CHAPTER 51 - A date with MatthewKYLIE'S POVThe day of my date with Matthew brought with it a whole lot of uncertainties. I mean, I know I said I wanted to move on, but the truth was, when I made that call to Matthew the evening before, it was sort of, on the spur-of-the-moment thing. I didn't think of how I would feel after. And now, morning had come, and I suddenly had this desire to run away from the commitment I had made.I blew out a breath as I got out of bed. I couldn't have been more pissed with Elijah than I was right then. If it weren't for his lies, and all of his mystery that made him toxic, of course, I would not have a reason to be with someone else. Then there was how he called me his friend.His friend!My anger came in waves, and for the better, because it was the motivation that I needed to go on with my meeting with Matthew. I drew my brows together and went to the wardrobe to pick out my outfit.I settled on a white crop top and dungarees. We were going to a park,

CHAPTER 53 ~ Closer to the TruthELIJAH'S POVI found him outside his apartment and just stood to watch him. He was on a call with heaven knew who and I wondered if he was speaking to Kylie. The smile on his face told me it wasn't impossible, and that only added to my vexation.I balled my hands in fists and made my way toward him. He turned before I reached him and had a look of surprise before it cleared and he looked at me with a bit of annoyance."I don't know how you found me here, but to an extent, I am not surprised to find you here.""Why would you be? When you're hell-bent on taking my woman from me.""your woman?” “Kylie.” I said from grinded teeth.“Kylie. I see.” He said and smiled, “The last time I checked, Kylie was single." Matthew said and ran a hand over his head.“She told you that? She told you she was single?” Because I happened to overhear them while he was having a good time feeding her chips. She had not directly said she was single."Look man, I respect you, b

CHAPTER 55 ~ Kylie’s failed attemptKYLIE'S POVI placed a hand over my racing heart once Elijah was gone. Bravado, that's all it was, when I asked him to leave a moment ago. Nothing but sheer bravado, had me locking the door against Elijah. Because when he was gone, I slid against the door and tried to still the trembling.I know what I had seen out there in the woods, even though Elijah tried to convince me to forget all about it.Beasts. They were beasts, who were first men. And what struck me as worse, was that Elijah had been there right after. Did that make him one of the beasts too?I placed my hands on my temples and began to rock forward and backward. What the hell was happening around me? And how did Elijah connect to all of it? Because he knew something. The very fact that he was hell-bent on me staying away proved that much. But what if I was right, and he was a part of it as well?I needed to know. I simply needed to know.Sure, a part of me screamed to stay away from Eli

CHAPTER 57 ~ Imagine a life without…KYLIE’s POV“That is your final word?” Hannah asked, and some of her earlier calm and sweet exterior had been chipped away. Her true colors were showing, her mask was slipping away.“You heard me the first time,” I said, and set aside my bottle of water.“Did you not hear me the first time? I said it would help the family financially if you did this.”“Oh, I heard you mother. The problem is, you didn’t listen to me. So I’ll try again. I don’t care about the finances of your family. I say “your family” because you all kicked me out and left me to fend for myself. So, why do I have to care so much about what you all choose to do after what you did to me? Why should I care what happens next?”“Because you owe us.” She spat and I scoffed.”“Every penny I was given, came with spite and ridicule. I truly doubt I owe you anything at this point. But if you what repayment, give me a couple of years, I’m sure I can be able to pay for taking up space in your

CHAPTER 59 - They took KylieELIJAH’s POVI had known from the beginning that she only wanted me to come over to press further on the whole situation. But in spite of what I knew, I still couldn’t keep my distance. Not even after telling myself that it was for the best.Nevertheless, I was not budging. I had seen her, she was safe, and if she didn’t want to have anything to do with me after this, it was fine. But she was safe.“Well, I suppose it will be best if took my leave now,” I said, taking a step back. All she had to do was ask me to stop. To simply tell me that she didn’t care if I told her about my real nature. That she wanted me to stay.But she didn’t. She simply nodded.“Starting to believe there isn’t really much left of us.” She said and I shook my head.“I’m starting to believe that I’m being manipulated emotionally,” I said and she raised a brow.“That’s quite the accusation, don’t you think?”“Is it though? Because the way I see it, there can be no us. As long as you
