The Mafia's Wanted Desires. 9
JAXONHave you ever had to look at someone for so long, in the eyes, and then feel this unfamiliar sense of contentment, peace and a subtle wave of calmness wash over you? Evoking and inciting such powerful emotions that you have managed to bury deep down inside of you, bolting the door on it.It was strange.So uncomfortable, yet I found myself wanting it.It was different but in a good way.I have met gorgeous women. Heck, I have had my fair share of them, but then, I have walked this earth for nearly thirty years, and never have I had to see a woman that completely knocked the breath out of me, rendering me overly speechless. I was a man of action. I do not stutter. I do not get to be at a loss for words. What was going on with me? I was the devil in human form. I was ruthless. I had no heart, but what was this thing that kept pricking at my heart, tugging at its strings?I came to the lounge in the hope of some alone time, some time to myself. I could use some reflection. Then, I

JaxonFor as long as I could remember, I have always underrated fictional movies and books, but this right here changed my opinion about it. It's been stated that a kiss with someone you feel connected to, makes you feel like you are floating in the air. Like you were on top of the world.Fireworks, goosebumps, and butterflies.They erupted in the pit of my stomach, blowing up and wreaking havoc in me from within.Her lips moved so slowly against mine, allowing me to taste the vodka on them. My hands moved up and down her back, my skin prickling with goosebumps. She tugged at my lips softly, nibbling on my lower lip and a soft moan escaped her lips, eliciting a low grunt from me.I couldn't comprehend how just a sound from her could leave me this hard.Her hands moved up to my neck and she placed a palm on my nape. Her fingers found their way into my hair, grazing my scalp. I hoisted her up and she wrapped her legs around me, while I moved us away from the desk to a comfortable surfac

ASHLEYA dull ache settled into the corner of my head, and then, it began pounding heavily, causing me to groan. I turned, snuggling further into my pillow and soft snores emitted from my lips. I tried to open my eyes, but I was failing miserably at it. My eyes wouldn't stop snapping shut. The moment they fluttered open, I struggled to keep it that way. The first thing I could make out through my hazy sight was the white walls of the room, the rays of sunlight shooting directly into my eyes, eliciting an internal wince from me. I didn't know how long I laid down, trying to recall where I was and how I got here. My brain was blank. I couldn't come up with anything.I exhaled and my eyes glazed over to the masculine frame beside me. The seductive smell of a cologne along the line of citrus and berries assaulted my nostrils, rendering me dizzy with the feeling of satisfaction that washed over me.It was soft, but I could smell it everywhere. That was what the room smelled like. Every si

JAXONA peaceful sleep.Something I haven't had in years.Heck, I have barely slept in months and yet, all it took was to be in the arms of the strange woman I met yesternight. It kept my demons and restlessness at bay. It tamed them, almost like they never even existed. This was the longest I have been in bed for. I could not even remember the last time I slept in my bedroom.I had stuck to sleeping in my study for as long as I could remember.I finally turned in my sleep, my hands gliding back and forth on the space beside me. A deep frown soon settled on my face and my eyes snapped open, dropping to the space. I sat up, my eyes wandering around the whole room in search of a certain brunette.My heart fell to the pit of my stomach when she was nowhere to be found. Sadness overwhelmed me, eliciting a soft exhale from me. I knew without a doubt that I had grown helplessly attached to her presence. To her. The only smell I could make was the honey extract that dominated her scent. It d

ASHLEYRunning.That was what I was going to do. That was what I had resorted to. I meant that I was going to run in literal terms. I was going to dabble in distractions, things that took my mind off the recent disaster. I was done wallowing in sadness, and if all I had to do was wear a mask over my actual self if that was what it would take to suppress the pain. To suppress self-loathing. The self-disgust.Then, I'd do it.After all, that was one thing I was good at doing. Hiding underneath the shell, the perfect shell I have painted for the world to look at. The perfect facade. The one I have worn for years. I was going to hide till it all went away. A big part of me was still hoping it was some dream that I so desperately wanted to wake up from.What was the perfect definition of a distraction?Work.I was going to go to work after two weeks of crying my eyes out. After two weeks of shutting my friends out, Dawn and Ivanna have been blowing up my phone with calls, but I wasn't i

JAXON"You think you can run from me?" I questioned, the guards pushed the iron bars open and I stepped into the dark room. I snapped my fingers once, giving them the instruction to switch the lights on, and they did.The bloody and heavily bruised young man was hung upside down, without clothes on. He was sweating profusely and dangling from the ceiling they hung him on, his body was covered in cuts and blood gushed out of the open cuts. I saw the terror and sheer horror that flashed across his eyes, the moment he saw me walk in. He was wheezing heavily, trying to pry his way out of his chains.And, he was failing miserably while he was at it.I chuckled and took my cufflinks off the cuffs of my shirt, handing it to one of my guys that stood outside the gates. Then, I rolled the sleeves of my shirt to my elbow, undoing the upper buttons of my shirt. I hated the feeling of one's blood on my clothes, so to prevent the blood from staining my clothes, I always rolled the sleeves up and t

ASHLEYI was slouched against my chair, which was opposite the reading table that was in my room. I was dozing and jerking my head off. Then, I jolted upright like I had been doing for the past few hours. I tucked away a stray strand of my hair that I had tied in a messy bun earlier, and I removed my glasses, wiping the dirt off, and then I wore them back.I shook my head lightly and continued typing, determined not to fall asleep. I had to finish drafting Genevieve's meeting schedule for the month. If I didn't, I might actually get fired this time around and I wouldn't want to do anything to get on her bad side anymore.Not again. At least.My phone sounded with a loud ding, a hint that a message had just popped up on my screen. I halted what I was doing and picked up my phone, then I saw a message from Dawn.DawnieWe are coming in!I furrowed my brows and got up from my chair, ambling to my living room where I found my door wide open with Dawn and Ivana snuggled up against each oth

ASHLEYI had been awake for the past twenty minutes, my duvet draped over my unclad body. I had tossed and turned in my sleep countless times, at night, unable to get any ounce of sleep, because I had been so nervous. And, during my restlessness, I had taken my nightie off because I felt hot everywhere.Throughout the girl's day out I had with Dawn and Ivana, my mind was elsewhere. The girls could tell. I couldn't stop thinking about Adam. But, it was only when pigs flew that I would tell my friends the reason I wasn't participating in what was supposed to be a hangout. I couldn't stop thinking about what he said. He sounded so broken over the phone. Like he really missed me… I missed him too.A lot.So much.I missed him. I missed his smile. I missed the way his eyes lit up whenever I walked to wherever he was. I missed the way my heart skipped around him. I miss the way he touches me and makes me feel. I longed for him, and the comfort his warm embraces had to offer.Adam was a gr
