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 hear

  • Forbidden obsession ; She’ll be the death of me    Chapter 93: Need her.

    ZANE’s POV. The party downstairs was loud and crazy, and it was only 8 p.m. I’d left the sitting room with the excuse that I needed to get some bed rest because my head was banging furiously. I’d taken some painkillers, but they did nothing to soothe the ache. I just lay back on my bed, my fingers fiddling with the sheets as I tried to close my eyes, when the noise in the hallway apparently increased.“Jaxon… you fine in there?” It sounded like the rookie from the team. He wasn’t alone, though. I could hear Brittany and some other girl’s muffled voices.“Yes.” I didn’t think he’d believe me, considering how hoarse my voice sounded.“Right. Yh, well, Brittany is here if you care to get out of your head and have some fun.”Have fun. The words felt familiar, like something I’d been doing before, but there had never been any fun in it. I’d probably deceived myself all those times.“Zane… I’m here if you need to relax.” Brittany’s chirping voice came through, followed by a slight knock on

  • Forbidden obsession ; She’ll be the death of me    Chapter 92: His walls.

    ALESSIA’s POV. I still stared at the message, reading it twice, as though I was trying to understand its meaning, when all it did was crush a part of me I thought I’d finally gotten over.Was he really serious?What the hell did he actually take me for?I was still staring at my phone when someone knocked on the passenger-side window.I looked up, quickly wiping my cheeks with the back of my hand.Kendra.I unlocked the car, and she immediately pulled the door open.“Darling,” she drawled, pouting as she wiped my tears with her index finger. “Come on, what happened now? You were all happy before you left home.”Just thinking about it again made tears fall from my eyes. Was I ever going to be okay? Was I ever going to stop crying?“Zane. Fuck, Kendra, I’m getting fed up with that man. I feel like strangling him in his sleep.” I said, demonstrating with my hands as though I could already feel his neck.Kendra laughed. “You love him too much to do that. What did he do this time around?”

  • Forbidden obsession ; She’ll be the death of me    Chapter 91: You’ll still taste me.

    ALESSIA’s POV. God, where did I get such strength to say that? My insides burned and boiled in alarm, like something was wrong. I’d just rejected the guy I loved, especially when he’d said something I’d been dying to hear from him. I peered up at him through my lashes, and his reaction made me feel like someone had punctured a hole through my heart and was squeezing it aggressively. He looked destroyed, like he’d just told me he loved me and I’d looked him in the eye and said I didn’t want him back.My palms were so sweaty that I had to shove them into my pockets so I wouldn’t cradle his face and tell him I didn’t mean it. Because I did. At least, a part of me did—but he didn’t have the right to wake up one morning and decide he wanted me back, not after seeing me with Caleb and probably getting his ego bruised.Fuck. I didn’t know what to think anymore.Could he stop looking at me like that?“Christ—I didn’t see that coming,” he rasped, looking towards the bright rays of sunlight wi

  • Forbidden obsession ; She’ll be the death of me    Chapter 90: Desperately in love.

    ZANE’s POV. The locker room suddenly went quiet the moment I stepped inside. You wouldn’t believe these were the same idiots who’d been making enough noise to wake the dead just seconds ago. I could hear them chanting from halfway down the corridor.They suddenly looked busy, like they were interested in things that apparently made no sense. I glanced around the room, my curious gaze pinning every one of them. I wasn’t an idiot, though. I’d clearly heard their conversation before I entered the room. A little eavesdropping wouldn’t hurt—except this time around, it almost killed me.“I’m telling you, those two are definitely a thing,” someone said from the other side of the room.“Caleb West and Alessia Bennett?” another guy asked, sounding almost too excited about it.“Who else? Have you seen the pictures? The way she was sitting on his lap? And that kiss at the party?”My fingers curled around the strap of my sports bag.“Apparently, they’ve been spending a lot of time together, too.

  • Forbidden obsession ; She’ll be the death of me    Chapter 89: Wrong kiss.

    ALESSIA’s POV. The words landed like a quiet explosion.I sat frozen in the passenger seat, still replaying the three words like they’d personally given me a heart attack. The faint scent of the candles suddenly seemed too sweet, and the scattered petals on the dashboard looked almost ridiculous under the soft afternoon light.Caleb’s voice hung in the air between us, warm and certain, yet somehow like a disaster I knew I’d caused. Because exactly what was I thinking when I let him kiss me like that or hold my hand like it meant something more than temporary comfort?I forced my fingers to unclench from the edge of the seat.“Caleb…” My voice came out thinner than I wanted. I turned my head just enough to look at him, and the soft hope in his eyes made the guilt sit heavier in my chest. “I… I don’t know what to say.”He gave a small, almost self-conscious smile, the kind that tried to make the moment lighter than it was. “You don’t have to say it back. I just… needed you to know.”Th

  • Forbidden obsession ; She’ll be the death of me    Chapter 88: Worth fighting for?

    ALESSIA’s POV. “Oh, oh—oh-oh, girl!” Kendra’s panicked voice called from the stairs. I heard her take the stairs two at a time as I dressed up for a date with Caleb. Not that it was exactly a date, though… I mentally slapped myself as I tried to convince myself otherwise. He had only said he was taking me to the biggest library in town, and I didn’t know what had ever excited me more than that.“What’s the shout all about?” I asked, placing my hands on my hips and furrowing my brows as I struggled to catch my breath.“Zane!”I thought I’d forgotten how to react whenever I heard his name, especially in that tone from Kendra. All that came to me was a series of shockwaves.“What about him?” I asked, suddenly panicked, wondering if something terrible had happened to him. But I shouldn’t feel that way, right? Not when I was just planning a date with someone else.“He’s downstairs.”Fucking bomb. I thought I hadn’t heard her properly. I blinked and looked at her again, but her expression
