Trust In Me Jennifer L Armentrout Novels & Stories

"You don't trust me? After all this time, you still think I can't resist a woman?" Jennifer shook off his hand. "Have you forgotten what you did in the past? You were entangled with Rachel for so long. How am I supposed to trust you? Maxwell, I've grown fearful and can't trust you anymore!" Maxwell's heart sank. He shook his head and smiled bitterly. "I never thought you would still doubt me after everything we've been through. And it's all because of Madison, a woman I can barely remember, no less." Jennifer retorted harshly, "You made too many mistakes in the past, so it's only natural for people to doubt you!"

But I couldn’t trust anyone. In my years as Alpha, I never trusted a single soul. Not even my Beta or my Gamma. Tristan, my former Beta, was a clear example that even if you grew up together, it didn’t mean they would be on your side. I was still on my quest to find the female he was working with when he decided to betray me. I caught him in a video call with her, but all I saw was a female’s legs as she walked back to pick up her phone. She was wearing short cotton shorts, showing a portion of her tattooed thigh.

“Did you team with Damon to betray me? Are you scheming against me?” Jenny’s eyes widened, her hands tightening around the documents. “Shifu… I would never do that. You are my best friend. I might have done… okay, I did something that might make you question my loyalty, considering your paranoia right now. You may hesitate to trust me. But I want you to know — I didn’t do it on purpose. I would never, ever betray you. Please, get that clear in your head.” Her voice cracked, pleading.

Jennelyn said sadly. Amber met the fake Jennifer’s eyes emotionlessly. She didn't feel pity for her, even though she was staring at her with tears. Jenny rolled her eyes when her impostor left the room. She looked as if she was bullied. When she remembered Amber, she immediately picked up the medicine and made her drink. "Don't trust her, especially if she gives you something to drink without me around." She strictly instructed Amber after making her drink water. Amber nodded sadly to express her approval. In her current state, she didn't want to trust anyone other than her and Yazed.

“Nothing… just… you know. Making sure things don’t get worse.” I turn back to Kael, irritation still simmering. “If you don’t trust me that much, relying on a video to prove my innocence feels unnecessary.” Kael’s eyes soften as he glances toward Cassandra’s wound. “Look at the blood, Amy. Who would do that to themselves? I trust you, but I also need to be fair in my judgment.” I let out a soft scoff, shaking my head. “You really need a video to believe me?” I mutter, walking past him.

How do you measure betrayal? Is it the act? The silence afterward? The way it crushes whatever trust you’d just started to rebuild? My phone buzzed. Jeff. I didn’t answer. Instead, I opened my notes app and typed: Trust is a garden. You can water it for years, and one fire can still turn it to ash. I stayed away for three days. Jeff called. Texted. Sent messages through Aria. Through Marcus. Through anyone he thought I might still listen to. I ignored them all.

"But you don't." "I want to." She wrapped her arms around herself. "But Adrian, I've been deceived before. Everyone I trusted turned out to have agendas I didn't know about. And now your mother is flying to New York, and some journalist is telling me Raina's conception was orchestrated, and I just…" "You think I'm like the everyone?" Adrian's voice went flat. "No. That's not what I'm saying." "It's exactly what you're saying." He stepped back. "I've done everything I can to earn your trust. I told you things I've never told anyone. I stood beside you through every battle. And at the first sign of something complicated, you assume I'm lying."

I didn’t think he was capable of murdering a woman he said he loved for so many years. If he can do this to Lily…what can he do to my family? What… “ He will never get his hands on you or our family. You have to trust me. ” Tristin whispers against my quivering mouth. I lean into his touch and nod. I trust him more than I can ever put into words. Slowly, Tristin leans away and leads me to the couch in the corner. He helps me sit down and drops beside me, holding my hands as if he knows I need it.

Jennifer said. "For example," I said, rolling my eyes. Jennifer's face got serious. She put her hands on mine. "I get what you're sharing with me is private. Secret. You're basically telling me what turns you on. It means a lot to me that you trust me with this. It won't change how I feel about you in any way. I promise, I won't judge." Mollified, I went back to my room and picked out two of the most vanilla stories I could find. There was other stuff I liked a lot more, but these were solid, and they were safe. I copied the links and texted them to Jennifer.

Dan took the business card, glanced at my title, and immediately grabbed my hands with both of his. "I knew you could make it! That company only functioned because of you! When we terminated the contract back then, I actually felt quite sorry. But you know, Martin's just too unreliable. "Now that you're handling tech at Cloudwave, we absolutely have to work together again! I've got a 200-million-dollar deal sitting in my hands, but I couldn't find any provider I trust. But as long as you're in charge, Ms. Chapman, I'll gladly sign with Cloudwave."
