♥ SERENA'S POV ♥
" You know it's not his fault right?" Hero asks, leaning beside my kitchen door.
" Yeah?" I chuckle sadly as I sit down.
" You know most times, we're placed in this situation where we don't have a choice."
" I believe every single person has a choice. It's about facing the consequences that come with the choices."
" I agree though. Same time we're all fucked up. Him especially." Hero smiles apologetically and leaves.
" And one more thing, if you choose to forgive him anytime soon, don't forgive him too easily. He needs to be dealt with a little." Hero says as he walks out.
I chuckle sadly.
Forgive him? Can I even forgive him?I can't do this. I take a deep breath, drawing back the tears as I pick up my phone. Aunt Adele is the first person I need to call." Hey sweet cheeks. You're okay?"
" I'm not." My voi
Chapter 42 ♥ SERENA'S POV ♥" 'Cause I'm leaving the country."God, no.He can't just do that to me.We can't just fight and have issues and he's planning to leave." Good luck then." I twist the doorknob but Judah stops me." Leave me the fuck alone!" I yell at him." You can't just hurt me and make me mad and then come back to me and ask me for forgiveness. It doesn't work like that, Judah. If you wanna go back to Italy, just go. Leave me alone. You're not human Judah. No matter what the reason is, I don't expect you to sedate me and give me to Francis fucking Ryland. You're mean Judah. I forgive you alright, get off my face." I push past him and storm inside the apartment, making sure I lock my door. I sniffle and sob. I hate that I feel this way." Fucking hell." I hear Judah mutter and a thumping sound follows. Did he pu
♥ EPILOGUE ♥ I squeal loudly as I run into the waves.Judah took me to a fucking island.A vacation I've always hoped for.An isolated island with a beautiful home and a man you're in love with by your side.Isn't that dream worthy? Judah sweeps me off my feet as we kiss.We were always kissing ever since we settled our differences. Aunt Adele went back to London the previous day before we came here. Diana threw a big party in her father's house that evening and we party the hell out. I talked with Todd and he apologized for whatever thing he did to me. Summer apologized too. Confessed she's been jealous of me all this while and she envied my life. My fucked up life. Judah took me to Italy and we spent a week there. We visited his neighborhood and it was fun, seriously. Seeing his childhood neighborhood and all that.
I look around my dad’s office as I stare right at the transparent display case. It holds our family's heirloom, a blue diamond. My parents value this a lot and they keep it hidden from the family’s reach. I read through the internet one day and found out this diamond is worth about one billion dollars.” Serena.” I gasp and turn around to see my older twin sister leaning against the door frame of my dad’s office.She crosses her arms and stares at me.” What you doing?” She asks as she smirks at me. Her Olive skin just got a tan. She wears a rip Jean shorts and a tank top.I shrug and look at the family heirloom.” The family’s heirloom. You
" Yes, daddy. That spot... Oh my God..." God!I brace my ears and scrunch my face. This is so embarrassing. I walk out of my bathroom and dry my hair. That didn't stop the moaning from my neighbor's house. It's been two weeks since I lost my parents and sister. My life's been a mess. Despite having Todd, it didn't change a thing. I lived in the mansion for a week and I couldn't take it. I always have countless nightmares of the murder scene and i ended up crying to sleep. I moved out the following week to this nice neighborhood to clear my mind off things. Not until the new neighbor came three days ago. He's always bringing in different women. I know that by their loud moans and different voices." Oh my God...Oh fuck." God this is so gross. Who moans like that? Of course I won't know. I've been running away from sex and I don't even know what it feels
I put up a barely genuine smile as I approach Todd’s table. The waitress won't stop smiling and displaying her products. What a slut. He didn’t even notice me since he is pretty occupied with a waitress. What am I doing here again? I clear my throat as the waitress jolts at once, including Todd. He looks caught off guard. ” Hey babe.” I fake a smile and look at the waitress. She quickly buttons the top buttons of her dress shirt and smiles at me. ” Did I interrupt something?” I choose to ask to ease the tension between them. ” Not really.” The waitress answers. I shake my head and sit in the booth across from Todd’s.
He wraps his arms around my waist and pulls me into his house and shuts his door. I slap his hands away from me as he smiles at me. Wow, his house is pretty. I really didn't expect this type of design and furniture from someone who rides a motorcycle. What is he? A rich guy who ran away from his family to live the type of life he wants? What does he even do for a living? " Damn. That top." He says and bites his lip, looking down at me. I follow his gaze and it lands right on my nipples that are poking through my tank top. He smiles and looks up at my face. " Fucking pervert." I mutter and cross my arms. " I
CHAPTER 5I go to my bedroom and put on a t-shirt over my tank top. For some awkward reasons I thought about Judah. His touch and even his voice is mesmerizing and it annoys me that I'm attracted to him.I stare at my reflection and the faint red mark on my forehead. I touch it and it hurts like hell. I wish I could look properly and not get hypnotized by my very attractive neighbor, I won't be having this bruise by now.I pick up my phone and go back to the living room to watch TV. For some reasons, Judah didn't play his loud songs and I'm grateful.My phone rings at once. I look at the caller ID and it's Todd. I sigh and pick up as I press the phone against my ear while I use my other
CHAPTER 6I quickly get dressed for school as I pick up my orange colored jacket and drape it around my shoulder. I switch off my TV and make sure everything is intact before I walk out of my apartment. I shut the door and walk down the porch.I see Judah leaning against the railings on his porch as he smokes. He sees me and as usual his eyes travel all the way down my body. I ignore him and continue my walk to my car.” Morning, Candy.” He says and throws away his Cancer stick. He walks to my form as I fiddle with my car key.Why are my hands sweaty and why am I anxious to open my car?Oh yeah , it’s because Judah is standing right behind me. I take a deep breath and turn around.&rdquo
