Chapter 22 Chapter 22 The story that was never there perhaps it was all in my head- There is no Dante and Lola going forward as there was never Dante and Lola even before .
I will miss him .
Dante was just a natural .
I loved everything about him .
It was so easy to talk to him ; he was a great listener , and he laughed at my silly jokes .
I have never once looked at any other man the way I looked at Dante .
His smile , his laughter I swear the world stopped revolving when that man genuinely laughed .
His smiles were something that kept me going each time I searched for something that could make me smile .
Dante was amazing , and I loved just how easy it was to talk to him .
He always had the answers to every one of my questions .
I know I was sometimes annoying , but he laughed at every little silly thing I did .
Now , I gave up my happiness in order to make him happy with the one he truly loved .
I am just an altruist .
I will no longer see that amazingly handsome face .

I do not blame him ; I had enough chances .
The time I knew I had lost him for good was when he told me he was going out with Candice .
I gave up on him looking at me as a woman a long time ago .
But I never thought that he would date anyone I knew .
I vividly remember that day .
It was his birthday , and right when I was about to tell him how I felt about him , Candice showed up and kissed him in front of me , and he told me they were going out .
He told me he was happy with her ; she made him feel things , and he wanted to be with her .
Candice is the type of girl who goes for what she wants .
She told me she liked him , and she went for him , and she got him .
Well , I am the opposite .
I thought that the stupid promise we made to each other when we were young meant something to him , as it did for me .
I waited for him to tell me it was time for us to be together .
I didnt even get to ask how long they had been seeing each other .
I just stared at the two of them simultaneously while forcing a smile onto my face .
Deep inside , I died that day .
I knew I had lost him , but what did I do ? I couldnt resist him when I saw him naked , even though I knew that there would never be Dante and Lola .
We were done that day .
He told me he wanted to be with Candice .
I told myself I was over whatever I felt for him .
I even lied that I was happy for them while forcing a smile .
I even learned to live with the fact that they were a couple , even though they would cheat on each other .
I was there to listen to all of them .
I forgot to mention that the day Dante told me he was going out with Candice was the day I learned how to drink alcohol .
I freaking waited for him , but he forgot everything about us when he saw a more mature girl around him .
I have to pretend when Im with the two of them ; I laugh at every joke they make like an idiot .
When they kissed in front of me , thats when I felt my already broken heart drop to my core .
Then he said something that made me wonder if he ever meant that he would be my Prince Charming .
Lola , you are of age now , and I wont kill anyone if you start dating .
But I will kill anyone who breaks your heart .
How do I even tell him that he was the one who broke my heart , my trust , and the promise we made to each other back then ? It took me time to process everything .
I even didnt go home for a whole week , and when I came back , I lied to him and told him I was at my boyfriends .
He didnt care , and that was when I knew I had to stop my madness and look at him as a friend , and so I did .
But why did he initiate sex that day ? I was his replacement for everything his replacement bride , his replacement girlfriend .
What was I doing that night , and why did he touch me and break my heart the next day ? Ever since that night , my world has come crashing down .
I accepted him and Candice .
Now , after our wedding night , all I could do was act cool while dying on the inside .
If Candice made him feel things , then why did he touch me ? I couldnt face any of them and act as if nothing happened between Dante and me .
Masking my feelings for him was an art I mastered , but pretending the steamy 07-16 Fingerprints of Betrayal Chapter 22 night didnt happen was something I failed to do .
So I did the unthinkable , like a stupid , needy prostitute .
I went and delivered myself to his room and fucked him one last fuck before I said goodbye .
One last kiss , one last bed share , one last touch , one last glance at the man who watched me grow and never looked at me as a woman , a man who broke my heart after taking my innocence .
A man who told me we couldnt be together still didnt have the guts to say no to that one last night .
