LOGINGiannaIāve been awake since his phone rang, and from how he hid to take the call, whispering like I wasnāt meant to hear, I knew it was serious.I just didnāt expect it to be about me.āGo on, tell me,ā I press, but Dmitry just stands there like a deer in headlights.The guilt on his face cracks the tiny bit of trust Iāve been building toward him.āItās⦠itās a surprise.āDoes he think Iām stupid? A surprise? Yeah rightālike I was born last week.āGet out.āHe pauses like I just asked him to do something impossible, I watch as his face falls completely and then shifts to have disappointment and confusion. ā...Youāre asking me to leave?ā he repeats, hopeful he misheard. His brows pull together, a faint crease forming between them, I know he's waiting for me to take it back and I want to. But I genuinely can't, I'm scared to give him the benefit of doubt. Whoever called wants him back in Toronto, and that's the fear that bugs me. It's best to let him go now than wait for the momen
DmitryGianna is beautiful. Her eyes squint just so when she smiles, and a dimpleāone-sided, mischievousāpops out like itās showing off. When she frowns from concentrating too hard, her eyes glisten, her forehead creasing in a way that makes me want to smooth it out myself.But right now⦠sheās caught off guard. Surprised by the rawness of my words. Thatās a different kind of pretty entirely. An ethereal beauty that seizes my breath and ignites a protectiveness I didn't think I had, and maybe⦠claim her all over again.āI didnāt say you were pretty,ā she claims, brushing her hair off her flushed face.āBut you called me āpretty boy,ā didnāt you⦠Mummy?ā I coo, and immediately realize my teasing mightāve backfiredābecause yeah, my cock just betrayed me with a sudden, hard jerk in my pants.Talk about being auto-sexual.āM-Mummy?ā she repeats, brow raised in pure disbelief.āYou donāt get it yet, do you?ā I murmur, leaning closer, letting the words sink in. āIām a gone man for you. I l
GiannaMy teeth sink into my bottom lip as I chew on it, trying to figure out how the hell Iām supposed to answer that question.Do I tell him the truth?That I got jealous of his relationship with Rhonda?God. Even thinking it sounds ridiculous.āI needed space,ā I say instead.It isnāt entirely a lie.āSpace for what, Gianna?ā he asks, exhaling slowly, frustration twisting his features. āYou told me you love me.āāAnd I do,ā I reply quietly. āBut I also love Kevin.āThe words feel heavy in my mouth.āAnd Iām not willing to break up with him for you.āHe suddenly drops to his knees in front of me.The movement is so abrupt it steals the air from my lungs, and I immediately force my eyes away, unable to look at him like that.āIām not asking you to break up with him,ā he says quietly. āAnd Iām not asking you to pause your life for me either.āHis voice softens, losing the sharp edge it carried earlier.āJust⦠donāt shut me out completely.āA pause.āPlease, Gianna.āāI⦠Iā¦ā The words
GiannaThe door is wide open, and the one person I never thought would find me is standing there in the doorway, his gaze burning straight into me while Iām still wrapped in Braideās arms.āWhat the fuck is going on here, Gianna?ā Dmitry barks again.Instead of pulling away like any sane person probably would, panic surges through me and I instinctively press deeper into Braideās embrace, my fingers clutching the fabric of his shirt like itās the only thing keeping me from falling.Dmitry looks furious.His eyes are blazing, jaw tight, the anger radiating off him that makes the air in the room feel heavy and suffocating.āIt isnāt what it looks like,ā Braide starts, his voice careful.But Dmitry cuts him off before he can even finish.āIām not talking to you.āThe words come out sharp and cold, his eyes never leaving mine for even a second.āIām talking to my ward,ā he grits out, the last word sounding like it physically pains him to say it.Then his gaze finally flickers toward Braid
Gianna Shit. Shit. Iām screwed. I step out of the bathroom and nearly jump out of my skin when I come face to face with my intruder. āWhat the fuck are you doing here!?ā I shriek, my voice bouncing off the hotel walls as heat rushes to my face. Braide stares at me like Iāve suddenly grown eight heads. āWhat do you mean?ā he says slowly. āI came to apologize.ā My heart is still racing from the call, the phone warm in my hand. āOkay,ā I snap. āApologize and leave.ā His eyes narrow slightly as he studies me. Then his gaze drifts past my shoulder⦠to the bed. Where my open laptop sat. āWho were you talking to?ā Panic crawls up my spine. Braide already knows too much about my life, and this particular secret is one Iād rather he never discover. āNo one,ā I say quickly, moving toward the bed and reaching for my laptop. Before I can close it, Braide follows behind me like a freaking shadow. He's close, too fucking close. I can feel the heat of his body behi
Dmitry āWhat the fuck do you mean sheās gone?ā I bark, my voice echoing through the hallway as my eyes bore into Donny. The guardās head hangs low. āBoss⦠she left this morning. Some guy picked her up.ā My fists clench at my sides. What the fuck happened? She was just in my bed. She was justā Frustration claws through my veins like acid. Only Gianna Ramirez is capable of pushing me to the point where I completely lose my senses. āYou let her leave without asking me first?ā I ask slowly. Donny opens his mouth, then closes it again like he realizes thereās no answer that wonāt get him killed. āI thought you knew,ā he says carefully. āShe said you were aware sheād be heading over to her place for a while.ā Her place. I nod once, dismissing him with a sharp wave of my hand before storming up the stairs two at a time. What the hell changed in three hours? I shove her bedroom door open, searching for any clue but there's nothing. The room is almost untouched, her bed still
Gianna I click the lock on my bedroom door twice to make sure it is secure, then lean against it for a second, letting out a slow breath. The room is quiet except for the soft hum of my ring light warming up. I glance at the clock on my desk. Ten minutes until the stream starts. I step in front o
Gianna āAre you okay?ā Kevin asks, slurping on his smoothie, eyes glued on me. A nod comes automatically, a smile forced into place. āYeah.ā He really is a sweetheart. Driving all the way to jerk faceās house, helping me pack what I need, then insisting on taking me out for breakfast. Well, brunc
GiannaFuck Tamer. Fuck today. Fuck everything.I need this out of me, away from me. My legs wobble so badly I have to grab the stair rail to stay upright.Right after the kiss punishment, Tamer disappeared. No message. No command. No release.Asshole.I get to my room and yank my jeans down. Iām j
Gianna"Oh baby, I can very well keep up." Braide smiles, showing off his pearly white teeth.Shit, damn. God did create men in this province with all the resources in heaven.Braide looks like he gifts good sex to women around the world who haven't had the opportunity to get a soul ripping orgasm
