If I Stay Gayle Forman Novels & Stories

That’s the debt I’m paying. It’s been almost a month. Gayle called off her wedding to Carlos. She said the accident made her see clearly—she never loved him. Maybe the crash gave us all a brutal sort of clarity. I don’t know. I tuck a strand of hair behind my ear, a nervous habit, as Paul steps back to let me into the penthouse.

He usually has a strong sense of environment so he knows if someone is following him. I sped up walking to catch up with him. There's something strange about him. He doesn't like this. And why the hell does he sleep early? When we got to his vault, Gayle's huge grin greeted us again. "Hi you two, I've already prepared dinner. Let's go eat." He said with a smile. "Just you, I'm full." I heard Saint say. I saw how Gayle's aura changed, her bloodlust. She closed her eyes for a second and when she opened them, the bloodlust in her eyes disappeared again.

If Easton cared so much about his mother, if he hated what his father did to her, why did he turn around and start to do exactly the same thing to me? A slow tear rolls down her cheek. “It pains me that he turned into his father.” “He’s not that bad,” I lie. “He treats me well enough.” Gayle snorts derisively. “Are you trying to convince me or yourself?” She puts her glass aside and rises. “Best run along. He’ll be furious if you are not there when he returns from training.” She starts to leave the parlour, then stops and turns around to look at me. “I’ve heard that there are places for…things like you. Places where your kind are kept safe.”

Then I stood up, walked to the door, and opened it. "Bianca, I've already decided to divorce you. There's no point in clinging to me now. I don't think there's a man in this world who could accept his wife having a child for her first love and then paying to support him. So why not end things cleanly? Wouldn't that be better?" Bianca froze. By the time she reacted, my employees were already watching the two of us. After all, people at work love this kind of explosive gossip. Bianca's face instantly turned red. She stared at me with wide eyes.

Mandy sat up, and knotted her robe. “Leave. There’s no room for you here.” Sadie said straightforwardly, and Mandy tucked her legs inward. “No room?” “Yes.” “What if I say something that will give me a room here?” Mandy asked, looking pleased. “I didn’t come here unprepared. I knew what I was signing up for.” “What do you think you have that would enable you staying here.” Sadie asked defiantly. “Derella’s gay. Juicy news for the family.” Mandy said, picking up her cocktail, and Sadie froze.

She squatted at the door waiting for Shawn to come back. She looked up when she heard the footsteps. Shawn walked past her indifferently. "You're lucky. It was just some scratches." "Oh." Shawn was about to enter the room but suddenly stopped and looked at her sideways, "Gale, marrying me and staying in Temperley Hall is no different from staying in a mental hospital. Understand?" He said, "You're just paying for your sins, just in a different place in a different way." Gale looked up at him and said, "Then can I go back to the mental hospital?"

I stood at the sink, looking out the dark window at my own reflection, and I listened. I listened to the final silence. The click of his watch being fastened. The soft thud of his wallet going into his pocket. Then, the sound of the front door opening. A pause. Then, the sound of it closing. He was gone. I didn’t move. I didn’t cry. I looked at my reflection in the black glass. The woman who had walked out of a gilded cage. The woman who had chosen truth over safety. Now, the man I had chosen was having dinner with the woman who built cages.

Kathie said and smiled evilly. The butler went away to give the security man permission. Kathie waited for the man to come in as she looked out through the window. "Hmm,nice car" She muttered to herself. "OMG! He's handsome too. How come Kylie has everything and all I have is my dad" Kathie grumbled. She opened the door and waved to the man outside for him to come in. Greg wondered who the girl was as she waved at him. He only intended to stay outside and meet Kylie. But since he got a sign to come in,he was gonna go for it.

I just nodded my head. That was the last thing he said before turning away and going back to his office. Is he really gay? But why? Why did he choose to be gay? I held my breath and exhaled. It's a choice, Gillian. That's what he wants, but it's just sad that he's gay. He is now the only male in their clan, and it is so sad that no one will continue their clan. Now I understand why Madam Anastasia is doing this.

Alma scowled at him and snarled, "Why are you smiling?" "I don’t forget anything," Gayle said, his tone cold. "This is a pack matter, and Alpha can handle it. You shouldn't waste your time thinking about it." He walked past her and dashed into his room. Alma gritted her teeth, glaring at his retreating form. Gayle, who would never lift his head in front of her, dared to look her right in the eye and insult her.
