SOAR WITH ME Chapter 153
#Chapter 153 EvelynWarren puts me on the bed and hovers over me the next second. His nose grazes my jawline and his hands move up and down my waist.I press my legs together feeling the heat in my belly grow."How do you want me to fuck you tonight?"My breathing slows down as he peppers my skin with wet kisses that have my toes curling."Like you always do." I whisper as his hand slips under my warmer and runs over my stomach."Get rid of all these clothes." He grumbles and pulls back.In a haste I remove my warmer and then work on my jeans and shoes. Warren is busy getting rid of his suit. Once we're both in our undergarments we stop and stare at each other.We've had sex so many times yet tonight something is different. It feels like we're finally free from the shackles of the past-at least I am.I feel free. There isn't constant sadness and despair weighing on my chest anymore. I forgave Warren for everything but in reality it feels like I'
SOAR WITH ME Chapter 1
#Chapter 1 Evelyn"What? You went without me? Me! I'm your best friend Eve." Ivan protests as he inclines over the pink polka-dot tablecloth stretched over the small table. "That you are, Ivan. The one and only. But in my defense, you were busy running an important errand for your mother, when I was coming to pick you up. I called to ask you. Tell me you remember that?" Ivan hesitantly nods in agreement, clearly annoyed with the fact that he can't blame me. "I couldn't bring myself to interrupt you." His eyes soften momentarily but then squeeze to slits as he crosses his arms over his chest and slumps back into the chair. An image of a young kid throwing a tantrum flashes through my mind. "Mom would have understood. It was a dinosaur exhibition for fuck's sake. She knows I love dinosaurs. I've literally been smitten with them since I was eight. Tyrannosaurus rex is my favorite, and now I might have missed his skeleton." The vehemence of his exasperation reflects when h

#Chapter 2 EvelynIvan and I chat for another twenty minutes. When the waiter appears with the bill. I take it faster than I enter a store offering a seventy percent discount. Ivan isn't impressed by my move and scowls when I use my credit card and leave a tip in cash. Once I finish, we exit the restaurant.Whenever we go out to eat, we fight over the bill like dogs over a bone. Do we make a scene and attract others? Yes. Does that make one of us back down? Absolutely not.Have we stopped fighting in public? Technically, we had to.Last year we went to a sushi restaurant for a celebration dinner. I had hit forty customers whilst Ivan had bought a new BMW i8 after years of drooling over the car—I mean that literally. The guy had been dreaming of it since high school, and when it arrived at his place, the whole neighborhood knew of Ivan Reyes' delirium. He arrived to work in it and took me out on a spin—but he didn't let me drive it. We had a blissful night,
SOAR WITH ME Chapter 3
#Chapter 3 EvelynA sticky surface runs over the left side of my face. In the heat of my comforter, I roll over and try to go back to sleep. Not a second later, two feet plonk over me and something nudges me underneath my jaw, followed by a tongue lapping over my skin."Miles!" Taking refuge under the layer of my comforter I hide from the morning beast.A loud woof pierces through the foggy daze of my sleepiness, and I open my eyes and blink several times. Suddenly I feel multiple paws digging into my body and I throw the cover away and sit up."I don't need an alarm." When I've got you, Miles, I mutter to myself and greet my other best friend in the world.Miles, my three-year-old dog is always next to me no matter what I'm doing. The only time he leaves me alone is when I'm in the bathroom, otherwise, he's onto me all the time. I don't mind that one bit."Good morning Miles." My fingers scratch the side of his neck and he patiently lets me. I stare into his in
SOAR WITH ME Chapter 4
#Chapter 4 EvelynAll it took was one event and my whole perspective on life changed. It was like an undefined force took my world and spun it, shaking everything and everyone around me. By the time my feet hit the ground and gravity gripped me, I had already lost my footing. And none of the forces keeping me balanced were able to put me back on my axis."Look who's here." Ivan drops to his haunches and tickles both sides of Miles's neck. My pet smiles like he's running in a field of butterflies."Good morning to you too Ivan," I grumble. He ignores me and talks to Miles, who relishes in the shadow of Ivan's attention. I greet the handful of people who work with me. As my company is still in the air and getting whispered about in only a few ears, everyone here works part-time. Jessica and Opal are in charge of card design. Jessica is in high school, but as it's summer break, she's in the office every morning and stays till the end of the day. As for Opal, she's a

#Chapter 5 Evelyn"So I've got good news and bad news. Which one do you wanna hear first?" Dread slips through the cracks of my resolve and I have to lean my head against the cold glass for support."Bad news," I say, staring out at the pedestrians to distract myself.I'm sitting in an ice cream shop waiting for my order of two scoops of strawberry flavor with rainbow sprinkles on the top.The sun was in the sky when I left but turns out Seattle's weather is more indecisive than a toddler choosing which toy to play with. Soon gray clouds took over and it drizzled. Luckily I found a guy selling umbrellas right when it started showering and saved my favorite top and denim from getting drenched. The rain had lasted a couple of minutes before disappearing, but the gray clouds are hovering over the city with the promise of torrential rain. "So Opal has decided to resign. She turned in her resignation letter this evening after you left. Which I think was planned. I mean
SOAR WITH ME Chapter 6
#Chapter 6 EvelynI dip my spoon into my slightly melted ice cream and eat a mouthful of it. I savor the cold and sweet taste of it.A cool wind whistles past me and ruffles my hair that I've braided from the front and tied in the back with only two pins. I hope the hair doesn't come loose."Strawberry ice cream with sprinkles on the top. It was your favorite." No. This can't be happening. The happiness swimming in my veins freezes into ice as recognition hits me. My world abruptly stops revolving on its axis. In a second everything inside of me stills like I've been turned into a statue. With the cement creeping up from my toes and stopping at my heart, solidifying everything in the process. Momentarily the soul imprisoned inside my body almost escapes when I hear that familiar voice for the first time in a decade. At a turtle's pace, I glide my eyes up and in front of me stands the very person who first broke my fragile heart, scattered its millions of
SOAR WITH ME Chapter 7
#Chapter 7 EvelynTen years ago, for days I waited for this moment. Hours filled with yearning for him to return to me, and talk to me. I wanted an explanation as to where we went wrong. Only I know how many nights I cried myself to sleep, and woke up with hope only for it to get diminished each time. I wished for him earnestly for weeks, which gradually turned into months and years. Not for once, he reached out. And slowly the possibility of him ever coming to me and talking to me lessened till there was nothing left. Not even an atom. Only a hollow gap in my heart that grew bigger with time instead of shrinking."Can I ask you something?" I have millions of questions to throw his way and see how he bounces back to me with his answers. But I settle for just one in particular."You can ask me anything." The deepness in his voice has developed, and he sounds like a man now. He even looks like a man. The last time I saw him he was eighteen. With a lean body and muscles
