Liv's Pov...

I entered into my room and without giving anyone a chance to come in with me, I slammed the door shut.

I leaned my back against the door and slowly slipped to the floor with my knees propped up to my chest.

I was tired of everything and I needed an alone time to myself. Whatever I saw would take a while for it's prints to leave my head.

What if Callum had killed Frank? the outcome wasn't going to end like that because the dark sky pack wouldn't have shown mercy either.

I was aware Callum loved me a whole lot but I'd appreciate it more if he could try to control his temper whenever he was with Frank, because I knew whenever he sets his eyes on Frank he unleashes his anger on him without even thinking twice. I wasn't if he thought twice about it.

I wanted to be alone with no one's intrudance because I knew one of them was surely going to come in to check up on me.

I heared a knock on the door, just as I had predicted but I didn't know who exactly was knocking.

To be on the safer side I decided not to open up the door. I couldn't possibly look at anyone in the eye and tell him to get out of my room.

"Who is there?

"It's Ryder. Liv please open up the door, I need to see you and know how you're doing" Ryder voiced out and I could feel the sincerity in his voice but I wasn't going to give in, at least not yet when I hadn't been able to figure out myself.

"Ryder please leave. I'm alright. No need for you to get worried, I just want to be left alone" I let out with a low voice as his knocking stopped.

"Alright I'll wait for you. Once you feel okay please come to me" Ryder pleaded and I didn't hear his voice or breath for some minutes.

I stood up from the floor and opened the door slowly as I peeked through the tiny hole but I didn't see him or anyone.

I closed the door and heaved a sigh of relief. I picked up my phone and tapped on Frank's contact.

At first I felt hesistant to text him but deep down inside of me, I knew I had to do it so I could know how he felt. If he was alright or not.

[Are you okay? Frank I'm truly sorry for whatever happened. If you can, please find it in your heart to forgive me].

I typed the message and clicked on the send button. After I was done sending the message, I realized I apologized to him but I didn't know what I was sorry about.

Was it not being able to stop Callum? Or not being able to reciprocate his love?

I paced back and forth, my heart beating in anxiety as I waited for him to reply to my message because I knew he would surely see it.

I heared a loud beep and I looked at the screen of my phone but it wasn't a message from Frank.

I unlocked my phone to see if I was probably mistaken but I wasn't. I was surprised at what I saw, Frank had read my message but he didn't send me a reply.

I plopped my ass onto my bed and I rubbed my hand over my face. Why was Frank doing this to me? I thought I could text him to get myself relieved but his silence just added to my immense pain.

I thought about giving Frank some space and I would check up on him later in the day but I also had to go to Callum. He really needed me with him at that moment, it was my obligation go him and I had to fulfill it.

I opened the door and walked out of my room as I reached Callum's room. I stood in front of his room, leaning my body on the side of the door.

He gazed up at me and that was when I noticed his bleeding nose and bloody knuckles.

I stepped closer to him, using my leg to spread his thighs apart and I kneeled down in the middle.

"Why did you do this to yourself? why didn't you just turn a blind eye to Frank? now you're hurt and it hurts me more to see you in this condition" I said in a low voice. I grabbed the napkin that was beside him and dabbed on his injury.

I was surprised he let his injury stay on for long when we both knew he can always and instantly heal himself but he chose not to.

"I can't just turn a blind eye Liv. I hate the sight of that man" Callum declared with disgust.

"Your mother hates the sight of me so how would you feel if if she picked up a fight with me everytime she sets her eyes on me?" I asked.

"You can't compare her to Frank" Callum stated.

"Let's not get into that matter otherwise it won't end well. So I need to know why you're so adamant to heal your injury?" I queried, hauling up to my feet and I opened his closet to grab a first aid box.

I returned back to my position, taking hold of his hand and I wrapped the bandage around his knuckles.

"It's nothing Liv. Don't stress yourself about it" he pronounced.

"You care enough for me that you don't want me to stress myself so you shouldn't punish yourself like this"

I stared into his eyes, bringing the cotton wool I held in my hand closer to his nose and I wiped the blood off.

Callum didn't say anything to me as silence erred in the room. He winced in pain and I blew air to soothe his pain.

I picked up the items and placed them into the first aid box, shifting it aside as I held his hands in mine.

"About what Frank said" I muttered. "You know what Callum? It's in the past so let's forget about it. Talking about it would only open up our old wounds" I said, trying to wave the conversation off because I knew what he ached to say.

I halted my body up, about to make my way out of Callum's room when he held my hand and tugged me closer to him.

I fell onto his thighs and he turned my face to look into his eyes, holding my waist tightly in a light squeeze.

"Do you love him?" Callum asked firmly, his intense gaze not leaving me.

I could feel the heat in my chest and the heaviness in my heart all at the same time. The question Callum threw at me was definitely one of the hardest questions of my life, I didn't have an answer to it.

I had an answer to give to myself. Deep down inside of my heart I knew I loved Frank but I just couldn't tell Callum that, it would mean adding fire to the unquenchable fuel.

"No, I love you, Callum" I proffesed.

"That's the same thing for Ryder as well as Max. There is a possibility that if it is possible to love three men which is normal, you can also love him as well" Callum shot out and I was left speechless.

He proceeded to stand up and I stood up from his thighs, watching him walk up to the window.

"Callum" I managed to call out.

"Liv I don't have any other option but to accept Frank's words. I'm really not good enough for you"

"Please don't say that to me. Even if I do love Frank, I wouldn't act on it because I have a mate and I'm already marked" I let out as silence overwhelmed us.

Callum's fingers traced my neck and I felt the warmth on his breath on my neck as I jerked back.

"Does it still hurt?" He asked and I shook my head even though it hurt a bit. I just didn't want to add to the problems he had at hand.

I licked my lower lip and Callum cupped my face as he leaned towards me and brushed his lips against mine.

He sucked on my lips, pushing his tongue into my mouth as I opened up my mouth fully allowing him to taste every inch of me but my mind wasn't having any of it.

Even while Callum Kissed me, I couldn't stop thinking about Frank
