CHAPTER 11
Kissing Calleigh was like falling into the darkest, deepest hole. It was like going straight to hell. It was fire. Sheer fire running through him. His blood was boiling in his veins, hot like a volcano’s lava.
Gabriel placed his hand on the back of her head, his fingers twining in her beautiful hair, as he deepened the kiss. For months, he’d constantly hated and wanted Calleigh in equal measures. All he wanted was to have her once again before destroying her. He hungered for her, for her gorgeous body, for her sweet, plump lips.
Was that why finally kissing her now overwhelmed his senses more than ever before? It wasn’t just desire that had changed the kiss, Gabriel realized. It was Calleigh herself. The kiss was different because the woman he was kissing was different.

Gabriel looked at her and kissed her forehead.“Yes, querida, we’re getting married today and are going to leave happily ever after,” he confirmed quite plainly. “And we have additional good news, hermano… We’re having a baby.”“Oh…” Lorenzo said, then. “Oh… okay… Now I see…” He cleared his throat, then suddenly smiled, as if it all made sense now.“Such great news… Congratulations to you both,” he replied giving Gabriel a pack on his shoulder and smiling at the future mother.“Thanks, Lory,” Gabriel added and took Calleigh's hand in his. “We need to go now, but let’s meet soon and talk some more… Bring Phoebs too.”“Let’s talk some more at my house, on Ravaiarina Island.

From the moment Gabriel saw her in the wedding dress, so lovely and sweet with her shy, happy smile, an earthquake went through his soul. Calleigh wore a simple, modest cream-colored wedding dress, with her dark hair beneath a light veil, and she held flame-colored roses in her unmanicured hands. There was no pretense about her. Just beauty… and innocence. In the brief kiss, he gave her after they were pronounced husband and wife, his soul trembled within his body. Gabriel knew he was on a razor’s edge of seducing this beautiful woman, whose fire had once burned him so badly, but who now seemed to shine like the first spring sun after a long, gray winter. His throat choked as he pulled away from the brief kiss. Calleigh, his lying ex-mistress, his hated enemy, was now his wife. Her big blue eye

After the plane door opened and they came down the stairs, Calleigh took a deep breath. Malaga was already a magical show at night, but they had to go to Marbella by car. Gabriel’s staff and various bodyguards were waiting for him on the tarmac, along with two cars to whisk their entourage towards Marbella. They were swiftly and seamlessly escorted through customs. Within minutes, Calleigh was seated next to her husband in the back of a black limo as the chauffeur drove them to their final destination. Calleigh stared at him until Gabriel finally looked at her.“What? What is it?” he exclaimed quite bothered.“I was wondering why are you acting like this?” she asked quietly.“Like what?” Gabriel demanded.“Like a complete jackass.”&n

It wasn’t enough… Calleigh’s heart had to be broken even more… He’d been too gentle with her, Gabriel thought grimly. As he sat next to Calleigh on the short drive toward 'Nikki Beach', a very exclusive club, he ignored her angry, shallow huffs of breath beside him. He’d been tempted to tell her everything in the penthouse, but Gabriel had held back for the sake of his child in her belly. For fear the shock would cause a miscarriage. Which was a ridiculous idea, Gabriel thought now, grinding his teeth. Calleigh Swanson was too strong for that. His ex-mistress… His wife was as hard as steel. She was a force of nature. Ridiculous to worry about an emotional shock causing injury to their unborn child, when the Calleigh he’d known had no feelings whatsoever! But in due ti

With a gasp, a nearby waiter turned and scurried to grab a broom. Thalía was suddenly standing next to him. She held out a small towel. Gabriel took it.“Gracias. (Spa for ‘thank you’)”“Gabri, you’re wasting your time with her,” Thalía said quietly, nodding toward Calleigh. “You’re going to get hurt, you know that.”“You’re wrong.” Gabriel wiped the blood off his hand with the towel. The cuts were superficial.“She can’t hurt me.” While saying it, Gabriel knew he was lying. Calleigh had cut him to the bone long ago. But, his lust for her cut far deeper than any blade. Gabriel watched her across the room, dancing with her eyes closed, her arms swaying over her head. Like ev

As Gabriel felt her body tighten, he knew he couldn’t last. Touching Calleigh was pure heaven. Her skin was even softer than he remembered. She tasted sweet, so incredibly sweet. The very first time he slid inside her, he nearly lost control. With every thick thrust, he watched her full breasts sway from the force of his possession, and he gasped out each breath. How long had he wanted her? How had he denied himself for so long? With each slow thrust inside her, Gabriel shattered a little more, until he was coming apart like a castle of cards in front of the sea breeze. His whole body shook with the agony of holding himself back when all he wanted to do was bury himself in her completely, to lose himself in the ecstasy of making love to his Calleigh.

His eyes were dark as they fixed on Calleigh. It was time… “This past summer, I almost lost my business,” Gabriel said in a low voice. “A very important document was stolen from my house which suggested I might be cheating my stockholders of a great deal of money. Of course, that was a huge lie, since I wasn’t. But it cast the company’s finances in a sordid light.” Calleigh stared up at him, shocked. “Oh, God… That’s terrible! Did you find out who did it?” He looked at her, his eyes glittering. “Yes, I did.” “I’m so relieved… I hope you put them in jail! For a long, long time.” Gabriel took a sip of black coffee. “I won’t because it’s not my style.” “Okay… Still, I don’t understand what does that have to do with me…

His assistant’s voice was too well-trained to register surprise. “Investigate Mrs. De León?” “Yes. Have Johnson find out how her real father died. See if there’s any reason it might be tied to me or to my company. Tell him to let me know as soon as he finds out something.” As Gabriel hung up the phone, his gaze lingered on Calleigh, so beautiful and natural in the pink top and short cotton skirt. Instead of stiletto heels, she was exploring this city, and her new life, in flat sandals absolutely made for walking. Her bright, happy face, once so pale, was starting to tan in the Spanish sun. He’d once thought to use her amnesia against her. He’d never imagined that her innocence and warmth would affect him so damn much. Gabriel f
