"They were not convicted maybe because they were innocent. Don't judge people without knowing them deeply, Jax. Carter is a good person and so as his family. You are the wrong between us because I'm sure I am not dating the wrong guy." "Damn, Eve. I know you are such a risk-taker, all right. But will you please listen to me even just for this once?" "I will only listen you to if you are reasonable enough, Jax. But how can I believe you if you do not have proofs on hand for all your baseless accusations? You are the one that should stop this, Jax. I will not buy anything that you say about Carter. He and his family doesn't deserve all the bad things you used to describe them." I don't like anyone even my friend talking bad about Carter. I understand that he looks really dangerous and snob but it doesn't mean that they will just judge him just like that. "If you have nothing good to say, then I need to go. I still have classes," I said firmly and was ab

"Don't tell me you have a chopper at your house's backyard?" I asked while grinning."We don't, but I can buy one. I also knows how to fly one, even a plane," he said plainly, without a hint of arrogance but any human man who would hear it would surely be hit by insecurity."Is there even something that you can't do?" I think it is also a perk of being alive for centuries. You can try out everything without worrying about time."Actually, there is."My eyes narrowed. "What?" Because for me, it seems like there is nothing he can't do. Every time I look at him, he always give me the impression of someone who is capable of doing anything that he would want. He has the air that screams power and authority as though he is invincible. That is why to hear him say himself that there is something that he is not capable of doing, it sounds very new and I can't help but be somehow astonished."I can't stop loving you."The wind blew my hair. Half of hi

"Hi, Eve! It's good that you have accepted my invitation. Hello, Carter," Irish said enthusiastically with Peter beside her. We just met outside Lynnwood, in the establishment where we agreed to watch the new movie she was talking about."Hi, Eve and uh... Carter," Peter greeted me with a smile but when he mentioned Carter's name and his eyes drifted to him, his smile became uneasy. He looked suddenly nervous.I can't blame him. Carter is such effortlessly intimidating. You know, every time you look at him, the first thing you would notice is his intimidating air that is screaming with authority and dominance like no other. I know because I once experience to be initimidated with him so bad.Actually, Carter still do intimidate me sometimes, but I am much more comfortable with him now that we already have a relationship and we have the chance to know each other deep each day. I only feel awkward around him seldomly, when we talk about s

"You have known him for that long as well, but there must be things you don't know about him yet," Carter said with a lower voice as if he intentionally lowered it to hide something he did not want me to sense."I don't understand. You sound like you know something about him that I don't."He sighed. "I do know something about that boy that you don't. But his story is not mine to tell. Even if I don't see him as something vital in this world, I think he still has the right to say it to you himself. Well, that is if he ever has a plan to tell you."What Carter said was a big puzzle to me. But this time, I know that even if I insist that he should tell me, I know that he won't. And I think he also has a point. If it something confidential, then it is not his story to tell anymore. The thing here is, I'm not sure what he is referring to. Is it some sort of a secret that Jaxon has yet to tell me? Or not should be told but I shou

"Hi, Eve. I'm Roselle. Welcome to our home," Roselle said in her sweet, feminine voice that could surely sooth anyone's heartaches."Hello," I replied, a bit fluttered."Here is Franklin, my husband," she added."It is nice to meet you, Eve," Franklin said in a deep baritone. He is very manly and I'm sure even with all his children, women would still go beyond hell just to have him. But I don't think he would even glance at other women with him having a wife as beautiful as Roselle."So it's really true that Mayor Walter's daughter is really beautiful," Roselle praised. I could feel the heat on my cheeks."Ah," I smiled shyly because I didn't know what to say.I just glanced around to ease the tension I am feeling. Like Carter had said, everyone is present. Sitting on the sofa were Thomas and Crislord, both observing the happenings. Travis is standing near the staircase, playing with somethin
