CHAPTER 211

WillowAiden is late. We agreed on 7pm, so where is he?My pride won’t let me call him. I can’t even ask Vincent to do it because he’ll know it’s from me.“Calm down, Miss Thompson. I’m sure he’s on his way.”Vincent is keeping me company in the drawing room. My dad is off attending some gala. My aunt took a trip out of the city. Have no idea when she’ll be back. Vincent and I are playing a board game to pass the time. Monopoly can be quite distracting. Unfortunately, it’s not doing enough to stop me from being mad at Aiden. The doors open and there he is. Finally. “I’m so sorry.” He’s out of breath. “There was a family emergency. I had to take care of it. That’s why I’m…” he takes a peek at his watch. “Seven minutes late.”“You could have called.” I look away from him, trying my hardest not to dwell on how good he looks in his navy blue dress shirt. The sleeves are rolled up to his elbows. Even the top two buttons are undone. From where I’m stand, I can smell his cologne. “My ba

CHAPTER 212

AidenWillow is having a blast. Her claws are out and she’s making quick work of the figures. She starts with Horace. She slashes at him so many times, he’s got wide claw marks on every last inch of his body. Next is Garrett. The way she attacks him is personal. She mostly kicks him in the groin with her knee. She grabs his shoulders to steady herself. “Take that, you fucker!” She growls, voice shaking. “What was that? You want me to stop? You don’t think you can handle the pain?” She digs in harder. Only stops kicking when she loses her balance. But she doesn’t fall, not while I’m there to catch her. “Hey. You okay?” I pull her hair away from her face, expecting to see tears in her eyes. But there’s only laughter. She’s laughing. “I’m fine,” she wheezes in between laughs. “Actually, I feel more than fine.”She steps out of my arms and moves on to Rowan. Vincent walks over to me. There’s a lightness in his steps that wasn’t there before. We stand shoulder to shoulder, eyes tra

CHAPTER 213

WillowI’m spending the night with Aiden, in this five star guest room. I’ve gone from being pissed at him for showing up late to offering him refuge from his parents’ wrath.The suite doesn’t even have twin beds. Just one queen-sized mattress.It’s fine. I can do this. All we have to do is sleep next to each other until morning. Nothing is going to happen. Aiden very well knows that he’s still on probation with me. Surely, he won’t try anything.“You won’t be coming home tonight?” My dad doesn’t sound pleased to ask this, especially since I hadn’t given him prior notice. “Come on, honey. If you’re going to make plans to stay out, you have to let me know at least an hour before.”“Sorry dad. It was a last-minute arrangement.”He sighs. “The only reason why I’m allowing this is because it’s Aiden. Besides, Vincent already called to inform me the moment you and your boyfriend decided you’d be spending the night together.”“Dad.” I blush. “He’s not my boyfriend. We broke up. I know how t

CHAPTER 214

AidenI caught her checking me out and like an idiot, my dick reacted to those horny eyes.That’s right. She’s horny, probably imagining all the different ways she’d allow me to fuck her, if I choose to a move.But I won’t. It doesn’t matter how badly I want her. I have to keep my distance. It’s the only way for us to get through this.Rather than having sex right off the bat, I’ll earn her trust with platonic gestures.We can fuck all we want once I’ve got her smiling at me with love in her eyes, the way she used to. Right now, she’s in defence mode. She can’t even look me in the eye properly.I return to the bed to find Willow already lying beneath the covers. But she’s not asleep yet. It’s almost as if she’s waiting for me.I clench my fists, forcing my lips to smile. “Not sleepy?”She shakes her head. The way she’s lying down, I spy a generous amount of cleavage peaking out of my shirt. I knew this was going to be torture lending her my shirt for the night, but it’s not like I had

Chapter 215

WillowAll I can think about is my night with Aiden. Nothing had happened. Just a few heated looks. At one point, I thought he was going to kiss me. But he didn’t. He merely kept an eye on me, until I went to sleep. This morning, I woke up to find him already showered and dressed. He had a fresh outfit waiting for me, breakfast laid out.“What are you thinking so deeply about?” Ginny taps my arm with her fork. “Hello? Earth to Willow.”I snap out of my thoughts to find Ginny grinning at me. “I’m sorry. I zoned out for a minute.”“Does it have anything to do with Aiden?” She hides a chuckle behind her hand, forcing me to narrow my eyes at her.“What’s so funny?” We’re in the lunch area at headquarters, eating our lunch. I’ve spent the entire morning familiarizing myself with my new responsibilities, simultaneously thinking about how good Aiden had looked, lying next to me in bed last night.“Oh nothing,” Ginny stifles another laugh. “Just wondering exactly how your date with Aiden had g

CHAPTER 216

WillowA Chinese restaurant opened not long ago, across the road from my condo. Before I was kidnapped, I had plans to eat there. Thankful I’m still alive and I get to eat there with Aiden.Not that I plan to tell him that. I’m much too busy staring at my chopsticks like they are the most fascinating objects in the world. Vincent sits behind me. That way, he’s not in my line of sight and I can relax a bit more. I look up to find Aiden staring at my face. “What? Why are you looking at me like that?”He smiles sheepishly. “Nothing. It’s just… I don’t know how to cook a hotpot.”“Oh.” That’s what he’s worried about. I smile, peering at the ingredients, as well as the mini stove set. “It’s fine. We’ll do it together. It’s not hard. All you have to do is pour in a bunch of stuff into the steaming pot.”“That simple?” he picks up a lettuce. “Even this.”“Of course. Throw it right in.” I give him a thumbs up. Then I proceed to add the meat in. We work together, throwing a bunch of preferen

CHAPTER 217

AidenShe wants me to kiss her. I take a deep breath and let it out slowly. It fan’s Willow’s lips and she parts them. And I almost crash my lips on hers.This past week has been nothing short of pure torture.There was a brief moment where I thought I lost her for good. Now here we are. About to kiss. But does she really want me to? What if shr regrets it and pulls away? I don’t think I can take it if she were to keep her distance now. “Twinkles.” I grab her shoulders gently. “You don’t have to force yourself to kiss me, you know? I meant what I said about taking things slow.”Yeah. That’s better. As much as I’m dying to taste her lips, I have to hold back. “What?” Willow grabs the neckline of my shirt, tilting her head backwards, nestling her face underneath my chin. “You don’t want to kiss me?”What the hell is going on right now? She wants this?“Of course I do.” My lids almost drop closed due to how intensely, I’m struggling to curb my basal needs. “I just don’t want you to ha

CHAPTER 218

Aiden“You wanted to meet. If this is about Theo, don’t worry. I didn’t hurt him too much. Just messed up his insides a bit.” I’m seated across the room from Spencer, arms folded, knowing grin in place. “And just incase you were wondering, yes, he deserved it.”“Aiden.” Spencer sighs, closing his papers. “I know what Grace told you. I want to talk about that.”“I don’t want to talk about that. I thought you called me hear to talk about Theo. But since that’s not the case, I’m leaving.”“No.” Spencer crosses the room. He grips my shoulders and pins me to the sofa. I could easily shove him off me. But I don’t. Not because he doesn’t deserve it. It would hurt my mother. And after everything she’s being true, really not in the mood to piss her off. I still hate the fact that she kept something so important away fron me but now that I’ve truly thought about it, I understand why she did the things she did. It’s easier to judge a situation from the outside, when you’re not the one, who’s l

CHAPTER 219

Willow Violet is currently undergoing magical therapy. The reason why is because her mind was messed around with a lot—first with Rowan and then, Ginny when she interrogated her.But according to my dad, she’s getting better. Crying less and reflecting more on her actions. That’s the reason why I’ve been putting off going to visit her. The Violet I know wouldn’t want me to look pathetic in front of me. Not because I can’t. It’s just a pride thing for her.Anyways, now that she’s feeling better, I go to pay her a visit after breakfast. I still have twenty minutes to spare before I have to leave for my internship.Last night, my dad and Helen had spent a full hour questioning me about Aiden. It was embarrassing, but it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. The most surprising part was Cary. He’s not as against our relationship as he had been a while ago.The rescue mission must have brought him close toAiden. They must have bonded over the course of that day.Violet is taking a bunch

CHAPTER 220

Willow“You want me to go gift shopping with you? For Tonks?” Aiden doesn’t exactly sound pleased about the idea. I wonder why that is. “Twinkles… I don’t think it’s a good idea for you to be spotted wandering around a busy mall. There are all kinds of assholes lurking in the shadows. Horace Smith for one, must have lackeys keeping an eye on you.”“Don’t worry, Aiden. I’ve thought of that. The store we’ll be going to… it’s a boutique. The owner is a friend of my aunt’s. I already called her and she’s okay with emptying the place for an hour. Anyways, she needs us to come in by 2pm.”“You’ve really thought this through, huh?” He’s smiling. I really wish I could see it. “Alright, twinkles. It’s a date.”A date. “A date? Don’t those usually end with a kiss? We’re only going gift shopping.”“Well,” he drawls. “You did kiss me as a goodnight gesture. What’s to say you won’t kiss me again in gratitude for going gift shopping.”I snort. “You so full of yourself.”“That’s merely wishful think
