A Virgin's sinful yearnings
"How did you do it Odette?" he asked again.
Her lips parted as her heart pounded against her breast.
What—" she gasped, her voice trembling. “What—?” He moved closer until there wasn't room between them. The warmth of his body pressed against hers, the scent of him—fogged in her mind.
Then his mouth came down, his lips beside her ear, his breath on her skin searing.
"Just how did you end my brother's life, Odette?”he breathed.
Eighteen-year-old Odette Davenport was married to Salvatore Moretti, heir to a powerful empire. Five years later, Salvatore is murdered, and as his widow, Odette is the last person to see him alive.
Nico Moretti, Salvatore's brother, returns home determined to uncover the truth. But as his investigation unfolds, Odette wrestles with guilt and a forbidden desire ignited by his presence. Every glance hides a secret, and every kiss could be their last.
This is a dark, suspenseful tale of love, loyalty, and deception delves deep into the Moretti family's dark underbelly.

Chapter: Chapter 9*****"Scarcely a sprinkle of yarrow and marigold," Nanny Bellamy declared, moving a strand of her hair behind her ear as she tied a scarf across her neck. "Nothing more. I'll be back before you know you miss me.""I might have Dr. Pelham drop by," Nico proposed.She'd smiled at him then, making him feel like he was one and five all over again."And disturb your father with a few aches? Oh, no," she'd said in a gentle voice. "He won't appreciate the fuss. This will do."He hadn't objected. Maybe he should have.Bellamy pushed the basket onto her arm and dismissed him with the same smile. "Mind your sketches, young sir. I'll have that garden wall straight this time."He'd promised it would. As he watched her leave.Two hours later.He headed down the corridor to the servant's quarter."Has anyone spotted my Nanny?" he inquired of a small kitchen maid with a wicker basket. "Well, She ought to be back by now."She opened her eyes wide in surprise. "Not since morning, sir. I think she sa

Chapter: Chapter 8Odette stirred from her drowse, the pillow warm below her cheek. Her head throbbed faintly at the temples as she tried to lift her hand, scarcely moving the blanket beneath her. Her skin felt displeased and feverish. Slowly, she turned her head, her lashes dragging open to find herself quite in the familiar surroundings of her bedroom. The curtains were drawn. Groggily, she tried to move, but a searing pain extended outward from her body as she felt a wave of dizziness wash over her. “Glad you’ve come back to us.” Startled Odette’s eyes moved slowly towards the voice. Odelyn. She was seated on the chair near the hearth, her hands folded neatly in her lap. “You caused a considerable stir, sister. Even summoned concern from Sir Moretti. quite the feat, that.” Odette blinked slowly, and swallowed, her throat bitter. "What…what happened?" "You fainted in the old garden," Odelyn replied simply, smoothing the skirt of her gown. "Sir Nico carried you in, and yelled for the maids

Chapter: Chapter 7Nico had woken up at some wee morning hour, though he hadn’t slept well, for days now. Sleep had become some kind of myth lately, something his body pretended to do while his mind would roam in the dark, back to the study. To Odette. He ought to have been focusing on the case. On the folder locked away in his room, parked with Giancarlo's forensic overviews and tribunal-acceptable suspicions. On the evidence that Salvatore had been stabbed first, before even being shot, and that his murderer had likely dispatched him up close—intimately. In rage or terror. But instead— His thoughts, strayed elsewhere every night, every minute. To her. To the sound of her breathing. To the warmth of her skin against his. To the sweep of her waist, the soft flesh of her wrist. To something entirely and sinfully different. Making merciless love to her. God. She drove him mad without even trying to seduce him. And giving that he was not supposed to feel this way, or was not wo

Chapter: Chapter 6 A knock on her door was tempered, no louder than the rain on the windows, which started a few hours ago. Odette's brow creased into her pillow. The room was biting, the fire had long since gone out. She opened her eyes, slowly, her breath fogged in the darkness. Penelope, she thought, rising. Another knock came, then nothing. She moved across the floor, her palm against the door. Then opened the latch her breath caughting. Nico. Not her maid. What was he doing here? He stood in the doorway, soaked, his shirt plastering to every inch of his skin, his coat were open, water running down from his hair. His chest heaved once. And her gaze fall—to the faint outline of his abs under the wet clothes. His belt. His forearms. His knuckles which were curled white at his hips. She froze, her throat drying as she swallowed. "Nico—?" She murmured in a rasp. Her heart beat quickening. He looked at her like a man on the brink of madness. Her fists tightened into the doorframe

Chapter: Chapter 5Odette’s blood ran cold. Her eyes whipped for the silhouette in the doorway, while still scandalously perched on the margin of her late husband's desk. Suzanna stood frozen—one of the oldest house keeper, her mouth slightly parted, her expression stricken her gaze fixed somewhere just over Odette’s thigh— refusing to see what might already be seared into her memory. She immediately averted her vision from Odette's positioning on the desk. "I beg your pardon, Sir Nico," she breathed, "I didn't realize the study was occupied." With that she redraw, the door shutting behind her. Silence closed in around the room. Odette remained paralyzed, unable to move. Her face burned with a heat that made her want to vanish into the floorboards. Her legs trembled fitfully as she tried to move against the desk, to modestly shut her knees properly, but the movement only tended to increase the burning pulsing low between her thighs. What in God's name was happening to me. She thought. Y

Chapter: Chapter 4"You appear to be Odette Davenport" Nico replied his hands still fixed on hers. "Now answer me. How excertly did you end my brother's life." He growled. She shook her head, her lips trembling. "I— I—did—not do it." She breathed. Nico turned away from her, pacing, his fingers clenching and unclenching at his sides He stared blindly at the wall, then ran a hand over his hair. The words did not soothe him, more so. They fueled him. She looked… afraid. And that only cinched more suspicion around his ribcage. He had recited Giancarlo's words a dozen times at least by now, and yet they still sounded very much unreal. "Scratches Nico. On his torso. Deep. Defensive. And a stab wound— on the lower abdomen." "The bullets came after." "Your brother wasn't just shot. The shots came afterwards. Salvatore was stabbed first—possibly even killed that way." "There had been signs of intimacy too. I noticed it when I was doing the preliminary exam on Salvatore's body, moments befo

Chapter: Chapter 7Join us for breakfast June's povRoxy chuckled, clearly enjoying how flustered I was, as we walked toward a matte black Porsche 911.“So…” I said after a moment, glancing sideways at her, “you’re… you know, like gay?”With a sly smile, Roxy unlocked the passenger side door. “Bisexual, actually. I enjoy both. Why limit yourself, right?” she said casually, then leaned close that her breath brushed my ear, making me shiver. “You should try it sometime, you know.”I blinked from shock, stepping back a little, feeling my cheeks heat up. “Uh, no thanks,” I said quickly. “I…I think I’ll pass.” Roxy straightened and chuckled quietly “Suit yourself.”“Soo…” I tried to change the subject. “Doesn’t he like…my soon to be brother, I mean…doesn’t he mind? You know, you being… like that?”She laughed, tossing her blue black hair over her shoulder “He doesn’t mind much of anything.”I opened my mouth to respond, but she added with a teasing grin, “He probably won’t even mind that you caught him fuc

I could feel what they call orgasm building, and coiling tighter and tighter in my core as Adrien’s lips continued to leave a trail of fire as they moved down my neck, sucking at my sensitive skin. He took one of my nipples again into his mouth from the clothes, his tongue swirling around the hardened peak as his fingers continued his magic. He might be the notor

Chapter: Chapter 5 Are you a virgin JuneJune's Pov I froze in shock, my back resting on the cold wall not believing my eyes as his mouth claimed mine in a deep passionate kiss. Adrien, the same sexy looking asshole who just called me a kid, was actually kissing me, and every inch of me seemed to want more, considering that I’d been imagining it since the moment I saw him tip back his glass of liquor, watching the way his throat moved as his friends kept talking to me.I hadn't expected him to actually follow me, not after how much of a jerk he’d been. His tongue traveled into my mouth hotly, which tasted of whiskey and fuck… it was melting every bit of self control in me.He pulls at my hair making me gasp. A soft pleasing sound escaped my lips from pleasure, and I swear if this kept up any longer, I was seconds away from shamelessly begging him to fuck me.My calves ache almost instantly at the thought.God, what the hell is going on with me?It was inappropriate to think this of a stranger.

Chapter: Chapter 4You bring someone this young to my Club Adrien’s Pov I was bored out of my fucking mind, reclined on the club lounge’s leather couch, a tumbler of whiskey in hand, while nursing what had to be my third drink, maybe fourth, I'd stop counting. I let the burn settle in my chest. It was the same shit every weekend. Same circus. Same parade of women my friends brought to fuck. I’d hoped to leave early tonight, but the truth is, the idea of going home irritated me more. I’d stopped by the house earlier with Roxy to pick up some files I left behind, and ended up bending her over my bed for a quick one before leaving her there. But going back… I wasn’t in the mood to face my father’s newest fresh start. The thought alone made me down another swallow of whiskey. Why he felt the need to marry again after what my mother did… I’ll never understand. I don’t even call her my mother anymore. The bitch disgusts me. Which made me so sure that this new woman will be no different. A deceiver.

Chapter: Chapter 3 Ever been fuckedJune's Pov The bass was so loud I could feel it in my chest, rattling through my ribs. Lights moved red and purple across the crowded dance floor, as people grind on each other.Some dancing, some making out right in the middle of the dance floor, while others with cocktail glasses in hand were already drunk.I sat stiffly on a barstool and turned to Roxy who was leaning over the counter, and ordering drinks for us. She looked completely at home here, seducingly smiling at the bartender, while swaying her hips to the music.I felt like a fish who was dropped on the wrong shore. I didn’t even know why I’d agreed to come. I guess because I’d never stepped foot in a nightclub before. Or maybe it was Kyle’s voice still in my head, mocking me, and reminding me that I was nothing but a boring nerd who could never do half the things Hannah did.“Hannah knows how to have fun. You? You could never duck.”The words still stung, killing me more than I wanted to admit really.
