His Lovely Obsession novel Chapter 68

Oh my God! She cried to herself.

What she wanted to say suddenly seemed to have been stuck in her throat. No sound came out of her mouth though her brain was telling her to explain herself.

Nick raised his left brow . "You became quiet all of a sudden honey."

"W-Why do you want to see the video?"

He shrugged his shoulders. He took the bottle of booze and gulped some of it. He wiped his mouth with the back of his hand as he continues to look at her.

" You seem to be keeping something from me. You are nervous as a cat honey. If you don't want me to see the recording then maybe you can tell me what exactly happened."

He knows damn well that Stacey is hiding something from her. He was really going to be hopping mad anytime soon.

"I-I really w-wanted to tell you. " she said Her voice sounds so small. She almost shrieked when Nick put down the bottle with a thud.

"I asked you if there is still something I should know but you said none!" His words are icicles. His eyes are like slits.

She nervously ran the tip of her tongue on her lips. "H-Honey, sorry. Please don't be angry. I just didn't where to start ." She is playing with her fingers to ease her nervousness.

He leaned forward from his seat. "How many times have I told you that I don't want that f*cking asshole near you?!" His tone wasn't high but it sure was scary.

She lowered her head to look at her hands which are on her lap. "It wasn't in the original plan that he would join us. He just asked Eve to buy stuff for him."

He let out a sarcastic laugh. "But when that trash learned that you were with his cousin, he suddenly wanted to see you." he said through gritted teeth.

"We are just friends as I told you before. He has a girlfriend and a son." She needs to reassure Nick that he has no reason to be jealous of Blake.

"What if he doesn't have a girlfriend and a son? Would you consider being his woman?" he asked unexpectedly.

She nipped her bottom lip. The past few days, she had contemplated on the thought of maybe if Blake is unattached, she would probably like him now. Her taste in men changed. She liked their type. Good-looking bad boys.

Nick clenched his fists as he waits for her answer.

I swear that I will injure that fucking asshole if she will say yes! He promised himself.

He almost punched his face if Stacey didn't give them a honk in his car's horn. . He can still remember their heated conversation.

"Stay away from Stacey." he told him menacingly.

"Who are you to tell me that? I have known her longer." Blake said in a cold voice.

"She is mine."

"You don't own her. Even if you do, I don't f&cking care. I will see her if I want to."

"You don't wanna know what I can do to you." Nick said through gritted teeth.

That's when they heard the sound of the horn.

"You don't scare me." Blake retorted as he glanced at the car.

"You don't want to see what I can do to keep her so don't f*ck with me." he threatened before he went back to his car.

"H-Honey..please..believe me. Don't worry about Blake. There's nothing between us." She may sound like a broken record but she is already desperate.

"You didn't answer my question."

She moistened her lips.

Realization struck her. She loves Nick. Before her feelings was thorn between him and Derick but she is sure now. It was Nick she really loves.. So even being attracted to Blake again was out of the question. She was willing to face the consequences of being Nick Alcantara's woman.

He angrily took his phone from his pocket again then walked to the kitchen. She got off the sofa to follow him.

His back was on her and had his phone on his right ear.

"Cruz! ..Nick Alcantara here.." he said in a clipped tone.

She decided to go back to the living room. She doesn't want to eavesdrop although she was curious to hear their conversation.

She stood by the window to look at the passing traffic below as she waits for him.

I do love him!

She was supposed to meet Derick but she was not excited unlike before her realization. Her love for Nick had gone deeper. Sacrificing her love for him to become Derick's girlfriend was not an option. Maybe this time, she should really start to think about her own happiness. She will just explain everything to Derick when she gets the chance. She did try very hard to avoid Nick and to stop herself from falling for him but it was just too impossible. She is really hoping that Derick would understand and eventually accept everything.

She sensed Nick's presence so she turned . He has a grim expression while his eyes are on her. She was dying to look at his bare torso but she mustn't. It would distract her.

"H-Honey..I'm sorry." she said sincerely.

He leaned his left shoulder on the kitchen's door frame. He crossed his arms on his chest.

His expression didn't change but he narrowed his eyes as if telling her to go on and talk which encouraged her a little.

"Honey.." she began again while she hugs herself.

He raised his left brow but didn't say anything.

She took a deep breath.

"You don't have to be jealous of Blake. Really you don't because I think I love you." she said huskily.
