" Oh Angel, I have forgotten how amusing you can be. Come on do you really expect me to believe that you are a rug muncher, " Trent said most obnoxiously way, the laughter on his face drying up to something ugly as he glared at her. Evangel bristled at the nickname and his taunting words." Hey, young man that is my daughter you are speaking to, " her dad scolded before Evangel could talk but that didn't stop her from putting Trent's arrogance in his place." You are laughable if you believe that I expect anything from you, " she spat with disdain allowing her eyes to reflect how much she loathed him." If there is anything twelve years ago has thought me is never to expect anything from men. "Trent's arrogant smirk disappeared at her words and he regarded her with intense look in his eyes." Do you want me to believe that you abhor men and is now a lesbian, " he arched his brow at her. " No thanks to you, " Evangel taunted and smirked to herself when she saw a flash of irritation c
Trent stared transfixed at the apparition that was his past.If not for the loud assshit of music playing in the background Trent would have thought he was dreaming. Not that he dreams about the stunning woman standing frozen in front of him.The sight of her brought back their highschool memories. He couldn't believe how mean he was.He sighed. Unfortunately if Evangel Clark was in his dream that will definitely be a nightmare. The girl hates his guts and he doesn't blame her not after the way things ended between them.What an asshole he was back there.In school he had been arrogant and vain. He had the looks and the cash and girls were all over him which further fed his vainess that he didn't realize the diamond he had in his palms until he lost it.He had missed the stunning brunette after she disappeared in the middle of their senior year. For a two weeks he never looked nor fucked another girl as he mourned the loss of Evangel Clark.When two weeks turned three and he realized t
Except for her there is no woman Trent has ever been with that regrets being with him. He always makes sure to leave his women with a smile on their faces even when he isn't going to call them back.Her constant denial that she wasn't going to marry him made Trent want to marry her even more just for the sake of having the last laugh.They were still on the topic of the brunette marrying him and her preferring girls, not that he was buying it when they were joined by a party of two.His attention was immediately snagged by the young woman who accompanied the man.She was hot and bore a striking resemblance to Evangel. If he didn't know any better he would think them twins. Probably cousins or something because when they were dating he knew Evangel to be the only girl.Initially he had thought her the only child and had only found out about an older brother deep into their relationship. That is how tight lip the brunette was about herself.No wonder he didn't know she was the daughter
I didn't think it will take this long to get to my cousin who is on the other side of the room. It shouldn't have but I lost count of the number of guests that stopped me on the way to ask about Trent. Maybe because I was trying to hold in my anger that I forgot how to count.Finally, I got to my destination.The beautiful welcoming smile that lit up his face when he saw me went a long way to calm my anger, because I was almost boiling by the time I reached him." Why the long-face princess? " He asked once I was within reach. A little frowny expression appeared on his handsome face.Tito is one of her favorite cousins. He is the son of her father's third brother, Jacob. The Clark clan is so big with so many uncles and aunties, and plenty of cousins to keep track of.With her brother away all the time, Evangel would have felt like the only child had it not been for her family. But of all of them, Tito was the best. They get along so well that most think of them, as real brothers and s
" Ew! " Evangel made a face, and then sobered up as she regarded her cousin seriously." Stay away from him, " she warned. Her cousin is always attracted to the badboy types but Trent doesn't just flaunt the badboy look he is bad." Why? "Evangel thought back to high school and how Trent and his friends had beat up a guy because he was gay." Let's say he is a dangerous homophobic. " " How did you know? " There was plain curiosity written all over Tito's face as he regarded his cousin. Evangel can be a little secretive when it comes to her life. He was her favorite cousin yet he barely know much about her." We had a history in high school, " Evangel muttered reluctantly. She didn't want to bring it up but knew it was futile to hide it because soon everyone in the family will know unless she doesn't know her cousin Veronica well. She was certain that her beautiful cousin would have wiggled out her history with Trent by now.Evangel's face flushed red with heat at the thought of the
Trenton and Veronica dance lit up the whole room like the so many fancy Chandeliers hanging off the ceiling of the room, gathering everyone's attention except for one person as they moved fluidly and sensually to the classic permeating the room like air.Their perfect synchrony and beautiful movement sparked up the tension in the room as some of the spectators watched them with interest, and some with something else in mind.Trent was enjoying al the attention on him because he has always loved being the center of attraction but there was only one person's attention he was interested in. His eyes whisked away momentarily from the sensual bundle that is the woman in his arms to the one the one he wanted in his arms, but landed on the wrong group of people.Two elderly well dressed gentlemen and their equally fancy looking older wives who were gawking at him like he is some steak displayed on the grilling machine cooked and yummy ready to be consumed.A smug smirk curved his lips as he
When Evangel reached her cousin Tito who stood behind the gathered crowd she moved in behind him and used her front knees to nudge him behind his knees causing them to bend and him to stumble forward smacking into the next person ahead of him. She muffled her amusement with the back of her hand. " Sorry, " Tito apologized to the man in front of him before turning sharply to his cousin a deep frown knitting his forehead. " What did you do that for? " he hissed through tightly glaring at the laughing blonde. " Serves you right for pawning me off back there, " she retorted, her blue eyes glittering with amusement. Tito huffed at her exaggeration. " Firstly, I didn't pawn you off, you are not a piece of jewelry. Secondly, it is just a dance, I didn't think you minded. "" Well, I did, " Evangel responded in all seriousness losing all trace of humor in her face. The last thing she wanted to be was in Trent's arms not with the way her body was acting around him, or for him to find out sh
Trent was greatly surprised when Evangel's old man called out his name to come up and join him as he cut his birthday cake. The sound of his name generated a curious buzz as people began to wonder who he was. When he finally made an appearance from between the gathered crowd___ his cocky, and arrogant confidence in place___the buzz changed. The crowd began to wonder what his relationship with the celebrant family was. It amused him how quickly they jumped to associating him with Evangel. The speculation was about him being her boyfriend. A faint smile stretched his lips when he looked to feel twin blue orbs glaring daggers at him. Judging from the deep frown pulling at her brow he wasn't the only one picking up the speculations. It must incise her that her dad had called him up, knowing it will spark up rumors about them. Knowing the woman, she would hate having people think they are together. The old man's action proves that he wasn't the only one desperate for this union and that
