MasukCamilla's POV She rose up immediately from where she sat, her belle bump had Increased by an inch and she looked dolled up. Eyes shadows and almost blended foundation. Her eyes scanned me from head to toe before clearing her throat. “I'm hoping to speak to the person who runs this place," she said. I could almost scoff at the face she was making and the tone she used. " You know, you've always been bad at being sarcastic… your lines never just. Click.” The polite smile she held stiffened slightly. "Too bad I wasn't here to speak to you about sarcasm." My fingers tapped the side of my arm. I could snap my fingers and she'll be out of her and I could also gesture my fingers and she'll be in my office. I chose the second option because as far as stealing my ex husband went, she hadn't spoken to me ever since. A few minutes later, she sat at the other side of my table, legs crossed and her face neutral. " It's funny how you fooled everyone.” She said, "I don't know ho
Camilla's POV My bed was too big for just one person but Luca's bed was enormous.His faint scent of his cologne clung to the pillows and the second I turned and inhaled it. My eyes fluttered open and I stirred, my body still humming from the night before.I stretched languidly, a small smile playing on my lips as memories immediately flooded back. His hands, his warm mouth and the way he'd claimed every inch of me. It made me blush. Sex with Nathaniel was only ever plain as Jane and never as intense as what I felt yesterday. Naked and unashamed, I slipped out of bed, grabbing his discarded white shirt from the floor and buttoning it just enough to cover the essentials.The hem brushed my thighs as she padded barefoot down the grand staircase.The smell of fresh coffee and warm pastries greeted me before I even reached the dining room where I could tell Luca was. Seated at the head of the long mahogany table. His phone in one hand and a cup of espresso in the other.He looked e
Camilla's POV I was definitely not drunk when I said what I said and he was definitely not drunk also as he crossed the threshold first. The air between us thickened with every inch he closed and my breath caught as his gaze locked on mine. His dark and hungry gaze. I could feel the heat radiating from my body as he reached me, one hand sliding to the small of my back and the other tangling in my hair. He pulled me closer and our lips crashed together in a fierce kiss that stole the air from my lungs. His mouth claimed mine and his tongue swept in with a kind of possessiveness that made my knees give way and a low moan escaped my throat. My fingers curled into his shirt, desperate for more, but he broke the kiss just enough to lift me. His strong arms hook under my thighs, spreading my legs apart as he found the nearest wall and pressed my back against it. I reached for him again while his touch sent heat waves to my body, my hands fumbling towards his belt because I needed t
Luca's POV Camilla in my words was simply a calm yet untamed force of nature. I had been with needy women, naive women, seductive women, capable women and each of them had one thing in common. They wanted me first. The lust was evident. But Camilla, I could explain hers as ‘need’. Avoiding her might just be the most childish act I have ever done in all my adult years of living. I convinced myself that I had a good reason and that she was drunk and wouldn't remember anything unlike me that lived and now breathed last night. Thoughts of her gasps for air made my pants rigid, the feeling of her skin and the warmth of her insides. The way her walls clamped around me like they never wanted me to let go. Her boobs… Fuck. I combed my fingers through my hair and sighed evenly. I was lusting over my wife. My wife meant for the convenience of our businesses. I went over towards the balcony of my wing after I called in the maids to clear up the broken vase up in my room
Camilla's POVThe first thing I noticed was warmth and the second was the absence of it. I opened my eyelids slowly, letting my sight adjust to the sunlight that spilled across the room through the half drawn curtains. And for several seconds I remained completely still before the memory hit. Luca and his big hands and his voice. I swallowed as heat flooded my cheeks. “Oh my God." I buried my face in the pillow and for a brief, horrifying moment I wondered if I had dreamt the entire thing. But then I shifted and the soreness cleared everything up immediately. Luca and I had sex. And it was the best since Nathaniel's. Not that any of the sex Nathaniel and I had were memorable. On that thought. I sat upright, clearly noticing how silent the room was, no sound from the bathroom and no movement whatsoever.A strange feeling settled in my stomach. Was I perhaps abandoned?I glanced at the table clock and it read eight-thirty in the morning. What went on last night was mutual,
Camilla's POV We didn't leave until they finalized everything and produced accurate documents where it was clear that Nathaniel would pay for extra damages.To convince the public how much we loved each other, we came out of the office by evening holding hands as we got into the car together.I felt extremely good about myself, like I had gotten the validation I needed to inwardly convince myself that I was more than what the Hartfords made me feel. Like a baby producing machine and nothing more. Though Luca hadn't said a word since we got home other than the short business calls he made every ten minutes. I took off my blazer the second I got home and unbuttoned the first buttons, kicked off my heels and strode over to the barI stood in front of the wine rack for a moment.“What do you think about a mini celebration?" Luca, who had already started to make his way upstairs, paused. I selected a bottle of red wine and reached for two glasses. Before returning back to the main s

Luca’s POVI loathed the rest of the Hartford’s. And accepting an arranged marriage from someone who could get me close enough to crush them was exactly why I was here. “Well then, I'll leave you guys to it" Elias Voss left the room quietly, the door clicking shut behind him. I had expected the
Camilla's POV The estate was exactly how I remember it.The gates opened before the car even slowed down. That was the first thing I always noticed when coming back home, how the mansion responded like it was a living thing. The drive through the grounds was long and lined with trees so old it g
Camilla's POV “Negative, Mrs Hartford" The words settled before I let them sink, once again the test results were the same as always and my wish to have a baby for my husband Nathaniel, was blown to dust, again. I blinked once “Oh," I could barely hear myself say “okay." Nodding as I readjuste
