Author’s Note:Hey, readers. Just a quick reminder before we dive in: Right before the flashback we all just read, Lexi kissed Antonio, then ran upstairs and found the locket with his and Emily’s pictures — triggering everything. That single moment opened the floodgates. Now we’re back. Lexi is 24, stuck in a contract marriage with Antonio. He’s 26. Still dangerous. Still hers… maybe. Let’s continue 💔🖤......................................................................Present Day, Antonio's Mansion~After that night, the school offered to send her abroad for her remaining studies. She had declined before when she won the modelling competition, but when the school authorities said their offer still stood, she decided to accept it.South Korea was where she found solace. She could still remember how her mother cried that night, and Aunt Elena couldn't even form a word. Her mother blamed her for it—accusing her of enabling Lexi's immoral behaviour.But Lexi took all of the blame. O
Author’s Note:This is the final chapter of the flashback arc.Everything changes after this.The present awaits—and it's far from forgiving............................................................Her hands flew to her mouth. She didn't let that moan escape her lips fully, somehow she managed to remove her hands from his strong hold and she was relieved that they didn't notice.Everyone was so engrossed in the game that no one knew that Antonio just wickedly shoved his finger into her pussy and under the table. She suppressed another moan by holding the table tightly, her nails digging into the hard surface."Truth or dare?" She kept hearing the others as they played, heat and adrenaline tangled low in her belly. She couldn't take it anymore, she would bury herself in her bed at home if any of them notices what was going on here."Please...stop," a breathy moan escaped her lips as he went in knuckle–deep. He kissed her hair and increased his pace, he used his thumb to caress her
★The Second to the Last Flashback★..............…...…......….......…....................................'The Bonfire Party'8 PMThe bonfire party that everyone's been waiting for was here, and this time around, the host went a little bit extra to make things hotter.Lexi was on a FaceTime call with her friends in her room. They were all dressing up and checking themselves out at the same time.That's right — they're crazy like that."The fûck are you doing, Lexi?" Sasha exclaimed. Lexi held them in shock as she wore her dress without wearing panties, only a black lacy bra."I'm doing exactly what you're seeing," Lexi said, sounding unbothered."Wow! You look sexy. Seems like there would be a big show tonight for you." Raven winked, and she laughed."Oh cõme on! We'll meet at the party. You guys should get dressed and stop checking me out like you're a guy or something," Lexi said."You expect us not to look with what you're wearing? I mean, it's not that revealing, but you look gor
The following week~Two days to the bonfire party~Elena's Mansion~8pm~"Are you gonna come for the party?" Raven asked Lexi in their group video call. Lexi lay on her stomach on the bed, her phone in one hand. She was wearing black bum shorts and a red silky crop top."Hmm... I would have, but I can't anymore.""Why?" Raven asked."’Cause the person I was supposed to go with is acting weird.""We haven't spoken in five days, and besides, I don't think I should be the one giving out an apology, especially since I am not the one at fault. I mean, he was the one who let another girl go close to him, and he almost strangled my sister to death," Lexi continued."That's true, but what if all this is just a small misunderstanding? You guys should sort yourselves out," Sasha said, and Lexi scoffed."He has to say he's sorry, or I won't forgive him.""Seems like you already have," Sasha said, and Lexi frowned."Whatever..." Lexi said."You won't believe the big secret Raven is keeping from u
Warning: Violent content ahead, tread with caution.It's a long chapter. In fact, this chapter seems to be the longest I have written so far. Their high school story is almost ending.Do comment after reading....................................................................................Most times, we often only regret our actions after they've been done, and right now, that was the situation of these two youngsters.The dangerous son and heir to Morte Nera, and the fierce, sassy queen of France. Nobody would want to back down, and at the same time, none of them would want to accept their wrongs. But there is always a consequence for our actions. What will theirs be?Is it doom?Regret?Boundless toxicity or fighting for the most power over each other?~ ~ ~Her hands flew to cover her mouth as she weighed what she had just done, the gravity of her actions creating a time bomb in her brain.Marked. Deadly—that she couldn't take her mind off it. And soon enough—it was just a matt
Flashback 31—"What?!" Lexi snapped her head towards her sister, not believing a word she just said.She has got to be kidding...Yeah, it has to be a joke..."What's wrong, Lexi?" Angela asked, and Lexi shook her head repeatedly."It's nothing. I... I will be waiting outside," Lexi stuttered and ran off."I wonder what's wrong with her," Emily said with a frown."Could it be that she doesn't want me to work in her school?" she added."You should speak with her first before jumping into conclusions," Elena said, and Emily nodded.~Outside the house, in the garage, Lexi sat down on the trunk of her aunt's car, waiting.She had her head buried in between her hands as she got lost in her own thoughts.Emily suddenly got a job in Onore, which means she would see her every day at school; then she would know about her relationship with Antonio.Who was she kidding? She probably knew already.Why does she want to work in Onore all of a sudden? What happened to HD, and why did her mom allow
