CHAPTER 27

Isabella’s POV My body tingles with another sip of my bubblegum martini. It’s my third glass and it’s only tasting sweeter on my lips, it’s a week day and I’m not supposed to be drinking but I’m so fucking nervous after the day I’ve had at work. The tips of my fingers always feel the turning point first when I drink. That familiar buzz that makes my body feel a bit heavy and my mind light, I hardly ever get drunk I had a horrible experience in college and I still have ptsd hence the reason I hardly drink. “What’s going on with you today? You’re drinking, alot.” Lydia says into her wineglass looking at me weird. “Yeah what’s going on and it’s a week day.”Alessia adds. “I have news guys.” I say and they all drop their drinks their attention all in me. “We’re listening.” Alessia says almost eager. “I have a boyfriend.” I say a little smile on my face. “You know I knew it,” Lydia says turning to Ales

CHAPTER 28

Carter's POV I drank the sight of Isabella in she looked like she was in pain, so beautiful even in her pain, her long, dark hair lying in loose waves and her gorgeous eyes shimmering with tears and fear. Suddenly I felt guilty for asking her what happened to her, there's obviously a reason she's so scared of being in any locked space. Even her apartment is very open with large huge windows everywhere, and ofcourse how undeniably scared she was the first day I met her. "What happened to you?" I ask again. "I was sexually assaulted." She says then she sighed deeply like it was something she had to get off her chest and my heart crashed to a stop before resuming a fast, erratic beat in my chest. "Well he didn't technically rape me, he almost raped me but it's like he took a part of me with him that night." She explain

Isabella’s POV When I woke up, I could feel that my eyes were swollen. The room was dim, curtains drawn out, Carter must have carried me to the bedroom last night. I pressed the automatic curtain opener on my bedside table, the curtain opens and I could see that the sun was out completely. I moved the blanket that was over me to the side. Carter must have done that. My heart squeezed. Carter. He had taken care of me. I felt so safe around him, I have never actually told anyone the extent of what happened to me in details. The only people who knew what happened to me was my parents, then my two best friends Alessia and Lydia and ofcourse my friend Demi and I didn’t tell them anything in detail. I sat up, and despite my sore eyes, I had
