LOGINAXEL SALVATORE ROSSII said something stupid that should have remained as a thought. Those words weren’t supposed to come out at all, but I’d fucked up.And I knew Olivia felt the same way.After returning from the gym, the room was empty. The air still had the faint scent of vanilla, but all her things were out of sight.I rushed out to meet Rosa, trying to clarify if Olivia had left alone or with Alix. As expected, Rosa was in the kitchen preparing breakfast… alone.“Dov'è Alix?” [Where’s Alix?]She looked back at me standing in the doorway, her hands under the running water. Rosa tilted her head back slightly, responding in a low voice.“Olivia took him about an hour ago.”I was right. She was really mad and didn’t even bother to wait for me before leaving.I strolled into the kitchen and headed for the fridge, grabbing a bottle of water after opening it. My singlet was soaked with sweat, and my throat was parched.Rosa had her eyes on me the whole time, and I already knew she thou
OLIVIA“You know you’re supposed to pull out, right?” I asked Axel in a teasing manner, but it was nothing far from the truth I tried to explain.I couldn’t risk getting pregnant again and going through all that pain after almost two years. I loved Alix so much, but pregnancy? It wasn’t something I wanted to do right now.Or… Again.Axel scoffed playfully, his fingers raking through my hair as I lay on his chest. We’d only finished a few minutes ago, and while I’d tried to push him off, he refused to pour his seeds on the bed.“You don’t want to carry my baby?” He asked, making me feel guilty with the tone he used.“I’m not on the pills,” I said, raising my head to stare at him. “And I don’t want to get pregnant now.”His eyebrows furrowed. “Why?”I sighed. “Because I don’t want it?”“Olivia,” Axel’s voice was husky as I held his gaze, watching his eyes twitch. “You’re making me feel… bad.”That wasn’t the intention, but he wouldn’t understand. I sat upright, tucking strands of my ha
AXEL SALVATORE ROSSIThere was no use holding anything back when I wanted her more than anything. I’d taken a walk, tried to get involved in anything that would get my mind off what had happened…Anything at all.But it didn’t work. Not in the way that I wanted it to. Olivia was tempting me, and even if I wanted to—I couldn’t look away.My fingers moved over her supple skin as she tilted her head backward, clinging to me like her life depended on it. Inhaling my scent on her made my bulge twitch, and I didn’t hesitate to peel off my sleeves.At least she didn’t smell like him anymore. She had my T-shirt on, the fabric thick as I hiked it up her waist to feel her skin. I groaned softly, the sight of her neatly shaved pussy threatening to make me lose control.All my control.My lips claimed hers, this time, it was rough and passionate, fueled with the desires burning through me. Everything I’d held back slipped free, and I savored the citrus sweetness on her tongue.Refreshing and swe
OLIVIAAxel left immediately after saying those words. I stood there for a moment, trying to catch my breath as my legs trembled. The second I heard him close the door shut, I dashed into the bathroom. He didn’t want me walking around with Damien’s scent on my skin, and I regretted kissing him at all.My eyes were shut tightly as I stood under the shower, washing my skin with his soap and everything he had on the racks. I didn’t want him to get mad at me again, and I was desperate to make things right between us this time.After bathing, I tiptoed back into his room and strolled towards the wardrobe. All he had were black sleeves, and it was a hassle trying to find a T-shirt, which was also black.It was long enough to drop on my thighs by the time I wore it, but it smelled like him. I hugged myself tightly, my lips curling into a smile as I reached for the bed to rest my head.My hair was damp, my whole body smelled like lavender, and it gave me a satisfactory feeling. I tossed my
OLIVIAI dragged my feet behind Axel as he led the way to his room, my heart racing with anticipation.He locked the door after we got in, then kept his back against me while I stood there, fidgeting with my fingers.I didn’t want to be the one breaking the awkward silence. But minutes passed, and he didn’t say anything, so I decided to make the first move.Only to end up speaking at the same time.“Why are you—?”“Why did you—?”Exhaling sharply, I kept quiet, waiting for him to continue as he slowly turned around to face me, hands in his pockets.Time went still as he looked at me, and my skin prickled with awareness as he moved closer.“I need honest answers, Olivia,” he said quietly, halting in front of me. “I don’t want you lying to me no matter how painful your answers would be.”I gulped down a swallow, feeling the lump stuck in my throat. And I couldn’t stop but wonder what questions he wanted to ask.“Questions?” My eyebrows arched. “What questions?”He pressed his lips into
AXEL SALVATORE ROSSII’d almost dropped Alix into the pool after seeing Damien that close to Olivia. His hands were all over her, holding her waist and body pressed against hers.I forced myself to breathe, to act unbothered like my heart wasn’t ripping apart at the sight. But when he kissed her… I lost it.She’d reciprocated, and watching her make the next move to kiss him passionately left steam coursing through my body.I stormed towards them, leaving Alix with Rosa as my fists clenched. My eyes were blazing, and I cursed under my breath. Staring at her as she tried to walk away, my chest puffed up. She glanced away, making another attempt to storm off, but I caught her wrist.“Let go of me,” she snapped, wriggling free roughly. With Damien staring at me with a taunting expression, I approached him instead, grabbing his collar roughly.“You motherfucking…” I trailed off, slamming his back against the rails. “What did I tell you about crossing your boundaries?”He pushed me off ro
AXEL SALVATORE ROSSI.I didn’t know what my Kitty had done to me. But—a question burned within me.What spell had my Kitty cast?It wasn’t just desire she’d awakened; she’d chipped away at my iron will, leaving me undone.And for the first time in my life, I craved to be hers.Which felt… rare.It
OLIVIAAxel pulled back, his face a sudden blur. I forced my body upright on the bed, feeling my fingers suddenly start to fidget.Why? Because Nelly instilled some sort of fear in me that was actually scary and uncontrollable.He turned in a sharp, jarring movement, keeping his eyes narrowed at t
AXEL SALVATORE ROSSI.“My eyes!”Olivia screamed, her voice coming out in a throaty gasp. I rushed towards her after seeing the horrifying sight—she had splatters of the hot sauce on her face.Panic began to set in as I desperately tried to find a way out of her pain. My ears picked up the clicking
AXEL SALVATORE ROSSI.Three days.Three fucking days, and all Olivia had done was ignore me like the plague. She’d locked herself in the room repeatedly in a row, a streak she diligently kept going.I’d turned into a shadow of myself, always in the council room, holding a bottle of drink in my gras
