Chapter 22-
Eda
I sit by myself in my room. I feel frustrated and numb. Even though it’s dinner time, I’m unaffected by hunger. My mind continues to race as I think about Osborn.
After being kissed like that… I don’t know if I could live without him. I truly want to believe that I would be able to be happy with just Peelle, but I don’t know if that’s true.
Peelle gives me everything I could want; he’s the sweet best friend type of guy and I know he cares deeply for me. Meanwhile, Osborn is the closed off one that seems to be brewing with dominance and passion.
There’s a knock on my door and I’m not surprised by the scent of cinnamon. It’s Peelle.
I open the door and force a smile, but he can see right through me. He asks, “Are you okay?”
I nod, “I’m fine, Peelle.”
He crosses his arms and I notice the ripples of his muscles underneath his shift. He says sternly, “I don’t believe you.”
I breathe out as I shake my head, “I don’t want to talk about it.”
