Bedmates Soulmates novel Chapter 325

A Scene Straight Out Of A Romcom 

Was that why she agreed to wear them despite complaining about the chafing

She had looked so excited, her eyes shining with anticipation

She’d suggested the mall, the park, even an ice skating rink 

She had really, really wanted to go on a date with him

But what about him

When she was getting herself all prettied up, all he thought of was the look on Gideon’s face when he saw Kira

Austyn had picked out the little black dress because its low collar would put the hickeys on her clavicles on full display

The plan was hatched when be heard Gideon’s call to Kira during dinner last night

Kira was right; he had used her

He was hoping to goad Gideon into losing his temper, into throwing the first punch

Then Kira, who always sided with the victim, would turn against Gideon

But Gideon didn’t rise to the bait

Not at first

Austyn’s plan achieved nothing except getting Kira mad at him

He got back into the Hummer and started the engine

The car left the hospital compound

He saw Kira walking ahead

She was barefoot and lurching 

People were whispering and pointing, but she paid them no heed

Anger rose in Austyn’s chest as he looked on

He stopped the car and jumped out 

Kira was muttering under her breath, cursing the arrogant, selfish man who turned his back on her

Bastard!! 

her fault, yet he was the one to stomp 

Kira almost twisted her ankle when she stepped on another pebble 

She grimaced in pain

She heard giggling 

A kid was pointing at her and laughing 

He must 

think she was a mental patient who escaped from the hospital

Kira made a face at the boy 

She kept on walking, having no idea where she was going 

She squealed when she suddenly found herself airborne

She grabbed the person’s anos instinctively

When she looked up, she saw

What was he doing here

Didn’t he leave

Why did he come back

Austyn’s face

Kira forgot to scream and just stared at him

She could see his perfect jawline and part of a five o’clock shadow

When he set her down on a bench, she was still staring 

Austyn’s broad back blocked out the blazing sun

Kira looked up

She couldn’t see the look on his face as the sun was coming from behind him

His head was shrouded in a golden halo.. 

Kira squinted. Why did you come back?” 

Austyn pursed his lips

He examined her feet. Sit still

Then he turned around and headed for the car

Kira was left sitting on the bench in confusion

Why was he walking off again

But before she had time to get worked up again, Austyn returned

He was carrying the pair of Manolo Blahniks

He stopped in front of Kira, bent down, held her ankle, and helped her put on the shoes

Kira was so stunned that she forgot to move

Pedestrians stopped and gawked

The tall and handsome man was getting down on one knee in front of the beautiful but dishevelled woman

It was a scene straight out of a romcom
