63: Never Be Enough
His forehead creased and looked down on something of under the table. Eventually I realized he was typing on the cellphone because soon I beeped because of the message from him.
Sage:
Get a proper seat, please. The girls around you are quiet aggressive. You might even be pushed there. I'll surely make them pay for the damages.
"Shit he's looking again!"
"Oh my! Shedding panties!"
I nodded and kept smiling. I typed a reply.
Me:
It's fine. I will also be back backstage later. I'm just okay here. Just avoid looking at our direction. They’re just getting more and more lost.
Sage:
I'm watching you. Maybe you can.
I looked at him. He looked at me again. I smiled and shook my head slightly. I put the cellphone in my pocket when the production of the contestants started. Sage seemed inattentive on it, though. I notice that often, he thinks of me. When I couldn't stop myself, I texted him and told him to focus on the

The Demoness Alpha 66: What He Wants
"Wow! That's nice!" I exclaimed when I saw the high lighthouse in front of us.In front of it is a high cliff, marking the beautiful end of El Fuego. The rays of the afternoon sun and the blue sky above reflected in the sea stretching beyond the cliff. It almost looked surreal. Everything felt surreal."Let's go up," Sage said once looking at the lighthouse.When I nodded, he took my hand and guided me into it. I pressed my palm on his to feel more of its warmth as we walked on the stairs of the lighthouse.If I had been amazed before when I was still downstairs, I was even more amazed that I was already upstairs and could almost see everything. My lips parted in amazement. This is beyond wonderful.I gripped on the bannisters as the sharp wind blew my hair. I let you ripple like the sea in the distance."It's nice here, Sage!"Sage leaned against the railing. He raised an elbow there and bowed as he stared at me. My heart was beating

I could not answer. After gathering all my strength to ask him those things, this is what I've got. Finally, I also heard from him what he wanted to happen to us.I don't know how would I react. I know I hope so. That he was serious with me. But now that he finally said that he wants us, I don’t know what to say. It felt surreal. Like something close to impossible."You heard me, Kaia? I want your commitment. I want you committed to me." It was as if I was being pulled by his voice.I closed my eyes tightly and leaned my forehead on his shoulder. I inhaled and exhaled. I swallowed when I felt his little kiss on my hair."But I want you to know that there's no pressure. You're right. What I did wasn't purely chivalry. Believe me, I am no prince charming, I am no gentleman. I want you to know that this is what I feel. This is what I want. "I heard her sigh. He caressed my hair. I took a deep breath. I feel like I'm losing strength every second

I opened our rusty picket fence. The door of the house is open. I was about to enter and there I was surprised to see a familiar woman sitting on the old sofa in the living room.

But even so I was still happy we met again.I dropped the bag on the small table in the middle before sitting down on the opposite sofa. She looked so beautiful. Her hair was tied on a bun.

In their conversation Livius mentioned there the upcoming birthday of Sage. I want to interfere and ask the date but I bit my tongue to stop myself. Jonas looked at me with a raised eyebrow. He seemed to notice my restraint."August 19 is Sage's birthday. You don't know, Kaia?" Jonas asked casually, grinning. "For sure Tita Valerina will organize a big celebration for him. I'm sure he will invite you."I'm almost dizzy. Jonas was so tactless!
