Nikolas avoided me since the whole incident with my parents. If I was being honest, that was the best thing he could have done. The mere sight of me had me so scared that I could barely keep it together.
I'd slept in my bed alone for three days and I hated how lonely it felt. I hated myself for missing a man that threatened to kill me and replace me within hours. His actions only told of how little value my life was to him.
'Yet he's the only thing you think about.'
Father still asked for updates of where Nikolas went and what he did and I had nothing to give him. I hadn't seen him in days and whenever I asked Ricco of his whereabouts, he told me he didn't know.
Bullshit.
How was I supposed to get him to fall for me if I didn't even see him.
"Nikolas told me to tell you he'll be attending your sister's birthday party with you tomorrow." Ricco said from the door.
