Ch. 101..105: Fatal Kiss Of The Vampire Chapter 101-105

Chapter 101: Disgusting Video

His face was still, perfect as usual, and a small serene smile formed on his lips, as it usually did when he was talking to the love of his life.

“Thank you.” Kylie simply replied, lowering her head in embarrassment even though she knew no one was listening. “I thought you had a meeting today?” Kylie asked as she checked her wristwatch, a Rolex wristwatch that Ethan had gifted to her on her birthday.

“Yes, but you are more important than my work.” Again Kylie blushed at Ethan’s sensual voice proclaiming her importance for him

“Are you trying to please me with your words?” Kylie murmured questioningly.

“Of course not. Not just with words.” Ethan’s calm voice oozed over her senses.

Kylie frowned at his statement, “What do you mean?”

Ethan smiled, “Nothing. Hey, I have to go. Work calls. I’ll talk to you later.” With that, he hung up the phone.

After hanging up, Ethan Parker held his phone for a while and made a decision. He dialed Elliot, “Book two tickets to Saint Martin for me.”

***

Khloe was in a constant state of anxiety and depression. The darkness seemed to swallow her whole wherever she turned. Her reputation had been shattered after the release of that video. Every news and entertainment site had dug deep into that video, identifying her, the location, the man, and what was said during the interaction. Even the people dancing around them had come forward trying to bask in the fame.

The male in the video was identified to be a director of a movie in which Khloe was playing the lead star. Everyone was cursing Khloe on the Internet and defaming all her social media accounts so much so that her father had to block all of them. Promptly after the release, she had been let go from almost all of her contracts. Even her friends and boyfriend had abandoned her.

On top of that, the fans she had hired had come clean and confessed that Khloe had been the one to pay them in order to disgrace Kylie Finch. They announced that they had shut down the Instagram fan account and publicly apologized to Kylie. All the evidence pointed towards Khloe, and after looking at all the comments on the Internet, Khloe knew it was over for her.

Alice’s heart ached at the pain her daughter was going through. Cradling her in her arms, Alice tried to comfort her, “Khloe, stay strong. Even if you lose everything, you still have your family. You still have Aiden. Don’t blame yourself. This is NOT your fault!”

Khloe looked up into her mother’s eyes and realized she was right. She had lost everything, but she still had Aiden, and she would make it damn sure Aiden remained hers.

***

Aiden had been holed up in his room for hours. As Khloe’s boyfriend, Aiden was deeply humiliated. He could not believe how low Khloe had stooped. Everyone tried to comfort him, but he could not help but feel guilty at how he had treated Kylie. He had dumped Kylie for what? Someone like Khloe who cheated on him just for a role in a movie? Someone who was willing to degrade herself like that?

Despicable was the only word that came to mind when Aiden recalled the disgusting video.

There were four other actors, two male, and two female, shooting alongside Kylie for Extreme Luxury. When Kylie saw who they were, her jaw dropped open. Three of them were internationally acclaimed models who were all over Instagram. Kylie instantly felt self-conscious as she looked down at herself, what was she doing here?

The photographer apparently felt the same way she did as soon as he saw her, a deep frown formed on his face.

“No, no, no, what is this?” He asked in a thick Italian accent while pointing towards Kylie. “Too stiff, like a stick! Loosen up, loosen up!” He demanded loudly. While Kylie looked great, she did not have much experience with modeling and posing naturally. She was more of an actor than a model, really.

Faith dragged her over to the side away from the pestering photographer and exclaimed, “He’s right, Jules! Loosen up, and you’re too stiff. Give yourself a shake and let your body move. Remember, we are not acting here but rather trying to be as natural as possible.”

Kylie nodded in understanding and tried to block out everything else so she could just act natural.

Kylie was given a grey fit and flare lace dress. The silky material slid down her body and caressed her every curve. The stiffness of the lace gives it form just where she needed it while the sleeves were sheer, and the neckline was an elegant scalloped round neck. This was paired up with a rose grey ankle strap sandal with a three-inch block heel. Kylie was thankful that since marrying Ethan, she had gotten good practice in carrying herself in high heels; otherwise, she would be laying flat on the floor after her first step.

Next came makeup, which Kylie was excited about. However, the makeup artist scared her. She was a short, plump girl but seemed like someone who took no shit from anyone. Kylie decided not to say a word and simply watched as the girl worked her magic. To complement the grey tone of the dress, the makeup artist gave her a golden-bronze smokey eye with a gray liner. When the whole look was completed, Kylie had to give it to the girl, and she definitely knew what she was doing.

Standing among the other actors and actresses, Kylie looked beautiful, but her stance gave away her lack of confidence. The photographer, whose name was Mike, walked over towards her and commanded, “This shoot is about ‘determination.’ No matter how old you are, if you work hard for something you want, you can be the most beautiful person. When you stand in front of the camera, be confident. Be powerful. Go after what you want!”

Kylie was surprised at his intensity and nodded quickly. “Okay.”

Mike sighed and turned around, muttering to himself. Kylie glowered in anger as she thought she heard “It’s no use” from his lips. Yes, it was true she had no experience in modeling, but that did not mean she was an imbecile.

 

Chapter 102: Kidnapped Five Years Ago

“Let’s have single photos first,” Mike demanded. He started with the famous actors and actresses first, hoping Kylie would learn from them. Kylie stood at the corner and studied how they were posing. The theme was determination, and if anyone knew about determination, it would be Kylie. She had experienced so much in her life, so she just needed to be herself during the shoot.

“Kylie Finch, you’re next.”

Kylie walked out with confidence even though her heart was hammering. No matter how many times she walked out on a stage or in front of a large crowd, she would never get over that initial stage fright. Taking a deep breath, Kylie loosened her body and turned towards Mike.

“Yes! That’s it. Be confident!” Mike approved, even though he knew Kylie would not last. He decided he would not give her another chance if she screwed it up in the first few tries. His time was too precious to be wasted on people who knew jack shit about modeling. Really, he thought this was a joke when they first told him the model would be Kylie Finch, but apparently not.

“Get ready! On three…” Mike shouted.

Kylie squared her shoulders, leaned to one side and looked at the camera while flipping her hair. Then, she put another hand on her shoulder and bent down as if picking something up from the ground. While still bending, she looked at Mike, holding the camera and winked.

When did Kylie Finch, the actress, turned into a supermodel.

She surprised everyone, including the famous actors and actresses who were all watching her intently. Inside Kylie’s eyes, one could see a passion and deep desire for a new life. Her strength and determination shined through by the fierceness of her gaze. However, her overall stance was soft and feminine. She was like a sunrise, soft but powerful.

Everyone watching was shocked, including Mike. The woman in front of him was a completely different person! Where was the shy and timid girl who he was berating? Mike swallowed his surprise and continued capturing pictures, not wanting to miss even a single second.

What astonished him the most was that every time Kylie changed her position, she looked fantastic.

Meanwhile, Kylie had no clue what she was portraying to everyone watching. She was too focused on the shooting, and before she knew it, Mike motioned for her to stop. When she looked at her cell, Kylie was surprised to see that an hour had passed already.

Faith ran over and hugged her tightly, “Oh my God, Kylie! You were so awesome!” She then leaned closer and whispered, “Everyone was so jealous of you! Look at their sour faces.” Sure enough, Kylie saw the other model’s side-eyeing her as she casually looked around at everyone. Mike was beaming, however, and that was the only opinion that mattered to Kylie.

After changing her clothes and removing the makeup, Kylie was back to being lazy as she usually was. The shoot had taken a lot out of her, and she only wanted to relax with a hot cup of tea in her room. Faith trotted inside with a box donuts making Kylie laugh.

“I thought you were on a diet?” Kylie scoffed.

“Well, today is a day of celebration,” Faith answered while munching on a Krispy Kreme donut. “Oh, by the way, Aiden called a couple of times while you were shooting,” Faith added nonchalantly.

Kylie immediately grabbed her cell and looked at the missed calls.

“Aiden? Why would he be calling?” Kylie asked.

“Beats me,” Faith shrugged her shoulders.

As if on cue, Kylie’s cell phone started ringing again, with Aiden being the caller. She looked up at Faith with wide eyes.

“Pick it up! Ask him what she wants. Remember what Mike said, be confident!” Faith preached.

Kylie nodded and confidently picked up, “Hello?”

“Kylie, it’s me. Aiden.”

“Yes, I know. What do you want?” Kylie retorted.

“Did you watch the news?” Aiden sounded a little hoarse, and his voice seemed to be trembling.

“What news?” Kylie put the phone on speaker and motioned Faith to come closer. “About who?”

“…” Aiden kept silent for a while, “Do you know anything about what happened when I was kidnapped five years ago?”

“Oh, wait, let me guess. You probably think I kidnapped you!” Kylie sneered and burst out in sarcastic laughter. Kylie hung up her phone, chucking it at the side.

“Don’t let him influence you. I’m not going to pick up his calls in the future.” Faith told Kylie angrily. “Who the hell does he think he is contacting you now after everything he did to you!”

“He can’t influence me. He holds no importance to me.” Kylie looked as if she did not care, but Faith could tell Aiden’s phone call had disturbed her. After all, she did love him at one point, didn’t she?

Faith knew that for Kylie, Aiden was not just her first love but also someone she loved deeply for almost five years. Even if she had Ethan Parker now, the past injury and rejection could not be easily healed.

Faith reached over and grabbed Kylie in a hug, “Don’t think about him anymore. You are capable of a much better life, one without Khloe, Aiden, and your father.”

“I know.” Kylie smiled and nodded.

When Faith left her room to go to sleep, Kylie grabbed her robe. She liked being cozy and comfortable when she was alone. However, when she was about to change, she heard a strange sound coming from outside her room. Kylie hurriedly buttoned up her jacket and picked up the ashtray on the bedside table. She had no doubt that Khloe was capable of sending someone after Kylie to attack her for revenge.

Kylie leaned against the wall and quietly waited to figure out what the noise could be. She was trying not to overthink, but she could not help but recall the similar situation she had been in a few years earlier.

She was helping out at a banquet Garcia Entertainment had hosted for their investors and clients. However, not too long into the banquet, she had felt unwell, so she ended up returning to her hotel room early. In the dead of night, when the banquet was over, one of their investors used a room card to try and enter her room.

Chapter 103: Timid Like Kitten

Thankfully she had been up and managed to barge the door with furniture and called the police. Because of this, Garcia Entertainment lost a five million investment, and her dear father, Laurence Finch, never forgave her because of it. Just thinking about it gave her chills even though it happened a long time ago.

Kylie broke herself out of the daze and focused on the situation at hand. Her heart leaped when she saw the door handle turning. Kylie steadied herself and raised the crystal ashtray over her head to hit whoever came inside her room. However, the door opened too quickly, and she bumped into a large body, falling backward in the process.

“Ah!” Kylie screamed loudly as the man toppled over her pinning her to the ground. What was she going to do now? She was trapped!

“Let me go…” Kylie screeched. “If you dare do anything to me, I can promise you that you will be fucking dead.”

“Really?” The manly voice responded to her, almost sounding amused.

Kylie hesitated, she knew that voice! It was low but soft, cool, yet sexy.

“Ethan?”

The figure instantly softened his arms but still pinned her to the ground.

“Ethan! What the hell! What was that for! I was terrified!” Kylie yelled angrily, trying to stand up.

“Such a pleasant welcome,” Ethan retaliated, snorting in response.

“I thought it was someone trying to assault me. What would you rather do? Welcome him with open legs… Ah!”

He did not let her finish and slapped Kylie’s ass. He then leaned down and whispered, “You only open your legs for me, understand?

Ethan leaned forward and kissed Kylie, and Kylie kissed him back with more fervor than she ever had before. Ethan had never been rough with her, even unintentionally, but this was turning Kylie on more than she liked to admit. He stood up, slung Kylie over his shoulder, and carried her to the bed, throwing her down.

“Ow!” Kylie scowled. However, her mouth was silenced when Ethan fell atop her and continued his attack on her lips. He placed slow, gentle kisses from her chin, down her neck, stopping in front of her throat nibbling gently. At the same time, his hands were roughly rubbing her breasts. The mix of his rough and soft touches made Kylie pant with desire and lust.

“So, how do you like your welcome?” Ethan asked in a husky voice, and Kylie could barely resist. He pushed the hair from her face and looked down at her with such tenderness, trailing his thumb over her swollen lips.

Kylie smiled with a twinkle in her eyes, “Okay…But it could be better, I think… I’m sure someone else…”

“Why you little minx!” Ethan snarled and turned her over onto her stomach. “You think someone else can do this to you?” He growled as he kissed down her back, stopping just above the curve. All of a sudden, Kylie felt him lifting her body up and sliding underneath her.

“Answer me!” Ethan asked her dangerously.

Kylie looked up at her husband, shocked at the way he was talking to her, her body tensing until she noticed the teasing glint in his eyes and the slight quirk of his lips. His anger was all for show, and this made Kylie’s stomach flutter. Without actually meaning to, Kylie goaded him on as if her lower body had taken in charge of her brain.

“No, I will not answer you!” Kylie replied defiantly.

“My fault, you say?” Ethan roughly turned her head around and lifted her nightie. Kylie heard him suck in his breath and imagined his hands shaking as he smoothed his palms over her bottom, caressing the skin slowly.

“No, not yet,” Ethan whispered. He pulled down her nightie and patted her ass lightly.

Kylie blushed and scrambled up from Ethan’s lap. She could not believe she had gotten so into the situation! Trying to diffuse the tension, Kylie mumbled, “So you are the gift that you told me about?”

Ethan just smiled in response. He walked over to Kylie and held her waist, “You must be tired. How was the shoot?”

“No. Not really. I was nervous in the beginning, but I forgot all about it after the shooting started…” She sat inside his arms and chatted about what had happened during her shoot.

Ethan listened to her quietly, his eyes full of love as he listened to Kylie. She acted so strong in front of everyone else, but with him, she was vulnerable and soft, like a timid little kitten. He felt happy that finally, Kylie was so comfortable with him.

Kylie felt a soft kiss land on her forehead. She was about to respond, but the loud shrill of her phone interrupted the sensual moment between Kylie and her husband. Knowing the annoying phone would continue to ring. Kylie grabbed her phone from the bed. When she looked at who she was calling her, her face turned ash white.

Ethan immediately noticed, “Who is it?” He asked worriedly.

Kylie was quiet before she spoke, “Khloe. Apparently, she is here as well and asked me to meet her downstairs at a coffee shop.”

In no way, Kylie even thought about meeting her step-sister, but a moment of guilt made her pause and that single video had absolutely destroyed Khloe’s career. And Kylie could not help but feel a slight twinge of guilt despite what Khloe and Alice had done to her.

“Maybe I’ll go down for 5 minutes?” She asked Ethan.

“No,” Ethan shook his head. “Haven’t you learned by now that Khloe had no good intentions towards you?”

“I know, but I just want to know what she wants now…” Kylie replied.

Ethan sighed, “Yes, okay. But I’m going down with you.”

Ten minutes later, Kylie and Ethan Parker went downstairs to the coffee shop that Khloe had texted her. Before entering, Kylie turned around and stopped Ethan.

“I think you should stay here. If Khloe sees you, she might react differently…” Kylie asked timidly.

Ethan nodded begrudgingly, “Okay, but I’m right out here. If you need me, call. Okay?”

Kylie nodded and walked inside with a deep breath. God, I hope this is worth it, Kylie prayed to herself, hoping she was not setting herself for another one of Khloe’s planned disasters.

Kylie walked further inside but frowned when she did not see Khloe. Walking over to the left, she looked carefully but saw no one else except a young man sitting in a corner with a cap on his head. Just as she was about to go towards the other side, Kylie was stopped dead in her tracks.

Aiden Parker was the man wearing the cap.

Chapter 104: I Will Always Be Here To Protect You

Kylie squinted her eyes and looked again, thinking she must be imagining. Why would Aiden Parker be here of all places? But no. Her eyes were not playing a trick on her. It was indeed Aiden, and as soon as he saw her, he walked over briskly and grabbed her wrist, preventing Kylie from leaving.

Kylie looked at him coldly and pointedly stared at his hand, “Aiden Parker, remove your hand from my arm.”

Aiden’s face was in shock as if she had physically slapped him. Back when Kylie was a lovesick fool falling at Aiden’s feet, she would have never imagined talking to Aiden like that. But now? Now she was a different person, and he had no right to grab her like that without her permission.

“You said you had nothing to do with what happened five years ago. Okay, fine. So tell me, why did you go to the hospital?” Aiden spoke angrily towards Kylie.

His questions made Kylie Finch laugh. She sneered, “That’s why you came all the way? To ask a bunch of shitty questions?”

“Kylie, just answer my God, damn questions. Why are you trying to humiliate me? Can you just listen to me?”

“Listen to you? Why the hell should I listen to you?” Kylie wrenched back her hand from Aiden’s grip. “You didn’t respect me, and you ignored me. You never cared about what I said. Now you want to say something to me? Sorry, I find that hard to believe! You lost your chance, Aiden.”

“Kylie Finch, you were in love with me for five years. You are really going to forget all that time?”

Kylie burst out, laughing at the ridiculousness of his statement. She guessed he had finally realized what kind of person Khloe really was. And now he was here, wallowing in self-pity!

It honestly seemed like a big joke. Kylie smiled and tried to calm herself down.

“Aiden Parker, you don’t exist in my world anymore, so don’t try to impress me now. You are a despicable human being.”

Aiden lunged forward, trying to prevent Kylie from walking away, but the sound of sobs stilled both Kylie and Aiden. Aiden turned towards the source, and his body immediately froze; it was Khloe, leaning against the door, looking as if she had seen a ghost. Her face was pale, and her hair was coarse and frizzy, the exact opposite of what Khloe Finch was.

She stumbled towards them and started crying, “Kylie, I have lost everything. I am begging you. Don’t take Aiden away…I…I’m pregnant.” She was not very loud, but the few people around them could still hear her crying voice.

Kylie stared at Khloe in shock and disbelief, was this supposed to be a joke? Was she supposed to start laughing now? And laugh out loud she did. Kylie was not trying to be a bitch, but Khloe just brought out the worst in her. Every fucking time. When she got a hold of herself, Kylie stood coolly with her hands in her pocket, “It’s not my baby. Why are you telling me?”

“Kylie…” Khloe said weakly. She looked like she had gone through so much. “I know we have animosity between us. I know you don’t want to see me, and I promise you, I won’t show my face to you ever again. I will give you everything you want. But please, for my baby, give back my Aiden. The baby is innocent, no matter what. It needs a father…Kylie, I can do everything you want me to if you can give Aiden back to me.”

Holy shit! Was this really happening? Kylie stared at Khloe with a slack jaw. Everyone else in the coffee shop was now listening wholeheartedly to Khloe’s sob story and looking at her with pity.

“How do you expect me to believe you?” Kylie replied, bitterly, not falling into Khloe’s trap. Kylie knew that Khloe cared about her career far too much to risk getting pregnant, and she knew her too well to know when she was lying.

Before Khloe could reply, the barista walked over to Kylie briskly and spoke harshly, “I think you are causing a scene here and interrupting my work. You need to leave.”

“I’m causing a scene?!” Kylie chortled. “What about that hypocrite who’s telling her pathetic sob story to everyone here? Why don’t you ask her to leave!?”

Kylie did not know who the barista was and why he was so protective over Khloe, but as soon as she said her last statement, he grabbed her arm and started pushing her towards the door.

“Get your fucking hands off me!” Kylie screeched, but the barista tightened his hold on her.

Suddenly, the coffee shop door opened and in walked a tall figure, stomping aggressively on the wooden floor.

“I believe the lady asked you to release her,” he growled in an angry voice to the barista.

Kylie turned her head and saw Ethan walking towards her. His expression was emotionless, but Kylie could see the anger in his eyes.. The cigar on his hands was still burning.

“Lord Ethan?” The barista trembled as he immediately recognized the newcomer. It was a surprise to all to see Lord Ethan Parker at their coffee shop in Saint Martin. Why was he here, and why was he defending Kylie Finch?

“I…I am sorry, Mr. Parker. I was not aware Miss Finch was with you,” the barista replied meekly.

Ethan did not even spare him a second glance but looked at Kylie with concern. He grabbed Kylie’s arm and looked at where the barista had held onto her.

“Don’t ever fucking touch a woman again without her permission,” Ethan quietly but coldly said. He then grabbed Kylie’s hand and walked out of the coffee shop.

When they were alone outside, Ethan hugged Kylie kissing her on the head. “If anyone dares to confront you in the future, you don’t need to put up with it. You can do everything in your power to stop him.”

“…” Kylie was speechless. She did not respond to him but simply snuggled closer within his embrace. Ethan tightened his arms around her and kissed her gently.

“I will always be here to protect you.”

 

Chapter 105: Just Kiss Me

Kylie felt her stomach dropping but not in fear. It was a feeling of intense love and passion for her husband, Ethan Parker. In the whole world, there was a man who did not care about anything else in the world except to love her purely.

Kylie stared at him and spoke after a while, “Don’t speak; just kiss me.”

Ethan was surprised but immediately responded, leaning closer and passionately capturing Kylie’s lips within his own.

Kylie held his neck and stood up in her tippy-toes to match his height even though he was much taller than she was. Ethan leaned down further and slid his arms down her neck towards the dip in her back. Kylie pushed Ethan against the wall and continued kissing him, their tongues dancing inside their mouths.

They only broke apart when the sound of the elevator reached their ears and the fact that they actually needed to breathe. Ethan stepped away from her deliberately and walked ahead of her towards their room. Kylie could not help but giggle at seeing him so frustrated.

“Ethan, the elevator can be a good place to try. Why did you stop?”

Ethan stilled and looked at her with dark hooded eyes. His voice was hoarse when he replied, “Be careful what you’re asking.”

Kylie’s heart pounded at his reply, combined with the look he was giving her. Without giving him a chance to move, Kylie rushed over to Ethan and jumped into his waiting arms, wrapping her legs around him and capturing his lips in a kiss. This time, it was Kylie in charge, and she forced her tongue inside his mouth, exploring all that he had to offer.

Ethan stumbled back towards the bed and was about to sit down with Kylie on top of him when their unlocked hotel room door was pushed open. Ethan reacted quickly as he was the one facing the door; he pushed Kylie to the side and stood in front of her protectively. Kylie was confused and peeked from behind Ethan to see who it was.

Aiden Parker!

What the fuck was wrong with him? What was Aiden doing there? Apparently, Ethan was just as angry and confused as her, and he lunged forward and punched Aiden hard, making him fall to the ground. Aiden did not stay down for long; he stood up and started fighting back. Kylie knew Ethan was strong enough to hold himself up, but Aiden was using all he had to fight back. He was desperate.

When Kylie saw Aiden landing a punch on Ethan, she yelled out loudly, “Stop!” However, her screams had no effect on the two alpha males fighting. Trying to figure out some way to make them stop, Kylie grabbed the unopened wine bottle and crashed it to the ground. The sharp sound of glass breaking made the two men immediately stop fighting.

Kylie stood there with her hands on her hips. “Go on. Fight! In fact, why are you fighting only with your hands? Here!” She picked up a broken piece of glass and handed it towards the men. Kylie was breathing heavily in anger at the immaturity of the two men standing in front of her. Sure, she would expect this from Aiden, but Ethan!?

Just as Kylie was about to say something else, her eyes landed on Ethan’s chest; his shirt was ripped, and there was a small amount of blood on it. Forgetting everything else, she quickly ran to him and took off his shirt. Kylie wanted to know whether he was hurt badly.

Aiden started laughing, “Kylie, you are so in deep that you can’t even see the reality. That’s my blood. I am the one who is bleeding!”

“Then you should go with your girlfriend.” Kylie simply replied without turning around, continuing to take care of Ethan.

This made Aiden even angrier, “Kylie, see? You were always like this. Even when we were together!”

“Me? Are you kidding me!?” Kylie felt a surge of anger run through her body. All the years of keeping her emotions in her heart came rushing out.

“Aiden Parker, did you forget that you proposed to Khloe in front of me? Didn’t you say that you don’t ever want to see me again? Didn’t you say that you love Khloe, and I was only a distraction? Huh?”

Aiden looked at her with a guilty expression. “Kylie, I know. I did…what I did was wrong. I’m sorry for hurting you.”

“I don’t need your apology now.” Kylie sighed and turned around. “Now, why are you here? Are you here to ask me to stop fighting Khloe? I can tell you that if she did not target me herself, I would never fight back. If she does the same thing again, I will make her regret it. Please go back to your girlfriend and your baby and leave me alone!”

“Kylie, can you just let me finish?” Aiden sighed, sounding sad and helpless. “Kylie, I can make it up for what happened before. I want to tell you what I feel right now.” Aiden looked at Kylie and did not care whether she listened to him or not; he was going to say his piece.

“I don’t know what’s wrong with me. There are so many girls trying to be with me, but I just want you. Ever since you…you are…with…Uncle Ethan, I…I can’t handle it. I see he’s changing you and not for good. Kylie, I miss you and every moment we were ever together.”

Kylie was shocked to hear what Aiden said, but then she sneered. Did he miss her? For people who did not know Aiden, they might be moved by his words. But Kylie had learned so much in those five years. Ethan was not changing him, and it was herself. She was becoming a much better person. Ever since she was with Ethan, he had changed her for the better.

And now that Kylie finally had found love and peace, Aiden had come back and was trying to destroy her happiness?

“Aiden. You need to leave.” Kylie firmly replied. Without seeing if Aiden understood or not, she turned around to Ethan, who was looking down at her softly, “Ethan, let’s go lie down. You’re hurt.” Kylie did not want to hear Aiden’s nonsense anymore, so she held Ethan’s arm and walked further inside the room.

“Kylie, please! This time, I will not let you go!” Aiden shouted.

Kylie stopped and turned around towards Aiden. She felt Ethan’s hand twitch as if wanting to stop her from even looking at Aiden. Kylie walked towards Aiden, who seemed to brighten at the fact that Kylie was walking towards him. His face lost that brightness when she pushed Aiden out the door and away from the man who had broken her heart.
