Chapter 18

The following morning. I felt like shit. After I woke up from the fidiculous dream I had about Darius, I couldn’t sleep back. I was too spent to sleep. Mentally, I was messed up. My feelings were swinging between hatred and knocking on Darius’ door to get it done once and for all. If I maybe sleep with him, I wouldn’t have to deal with dreaming about fucking him but at the same time, I would rather cut off my hand than sleep with someone who broke me that way.

“Slept well?” Darius asked. He was standing by the door in Reina room, I was getting her ready so we could leave and have breakfast at my mom’s place. Because of what happened the previous morning, I decided to stay out of his kitchen.

I glared at him. “I did and you?” Reina was in the toilet, I couldn’t afford her listening to me cursing out her Uncle Darius.

“From the look on your face. I’m so sure you didn’t sleep a wink Missed me?”

“Yeah, I gave him a soft smile before I continued. “Missed smothering you in your sleep.”

He smirked. “Feisty as always. Love that about you,”

I was too tired to even give him a second mind. I was waiting for Reina to be done so we could leave.

“Mornin Uncle D.” Reina sang happily as she walked out of the bathroom, a large smile on her face as she saw Darius.
