Chapter 31     With every single perfect kiss Judah plants on my skin, I find myself falling for him deeply. He makes me want him badly and sometimes I'm scared. Scared of whatever thing we have. Scared, I'm gonna wake up one morning and this is over.    The realization hurts. No matter how adorable he treats me, I guess I'm still his slampiece. My stomach churns at the thought. In order not to spoil this moment, I push the thought at the back of my head as I look at his green eyes. They watch mine as Judah leans in for a kiss.    The kiss isn't desperate or rushed. It's slow and perfect. " You're okay?" Judah asks as he stops his penetration." Yeah." I breathe out. " You're sure?"   I smile and nod. I should probably forget about what this is and have fun. I should think about getting hurt later, not now. I can't ruin this moment

    Chapter 33     I take a quick shower and hurry out of the bathroom. I look around the bedroom and there's no Judah. He's probably in the kitchen smoking. I look for a blow dryer and hopefully I find one. I blow dry my hair and sit on the dresser chair to straighten my hair.     After picking a dress from all these numerous collections, I slide it up my body. I sit down to apply makeup as my phone rings. I look at the caller ID. " Hey Chloe." I say on the phone after clicking the speakerphone." Damn, Serena. I thought you were gonna call once you land in Los Angeles."" Shit, I'm sorry. I got pretty occupied by the view. Hollywood's amazing." " So when did you arrive?"" Not quite long. What's up with you? And Thomas?"   She giggles on the phone." I'm great, Serena. Thomas is cool. Sadly he's stuck with Bree. I think he finally told her h

Chapter 35       I stare at this camera on my countertop and think of who to call.  Judah or maybe Phoebe. Who would do this? How come I'm just seeing this? I run my hands down my hair and itch it. I'm going insane. One tiny little heirloom is trying to consume my life and I don't even know what to do with myself anymore.  Who would plant a camera in my kitchen? And that's when something clicks. What if it's everywhere in my house? I carry a kitchen stool and take it to the living room. I drop it close to the wall and climb on it.    And that's when I see another one. I pull it out and go to the extreme of the living room. Another one. I throw them on the floor and sigh. This has passed becareful.  " Damn it, my bedroom." I hurriedly went to my room and searched for any cameras. There are none. I breathe in a sigh of relief and sit down on my bed.      

  Chapter 37                     ♥ SERENA'S POV ♥" Serena." I'm already down the hallway when someone grabs my forearm.   Without turning back, I know who it is. Of course it's Judah, you can easily tell. I turn to face him." What? You should be with Mercedes."" Why?" He asks.   Is he insane? Or is he high or what? I look into his eyes and there's nothing wrong with him. They are the perfect shades of green that I've always admired." Serena." The girls waltzes in.   They stare at me and Judah as they shift their gaze to my form." It looks like you're safe. We are gonna be inside." They say and walk back inside one after the other." You know this can't work right? You don't just take a girl to her dream vacation and ignore her calls afterwards. And there you're with some other gi

Chapter 39     Wait.I thought my father's friend, Francis Ryland died months ago in Cuba. What the hell is going on that I'm not even aware of. " I need to go." I say as I proceed to follow Genevieve and Francis. Todd pulls me back." Where are you going?"" Let go of me." I grit out.   He nods and lets go of my hand." What do you even want from me? What do y'all want from me? You know I just witnessed a miracle today. I saw my father's old friend who's supposed to be dead."" Who?"" Francis fucking Ryland."" That wasn't Francis. You are mistaking him for someone else." I roll my eyes and walk back into the tavern.   I need to get the hell out of here. I stop by our table." I'm sick. I wanna go home." I say." Why? Something wrong? What did Todd say to you?" Diana asks ." Nothing, I'm fine. I'm gonna call an Uber, you gu
