The Party Dakoda asked if I was enjoying myself. And yes, I am. I’m dancing with a hot guy right now. I mean, come on, he is the quarterback of the football team. Guys like Chad don’t normally look twice at girls like me. I’m a quietly shy girl. Unlike my twin sister, who is the life of the party. We may look just alike, but in ways she is so much prettier than I am. She carries herself differently than I could ever... with so much more confident than I have. But somehow Chad likes me. He’s so handsome and sweet. Most of the football players are such jerks to me because I’m so quiet and standoffish. I look over at my sister grinding on her long-time boyfriend Jax and smile at her.” Dakoda comes over to where Chad and I are dancing to let me know that she and Jax are going upstairs to have a little fun. “Are you going to be okay out here by yourself?” She asks me, and I give her a go to hell look because yes, I will be okay. I might be the shy, quiet kid, but in the arms o

Stella, It’s been a few weeks since I’ve been back home, and everything feels so weird still. Kai is the worst of it... he keeps treating me like I’m glass, and I just want to yell at him to stop, but I get where he and my family are coming from. We have all been through a lot in the last year and this just cuts the cake. I want Kai to touch me again, but every time he even so much as puts a hand on my back, I tense up and start thinking about Professor Hamilton’s hands on me. Tomorrow is Monday and the first day for me back at school. I’m worried about going back to school tomorrow because everyone will know I was kidnapped. Will it be the same as it was in Washington... where everyone makes jokes and makes my life and my family’s life hell? My sister walks up the stairs just then and comes into my room. “Hey sis, you doing okay? You didn’t seem focused at the dinner table tonight.” “Did I?” Dakoda arches a brow at me. “Don’t feed me that bullshit... Stella, yo

Kai, Fuck, she’s so fucking beautiful. I can’t believe we almost lost her. I will never let this girl out of my sights ever again. As I’m lowering myself inside her, I can feel her stretching for me and FUCK, I won’t last long. It’s been weeks since I have been inside her. “You okay baby I ask her as I bury myself all the way inside her. I don’t intend to stop now.” “Kai... Stella whispers and I lose myself to her.” After we have cleaned up, we lay back down in the bed and I can’t help it. I still want answers to why she thought killing herself was the best answer to her problems. “Stell?” Kai.” “Will you talk to me, baby? I need to know what was going through your head at the time and if there is anything we can do to prevent you from feeling that way ever again. Please don’t shut me out this time, Stella.” Stella puts a finger to her lips to ssh me, then sets up on her elbow and looks down at me. “Kai, the best way to explain what I was feeling was lik

Stella, Kai and my dad have really made me angry right now. I’m tired of being treated like a child. I’ve been through so much already. They shouldn’t control my life as well. Knowing that my dad and Kai are on the same side, I march to my room and pack my clothes, accepting my fate like a good girl. Once I get up to my room, I remember my phone is laying on my bed where I left it when I went to get a shower earlier... so I go to pick it up, and I freeze in place. My hands shake so badly I can barely hold my phone in my hands. I slide down my bed to the floor and yell for my dad because I honestly don’t know what else to do. Unknown: Picture attached... I’m here for you, baby. We can finally be together with no one standing in our way. My dad and Kai run up to my room in no time flat. Dad asked me what was wrong, then handed my phone to Kai. He then pulled me onto his lap like when I was little. “What the hell is going on?” Dakoda comes into my room

Stella, My sister and Mac follow us outside, and once Kai puts me down, they are on him like white on rice. “What do you think you are doing caring her out of the club like a freaking cave man?” Dakoda asks him with her thumb all up in his chest. I giggle at his face, and he looks over at me. Like you going to help me out here? “Dakoda.... sis, I told him I was ready to get out of here.” “She rounds on me next. What the hell Stella, where are you going?” “Home!” “Home?” “Yes, home,” I say with a butt outlook, and she gets the hint. “Oh, home gotcha. Well, you kids have fun.” She says, then she and Mac skip back inside. At 3 am, I woke up to a banging sound and left the bedroom with my bat. I twisted around to go back to the bedroom. I try to be quiet, so I don’t wake him, but when I get back into the bed, he wraps his arms around me. “Where’d you go baby he asks sleepy?” “I thought I heard something in the kitchen, so I went to s
