Raven fingers the tiny scar on her neck, where the bottle had barely grazed her, staring at the empty board in class, waiting for her professor to come. When Draco grabbed her hands, the look in his eyes made her think he was really going to drive the bottle into her neck and kill her.

His death was too abrupt and too much of a shock that she forgot this man rejected her, only the night before his death. She mourned him for so long that time has polished him perfectly in her memory again.

He might be back, but her Draco is forever gone.

The lab door tilts open but instead of professor McCall, it’s his assistant, Linda, who steps in, her black leather skirt clinging to her deviously and above it a white inner top and a black jacket.

“Class is cancelled for today and Raven, the professor, wants to see you in his private lab immediately,” she says in an air of finiteness and walks back out of the lab.

Raven frowns, ignoring the groans and murmurs of some of her classmates. It’s not the

  • Till Death Do Us Apart   Chapter 74

    Raven settles into the passenger seat of Royce’s car, still not quite believing she agreed to be his date to some fancy party, but here she is.Royce, though, looks genuinely pleased as he starts the engine, a smile spreading across his face."I'm glad you agreed to be my date. But before the party, you need a makeover.""A makeover?" She frowns at him, suddenly feeling self-conscious."What's wrong with how I look?""Nothing's wrong with you," he says quickly, and she can hear the sincerity in his voice."But this is a high-end event. We're talking about the mayor, city council members, business owners. You need to look the part."Raven looks down at her worn jeans and plain sweater, suddenly feeling inadequate."So what are you saying exactly?""I'm saying we ditch school today. Forget about the lab, forget about everything else for now. Today is about getting you ready for tonight," he explains as he navigates through traffic.She opens her mouth to protest, she should be working o

    Like Royce instructed, Raven strips and gets into the bath, exhaling loudly as the warm water hugs her skin.She sits in there a while, soaking and allowing the water to loosen the tension in her body.It is only when the water goes cold and she starts to feel her skin wrinkle that she finally steps out, pulling the drain.She wraps herself in a large soft towel and pads to the room, her feet hitting the floors with a dull thud.She stops at the sight of a robe already laid out on the bed and walks toward it, unfurling the towel and shrugging the robe on.There is a covered tray on the bedside table and she makes her way over to it, already inhaling the aroma before she sees the food.As always, Royce is doing all the right things even while he's mad at her.During her bath, she had had time to think and came to the realization that he must be mad at her because she went off with Draco.He probably found out somehow, the same way he had known she was at the station without her calling

  • Till Death Do Us Apart   Chapter 72

    Raven watches, mouth agape, as Draco speeds off on the motorcycle, leaving her on the deserted road next to his car.What just happened?Her eyes fill up with tears as she registers the situation.After almost bleeding out in her arms, Draco had left her here to run off to another woman while he was still losing blood.After everything they had just been through together? Even in his critical condition, he is more concerned about Carla. That much is obvious. She blinks her eyes dry, trying to force her tears back and lets out a shaky breath.It’s no use as it does nothing to stop the new rush of tears.She crumbles at the side of the car. This feels like a cruel play of fate. Draco keeps pulling her here and there and hurting her even more every time.As if things were not already bad enough, her ears prick to the sound of police sirens, and seconds later, a couple of police cars surround her car.“This is the police! Stand slowly and raise your hands above your head!”Raven is startl

    “What the hell—” Raven's scream is cut off by another gunshot plus a louder bang on the car.Then another, and another.“We need to get out of here. Those men are after me. They are from a drug operation we burst recently,” Draco exclaims, igniting the car and pushing the gear into place.Raven’s heart thuds frantically in her chest, getting faster with every bullet that hits the car.“What?”“It’s part of the things I wanted to discuss with you.”Draco tears through the street, swerving sharply into a backstreet, and Raven eyes the rearview for the attacker.A black car is right on their tail, nearing them by the second.“They’re going to catch up soon,” she tells Draco fearfully.He glances at the mirror, seeing the same thing she does, and steps on the gas, going even faster.Another bullet hits the car, shattering the side mirror on the driver’s side, and Raven lets out a loud shriek.“Shit, we have to do something,” Draco growls beside her, going impossibly faster as the car twis

    “Raven, wait.” Draco starts calmly, holding her in place with a hand on her shoulder.“Let go of me,” she scowls immediately, jerking her shoulders roughly to loosen his grip.“Just listen—” he tries again.Raven does not give him a chance to speak, cutting him off abruptly.“I don't care what you have to say, just let me go.” she snaps, still struggling against his annoyingly strong hold.He still doesn't let go, “I need to search you,” he says out of the blue, his eyes thinning.Raven is even more enraged by his words. Is he really going to abuse his power right now to talk to her? Whatever it is that he has to say, she has absolutely no interest.”What are you talking about? If it's your text, then forget it. I'm not interested in whatever you have to say. The Draco that I know died a long time ago. Leave me alone Rex,” she enunciates the last part rather loudly.Then like a switch, his tone changes.Tugging her around to face him head-on, he says with a hard tone, “Don't be disill

  • Till Death Do Us Apart   Chapter 69

    Raven is in the middle of her experiment at the lab when her phone chimes loudly, distracting her momentarily.With a sigh, she returns the flask back into its stand before turning around to grab her phone from the desk.Her brows furrow at the screen. It is a text from Draco. But that is not what surprises her, it's the contents of the message.He wants to come clean?Will he explain where he has been all these years? Why is he pretending not to be Draco? What is he doing with Carla?Her curiosity is piqued at once, but then she is brought back to reality.Of course, he is Draco, she knows that already.She lets out a scoff.Right now that is enough, because she is done looking in places where she's not wanted.She had spent all this time trying to talk to him, to understand why he had been acting strangely. Instead, he had pushed her away as if she didn't matter.As though he was not the one who abandoned her in the first place.After shredding her heart to pieces and making her mour
