Ace left to make breakfast when I decided to spend more time in the washroom, taking a shower. Now that he wasn’t with me, memories of last night floated back into my mind. My hands tightened on the basin. I tried not to think, but I failed. I still couldn’t believe Warner could do something…

I was right. His jealousy and insecurities were the reason behind his behavior. But no matter how much I wanted to ask why he felt that way, I wouldn’t. I wouldn’t make the same mistake again. I’d give him the space he needed. No matter how eager I was. “It’s all right. I understand,” I…

“Come, there’s more.” Curious, I followed him closely as he went around his desk and got out an album from a drawer. An album full of his and Caleb’s pictures, there were Tess and Tobias’s pictures as well. “These are from our high school and college,” he said, standing beside me as I flipped the…

He even bought this house for us. But he was still uncertain. He still had this fear that I’d leave him. Rising on my tiptoes, I cupped his cheeks, holding his gaze. “I promise. I’ll never leave you. Never ever. No matter what happens.” Exhaling a sigh, he pulled me into his passionate kiss. Not…

I cleared my throat. “Yeah, sorry. I was just a little worried for her.” His mood changed again as he smiled. Adoration filled his eyes as they roamed me again. “I know. My Em is always concerned for everyone.” Sliding closer, he grasped my hand. “Did I ever tell you this color suits you? It…

My eyes went back to the closed door of his bedroom. I hesitated. Then the words he spit out earlier rang in my head again. The ache in my heart added fresh fuel to my anger. Gritting my teeth, I wiped my cheeks furiously. “Goodbye, Achilles Valencian!” “No! Don’t you dare, Emerald—“ I slammed the…
