The next morning Evangel woke up in a normal mood, not happy, not sad. Her deposition this morning was her normal morning attitude. She scrubbed her eyes gently as she sat up on her bed. For a brief suspended moment in the universe her mind was clear without the initial worries, and undecided decisions she went to bed with, and then they all came flooding back tilting her mood to one of agitation and restlessness. A weary sigh left her lips in a slow languorous manner as her mind reminded her of what awaited her on this bright and beautiful new day. To find a girlfriend for her father's dinner before it is six pm today. The sun didn't mind her worsening mood and continued to glow like the king he is. Evangel got from the bed and made her way towards the kitchen feeling a little bit drowsy. She needed her morning coffee to really feel awake. She drew up short when she saw her best friend already in the kitchen drinking her coffee while she worked on her laptop. Clarissa was a childr
I CAN'T MARRY THIS BASTARD Chapter nineteen: who are you imagining kissing?
Evangel didn't know whether to be embarrassed or laugh at the comical look of disbelief on Clarissa's face. She didn't know whether the blonde is shocked that she has been with a girl before or that she didn't know about it. Probably both. Evangel hadn't told her because the whole experience had been a total disaster and not worth mentioning ever. " I don't think I have ever shocked you this speechless before, " Evangel teased when her best friend continued to gape at her without saying a word. Clarissa being an extrovert and outgoing was the more adventurous one of them. She is willing to try anything, and Evangel can't believe she never experimented on girls. Clarissa blinked severally to release her body from its frozen immobility. She didn't know why she is so shocked at Eva's revelation. Maybe because she has always perceived her best friend as goody two shoes. The brunette wouldn't even smoke pot or drink beer at parties and here she is revealing that she has rubbed tonsils wi

After their breakfast, Trent walked Veronica over to the door. " It was a great night, " he told her with a smug grin on his lips leaning his slender frame against the door. " It was, wasn't it, " Veronica replied in the same tone leering at him. A look Trent understood too well. " A repeat performance, say tomorrow? " he asked with a knowing grin. Despite the smart caution his brain was telling him to take, Trent found himself diving more into the fire. He couldn't resist the woman in front of him. The thought of their bedroom activities last night lit a fire in him filling him with a great hunger to have another go at it. " What about Evangel, " the party pooper asked. " Who? " Trent teased back and the little small voice in his mind scoffed at his childishness. " Why not tonight, after dinner with Evangel, " Veronica suggested with a sly glint in her eyes. She would take joy fucking the man her cousin intends to marry after he sees her. Trent's brow shot up to his forehead a

" Breakfast is ready, " Clarissa told Evangel setting down the plate of eggs and bacon on the table and heading off to the fridge to get some juice to go with their breakfast. " Thanks, " Evangel looked up from the laptop towards Clarissa, who stood by the fridge with her apron rooting around inside, and the domesticity of the scene hit her like a slug causing a weird feeling to feel her. What if it was real? Clarissa as her girlfriend, making breakfast for them. A smile appeared on her face at the thought. It wasn't a bad thought. " What is funny? "Evangel jumped at Clarissa's voice then trembled to shake off her smile. " What smile? " she looked innocent but her smile wouldn't stop pulling at her lips. Being with her best friend like this made her happy. Clarissa shook her head at her attempt to play coy even as she was still smiling. " That smile, " she pointed towards Evangel's lips. Evangel quickly wiped her mouth, like a kid caught stealing from the pot and wants to

His friends had joked and teased him about it and he had preened under their attention but when all that was gone and they became serious. They tried to warn him that his game could backfire fire but Trace had waved their concerns away. How could it? He will make sure that the two women don't meet. And he will keep stringing Veronica along while trying to woo Evangel. He had done it before with the brunette and he could do it again.He whistled in excitement as he drove towards his house.

Trent was the last man on earth she will ever want to marry. Maybe telling her father what kind of a man Trent is will cure this madness of making him a son-in-law.

" he called The older butler magically puffed up at the sound of his master's voice. " You called sir, " Castro answered as he made his way into the living room from the kitchen, giving his master a curious glance. " Someone is at the door, " Steven told him with a frown trying to
