Forbidden obsession ; She’ll be the death of me Chapter 59: His world.
ALESSIA’s POV. I thought I’d heard wrong from Vanessa, but reality dawned on me when she was actually dragging me towards the starting line.“I’ve not been behind a wheel in like forever,” I protested when we stopped somewhere unrecognizable.“But you know how to drive?” she asked with all eagerness.“Yes. Had a driver’s license when I was seventeen,” I replied, feeling awkward and anxious.“Relax. The road is straight. Just try not to get into another car’s lane and you’re good to go,” she replied, waving her hands.I gulped hard.“I don’t have a car,” I replied, and she grinned mischievously.“You’re Zane Jaxon’s girlfriend. Of course you’ll use his car.”My eyes widened, and I quickly searched for him. When I didn’t see him, I looked back at Vanessa.“No, no, no. He’s going to be really upset,” I said in horror. I didn’t want to complicate things between us at the moment. What was bad was I was already going in the race. What was worse was using his car. Fucking no.“That makes tw
Forbidden obsession ; She’ll be the death of me Chapter 58: The other side.
ALESSIA’s POV. The first thing I noticed was his voice.“My girlfriend.”It shouldn’t have made my chest tighten.Not after everything we’d been through. Not after the countless times he’d called me that like it was the most natural thing in the world.But standing there under the harsh lights of the Blacktop, with the smell of gasoline and smoke hanging in the air, hearing him introduce me to the red-haired girl beside him made everything feel different.I stared at him.Zane stared back.For a few seconds, neither of us moved.Then Kendra’s fingers tightened around my arm. “Definitely looks worse in person,” she said, and I swallowed and looked at her, then back at the redhead. She looked better in person. More beautiful. The kind of girl Zane should actually be seen with. Not a pathetic girl like me who always bothered him.My heart clenched as I looked around them. Drinks and cigarettes were littered across the car hood. I didn’t think I’d actually meet him smiling and happy. I m
Forbidden obsession ; She’ll be the death of me Chapter 57: Out of sight.
ZANE’s POV. I stared at my phone when Alessia’s next text came in. Apparently, she almost didn’t read my mood through the text, or she liked pretending there was nothing wrong with me when, in real terms, everything was fucking wrong with me.LESSY: What are you doing?What was I doing? Lying on my bed, thinking about how big of a mess I was in. I sighed and walked to the window to light a cigarette.ME: Practice. Why?LESSY: Are you coming over later?I wanted to say yes. Because it had been fucking long since we spent time together, but my fingers had a mind of their own.ME: Busy with stuff.I replied, and three dots popped up by the corner, then disappeared again for like five minutes. I waited, and when nothing came in, I threw my phone on the bed and inhaled from the cigarette.Her text came in as I came out of the bathroom.LESSY: Okay. Have a good day.Her message tugged at my chest, and I couldn’t understand why that simple message carried so much meaning. I sighed, turned o
Forbidden obsession ; She’ll be the death of me Chapter 56: Growing distance.
ALESSIA’s POV. It’s been two days since I ended the fucking call on Zane, but he still acted like he wasn’t the least bit bothered or, as usual, I was overreacting. He didn’t call after that. Which pissed me off so badly that I wanted to walk to his house and smack his head against a flower vase.I sighed as I turned on the bed, facing up and looking at the ceiling. This stuff with Zane had been a big roller coaster since we started. It was crazy with the on and off, and I didn’t think my heart was made for that. He was probably tired. The race had been a big deal to him. Maybe I was making something out of nothing.I scoffed. Tired. For two fucking days. That wasn’t tired, it was distance. Kendra would have said I should call him, but fuck it. I ended the call on an angry note, and he knew fucking well I was pissed. He probably just didn’t want to call.My laptop made a sound, and I quickly stood to check it. My senior editor.An assignment for the university paper. I groaned becaus
Forbidden obsession ; She’ll be the death of me Chapter 55: Old habits.
ZANE’s POV. “We’re going to the Blacktop tonight,” Mason said the minute he stepped into the house and threw his bag on the couch beside me.Jace followed behind him, dangling his keys and smiling widely at me.“Come on. You coming or what? It’s been fucking long and the guys over there miss you.” Mason tried to convince me, and Jace snickered.“Guys or girls?” the idiot said, and I sneered at him.“He has a fucking girlfriend, Jace,” Mason reminded him, but I could also detect the humour in his tone, and I just laughed.The Blacktop was an abandoned industrial stretch of an old road outside campus. It was like a fucking hour to get there, and it was somewhat famous for the illegal races that happened at night. Something Jace and I were incredibly fucking part of. And Mason? Just there to cheer us on.And they were right. Ever since Alessia, I hadn’t even thought about the place.“So? Don’t keep us waiting. Besides, there’s a high stake on the money tonight,” Jace said, and I raised
Forbidden obsession ; She’ll be the death of me Chapter 54: Compromising.
ALESSIA’s POV. I thought I didn’t hear right, but the look on his face told me enough that he hadn’t even said it jokingly. I stayed quiet for a while. I had a lot of fucking things to say to ease the tension between us, but I didn’t because I suddenly realized he meant it.He wanted marriage. Maybe not marriage exactly, but something else in the future. He was either scared of it or he just didn’t like the idea. I sighed because there was more to him than he let me see. The more I thought I understood him, the more he made it hard for me not to doubt myself again.I smiled. “So just to be clear, you want to marry me, but the thought of it makes you miserable?” I asked with a little chuckle and shook my head. He gave me that look that said he didn’t find it funny at all.I snorted and stopped myself from rolling my eyes. So much for trying to ease the mood.“You really love my surname that much, huh?” he asked with a cocky smirk, and I frowned at him.“Who the hell do you think you a
