Sophieâs pov âWhat?â I breathed out, confused. I was a mistake?
What we did was a mistake?
There was a huge blow to my chest as I felt those words and my fingers clutch the material of my blouse where I could feel my heart beat erratically.
My bottom lip wobble a bit ad I stare at him.
Heâs not looking at me anymore as he fixes his suit.
Iâm the only dumb one still there with my mouth parted and my skirt still hunched up.
Iâm the only one who got used, yet again.
And I had stupidly fallen for his charms.
I stupidly made my heart choose only for him to disappoint me yet again.
Anger starts to pull at my sadness taking out every string until that anger consumed me.
My lips curl back into a sneer.
âYouâre still that huge asshole.
Why am I even surprised?â I slide off his desk, quickly fixing my skirt.
My panties were obviously ruined so there was no going back for them.
Aiden lifts his head, those storms shooting through me like lightning.
âWatch your mouth.â He snapped.
âWatch my mouth? Is that all you can say to me after three years?â I cursed myself inwardly when I felt the sting of incoming tears in my eyes.
Stay firm, Sophie.
He doesnât deserve your tears anymore.
His eyes grow colder, making my insides feel cold.
Iâm fixing my blouse and my skirt because I donât want to walk the walk of humiliation out of his office.
âWhat more do you want from me, Sophie? Another fuck?â Aiden sneers under his breath while fixing his tie.
His hair is a mess from his hands running through it over and over when he told me I was a mistake.
I flinched at his words which slapped me brutally across my face.
I want to hurt him too.
Hurt him with my words the same way he has hurt me.
But I canât bring myself to.
Because Iâm still in love with him.
And I canât hurt the father of my child.
Ash.....
Ash wasnât a mistake.
I donât want Aidenâs cruel words to scar him too.
I refuse to let Aiden hurt him just as he was hurting me now.
I had made the right choice after all.
âYouâre being cruel Aiden.â I shake my head, trapping my lower lip between my teeth.
Maybe if I bite into my lip hard enough Iâll feel enough pain there to distract me from the pain in my chest.
âThree years Aiden.
Three long years and youâre still so bitter towards me.â I let out shakily.
Aiden ground his teeth, his jaw popping.
He was furious, that was obvious.
â What the hell did you want me to do Sophie!? Throw a fucking welcome party and hold you like the diamond that you are? Well, guess what Sophie!
Youâre not a fucking diamond and those three years without seeing you, touching you, feeling you, were the best years of my life.â He seethed, taking a powerful step forward.
Tears are already rolling down my cheeks and Iâm shaking while a few sobs slip past my lips.
âYou said you missed this Aiden.
You said you missed me.â I whispered, my chest hurting with every breath I try to pull into my lungs.
Aidenâs lips curl cruelly and his next words are just as cruel.
âA guy says what a girl wants to hear to get in between her thighs.
Did you think you were that special for me to miss you, Sophie? All you have ever brought into my life was chaos.
Nothing good ever happens when youâre here.â He says lowly, bending his head down so that our eyes are leveled.
Iâm breathing heavily, but not in desire like earlier.
Iâm breathing heavily because I canât seem to breathe properly as his words stab through my heart âFucking you was just to remind you of how easy you still are after all these years.
I can only imagine how many guys passed there whilst I was rotting in jail.â He snarls, pinning me down with daggers of fury.
I staggered back at his words, my eyes widening.
Did he really think I was a whore? âYouâre so cruel, donât say things you know nothing about,â I whispered.
My fingers are curling into fists at my side, my lips wobbly.
I want to bawl my eyes out because his words are hitting me painfully.
His eyes scan my face and his lips curl into an even nastier snarl.
âHavenât you heard? Iâm a murderer remember? A devil.
So what do you expect? For me to be nice to you Sophie? Murderers arenât nice Sophie, theyâre cruel.â
âAnd besides, if you really were that special I wouldnât have fucked so many girls after you.
And they were more....delicious.â He smirked, his eyes holding no emotion in them.
I shake my head unable to take being in his presence anymore.
I need air.
I need to get out of here as soon as possible.
âFuck you Aiden,â I whispered.
âDid I not just do that? And I sure as hell donât want to do it again.â He sneers, rolling his eyes over me in disgust.
I bit my bottom lip, nodded, and picked up my heels.
I looked at him one last time before saying.
â This is the last time I ever let my guard down when it comes to you again.
And I mean it this time Aiden.â I step away from him and began to walk away.
Iâm forcing myself to not crumble before him, to not cry.
I didnât want to be that girl anymore.
I didnât want to be that same girl from high school anymore.
I had to be strong for Ash, because who would if I wasnât?
It was clear Aiden would not like the fact he shared a part of him with me.
And though guilt was eating me alive for those three years for not telling him about my pregnancy, about Aiden, now I realized that perhaps it was a good thing I didnât.
My hands on the door froze when his next words reach my ears before I opened the door.
âRunning away is what youâre good at Sophie, so no surprise there either.â
He was right, I always run away.
But I sure as hell wonât listen to his cruel words anymore.
I refuse to crawl back to him.
Not this time.
Heâs causing too much damage.
I opened the door while staying muted and walked out with my heels in my hand.
I donât close the door behind me and donât bother staring at Noel who was glaring at me while I walked past.
Pressing the button on the elevator I stepped into the lift when the doors slid open.
A part of me wished heâd come running to me and apologize.
Tell me he didnât mean any of what he just said.
But I knew that was only wishful thinking.
Aiden didnât care about me, and once again like that same high school girl three years ago, I fell into his trap and let him crawl back into my heart.
Only for him to shatter my hopes.
I looked at my reflection on the elevator doors and cringe.
I looked like someone who had just gotten fucked.
Aidenâs pov Iâm tugging at my hair, seething as I glared at the door she walked out of.
Somewhere in the back of my mind, I want her to walk back into the office.
To apologize for not calling me when I was rotting in jail.
For moving on without an issue.
paced my floor, snarling under my breath as I throw the files on my desk and the phone Noel bought recently.
Thatâs not enough.
I ripped the computer off my desk and fling it over to the wall.
Itâs destroyed in seconds, making a huge crashing sound that had Noel running into the room.
âWhat happened sir âGet the fuck out!â I barked, turning to glare at her.
She squirms out of the room like her ass was lit on fire.
âDamn Sophie Bell)â I growled under my breath as I paced the floor.
Kissing her wasnât supposed to happen.
Fucking her wasnât supposed to happen.
I had let my guard down.
groan passing my hand down my face in frustration.
Why did she have to taste so good and feel so good? She even tastes and feels even better after those three years.
God, Sophie was messing with my head.
This wasnât supposed to happen.
Iâm itching to go after her and pull her back into my arms.
But instead of doing that, I march over to the door and slammed it shut.
âFuck this.
Fuck her and fuck what Iâm feeling.
Iâm over her.â Yeah sure you are, my conscience mocked me.
As soon as your cock dipped into her pussy, you knew you were yet again, a goner.
âShut the fuck up.â I sneered, kicking my door.
I canât believe Sophie had me fighting with my own head.
Iâve been over her for years.
