Hi yall, just uploaded chapter 21 of my story, it's a twist on the enemies to lovers trope, below is a snippet along with a link for the recent chapter, so if your interested I would love for you to give it a read!
Snippet:
âIâll be going now,â I state aloofly, noticing in my brush past him itâs no longer as bright outside.
âWell, wait a moment, Avalor,â he says, catching up with my pace. âIâve just returned from my drills,â he continues, with an outstretched palm, âPerhaps we could go on a date?â
âA date you say?â I ask presumptuously, feigning wonder at the idea, âHow very tempting - but no.â
âWe could at least go for a walk together?â he suggests, âThe weather has slightly cooled from the sudden overcast.â
âWeâre already walking,â I counter, with my hands crossed over my dress.
âOf course,â he flinches, side stepping to face me in my stride, âPerhaps we sit down for lunch?â
âNot hungry.â
âA dance, then?â
âNot interested.â He puts a brief hold on his attempts to court me, as though itâs only just occurred to him I am no longer in obligation to tiptoe around him, anymore.
