The next day Brice leaves my apartment just after breakfast saying that he has a meeting with his agent, then Gemma waltz into my apartment just seconds after him, her face didn't look so friendly."So, just like that...you're back with him?""Gemma, please don't do this..." I know she was not pleased that I took him back so easily."What caring for you? looking out for you? what if he decides to ditch you again? for god's sake Ella, you're not even a stalker, you're just a fan, a very devoted fan maybe. But you don't follow him around and wait for him in some dingy corner." Gemma stared at me in frustration making me feel bad."It's his past Gemma, I told you,""I know, but what I'm trying to say is be careful.""I will."She sighed knowing there's nothing that would change my decision about Brice. Maybe I was a fool, hell...maybe I'm such a masochist for his love."Promised?" she raised her pinky like we were back in elementary, keeping each other's crush a secret."Promised." I smi
"Hey,"It was just after five when he knocked on my door. Benji and Jacqueline didn't come by that day, and Gemma was doing overtime at work. His timing couldn't be better as I was feeling lonely after I got back from the gallery."Hmm...I've missed you," I wrapped my hands to the back of his neck and pulled him inside my apartment.The playful little kisses turn hot in seconds, we haven't done much intimate stuff since we get back together. His arm was still hurt and I was still taking everything slow.But looking at him made me realize how much I've missed him. I was feeling his kisses, returning the same vigor towards him, moaning his name, and shamelessly pressed my body flat to his and directed him towards my bedroom. My new bedroom without any of his drawings, not even his books. The thought of that made my chest heave which he mistakenly thought for being horny.Meh..."God, you're so sexy, baby." His healthy hand slipped under my blouse and took off my top. My pants followed w
"...what? no, Grady! I'm just going to Player. Look, it's before opening hours for a couple of hours max, I'll be home around seven or eight. It's just going to be the four of us.""Or nine, or ten, Ella...it hasn't even been a week since you got back from the hospital." Grady sounded irritated more than upset with me, he has always been the perfect son. Everyone has to follow his reasoning, if not then he would step down from his pedestal and fix everything and every one to his liking.It was then when I realized that my supposedly fun brother Percy rat me out to my overprotective brother Grady, saying that I was going out for drinks. Grady was scolding me, telling me that I should still get some rest since I hit my head pretty hard last time.But I was not budging, and he took a deep sighed and muttered in annoyance. "Me and Percy will pick you up, nope..." he cuts my words when I was about to object. "You should think about that before you set your drink date with your friends, whe
We arrived at Player in forty minutes, Shane greeted us just after he finish talking to one of his guys."Hey, didn't expect you for another hour, thirsty already?" Shane's smile widens as he strode to kiss his wife then lead us straight to the VVIP lounge."Dude!" Brenton gave the guy his manly hug complete with the backslap, Trisha said that they're best friends and she's usually their third wheel. Devon snorted a laugh, while Bree was already looking at the menu as if Trish was going to quiz her on it.Ten minutes later various finger foods and glasses decorated the table, I kept on munching their chicken wings while drinking their fruity cocktails, different names for each glass."You're making this a cocktail tasting table?" Trisha laughed at two different glasses I've consumed eagerly. Brenton was busy talking to Shane, while Dave was giggling with Bree."I told the waiter to add more fruity mix, keep the alcohol to a minimum, it's just been a while for me," I shrugged and get m
Jacqueline's POV"Hey, hold the elevator please," I was pacing my steps, gathering my evening gown lifting it a bit, not wanting to trip on it."Thank you." I plastered my sweetest smile at him, then to the other brother."Your date is downstairs?""Grady right?" I asked not sure about who's who, they're identical twins, almost look the same but I remembered Grady is a bit taller, and slightly built than his brother."And you're Percy," I said winking at the other handsome man before me."And you're Jacqueline, we've met. Sorry about my brother he has a lot on his mind right now." Percy swept his eyes over me, leaving me feeling warm and fuzzy on the inside. He felt safe, while to my other side Grady's stare made me hot all over."Well, see you around then, my date is here," I winked at them as I exit the elevator when we reach the ground floor. I could hear the growl leaving Grady's mouth and it made me bite my lip, but I didn't look back, I kept on walking to the lobby then stepped
Brice's POVIt was late in the afternoon when I reach her place. I went to hers, after taking a quick shower, and changed to a pair of jeans, a casual denim shirt, and my favorite sneakers."Hey," I kissed and pulled her in for a hug. Damn...missed her so fucking much."Hmm...you smell nice,""I took a quick shower at mine,""So, how's the trip?""Boring, lots of technical terms, I'll need Clara's input. I'm sure she wants this, but honestly, I don't know if I want it.""Yeah, why so? it's a big opportunity for you." Ella looked beautiful in her simple summer dress.She was in the kitchen while I watched as she moves, casually making coffee for both of us. I still couldn't believe the stage she was in when she was in the hospital.Ella was the main factor why I was reluctant in signing the movie deal. Deep down I know I love her, so much that I'd give anything for her and keep her safe from harm."Brice?" she asked when I didn't answer."Sorry, it's been a long flight, I think I'm sti
"You sure, you want to do this tonight?" I sipped the room-temperature coffee and looked at my still naked honey bun bun, lazily.Too many orgasms can do that to you, not that I was complaining but I seriously need a pause button to recuperate. But the Energizer Bunny to my side seems very eager to meet my brothers, many orgasms later.Clearly, he was curious about their ability to catch his stalker and put an end to his unsolved case.If there's still a stalker."Yes, tonight, then we'll go back to my place and we'll continue our interrupted intimate time. It has been too long, baby." He put my empty cup and kiss the top of my damp hair, while my mind just went straight to the gutter and he chuckle clearly seeing my longing hopeful look."Let's take a quick shower and get dressed, then you call your brothers,""Just shower?""Oh, Ella, you're insatiable, no...with you it's never going to be just...we're making up for the lost time."I gasped when he took me to his shoulder and smacke
Brice's POV"So you're in love, engaged with the woman from your fan group. Seriously Brice? after pulling strings, owing favors to bury the issue about your stalker, and keeping your personal life in peace, now you're going to dig it up again?"Clara my lovely agent was extremely pissed that morning when I was at her office and informed her about Ella and the whole circus entailed proceeding with me asking her to marry me."...and are you telling me this just now? in the middle of your career-changing, life-altering decision?"She was talking about my indecisiveness towards the movie deal."Don't spite me like I'm a goddamn kid Clara, I love her and I'm not losing her for some damn stalker. Her brothers are helping me with finding the person at fault for Summer's death. I'm just telling you because I considered you as a friend, I thought you'd be happy." I was ready to leave her office, my anger boiling on the inside."Shit, Brice. I'm sorry, don't make me feel like I'm just milking
