"What is it that you want from me? Huh?" He spat, raising his voice. There was a vein in his neck and he was turning red. I've never seen him this upset, I must've really hit a nerve.
His lips were tight but they were so juicy and kissable. "I want...

Damon and I have gotten a little closer these past couple of days. We hang out when he's here, we eat breakfast and lunch together, he lets me sit in his office while he worked and I played games on his phone until he was done. He's easy to talk to and surprisingly, I enjoyed his company.
He's been home for a week now so I didn't have a reason to ask for Isaiah. I didn't know if I had wanted to in the first place. Things were weird now but i tried not to dwell on it so much.
He says it will never happen again so I believed it and I used that as my motivation to move on. No matter how hard that is.
I met his family today and they were.. strange at best.
For instance, their sister Winter is cool. She said her hellos and was really polite but afterwards, she remained quiet and just ate in silence. She wasn't worried about what was going on around her. You could tell she was the spoilt brat of the family.
Now their father, Kenvy? He's an odd duckling. The man has this dominant presence about him and he scares the hell out of me but throughout our entire conversation, he was nice. He even smiled a little but not fully like it'll hurt if he did. He doesn't really ask questions he more so demands them. Like now, he asked me if I was fine with him pushing the wedding early. I only nodded because the look he gave me was 'say no and I'm fucking you up'. Scary shit.
I knew I was getting married sooner or later but I thought I had a few weeks left— three months, tops. He wants us to be married in two months and I was not prepared at all. Once that ring is on my finger and our vowels are repeated, my life will be officially over. I won't be Zariah Ivana anymore, I'll be Zariah Milan.
Damon wasn't so pleased with this either. His face said it all. He was frowning and his usual charming smile was replaced with a scowl. I know he was pissed because he wanted to spend more time enjoying his free, single life and I can't blame him. Damon told me about his little side pieces and I told him that I didn't care about it, it wasn't my business. We agreed to just stay friends even after marriage so who am I to be mad?
I snuck a glance at Isaiah to get his reaction but he didn't even seem like he cared. Of course he doesn't. I meant nothing him.
Why does that hurt me?
"We will be having an engagement party to celebrate your kindling." Kenvy starts. "It will be in a week. I already sent out the invitation."
