The Girl He Craves

Chapter 39

Chapter 39

Sophie’s pov

There are a million thoughts storming through my mind at this moment. Some didn’t even make sense.

Who’s standing before me didn’t make sense.

Was I even making sense?

My throat feels tight, emotions go haywire in my body. My heart is thumping loudly. I can’t think properly.

Standing before me, dressed in an expensive suit was Aiden Xavier. My high school bully, the guy I love, the guy who was supposed to be in jail. Ashton’s father…

I gulped.

He still looked the same after all those years. His blue eyes were still so beautiful, though I noted a strange look in them. They were dead.

And his lips. So straight, stiff, and unsmiling.

The power that radiated off of him had me squirming.

My mouth feels dry

He changed. Something was different about him.

He froze when he heard my voice and when his cold eyes fell into mine just like they always had done before, I felt heat swim in between my thighs.

He could still get a reaction out of me without even trying.

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised about that.

But what I was surprised about was Aiden ripping his eyes away from mine and continuing to speak on the phone while ignoring me completely.

Why was his eyes so cold when they stared into mine? Why did he stare at me blankly? Did he not remember me?

My heart slammed in my chest harshly. Can he really forget me so quickly?
