Verity

by Colleen Hoover

And that fucking creepy-ass, psychotic woman.

…shuuut up…

“You don’t even deserve the body you’re trapped in,” I whisper, staring straight into her eyes. “I hope you die with a throat full of your own vomit, the same way you attempted to kill your infant daughter.”

What in the actual fuck is wrong with you lowen? Like this is absolutely fucked up to do and I wished things ended horribly for you too but I know that many wishes don’t always come true, even if they would make the world a better place

“Jeremy is going to fuck me in your bed tonight.”

🤢 🤮

Angry at Verity.

You are fucking jealous bitch, don’t go lying to us AND yourself now. I’m may be an idiot but I’m not that stupid. Doesn’t matter if verity was truly a monster, she is still MARRIED to Jeremy so lowen needs to stop messing with this married man and vice versa for Jeremy

Verity’s shoes over the past two weeks. “Believe me, I have been.”

No the fuck you haven’t you asshole

“Take moments for yourself, Jeremy,” I say quietly. “Selfish moments. You deserve to live a life where you have moments that have nothing to do with her and everything to do with you and what you want.”

What the hell do you mean by that lowen? Is this your way of telling him to screw over his vows to verity by screwing you in their bed?

“You.” He pushes off the counter and marches toward me. He grips my waist with both hands and presses his forehead to mine, looking into my eyes with nothing but need. “I want you, Low.”

You are so predictable Hoover like this wouldn’t be so painful to read if I actually have a fuck about these bitches, they both suck so yeah maybe they belong together in that respect but oh wait Jeremy is still MARRIED so why would I ever encourage or root for this like it’s not hot at all?! If I gave a shit about either of them, this would be where I kick my little feet with glee but it’s not, they are both such trash Why would he need to march toward you if you were already in front of him, Hoover did you just fuck up this moment even more. At this point, I don’t even care 🙄

back of my neck.

He loves that neck

Verity isn’t ruining it for me this time.

I wonder why would his wife want to ruin this beautiful moment you are having with her husband? (Sarcasm)

trepidation.

I’m not searching this up so bleh (I lied, I did search it up)

I squeeze my eyes shut as he tries to fit his entire length inside me.

Oh wow so big, so hot, I’m dying…both of you are such losers 😒

“I’m going to take you in every position I’ve imagined us in.”

Cheater, bad, you get the bonk!

she always had to have some form of control over him.

Bruh so what? There’s nothing wrong with that, unfortunately we don’t get Jeremy’s side of things but as far as we knew, he didn’t seem to mind verity being in control and there’s nothing wrong with you wanting to let jeremy be in the position of control if both you and him want that so don’t be judging or comparing yourself like you are something better than verity because that’s a gross thing to do and I don’t want to hear it. If you wanna be a submissive sexual partner only then that’s fine, if you want to be more dominant than that’s also fine if your partner also wants that and you both have agreed to it, you could also be a switch and that’s great too. don’t make it sound like lowen is pointing it out as another reason of why their relationship turned sour or like it’s the womanly thing to do, such bullshit like I’m fuming at this shit. If it starts to cross the line of manipulation then that’s a problem and Verity does need help.

I relinquish all my control to him. I let him take me however he wants me.

This is not sexy or romantic, I’m bored and disgusted. ALSO this isn’t really that different from what Verity did, she wasn’t always in control and she did everything and anything this mediocre man desired. It’s like the flip of a coin, two different sides but it’s still the same damn coin…I hope I made sense whatever

His palms are sliding up my stomach, to my breasts.

I will say i like reading about a man enjoying the position of him eating out a lady and being good at it (at least I really hope this is the case) like I wish more men strived for this because this makes you even more attractive if you are down to eat it and you do that well, I say if you want some head then it’s only fair that you will eat your partner out and if you aren’t good yet then practice dude and listen to your partner like this is the hold grail guys. At least he isn’t the shitty type of person that refuses to do it because he thinks it’s disgusting or it’s something “men don’t need to do” or some other bullshit excuse…he is still mediocre though because of everything else

I can feel Verity’s teeth marks beneath mine. Different. Unaligned with my own. I bite harder into the wood as I come, determined to leave deeper marks than she ever did.

Bitch it’s not a contest, stop with all this, it’s pathetic and sad, but not in a like “I pity you” way because I don’t

Being with him in this way is everything I imagined it would be and, somehow, I feel okay being inside this house when I’m also wrapped in his arms.

I wish I could throw a heavy book at you because that’s a load of bullshit

“That just made me a little jealous,” he says.

Just eww

“I’ll answer your question, but I don’t want you to think bad of me.”

Don’t worry, I already hate you so continue proving me right. (But I still think Hosea from redeeming love is worse though fyi, he’s an absolutely manipulative monster)

but I stayed and I married her and we started our family because I always believed that deeper connection was within reach. I thought I’d wake up one day and look her in the eyes and then it would click, like that mythical puzzle piece had finally snapped into place.”

Bro Jeremy, you absolutely suck as a person like why would you do all this 🤦🏽‍♀️ this is all some serious bullshit, you cannot convince me that lowen was “the one” like this bitch is a terrible human being and so boring, she’s literally like a cardboard person. Again, you are still married to verity so you are a fucking cheater. Ugh, all of this is hurting my brain like please don’t tell me people find this man attractive because all he makes me wanna do is rip my hair out and punch the air in frustration. He is not worth some boring ass sex scenes

“In a random coffee shop bathroom with a woman who wasn’t my wife.”

I hate you all, I want to set my brain on fire

He shakes his head. He bends over, clasping his knees, out of breath. “They’re asleep.”

This bitch (referring to jeremy) knows something because why did he so easily believe your weird ass immediately, I’m getting sus vibes from him again…and always

After all, this is a house full of Chronics. The next tragedy is already long overdue.

Just shut the fuck up with all your attempts at being suspenseful and spooky like boo this is BORING ME, just stick to writing romance but hold the sexism and misogyny please. Also you know what, get a sensitivity reader’s opinion on your drafts before you publish books too because I feel that would make things so much better

“It’s a word that describes the smell of fresh rain after warm weather.”

Fun facts with Lowen

“Is there a word for what I’m doing?” “Probably. What are you referring to?” He traces my jaw with a finger. “This,” he says quietly. “Falling for a woman when I shouldn’t.”

YES, ITS CALLED FUCKING CHEATING YOU ASSHOLE

There’s not much justification for that.

Exactly!

“Yes.” He regards me silently for a moment. “But not guilty enough to stop.”

So gross

“But it will stop,” I say. “I need to go back to Manhattan. And you’re married.” His eyes seem to be protecting thoughts he doesn’t want to speak out loud. We’re both quiet as we stare at each other for a while. He eventually leans in to kiss me before saying, “I thought about what you said in the kitchen last night.”

Oh no, I hate this so much

Does he agree that the quality of his life is just as important as Verity’s?

Nah you are trying to convince him to throw his wife to the side and screw around with you, don’t try to bullshit me lowen. You believe you are so much better than Verity when you are exactly the same, except you had no fucking backbone to admit when you are bullshitting yourself, absolutely delusional

“I think that’s the best thing for all three of you.”

I hate everyone here except the little child, poor him

As if I see it happen in real time, the grief begins to evaporate. From him, from this house. The wind is blowing through the window, the house is quiet, Jeremy looks at peace. It’s in this moment I decide what to do about the manuscript.

Shut the fuck up, I’m over all this cliche shit

Proving that Verity murdered Harper wouldn’t make Jeremy feel better. It would make him feel worse. It would open up so many wounds. It would rip the fresh wounds open even wider.

Bro, MIND YOUR BUSINESS! YOU ARE NOT A PART OF THIS MESSED UP FAMILY, stop inserting yourself! That’s what she said!

He raises an eyebrow. “You mean alright.” I smile. “Alright.”

Shut up you douches

making no attempt to pull out. He collapses on top of me, still inside me.

Bruh were you planning on asking her if you could because your dumb ass doesn’t have a condom?? Nope just going do whatever the hell you want, figures

We’re quiet, because we both know what we just did. We don’t discuss it, though.

Rachel Oates might be right in saying he has a kink for getting someone pregnant like dude has terrible pullout game right now, you suck jeremy

When it’s over and I relax against the bed, he kisses me one last time.

Note to self: find a good romance/thriller book with good erotica because the only examples I’ve read here so far all suck (Wattpad and ao3 have way better stuff than this tbh)

I’ve fallen in love with him because of Verity’s words. Everything she revealed about him has given me insight into the

Why would you choose to believe Verity’s idealized way of writing him when that’s what screwed things up between you and your agent, you should know better Lowen and I cannot stress this enough, stop going after this married mediocre man.

He deserves to be with someone who will put her love for his children before anything else.

So lowen you think you are far superior to verity, girly you are clearly obsessed with Jeremy too but you don’t see that. You only see the things that you can “do better” than verity now that jeremy is cheating on her with you. You wanna try to be the exact opposite of her but you don’t seem to understand that you also suck as a person/human being and are having the gall to take over her life and her family while excusing it all in the “name of love”, what a load of bullshit

I pull the pillow off my face and I place it under my hips, lifting them so that everything he just left inside me doesn’t seep out.

🤢 🤮 🤮 🤮

I dreamt about Crew when I fell back asleep. He was older, about sixteen. Nothing significant happened in my dream, or at least, if it did, I can’t remember it. I only remember the feeling I had when I looked into his eyes. Like he was evil. It was as if everything Verity had put him through and everything he’d seen was embedded into his soul, and he had carried that with him through childhood.

Bro you are exhausting, you are so paranoid about the wrong fucking things like what in the world makes you think worrying about this poor child becoming a murder helps anything right now?

I’m in the kitchen with him, just Crew and myself.

You barely spent time with this child and you are screwing his father while his mother is in a vegetative state, do you know how messed up that could be to this young kid’s perception of the world

At least it’s not Fallout or Grand Theft Auto. There’s hope for him yet.

Isn’t he like 8/9 so this seems accurate? My brothers played like Mario kart and Roblox, fnaf is a little more for older ages but I personally think it’s fine if they are into certain games as long as you monitor the games and remind them of how you would like them to enjoy this certain piece of media that is both safe and appropriate (Just searched it up and crew’s fucking five, omg you are too much Hoover, is this your way of perpetuating that stupid take of “violent games make violent kids” you really are something else like a 32 yr old lowen, who is a writer and should be a better researcher, should know that and you as a 43 yr old lady should also know that based on actual statistics and you could have easily researched this too but you didn’t feel the need apparently, no you just decided to pull this “hot take” out of nothing and stick with it) Also toy blast looks like such a scam of a game and I’ve never seen any five year old play this (I have worked with kids this age and they like dinosaurs, coco melon, bluey) but I think it’s something people my age (early 20s) or my parents age (around 40) would play and then their kids watch it) I guess that there might be some kids who play this but it’s not so commonly known like Roblox or among us

He giggles, like it’s funny.

It is

I don’t think he’s an asshole, anymore. Not like the first day I met him.

You had no reason to believe that before fyi

I feel like that’s on me. I’m the one with the manuscript. I’m the one with the responsibility to tell Jeremy if I think his son has been damaged more than he thinks.

Who suddenly gave you this position like you aren’t a professional in this field? You are a fucking writer so what makes you think your opinion of what medical/therapeutical treatment this kid needs matters—there is no weight to your side of things, your job is to just finish verity’s series like can you get it together (I wish you were fired)

“Mommy said I shouldn’t talk to you if you ask me questions about her.”

……

I grab the handle of the butter knife and pull it out of Crew’s mouth.

Bro you made shit worse omg, lowen is truly a perfect example of human trash

“He needs stitches.” Jeremy scoops him up. “Grab my keys. They’re in the living room.”

Jeremy my dude, why would you trust this woman to be around your child anymore, weird shit keeps happening and she’s always around when it happens…I would be hella suspicious of her at this moment (I already was earlier but for different reasons)

Crew in his booster seat.

This child has a fucking booster seat and he’s crying now in pain like omg lowen, he is hurt because you can’t leave shit alone. Fucking nosey ass bitch

I don’t want to be here anymore, I don’t, I don’t, I hate this job.

Good because you sucked at it (0.5/5)
