Lahat ng Kabanata ng All's Fair in love and hate: Kabanata 11 - Kabanata 20

CorneliusI was terrible at showing my emotions. Heck I was terrible at consoling anyone. The last time I consoled someone we ended up getting arrested after a fist fight in some bar down town. And the guy being consoled who was Jay by the way couldn't help but get pissed the more.Now she. She clutched my shirt in her fists gripping my whole body for support. At first I hesitated, things with Lydia had become weird. Things with Lydia were becoming strange by the day.Resting my hand on her back, I pulled her closer to me feeling her tears penetrate my shirt. The dog sure meant alot to her, huh? Abruptly pulling away from me, she sniffed wiping her face with the back of her hands."I-i'm sorry. I didn't mean to entertain you"And the old Lydia Hayden was back. The one that thought I was a mere scoundrel who deserves something worser than death."Lydia"I purred her name ever so softly and for the first time I couldn

Cornelius"This is Lydia Hayden reporting live from downtown Los Angeles"I watched the blondie from the tv in my office. She was one hell of a firecracker if she managed to go to work despite her condition."Hey Connor!" Chance barged into my office in time to see me stare at Lydia on the news channel."Is this gonna be a thing now? You. Her?"He said with an irritating smug that pissed me off."We don't have a thing, Chance. Remember, that woman could ruin our lives as we know it""Well I'm holding my end of the bargain by keeping your aunt on a leash and on the other hand you seem to be going all in for her"All in? What did that even mean?"What do you mean by that?""I'm just saying man. Just like you said, the woman's the death of us so be careful, don't do anything stupid,"he left the documents on top of my desk passing me the same look he gave me this morning.Seeing her in a s

LydiaI stood up only to feel the grip of two hands on my shoulder,"Are you okay?"What the hell was he doing here?"Get me a napkin," he instructed the dumb founded waiter."What- what are you doing here?" I asked Cornelius the moment he started dabbing the white napkin on my blouse and skirt."I had a meeting here, babe. What are you doing here? And how could this happen? How incompetent are these people really?"Tell me about it. It all felt like a dream more of a little nightmare. My ex telling me he still loved me and my...I didn't even know what to call him...showing up at the exact place I was and in time to save me from the utter embarrassment of getting humiliated by being drenched in red wine.Robert, who had also stood up after the waiter tripped on our table, tightened the button on his suit and scoffed."I believe we haven't been properly introduced. I'm Robert, we met the other day and you must be?"He extended a hand to Connor to

LydiaIn all my life as a reporter, I never tried risks. Risks were inevitable but they were also avoidable which is why I had applied that to my life too.Whatever happened yesterday, thrice infact, was a risk I could have well avoided but it felt so right being showered with kisses, tenderness, caresses and...Oh God! What on earth had he awoken in me?But I suppose that's why I avoided risks, because at the end of the day they were things bound to make you feel more or less a sore loser.And trust me, I was a loser because I imagined yesterday to be special. The day my cherry was popped. I was a big fool to imagine that when I woke up he would be right beneath me begging for another round, begging me not to leave and he'd make breakfast but sadly I was mistaken. The space beside was empty almost like no one was there.Almost like whatever happened last night was a figment of my imagination.Shallow. That's one way to put how far I'd

CorneliusI didn't just have sex yesterday atleast it wasn't the same thing I'd done with ladies all my life. Yesternight was special, something about how I felt alive everytime she moaned with pleasure, I made her feel that way. Me! My mind didn't focus on anything but her yesterday. How her body was beyond perfection, how her lucious lips  drove me to insanity.Having a fill of her wasn't enough. Making love to her three times wasn't enough, God knows I so badly wanted to ravish her right now and here. Her long eyelashes patted her skin ever so gracefully. The morning light hit her face and I would be lying if I said she didn't look beautiful without makeup.Thinking of her in that manner wasn't healthy, I wasn't ready to commit to something as hurtful as love. I slept with her which was the main goal for the entire week and now my quench for her was over. But was it though? I shook my head feeling my manhood harden just at the thought of her again in my arms
