She isn't fine like she pretends to be. On the contrary.
Liliana Storm Whitlock is shattered into a thousand pieces, used from the ones she loves, betrayed by the ones she loves, broken by the ones she loves.
So she lost herself.
And it all seems t...

Strong hands are wrapped around my waist when I wake up. A sigh of contentment escapes my lips when I take in a deep breath of this familiar smell that brings me so much comfort. The scent of his cologne.
A rainy day.
As if I am taking a deep breath, as I am standing in the middle of a forest when it rains and storms with no one to disrupt this peace that got created around me. That's what he makes me feel like.
Protected and at peace.
Memories of last night come flooding back in my mind and it's like I am being transported back to that time.
Blush creeps on my cheeks when I think about what we did yesterday, but not an ounce of regret gets to me. It was perfect.
I feel his arms laced around my waist, gently tugging me towards his torso, as his chin rests on top of my head, in the most peaceful way.
"Good morning, Princess."
His voice rasps against my ear, making me slightly jump since I thought he was still fast asleep. "Morning" I mumble and nearly whine when he stirs away from me to grab his phone.
For a moment he is silent and intrusive thoughts start crashing down in my head.
Does he regret being with me right now?
Did this all happen because he was angry and I was the only thing to calm him down ?
A simple escape to his anger...
but now that he is no longer angry, he might as well reject me.
"Storm, I'm losing you."
I snap out of my head when I feel his fingers brush under my chin to make me look up at him, slight concern in his cinnamon eyes. "Where did you go there ? I was talking to you."
I lightly shake my head confused by my own reflection. I didn't even hear him talk to me, I was completely lost in my head, drowning in my own mind. "Sorry, what did you say ?"
A smile tugs in the corner of his lips, before he approaches me to place a soft kiss on my lips, slipping his hands under my shirt to grip my waist. "My princess is a real daydreamer isn't she." He chuckles, before replacing a strand of air behind my ear. "Or were you just thinking about last night ?" He mutters in my ear, and I can't help the laugh that escapes my lips.
"Sorry...but what were you saying ?"
"I told you that I need to go to Emerald with Ostin and Louis. Something went down last night and we need to speak with the cops. I'll be back later this afternoon." His voice is soft just like the circles he traces with his thumbs on my waist.
