Chapter 352
“That’s one way to joke about it,” I smiled, shaking my head and maybe trying to convince myself he didn’t mean to say that. Maybe it was his way of calming his nerves down.
I tried to convince myself, but the intense look he was giving me would drag me back to reality.
“I said what I said. I want to kiss you, touch you an—,” before he could keep talking, I rushed and placed my hand on his mouth to silence him.
“Don’t say it again,” I uttered with my heart pounding loudly in my chest.
“Why?” grabbing my wrist, he removed my hand from his mouth and dragged me closer.
“You were the one who gave me the option to ask you anything. But now that I am telling you what can calm me down, you are pulling away from me.” He grunted, his eyes scanning my face hungrily.
“May–nard! Things have changed. You have a mate, a fiancé, who is a lovely person. I would not want you to throw everything out just because you are angry at me and want to punish me,” I muttered, trying to free my wrist and looking away when he deepened his stare at my face.
“Kissing me is a punishment?” He sounded upset. “I don’t care if you hid anything from me. I don’t care what your mother did to me. I don’t fucking care what Christina will think of me because, right at this moment, it’s hard to see you and not be able to touch you.” He pulled me even closer, and I landed on his chest.
128 MB “Stop! I don’t want to betray anyone.” I tried to get away from him, but he had wrapped his other arm around my back and caged me tightly.
“So you are admitting that you are only holding back because of the others?” He whispered, and my body shuddered at his words.
“No!” I finally freed myself and jumped away from him. I landed on my buttocks, watching him stare at my face.
“You had me. You had every day to touch me, to kiss me, but you decided to leave me without even talking to me. It was so easy for you to just plan our breakup. You could have come to me to find a solution instead of my elimination from your life,” I said it all in tears and watched his jaw meet the floor.
“Do you think I’m stupid and would believe whatever story you tell me? You were upset and worried about the whole assassination plan of your mother against me, but you also assassinated my character when you were bad-mouthing me. to your friends. That wasn’t part of the plan. That was just your disappointment in our sex life, and instead of talking to me about it, you ratted it out to your friends,” I finally got the courage to get up on my feet and look down upon him, saying, “You claimed I was boring, so why do you want to be with this boring person now?” | finished what I wanted to say and then walked back inside the room once it was confirmed he wasn’t upset about the diary thing.
Only I know how I lived those days of betrayal. Once I had rested in the bed, I fell asleep.
