I drag a hand through my hair while preparing coffee, standing inside my kitchen wearing nothing more than sweatpants. I'm half-naked, and while I realize putting on a shirt would be proper, I love the way Daria ogles me whenever I flex the muscles in my chest.
I'm painfully aware that she likes my way more successful brother Wilder, and I keep telling myself that I'm not bothered, but I'm already green with envy.
Women like Daria don't come around very often. When I hit rock bottom two years ago, she was the voice that sent me in the right direction. Daria was my beacon in the night, and she is the sole reason I didn't commit suicide two years ago—I owe her everything.
"Oh, can I have milk in my coffee?" Daria asks from the table. She is playing with the sugar spoon, building these small hills inside the old sugar holder.
"Milk, huh?" I smile to myself, warm from simply glancing her way. The fact that Daria is sitting inside my kitche

Daria I gap at Killian with blinking eyes, whispering. "You were my first crush! The sexy voice on the other side of the confession booth!" Killian snorts and then throws a fit of laughter. He seems massively amused by my statement. "The sexy voice on the other side of the confession booth? And wait, I was your first crush? Really? You weren't into someone famous like the rest of us?" Snorting, I shake my head. "No, you were my first crush! I'm not lying!" "I don't believe you!" Killian's lips are tightly knit in a smile. "You're only saying that to make me happy, and it's working, but I rather not have you lie to me, Daria!" "Killian, I'm not lying to you!" I slap his shoulder in excitement, smiling until I swear my face is about to break from nostalgia. "I used to lie down on my back late at night when the other nuns were sleeping, and then I would remember that sexy voice and touch myself—I came hard every goddamn time!" My words ar

DariaThe first time Killian open his eyes is on a Tuesday. His eyes flit through the room, and I drop a flower vase, staring at him until those familiar eyes once more close.At first, I thought I had imagined it, but the next time Killian opens his eyes, there are doctors there. He can barely talk and open his mouth without a sound coming out.But there is intelligence in Killian's eyes, a type of remembrance, and the doctors tell me he will need to learn how to walk, talk and eat again after so many weeks in a coma.Those words fill me with even more hope because I had it even when he wasn't awake. Now I'm always giddy, and when I'm left alone with Killian, I'm almost bursting from the seams.I take a seat next to his bed, and a small smile curls his lips. His blue eyes scan my face, and I giggle—I'm so bubbly."Good morning," I say, barely able to contain myself. I want to jump the man, plant kisses all over his face. "How are you?

DariaI'm holding Killian's hand. It's been days, and he still hasn't opened up his eyes, but the flowers in his vase are exchanged. I thought yellow daisies would suit him and plucked some from outside."The yellow color makes me happy," I'm speaking, hoping Killian can hear my voice even with his severe head trauma. His room is filled with flowers from various fans, but mine are the ones on the table. "And even though you've received more expensive flowers from your fans and Wilder, I think you would prefer the ones directly taken from the street."I glance down at his long, dark eyelashes, fanned out over his cheeks as he breathes. Without meaning to, I shed a tear but immediately tell myself to brighten up. I squeeze his hand and peer out through the window behind his hospital bed.For days, I've cuddled up to his lifeless body when no one has been watching. My soul misses him, so I talk with him as if he can hear me, not caring if I'm mad. I brush hi
Forbidden Fruit Taste So Sweet Chapter 48
DariaWhen I wake up from surgery, I can tell something is wrong. There is a knot inside my chest that won't go away. No matter how hard I try to tackle my worries away, it's gnawing me alive.Now isn't the first time I open my eyes—I've done it twice already but fallen straight asleep after a few breaths. My limbs are tired and heavy, feeling like they belong to someone above the age of eighty and not a woman still in her early twenties.I glance to my left and right, tilting my head when I'm faced with the hesitant smile of Brooklyn. She doesn't look happy to see me, more like she is sheltering a secret, and now it's evident that something is wrong.My heart pounds against my ribcage, and I suck in a deep breath, asking myself twice if I'm ready to hear the answer to my question. I don't know why, but I think Brooklyn's response will break me from within."What has happened?" I ask her, entirely serious. I'm not wearing a smile or even cele

KillianThe day I've feared for has come, and every minute seems like an entire year.Daria is getting prepared for surgery. There is a heavy cloud hanging low over my head, raining and making the scene seem grey. If anyone can survive this operation, then it's Daria. Yet, I'm still worried and barely slept tonight.I held on to Daria for dear life, holding her close until she eventually fell asleep to the beating of my heart. It was sweet, but I regret not telling her how much I love her.I'm a weakling for not being able to say it. My brain seems to believe losing her won't be as painful if I haven't spoken the words burning at the tip of my tongue.I love her so much.I need her.I want a future with her.Why are those things so hard to put into words?I stare down at the floor, inhaling deeply at my phone acting up again. Ava hasn't left me alone all day. She sold the story about me dating Daria to the media without

DariaMy current state can only be described as pain. It's as if the blood in my veins has been replaced with lead, and every movement leaves me feeling exhausted. My head is a fuzzy cloud of migraine, and every breath that I take seems forced.I'm so tired.My eyelids are extremely heavy, barely open when Killian storms into the hospital. His hair is a pure mess, and his disguise has been thrown out the window. There isn't a fake beard, only his gorgeous face and widened eyes I'm met with—gosh, I want to kiss that face.The first thought that enters my head is "beautiful" because there is no better word to describe the man before me. Inside and out. The man has a heart of gold, and when his arms wrap around me, it gets a little easier to breathe.I love this man so much. Please, god, make him stay by my side. I need him right now, his humor, laughter, and incredible light pouring out from his soul with every octave spoken from his mouth.
