Cold Hearted Princess

Chapter 144 Just a childhood friend

I didn’t kiss him, or hugged ham. I just walked inside, and I sat on my sofa. He followed me.

I could feel my eyes filled with tears again, which I hated, so I turned my head away and I crossed my

He sighed and moved closer. Finally he went down on his knees, which surprised me a lot, then he laid his head on my lap, hugging my tights.

“I’m sorry, Alice. I just got so angry. Seth called me, and he said you and that guy were so intimate on the ice.”

I only took a deep breath.

“It’s just. I’m jealous. I lost you once, and I’m afraid of losing you again.”

“Did he also tell you what he asked me and what my answer was? Did he also tell you I was practising with him on the ice? Have you ever seen ice dancers perform?”

I asked him quietly. I knew what Seth wanted, and I was afraid if Gideon could be led so easily when it was about me, Seth would make him leave me in no time.

He straightened up and looked at me. He moved next to me and he held me in his embrace. I laid my head on his shoulder.

“He asked me to leave you, because your family needs you, and he blamed me for you refuse to help them. I told him, I won’t do that, so he tried to threaten me, but I reminded him about I am not alone anymore, and he could be in serious trouble if he treats me like before.” I sighed. “Don’t you realise he wanted this exactly? He just wanted to make you angry at me so you would leave me.“He hugged me tighter before I heard him talk.

“He would never succeed in it, Alice. I’m so sorry.”

He moved my head so he could kiss my forehead first, then he poured kisses on my face and he ended up kissing me. I gave up, and I kissed him back. It took only a minute for him to take me into bed. He was gentle with me, more gentle than usual. He really loved me and he wanted to make me feel

that.

I couldn’t be angry with him any longer. I desperately wanted to feel him. After facing Seth, I needed him close to me as much as possible. He played with me a little only to increase our desire, but finally I got what I wanted. Being with him was amazing, as usual. We reached our climaxes quickly, and we calmed down in each other’s arms.

It took me a while to speak, but I wanted to tell him about Lucas. Just to make him understand, he had nothing to worry about.

“Gideon, I didn’t know he was coming, but he was invited to the gala. His partner’s relative passed away suddenly, so knowing that I used to do ice dancing with him, Gareth asked me if I could jump in to help him with training, as they didn’t want to cancel their program.”

He didn’t move, just listened to me

“In ice dancing, we must hold each other. Many times it looks intimate, but we also support each other. If he’s not holding my waist, or sometimes my inner thigh, then he can’t support me from falling. I have to do the same to support him as well. But this is a sport, a beautiful sport, an art, Gideon, nothing else.”

He sighed.

I have known him since we were kids. If I ever would have wanted to be with him, I could do that. But he has always been a friend of mine, and he remains a friend only. And yes, I spent time with him today after training, and it felt so nice. I wanted to tell you how happy I was today, but you argued with me, and also made me think you
