Make you mine

The next day…
Julian's pov
The amusement park was still the same as before and everything about that night flashed before my eyes once again.
Kyren and Tris were enjoying the rides whereas my feet were standing in front of a beautiful lake.
It was fun to be here at night.
Kyren booked the entire Amusement park for Tris and my baby was more than happy. After playing nonstop for two hours, he fell asleep in Kyren's arms.
“He had a lot of fun.” Words came out of his mouth as he stood next to me holding Tris in his arms.
“Thank you.” My lips muttered softly.
We both were watching the lake in silence…until he asked about Tris’ father.
“Why did you sleep with him?”
My gaze shifted to his face and he was already looking at me.
“Again?” My brows furrowed.
“What was so devastating that you had to sleep with a stranger?”
A breath slipped free of my lips.
“You broke my heart…so I slept with a stranger, that's what happened.” My words made up a lie.
His eyes darkened.
“This is a joke, right?”
“No, the truth.”
He grabbed my wrist and dragged me to a bench next to a huge tree. His hands gently put Tris down on the bench, and next thing, he pinned me against the tree.
“Brother!”
“Why did you do it?”
“You slept with a stranger because I rejected your feelings? Were you really out of your mind?”
“Let's not talk about it.” My eyes turned to the left side.
His fingers gently cupped my cheeks, and I turned my face back to him. Kyren Maddox was no longer holding back his touch.
“I will find him and make him pay for what he did to you!” Words came out of his mouth in rage.
“Don't bother yourself.”
“I have moved on and I'm going on a blind date tomorrow.” My soft tone informed him of the news.
“Blind date?” His brows twitched.
My head nodded.
“We will see about that.” The corner of his mouth curved mischievously.
My hands pushed him back.
“Stop worrying about my things and focus on your girlfriend, brother.” My lips uttered the harsh truth.
He broke my heart for her, after all.
“I don't have a girlfriend.”
My eyes widened slightly.
“You broke up with her?”
He sighed.
“I never had a girlfriend.”
My heart shattered into a million pieces one more time. His words just shook my soul from inside and everything felt like a repeated episode of agony.
“You hated me so much that you had to lie about your girlfriend?” Tears filled my eyes even after four years.
“That's not why!”
“It was just to end your infatuation.”
The hidden truth was…
I was still in love with Kyren Maddox and I would never love another man in my life except him.
But…
He was the same man who ruined my soul and crushed my heart. I refused to go through it again. My feelings would never succeed to play another trick on me and Kyren will never be part of my life like he was four years ago.
“Let's go back home.” My soft tone mumbled, suppressing my cry.

He was driving, whereas Tris was sleeping on the backseat and I was perched on the seat next to him.
My head rested on the glass window.
All of a sudden, he stopped the car in the middle of an empty road.
“This won't do!”
His fingers slicked back his red hair.
“What happened?” I was shocked.
He looked into my eyes and came closer.
“Curse me all you want but don't go on that blind date, please.”
“Are you still worried about that?”
“My intention was never to hurt you…you were seventeen, my best friend's sister, and confused.”
“I did what a brother should do.”
“Even now, don't go on a blind date.”
“Have you already forgotten about Ethan Scott? He was your blind date!”
“Not all men are the same.”
My lips answered.
“So you will go?”
His tone changed to cold.
“Yes!”
“Okay, go then.”
He gave up sooner than expected.
One thing was for sure…
Our Amusement park memories always ended up being worse.

Meanwhile…
Amber's pov
We took a walk by the beach, holding hands, and it felt good after a long time.
Rhett and I have been friends since childhood and our families decided to turn our friendship into something more.
Even though it was a business deal for Rhett, he was my first love. Just the thought of him with me was enough.
A smile glinted on my lips.
“Were you busy the last few days?”
“Hmm”
“Uh…okay.”
“What do you think about the wedding venue?” My heart was anxious as the words rolled down my tongue.
He pulled out his palm from mine.
“Whatever you like.”
Rhett never showed his interest in me but he wouldn't break our engagement either because of his dad.
His older brother refused to inherit
Green enterprises and moved to Virginia with the woman he loved. Rhett's dad was against their marriage and was devastated when he found out that his son abandoned him for a woman. He fell sick in bed and recovered months later.
Everything fell upon Rhett's shoulders and he would never do anything to disappoint his dad.
“You’re coming with me to select the venue?”
“I am busy!”
“Ahm…okay.”
My lips sucked in a deep breath.
“Rhett”
“Hmm?” His eyes looked into mine.
“If you want to call off our engagement, then do it.” The courage was hard-earned, not easy for a fool like me.
“Are you crazy?” Rage replenished his ocean-blue eyes.
“This deal is important for my dad and you want me to call off this engagement?”
“Am I nothing more than a deal?” Tears rolled down my eyes.
*Sigh
“Don't make it difficult, Amber.”
“You already knew what you were stepping into when you said yes to our engagement.”
His fingers rubbed his forehead in stress.
“We'll get a divorce after one year, okay?”
My chest tightened.
“Is there another woman?”
His face was stiff, hard to read.
“Let’s go home.” He didn't answer my question in the end.

Kyren's pov
She fell asleep in the car and I rested my head on the steering wheel…just to admire every inch of hers.
My fingers slowly reached her palm and entangled with her fingers. Her palm was pretty small compared to mine.
A smile glinted on my lips.
“I am losing my mind, little one!”
My eyes refused to see her as my sister anymore.
When?
The day she came to the police station and took my side in front of the cop. She was confident that I wouldn't hit Ethan without a reason.
My little one even explained the details of that night when Ethan tried to force himself upon her, just for my sake. It wasn't easy and a few questions asked by the female cop were embarrassing.
She handled everything.
And later, her fingers applied ointment on my knuckles instead of showing rage. She was only worried for me.
That day she was a grown woman.
“Noah might kill me for this…but let's not worry about him for now.”
My fingers clenched hers tightly.
“It would be difficult to win you back after what happened four years ago, but I will do everything possible or impossible to make you mine, little one.”
“You can't date anyone, but me.”
