Xavier

I suggest you think about packing up and going back home.

Xavier

How fucking dare you.

Xavier

She’s my baby and now you’ve got her pregnant!?

Xavier

I’m going to murder you in your sleep Titty.

I sigh, switching my phone off and kneel down in front of her. I gently push her to lay back on the soft ground and I lay my head on her stomach.

“How badly is this going to fuck up the plan?” she asks, and I feel her voice vibrate through her body.

“I have no idea,” and that’s the truth, “your father hasn’t been very forthcoming with what the actual plan is…”

I lift my head and turn to face her.

“Will this mean this whole arranged marriage is over?” I don’t miss the sad smile that graces her lips.

“I wish I knew how to answer that question Twilight, I really do.”

A heavy sigh leaves her before she flops back down, and I go back to resting on her stomach. I have no idea how long we lay here for, but by the time we decide to move, dusk is setting in.

“Do you know what I hate the most about this whole situation?” I mutter, exhaustion blanketing me.

“What?” she sleepily replies, her fingernails tickling over my head.

“That I can’t love you out loud.”

Her fingers stop almost instantly, and I realize why.

Love.

CHAPTER FIFTY

AMORA

That I can’t love you out loud.

My heart shatters in my chest.

Love.

My fingers begin moving again as I try and let his words sink in.

“I hate that too,” I finally muster the words to answer him.

“To watch you marry someone else…” I feel his arms tighten round my waist, “to not be able to kiss you whenever I want… I am desperate to love you for all to see, but I have to love you in secret and that’s what is killing me.”

“Titus,” I whisper, slowly sitting up and forcing him to move his head.

“I love you, Twilight.”
