AVA

I swallow a gulp down my throat. There’s something about his eyes — something that makes my knees feel weak, and it gets under my skin. This is the worst possible time to feel like this. I feel stupid.

I tear my gaze away and glue my eyes to the front, pretending to focus on whatever the professor’s droning about. I can’t hear a single word, but I keep my head forward anyway. Fake it till you make it.

I try to ignore him. I try to ignore the warmth of his hand still resting on my thigh like it's meant to be there. But what’s worse is how my body betrays me, every nerve awake and every inch of me aching under his touch.

“You didn’t text me last night,” Kai whispers beside me, his breath brushing against my ear. “How did it go with your brother?”

How the hell can he sound so calm? So normal? Like he didn’t lie straight to my face.

Every cell in me wants to snap back, to call him out right here and now, but this is class. The last thing I need is to cause a scene. So, not yet. I’ll

    AVAI stare at the watch in my hand like it might bite me. Beautiful and familiar. I’ve seen this thing on his wrist more times than I can count. He never goes anywhere without it. Not even when he's sweating his lungs out on the field.So why the hell would he leave it here? With me?I know he didn’t just forget it. I know he took it off and dropped it on purpose. When did he even do that? How sneaky does someone have to be to do that right under my nose?My fingers tighten around the watch before I set it back on the desk, like it's burning my skin. I nibble on my bottom lip and pick up the folded note. I unfold it with the kind of caution you’d use when you’re disarming a bomb. Because to be honest, that’s exactly what this feels like.His handwriting is scrawled in black ink, messy and rushed, like he couldn’t wait to get it done. I read the note:I don't know how to fix the damage I caused, but I know I don’t want to lose you and I can't stop wanting you.If you ever want to re

    AVAAt this point, I swear he’s just trying to rage bait me and it's enough to make me snap and crash out on him in the damn library. But I won’t give him what he wants. I won’t let him win.I arch a brow, meeting his gaze, refusing to look away even as his eyes pin me down. “And since when do arrogant bastards read?” I shoot back, voice low but sharp.The words slip out before I can stop them, but I don’t regret it. If I can’t yell, at least I can throw a few well aimed insults his way.“Even arrogant bastards can wake up one day and decide to try something new,” Kai shoots back, his tone infuriatingly smooth, like he's not the least bit affected by my jab.I narrow my eyes. “If someone’s arrogant and also a bastard, then maybe the next thing they should try is therapy.”If he thinks he can just show up in my space and act all calm and collected, like he didn’t shatter me two nights ago, then he’s got another thing coming.“Is this how you're supposed to treat someone who’s just here

    AVA “I’m done with him!” I blurt out. The words come out louder and sharper than I intended, and I can feel the weight of every pair of eyes digging into our table. But I don’t give a damn. Let them stare. Let them whisper. Let them start a fucking rumor. I don’t care. Gemma leans closer, clearing her throat. “Do you mind keeping it down a little? They’re starting to look at us,” she utters. I lift a shoulder in a half shrug. “I’m fucking done with him this time. No more last chances. No more waiting for him to fix up,” I murmur, keeping my voice lower this time, but the anger still doesn’t fade. “You’ve said that a million times since we got here,” she says, taking a slow sip of her drink. “Yeah, and I’m saying it again for the last time, with real impact,” I snap. “I am seriously done with him.” Gemma nods for what feels like the hundredth time, it’s the only sane response she can give me at this point. Thank God she’s a good best friend, one who’ll sit through my endle

    KAI I should go after her. I should not let her go. I should stop her and say something. But I don’t. I just sit there in the car, gripping the wheel so tight like it's the only thing holding my soul together. It’s the same feeling all over again — twelve years old, stuck on that couch, watching my parents tear each other apart for the umpteenth time that week and doing nothing. Just sitting there and breaking inside. And now here I am, older, supposedly tougher, but still that same damn kid who is the problem and can't fix anything. I watch Ava run to the front door until she disappears out of my sight. My grip on the wheel loosens, fingers stiff and aching from how hard I've been gripping the wheel. They’re trembling. Pathetic and useless. I clench them into fists and press them hard against my thighs. Screw this. Screw all of it. I reach into the pocket of my leather jacket and pull out a crumpled pack of cigarettes and my lighter. The metal clicks open, the flame fli

    AVA Kai doesn’t even wait for me to answer. His grip on my hand is tight and firm, as he drags me out of the room. He ignores the guys telling me to calm down, to wait. He doesn’t listen to anyone. I can feel the raw anger radiating off him, controlled but intense. He still has the blank look on his face, but I can see how mad he is in the little things. The way his jaw clenched so tight, the firm curl of his fingers around my wrist, the tiny crease between his brows that gave him away. He hauls me through the crowd, past the flashing lights, out of the clubhouse, and finally out of the building. I don’t say a word. What could I even say when he won’t look at me, when he’s like this? I have to give him a moment and let him calm down. I haven’t seen him consumed by rage like this before and it scares me. Outside, the cold night air hits my skin, thanks to the skimpy dress I am putting on. Totally worth it, I guess. He called me “flawless.” With everything that’s going on, I am not s

    AVAHell no.What’s Sasha doing here? Does she really have to show up now?Then it hits me. The first time I came here, she was here too. I remember how she wrapped herself around Kai, pressing kisses all over him, asking if I was his new plaything. Yes, she’s part of his world too.Her hand slips from his neck as she steps in front of him, grinning from ear to ear.My stomach drops. Is she going to kiss him? God, no. I don’t even want to imagine how that’ll feel. Or worse, how it’ll feel if he kisses her back.I heave a quiet sigh of relief when her hands wrap around his neck, pulling him into a hug. Kai doesn’t hug her back, his eyes remain locked on me. Does he think I’ll get pissed if he hugs her back? Well, maybe. But it’s not that deep.Sasha’s his ex girlfriend and they seem pretty cool, too cool for exes, actually. But then again, not everyone ends things the way I did with Luke, with the chaos and dramas.That’s when the questions start spinning in my head.What really happen
