LISA “I dare you to go strip on that pole for a minute,” she dared sweetly, the fakest and most plastic smile on her face. The others exchanged glances at the dare because yeah, looking at me, I didn't look like a girl that'd even want to go near a strip pole, not to talk of stripping on it but no one said anything. Well, except Maddy who bent to whisper in my ear. “You don’t have to do it if you don't want to, I can just drink the shots for you.” “No,” I smiled at her, “thank you but I’ve got this.” I reached for the top button of my jacket and popped it open and involuntarily, my eyes were drawn to Axel. He was staring at me, more like staring at what I was doing with his eyes fixated on the movement of my hands with an intensity that made my blood surge faster, that made everything in the room fade into thin air till it was just the both of us in the room and that... It made it seem like I was undressing for him, that I was baring my body for him to do whatever he wanted with
AXELFor as far back as I could remember, I've never done anything, not even the slightest and smallest thing that went against what I was supposed to do.I've always done what was expected of me. Trained to become the best physical fighter I've ever met, yes, I put my body through all those shit to get there.Become detached and take lives without flinching, yes, I did that too. Heck, I had my first kill at 8 when most kids were still trying to cram the multiplication table.I worked with a team and tracked down a snitch when I was just 12. I became a mastermind, someone to be feared, someone ruthless and dangerously lethal in the mafia world before I even became legal. I've been doing what was expected of me and even more to prove myself because I needed to prove myself worthy of being an Ivanov. I was a whore's son after all and dad brought me in when he already has his heir so I needed to be better than Avan at all costs. Not that that takes so much of hard work anyway, but Rom
LISAWere my cheeks still burning with embarrassment from what happened at the pub?Hell yes! I should have never let him get close to me, never let him put his hands on me but I did all that and this devastating result was what I got.It made my insides burn with disdain. What was I even thinking? It was just my neck and it was just a kiss. No matter how sensitive that spot was, no matter how responsive I've always been, I could have bitten back my moans, I could have pretended, I could have faked being stoic, and I'd done worse. I've stared far worse challenges in the eyes and passed excellently.But it took just one touch from the enemy, just the mere brush of his tongue against my skin and I was moaning, whithering mess.God! How much I hated every second of it!You mean how much you loved every second of it.Fine! I enjoyed it! He obviously knows what he was doing with his tongue and teeth and lips and that made me lose control. Knowing Axel now, he must be gloating about how I c
LISANo fucking way!No fucking way! I couldn't possibly get paired with Axel for a six weeks assignment. I hated him, thoroughly, I also completely disliked his guts and I was also madly attracted to him. So spending the next six weeks with him, working with him privately, was bound to be a disaster so immediately after the class was over, I ran to meet the rep and the lecturer and ask if I could get a change of partner but it was a no-no.A dead end.So I trailed back to the class with defeat written all over me. The class was already in groups of twos and I could tell that they were all already familiarizing themselves with each other for their projects and here I was, stuck with a partner I'd rather eat grass than work with.I didn't see him where I left him and a quick glance around the classroom revealed that he was leaning against the doorway, observing me with those dark hooded eyes of his. I marched up to him."So what now? Has the almighty Lisa Volkov kicked me out of h
LISAFor a while, I was glued to the ground in shock. My hands lay limply by my sides as Axel started kissing the hell out of me.His kiss was ravenous, like that of a starving, dying man that has been out of breath for so long and I was all the air he needed to breathe, to come to life again. His tongue plundered my mouth, forced my lips apart, and forced its way into my mouth, electrifying my entire body and making it come alive in places I never knew I could.I sighed into his mouth at the pleasure his skillful tongue was evoking in my body and that single moan jolted my senses into action.God! I was allowing Axel Ivanov to kiss me.I regained control of my limbs and I immediately raised my hands to push him off me but my attempts were feeble against his strength, it was like a 2-year-old fighting against Dwayne Johnson but that didn't stop me from fighting, it didn't stop me from writhing and struggling against his body but I should have known that a writhing female body against
LISAPerks to moments of insanity? Yeah, that thing that happened with Axel Ivanov was definitely what I'd call the perk of insanity.It's been five days since I saw him, five days since our encounter at the alley, not like that could hardly be called an encounter, he had kissed me, and that was the last thing that I expected. I never expected Axel to voluntarily kiss me, to give in to the insane attraction that was burning between us but he had done just that, kissed me deeply till I forgot how to breathe, till I forgot who we were, till I forgot that he was Axel Ivanov and I was Liza Volkov and we were enemies whose families have long been enemies who wouldn't hesitate to wipe each other out at the slightest provocation.But I didn't quite feel like that in his arms, I didn't feel like that when his tongue plundered my mouth and he held my wrists behind me to kiss me senseless. Instead, I felt a voracious hunger, a voracious desire so strong it consumed my entire being, it impaired
LISAOur drive to the library and the process of picking out the textbooks and materials for our assignment was quiet and fast. I had thought getting started on the assignment would take a while but Axel was surprisingly helpful.He was more than surprisingly helpful and in no time, we were almost done with work that should have taken us at least three days.My phone vibrated for the umpteenth time and I muttered excuse me to the man sitting opposite me before picking up Tana's call."Girl, where have you been? I've been calling you since you left. Have you checked online? it's going crazy. You didn't tell me...""Tana, I told you I was going for a group assignment, I'm actually in the middle of it right now and if I can call you back or meet you in the hostel by midnight, I should...""Yeah, you said it," she replied in a tone that made me know she must be rolling her eyes to the back of her head, "but you didn't mention that your partner is Axel Ivanov.""Yes, Axel is my..." his hea
LISA"So, you've been getting fucked by Axel?"Tana asked or rather suggested for the umpteenth time since two days ago that my picture with Axel went viral. I'd been scared, anxious that Angel was going to call at any minute, demanding to see me because she has seen those pictures before Prince took them down but that didn't happen.Which meant she didn't see the pictures before they were taken down.I was lucky, extremely lucky at that but that didn't mean I'd be as lucky next time. But there won't be a next time. There was never going to be a next time. "Are you even listening to me at all?" She waved her hand in my front, "or are you here busy," she winked suggestively, "fantasizing about Axel?"God! I groaned and looked around. We were in class, granted, it was not her class and she had followed me here to interrogate me about my alleged sex life with Axel. The lecturer wasn't around but the lecture room was almost filled with students and she was here throwing words like fuck
