain-soaked streets. Night had already fallen, and the sky was heavy with water. My phone buzzed continuously on the passenger seat. Clyde’s name flashing on the screen over and over. But I didn't have time to answer. I had only one goal tonight: stop the operation before it was too late.By the time I pulled into the driveway, the house was completely dark."Summer!" I yelled, slamming the front door shut behind me. There was no response, instead the eerie silence hit my face."Summer!" I shouted again, pacing deeper into the hallway and searching the shadowy rooms."Kingsley... no one is here. They all left."My mother’s voice stopped me cold. I turned to see her standing near the kitchen entrance, still wearing her apron."They left?" I asked, trying to keep the panic out of my voice. "How long ago?""Maybe an hour." She frowned, thinking it over. "I'm not entirely sure, but it's been a while. They tried calling you first, to let yo

CLYDE'S POVGabrielle had texted me that morning asking if I could still come over for the assignment, followed almost immediately by a second text admitting she wasn't feeling great. I told her I'd bring notes and check on her either way.Her house was very eerily quiet when I arrived, the kind of quiet that made the whole place feel bigger than it was."You didn't have to come," she said, opening the door in an oversized sweater, looking pale but steady enough. "I could've managed the notes over text.""I wanted to make sure you were actually eating something." I held up the bag in my hand. "I also brought soup. Do not argue." I said, giving her no room for any argument.She rolled her eyes, but the corner of her mouth lifted anyway. "Fine. Come in."We worked through the assignment at her kitchen table for almost an hour, the conversation were so easy in a way that made the rest of the week feel distant. I excused myself to the restroom somewhere in the middle of it, and that was w
Dirty Little Secrets CHAPTER 46.
KINGSLEY'S POVThe living room had turned lively again by the time I made my way back downstairs — Felix cracking jokes, George actually laughing at one of them, Summer curled into the corner of the couch with something almost like peace on her face. I stood in the doorway for a second just watching them, and something about the sight made my chest tighten instead of settle.I couldn't sit still. Not with everything Roberts had said still looping through my head, not with the weight of that unfinished building pressing down on me like it had unfinished business of its own.I went back to my room, grabbed my keys, and came back down before I could talk myself out of it."I'm heading out," I said, aiming for casual and missing by a mile."Out where?" My mother's voice cut through the room instantly, sharp with the particular suspicion only mothers seem to master. Every conversation in the room stopped. Every eye turned to me."The Dean called. Wants to see me about something." The lie c

SUMMER'S POV"Kingsley..." His name came out barely above a whisper.He leaned in, slow enough that I could have stopped it, slow enough that some small, honest part of me didn't want to. His forehead nearly touched mine, his breath warm against my skin, close enough that the space between us felt like the only thing left in the room."Summer..." He said, low, rough at the edges. "Tell me to stop, and I will."I didn't say anything. I couldn't. My hands had found the front of his shirt without permission from the rest of me, holding on instead of pushing away.The door swung open.We broke apart so fast I nearly stumbled backward into the chair, heat flooding my face as we both turned toward the sound.It was Eleanor, another plate balanced in her hands, eyebrows raised at the sight of us standing a full room's width apart, breathless, guilty as anything."I brought more cookies," she said slowly, glancing betwe

SUMMER'S POV.The rest of the day went by so fast. George and Felix took Clyde out to relieve his tension. I and Kingsley decided to go over to his house to see his mother and also practice for the Orientation Showcase."Summer!" Eleanor said immediately she saw me. She was very excited. She now looks agile unlike the last time we met at the hospital. She pulled me into a big, tight hug. "How are you?""I'm very fine." I smiled. " How are you too? You now look better than before.""No more tension again." She smiled. "I hope you gave what I said a thought?" She held me hands and patted it gently. Kingsley's eyes went back and forth. I simply nodded. "I will leave you two to talk." She said and went back to the kitchen. I and Kingsley then went upstairs."Come in." Kingsley signalled to me, to enter his room like it was my first time.Nothing really changed. It was still the same as the night he saved me. I sat down on the chair close the his bed.Kingsley sat on his bed, picked up hi
Dirty Little Secrets CHAPTER 43.
KINGSLEY'S POV I saw his hand close around her throat before my brain fully processed what I was looking at. Everything after that happened too fast and too slow at the same time. George was already moving, and I was right behind him, shoving through the crowd like they were nothing but air. By the time we reached them, Summer's face had gone the wrong color, her fingers clawing uselessly at Roberts' wrist. I didn't think. I just swung. My fist connected with his jaw hard enough to send him stumbling back, his grip finally tearing loose from Summer's throat. He hit the floor a few feet away, sprawled against an overturned chair, blood already welling at the corner of his mouth. Dira stood frozen for exactly one second before she turned and bolted, disappearing through the crowd and out the front doors like the building had caught fire. "Summe

SUMMER'S POV The rest of the week went by so fast. I had to give George a detailed explanation of how I ended up in a stranger's bed. He would not stop budging me until I had explained myself. We promised to keep it a secret from Clyde. He would go overboard about it.George has been my best frien

SUMMER'S POV I gradually woke up, but yet again in a strange but comforting apartment. I stood up slowly, trying not to a make a sound-my head still throbbing seriously. The air felt so fresh, as I sighed in relief.I began to feed to my eyes. The house was magnificent: high ceilings, soft recesse
Dirty Little Secrets 2
SUMMER'S POV I slowly woke up, also trying to fight the throbbing headache I was feeling. "Where the hell am I?" I thought. The place smelt like woods mixed with cigarettes, and another thing that smelt like lavender. "What a weird combination." I thought. I woke up fully, and observed where I w

SUMMER'S POV I arrived at the club very late. I knew I was going to be scolded by Mr Noel, the club manager, but I cared less. Life was already hard enough for me. I clutched my bag, so tightly like my depended on it. Because my life really depended on it. I walked in, slowly. The club reeked
