Alessandra's POV.

“We’re here" Stella says.

I blink finally registering my environment... Killian’s place.

“Thanks so much… I’ll see you soon.”

I grab the door handle about to step out when it hits me.

Wait

Killian’s place.

Why are we at Killian’s place?

I turn slowly to look at Stella. She’s glued to her phone again, thumbs moving fast. She’s been doing that a lot lately

“Why would you drop me off here?” I asked, trying to keep my voice calm but it still came out tight.

She doesn’t even glance up “Don’t you live here"

Not a question. A statement.

That pulls the air right out of my lungs.

Stella finally looks at me her expression unreadable.....until she gives me a look......that look. saying she’s known for a while.

My mouth opens but nothing comes out. I search for a reply an excuse, anything.....

“When did you know?” I manage.

She shrugs“I had my suspicions have you seen the way he looks at you in every room?”

I looked away from her

  • Ruin Me: Falling for My Best Friend’s Fiancée   Fifty Six- Beyond Crush or Like

    Alessandra's POV “Shit” I breathed “Killian, you’re bleeding.” He didn’t move. Didn’t even look at the glass in his hand. His eyes stayed locked on me his left eye twitching. but I ignored his question and went straight for the first aid box. Because if I told him... if I told him his best friend did it—what were the chances he'd believe me? What if he looked at me like I was overreacting, like I was dramatic, like I was stupid? I couldn’t take that. Not from him. So I sucked in a breath and reached for the cupboard. But before I could get there, Killian was in front of me. He turned me around fast, his hands gripping my arms too tightly when I winced he let go immediately. His voice was low, rough. “Don’t ignore me. Who did this to you?” The intensity in his eyes was almost too much. It made my knees weak. I looked at him, really looked at him, and whispered, “It was Jeremy. I don’t know what the hell happened in his head...” I didn’t get to finish. Kil

    Alessandra's POV Once I got in the bathroom I took deep breaths trying to steady my breathing....mtrying to think. And then someone grabbed me. My back hit the wall with a dull thud. I looked up to see Jeremy He caged me in, arms braced on either side, standing far too close “Jeremy, what are.....” He pressed a finger to my lips. What the fuck? “I didn’t think you’d want to finish this here,” he said, voice low, like it was something secret something we shared. “I knew you’d come around eventually.” Wait ..... What? Before I could get a word in, his mouth crashed into mine. I froze, then shoved at his chest, but it was like trying to move a wall. He didn’t budge. His lips left mine and moved to my neck. “Jeremy stop it.” It came out too soft barely above a whisper. But I knew he heard me. He didn’t stop. “Jeremy. Stop it.” My voice rose that time. Firmer. Shaken. He didn’t listen. His fingers were at the button of my pants, fumbling like he had

    Alessandra's POV I finally decided to read Mom’s journal—mostly because her death anniversary is coming up. It’ll be the first one I’ve attended in years. I don’t even know if Dad has anything planned… not that he’d involve me. But I’ll be there, standing in the corner, playing my part.....I have to Still, I need backup. I roll over in bed, grab my phone and dial the one person who always picks up. He answers on the first ring "Hi, Bean." "Hi… Uncle. You’re not still mad at me, right? I’m sorry about that day." "It’s fine, Bean" he said voice soft "Like I told you.....you're no one’s toy." I hesitated, then asked "So… would you be in Italy any time soon?" "Translation: will I be at your mother’s death anniversary?" he said, already reading me like a book. "The answer to that would be no. as much as I’d love to be there for my girls, I’ve got a company to run and I have to make sure Liam doesn’t run it into the ground." We both chuckled. "And more importantly,"

    Killian 's POV "Aren’t you guys married? Why... just why? And haven’t you been married for like twenty years?....is this necessary" I said, staring at Ronan and Lia, who had clearly just finished having sex and in the hospital no less . Her hair was a mess and Ronan was helping her with her zipper. If I’d walked in here a minute earlier, I would’ve needed therapy. "Twenty-five years," Ronan corrected, like that explained anything. "What are you doing here?" "Being your designated cock blocker " I replied, dropping onto the couch like I owned the place. Lia rolled her eyes, then looked behind me. "Where’s your brother? .....Where’s Jeremy? I asked both of you to be here." "He’s on his way," I said, stretching out and getting comfortable. Ronan had passed out last night and given that he’d already battled cancer once upon a time , Lia took his health a hell of a lot more seriously than he ever did. So when he collapsed again, it didn’t take much convincing for Jeremy and m

    Alessandra's POV Last night was… well I don’t know how to feel about last night. Honestly, I really don’t and maybe I don’t even want to know. After the texting and his refusal to help me look for my ring, his phone rang—and just like that, he left. Literally stepped away from between my thighs, told me to go to bed like I was some kid with a bedtime and walked out. I don’t know when he came back. I must’ve been asleep. But I did see him this morning. Well... see is a generous word. Gawked. Stared. Maybe even drooled a little. Take your pick. He was working out in the courtyard like he had all the tension in the world to burn off. Shirt off. Muscles flexing like they knew what they were doing. And me? I was standing behind the blinds like a creep with a front-row seat and no shame. I didn’t have any plans today—for now at least. Killian left the house not long after his workout. It was almost two o’clock and if he went for a Brotherhood meeting.... he would be back
