The Girl He Craves

Sophie’s pov

I woke up with the sound of knuckles hitting my door roughly and my name being yelled.

“Soph. Wake up!” Mila yelled knocking on the door again.

Ashton’s little body stirs and my eyes peel open reluctantly.

Did I oversleep?

“Soph wake up.

They’re towing your car!” Mila yells louder.

L1 My heart skips and I quickly shot up from the bed.

Ashton stirs and rolls around until he wakes up completely.

I rushed to the door, unlocking it and swinging it open quickly.

“What?!” I breathed out in a hast.

Why would they tow my car? Mila’s eyes are wide.

“They’re towing your car.

Ria’s trying to stop them but they won’t listen.” I looked back at a still sleepy Ash and then peeked at

the small clock on my nightstand It’s six a.m! I look back at Mila.

“Keep an eye on him, I’ll be back.” She nods, stepping into the room as I rushed out.

When I’m in the living room, I run towards the window.

My hair is messy around me, and swings over my face when I opened the window

From here I can see my car as clear as day.

And Mila was right, there stood Ria in nothing but her nightgown and flapping her hands wildly as she

argued with the men currently towing my car.

“Hey!” I screamed loudly for everyone to hear me.

All heads whip up to face me.

“What the hell are you doing to my car?!” I snapped, my hair whipping around me wildly

“Someone called us to bring it to the wrecking yard.” One of the men yelled back and motioned to the

other to continue.

“Wrecking yard!?” I yelled in disbelief.

Who the hell would call these people to get rid of my Mary……

My eyes narrowed on a familiar black SUV pulling up beside the tow truck.

Is that Aid The door opens at the back and Aiden gets out.

He brushes a hand through his hair and closes the door before walking up to one of the men.

What the hell!? I moved away from the window, breathing hastily as I grew angry.

Was this Aiden’s doing?

Of course it was.

He was the only one to stoop as low as this to get even with me.

Mila comes jogging from the room with Ashton in her arms.

“Did they stop?” She asked quickly, looking worried.

I shook my head, my hands fisting at my sides.

“I’m going to kill him.” I gritted through my teeth.

Mila’s brows knot in confusion.

“Who’s him? Who are we killing?” I looked at Ashton and then back at her before replying.

“Aiden.

I’m going to rip him a new one for thinking he can just get rid of my car as he pleases.”

Mila’s brows raised in shock.

“He’s the one…”

I nodded.

“I’ll be back,” I said quickly and scurried out of the room and down the hall.

I’ve never skipped so many stairs as quickly as I am now.

I’m actually breaking records.

By the time I’m almost at the end of the stairs, I am out of breath.

But I don’t care that my lungs aren’t getting enough air.

My main focus is getting out before they go with my car.

I opened the door quickly, the cool moming air kissing my face and waking me up even more if the

news of my car getting towed didn’t do the trick.

Aiden’s talking to the men, motioning him to do God knows what.

Ria is snapping at the other, glaring at the tow truck.

“Hey!” I yelled, walking up to Aiden and the man.

“What the hell do you think you’re doing to my car?” I snapped, fuming while glaring into his blue eyes.

They’re not that stormy this early but when he senses my anger, the storm starts to brew.

“I’ll not have you driving our son in that death trap.” He says curtly, turns around and ignores me while

telling the man he’d want my car crushed.

Anger makes my head foggy as I cursed.

“Aiden what the fuck do you think you’re doing? You can’t just come here and get rid of my car.

You have no right, it’s my car!” He ignores me and I grow even angrier.

“You damn bastard.” I snarled, shouldering his arm because I wasn’t tall enough to shoulder him

properly as I step forward to talk to the man who seems in charge.

“This is my car, you can’t just tow it.” I seethed at the man who looks apologetic.

I gasped when Aiden’s fingers wrap around my arm and tug me away from the man and turns around

to face me.

His eyes drop to stare at my tank top.

“What the hell are you wearing Sophie!?” He barks.

I didn’t have a bra on because I don’t sleep with them when going to bed.

And not having the opportunity to do so because someone decided to have my car towed, my nipples

were now on full display thanks to the cool air.

I crossed my arms over my chest and glared at him.” What are you, my dad? If you weren’t having my

car towed so early in the morning maybe I’d have enough time to be more decent.” I snapped, pulling

away from him roughly.

He had some nerve.

Oh that storm in his eyes brewed.

“Get inside Sophie.” Aiden grits, jaw ticking I ignored him and focused on the man.

“I demand you leave my car or I’ll call the cops,” I warned.

The man shakes his head.

“Sorry ma’am but the reports showed that the car is in very bad shape and the breaks aren’t working

properly-”

“What damn reports! This is all this asshole’s doing!” I snapped pointing at Aiden.

Did he really think that now he had a say in anything concerning me?

“That death trap is in bad shape Sophie.

It’s old “Your main concern should be Ashton, not me and my car Aiden! I’ll get rid of the car on my

own.” I spat.

“What the hell do you think I’m doing here Sophie? I’m concerned about my son’s safety when you

drive that thing.

Tow the car Shawn.” He snarled and reached out for me.

Grabbing my arm, he tugs me away as Shawn told the other men to

continue.

L “Let go of me asshole.” I hissed, trying and failing to get my arm out of his grip

“I’m doing you a favor here Sophie.

That car needs to be dumped before it gets you into trouble.”

My eyes turn into slits at his face.

“Since when do you care if I get into trouble? Was it not yesterday you said you loathe? So why now

care about someone you loathe?” I snapped, trying to pull away from him.

But instead, he stops and tugs me to him.

I let out a rush of air when my front slams against his.

He holds me there, leaning down so our eyes would be leveled.

“And I had every right to say that for what you did to me!” He seethed lowly.

“And you did me worst!” I retorted, glaring into his eyes.

“What did I do to you that was worst than keeping someone’s son existence a secret from them

Sophie!?” Aiden growled, lifting his head and pinching the bridge of his nose with his free hand.

“You’re giving me a damn headache.” Sighing he drops his hand at his side but still keeps the other

locked around my arm.

“Look, if you pissed about the car be reassured I bought you a new one that

“I don’t need your charity.” I cut off, tugging out of his arm roughly when he least expected it.

“Why are so damn pissed about this!?” Aiden huffed.

“Many women would be happy at the thought of someone buying them a brand new car

“I’m clearly not like other women Aiden.

I don’t need you to buy me anything.

I’m not some charity case.” Aiden’s eyes turned into slits of rage.

“Sophie, my son will not be getting inside that death trap.

It’s either you accept the car or he’ll come with me.
