Avala's POVFlashbackI laid back on my bed when my phone rang and to my pleasant surprise, it was Dravin who was calling."Hey, Dravin," I said excitedly. "How have you been? It's been a while since we talked.""Yeah," he replied. "I've been okay, and I'm sorry I took so long to call. I've had a lot going on since the last time I saw you.""I understand," I laughed it off. "So, how has things been for you?""I should be asking you that," he replied. "You're the one who was in a pretty precarious situation the last time we met. How has things been? Is Ben making good of his promise to protect you?" "He's trying his best," I shrugged. "He isn't omniscient, you know, and he's a busy man too. He can't watch over me 24/7. But I'm handling myself just fine so you have nothing to worry about.""I need to make sure of it," he replied. "I wanna see you again and be sure that you are okay.

And that kiss......It's been so long since I've felt his lips. I could never forget the feel of his lips but I was still mesmerized by them when our lips connected. And that annoys me.I should hate Darrell. He's living his life with a woman who warms his bed whenever he wants while I'm stuck here longing for h

Corvin's POV I saw out Ben and Vivian, following them downstairs and escorting them to their car as we chatted briefly. I was unable to take my eyes off them as it made me uncomfortable to see the way Ben had his arm wrapped around Vivian's shoulder. He also seemed to be quite affectionate towards her, asking her how she was feeling almost every minute as we walked.The jealousy I felt only increased every second I spent with them.Vivian had introduced him as a friend and judging from his lack of reaction to that, I could tell that she wasn't lying. I just don't trust Ben's presence.I don't know if he truly only sees Vivian as a friend and with how hands on he's been with her since he hugged her, I was sure there was more to it for him."Oh, Corvin," Ben turned to me like he just remembered something. "What can I give to reward you for taking care of her? I can understand that it can be tasking to care for a stranger you know almost nothing about? I would like to do something to
