ログインRonnie's POV“Your father is returning.” She repeated, like I hadn’t heard her the first time.I stared at her intently, and the glass in my hand suddenly felt much heavier.“The same man who walked away from you?” I laughed bitterly.My voice rose.“The same man who left you and your co-wife to be with another woman?”I shook my head slowly. “You’ve got to be kidding me, Mom.”She lowered her eyes. “It’s not exactly like that, you know…”“Then what exactly is it?” I interrupted, my tone increasing by the second."I'm not staying under the same roof as that asshole!" I said, before she could even make up another excuse for him."Ronnie!" My mom yelled back. "Do you realize it's your father you're talking about like that?""That is not my father!" I said, pointing towards the door like he was standing right there. "Someone like him doesn't deserve to be called a father."My mom looked genuinely upset and ready to attack me with her words, and that was the part that annoyed me the most.
Ronnie’s POVI stayed under the shower a little longer than I probably should have.The water continued to fall over my body, carrying away the foam of the soap that had gathered around my feet before disappearing down the drain.I rested one palm against the tiled wall and closed my eyes.A long, exhausted sigh escaped my lips.No matter how hard I tried to push everything out of my mind…It refused to leave.Every memory came rushing back without my permission.His face.The way he suddenly stopped moving as if something about me left him in shock.The look in his eyes.I should have taken that as a cue to stop. But no, the me in that moment was too focused on her desires.I squeezed my eyes tighter.“Stop thinking about it.”My own voice sounded weak inside the empty bathroom. “You brought this upon yourself.”I grabbed the sponge again.If my mind refused to forget, then maybe my body could.I scrubbed harder and harder determined to remove every thing that reminded me of him from
Ronnie’s POVAs soon as I got back to the room, I packed up every single thing I had brought down here; the speed at which I packed up shocked me even. I just wanted to get the heck out of this place and all the memories that came with it.As much as I tried to drown myself in the burden of having to pack, I still found myself checking my phone time and time again till I almost smashed it on the wall.There was still no message from him, and I couldn’t stop myself from thinking.Something cold crept up my arm at every thought that formed in my head.I couldn’t stop the heaviness that settled in the lower part of my stomach.That feeling of dread…A feeling that reminded me that I was stupid for spreading my legs without having to say the word ‘stupid’.Of course, he had an agenda all along, but I was too blind to see it.At least he got his revenge, and finally got me to give my first time to the Monster I once refrained from.Nice job, Nolan.I should have handled everything on my ow
123Ronnie’s POVThe first thing I noticed was the cold.The spot beside me on the bed was cold and empty, like nothing had ever been there. Like last night had been something that happened in my dreams or something I imagined all together.I sat up slowly, blinking against the morning light coming from the curtains.The room was quiet.“Nolan?” I calledNothing.Not even a whisper of reply.I looked around… the bathroom door was open, the light off. His bags were gone. The chair where he had dropped his jacket the night before was empty.He was gone.Just like that.My eyes scanned the room… instinctively landing on the table to see if there was a note there.Unfortunately, there was nothing.I took off the blankets and hopped off the bed, hurrying towards the living room area, where I usually stay.My phone laid pretty on the table where I had left it last night with the uncovered and untouched food I had ordered for us.I scrolled through my phone, hoping to see a message from him.
Nolan’s POVThe ceiling had been staring back at me for a while now.I hadn’t moved. Hadn’t tried to sleep. Hadn’t done much of anything except lie there with her weight pressed against my chest, her body warm.It was like even in her sleep, she was trying to make this harder than it already was.She was sleeping so peacefully.Her breathing was slow and even, her lashes perfectly still against her cheeks, her lips slightly parted. Every part of her was relaxed in a way I rarely ever got to see when she was awake.When she was awake, there was always something guarded about Ronnie, some invisible wall she kept pretending wasn’t there at all.But like this, in the quiet of the early morning with the curtains barely keeping out the light, she looked so much different.I couldn’t stop thinking about last night.Every single detail of it was still running on a loop in my head, clear and sharp, like my mind had decided to commit all of it to permanent memory without consulting me first.Th
Ronnie’s POV“I… I don’t know what you’re talking about, Nolan…”Despite how hard I tried to push the words out of my throat, they only came out in the form of a breathless whisper.“You sure as hell do.” He said, his hands now traveling down my arms and settling on my waist.“Nolan!” I muttered.His hands were already starting a fire in my chest that I had been trying to run from for the longest time.No please…I almost said out loud, but my stupid eyes went shut in anticipation of what he would do next.I could already feel his lips just inches away from mine.No… this is not right!I tried to talk myself out of that moment, but it was almost impossible.My heart kept pounding heavily, like it was increasing its pace by the second.His large hands cupped my face as he pressed a soft kiss on my lips.The kiss… It wasn’t rushed at all.It was almost like he had poured out all his emotions in that one kiss.That was when everything inside of me broke loose.I buried my hands in his ha
Ronnie's POV Her words were sharp in my head, making me turn instantly."Enjoy your breath while you still have it." She continued through the mindlink as our eyes met, a wide smile spread across her lips. The rate of my heartbeat became even faster and I couldn't even understand what was going o
Ronnie's POV My throat couldn't feel any less dry as his cold thumb circled around my neck. I held back whatever sound that was forming in my mouth. My head snapped to the left, I couldn't continue looking into those deceptive eyes of his cause the longer I looked, the more I lost control. He g
Ronnie's POVImmediately the doors of the room fell open, my chest tightened and my throat instantly went dry.He stepped in graciously, his hands moving across his hair for a bit before his eyes dropped to me.I didn't fail to notice how his eyes went over me from my head, down to my toes. The loo
Nolan's POV "Whatever it is?" I whispered softly in her ear as I watched her shiver under my touch. I could read her heart, the sincerity that floated in it, but I doubt she was ready for what I was about to ask. Her throat bobbed then she finally nodded. "Yes..." She tried to sound firm, but sh
