What are your thoughts??
Clara and I looked at each other. I didn’t find her threatening and I didn’t see her as an enemy. I definitely didn’t see her as the rival I once saw her as. Back then she had come to Viktor and asked him to be more. I even remember her saying she was willing to share. At the time, I remember hating her. I felt gutted knowing that someone had offered themselves to Viktor like that.At the time I felt betrayed. I felt hurt. I didn’t want to share Viktor with her and the thought of him possibly saying yes to that frightened me. Now that I look back on it. Wasn’t it hypocritical of me? I didn’t want to share Viktor yet after Clara left we let Jake into our relationship. I felt a tinge of guilt after our earlier conversation. Clara wasn’t wrong. Yet Jake hated her for wanting what he had.Was it jealousy that Jake felt when he saw Clara? Or was it something else? Was it something more? Was it fear that Jake felt when he saw Clara? When I looked at Clara she stared at me as if she knew wha
“What?” I asked.“It’s not my place to say this, but I can’t stay silent about this. Nyx, Jade, and I don’t have anyone. We don’t have someone to call our own and so of course, we don’t have anyone waiting for us. I shouldn’t be so peeved by this but I am. You’ve got not only one but two men who love and adore you. You’ve got one of them going home to wait for you and you’re taking him for granted. I know he’ll be waiting for you… and I think you shouldn’t take that lightly,” Clara said. Before I could say anything she continued. “If I had someone waiting for me I wouldn’t think twice about going home to him. I know you have two of them but you shouldn’t … I wouldn’t… I don’t want to be the reason you keep a man like that waiting.”I swallowed and felt a tinge of guilt at her words. I am lucky. I’m blessed beyond words to have two men who love me. I don’t think I was being cruel to Jake and I don’t see anything wrong with me trying to have some girl time. It’s not something I usually
After a day with the witches, minus Jade, our bellies rumbled and we decided to go to a restaurant. It probably wasn’t the best idea to go under the influence but we had Nyx watching over us. It didn’t matter how many drinks she had she remained unfazed. Eventually we found ourselves sitting at a place called Mirak. It was a simple place with booths set up all over the restaurant. It was a Korean self-serve barbecue place. They gave free sides and placed our meat onto the hot grill built into the middle of the table. We were then given tongs to flip our meat. I wanted chicken and beef but Clara demanded pork belly and Nyx wanted octopus. I was not looking forward to grilling that up. I told her we could cook it after the other meat was ready. Inhaling deeply, the mouthwatering smell of grilled meat had drool dripping down the side of my mouth. When the waitress walked up to our table she dropped a couple bottles of fruit bottles on the table. When I looked up at her with a puzzling l
KacieBAM!I jumped at the sound of it slamming shut harder than I meant to. The element of surprise was no longer on my side after that. If anyone was home they would know that I was here now. I stood still, holding my breath as I listened for movement. Nothing. There wasn’t any movement. I don’t know what I was expecting but I didn’t think I’d come home to an empty house. I lifted my phone, the screen lit up, and confirmed my suspicion. It was late, really late. The sound of the shower alerted me to someone being home. I don’t know if I wanted it to be.Viktor?Jake?The two of them?I had a lot to talk to Jake about but found myself angry. I don’t know why I just was. I walked into the room, huffing as I pulled my outfit off, and threw it to the floor. I was completely nude and wobbled forward. I headed toward the bathroom door. It wasn’t until I tripped that I kicked off my shoes. Reaching for the door I turned it left and right before it opened. Pulling it open, I walked in and f
I held my chin high and didn’t blink. I wasn’t going to back down. He was the one who showed up where he wasn’t supposed to be. I didn’t do anything wrong and I wasn’t going to be made a fool for it. I wasn’t going to lower myself for him when I hadn’t even done anything. If I was wrong I would have admitted that I was wrong, but I wasn’t, so I wouldn’t.“You kissed, are you not going to make up?” Viktor asked.I looked at him to find him leaning back against the shower wall. My eyes darted down to his hand that squeezed his balls. His tip was rod straight and flat against his abs. His chest rose and fell as he looked between the two of us.“We don’t need to make up to fuck, do we, Jake?” I asked. It was meant to come out fierce but came out weak, as if I were winded. Jake smirked as he stared at me.“No, I guess we don’t,” Jake answered.In one swift movement, his hand gripped my thigh and brought it up around his waist. My hands flew to his chest in an attempt to keep myself steady.
Kacie The three of us sat on the bed. None of us had said anything after. We dried off and got ready for bed in silence. Jake was still upset and I was upset that he had followed me and the girls. I was frustrated that he was upset. Viktor sat crossed legged in gray sweats and a tank. His hair was still wet but wasn’t drenched. He lifted a towel and proceeded to dry his hair. My mouth watered as I stared at his biceps. Jake sat at the edge of the bed, his back was to me as he stared off into space. I know we needed to talk but I didn’t know how to start. The space between us kept growing and he kept getting far away. I wanted to reach out and wrap my legs around him but I didn’t want to apologize. I hadn’t done anything wrong and I couldn’t figure out what was going on in his head. I watched as Viktor threw his legs over the edge and stood up. He walked over to the hamper and threw the towel in it. When he turned back to the two of us on the bed he crossed his arms. “Are we going to
Kacie I hear what he’s saying but somehow since the sex in the bathroom. to this moment right now, my hardened heart built a wall around itself. I can’t bring myself to tell him I know that he doesn’t hate me. The words won’t form to tell him that I know he doesn’t look at me any differently now that we know I’m a witch. Is it my own self loathing that’s holding me back? Is it because I can’t accept this change about myself? There has been so many changes, Jake and Viktor have been my rock. They’ve been my one constant in this storm called life. My insecurities and Jake’s insecurities are holding us back and pulling us in the opposite direction of the other. Why can’t I just tell him that he isn’t just my Beta? Shouldn’t he already know that he’s more than a ranked member by now? Shouldn’t he already feel secured in his spot in this relationship? It only makes me angrier. “You’re a good fuck, Jake, but if I have to console you 24/7 and reassure you of your position in my life, will y
KacieYou are overthinking all of this, Kacie.I don’t want to hear it.You are. You’re letting your anger rule you. You know you’re in the wrong here. You could have fixed this, you could have stopped it before it escalated, but you didn’t!Shut up, Athena.Why are you being SO stubborn? You wouldn’t budge the entire time you were talking to Jake. You said some really mean things to him. Why don’t you tell me what’s going on, Kacie?I don’t know what you’re talking about. I stood my ground, Ath.Is that what you did? Because from where I’m standing, you were bullying him. Was it something Clara said? Was it…What?Was it because of what we saw?What did we see, Ath?Whatever it was we saw between Clara and Jake at the club.…Are you jealous?No!You’re jealous.I’m not jealous. Jake is… Jake is mine.Are you sure?Yes.Are you? Because the way you just treated him wasn’t like someone you think of as yours. You treated him like a… what do they call it these days? A side piece. …So I
