Duke Please Stop Because It Hurts Novels & Stories

I told him, yet I indulged him. "Mira," he called suddenly, pausing mid-lunch at a nearby café. His eyes reflected inner turmoil. My stomach tightened. "Dad doesn’t approve of my painting. He hates it. Lizzy and Mom don’t care. I love it, Mira. Why doesn’t he see that? It’s exhausting. This is what I find joy in, and they neglect it." He groaned, holding his head. His voice shook. It was the first time I had ever heard him confess pain. I felt his pain. It reminded me of myself.

From my experience, lying unconscious is better than enduring this pain. It is always like this. "That's enough! Young man, stop it now!" A familiar voice erupts the hall and Duke immediately stops as he turns. Mr. Roacher grabs his shoulder as he growls. "If you hit him again, it won't be a warning this time." "What's up with you, teach?" He scoffs before Duke gives him a haughty smirk. "You get to act like you care now that the deadline is nearing?" "I don't give a damn about that now! What you're doing is straight-up abuse!"

,I nod. "sorry I get up to pee a lot",I sigh. After leaving I try to head home but Duke stops me. "want to grab food?",I don't meet his eyes. He looks at me and I avert my eyes. "sorry I need a nap",I walk off my guards following. Duke pov

Lara said softly, trying to soothe the storm brewing in her friends’ eyes. “Calm down?” Duke echoed, eyes burning. “How do you expect us to calm down after hearing all that? You’ve been enduring that kind of hell in silence, and we had no clue. Fuck—” his voice cracked. “I can’t even begin to imagine how painful that must’ve been for you.”

Duke is groaning in so much pain while holding on his chest. “Look at yourself, Duke. You are already a mess,” I said to him, “You can still stop and change this.” Duke laughed insanely but I can feel on him the pain and the anger. “Even if I change this, I lost everything that I can never bring back even my old life.” He glared on me. “So, for the fairness of our situation, I will make you feel lost even if I died here!” He quickly run where he putted Marie.

“Duke doesn’t like men who hurt women. You could say it’s a line that, when crossed, has him committing murder. He just got out of prison for the second time. He’ll have no problem pretending your head is a pumpkin and leaving it in pieces before we go.” Miles’s face turns the color of boiling lobster. “I can’t breathe,” he gasps in a strangled voice. You would think Duke had him by the throat. “Good,” Dax replies, his smile still in place. “Your smashed head won’t hurt so bad if you pass out first. Knowing Duke here, though, he’ll wake you up before he caves in your skull.” “Please.” His eyes scramble around the room looking for help that isn’t there. “They never came back. Went on a call a

“You don’t have to know everything about the business I have with anyone.” “Yeah right, but you have to know mine.” “Stop being childish.” Childish?! “Please get out.” “Baby love, I didn’t mean that I’m sorry.” “Get the fuck out.” Duke is refusing to leave the room, I’m angry, clenching my fist to stop myself from doing anything rational. “Awwww, are the forever love birds fighting. Ohh you look very angry sis.” What the fuck?! “Don’t call me that. Duke, what the fuck is she doing here?”

What happened to you two? Duke paused. "I hurt her," he admitted. "Do not cheat or physically harm her, but rather doubt her. I allowed my pride and insecurities to take over. I believed something that was not true and walked away rather than asking her. I did not fight. I abandoned her when she just needed someone to believe in her. I have spent every day regretting my decision. I have tried to move on, but I will never stop loving her. I'm sorry, Mam, I hurt your precious daughter like what I did five years ago. I was a jerk and arrogant."

“You are a natural. Better than your brother.” Duke laughs a little at Ingrid. He dances with Ada through the contractions and sings to her as they dance. “You taught me how to dance,” Duke sings moving Ada around. “Thank you, Duke,” Ada sighs. “This feels so good.” “It would feel better with a completed bond and if this was my pup,” Duke mumbles with an eyeroll. Ada turns her head sightly and looks at him. “I’m sorry I hurt you. I can’t explain why I did it, but I felt it was right at the time.”

“He branded you with desperation. I can still taste it. But what he built on fear… I can rebuild with power.” I jerked back, breath catching. “Don’t touch me.” He smiled faintly, withdrawing his hand. “Not yet.” The room felt smaller. The walls seemed to pulse. The runes glowed a faint crimson before fading again. My mind screamed get out get out get out, but my body wouldn’t move. Duke rose to his full height, every inch of him composed, calm. “I know what you saw hurt you,” he said. “That was the point. Pain teaches faster than words. It makes loyalty real.”
