Kara opened her eyes in a snap, her gaze meeting his with confusion.
"A day till your engagement. And then what...? A wedding?" he tilted his head to the side in a sarcastic way.
Kara turned her head away, her stomach feeling like something heavy had been dropped there that was making her heart feel heavy. Her gesture made James even closer to her as he brought his face to her neck and whisper near her ear, "don't worry. You are going to be mine only."
Panicked, Kara tried to free her wrist, "Ja

Kara came out of the party exhausted to her bones. She was tired after keeping her lips in a smile the whole time they met their old friends and classmates. She was not happy, because most of them were just there to inquire in how much wealth Kara was going to be after marrying Damon and if their relationship was a business deal. She heard murmurs and she heard gossips, all she wanted to do was return to her room and as the clock struck one am, she gave the invitation card with Damon to the host and walked out of the party, letting Damon know that she wanted to go home.She walked outside and deeply inhaled the fresh air. After a few minutes, James drove out of the parking in the SUV but Kara did not get in. Feeling him near herself was already too hard to bear, and currently, she was not in the state of being anywhere near close to him.A few minutes later Damon came out running towards them, "Sorry, took a bit long." he smiled at Kara while handing over the purse to

"James you are crossing the lines of...""Uncle, please calm down." Kara interrupted them as she came between them to stop the fight that was about to get heavier, "James is right, Uncle. Please, I need to know what is happening right now. How the hell are you guys getting attacked by gunshots because of me? I... I don't think I have ever done anything that would...""It is not your fault." James stopped her as his voice turned gentle.Neil was not convinced and still agitated at James for speaking out. But now as the words were out, they could not be taken back and he did not have any other option left.James came close to Kara and started, "Your parents had not made their will when they had died. Although I had managed to transfer t

"That is not true, Kara." James said softly, and then before he could say anything, the line disconnected and the call ended. Worried, he instantly called back but the phone had turned switched off.Kara clicked on the screen of her phone repeatedly but it didn't turn back on. Growling in frustration she gulped down the last glass of tequila in front of her and stood up and then instantly stumbled. A guy standing on the bar right beside her tried to grab her but before he could touch her, some else slipped his arms in her waist, holding her possessively close to him.James pressed Kara against his body and exited the bar without uttering a word. The only thing he was caring about was Kara who was tripping on each step. He was tempted to lift her up in his arms but couldn't as there were too many people around them. So he quietly led her

Kara kept staring at him. Her hand slipped out and the tips of her fingers touched his chin, and then his lower lip. James closed his eyes at the feeling of her touch while she continued to slip her fingers on his lips like tracing a path. He kissed her finger softly. She slipped her fingers from his hard jaw and then to his cheek."James." she whispered softly.James opened his eyes when he felt her moist face snuggling in his neck, she was sobbing silently and he kept on holding her close to himself before bending down to kiss the top of her head,"Everything will be fine. I will make everything alright. I promise.""You will not leave me, right?" she murmured."Not even if you beg me to."Kara pulled her face back and looked up at him and shook her head softly and said in a slurred tone,"I am dreaming. When the morning comes, the dream will be over."James felt helpless in front of her. When her sobbing subsided, she whispered,"Mama put my hand in Dam

This was the worst hangover anyone could have ever gotten in their lifetime- was the first thought that entered Kara's mind as soon as she opened her eyes. Her mind was completely blank, and hurting when she peeped open one eye to look around the room until her eyes fell on the clock on the side table showing one pm. It was not like this was the first time she had drunk herself to unconsciousness. Back in the college she used to get drunk until she was no longer aware of what was around her whenever Damon came to visit her. He would take her out of the house that she stayed holed up in and let her do whatever she wanted for the whole night. But even then her hangovers were never this painful. Maybe her head was throbbing too much this time because she had cried her eyes out last night. Getting up from the bed she grabbed the phone off

"What the fuck?!" Damon cursed angrily while flipping around. But he had barely turned before James grabbed his shoulder and threw him back, making him fall on the ground with a loud thud."What the hell is wrong with you?" Damon shouted furiously while getting up on his feet and striding towards James."How fucking dare you hide such a big thing from me?" James' voice was colder than ice, his demeanor completely calm that hid the overpowering thunder simmering inside every inch of his skin, "why the fuck am I the only one who did not know about anything related to Kara?""What are you talking about?"James strode forwards hastily, his hand instantly grabbing Damon's neck as his control snapped completely, "You already knew I loved her, right? You fucking always knew what was between her and me. Why the fuck did you hide about the engagement from me? Why the hell did you not tell me anything?"Damon was silent for a few seconds, his mind racing fas

Kara waited a bit for James to return to the hotel after receiving the last text from Damon. She tried to call him but could not connect. In the end, she grabbed her wallet from the table and ran out of the hotel. After getting inside a cab, it took her an hour and a half before she got out hastily and ran inside through the main doors of James' home. She was just crossing the small garden when her gaze fell upon a silhouette sitting in the garden swing, looking lost. She recognized James instantly and walked towards him. Taking a seat beside him on the swing she waited for him to say something. The silence between them was strange but she did not try to console or talk to him about the matter. Waiting for him to open up.Eventually, James' shoulders relaxed and he leaned back on the swing."I fought with mom and dad. Their words hurt e
