Chapter: Sweet paybacks Pt 2~18~“Come on now. Don’t be upset, sweetheart.” He coaxed her by pulling her closer to himself, even when she was resisting him. “Leave me alone,” she pouted, as if she wasn’t enjoying being spooned by him. “I’ll make it up to you.” He announced. This piqued her attention, so she flipped around to face him again, “How?” Ace held the back of his head, holding eye contact with her, “Like this,” he then leaned closer and captured her lips. Slow strokes of their lips filled the room, sucking upper and lower in turn. It made her mind stop, and her stomach filled with butterflies. Forgetting why she was upset with him in the first place. She couldn’t even remember her own name if you asked her at that moment. Her body moved, and she sat on top of him, straddling him in the middle, lips still locked. He brushed her hair off her face while she lowered herself down and deepened their kiss, sucking his tongue as if it was the sweetest thing she’d ever tasted. Her hands were tracing his chest w

Chapter: Sweet paybacks Pt 1~17~Minsi’s eyes slowly cracked open, adjusting to the morning light—a ghost of a smile formed on her lips. The room was exactly how she imagined a room for a man like him would be. Dark grey walls, white ceilings and curtains, with only a subtle amount of modern furniture and decor. There was a glass door that she was sure led to his closet. Another door to the bathroom, and another, which was a double door, revealed a balcony. Clean, classic, and masculine, or in simple language…Ace. When she felt a heavy hand surrounding her waist, her smile stretched further on her lips. And then the heat started to rise on her cheeks. She was a little bit sore from their continuous activities. Last night was the best night of her life. She couldn’t believe that this was her fate now. But then she was also claiming it. Because without any doubt, this was her life now. The two of them had the wildest night. The man had such high stamina, and she was sex deprived for a while. So both of them quenc

Chapter: I want you Pt 2~16~“I won’t. But I need you to understand something, sweetheart. I don’t do it sweetly. I’m–uh–a little bit rough.” He rubbed the back of his head, his ear turning red. Minsi raised her brow with a grin on her lips, “Just a little, you said?” He shook his head, “Actually, very rough.” She laughed, burying her face in his chest at his blunt confession. “So?” He asked, rubbing her collarbone. She looked up at him, mischief glinting in her eyes, “Take me, Ace. Roughly.” A shudder rumbled on his chest, “Fuck. You looked so sexy saying that.” He said, pushing himself away from her, and started to shed his clothes slowly and drop them on the floor. Meanwhile, she leaned back on the wall, waiting, ogling, biting her lip, eyes never leaving him. She was getting impatient by the second, but she was glad he wasn’t rushing it. The sight before her was worth it. Broad shoulders with a toned chest, defined abs that made her fingers itch to trace them. His slim waist and Oh. A silent gasp left h

Chapter: I want you Pt 1~15~Ace gathered her up in the same position, opened the car door, and kicked it shut once he was standing outside. He strode inside while her lips were busy on his neck. Sucking, biting, kissing. His entire body was on fire. A fire that needed to be put out. And she was the only one with the power to. He took three stairs at a time, pressing her ass all the way. Instead of taking her to her room, he kicked the door of his room. Minsi was placed on her feet. She didn’t even get the chance to admire the room when her body was pressed against the wall. Leaving her back to him. Ace lifted her hands and pinned them above her head. She let out a shudder when his hands traced the curves of her body. “You have no idea how bewitching this body is, baby.” He grabbed her ass and squeezed it, “How amazing and right it feels in my hands.” Minsi let out a moan. “Then show me how.” She couldn’t wait anymore. She wanted him. All of him. Buried deep inside her. His skin pressed with hers. Ace presse

Chapter: His & Hers~14~Right after the union formalities ended, a ceremony followed. It was then that Minsi was introduced to almost everyone in the hall. There were a lot of people. Ace told her the attendees were only half of the people of the Mistwood pack and that she should prepare to meet with more people in the near future. For what’s worth, Minsi wasn’t nervous or scared anymore. It’s like something has switched for good inside her the moment she got united with Ace. She could feel a strong confidence swirling deep inside her. It’s like magic how things have suddenly switched for her. And she loved every second of it. This was her home, her people, and her family. And she would do whatever it takes to keep it that way till the day she dies. “Now, I understand why he is so whipped. Look at how glued he is to her. Minsi, you are one beautiful woman.” Wade spoke, sipping his wine, while holding Stephanie's hair with his free hand, so that it wouldn’t interfere with her. “Thank you,” Minsi said, h

Chapter: The Luna Pt 2~13~“Hi,” Minsi uttered upon feeling her intense gaze on her. Rachel’s face lit up instantly, “I love her!” She declared when they had only met a second ago, and she didn’t even know her name. “Hi, I’m Rachel. Ace’s one and only little sister. I’m happy you’re finally here.” She rumbled, causing both her husband and brother to laugh. Rachel was oddly excited today, given that she was pregnant, which had been making her moody for two months now. “I-I’m Minsi, nice to meet you,” Minsi replied and stretched her hand to her. Rachel looked at her as if she had lost her mind, “Nonsense. Come here.” She slapped her hand away and pulled her in for a warm hug.“This is Finn, my handsome husband.” Rachel introduced herself after pulling away from the hug. “And, I’m Stephanie. And this is my husband, Wade. God, she is really here, baby!” The woman wiped her tears. Minsi recognized the following woman. She is a doctor who treated her a day ago. At the end of the day, Minsi was introduced to the

Chapter: Character's notes~135~CarmeloLife has many colors, and amongst the number of them, I found the most appealing ones to me. Black and Gold. With a wild wolf cut and coldest plus most hypnotizing brown eyes I’ve ever seen. They were alone, powerful enough to have me on my knees and begging for mercy.A little dust of freckles on the cheeks and the sweetest lips that I’ll never get enough of. Kissing her lips or smooching her cheeks has become my thing. My beautiful color speaks a lot of languages, but money is her favorite, and I love to spoil the hell out of her.Fierce in the open with a gentle and delicate heart on the inside. A Grumpy facade that intends to push people away, but my teasing always manages to leave a crack behind it. Strong but never shy to show her vulnerabilities to me. Cold but sprinkles her kindness in her own way. Dangerous, but it’s the fire in her that made me lose my senses. And God oh God, I’d willingly get on my knees and let it burn me. I’m so madly, immensely, wholehearte

Chapter: Moment for life~134~ChiaraI bit my lips, staring at the reflection in the mirror. I walked out of the room and went straight to his office, swinging around a black silk handkerchief. Instead of knocking, I kicked the door open. Carmelo was on a business video conference. His gaze landed on me for a brief second before returning to the laptop. Oh, I came prepared, my love. I cleared my throat and then leaned against the door. I held the handkerchief between my teeth, raised my leg up, and started to take off my net leggings, dropped it down, and then did the same with the other one.I glanced back to find him staring at me. Good. I took off the kimono next. It pooled under my feet. His lips parted, and his eyes darkened. I raised my hands and ran them both through my hair. I was left in a red thong only. “Boss? What are your thoughts on the new decor proposal?” Instead of replying, he leaned back on his chair, adjusting himself.I gathered my hair over my shoulder. My fingers traced the outline

Chapter: Mrs Conti~133 part II~ChiaraLater that evening, I was officially Mrs Conti. People were busy as the ball kicked in because my mother-in-law said she wanted a ball for the wedding reception. Who was I to deny her? I let the woman do her thing. Carmelo, who was talking to his father at their table, walked toward me. I had gone to change and came back with a lace long-sleeve black dress that was just above my knees. I coupled it with my golden jewelry and my hair held up in a messy bun with a few strands let loose. Chelsea was the one who accompanied me. “I have the love gloves of all flavours in my possession, by the way. Just say the word.” She teased. I had gone to her for condoms one time because we ran out of them the night Carmelo asked to marry me for the first time. She hadn’t let that go yet. My lips curled up in mischief, “Thanks, Chelsea. The thing is… we’re doing it hard and raw tonight. No love gloves needed.” I said. She squealed and blurted, “Girl, shut up!” She bent over her

Chapter: Mrs Conti~133 part I~ChiaraOh, just when I thought the day was the best day of my life, the Contis weren’t done giving me heart attacks. I returned home to a surprise wedding ceremony. Of course, Carmelo knew everything. He planned this with both of our families throughout the year. And the fact that I caught no whiff of it shocked me. I was focused on the vacation and nothing else. There were a number of people waiting to tend to me because the ceremony had already begun. I washed up. Some did my hair, some did my face, and some were busy with my dress and jewelry. The dress and jewelry that Viva and Leo were making throughout the year, as per Carmelo's secret request. Everyone kept me in the dark. But also, everyone worked to make this day possible.I couldn’t describe how happy this made me. And I couldn’t cry because the makeup looked so amazing. So I just sat there. I was a ball of nerves and emotions waiting to explode. I was going to kill Melo. Mamma walked in after a while.“Goodne

Chapter: Every lifetime~132~ChiaraWhen he told me I was going to love it, diving never crossed my mind.We stood by the edge of the boat and dived in together. I knew how to dive. What I wasn’t prepared for was the meters we went below. The blue shade of the water was getting darker. Different marine animals and fish species in different colors swam with us. I raised my hand to touch a group of small fish, zoning out at how beautiful and synchronized they were. But they avoided me like I was a plague.I felt a light tap on my shoulder. I turned to find the man frowning in his mask. He motioned for me to follow him. He was a natural with the water current, unlike my careful diving self. I’d never dived under the sea, just for starters. Then a large bronze statue came into view as we dived to it. The Christ of the Abyss. I’d heard about it before. It stood majestically on the seafloor with hands spread wide and raised upward. The head was also tilted upward. The statue stood on a sort of styled altar which

Chapter: Surprise~131~CarmeloRight after landing in Italy, coming from our one year vacation, Chiara wanted to pass by Milan first before we head home, in Portofino. I escorted her to the graveyard, where she stood for a while without saying a word. Just staring and wiping the corner of her eye. Only God knew what went through her mind.Next, we stopped at Marco’s place. Yeah, he sold the previous mansion and bought another one at a different location within Milan. Where he and their mother, Laura, lived along with the remaining of their men. Marco freed those who wanted to walk away, too. Good news, he was planning on proposing to his long hidden girlfriend soon, and only I knew about it. Then we passed by her art gallery. Then we met with her therapist since his office was around the area. Her therapist said he loved her development. And I loved hearing that.I had my own plans for her, but I worked hard to keep them under wraps and not spoil them this whole time.The helicopter landed on our pro
