Love Game With The Rebel Billionaire

Chapter 92: Heartless And Merciless (Prologue of Book 2)

WHAT CAN one do if they were heavenly broken, destroyed... and lost?

All these years, I felt nothing but anger and pain. I tried to let it go, but those emotions kept piling up to the point that I couldn't think straight anymore.

The pain was so overwhelming that I wanted to lash out... or disappear entirely. But I knew that wasn't the solution to the problems I was facing. Yet, the reason for all that pain was standing right in front of me.

"Sapphire," Ash addressed me, flashing his infamous smirk. "It's nice to see you again, isn't it?"

He looked the same, but something's different. I just couldn't figure out what exactly it was... but I was too numb to care.

Unlike before, I couldn't read his emotions anymore. They were too... dark. The once-loving eyes that I used to see were completely gone.

Now, they were filled with pure hatred. He wasn't even trying to hide it.

And I couldn't understand where that hatred came from. I should be the one angry at him. I lost everything because of him... to the point that I no longer feared losing anything else.

"Is it?" I asked back, taking a step closer to him. "I beg to disagree. You, of all people, are the last person I'd wish to see again."

Every word I uttered was filled with disgust and fury. If I could turn back time, I'd undo the day I met him. To this day, I can't believe I ever loved a man like him.

A manipulative, wicked bastard who even had the audacity to show up here after shooting me that day.

The memory was still vivid in my mind. I'd never, ever forget it.

We were at the beach, though I don't even know why we went there. The sun was blazing. It should've been a place to calm our minds and refresh our souls with its breathtaking view... but here we were, ready to set the ocean on fire at any moment.

Two demons in one place were never a good idea.

"Aw, that hurts, baby," he teased, chuckling slightly.

This time, he was the one who stepped closer until our skin touched. I pulled my arm away when it grazed his chest, but he immediately caught my hand.
