But things change when she runs into Hunter Jackson. Both hate each other with a burning passion from the start but that quickly changes as Hunter starts to care for the sweet yet sassy redhead. As they fall for each other, a family ridden with greed and ill intentions threaten to break them apart. But somewhere along the way, Zoe finds everything she's looking for in Hunter. It's now a test of whether their love will survive. *** "Did you really have to hit him?" I ask quietly as I move to clean the cut on his lip and cheekbone. "Yes." I smack his chest lightly with a glare. "All we had to do was walk away, Hunt. You can't just go around hitting people, especially at someone else's house!" "Zoe, he's a sleaze bag! He harasses women every chance he can get!" He argues as I apply ointment to everywhere besides his lip. "Still Hunter, you shouldn't have -" "He deserved it and I'm not sorry about ruining his stupid face!" He crosses his arms with an adamant huff. I close the kit with a slam before standing and making my way back to the bathroom. "I can't believe I'm in love with an idiot." "Wait...you love me?" I freeze before turning to face him slowly. Fuck me, did I say that out loud?! I think to myself in horror. "Uh...it depends..." "On what?" He frowns in confusion as he stands. "If you love me too?" I ask bravely while my poor heart hammers away in my chest. He shakes his head with an amused chuckle before staring at me with...adoration? "I love you too." I blink in surprise before nodding my head dazedly. "Good." "Great." He grins widely as we just stand there staring at each other. "Can I have a kiss now?" "What for? Breaking someone's nose? I don't think so." Published to Wattpad: Cover: WYLD_ROSE © 2020 - 2021 WYLD_ROSE ALL RIGHTS RESERVED
