It only dawned on me that he was talking about the pill. My throat tightened, but I dared not answer. I had already humiliated myself enough around Russo; the last thing I needed was to confirm his suspicions. How could I possibly admit that, yes, I had slept with Bash without protection, and worse—let myself get attached almost immediately? The thought of it made my stomach twist. And now, every time I caught even the slightest glimpse of him with another woman, it was like watching my heart shatter all over again.

“It’s okay. It won’t last,” he said the moment he closed the distance between us.

“What won’t last?” I asked, confusion tightening my voice.

“Katie’s son and the model,” he replied casually, like it was the most obvious thing in the world.

“Oh…” I muttered, unsure how to respond.

“But for my sake,” his voice dipped lower, and I caught the faintest smirk tugging at his lips, “I hope it lasts.”

He was standing so close now that I could smell his expensive cologne, laced with

    I found myself pressing into Alessandro Russo, our lips moving passionately as my hands tangled in his gelled hair, gripping a handful. He let out a low, almost involuntary groan at the contact.His other hand moved to the strap of my dress, slowly teasing it down my shoulder, testing my reaction.“Wait!” I gasped, breaking the kiss and stepping back, my chest heaving.He looked at me in disbelief. I knew this was not the first time I was somewhat teasing Russo, but I was scared to ever advance anything with him. “What’s wrong?” he snapped back to reality and decided it would not help being mad at me for changing my mind.“What if my father or Roni comes to look for me and they find us like this?” I asked worriedly. Then, his eyes widened before he burst out into laughter. I nervously laughed along with him because I did not understand why he laughed that hard. “What’s funny?” I asked as I continued to nervously laugh“I thought I had done something, but you are worried about your

    “Let me go and get dessert,” Jo announced, already marching off before anyone could respond. A beat later, Katie and my father followed suit, leaving Roni and me alone at the table, surrounded by everyone else’s abandoned bags and jackets like we’d been assigned babysitting duty.“Are you good?” she asked softly, studying my face.“I’m fine. Why wouldn’t I be?” I answered too fast, shoving a spoonful of ice cream into my mouth before she could look any deeper.My mind drifted, completely ignoring the chatter around me. I kept imagining Dove laughing softly while Bash pulled her close somewhere in one of Russo’s many hallways… maybe teasing her, maybe whispering something that made her giggle the way she always did.The images twisted in my chest like a knife, each one worse than the last.But my mind snapped out of the daydream when my father and Katie returned with their bowls of dessert, followed by Jo—and then finally Bash and Dove. She had Bash’s blazer draped over her shoulders,

    I tried to swallow the storm inside me, resisting the urge to be the dramatic person everyone expects—the one who runs out of the room crying and screaming. Yet the ache was sharp and undeniable as I watched him pull out a chair for her, the simple gesture cutting deeper than words. She slid into the seat with ease, her smile soft, her body settling comfortably beside him as if she belonged there, while I sat frozen, every breath heavy with the sting of being replaced.Jo kept looking at me, her gaze steady and unshaken, even though Roni was seated right beside her, talking endlessly about her husband and the weight of her marital issues. The words spilled from Roni like a flood, but none of them seemed to reach Jo; her attention lingered on me, quiet and deliberate, as if she were listening to something unspoken between us instead. “It is so lovely to see you again, Dove,” Katie said with a smile that lit up her face.Again? What did she mean by again?“Good evening, Dove. I am Eli

    Bash slid the chair out beside me and settled in comfortably, leaving Roni stuck between Dad and me. With Dad already wrapped up in conversation with Katie, and me about to get completely lost in Bash, poor Roni suddenly had no one left to talk to.“Good evening, Mr. Carter,” Bash greeted with an easy smile as he turned to my dad.“Bash, how are you?” my father asked warmly.“I’m good, sir.”“Good.”Then Bash’s gaze shifted. “Roni,” he said with a playful wink.Her cheeks flushed instantly, the faintest blush rising as she tried to mask it with a small smile.My father was already absorbed in whatever Katie was chatting about beside him, hanging onto her every word with keen interest.“Where’s Jo?” my father asked, his voice carrying loud enough for all of us to hear.“Oh, she’s here,” Bash replied easily. “I saw her talking to someone outside.”“Oh, good!” my father nodded, clearly pleased.I couldn’t stop the heat from rushing to my cheeks. My mind wandered back to that wild night wi

  • Accidentally His   81- The Bow tie

    Russo’s birthday night had finally arrived. I slipped into my burgundy evening dress, the silky fabric hugging my figure just right, and paired it with my favourite heels. My hair was swept up neatly, exposing the line of my neck, giving me just enough confidence to face the night ahead.The moment I opened my bedroom door, carefully lifting the hem of my dress so I wouldn’t trip, Roni’s voice rang out behind me.“Geez, someone might mistake you for the birthday girl instead,” she remarked, her tone caught between playful and pointed as her eyes lingered on me.I forced a smile, swaying past her.Roni was still nowhere near ready. She strolled around the hallway in curlers and a towel, humming to herself as if time wasn’t slipping away.“My, my, my…” my father chuckled the moment I stepped into the living room, his eyes sweeping over me with a proud smile. He was seated comfortably beside Roni’s husband.“Too much?” I asked, suddenly second-guessing my outfit.“Nope. Just perfect,” he
