DELVINThe only sound I could here around me for the past hour or so was that of my labored breathing. I had tried every possible means to get back on track and be strong but my condition only seem to worsen.I was in pain, I was devastated, confused, traumatized, I was in a depth of despair and the only logical cure to my pain is Laura.I had gone from trailing around the house, sitting in a corner to sending everything that comes my way flying to the opposite direction but nothing I did seems to ease my pain, not even for a second.It doesn’t help that everything around hear some how link down to her. Everything is associated to her and the memories we had. Everything kept shoving itself at my face reminding me of how dare she was to my heart.I saw her everywhere. From her favorite couch where she enjoy resting to the exact spot she would stand in the kitchen.I got up slowly to head to the room but immediately decided against it and lazily crash back on the couch.The bedroom is t
LAURA.I stood a few inches taller than Amy, I had been telling about how Lillian had showed up in the apartment and how I had treated her. It was frustrating the manner at which I spoke about it and when I got to the part when she hurried away it got her laughing."You mean, you got her to leave." Amy looked at me Shocked.It was as though that was the most difficult thing to do."Yes, I did." I stood looking at her.As we were still speaking we heard Steve's car, the light filled the room and I listened as his voice filled the foyer.Dennis, who had been distracted and quiet all this while, appeared to be the most excited as he dashed to meet him where he was.Steve had a smile over his face, it was exciting seeing an Alpha and a gentleman in just one individual and more exciting considering the way he pulled it off most of the time.As he neared where we were, I had the sudden urge to to avert my gaze andfocus it eye-level on his black tie, but it felt like he’d be having the wi
LAURAI could feel his breath on my face, just a little move further with my head and that’s it we are kissing, Just a little move further but unfortunately for me it didn’t happen cause I hesitated for a bit and I was abruptly brought out of my trance like state by the sound of Dennis cry.I jolt away from him like he was on fire, breathing heavily like I just ran a marathon. I didn’t even realize I had stopped breathing throughout all these until we were apart.“Excuse me” I murmured softly and turned my back to him, walking away from him toward Dennis. I picked him up and parted his back in an attempt to get him to keep quiet and ease his discomfort which I succeeded because soon he was back to sleeping, snoring softly which earned a full heartedly smile from me.I dropped him back down on the bed and made my way out of the room. Getting myself a glass of water for the night, I gently lay on my bed and closed my eyes, attempting to get some sleep before the sun would rise.**The l
STEVFrom where I stood making a business call, I could see clearly the dead stares both Lillian and Laura were giving each other.It’s close to lunchtime so I just decided to come home and have lunch before heading out again and of course Lillian decided to tag along.I didn’t think that would be much of an issue when I allowed her to come with me. Plus it will be a bonus for me cause deep down I want to make Laura jealous. I know that is a bit petty coming from me but I love her and I want to try every possible means to make her see that.But I was beginning to rethink my decision of letting Lillian come along with me seeing how she cling to me like a second skin. I tried shrugging her away multiple times but she wouldn’t budge which was starting to get really annoying.My vision collided with Laura’s for a second but she quickly looked away, not before giving me a dead stare of course. I would say my plan to get her jealous is actually working, seeing as if looks could kill, both m
LAURAI know I don’t have the right to decide who he brought into his house but I cannot help the uncontrollable rage I felt as I watched Lillian cling herself to him.I was so hungry but just having to sit in the same space with the two of them together made me immediately lose my appetite. I kept telling myself that I have no right to feel how I felt but I just can’t help it.There is this lump that forms in my throat whenever I see them together. A raging fire in my heart that won’t go away until I am out of their sight, which made me make the wise choice of getting the hell out of the dining room earlier.“Mummy?” Dennis sprang his full weight onto my sitting form, startling me in the process.“Hey, you can’t just creep on people like that. It’s not nice” I attempted to scold him but failed when a wide smile spread across my face by looking at the crazy faces he was making just to get me to crack.“But I kept calling you, you didn’t answer” he tried to defend himself.“Fine but ne
LAURAWe were immediately engulfed in silence. The type of silence that when a pin drops, its sound doesn’t get past your hearing. Both I and Amy watched in complete awe as she made her way toward the table we are currently sitting at. She waltzed her way through and sat down at the very head of the table.I tried, I tried as much as I can to not let whatever she is doing get to me. I know she is trying to get a reaction out of me and so far she is almost getting successful but I still held my head high and refused to let her get to me.Instead I focus my energy on holding the glass up in my hand. Instead of snapping at her, I channel the energy to the cup, squeezing it as tight as I can. She smiled in acknowledgment at Amy and when she finally turned to gaze at me, a look of mockery all over her face, I snapped.“I will not let her get me to” I kept chanting in my head while I gave her the sweetest smile I could muster and turned my head away from her, not waiting to see her reacti

STEVEI was feeling frustrated and annoyed at how the whole event had turned up, this wasn't how I had planned things to be. And now, Lillian is here, I wonder what she's up to, she shouldn't even be here, she's the reason why Laura isn't listening to me.I walked over to search for Laura, in a few minutes, I had found her. I grabbed her wrist and took her into the mansion, she looked surprised and excited at the same time, I could easily read her expression.“Steve,” She called in a soft voice, I wasn't moved by it, I was angry at that moment.“Take your seat, we need to talk,” I said and pointed at the couch, she stared at me for a while, but later went to sit on the couch. I sat on the couch beside her and stared at her.“What is it, Steve? Why did you drag me here?” She asked.“I think you have to stop coming around Lillian,” I said without sparing her a glance, she looked manipulative, and I wondered what she's up to this time around.“Why Steve? Is there anything wrong in visit
