How dare she hurt the lady I genuinely love? "Shan, I was —" "OH SHUT THE F*CK UP! What did Ciara do to you to cause her so much pain?! TELL ME RIGHT NOW!" "SHE TOOK YOU AWAY FROM ME!" I gave her a cold stare and a cynically amused giggle, "Is that true? As far as I'm aware, I love her. I DON'T LOVE YOU AND I LOVE HER SO MUCH! Perhaps you forgot you cheated on me," I added, grinning.

“Yes, how are we going to appear convincing? You don’t love me.” “Kiss me the way you did at the party and we’ll be fine, trust me.”

when i say i love you, i mean i love the way your eyes shine bright when you talk about something you’re passionate about, be it just how some people get the pronunciation of words wrong or what’s the perfect way to brew a cup of coffee. when i say i love you, i mean i love the way your smile lights up an entire room. how you paste that silly, goofy smile of yours after getting a milkshake moustache. that smile when you see a dog walking towards you and you let it leap on you and cover yourself in animal hair and dirty paws. when i say i love you, i mean i’ll do everything in my power to make you feel like the most special person in this world. i’ll keep telling you that the sky is the limit

“For what?” “For me to dress you up and throw you into the jungle.” “That sounds unsafe.” “I’ll be your spirit guide. Like hot Rafiki.” I was laughing too hard to argue. She suddenly grabbed my phone off the coffee table and began scrolling. “You need to d******d a dating app. Something spicy. I’m thinking... BiteMe.” “Please tell me that’s not real.” “Not yet. But it should be. No vampires, just red flags and sexual tension.” I stole my phone back. “Absolutely not. I don’t need a man right now.”

Still, the thought of it sends my nerves into chaos. “So you mean... I have to pretend to love you?” He nods, holding my gaze. “Can you do it?” The way he asks,the challenge in his voice, the gleam in his eyes,ignites my competitive streak. “Of course I can,” I say, lifting my chin. “It’s no big deal.” He laughs softly. “Alright then. Show me.” “What?” “Show me. Confess your love for me. I’ll judge how good your acting is.”

" Knox!" " Yes." His voice wavered. " I don't know how to act like the old Knox. Yes, I can't be the one you wanted me to be." He exhaled shakily. " But I do like you, as the mafia monster you hate. So can you still accept my love?" I stared at him, tears streaming down my face before I could stop them. My lips trembled as I lowered my gaze, shaking my head slowly. " Are you lying? Or in survival mode? Or is this some coping mechanism to help yourself out of the dilemma -!"

“Here’s what you’ll say. Learn it well. And don’t even think about messing up.” I unfolded the paper with shaking hands. The words were sickening. “I think I’m in love with Kosta.” “I love the way he treats me like the worthless cunt that I am.” “I love the humiliation.” “I wish he’d let me feel him inside me.” I closed my eyes and forced myself to memorize the script, even as nausea churned in my stomach. Kosta clicked on the camera, the red light glowing ominously. I forced the brittle smile onto my cracked lips.

If he can act like he loved me, then I can pretend like I'm ok. I can do this. I won't let them know how much they hurt me.
