Chapter 47-2

It was hurting like crazy and my emotions were upside down,

I had never felt this way over anybody before for a while and I knew the amount of pain my heart was going through at the moment. It almost felt like I couldn’t breathe,

I knew what was wrong with me. I had fallen in love with my cold-hearted mate without realizing it.

But it seemed Bryan was right. I was just a nobody to Dexter. As I stared at the wall clock, I finally made my decision to end everything and leave

DEXTER:

I had not expected Scarlett to lean closer to me and kiss me, but when she did, I had no idea what my next reaction would be. I had no idea how to react so with my lips still sealed and her lips still on mine, I didn’t push her away,

My mind wanted me to push her away, but my body didn’t. I was conflicted until I heard a sound behind me and I cocked my head backward to see Amelia standing behind me,

I saw the shocked expression on her face as she stared at me and I instantly realized she must have seen everything,

My gaze didn’t leave her, not even for a second and I took a few steps away from Scarlett,

"Amelia..." I called, but before I could take another step, she took to her heels,

I tried to trail behind Amelia, but Scarlett held my hand back,

"Dexter, don’t go." She uttered as I cocked my head back at her. I sneered angrily, "Please, stay with me, Dexter. You love me too, I know you always have and I love you too. We can both make this workout, please."

This was what I had always wanted, but in the past so maybe I didn’t want that anymore. I knew I was the worst person for Scarlett and being with her was impossible because I would forever be hunted by the guilt that I killed her father,

"It’s complicated, Scarlett," I responded, not wanting to prolong the conversation so I could run after Amelia,

She wrapped her arms around my waist from behind,

"I’m asking you to choose me, Dexter, choose me and not her. I really can’t bear losing you to her because it hurts so bad" I shut my eyes for a few seconds,

One month ago, I was dying to hear this from Scarlett, but not anymore. I gently released her hold around her and without looking back, I dashed away, heading back to the hall and hoping to see Amelia seated at the table,

"Where’s Amelia?" I questioned Clara who was seated with Tyson, but she raised her brows at me,

"She should be with you, Dexter; she was coming to you." Clara uttered and I roughly wrecked my fingers into my neatly arranged hair, "Damnit." I murmured, staring at the exit,

"What happened? Is Amelia okay?" Clara questioned as she rose to her feet,

"Cut the questions, Clara, we need to replace Amelia, now!"
