Day Twenty -Two: Tangled Desire
1085 Words
His eyes softened, his hand trembling. “You’re mine, Aria... and I can’t lose you.”
His voice broke, his pain raw, his love exposed.
I felt my heart shatter, my chest tightening. He was hurting... because of me.
I was hurting all of them... because I was too weak to make a choice.
I wanted to reach out... to hold him... to tell him I was his... that I loved him.
But if I did... I would be lying. Because my heart didn’t just belong to him.
It was torn... broken... shattered.
Because I loved his brothers, too.

Dear dairy, Axel’s Claim came Suddenly...
I should have known he would come to me.
I should have known he wouldn’t let me go.
He cornered me in the hallway, his body blocking my path, his eyes dark, dangerous.
Axel.
He grabbed my arm, his grip firm, his power radiating. “Running again?”
His voice was cold, his smile wicked.
I looked away, my chest tightening. “I wasn’t...”
He laughed, his fingers tightening. “Don’t lie. I can smell your fear.”
I shivered, his power suffocating, his presence overwhelming. “Let me go...”
His eyes darkened, his jaw tightening. “Why? So you can run to them?”
His words struck me, his jealousy raw, exposed. “I... I don’t...”
He pulled me closer, his body pressing against mine, his heat burning. “You’re mine. Not theirs. Mine.”
My heart raced, my body trembling. “Axel... please...”
He leaned in, his breath hot against my ear. “You can run all you want... but I’ll always find you.”
His voice was a promise... a threat... a vow.
I was his... whether I wanted to be or not.
His fingers brushed my cheek, his touch possessive, his eyes burning. “You can’t escape me, Aria. You never could.”
My breath caught, my heart aching. “Axel... I...”
He silenced me with his lips, his kiss rough, demanding.
He was claiming me... marking me... breaking me.
I was falling... drowning... losing myself in him.
Because no matter how cruel he was... no matter how dangerous... how broken...
I loved him....
I stumbled back to my room, my body trembling, my chest tight, my heart breaking.
They were tearing me apart... breaking me... destroying me.
I loved them... all of them.
But I couldn’t have them. Not all of them.
I had to make a choice. I had to break two hearts... just to keep mine whole.
But I didn’t know how.
I was weak... selfish... cruel.
Because no matter who I chose... I would destroy them.
But they wouldn’t stop fighting. They wouldn’t stop loving me.
And I was too weak to stop them.
I sank to the floor, my tears falling, my heart shattering.
I was breaking... falling apart... losing myself.
Because I loved them.
Dear dairy, and that was the cruelest truth of all....
I tried to stay away. I tried to put distance between us, to give myself space to think... to breathe.
But they wouldn’t let me.....
They were always there, surrounding me, suffocating me, tempting me.
Each one pulling me closer, breaking me apart, staking his claim.
I was trapped. Caught between them. Caught between my heart and my soul.
Then Aiden’s Promise came to me too..
He found me in the garden, his eyes soft, his smile warm.
He looked at me like I was his entire world, his light in the darkness.
He took my hand, his fingers gentle, his touch soothing.
His warmth wrapped around me, his power comforting.
“I missed you,” he whispered, his voice tender.
My chest tightened, my heart racing. “I... I needed space...”
His face fell, his eyes darkening. “Are we too much for you?”
His vulnerability broke me, his pain raw, exposed.
I shook my head, my tears falling. “No... I just... I don’t know what to do...”
He pulled me into his arms, his hold protective, his heart beating against mine.
“I don’t care what happens,” he whispered, his voice breaking. “I just want you by my side... always.”
His promise shattered me, his love suffocating.
He lifted my chin, his eyes burning. “I’ll fight for you, Aria. No matter what.”
He leaned down, his lips brushing mine, his kiss soft, sweet.
I melted into him, my body trembling, my heart aching.
Because his love was pure... beautiful... perfect. But I didn’t deserve it....

Dear dairy, I thought Asher’s Passion was just like him...kind and lovely.... But I was wrong this time around.....
I barely had time to catch my breath before I was in his arms, his mouth on mine, his hands roaming my body.
He was everywhere, consuming me, devouring me...
His passion was wild, untamed, his love fierce, intense.
He kissed me like he was starving, like he couldn’t get enough of me.
My body responded to his, my heart racing, my skin burning.
I was lost in him, drowning, falling.
He pulled me closer, his hands possessive, his power overwhelming. “You drive me insane, Aria.”
His voice was rough, his need raw, exposed.
I shivered, my body aching for him. “Asher...”
He silenced me with his mouth, his kiss deep, demanding.
I wrapped my arms around him, my fingers digging into his back, my heart breaking.
Because his love was fierce... passionate... consuming. But I couldn’t belong to him....

Then came the wild one.... Axel’s Obsession
He cornered me again, his eyes dark, his smile wicked.
He was cruel, dangerous, his presence suffocating.
He pulled me to him, his grip firm, his power radiating. “You thought you could run from me?”
His voice was cold, his anger simmering beneath the surface.
I looked away, my chest tightening. “I... I wasn’t...”
He laughed, his fingers tightening. “Liar.”
His face twisted, his jealousy raw, his obsession exposed. “You think I don’t see you with them? You think I don’t know how they look at you?”
His words cut deep, his pain sharp, his love twisted.
I flinched, his possessiveness suffocating. “Axel... I...”
He pulled me closer, his mouth crushing mine, his kiss rough, demanding.
I was powerless, helpless, lost in him.
He was breaking me... consuming me... destroying me. But I couldn’t let him go of him also.... Selfish! Right?....
