《Desire ✓ - OLD VERSION》» Chapter Eighteen

My mouth gaped open like a fish as they both starred at me like deer caught in headlights .
I set down the stuff from the fair on the coffee table by the door .
" Can you guys please explain me what's going on? Because... Last I checked your engaged to Nick " Hannah sighs looking guilty as her eyes filled with tears .
" Your engaged ?!" Seth snapped clenching his fist his teeth gritted as his nostrils flared out in anger .
Hannah's mouth gaped open like a fish before she broke down , tears steaming down her face and her shoulders sagged down .
" I-I'm sorry " she sniffed wiping her tears " I didn't mean for this to happen —"
" Bullshit " Seth growled and me and Hannah both flinched at his loud angry voice .
" Get the hell out of my house " he pointed towards the door .
Hannah opened her mouth but Seth slammed his fist against the wall making a dent causing me to jump two feet in the air .
" Get the hell out of my house !" Hannah didn't need to be told twice she grabbed her large Prada bag and bolted out stopping to give me a pleading look .
" Please don't tell Nick " she sobbed before closing the door behind her .
The room was silent as I slowly turned towards Seth crossing my arms .
" What happened to not being home all night ?" I hissed at him and he rolled his eyes rubbing his swollen busted bleeding knuckles .
" The meeting I was going to have with the board in Germany got delayed because a bad tornado had hit there homeland and I wanted to help , to send money and help out " Seth sighs sitting on the stairs steps running his fingers through his hair looking up at me at his bright blue grey eyes .
" So please explain to me what is going on with you and Hannah " I snapped .
Seth took a deep breath " We've been hooking up for weeks now , she had a private interview with me in my house and things got pretty personal and heated " he explained rubbing his knuckles .
I knelt down his eyes watched me guarded and cautious as I starred at his big hands .
I pulled his hand examing his swollen knuckles which were bleeding .

" Come on " I rolled my eyes standing up leading him to the bathroom making him sit on the toilet as I grab a First-Aide-Kit .
I applied some alcoholic wipes hearing his intake of breaths .
" I didn't know she was engaged " Seth breaks the silence and I sighed shrugging .
" Can't believe she's doing this to Nick" Seth stiffens .
" The guys you kissed ?" He raised his brow as I wrapped his knuckles with wool .
" Yeah " I say adding tapes .
" He cheated , she cheated doesn't make a difference " he says .
" What do you mean ?"
" Well obviously this engagement is not going well if there going behind each other's backs " Seth stands and I stumbled back caught off guard .
" What is wrong with you sneaking off with Hannah would if the press found out you were having a affair with an engaged woman " I snapped placing my hand on my hip .
" Unlike you I don't be in the streets going on dates and kissing guys " he narrowed his eyes angrily at me .
" I don't go on ... wait how do you know I go on dates " I raised my brow .
" Don't think I don't keep tabs on where your going —"
" You got to he kidding me ! " I raised my hands in the air my arms falling down " It's like I don't have a life ! —"
" Excuse me for trying to keep an eyes on you before you go out kissing random guys like a slut " he growled standing up his firm chest pressed against mines making me stumble back .
He caught my forearms before I fell back pulling me forward our chest pressed firmly together .
I could feel his heartbeat and it was going fast as mines .
I looked up seeing were a hair brush away from our lips touching .
Some unreadable emotion flashed across his bright eyes but it was gone in a instant .
The phone ringing broke our trance we broke apart quickly he cleared his throat his cheeks a light shade of pink .
" I'm gonna uh ... Make some dinner "
" Yeah you do that " his voice cold and emotionless and I furrowed my brows as I leave the bathroom confused .

The bride walkway was today and Olivia was preparing me to walk and how to wear my dress .

My dress was beautiful the top to hips clung to my body while the bottom party flared out .
It was strapless and had a sweetheart neckline and had silver sparkling jewels going down and sprawled out .
I had a long veil placed on my neat curled hair .
" You look gorgeous !" Maryann cheered " I can't wait for the real wedding " she beamed and I smiled as we got ready .
The bridesmaids dresses went up first and Hannah will be up next .
She was the second bride after me and she wore a sweat heart strapless white gown the bottom part flowed out like a princess dress .
She's been giving me pleading looks but I ignored her .
" Your up next " Olivia said speaking angrily through the mic piece by her mouth .
" I don't care ! Just do it " she snapped .
I took a deep breath as I got in position to get ready to walk the runway .
Once the song change I slowly walk forwards seeing bright flashy lights .
Cheers surrounded me as I walked down the runaway careful not to fall .
I felt glowing and beautiful as every person I passed shot me a apprehensive smile . I caught the eyes of Milo and Patrick and his wife and son and they shot me thumbs up while Milo winked giving me a flirty smile .
Once I reach the end I smiled and posed and walked away keeping my head straight .
Once I reached backstage I took a deep breath , Maryann came towards me engulfing me in a tight hug.
" You were awesome everyone loved you !" Maryann squealed and I smiled taking the pins out of my hair sitting on the vanity chair .
" Thank you I had fun " I say and Maryann smiles widely rubbing my arm .
" I'm glad you did - Girls you guys did great ! But I should see more improvement next week " Maryann snaps as she leaves .
" She's only nice to her because she's Seth's fiancé " I heard a girl whisper .
I glanced at her seeing two girls giving me the stink eye .
" Yeah what does he see in her anyways " the other girl says brushing her golden locks .
" Well whatever he sees in her I don't see it " the brunette girl says and I turn feeling my heart race .
Those words hurt but I could care less ..

Today Nick was getting married and I decided to tell him about Hannah .
I still love Nick after all that's happened and I don't want to watch someone I love marry a girl who cheated on him .
Nick was at the bar with his football friends stalking time until the wedding .
I opened the door the sound of indie rock and smells of sweet liquor filled my ears and nostrils .
Nick was at the bar stool with five other guys laughing and drinking .
I walked up to Nick tapping his shoulder he turns and widens his blue eyes looking at me in surprise .
" Hey Lyd " he stands giving his friends a nod and dragging me to a dark corner .
" Nick I have something to tell you " I say and he nods for me to continue .
I take a deep breath watching his eyes " Hannah is cheating on you " I blurt and I watched his eyes .
No surprise or hurt was evident in them making me furrow my brows .
He sighs running his hands through his golden hair " There's something I need to tell you " he place his hands on my bare shoulders .
" Me and Hannah aren't ... Really a thing " he tells me and my mouth gapes in horror .
" What do you mean ?"
" Were only dating so that her dad can give me his company SportsZone it's a publishing company about sports and I wanted to own it forever . And Hannah is only dating me so she can get more modeling gigs so it's a win-win for us ."
" I can't believe this " I shake my head " Why didn't you tell me ? " I ask crossing my arms .
" I wanted you to think I moved on " he says frowning .
" You didn't have to show me you moved on like this ?" I say wrapping my arms around him .
A flash started and I broke apart from Nick my eyes wide as I see about five paparazzi's swarming around my clicking pictures .
" Are you having an affair with the NFL most best football player ?"
" Are you guys together ?"
" Did he get you pregnant?"
Oh no...

The Stormcrow Cycle
Once a powerful and lauded witch, Ba'an salu-Ba'an now lives alone in a cave in the desert, waiting to die. When she rescues an outlander from certain death she becomes embroiled in a deadly game of politics and empire, of heart and soul, but worst of all--of hope and love and a chance at a peaceful future. Can a disgraced witch find a reason to live her life again--and if so, what price must she pay? The Stormcrow Cycle is a trilogy comprising of The Exile, The Lion, and Abomination. Tags or genres for each book: The Exile: romance, slice-of-life The Lion: romance, slice-of-life, politics Abomination: tragedy, high/epic fantasy (aka "Everything is on fire!") Updates once a week whenever I have time. Cross-posted on Wattpad and Scribble Hub. The CBMokedi cover will return! Excerpt: She looked down at him again. Young. Healthy, from what she could see, except for the wound that was killing him. He was handsome in a way that suggested a life of wealth and plenty. She did not think he had ever starved. Someone important. Her shadow fell across him, and he frowned. Blearily, he opened his eyes. They were amber and bright, even as he lay dying in the dirt. She could feel his soul, blazing inside of him like a fire refusing to die even as his body began to fail. He met her gaze, eyes widening in what she guessed was surprise—or shock. But he never looked away, staring up at her as though transfixed. Ba’an made her decision. She raised her hand and covered his eyes. In another moment, a murder of crows cawed as they took wing. The man and woman were gone from the road, leaving only the dead staring up into the sky. Note: This is a high-fantasy set in a low-magic world. The first book is largely character-driven and we really only hit the real plot in Book II, so if you're not fond of long epic yarns you ought to skip this one. I also don't include trigger warnings, but mind the "traumatizing content" tag--all societies minus one practice slavery and the world is indeed, rather grim!
