Chapter 24

Ava’s POV

As we landed, I was stunned to see the familiar beachy sand. We were at the location where I asked Damien to become my boyfriend. The memories quickly flooded me of the fun and kisses we had shared here.

I could not imagine the pain Damien was feeling, forcing himself to be here instead, I spotted him sitting by the exact spot while staring at the sea. With bottles of alcohol all around him. He looked rugged and stressed. I really had destroyed his spirit.

I started walking over there slowly with my head hung low in shame.

As I reached him, he seemed to not have noticed that I had arrived or was here. Lost in his own thoughts.

“Aleksander, go away, I want you and father to leave me alone in peace,” he instead shouted after a twig snapped as I stepped on it, gaining his attention.

“I... I…” I could only stutter not knowing where to start.

And as soon as he heard my voice, he quickly turned to stare at me with wide eyes.

He looked shocked and stunned to see me standing there.

“Ava, is it really you, or am I just imagining things again,” he spoke standing up with a desperate look in his eyes and walking over to me.

“It's me...” I replied as his hand gently traced my cheek.

“Please, believe me, I never cheated on you. Why would I do that when you are the only one I love with my whole heart. Please,” As he spoke tears started flowing down my eyes at the pain I could see in his eyes. I really did not deserve him.

“Damien, I should be the one asking you for forgiveness. I'm sorry for not trusting you. Letting my trust issues get in the way and blind me. I should have not rushed but stayed to listen to your side of the story too. Please give me another chance.” The words started rushing out of my mouth as I apologized begging him to forgive me.

He did not let me say more as he quickly pulled me into his arms and gave me a deep and passionate kiss. I could feel my whole body come alive ignited by his touch.

“I missed you and I love you, Ava, Forever and always,” he then said as we stopped kissing to breathe. Now only delight, forgiveness, and joy shining in his eyes.

“So, marry me, for I want you to be mine forever in every way.”

“And I cannot wait to spend my whole life with you and our child,” he added, laying his hand on to my stomach too.

“Yes,” I eagerly replied, and we were back to kissing again as he swept me off my feet. We had some makeup sex to go do.

THE END
