Chapter 27: Overhearing
Kendra’s P.O.V:
When I woke up the next morning, Victor wasn’t in bed with me, but there was a note stuck to the pillows that said he’d gone to his office to report his arrival and to take up any necessary assignments if there were any. But he’d also left a post script saying that he wanted to have dinner with me.
For once in a long while, I didn’t want to bolt out the door as soon as the coast was clear. I felt relaxed and satisfied and sore in all the right places, but I guess that’s the side-effect of getting my act together. I haven’t been with a partner in over six months and even I have to agree that going seven rounds all in one night was a bit too much.
Stretching my arms above my head, I rose from the bed butt naked and went straight for the shower. Since I’d taken home all the spare clothing I had in this apartment, I have to make a quick tr

Chapter 28: Spiral DownKendra’s P.O.V:“Miss, I’m sorry but I can’t give you any more alcohol.”I lifted my head with much difficulty and gave the bartender a stern glare. “Whatta meen yoo cunt?”Did I just say cunt? Maybe? Who knows?I tried to look around, but my head felt too heavy. Where was I? Why did my head feel so weird? I don’t know what this feeling was, but I need more of it. This was good.“Miss? Miss, are you alright?” The new bartender asked. I wish it were Josh...He’d have given me more alcohol.“Miss, do you need me to call you a cab?” The bartender was saying.Suddenly, thousands of voices mixed in my head. The people talking all around me, the bartender screaming in my ears and laughing...so many people laughing. Laughing at me.“Shut up!” I yelled. “All of you! Shut up!&rdq

Chapter 29: A Helping HandKendra’s P.O.V:I felt the start of a massive headache even before my mind was fully conscious. Slowly, I willed my heavy eyelids to open, but it took an hour, or at least it felt like a good hour, before I could open them.The room wasn’t flooded with light like my room usually is in the morning; in fact, it was all in a dark shade of green. That’s when I realized that I wasn’t in my room. I instantly wanted to get the hell away from this place and never look back as I run for dear life. I didn’t want to know who I was with last night and if we even ended up doing anything.But as soon as I sat up, my vision went blank and when I opened them again after a short period, I was staring up at the ceiling. I groaned. Why did I have to be dead drunk before I decided to go home with someone? Am I even with somebody or did the cops just ditch me at a whorehouse? Nah! I was

Chapter 30: Worried about YouKendra’s P.O.V:It was late in the afternoon when I finally made my way home. I had taken a shower and changed into one of Grace’s spare jeans and tees at the club and then Daniel had driven me to the hospital to get a thorough check up. The results had been quite alarming.Due to excess alcohol consumption in the past few months, my liver has shown a very small amount of enlargement and now the doctor has told to strictly stay away from alcohol for the next six months and eat a hell lot of healthy shit until my liver goes back to its original shape. And not to mention a bunch of medications that I’ll have to take twice a day. I hadn’t realized how bad my condition had gotten until now. And to make matters worse, my head was still hurting and I felt like crap; pretty sure I looked like crap too since I didn’t have any makeup on me.But when I reached my apartment

Chapter 31: Don't Hold BackKendra’s P.O.V:When I woke up, it was already dark outside and someone had closed all the windows to keep the chilly night air out of the room. At first I was a bit alarmed as to who could have done that, but then I remembered how I’d asked Victor to take me inside and how I’d fallen asleep right after he’d placed me on the bed and my heart eased a bit.One of my bedside table lamps were on so I turned on the second one as well so I could see everything around the room. What I instantly noticed however, was that the entire house smelled of cheese and bacon and that I was no longer in the clothes that I’d worn when I’d returned home. Victor must have changed me while I was sleeping, which was fine by me since I was wearing proper underwear and it would’ve been incredibly uncomfortable to sleep with skinny jeans on. But that doesn’t mean I’m letting

Chapter 32: RealizationKendra’s P.O.V:Victor stared at me for a good few seconds, looking unsure at first, but then I saw a storm cloud his beautiful green eyes and he was hauling me to him with his hands possessively around my neck and his lips were claiming mine with a fierceness that I’d never felt before.My lips felt tender and swollen by the time he left us up for air, but I pulled him back in for another kiss before he could pull back. This one was just as fierce, just as passionate and I knew that Victor was no longer holding back. He was letting me feel all his anger, all his pain and all his want. And it made my chest ache to have this in my life forever.But that thought was gone just as soon as it had formed as Victor used his hands to cup my breast over the silk of my night shirt. I sucked in a breath and it gave him the opportunity to thrust his tongue inside my mouth and taste every nook and c

Chapter 33: Trouble in ParadiseGrace’s P.O.VAs soon as the cab dropped me in front ofCasa Dolce Casa, Daniel’s hotel and our home, I all but ran up the stairs, the doorman, Philip, opening the door just a second before I collided with it and into the lobby, making a beeline for the private elevators while the hotel staff shook their heads at me with knowing smiles and the guests gave me confused and amused looks.As soon as I got into the elevator, I pressed the button for the penthouse apartment, waving a quick ‘hi’ to Zach and Dylan, two of the bouncers at Hell Hole, the nightclub that Daniel owned and his friends. I tapped my foot lightly on the floor, impatiently waiting for the doors to open to my floor so I could go and kiss the sense out of the love of my life. I know it’s only been two days since I went to a conference with the rest of my team at my office, but it sure felt

Chapter 34: The First StepKendra’s P.O.V:When I first entered Daniel’s and Grace’s home, I did not expect things to get this awkward, but for some reason, it was.Ty was here as well and Victor had gone back to his apartment this morning to freshen up so that no one finds out that we’ve been spending our nights together, so we had arrived at different times. But as soon as we’d all sat down at the table to discuss wedding details, an enormous awkwardness had spread over the room.I get that me and Victor had a reason to be awkward in public, since Grace didn’t know that I was screwing her brother and Daniel did...but even Grace seemed to stare at everyone awkwardly. Or maybe it was just the nerves?We were all seated at the humongous dining table, wine glasses in hand and a bunch of catalogues in front of us, trying to help the to-be-wed couple decide the venue, pick flower arr

Chapter 35: Caught in a LandslideKendra’s P.O.V:“Thanks for coming with me,” I told Daniel as we walked side by side, out of the Doc’s cabin.When I’d first arrived for my appointment, which Daniel had so generously made, my hands had been trembling, I was sweating like a pig and feeling like I would pass out at any instant from an anxiety attack. My first instinct had been to call Grace and spill the beans and beg her to come with me to the therapist so I could have some mental support. But it had been Daniel who’d picked up the phone, telling me that Grace had a bad headache so he was letting her sleep in. So, I begged Daniel to come instead.Surprisingly, he’d shown up within twenty minutes, looking tired and worried and he’d held onto my hand when I’d first entered the Doctor’s cabin. After the preliminary round of questions, I’d been able to relax en
