Victoria's POV
I tried to control the loud beating of my heart as I sat beside Owen in Oliver's car. I know it would be a long ride going to our place. I miss the place where I grew up, but I miss Oliver the most. Yet, I couldn't deny that I feel comforted by Owen's presence.
I was pretending to be asleep after we left the vacation home of my mate. I was leaning on the window of the car, controlling the loud pounding of my heart against my chest. I don't know if I can't control it anymore. It seems like I am running miles for hours.
I didn't want to open my eyes because I couldn't stop gaping at the man beside me. He looks so calm and peaceful, while I have a dilemma about behaving myself. This is not the first time that we have been together, yet knowing that Oliver is no longer alive gives me hope that Owen and I could be together, but the guilt I felt inside my heart is eating me up.
