Camilla

I lay still in the big bed measuring my breaths carefully. I knew when the door opened and I knew who entered.

His smell was quite distinctive and it made no sense for my body to respond to it but it did. I had been trying to sleep after what had happened when I heard Lucas's care come in. I had no idea he would try to come into his father's room but he did.

So now I waited, counting my breaths, until I heard the door close again with another soft click. Only then did I open my eyes.

  • One Night Stand With My Stepson    Chapter Forty-Eight

    CamillaI stared at the ceiling listlessly. I had been awake for hours and had been doing since. So I was definitely still tired because I hadn't gotten much sleep. I slipped out of bed and went down for breakfast or normalcy. Or whatever passed for it in this house. The moment I stepped into the dining room, my mood soured further. Isabella was already there, back from her family visit. She sat beside Lucas and was saying something to him with a smile on her face. The sight of her made irritation flare hot in my chest.She was back. Of course she was back. I wasn't happy about it at all, her presence only complicated everything, adding another layer of tension and resentment to this already suffocating house. Her dark eyes flicked up to meet mine as I entered, carrying an unmistakable displeasure that matched my own. I felt her gaze rake over me like physical touch, cataloging every detail of my appearance, searching for any sign of weakness or change in my absence. I didn't care.

    Camilla I lay still in the big bed measuring my breaths carefully. I knew when the door opened and I knew who entered. His smell was quite distinctive and it made no sense for my body to respond to it but it did. I had been trying to sleep after what had happened when I heard Lucas's care come in. I had no idea he would try to come into his father's room but he did. So now I waited, counting my breaths, until I heard the door close again with another soft click. Only then did I open my eyes. I found out my slip had shifted during my feigned sleep and was exposing more skin than I was comfortable with so I pulled it up and got down from the bed to follow Lucas.I eased the door open just a crack, peering into the dimly lit hallway and saw Lucas walking away. Why was I doing this? Every rational part of my mind screamed at me to go back to bed, to forget whatever madness had taken hold of me. But my feet kept moving, carrying me out into the corridor with a will of their own.I foll

    LucasI had received a call from Ivan earlier this evening. They had found Dario. I put a lighted cigarette in my mouth. Took them long enough.I told them to put him in the black room. Different from where his friend had died. Ivan was waiting outside with an umbrella,as the rain was drizzling, when I got there.He took one look at me and shook his head like he knew I was making trouble again. "He's ready," Ivan said simply, giving me a tray to stub my cigarette. " We have taught him a few lessons so I think he has had plenty of time to think about his choices."I nodded and went inside. Dario was tied to a metal chair in the center of the room. Interestingly, Ivan's idea of a few lessons was a swollen face, two bursted fingers and a bursted knee. Two of my men stood guard nearby, their expressions professionally blank. Dario looked up as I approached, his eyes widening with recognition and terror."Lucas," he rasped. "Whatever they told you...."I held up a hand, cutting him off w

    LucasCamilla sat rigid in the passenger seat beside me. The dress I had given her had ridden up her thighs, exposing the pale skin that called my attention to them everytime. Her bare feet were tucked awkwardly beneath her. She hadn't said a single word after she had asked me that question and I wondered what she was thinking.I allowed myself a small, private smile in the darkness of the car. This night was just the beginning of my laid down plans. It had taken months of careful orchestration, of pulling a lot of strings. It started from the day I realized that my father had someone close to him. He had tried to hide it from him, he had tried to hide his obsession over this red haired woman but he hadn't known that hatred run deeper than blood. It's why I knew Camilla's name. It's why I had taken her that night. And Sophia, the girl from the club was also orchestrated. Although everything else was true, I had known that Camilla won't resist saving her. She was quite dumb in that

    CamillaThere was nothing gentle about this kiss. Lucas kissed me like he’d been starving for it. His hand tightened on my chin, holding me exactly where he wanted me, while the other slammed against the wall beside my head. I tasted anger and hunger on his tongue as it swept into my mouth, claiming, demanding. A low growl rumbled from his chest when I bit his lip in retaliation.My body betrayed me instantly. Heat exploded low in my belly, slick and urgent, and I arched against him before I could stop myself. The thin red dress was no barrier at all. I could feel every hard inch of him pressed against me, his thigh still wedged between my legs from how he’d pinned me. My nipples scraped against his chest with every ragged breath, aching.I hated how good it felt. I hated him.I shoved at his shoulders, but my fingers curled into his jacket instead, pulling him closer. A whimper slipped out of me when he angled his head and deepened the kiss, devouring me like he wanted to consume eve

    Camilla We slipped out the estate. Lucas knew every corner without cameras and Elijah was nowhere in sight. I swear I still didn't understand that man. We took a path to a waiting car far from the main gate. "You shouldn't have dragged Elena into this," he said after a while of driving. "If Cassio finds out she talked..." "I didn't drag her. She wants to be free," I said. "And you are helping, so stop acting like you don't care." He glanced at me. "I wouldn't use the word care, princess. Don't be deceived." I looked at him. What was he going on about? He shifted the topic and began to talk about the plan. He had gone to the Garden yesterday night to scout. There was a blind spot in the east wall. Thirty seconds every hour when the cameras moved. Guards who took cigarette breaks at certain times. I listened carefully, memorizing every detail. Lucas kept his eyes on the dark road ahead, his hands tight on the wheel. The car hummed low, cutting through the night like a knife. M

    Camilla The next two days were the strangest I had ever lived. I woke up each morning with Dylan's face in my head. The way his eyes went wide. The blood blooming on his chest like a dark flower. But by the time I finished my coffee, the image had faded to the edges. Planning the party helped

    Camilla I found Lucas in the study.He was standing at the window with a glass of something amber in his hand, looking out at the garden. The lamp on the desk was on. Papers were spread across the surface. He hadn't heard me come in, or if he had, he didn't show it.I knocked on the open door anyw

    Lucas The warehouse felt free now that the screaming had stopped. I stood over Dylan's body and watched the blood pool wider. His eyes were still open, staring at nothing. I had seen that look before. But never on a man who died because my father's wife lost her mind and elbowed her way into a b

    Camilla Nobody move," Dylan said. His breath was hot against my ear. "Or your boss's pretty wife gets her brains all over this ugly floor."Lucas froze. Elijah, who had been reaching for something under his jacket, went completely still too."Dylan." Lucas's voice was low. "Let her go. Now. And I'
