ARIELLA I could feel it in the tension of his body, in the way his eyes kept shifting toward the exits, the entrances, every moving piece in the room. Always alert. Always calculating. Always ready..... Making sure no one tried anything. Still… I found myself listening to the speeches, to the cau
ARIELLA Asher, being Asher, made sure he stole a kiss from me, ruining my makeup all over again, before we even got out of the car. I barely had time to protest before he was already stepping out, adjusting his tie like nothing had happened, then coming around to my side and opening the door for
ASHER I wanted to devour her. To take her apart piece by piece and still want more when I was done. “Heaven,” I muttered against her lips, my voice rough as my mouth moved over hers again. My tongue chased hers, slow at first, then deeper, tasting, learning, claiming every inch like I had no in

ARIELLA Luca’s voice dropped lower, deliberate, each word heavy as it settled into the room. “This isn’t about threats anymore. This isn’t about the mistakes we’ve already made. Those mistakes are already done.” He paused, letting the weight hang between us. “Right now, this is about survival. F
ASHER Ariella is smiling. Really smiling. Her hair is tucked behind one ear. Her hand gestures in midair as she talks, and then she laughs at something Maria says. That sound...God, that sound. I used to hear it in my dreams. I used to ache for it in the silence of every damn night. And now it’s
We were lost. Lost in the passion. Lost in the euphoria. I was spent....so completely undone, my limbs heavy, my thoughts floating. I didn’t think I’d ever gone that hard, or if Asher had ever gone so hard on me before. I didn’t know which it was, me or him or both but I was still riding that hig
