Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 58

❝The heart wants what it wants❞

.•*•.

"When a woman has that look on her face, she's missing her lover" Colt says with a smirk on his face when he sits down next to me in the hallway. Rolling my eyes I raise an eyebrow at him. "First I don't have a look on my face and second he's not my lover" I tell him and his smirk only grows wider. "Yeah, keep telling yourself that" He says as he comes even closer to me and wraps an arm around my body and pulls me against. "When a woman is stubborn and doesn't close inside when she's freezing, she's going to catch a cold" He tells me.

Honestly, Colt is growing rather annoying but then again he's always been annoying to me. "A cold is a normal thing" I tell him as I shiver which only makes him wrap both his arms around me and pull me into his lap to keep me warmth but I do get the feeling there is another reason for why he does this but I don't know that reason. "Colt, let me go" I tell him but the smile on my face is hard to hide.

"Now, why would I let go a pretty woman, it's such a shame that you're already married or else I would've made you mine a long time ago" Colt whispers into my ear which sends shivers down my spine or perhaps that is just from the cold or maybe both. At this point I can't even tell. "That did not stop you from kissing me" I say. Over the last tow months I've been reminding him of that and I truly think that he feels bad about it but he doesn't want to admit it because 'A man never apologizes for kissing a pretty lady'.

To me that is the most ridiculous reason in the world but then again Colt is rather strange so it does make sense. Colt is a mixture or sarcasm and cheesy lines which for the record isn't the best combination but at the same time he is rather fun to be around and I'm never that bored when I'm with him. I finally break myself free from his grip and stand up. Instantly regretting it because it sends a bit of pain through my toes because of the cold and they aren't getting any warmer.

"I think I should be heading to bed, it's late and I'm cold" I tell him and he nods as he stands up but doesn't move. I turn around and start to slowly walk to the guest floor. But then I turn around once again to face and see that he's in the place as he was before. "And while he may not be my lover, I do miss him" I say to Colt before I turn around again and heading back my way, not bothering to wait for his response since I'm not that interested in hearing it.

My body is aching all over from the cold and my skin is freezing to the touch. I did stay out there much longer than my body can handle and I'm pretty sure my lips are pale blue or something from the cold. Yet, when I was out there the cold didn't seem like that big of a deal, it was there but my mind was somewhere else to think about how I was freezing. The snow did not help either with the cold and it only makes everything much colder, especially when I walked back inside and into the warmth.

As I'm walking towards the guest floor I find my thoughts running over to Sebastian for the hundredth time this day. It has been two months since I've seen him and while I've not changed a lot except for my hair and nails growing longer, I'm not sure if he has changed. A part of me is afraid to see him again, to see him become cruel to me again like he was when we first met but there is also a part of me that feels relief that he might be changed back into his old self.

That way he isn't pretending to be someone he's not and we can all move on with our lives as mine is about to take a turn in just a couple of weeks when the year will be over and I will finally be free and out in the world again. That is for the best, the feelings that I believed I had for him were just me getting caught in the moment and I needed comfort because of the hurt in my heart and he was the only one that was there for me, he was the only one there.

I finally look up from the ground that I had been looking at this entire time when I was walking to see that I'm standing in front of Sebastian's room. My jaw nearly drops open when I stand here and I'm not sure why I had walked over here and I had not even noticed that I was going here. It was like some part inside of me went here without me knowing or wanting to. I stand there for a couple of seconds before the war in my mind has come to an agreement and my hand snakes to the door handle and open the door.

To my surprise it's unlocked and I walk inside the dark room. As soon as I step inside the lights automatically turn on and I'm met with memories when we made a deal that I had lost and I had to sleep in his bed. I stood in the same place that I do now as I undressed before him out of the clothes that I wore. I close the door and smile to myself. The room smells like him and it makes me miss him even more. I lie down on his bed and go under the covers and close my eyes, allowing his scent to lull me to sleep.

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR 400K READS ON DEAL WITH THE DEVIL! ❤️

So, I've been thinking since it's summer that starting on July the 1st that I would update 2 chapters a day every single day of the month. That means that I would update one chapter in the morning and one chapter in the evening (according to my time in my country which doesn't mean exactly the same time as for you, the world doesn't have the same times so it might not be those for some of you) and update every single day and finish the story in July.

What do you think of that plan? Should I do it or should I keep to the normal schedule? (And yes I do have a schedule for this book if you have not noticed) I want to hear your thoughts on the matter because your voices mean a lot to me. This offer is because summer is here and I'm in a good mood (and I did not get the job I wanted because of the crisis in the world) so I will have a lot of free time this summer.

However, there might come days where I will update two times the evening or morning, depending on what I'm doing as I will also be spending the summer with my family and friends so I might be busy sometimes and the updates might change a bit but I will try as hard as I can to stick to updating in the mornings and evenings.

Thank you for your time. Love you all so much❤️
