Forbidden.
One word, 9 letters.
The word itself simply draws you in, intrigues you, perks that interest of yours.
I really goddamn wish it didn't, i really goddamn wish he wasn't forbidden and the thing i wish most of all? I wish i didn't commit the act of fucking eve and take the goddamn fruit. Look what happened there, she doomed us all to pain when what should have been a happy moment in our life's, just like i have doomed myself. Doomed myself to be ruined for life, to never love, to never feel or to be touched like this again.
I knew i should have stayed away, i knew i shouldn't have been a fucking cliche and fell for that arrogant stupid goddamn smile or that arrogant stupid goddamn mouth of his, but i did. I knew he was forbidden and i knew the dangers. Did it stop me? Did it stop fucking eve? No it didn't, because that simple word and those simple 9 letters just makes everyone want it more.
My name is Alexandria Monroe and this is how i committed the selfish act of eve.
