Now Suddenly You're Asking For It Back Novels & Stories

“Sure you can, but I’ve done it now.” “I’m paying you back.” “I’m sure you will, Els.” “Will you stop calling me that?” “Will you stop lyin’ about why you’re here?”

“The bra is originally yours. It’s not a problem to return it to you...” Before he could finish his sentence, Ynes exploded with anger. “So, you’re still keeping that bra?” ‘Uh, this... You want me to return the bra. Could it be that you’re scamming me?’ “Do you have a grudge against Donovan Orlando?” Ynes suddenly asked about something else. “Kind of!”

"A loan?" "A loan. You pay him back when you can." I thought about it. "I'll think about it." "That's all I ask."

Then I turned to a passing colleague and asked: "Want to buy this crystal necklace for fifty dollars?" My colleague laughed: "That brand isn't cheap. You're really selling it to me?" I nodded. We made the exchange right there—money for goods. Watching this scene, Dominic's face went deathly pale. "You... how could you..." I laughed softly: "Dominic, isn't this exactly how you treated me for ten years? Do you really think we could ever have a future together?" Dominic stared at me deeply, as if nailed to the spot. The next day, I heard from the restaurant where he worked that he had returned to Stormfang Pack.

It was something I would never unsee if I mistakenly saw it. Then it rang. Out of instincts, I grabbed it and picked the call. "Who is this?" I said in a monotone voice. "Give me back my damn phone!" I flinched at the way the voice shouted. "I didn't steal it, you have mine." I rolled my eyes, recognizing the voice immediately. "I don't have time for your stupid games. I need that phone." He said. "You have no right to speak rudely to me. I can drop the phone in water you know." I frowned.

“What?” Jasmine set her phone down, leaned in. “You disappear for days, don’t answer my calls, and now you just show up all... weird and moody?” She shoved a cup toward me. “You owe me an explanation. And a large pizza.” I wrapped my hands around the coffee. How the hell do I even say this? “I’m going back,” I said finally. Jasmine blinked. “Back? To him?” I nodded, jaw tightening. Her face twisted like she just tasted something bitter. “Why?”

Until someone left. Until someone gave up. Until someone stopped waiting. The silence stretched between them. Then Damian asked quietly: "Can I ask you something?" Amelia hesitated. Then nodded. "What was the moment?" His voice was barely above a whisper. "The moment you stopped loving me." The question hit harder than expected. Because there wasn't one. Not really. Amelia stared into her tea. For a long moment she didn't answer. When she finally spoke, her voice was soft. "I never stopped."

“I know.” We stayed silent for a while. Then I said, “I’m not going to beat around the bush. I didn’t ask you here to flirt or pretend nothing happened.” “I didn’t expect that,” he said quickly. “Say what’s on your mind. I’ll listen.” I took a deep breath. “If you want me back,” I said, meeting his eyes, “you have to earn it.” He opened his mouth, but I raised my hand. “Without money,” I added. “Without power. There will be no gifts, tricks and playing with people or connections. gifts.”

Heat pricked at the back of my neck, old anger, and old hunger coiling together into something far more dangerous. “Because everything they gave me after breaking that contract? Every deal, every territory, every favor, they fucking clawed it back the moment they got power. Salvatore’s little bitches stripped me clean like vultures,” my jaw flexed, “So now I’ve got nothing in exchange for that broken promise.” Remo’s voice dropped, “So, are you going to ask for... ” I stepped in, cutting him off with a look that made him swallow, “Yes,” I said, “I’m going to ask for Alessia again.”

She leaned back again and looked up at them with a smirk. "Even if I do that, will Adrian obey me?" Adrian and Benjamin were silent, not answering Nadine's question. "He won't, right? Besides, I actually wanted to cancel our wedding. Isn't it right Adrian?" Benjamin gaped at Nadine's statement. "Huh!!! Is that so brother?" Adrian didn't want to answer Benjamin's question. He remained silent and glared at Nadine. "Never mind.... I don't want to seek your attention. I also don't want to cause trouble for either of you. I just want to fix my problems with you and pay my debts to you. So cooperate with me, will you?"
