Chapter 11 Silence isn't bliss

KATHERINE

I woke up to warm strong arms pulling me deeper into them, I felt a chilled nose nuzzle itself into my neck and legs tangle into mine. Normally I would love this feeling and want to lay like this forever but all I could think about was how he manipulated me into just dismissing every horrible thing he said to me. He made it to where he can say whatever he wants to say to me and get away with it by playing on my insecurities. I was done letting him walk all over me, claim or not he was going to respect me. I grabbed his arm throwing it off of me roughly getting up, shoving my phone into my sweat pant pocket.

"YOOOO" LaMelo yelled groaning sleep evident in his voice. I looked over my shoulder sending him a dirty look walking over to the dresser. I grabbed my hair tie putting my hair into a messy bun.

"Why you got an attitude?" LaMelo snapped at me, attitude lacing his voice ironically. I just rolled my eyes walking out of the bedroom.

"KITTEN" LaMelo yelled probably still from the bed. I walked down the hall taking the elevator going downstairs. Once it opened I was met with the dogs. I smiled leaning down letting all of them lick me and jump on me.

"Let's go potty" I smiled. I let them lead me the twisty and turny way through the house to the kitchen. I opened the patio door letting them out, I walked over to the counter turning on the coffee pot grabbing a pop tart from the cabinet.

"Kitten" I heard LaMelo's voice. I ignored him not turning towards the entrance of the kitchen from the living where he entered.

"Baby, what's wrong? Did I do something?" He asked me confused. I rolled my eyes not sure why I was shocked by him not admitting he made a mistake. Soon enough my coffee was done, I grabbed a cup pouring myself a steaming hot cup of coffee. I went to walk passed LaMelo but he reached out for my coffee. I sent him a dirty look that pretty much told him to get it himself and then went into the dinning room. I sat down my mug opening my pop tart grabbing my phone finding Dorian's number calling him.

"Hello Miss. Amour, you are calling earlier than I excepted" Dorian's voice came through the phone. I couldn't help but cringe at the name Amour, it reminded me of all the lies in my life.

"I wasn't sure what I had to do today but my schedule is actually clear so I was wondering when we could go look at venues?" I asked him curiously sitting down nibbling at my pop tart.

"2 hours sound ok?" He asked me curiously

"It sounds lovely, where would you like me to meet you at?" I asked as LaMelo walked into the dinning room. He leaned against the arch way with his arms crossed.

"Starbucks, I'm going to need coffee and I'll have a driver" He told me making me laugh.

"Ok sounds like a plan. I'll see you in a couple hours Dorian" I said and we said our goodbyes. I hung up pushing my phone back into my pocket.

"Was that about the wedding?" He asked me curiously.

"What do you think? Why else would I be talking to Dorian?" I asked him sarcastically rolling my eyes in annoyance. I could see I was pushing him but I didn't even care, what was he going to do? Manipulate me into forgiving him again? Into sleeping with him again? Wait, that's the only reason he wants to be with me.

"Are you stressed over the wedding? I can plan the whole thing if it's too much, I mean you do got a lot on your plate right now" He offered as if he was this knight in shining armor. I took a drink of my coffee getting up walking passed him into the kitchen opening the patio door.
