《TL TD》Conflicted

Aliyah's POV
"Hope everything is alright" he said eyeing Carson suspiciously. His dogs were growling uncontrollably at Carson
"Easy boys Easy boys"
"Yeah everything is fine, why don't you keep walking and mind you business" Carson spat rudely
I know what you're thinking. That Joe is this Fat old dude that keeps to himself and his dogs.
But that's quite the opposite.
He stared at me for longer and shaked his head
"I think not boy"
He said with his deep voice
He was really muscular, but not in a scary way.
"From the looks of things, she clearly doesn't want you around, so I think you should get walking boy" he finished calmly
Carson laughed
"Who the fuck do you think you are? She's my girlfriend so I have the right to be here" he barked
I scoffed
"I'm not your girlfriend Carson, and I have where I need to be so yeah, you need to get going" I said pulling his hand away from my car door.
He tried to stop me but in one swift move, using just one hand, Joe grabbed Carson's hand twisting it immediately.
He pulled him back
"I think we need to have a talk he said roughly"
"Ali you can get going now, I'll deal with this punk"
I nodded
"Thanks Joe" I said quickly getting into the car.
Carson is such a Jerk and a maniac. That doesn't matter to me right now. Being around Ava is all that matters. I want to be there for her every time, whenever she needs me.
When I got to Ava's house Mrs Davis was already setting up for Dinner. I excused myself and went up to check on Ava
She was still sound asleep. I guess she really meant it when she said today was going to be lights out.

I wasn't feeling hungry so I got comfortable on the bed picking up a novel laying on Ava's table
Few minutes into my reading I heard a light knock on the door, then Ben came in.
"Hey" he said grabbing a chair beside me
"Hey" I replied settling the book down
"What are you reading" he asked studying the cover of the book. He chuckled
"She always love reading that" he said gesturing to the book
"It's actually quite interesting" I laughed a little.
He smiled watching his sister sleep peacefully. They always act like they don't care about each other. But I can see how much he cares about her and how much she looks up to him. I may be be wrong
"Can I ask you something?"
"I hope you don't get mad" I asked
he laughed
"It depends on what you're asking"
I thought about it and swallowed hard. I hope I'm not out of place by this
"Why are you always so mean and closed off to Ava. I know it's not my place to ask but, I can't help it"
His gaze fell to the floor
"I mean" I continued
"the other day you stood up for her with Carson. To be honest I was surprised. What changed?"
He looked up, but never looking at me.
He passed his hands through his hair.
He looked conflicted. He played with his hands for a while. And then he finally spoke
"I don't know" he sounded weak and defeated.
Thanks for reading guys 😘
Much love♥️♥️

The Emperor's Concubine
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] The heroine is good and the villainess is evil. That was the absolute truth. That rule was undeniable as well as the fact that only the heroine would receive true love and her happy ending. Likewise, the malicious villainess would always suffer and leave the stage to clear the path for the perfect heroine in the end. So, for Blanche it felt like her world came crashing around her when she remembered the truth about her life. As the villainess in the typical romance novel “To Be Empress” she was fated to be condemned and abandoned by her lover. No matter how devoted she was to Theodore Estien, the emperor of Artias, she would only be the bratty concubine that would obstruct the heroine, who happened to be Theodore's lawful wife and the empress. In the end, the villainess would be deserted and executed. It was destined to happen like this, and yet she couldn't give up. She had to change the future. Preventing the romance between the main characters would get her killed. Much like trying to steer away from the enemies' intrigues, in which she was already caught up, would. But neither the heroine nor the emperor's political rivals would change the fact that Blanche loved the man that was supposed to be the heroine's. And no matter what happened she would always stay by her lover's side. So she wouldn't just follow the book's storyline and let her own doom arrive. Blanche would survive while trying to suppress all of the selfish desires that had made her the villainess. But was she truly fine with that? Did she not desire more than just surviving? Did she even have the right? Could the villainess ask for a happy end? Was she too brazen if she just wanted to stay with the man she loved and receive his affection? And wasn't there a bit more to this novel than she remembered? She didn't know and in the end that mattered little when the world around her changed with each day as more and more questions about the future and the past arose. "The Emperor's Concubine" will be updated thrice a week (usually on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays) *The Profanity tag was added due to the characters' occasional swearing, which should not happen too often.

"When you figure out what you want, then come talk to me. Until then...get out of my face. I will speak to you in the morning." She said angrily and slammed her bedroom door in my face. I threw my body onto the hallway floor as tears streamed down my face. Screaming and crying as I pound on the door. "Johanna I'm sorry! Please I'm so sorry please don't go!" I slammed the door in Katie's face and sat on the floor as I listened to her scream and cry. Tears ran down my face and I banged my head against the door as I listened to my baby scream for me.
