Life After Divorce: The Rise Of Elijah Crawford Chapter 163
Their lips moved slowly, loving, tasting, seeking, devouring each other, learning every line and curve, exchanging breaths. And when they reached a discovery, Elijah slowly pulled out.“We should stop now,” he said, slightly out of breath.“I don't want to.” She shook her head.“You went through something terrible. Don't you want to talk about it?” He asked, gently stroking her cheeks.“I have forever to speak about it, but when will we ever have this opportunity again?”He sighed, “Winnie—”“You know it's the truth. Anything can happen tomorrow. He'll, anything can happen in the next two hours. You might decide you don't want to be seen close to me or that hiding your secrets is more important than solidifying friendships. I don't know.”Something in the way she said ‘secrets’ caught his attention. He found himself drawing away from her into a sitting position.“Right.” She threw her hands into the air, frustration etched on her face.“Winnie, things aren't black and white. I don't w

A buzzing sound woke him up the following day. Even in his sleep, he could recognize the sound. He opened his eyes and found Winnie pressed against his naked body.Careful not to wake her up, he hurried her to the side and rolled out of bed. As he stepped down, he saw their clothes scattered all over the ground. Crouching, he picked up his pants and pulled out his phone from its back pocket before dragging it up his waist.He tiptoed out of the room down to the living room before answering.“Good morning, sunshine. How'd it go?” “Cleo?” His brow snapped together at how chirpy her voice sounded.“Your one and only,” she laughed.“Why do you sound so happy?” He asked as if it was a crime for her to be happy.“When you're on the road, driving way beyond the speed limit, it tends to get you pumped up,” she explained.“And why are you on the road this early?”“Okay, Mr journalist, slow down!” He didn't need to see her to know she had rolled her eyes hard. The thought made him chuckle. “

A couple of excuses ran through his head, but before he could settle on one, his lip started to move. “He said what?” “Exactly what I said. I didn't believe him at first, still really don't, but he did some bizarre and questionable things,” she sighed.“Like what?” He asked, hoping to keep her talking long enough to get out.“He read my mind. He could tell what I was thinking just by looking at me. Also, when I opened my eyes, I was bound. I told him to prove he was real, and the bound came off,” she paused when he kept looking at her with expressionless eyes. “What?”“It's just hard to believe. Are you sure you didn't imagine things? Judging the circumstance, it could be some psychological trickery,” he said. He hated how he had to resort to manipulation, but he couldn't just tell her the truth. There were too many risks involved.Most significantly, the risk of having her hate him. For that alone, he would instead remain a secret forever.“I don't know. I mean, are you sure? I don'

“Do you know him?” He asked, tailing behind him.“Doesn't matter. Not important. We have to wake Tobias first!” He declared, dropping to his knees in front of him.He switched his position, laying on his back, and placed his head on his chest. When he didn't get the results he sought, he searched for a pulse in his hand.“Is he going to be fine?” Snow panicked behind him.“He should be.” Elijah rose slightly and carried Tobias into his arms.“Wow, you're powerful,” Snow said as Tobias was transported to his room.He placed him on the bed and moved out to open all the windows.“I don't know what that bastard did to him, but we must create as much natural air and light as possible.”“Why?” He asked, observing Elijah as he paced from one part of the room to the other.“Cus nature heals, Snow. It heals.” He paused at the center of the room, a thought forming in his head.“I think there's a way I can hasten his consciousness.”“How?”“It's highly unconventional, but my dad discussed it a l

As he opened his mouth to speak, the door blasted open and fell off its hinges. The frame flew across the room, landing on the glass windows, and shattered.“Not again!” Elijah whined.The sound of huge boots greeted their ears as they waited for the latest guest to intrude.“I told you you'd pay!” A voice said. Before they could see who it was, he flung Elijah across the wall.He twirled, and turned to Asher who had taken a fighting stance. “Ivan!” He called with disgust when he saw it was the god.“Asher!” He returned. His hand closed into a fist, as he lunged after him.Asher bends, and his hands fly across his head. He stumbled forward, and Asher used the opportunity to pick him from the ground up.“Did you add more weight?” He goofed, throwing him down. He landed on the center table made of glass, and it shattered all over his body.He broke into a feat of laughter, as he turned to Snow who had sneaked behind him to hide. “Did you see that?” He asked between laughter.Elijah slo

“Well, I thought he was sensible enough to be reasoned with. I had no idea he would go ahead and do whatever he liked,” he explained.“That's actually on you. You should have known I don't take orders from anyone,” he boasted.“You let comments like that slide, but come at me when I talk smack. Tell me why? What does he have on you? Your nudes?” Asher sneaked into the conversation, finding a way to make it about himself.“Be silent, Asher!”“See! You just proved my point! Tell me, you see it, Elijah?” He turned to his enemy for help.“I don't care who has what on anyone. I want everyone out of my house. Oh, and everyone would have to pay for the damages to my house, of course,” he snickered, genuinely irritated by the mess. “Like I'll pay for shit!” Ivan countered.“You know you're slowly getting on my nerves with your arrogance. You don't want to make an enemy out of me.” Elijah warned in a deadly voice, and all pairs of eyes suddenly rested on him.Their eyes bulged in surprise. He

“Hey, bro,” Elijah called as he entered Tobias' room.Tobias, who had just woken up after over twelve hours of unconsciousness, sat with his butt at the edge of the bed and his leg on the ground. His head resting on his palm, projected when he heard Elijah's voice.“Hey,” he said.Elijah moved to his dressing table, leaning against it. “How do you feel?” He asked.“Like shit,” he laughed dryly, causing Elijah to let out a weak smile.“At least you're alive.” He tried a joke that Tobias took in good faith.Smiling at him, he rose to his feet. “Needed a little time before I check if my leg is still functional. Laying in bed for that long is crazy,” he said, walking towards the door.“Where are you going?” Elijah hurried after him, his face twisted in panic.“The living room. Why?” He turned his head around as his brow lifted in curiosity.“Nothing. I think you should take a bath first before coming out to eat something.”It was a lie. He didn't want him to see the chaos downstairs unti

The moment he stepped foot into the house, he found Tobias standing in the middle of the mess, a horrified look in his eyes.“What the hell happened here!” He asked the second he raised his head and saw Elijah come through.“Uhmm, actually,” he scratched his head, not expecting Tobias to be out so soon.“Looks like someone has a lot of explanations to do.” Snow taunted in a singsong voice.“Shut up, Snow!”“Don't tell me to shut up. Tell the truth!”Tobias' head went from Elijah to Snow and back to Elijah.“Are you two arguing right now?” He asked, his face ridden with confusion.“No!”“Yes!”They both spoke at the same time.He couldn't hear Snow, but he could bet his life he answered with the opposite of Elijah's answer. It pretty much responded to his question. They were arguing, and it was about why Elijah's living room was missing a door again, a window, and a center table.“I know the man who attacked Snow, and I did a lot last night. But it's not to this extent. What happened h
