Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 65

❝Not the right answer❞

.•*•.

"Are you planning on sitting there all day?" Sebastian asks. I heard his footsteps coming but I only glare at him. "Why do you care?" I ask him. I'm annoyed and angry at him. He sighs as he sits down next to me. "While I cannot tell you that, I will answer one of your questions, none that are regarding what we discussed" He says to me. I look up at him for a moment. His face is emotionless but his eyes are showing me regret and guilt. He probably feels guilty about not being able to tell me anything.

My heart feels for him. A couple of seconds pass by as I think of what I can ask him. There are about a million questions that I would like to ask him but I've no clue what I want now until I realize one thing. Paris. "Why did you kiss that woman in Paris?" I ask him. Not once do I look away from his face as I see his eyes turn to shock and the guilt only grows in his eyes. Good. He feels horrible about it and he should. 13

He was a married man that kissed some woman. "That kiss meant nothing to me" He answers a couple of minutes later but that isn't good enough for me. "I asked you why you kissed her and not what it meant. You said you'd answer a question so answer it" I say to him. Watching as the guilt grows even more and I can tell that this is destroying him from the inside out. Sebastian's gaze then hardens and his eyes go blank for a moment as he stands up from the ground. "She was beautiful and she offered me what you could not" He finally says to me as he walks away. 123

I stand up and follow him. The tears that had stopped before have started again and I feel them run down my cheeks from my eyes. My heart is hurting so much to hear this and I can't handle it anymore. I stop following him and just watch him disappear as he goes further away and turns around a corner. Leaving me crying and my heart broken for the millionth of time. The anger inside me only growing as I walk somewhere. Never caring where I'm going. Somewhere I find a door that leads to the garden. 10

Walking out into the snow, not caring about how I am still sick and how cold the air is. I just keep walking. Away from the house, away from him and just away. The garden is sealed off but that doesn't stop me from going somewhere. I walk near a tree that is rather familiar to me when he and I slept under it and it seems so long ago. Sitting in the snow and allowing to cool me down to the point that I'm a shivering mess out here but I don't move away.

The things that he said are correct. He married me because he wanted to help my father and my family but he also did cheat and he did kiss another woman and I'm not sure if he has kissed more women or done anything else. I'm reminded at the dinner party that he hosted and how his butler told me that he did not sleep (in that way) with that prostitute but why should I believe him? Sebastian has most likely been with more women than I can count and even when we were married.

Perhaps I just mean so little to him that he doesn't he care about me but then why did he take care of me when I was sick? When I am sick? He stayed by my side and he gave me food and comfort. I wonder if that is just his way of trying to uphold that deal that we made, the deal that has been hanging over me for a long time and I don't think it will ever go away. "You know, if you're trying to get more sick than you're doing a great job at it" Colt says. 9

I roll my eyes. "Go away, I want to be alone" I tell him but in truth I just want someone to hug me and hold me, tell me that everything will be all right and my heart doesn't have to hurt this much but it is and there is no one to hug me and hold me. "I assume that idiot has somehow messed something up?" He asks me and I smile at him as he sits down next to me in the snow. I try not to shiver as much but I'm freezing cold and the fever that I already had isn't helping me at all. 6

"You assume correctly but he's been messing up from the start so there really isn't any excuse" I tell him. Colt then falls silent before he looks up at me with a smirk on his face. He's planning something. Over the past two months I've seen his mischievous side and it's not that pretty but it does work on people. He is a master at pranking someone and it's honestly pretty funny. "I've got an idea" He says to me as he stands up and offers me his hand to take.

"But, you're going to be the star" He says and I give him a confused look at I look up at his face. The smirk he gives me is one that I'm not sure that I do trust and the look in his eyes is enough to bring chills down my body or that could be from the cold. "How?" I ask him. He let's out a chuckle as I take his hand and he helps me stand up. "By sleeping with me of course" He answers and my eyes widen when those words have come out of his mouth.
