My Greek Lovers

Bonus Chapter

Eros's POV

My hands were shaking holding a bouquet of roses as Emily and I headed up the stairs. I hadn't thought through how I was going to tell Kristy I loved her. All I thought about this whole trip here was just that I wanted to see her again.

I needed to see her, feel her, kiss her.
And tell her I love her.

I ran to tell her and to stop her from getting on the ferry once I heard from my sister someone named "Kristy" showed up at the door. And later when Emily and Theo told me what Kristy thought about Athena...that because of the fight we had I had already brought another woman to my bed!

I would never do such a thing!

And I couldn't let Kristy think that either! She had stolen every piece of my heart the moment I saw her. I knew I had to hop on the next flight to San Francisco.

Nerves building in my stomach as Emily opened the door.
"SURPRISE! Look who came to see you-"
The door opened and I can't describe the emotions I felt in those first seconds. My heart fell to the floor in pieces. And my mind exploded seeing my unfamiliar yet somehow familiar half brother of mine, Nicholas standing there!

Touching her!
Holding her!
Kissing her!
MY Kristy! MY love!

I looked at her face and saw complete shock as she stared back at me.

Nicholas!

Adonis!

Nicholas Adonis!!! You've got to be kidding me!
Damnit!

Why did it not register in my head until now? Nicholas, my hateful half brother was her ex-boyfriend! The man stupid enough to leave someone like Kristy! To break her heart! I hated him even more now!

Not only has he always thought poorly of my father who always loved him and treated Nicholas like the rest of our family, but now I know he had hurt Kristy, abused her heart and what was he doing here now?

We're they back together?

"Eros?" He spat my name from his disgusting mouth.
"What the fuck are you doing here?"

MALAKAS!!
I thought to myself! I have nothing to say to him!

"What the FUCK are YOU doing here, Nicholas?" Emily shouted, looking just as shocked as I was to see him here. Clearly she didn't expect to walk in on them like this either.
"Umm...we...I-I can explain" I heard Kristy mumble prying herself from his slimy hands. But I was too defeated to say anything. It felt like the world around me was shattering before my eyes. What was left to say anyways?
She was in his arms!
Had she known we were brothers this entire time?

I didn't need any explanations anymore. I didn't care at the moment! It looked clear to me that they were together, she said they were for four years!

Four years!

She's only known me two weeks...I've got nothing on him so why even try.
Besides the fact that she lives here and I live in Greece.
I was a damn fool for even coming here!

Thinking what we had the last two weeks was strong enough! Strong enough to bind us together in love! Strong enough to keep us together, even if it meant oceans apart!

I couldn't bear it!
I couldn't bear to hear what truths had to be exposed.
I didn't want to feel the stinging pain in my heart anymore.
The string I felt every time she wasn't around me.

I shouldn't have come!
