Chapter 73
“You haven’t heard from him?” Daniella asked Korina while adjusting her sunglasses.
“What’s up with the large sun shades and dark fringe wig?” She asked her cousin ignoring her question.
“Nothing.” Daniella lied, “Just decided to go for a new look today.” She hated lying to Korina but she didn’t want her to know or how to come clean on her abusive relationship, Landon had beat her up again.
“Okay.” Korina shrugged, she reached out and picked a black shirt from the rack.
They were at the shopping mall for some shopping, Daniella had forced her cousin out.
“What do you think of this?” She asked holding the shirt up against her body.
“It’s too plain.” Daniella snatched it from her and hung it back on the rack, “Haven’t you heard from Jace? I asked earlier.”
“No, I haven’t.” She shook her head, “And I ain’t calling his ass.”
“Why?” Daniella rolled her eyes at her cousin, she was so stubborn.
“He’s suppose to call me.” Korina said.
“No.” Her cousin disagreed, “You hurt him, so you are supposed to call him.”
“I have to keep my pride.” She rolled her eyes, “I would wait till he calls or comes over.”
“That’s how you lose a man.”
“Look sissy, a man who wants to stay would and a man who doesn’t want to would leave, no matter what you do.”
“I agree with you.” Daniella said, “But sometimes you have to fight for love especially for someone who has been fighting for you.”
Korina didn’t know what to tell her friend, she just bobbed her head and they continued with the shopping.
They were done now and were on the escalator going downwards when Daniella stopped Korina and pointed in a direction.
“Isn’t that him?” She asked, “Isn’t that Jace?” Korina focused her gaze on the spot. It was actually Jace with a girl close to him, too close, too too close for Korina’s liking.
What the fuck? What the actual fuck? She was literally fuming, how could he?
“How dare he?” She growled, “I am going there right now.”
She handed over to Daniella her shopping bags and began marching where Jace was, with Daniella following her.
“Hey.” Korina hit Jace on his shoulder and he turned around to face her, before he could say anything, she grabbed him by the collar, pulled him closer and smashed her lips onto his.
She released him after what was quite a long kiss, smirked at the girl next to him and grabbed Daniella immediately walking away not waiting for what he had to say.
Jace pulled out his phone as he watched the woman he loved stomp angrily away.
“Hey man.” He smirked as soon as Ade picked the call, “It worked.”
“Really?” His best friend replied excitedly, “What was her reaction?”
“Yes.” Jace laughed, “She came over to grab me and kissed me.”
“Holy shit.” Ade laughed, “So what’s the next move bro?”
“I would be going over to her house as soon as I am done here.”
“Okay.” Ade said, “Bye.”
After the call, he fished out some couple of dollars from his wallet, “Here you go.” He handed them over to the dark haired girl.
“Thank you so much sir.” She bowed excitedly before turning and skipping away.
He thought about the kiss he just shared with Korina and smiled inwardly as he got his stuff ready to leave, he knew he was gonna get more kisses when he arrived at her house, he was super excited, he couldn’t wait.
Jace was about to kick start his scooter but stopped when he saw his best friend running out of the house towards him.
“What’s up?” He asked pulling off his helmet.
“You gonna do what we planned right?” Ade asked him with quirked brows, “You gonna go exactly as we discussed?”
“Yes, I will.” Jace sighed, “Can I go now?”
“Sure.” Ade said, “Good luck man.” He patted his back and Jace drove out of the garage with his mindset on doing exactly what was planned, he was gonna go over to Korina’s place, kiss her senseless and tell her the truth about his life, he was gonna stop all the lies from this day.
“I don’t want to see you.” She frowned and moved to close the door but Jace stopped her.
“Why are you so damn stubborn huh?” He growled, “You literally saw me at the mall with a lady, got jealous, walked up to me and kissed me.
Now, you don’t wanna see me?” He was baffled at her attitude.
“I wasn’t in my right state of mind.” She lied.
“You are never in your right state of mind.” He mumbled running a hand through his hair, she’s damn so hard to deal with, ughh!
“What did you say?” She raised her brows at him.
“I got you ice cream.” He said cheerfully raising the bags in his hands.
Korina was almost done with the second tub of ice cream and Jace sat there watching her in admiration, her head bent over with full concentration devouring the treat, he found every action of hers pleasing to the eyes.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
“You do eat a lot.” He smiled.
“Shut up idiot!” She rolled her eyes and put the ice cream tub aside, “Why are you here?”
“Isn’t it obvious?” He licked his lips and smiled sinister moving closer to her, “I came to finish what you started at the mall love.”
“Jace!” She said wide eyed, “Don’t you come any closer.” Her heart skipping beats as he became unbearably near.
“Why shouldn’t I?” He asked, their faces were closer now, she could feel his breath fanning her face, “We both want each other badly.” He rested a hand on her bare lap rubbing circles causing her emotions to run wild, “We both want each other.” He whispered in her ear before giving it a light bite and sucking it in his mouth.
“Jace.” She moaned putting her hands on his shoulders, “I…” Her words never came out fully as he locked lips with hers, she moaned in his mouth and moved to straddle him, grinding on him with her hand creeping under his shirt.
They were both lost in pleasure, telling her the truth was forgotten.
