Her Undeniable Temptation

“Where have you been, you got me worried,” Zoe said as she hugged him very tight, I mean more than she has ever done but he did something shocking, and he pulled away.

“We have to talk, Zoe,” he said, making Zoe anxious. Zoe wondered if what she feared the most had happened. She marveled at if he had gotten tired of her. “All ears, you can tell me anything and I am willing to listen,” she said, trying to hold his hand tightly.

“You remember I told you that I was going for the after-party?” he said with a sad grin plastered on his face. Zoe hated the fact that he was moody and she wished she could make him smile.

“Yes, well?” Zoe asked in much curiosity. “Well, I got drunk and I had a one-night stand with some total stranger! A human girl and I regret it,” he said bowing his head in shame.

To be honest, Zoe didn’t know how to react but she just had to let it go if she truly loved him. She could see how sorry he was and she just couldn’t let him feel worse even if it was hurting her badly. “It’s fine teddy bear, I get that it is a mistake,” Zoe said, trying to get him to hug her, which he eventually did.

“I’m so sorry and I feel like the worst person on earth right now?” he said, gripping her tightly. “You don’t have to feel that way, I understand that it was a mistake,” she said, hugging him more tightly and rubbing his back gently.

They stayed in that position for some minutes before they talked about everything together. Zoe couldn’t be that hard on him, after all, it could happen to her and she knew Alex would be as understanding as she was if that ever happened.

After that period they got even closer and they told each other everything and virtually explored New York together. Most of the period when Zoe was not studying or talking to Alex! She was on the phone with her parents or doing girls’ night with her friends.

Days have moved so fast and they were in their final year at the University. Today was a big day for Zoe but it got all ruined when a girl with a baby knocked on her room door asking her to leave Alex alone since they had a child together.

Zoe was mad and furious to an extent that her claws were about to rip this human nicompu in her front but she couldn’t let this spoil her big day. Dora had urged that she speak to Alex before the girl with his child got the better head but Zoe disputed.

‘Zoe calm down, he will tell you if it is true.’ Throughout the graduation, she was so absent-minded and Alex acted like everything was fine which she hated. After the ceremony was over. She couldn’t find him, after searching for a while she saw him talking to that lady who had come to her room in the morning.

How did she even find her room? Maybe he must have given it to her, Zoe felt her heart shatter into pieces! She thought they kept no secret again? Zoe decided to walk up to them.

“What’s going on teddy bear?” She asked fearing for what his reply might be. “I will handle this, you don’t have to worry,” he said, making her very bitter already. “I shouldn’t worry that you are a father already? When do you plan to tell me? I thought we kept no more secrets but shared them? Are you going to tell me when you both get married behind my back?” Zoe was so angry that she didn’t know when the tears began to flow freely.

She knew that he had a one-night stand but not that it resulted in a freaking baby.

“I hate you so f*****g much, Alex,” Zoe said as she ran off. She could hear him call her name as he tried to explain things clearly but she ignored him and walked into the street without looking as a car hit her hard.

She could feel her whole body go numb and Zoe hoped she wouldn’t wake up again, she just couldn’t leave without Alex in her life. Not after all they had been through and all the things they had planned together.

A tear dropped down her cheeks before her vision blurred.

ALEX POV

Nelly had knocked on my door on a Sunday to tell me we had a child together from that one-night stand from the fresher’s after-party, I felt my brain shut down after she had told me.

I had agreed to do a DNA test and if the result comes out positive I can share it with Zoe. I was still going to tell her even if it was negative, Today was our graduation and I caught her staring at me multiple times.

I got a text from the doctor who took the DNA showing it was negative, I felt a sigh of relief flush over me.

I had texted Nelly to see me immediately to get things sorted out that she got the wrong idea about me being the father of her child but Zoe came over and everything got busted.

I tried to explain but she wasn’t looking as a speeding car hit her hard, I couldn’t believe what had happened. This was all my fault, what am I supposed to do?

“Goddess, please don’t let her die,” I muttered in tears.
