Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia) novel Chapter 1508

He had never had such a strong desire for a woman before. Wyatt chuckled as he wondered whether or not he was poisoned.

"Oh Wyatt," He thought, "The h*ll is your pride? You're doing all this, for a woman? When had you been so humble, hmm? Never! So she's a little bit more beautiful than the others, bah! There are others more stunning than her! Don't you usually turn away a woman like her? What's changed? Why her? Why her?!"

He needed his pride back, but it was long gone. Waverly came, and when she left, his pride left with her.

Yeah!

He just wanted her!

Why, though? Why? Was it because he had been intimate with her? They had been intimate, yet he had never had the right to call her his own.

He didn't know when she snuck into his heart, but what he knew was that he was bewitched. Really bewitched. He wanted her. He couldn't deny that he wanted her. Even though right then, she was probably lying under that d*mn officer, doing that disgusting thing with that d*mn b*stard!

He clenched his fists, loosened them, then clenched them again. He closed his eyes, but then images of her haunted his mind. He felt something missing from his heart. Wyatt's face fell as his expression darkened.

Does she treat other men like that, too? Does she just barge into their lives, mesmerize them, and leave them yearning for her? Oh, Waverly, she shouldn't have broken into Wyatt's life. What has she done to him?

Why?

Everything was going so well. She was supposed to be his! He never should've let her go. Never!

Wyatt gnashed his teeth and started resenting himself. When did it start? What did that woman do to his heart?

Memories showered his mind as he shuddered. Everything started going wrong after Raynee's d*mn friends bullied his precious little widow. She changed after that. She used to be so emotional. When he bothered her, she wouldn't have hesitated to yell at him. Even when he dragged her to the club, she was so upset about it, but when things went wrong, she still stood by his side.

He knew she didn't hate him as much as she claimed to. Otherwise, why else would she compromise so much, for his sake?

"Waverly—"

Wyatt murmured her name unconsciously. He was going through an emotional rollercoaster. He wanted to go to her, but his phone rang abruptly. That pulled him back to reality. He peeked at the caller ID. "Raynee". Scorn immediately took over his lovesickness. He answered the phone, nevertheless.

"Yes?"

"After this competition, after this performance, I'll go back, and we'll get married." Wyatt didn't know how many times he had heard that. Every performance was the "last", lies! He had to deal with her and his family. He had to deal with loneliness and fatigue. He had to deal with everything. He was there for her, but who was there for him? She turned against his family for her d*mn career, and she didn't even try to compromise! He tried so, so hard to persuade her. And after so many years, she wouldn't at least do it with him. And what excuse did she give him? "What if I get pregnant?" He had tried many ways and proposed many solutions, but she was just so stubborn.

As a dancer, her figure was the most important thing to her, so she couldn't get pregnant. That was why she was reluctant to agree to his family's request.

But of course she could do whatever she wanted! He was the one bearing the consequences of her waywardness. How many people had tried to talk him into breaking up with her? Some even tried forcing him, but he was, too, just so stubborn. Did she even know how much he had had to bear for their relationship? Did she, at least, recognize his efforts?

Even when they fought, or during the lowest points in his life, she would refuse to come to him. He didn't have a choice. He dragged Waverly in as a last resort to give her more time, but once again, she was one step away from greatness. Once again, she missed it. He asked her to not be so persistent anymore, he told her that, sometimes, it was okay to give up. To be frank, he occasionally thought that she was just not fated to be champion, but he didn't say that. He didn't want to hurt her. He had questioned neither her skills nor her professionalism. He just wanted her to come home.

Looking back at their relationship, he was always the one giving in, the one accommodating her. He did it all for their relationship. Of course, he never thought he'd fall for Waverly. He never wanted to fall for Waverly, but it just happened. He had known Raynee for way longer, but his desire to possess Waverly was way stronger. Regardless, Raynee just had to take her away from him, too. His only chance at happiness. She destroyed his Waverly! She changed his Waverly!

Wyatt could feel nothing else but hatred for the woman on the phone.

Wyatt's sudden burst of emotions made Raynee's face pale. "What do you mean?" She mumbled, "Could it be that...Wyatt, was it you?"

She was posing a question, but she sounded certain. On the other end of the phone, Raynee widened her eyes in disbelief.
