Kiara stared at Zane with wide eyes then scoffed and yanked her hand out of his grip.
“Yeah whatever. Go order the food already, I'm hungry" Zane frowned as he stared at her. He had just professed his love to her and she totally ignored it? That honestly felt like a slap in the face.
When Kiara heard the door close after Zane left, she let out the breath she had been holding.
When Zane told her he still loved her, her heart skipped a beat. She knew deep down that she still loved him no matter how hard she tried to deny it, no matter how hard she tried to cover up her love for him with hate and blame him for the way her life turned out, she still loved him.
He was the first man she ever loved, the first man she had ever laid with and the first man that made her feel loved. She remembered how both of them couldn't go a day without seeing each other and always find a way to meet even if the other person was super busy.
That period he went to Paris was embedded in her mind. She had called him wailing hopelessly and begging him to come back because Samantha was being a pain in the butt and her parents had taken Samantha's side. Heather hadn't been feeling fine at that time so Zane was the only one she thought to call.
After she called him, she had been surprised when he arrived at the pack the next day even though his meeting hadn't ended yet.
“I couldn't stay there knowing the love of my life was hurting here" Those were the exact words he had said to her that day yet, he had been the one who turned his back on her without even giving her a second chance.
Why was she still in love with him after all these years?
She sighed then stood up from the bed and walked towards her luggage before picking out a nightgown she had bought from the stores that day. The staff at the store were very adamant on her taking this particular night gown and since it was free and was her style, of course she took it.
She shook off all thoughts of Zane as she walked into the bathroom. She stood under the shower and immediately felt better when the water ran down her body.
By the time she came out and got dressed, she felt truly refreshed and her mind seemed to be more open. In fact, she felt free all of a sudden after coming to terms with her current situation.
She glanced at herself in the mirror then sighed before walking out of the room.
She walked into the living room and found Zane seated on the couch with his legs crossed as he scrolled through his phone but as soon as he noticed her presence, he turned towards her and a smile appeared on his face.
As his eyes trailed down her body, even though she was fully clothed, she suddenly felt naked.
