Alani Lane

The next morning came with a dull ache between my legs and a burning sensation when I shifted on the bed. It was a stark reminder of what had happened between Alexander and me, proof that I had not imagined it, that I had not been that drunk not to comprehend his rough thrusts.

As soon as I sat up on the bed, a knock sounded. The door was pushed open, and a pretty young redhead woman, probably my age, walked in, balancing packaged clothes in her hands and a pair of white heels. "Good

    Alexander Voss"Relax," I said to Alani as we went up the stairs that led to one of the two front doors of my dad's mansion. "The meeting will end before you know it." I squeezed her soft hand in mine, feeling the coolness of her palm, then pushed the double doors open."Woah!" Her eyes widened, her mouth parting when we stepped into the grand foyer. Her gaze moved to the staircase that curved into two arms, then to the high ceilings where large crystal chandeliers hung, down to the white polished marble flooring with a few streaks of grey. I guided her further inside, my lips stretching into a smirk when she couldn't even blink."Careful, your eyes will pop out of the sockets if you widen them any further," I teased, guiding her to the right of the foyer, into the vast living room. It was still empty, just like I had hoped. I wanted to allow Alani to get familiar with the surroundings before the family members arrived."Welcome, sir," one of my father's housekeeping staff greeted. "W

    Alani Lane"What are you doing?" Shane hissed under his breath, his mouth twitching, eyes turning red. I shrugged in response, slow and deliberate, then turned to face the audience, as if I belonged there. My eyes automatically fell on Alexander, his brow arched as he looked at me, an unreadable expression on his face. The older man beside him was whispering something to him, with a frown on his handsome face."We've brought you two...our gift," Mia announced loudly in a sweet voice, looking at the bride and groom over her shoulder."Ladies, it is not time for gifts yet," the priest said, adjusting his glasses. "Do you have any reason why these two shouldn't be married?" he repeated, his voice calm as if he didn't know that I was the one who was supposed to be standing where Caroline was standing. We had met previously, and yet he stood there, completely ignorant.I turned, looked at the two, and then answered without hesitation, "yes." Gasps filled the open space, with Caroline wobb

    Alani LaneI held the pen tightly between my index finger and thumb, hovering over the last page of the marriage contract. Alexander stood beside me, one hand in his pocket, tapping his foot on the floor. His lawyer and best friend stood across the office desk, with Mia my lawyer beside him overlooking the entire signing."Are you having second thoughts?" Alexander asked, as my hand shook, looking at his signature in blue ink. I swallowed, question after question ringing in my head. Was I making the right choice? What if I fell in love with him along the way and he didn't believe in love? He had stated specifically that I was not to fall in love, that that would be the end of our agreement and that I'd only get half of the payment and return the condo."You know you can always say no, Lani," Mia reminded softly."No, this is what I want." I didn't know whether I was trying to convince her or myself. With a loud exhale, I wrote my signature down, officially becoming Mrs Voss on paper.

    "No," I murmured, summoning every inner strength I could get at that moment. My pleasure button protested by throbbing, however, especially when Alexander cupped me over the fabric."Are you sure?" he asked in a husky whisper, his breath falling on my ear, sending shivers down my neck to my spine.I closed my eyes when his other hand wrapped around my waist, steadying my shaking body. "Y-es," I stammered, pushing my front to his touch. There was something about him, something that made my heart forget it was in pieces, something that made me question whether I really loved Shane even in heartbreak. Something that had me comparing how Shane made me feel when he touched me and how Alexander was making me feel. Shane's touch at times felt normal, like it did not arouse me, and I had to pretend to feel it."Mr Voss," I called when he spun me around and gently pushed me towards the wall. Then he pushed his strong lean thigh between my legs, pressing on my aching pussy."Do you still want m

    Alani Lane"I'm going to push a finger in your ass if you don't let me down now!" I screamed, thrashing around as the man walked inside Alexander's Villa, carrying me as if I weighed nothing."Let her down." I heard Alexander's order, but with my upper body upside down, with my head near the man's toned ass, I couldn't see where he was.I was set down, stumbling forward before I could catch my steps. By the time I removed strands of hair from my face and straightened myself, the man had disappeared. I looked around, and when I spotted Alexander casually leaning on the minibar counter, my nostrils flared. My feet were moving before my mind could comprehend, marching towards him."How could you send your goons to kidnap me?" I shouted, chest pushed forward, stopping a few feet from him. "You had no right, absolutely none!"He didn't even move or react to my high voice, except to raise his glass to his beautiful mouth. Hell, I had to shake my head so as not to get pulled in by the softne

    Alani LaneI knew exactly which lawyer to be involved in the contract verification, and that was my cousin Mia. She was a lawyer by profession but rarely practised; she had chosen a dancing career over law. So after work, we met in our favourite restaurant to go through it before Julian joined us. With Caroline pregnant, there was no wasting time."Unbelievable," Mia stated two hours later, after I had narrated everything that had happened and we had gone through the contract line by line. "I have been worried sick about you," she pointed at me before continuing, "thinking that you were alone somewhere dying of heartbreak, while you were planning a wedding with your boss?""I have already told you, Mia." I swiped my index finger and thumb over my eyelids. "I lost my phone, and when I replaced it yesterday, I was in a hurry to get a hotel suite," I explained for the umpteenth time, swirling my cup of coffee on the table."You should have borrowed a phone. Hell, you should have driven t
