Josh's POV

How was I to explain the thoughts which spun in me when I saw her? The flawless look on her face when she saw me had me starstruck for a while.

I wasn't expecting her to come as I had sent the same messages to her countless times letting her know I yearned for her, and would do everything to talk to her, but she hadn't responded.

Color me shocked when I heard a car drive in, I had forced myself, not wanting to believe that she would be the one. There had to be someone else, but she was the only one who knew about this place.

My hands rested by the side of her waist before peering around when she dug her teeth into her lips, her mind a bit hazed, as she asked again;

“ What were you doing there last night, and what car were you in?”

My mind was clogged while I tried to recall which exactly, being with her did that to me, made me forget every single thing I must have intended to say.

“ Can we forget about that for now? There's something I think you should know.”

  • Forbidden desires: In love with my brother's best friend    off the coast

    Max couldn't describe the emotions he had felt when he had been told all of those by the priestess, he had taken it all at a gulp with his hand clenched and as well tried not to be overprotective of her as he used to. Not that he had intentions of stopping it all together, it was just that he had to limit it since it seems she had a difficult life already, and wasn't even supposed to live for herself. If he had been told this, he would have done everything possible just so that she would have gotten her mate that day, he would have ordered the pack on lockdown, and it was to be fully guarded. How was it possible that whoever was the mate had succeeded in getting out leaving them with just two words? Shrubs and an empty car. He let out a puff of air before leaning against the doorframe, he was waiting for them to get in, his father silent as well. He wasn't going to say a word to him because he was pissing him off. He somehow had expected that he would say something, let everyone

  • Forbidden desires: In love with my brother's best friend    Inevitable

    Josh's POV “ Hey man,” it seemed like eternity since I had met Max, or boxed with him and I felt like I could have done that more often if I wasn't occupied with his sister. Lina had tried to get an answer out of me but I couldn't say it. She had left aggrieved but it was better than telling her about my feelings when I wasn't sure she was in love with me yet, that's what I wanted to do, planned to do.I needed her to fall hopelessly in love with me and then I would let her know she was the girl I have always been in love with, and asked her out formally while I hoped the answer would be positive. “ You are late, what exactly have you been up to?” He complained, sliding his hands into the gloves, before throwing a glance at me. “ I had something to do, how is it going with your stuff? Are you done yet?” “ I should be, what about you? You have to do that fast enough so we will be able to get a room, you know we agreed to stay together in college.”“ Yes, we did, but have you thoug

  • Forbidden desires: In love with my brother's best friend    Determined

    Lina's POV Being able to do this without having anything behind my mind was everything that I would have ever wished for, my feet came to a stop just beside the house, and it was the first time I got to notice the greenery which spread out and the tiny path which led to a beach. When Josh had said it wasn't so far, I had not expected this, tiny balloons hung above the air, with soft music permeating the air. I threw a glance over my shoulders where he had a hand underneath his chin, glancing at me like I was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen, or the only one he had ever looked at like that. His eyes lightened up when I saw him, before he leaned closer, wrapping his hands around my shoulders. I took in air, inhaling his scent when his hands strayed. “ Have I told you how beautiful you look? Dressed in my clothes?” “ You haven't, can I hear it?”“ You look astonishing, Lina.” His words dripped into my ears.“ When I think there isn't anyways you can do better than the las

  • Forbidden desires: In love with my brother's best friend    Hoping for too much

    Lina's POV My phone chimed for what was the umpteenth time and I knew I had to glance at it, I knew without even taking a look at it, who exactly it would be that had just texted me and I missed him. He had sent numerous texts letting me know that he missed me and would like to see me, but I found myself thinking countlessly on what we were and what exactly I was to him. I had conflicted feelings, were they supposed to be part of the fake relationship we had? I didn't really know what to think about that. Forcing myself to sit upright, I knew I had to be up and running, but that didn't mean that I had to go to school. It had been four days after my birthday and I had insisted on staying back, because I didn't know what exactly it was I was to do over there. The jeers weren't going to make sense and it would be best if I avoided them while I could. I would have loved to know who it was, all I could say was two words, shrubs and an empty car, but why exactly would anyone do that to

  • Forbidden desires: In love with my brother's best friend    A call

    For Max, there was something which was bothering him that he couldn't bring himself to say. He didn't know how exactly he was supposed to say that, but it was so difficult because it sounded like he was being a fool. That was the last thing he would ever suspect, that Josh was going out with his sister, for one, if it turned out he was going out with his sister, he would have been here at the party, and he wouldn't have wanted to miss it either. But when he got the text, letting him know that he had to confront them, he knew he had to do so. He couldn't risk it. That would break his heart, and the trust he had placed on Josh. He loved Josh like the brother he had never had and really wanted this not to be true. He didn't want anything coming against what they had, but he found himself doing it anyway, asking the one question he thought he wouldn't ask. "I have something to tell you, or rather ask you." He dipped his hand into his pocket, bringing out his phone as he handed it over
