LOGINI’m trouble for anyone who crosses my path. I am heartless and selfish. I don’t care about anyone or anything in this world. When you grow up in a house full of lies, distress and abuse, those walls go up high and thick. Anyone with any sense knows not to get involved with me. I hurt people and destroy their lives without a care in the world. The world has given me nothing. Why should I give it anything? I am comfortable with who I am, and if people have an issue with it, that’s their problem, not mine. Unlike others, I don’t pretend to be someone I’m not. What you see is what you get with me. When Aubrey unexpectedly enters my life, all I desire is to have her as my own. I should steer clear. She is my brother’s wife’s cousin. The fact that she is off-limits only increases my desire for her. She is sweet and nice. She has already been through a lot. It should be enough to keep me away, but it isn’t. I will do whatever it takes. Aubrey will be mine, even if just for one night, regardless of what I have to do. Nothing and no one can stand in my way. I thought I would ruin her life, but she ended up changing mine. Cover by Covers By Sophie
View MoreEverettI'm sitting at the kitchen table, watching Aubrey prepare pancakes for breakfast as a way to celebrate our first year living together. I hadn’t realized this was a tradition, but I’m okay with it. I have my own plans later to mark the occasion. I smile as she dances around, singing badly along to the music playing in the background. I’m more in love with her today than I was a year ago. The past year living together has been amazing—I never thought I’d be this happy. Waking up beside her, falling asleep together, and sharing dinner every night are my favorite parts. I cherish how we spend all our free time together. It’s the simplest moments with her that I love the most. I soon realise this moment right here would be perfect. I don’t need to wait for tonight; being spontaneous is always a good thing. I stand up from the chair.Aubrey turns her head slightly to look at me. “Where are you headed? Breakfast will be ready shortly.” "I will be back soon. I promise," I say with a
Everett Aubrey shaking me and calling my name abruptly wakes me from sleep. Last night was her first official night living here, and I couldn’t be happier. However, I start to panic as she wakes me. What if she has changed her mind?“Aubrey, what is wrong?”I glance over and see her sitting on the edge of the bed. “They found him, Everett. He’s been arrested for attempted armed robbery. He’ll go to jail, not just for that but also for breaking and entering, harassment, and stalking me. He’ll be gone, and I’ll never have to deal with him again,” she says, tears of happiness running down her face. They got the bastard! About time. Now he can rot in jail. I hope he dies in there!I hug her tightly. “Thank God, you don’t need to worry about him anymore. You are safe. You will always be safe. He will get what is coming to him. He will get exactly what he deserves,” I say.“Yes, he will. Now, we can truly begin our lives without the concern that he might appear at any moment. I am finally
AubreyI laugh as Erica and I walk to the kitchen. “They are so afraid of you.”She smiles proudly. “Yes, they are. Someone needs to keep the two of them in line. Someone needs to tell them off because they are acting like children.”I nod in agreement. “Do you think they will agree?”“They will be fine.”Erica asks me to sit down while she prepares some coffee. I listen closely, trying to ensure they aren’t arguing. It’s quite silent. They either speak normally or are completely silent. I can’t tell which is worse—them being quiet or not arguing at all.“Aubrey, don’t worry about them. No one is leaving until they sort it out here.”I sigh and nod, focusing on her. Erica soon joins me at the table. “Do you want to go outside and drink it?”“Outside.”We go outside to sit on the porch swing, sipping our coffee. “How did this happen? Whose idea was it for you to move in?”“Everett asked me. I told him I needed some time to decide, and he was fine with it. Then, before we came in, I mad
EverettAubrey and I arrive at Hugo and Erica’s house, driving up the driveway to collect her belongings to bring back to mine. It feels odd to walk in together and not conceal our relationship. I’m unsure of how they will respond. I stop the car outside, turn off the engine, and prepare to get out. However, before I can, Aubrey reaches out for me, stopping me. I turn to her, puzzled. “Are you okay, angel?”“My answer is yes. I don’t need to think about it any longer.” She smiles.“Really? You mean it?” My voice clearly shows my excitement. Aubrey leans over and gently kisses me. “Yes, I truly mean it.”I expected her to take longer to decide, but I am glad it didn’t.“I can’t wait. Should we tell them while we’re here?” I ask.Aubrey sighs. “Yes, I believe we should. I don't know exactly how it will go, but they will need to come to terms with it.” “Yes, they will. Do they know we are coming?”Aubrey nods. “Yes, I texted Erica to let her know we are on our way.”“Okay.”Nervousnes
EverettI’ve been awake for a bit, but I haven’t moved. I am not ready to see Aubrey. I remembered quickly, once I woke up, that I had opened my big mouth when I was drunk. I didn’t say too, but it was enough. Aubrey didn’t seem to pick up on what I meant. That is something, I guess. I can’t hide i
Aubrey Everett invited himself to stay at mine tonight. Not on the sofa, nope, in my bed with me. I haven’t given him an answer about his suggestion. Everett hasn’t brought it up again. I still don’t know what my answer will be. It isn’t the best idea to start it up again, that is the sensible par
EverettWe walk in silence. An awkward silence. How did we become like this? You would think we were strangers who had only met, and it couldn’t be further from the truth. Aubrey is in a little world of her own. She isn’t watching where she is going, not really. It is why I am keeping a close eye o
EverettI head back inside the café. The guy I punched scurried out like the coward he is. It would have scared Aubrey, especially with everything she has been through. I grab my things from the table.“Where are you going?” Chelsea, my date, snaps, glaring at me.“To make sure she is okay.”“Are y
