Chapter 8

"I'm tried of this." I say to Luke's back. It's been a couple days since that late night encounter in his room.

"Tired of what?" He whispers without turning around. "Of you denying that there isn't something here between us."

"I can't agree to something that isn't there Victoria, I don't know what you're talking about. There has never been it ever was anything between us. What you saw, what you thought, it's nothing."

The words cut deep into me. Even thought I know I didn't imagine his lust for me. I see it every single time he looks at me.

"Bullshit."

He spins around quickly. "What did you say?"

"I said bullshit. I didn't stutter. You feel something for me. An emotion that isn't hate and I know. I've seen it several times. When you touch me, when I catch you looking at me, that night in your room. it's all there Luke! and you can't deny that it isn't! Stop playing games with me please!"

Luke stares at me in shock because of my outburst. But as soon as the shock registered it went away, replaced with a mask of indifference.

"I pity you." He says in a cold detached voice. "You really think I'll love a girl like you? What do you have to offer me that a women MY age can't already? You're immature and with immaturity comes insecurity and drama. I need a women not a child."

the pieces of my heart shatters into smaller pieces. How is it possible?

"You don't mean that." I say with fake confidence.

He gives a nasty laugh. "How do you know what I want? We've known each other for a month! And throughout this month you've been either hooking up with Nate or trying to hook up with me. Victoria save yourself the trouble. Give up. I don't want you. Stop making yourself look like a fool."

I told myself I was going to be strong, but once I heard those words I couldn't anymore.

This spark of ours was toxic. It just hurt each other, slowly eating me from the inside. I couldn't keep fighting him on this when he was so sure on fighting me against it.

With a step forward we also moved 10 steps back. It was endless tug of war between us and I was just about done with it.

I walked into his study ready to get him to confess his love for me but all that was gotten out of this was my heart shattered with the ugly words muttered by him.

I couldn't do this anymore.

Wiping my tears off my face. I squared my shoulders and looked him in the face. New kind of courage ran through my veins, giving me the boost I needed.

"I never slept with Nate, he's my best friend who has taken care of me and loved me like I wish I could get from you. But that's not the case. I wish I did love Nate instead of you, because you're a monster Luke. But I've given up. I'm done here. Nate is gone fighting off the traitors taking his kingdom, he wanted me to stay here to be safe, but honestly fuck this. Tomorrow I leave, I won't be coming back. And you will never see this child again. I hope you find that women that will give you what you want. But until then, goodbye Luke."

With that i walked out to study without a glance back. I was done with a chapter in my life that barley begun. But the real question is, if it barley began why does it hurt so much?

Luke
I told her I didn't care, that everything she said was all in her imagination. But here's the sad part, all of it was a lie.

From the moment she confessed she loved me, I knew in my heart I loved her too. One month was such a short time but in that short time I fell in love with a girl I was supposed to hate.

And now she's leaving me forever. It's what I wanted in the beginning but now it seems like my own personal nightmare.

I'll become a ghost of man without her. But because of my refusal in expressing my feeling I decided against it and hurt her, Hurting myself in the process.

I'm pretty sure this was my only shot at love and I pushed away.

But my pride stops me from following her.

wow guys, depressing or what??????

HAPPY THANKSGIVING! I hope you enjoyed it with your family!

Ok, yea I get it I took forever to update this and believe me I'm disappointed in myself.

But I started writing other stuff and was so overwhelmed and dedication to get it rolling I lost motivation for this book. I rewrote this chapter so many times. The original chapter Luke and Tori finally got together, but why would I give up so easily? I need to keep you guys entertained :D So this was the outcome.

But the song above helped my train of thought. :D You can see why it's a sad song, so sad chapter.

BUT DONT WORRY! It gets better. Just bare w me.

****RANT OVER.*******
