Chapter 13:

Lilith's pov

I didn't see Dante's face for the next two days following the encounter in the garden. To be honest, I didn't feel like forcing myself to confront him, but I wasn't sure if that was a good or bad thing. I suppose it was better this way.

I spent time with Tiana during those two days. We talked about random topics and watched movies. I didn't realize I needed it, but it felt good, almost like we were going to be close friends. In an odd way, I felt like I could breathe w

    Chapter 25: Kayla's PovI didn't think Dante would say those things.I blinked, "Wait.. what?" "What did you just say? His expression was emotionless as he stared me in the eye. "You heard me.My heart was racing."With every word tinged with disgust, he went on, "They wanted to rape my so-called wife because she decided to get drunk and wander off like a child." Kayla, I saved you. "And this is how you repay me?" he gestured between us. "I stood there, stunned, my throat dry." I had no idea."I... I'm sorry," I muttered, not even remembering. "I was unaware. I had no idea. Dante laughed icily. You didn't, of course. However, it wasn't your intoxication that hurt me. It was that you didn't even defend yourself when I found you. It appeared as though you were prepared to be touched.With tears welling up in my eyes, I shook my head. "You don't have to pretend to be sorry," he yelled. "That's not true." "I am aware of your identity. I am aware that you desired it. Each of the three. Yo

    Chapter 24I made an effort to behave normally. Even though I made an effort to speak with Kinsey, he continued to stare whenever I looked up.Why is he observing me in that manner?I caught him staring again with my side eye. Still very strong. My whole body is still tense.Suddenly, Dante's voice broke the stillness."Why do you act that way?"What do you mean?" I asked, trying not to show how shocked I was. My fork slipped in my hand.Dante squinted his eyes. You're behaving as though there's a problem with you.I didn't respond. How could I respond?That Jake was observing me as if I had committed a crime I couldn't recall?that I had no idea what had happened the night before?Then all of a sudden tap! I was kicked under the table by Kinsey. She didn't have to say anything, that tap said it all.Kinsey interrupted him before I could say anything. "Why do you even care? Let her concentrate on her food while you concentrate on yours.Dante turned to smile sharply at her. "Now, betw

    Chapter 23: Kayla's PovI stood motionless after Jake left the kitchen.What just happened?I could hardly feel the cold glass of juice as my fingers curled around it. My thoughts were racing. What was he discussing? What took place the previous evening? Have I done anything? Is there a problem?He treated me as if I were some sort of trigger, as if I had done something I couldn't even recall.And the manner in which he stood before me...So tall. So quiet. Very similar to Dante.I didn't like feeling so little.I dismissed the idea and made myself move. I had to take the juice to Kinsey upstairs.My thoughts strayed once more as I ascended the stairs.Do I have to tell Tiana? He has been acting strangely, she acknowledged.However, no. Not just yet. I must first figure this out.I'm not a bad person. All I want to know is what I did.Kinsey's face lit up when I entered the room. "Oh my God," she exclaimed, grabbing the glass from me and taking a sip right away. "This is really revi

    Chapter 22"Hi, young lady. Tiana’s voice chirped behind me, "Good morning."I smiled a little as I turned around. “Greetings for the morning. How was your night?”Tiana yawned as she leaned against the doorway. "I suppose it was alright.A little strange. What happened?”She paused for a moment. "I don't want to get into specifics, but I believe there is a problem with Jake.It was strange the way he behaved last night.I furrowed my brow. "What do you mean?" "I don't know," she said, crossing her arms. "I believe I should stop there. "Um... okay, sure," I forced a nod. "But if you notice anything strange about Jake.. can you let me know?"To be honest, I wasn't even certain that I would notice anything about Jake. We hardly talked at all. However, Tiana was my friend, and I didn't want her to worry by herself. "I have to go to work today," Tiana continued, looking at her watch. "We'll catch up later, alright?" Okay. I'll see you later.With a wave, she walked away, her heels gently

    Chapter 21: Kayla povI had no idea that I would wake up with a pounding headache, stand in front of Dante with Kinsey at my side, and declare war on him as if we were on a battlefield.I was hardly able to open my eyes completely, and now this?I intervened before things got worse: "Kinsey, just stop. "No," she yelled as my voice sounded tired and hoarse. However, I gently grabbed her wrist and pulled her along before she could finish whatever dramatic speech she had planned.We strolled silently to my room. After we entered, I shut the door and faced her.You didn't need to do that, Kinsey.Her eyebrows went up. Is that how you say hello to your closest friend who traveled far to see how you're doing?I gave a blink.No, I didn't mean that.I then pulled her into an embrace without giving it any thought.She gave me a tight hug in return, as if she hadn't seen me in a long time."I'm not sorry for what I did," she said, looking me in the eyes when we finally let go. Just so you are

    Chapter 20I stopped and looked into her face."You're human, Dante," I muttered to myself. That's all.Humans simply act in this way. I completed taking off her heels. That's when I noticed it.Her dress had a rip. Most likely because I grabbed her too forcefully.She had a bare shoulder. Her chest was almost bare.I quickly averted my gaze.No. That wasn't what I was doing. That man was not going to be me.I grabbed the blanket and pulled it over her, completely enveloping her. I wouldn't dress her differently. I was not interested in seeing her body. Not for any fucking reason.She abruptly moved and grabbed my hand as I was adjusting the blanket."Please.. stay with me," she whispered, her fingers tiny and cold. "I missed you.I froze. My throat constricted.Who do you miss? Bitterly, I thought.She's having a dream. Talking in bed. Who in the world is she missing? I didn't retreat, though. I simply stayed.Just a few seconds.I glanced at her during those brief moments. looked r
