CHLOE

This was right.

I should be glad that Sebastian was taking me to his family. Ok, I’m not going to keep bullshitting myself. I was not happy. The way that he had acted throughout. Wait, that was on me. I was the one who should be more mature about this and appreciative that he was actually doing his best to make me feel better. I was not his responsibility. I had to remember this.

"Come in," a timid voice called out.

I turned to look at Sebastian, but he wasn’t looking at me as we stepped into the house. The maid who had led us in, bowed as she walked away. I was about to move to the couch when he placed a hand on my arm, stopping me.

My eyes sought his in question. "Is there something wrong?"

"No, Chloe," he said softly. "I just want to say that this... I know you said that you can handle things your own. I’m not bringing you here to make things difficult and I’m sorry for how I spoke to you this morning. It’s just I’ve been stressed. I would do better."

I nodded. "I’m sorry, to

    CHLOEHis hands softly caressed my back, as he swayed me on my feet. Sebastian’s blue eyes bored into mine, and it was a miracle that I didn’t get lost in him. This was the first time I was dancing with a man like this, with the light dim, and people looking at us. "Enchanting," he whispered against my cheeks.I closed eyes, as he lifted me off the ground, and I swayed, my fingers biting into his shoulders. When I opened my eyes, he was looking at me with such an intensity that burned me all over. It made me think of the best time, and I never wanted it to end.But, the music suddenly stopped. Softly, he placed me on the floor, and my eyes caught Nathan looking at us, my cheeks flamed red, and unable to meet Sebastian’s gaze, I said, "Please, I need to leave," I whispered."Why? The party just started, Chloe," he pointed out.I slid a stray curl behind my ear. "I just want to leave this place, please. I can’t stay here anymore."His hands touched my arm softly, and he softly led us d

    CHLOEHis green eyes were cold as they looked at me, and I swallowed the lump in my throat. I tried to take a step back, but there was nowhere to go, and I could only dig my hand into the shelf."Why are you here, Nathan?" I asked slowly.His cold eyes zeroed in on me. "What do you think?"I think you are full of crap, and you ruined my life, but I won’t let you ruin my night. That should be what I should tell the bastard, but I was too uptight and scared. I had to get out of here for my own sanity. I couldn’t be with someone who caused me so much pain. It wasn’t right. I had to flee.My legs moved, catching the thoughts of my brain, but I couldn’t go far, as Nathan’s hand gripped my arm like a vice, pulling me to a stop. Oh, God! Why did I have to come to this place on my own? I should have looked for Sebastian instead."I’m not done talking, Chloe," he said icily.And, just like that, he swung me backward, causing my back to hit the wash table with a thud. I swallowed my groan of pai

    CHLOEI looked at Sebastian anxiously, hating that I was the reason he was forced to tolerate his mother’s rudeness. I should have kept my feelings in check, and not try to compare him with Nathan at every chance I got. Now, I was the one paying for the price.To my amazement, he pulled me closer to himself, and glared right at his mother. "If Chloe is not allowed to be here, then, I see no reason why I should stay here.""What are you saying?" She hissed in frustration. "You know that was not what I meant."The soft tap of Sebastian’s hand against my hip, caused me to look at his clean face. "My love, shall we go in?" He asked instead.I nodded softy, slightly disoriented that he would call me something so intimate. Sebastian sidestepped his mother, and walked right into the heart of the party. Some of these people I have seen them at work, but to be able to dine with them is the privilege that has not been given to me."They look so good together," one of the ladies chirped close to

    CHLOE I have been standing in front of the black oak window for about thirty minutes, wondering if I should go down or not. My fingers softly interlocked together, and my jaw ticked the more I stared at my reflection. This was not... "Ma’am? Are you in there?" Mrs Craig queried. I swallowed the lump in my throat, as I took a deep breath. "I would be down soon," I managed in a voice that sounded like sandpaper. There was a pause. "Ok, I would tell the boss that, but he told me to inform you to come down in five minutes. He is anxious," she explained. "I would be there," I said more firmly. Why did I have to make Sebastian take me to this event? Nathan would be there, and only God knows what he would do. I shouldn’t have opened my big mouth, but what could I do now? Nothing! This was what I wanted and I can’t make Sebastian take back his word since he had called his mother that he would be there. The short time I spent with him, I have realised that he was a man that kept his wor

    CHLOE"Wait," I heard my own voice, sounding so hurt.Since, Nathan’s betrayal, I didn’t think that something would hurt me like this. But, when Nathan had said that Sebastian didn’t invite me to the family party because he was embarrassed by me, something had shifted inside me, and no matter how hard I tried, I just couldn’t move past it.Sebastian turned, his hand sliding off the banister as he looked at me. "What is it Chloe?" He asked in that calm way of his.Normally, I would have felt an ease that came with his words, but not this time. Instead, it felt like there was an invisible noose around my neck that was restricting my breathing. I looked at him calmly as I said, "Can you explain why you didn’t tell me that you were invited to the event when you came home the other day?"He sighed. "Chloe...""Please, tell me the truth. I know you have said a lot about how this marriage doesn’t hurt you, and how you wish to protect me, but this is an event that means a lot to you. You sh
