All Chapters of Entangled With The Bad Boy: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

AVAWhatever I was feeling before, all of it disappears the moment those words come out of his mouth. I shake my head, eyes wide in shock at what I am hearing from him. “What’s wrong with you, Luke? Do you even hear what you’re saying? You can’t do that.”“I can, and I will,” He retorts. “And there’s nothing you can do about it.”I rise from my seat and face him. All I see is someone consumed by rage. He’s serious, he is really going to do it. My hands curl into fists at my sides. I open my mouth to say something, but nothing comes out. A million thoughts race through my mind, a million words I could say yet none manage to leave my lips.“I respect you, Ava. I really do,” He pauses.Oh no, he doesn't. If he actually respected me, that crap wouldn’t be coming out of his mouth.“And I love you. Do you even know how happy I was when my dad introduced us at that dinner? You’re hot, brilliant and from a reputable family. Do you know how much happier I was when you told me you hadn’t had

AVAKai returns his gaze to the road, knuckles tightening on the wheel. I can only pray he won’t get us both killed with how recklessly he drives.He bites his bottom lip. “Don’t do that again,” he murmurs.Something about the way he bites his lip and says those words sends a flutter through me. I can tell I have an effect on him. All at once, I’m flooded with a confidence I’ve never felt before, especially when it comes to the opposite sex.I tilt my head to the side. “Do you believe me now?” I ask.Kai’s eyes meet mine for a second, then the corners of his mouth curl into a small smile. “I believe you.”Then he continues, “That was… just don’t do it again unless you want to get us both killed.”I smile back. “For someone who drives like a maniac, you sure act like you value your life.”“Sure, I do,” He replies. “I mean, the girls are going to miss me when I’m gone.”“Speaking of the girls, I didn’t see them hanging off or your tongue in them at the party,” I blurt out, the words sli

AVA I let my eyes drift away from his gaze and fall to the inked words on his chest. I trace my fingers across the letters. I want him to stop me, keep me from touching him before I cross a line I can't undo. If he does, maybe I will come back to my senses and realize I shouldn’t be doing this. But he doesn’t stop me, and deep down, a part of me doesn't want him to. I look at the words on his chest, just below the collarbone. It’s something I don’t recognize, a foreign phrase. “What’s this tattoo?” I ask, my voice barely more than a whisper. “Llévame al infierno,” Kai says, letting out a low sigh then adds, “It’s Spanish. It means ‘Take me to hell.’” “ That is…intense ,” I mutter under my breath. I can feel his eyes boring into me, his skin still hot beneath my touch. I wonder what’s going through his mind right now. He must think I’m out of my mind, that I am no different from the girls who thirst after him. The thought of Kai seeing me as just one of them twists somethi

AVA I swore I'd never run into him again. And yet, here he is, in my favourite spot. Since I’ve been coming to Sip n Snack, I’ve never seen him here before so of course, the universe really has to bring him here today. I take a deep breath and force my eyes away. I shouldn’t be staring at him like that. I guess it’s not a big deal, it’s not like I’m going over there to talk to him. I’m here to hang out with my friends, nothing more, nothing less. “Are you okay?” Sasha’s voice snaps me out of my reverie. I nod. “Yeah, I’m good. Do you come here often with Kai?” I’m not sure why I am trying to make conversation with her, maybe to keep my wandering eyes from drifting towards Kai. “Not really,” she says with a half shrug. “I’ve only been here a few times. Today I just felt like coming and I love trying out different restaurants. I dragged Kai along with me.” She glances at him before turning back to me, a beam on her face. “Kai’s not exactly into going out and trying new pla

AVAI sit up on my bed, my eyes widening. I reread the message, desperate to convince myself that I am not imagining it, but the message is still there. I can still hear the soft music drifting from my window, he must be the one who sent it. I shouldn’t even bother myself about it, who else could it be after all the arguments we’ve had?And just like that, Kai freaking Cooper is back in my mind. He really does know how to find his way in. I re-read the message again, and I feel the corner of my mouth twitch into a small smile. Why the hell am I smiling? It’s just a simple text. I wipe the damn grin off my face. I’m making it far too easy for him to have a hold over me, stupid me. A storm of questions run through my mind. How did he even get my number to text me on iMessage? Why didn’t he just tell me at the restaurant when I confronted him? And the biggest question of all, the one that won’t let me go, should I reply? Part of me thinks I should. He’s seen that I opened the message an
