Too Much to Bear My Love

Cassie was so exasperated that her chest hurt. He’s been faking it all along?

“That’s enough, June. It’s over between us, so there’s no point trying to stay in touch. You should leave Chanaea if you know better, lest you wanna stay stuck in a foreign land.”

June glared at Cassie viciously. “You’re threatening me?”

While speaking, he took out a few CDs. “These are our videos. You like it exciting, don’t you? Would Oscar still think of you as the innocent, unsullied girl if I were to show him these? I said you look like an angel, but I left out another word. You’re a fallen angel; you might be able to deceive every man with your looks, but you’re actually wilder than any other woman out there.”

Cassie’s face immediately paled. Her lips couldn’t stop quivering as her teeth chattered.

“We were in love for four years, June. Do you really have to do this?”

June fiddled with the CDs in his hand. “Come back to me and I’ll tell our families that we’re getting married. I’m sure the Yard family would be thrilled about you having such an outstanding boyfriend.”

Cassie refused to cave in. “You’ve gone too far, June! We can’t go back to the past anymore. You’re well-off and good-looking, so I’m sure many other girls are into you. Can’t we go back to being friends?”

“I told you that the game’s not over until I say so. If you can’t get over Oscar Clinton, I’ll show him what kind of woman you are. I heard he still thinks you’re a pure and sheltered girl, but only an idiot would ever think of you as a shining angel.”

Cassie trembled all over.

She had never expected June to be such an animal. Throughout the four years they were together, the man had treated her like a princess and used his power to pave the way for her career. That was how she had managed to become the best pianist in just a few years. On top of that, June had always treated her kindly, but it was only now that she realized the man was nothing but a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

“You’re a monster, June.”

“Come back to me, and I’ll turn back into the nice guy you’ve always known,” June said in an arrogant tone.

Cassie raised her chin haughtily. “I’m not the ignorant young woman from back then anymore, June. You won’t be able to win me over like that. If we’re not meant to be, we’re not meant to be. That’s how love is. You can’t call yourself a man if you keep acting like a sore loser.”

June got up, his tall figure making Cassie feel slightly cornered. “Have you forgotten, Baby? You told me that you’d be mine if I turned you into a well-known pianist when we went to Erihal together. But now that you’ve gotten a little famous, you want to return to your ex? That’s not going to happen.”

Cassie gritted her teeth. “What do you want, June? Is it money? A new market in Chanaea? Just say the word, and the Yard family will work with you. But when things do take off, please stop clinging onto me. I don’t love you, so I won’t be happy if you force me to stay.”

June suddenly grabbed hold of Cassie and kissed her by force. Then, he led her to the bed before pinning her down. “June!” she screamed. “Touch me, and I’ll call the cops!”

June couldn’t care less; he continued to smother her in kisses.

Despite the woman cursing at him relentlessly, she soon felt herself being led away by June’s impeccable skills. Two hours had passed by the time they were done.

Cassie lay in bed exhausted as June caressed her smooth body. “Baby, you keep saying you want to break up with me, but your body obviously tells me otherwise. Can Oscar even satisfy you like this in bed?”

Cassie slapped his hand away, got off the bed, and picked up her clothes on the floor. “It’s over between us, June. Consider this a repayment of debt. Try anything funny again, and I won’t hesitate to make you pay.”
