FLAMESI JUTTED OUT MY CHIN AT Blaze telling him to do whatever the fuck he wanted to the punk kneeling on the tarmac who was scared as shit with his hands tied to the back.I knew I didn’t like Ethan fucking Townsend when I saw him at that party, a couple of tweaks here and there and surprise surprise, he was Booger Eddie’s best friend.Getting that voicemail was as easy as piecing a gun back together, tracing him back to my house at ten fucking pm however was something I hadn’t anticipated.Calling Carl was helpless, calling the house too was useless, so imagine my surprise when I pulled up the camera feeds of my house watching Mia-through night vision lens-sneaking her little ass past the kitchen and tiptoeing across the garden where Townsend was waiting for her.I was with Blaze at the moment, having a couple of drinks. With a five-minute head start, a few shortcuts and we were able to cut the bastard off the road before he even did some stupid shit with Mia.I opened the driver’s

FLAMES‘PASS ME THE SALT’, she stretched out her hand in my direction and instead I handed her the melted butter in a bottle.At this fucking rate, we might as well have been eating salt and less meat.If she seasoned the damn patties with more salt, I would lose it like I did with Carl. The butter behind me sizzled and I turned around placing each bacon strip in the pan before adding the vodka sauce that had more vodka and less fucking sauce.She would love it.“You are obsessed with control, aren’t you?”She asked behind me, I didn’t have to turn around to know she’d figured out I gave her butter and not salt.“When it comes to your health? Yes, I am, Tonelli”Yes, I fucking was.“They need more salt”“it’s done, no more seasoning”, I grunted flipping the strips with the pair of tongs in my hand.Her perfume, the smell of bacon and fruits lingering in the air, now this was what breakfast should have looked like.Better yet I would have paid for anything just to wake up next to her.

MIA“HE DID NOT!”Their eyes were on me and not even my lack of sight could hide the blush and embarrassment that tinted my cheeks.“He did? Now that is just adorable”, Molly gushed, I dug my nails into the satin dress I was holding.“I thought of it as more of disgusting than adorable”, I spoke, pushing what happened in the morning to the back of my mind.“Me and you both, Mia. Me and you both. I just never pictured Ale and tampons in a sentence let alone in a scenario and the fact that he is my brother makes it more gross”Another dress flew to my face, I pulled it away stacking it to the other bunch of dresses hung on my arm.“Say what you will but Alessandro has fallen hard for her and who would have thought? I mean he was hot when we were kids but he seemed like the type that would never settle down or fall for anyone”Despite Molly’s gushiness over the tampon situation, I felt like butting in and saying he wasn’t in love with me. He’d never love anyone as much as he did my siste

MIA“AI MAMA, WORK IT”I pouted my lips, swept my hair out of the way blowing a kiss in Lucy’s direction.“You are doing great”, Issa hurrahed, I laughed feeling the two-piece bikini on me up my confidence.If you would have told me this was what we would be doing on a sleepover, I wouldn’t have believed it.Me trying out every bikini Lucy had designed for her pop-up business, the girls cheering me on like I had a killer body which exactly wasn’t the case.I had scars, healing ones but still even with the makeup hiding them someone was bound to notice and that’s the fucking thing, I didn’t care.I loved this. Being comfortable in my own skin and having friends who liked me just as much as I liked them.“Okay take five”, Lucy shouted. I stopped posing taking three steps to the right where the ottoman was. And on top of the ottoman was the loose cover I picked up covering myself with it.It took a minute before I felt Molly’s hand on my wrist guiding me to the floor where the other ladi

MIAI WANT YOUR TUMMY SWELLED UP WITH MY KIDHIS words washed over me like a tidal wave. I wanted that too and I wanted what was happening too but at the back of my mind, the insecurities crept in.My situation was temporary but what if it turned permanent.What if I was blind forever and I never got to look at my kids…ever. Never got to brush their hair away and gaze into their little eyes wondering just who they looked like. Me or Andro?Tears welled my eyes but I didn’t cry.No, instead I held a brave face, I let everything I craved for this man take over.He kissed my lips tenderly before he made his way down my cheek, my jaw, my neck, every kiss, every feel of his teeth sink into my skin adding to my high of delirium and passion.The dress I wore specifically to tease him today rode up my thighs and Andro’s fingers sunk into them imbuing me with flames that licked my insides and out and left me a writhing mess.My fingers found his head and I sunk into his hair remembering, lovin
