kind of a sequel to poetic pain but you don't HAVE to read it to understand what's going on. 🫶🏾

Celine Washington is a strong independent black woman who doesn't take shit from anybody. She makes her own money working at a prestigious law firm, hard-working, self-assured, and in full control of her life. She trained herself to be that way with all that life has thrown at her. Chris Anthony is the Wide Receiver of the New York Giants. He is known as one of the best at his position, just recently coming off the high of winning a Super Bowl. As cocky, self-centered, and occasionally immature he was, women flocked to him like flies and he was perfectly fine with it. The media dubbing him as a ladies man and trouble maker. He wasn't looking to settle down and he definitely didn't want kids. His lifestyle did not permit it and neither was he ready for it. Celine, on the other hand, has recently began to crave for those things after seeing her younger sister, Nadia, get engaged and have a kid of her own. After turning down Chris' advances on multiple occasions, Celine finally agrees on an offer to spend one night with him. After that she'd hope to never see him again. That is until Celine and Chris find themselves in quite the predicament. 🥀 Mature Audiences Only ----------------------------------- {Until I Found You Spin-Off} I'd strongly recommend you read Until I Found You first to get a better grasp of this story, but you don't have to. ------------------------------------ © 2018 Summerdreamin / N.A.

"I made the decision to cheat on my wife because I liked the way you made me feel vulnerable and comfortable enough to open up to you the night before it happened. I ain't never did shit like that before and that's what made it easy for me to choose to risk everything I got for you." "That shit probably not a big deal to you but a nigga like me ain't never opened up to nobody but my best friend-and still..that's rare. I hate even talking about her with you but I don't even feel comfortable talking to Ariana about my feelings 'cause I know she gon' judge me. You don't make me feel like that."

"You know how special you gotta be to change a nigga like me? Huh?" He tilted her head back to make her look at him, and a faint smile grew on her face as he wiped her cheeks. "My own grandparents couldn't do it for me and I loved them more than anything. You the one for me ma. That's why I ain't told you everything yet 'cause I don't wanna run you away. I need you." He laid his forehead against hers, gently kissing her lips. "Nobody will ever believe that King Von from O Block be crying to me like this." She smiled as she gazed into his red eyes, and he chuckled, nodding in agreement. "I ain't King Von wit' you. Just love." He kissed her cheek next, and her smile grew as her arms tightened around him for a warm hug.
