I felt his…

Lillian hurried to the top of the stairs and slammed the bedroom door behind her. Her chest was rising and falling rapidly. She locked the door and pressed her back against it, sliding down until she sat on the floor with her knees to her chest.The image burnt behind her eyelids. Giorgio's lifeless eyes stared at the ceiling, and Alex standing over him looked calm and calculating.Her hands shook as she buried her face in them. The man whom she thought was a changed man. Whom she felt safe with just murdered someone.Tears rolled down her cheeks, soaking her palms. She had known Alex to be dangerous. From the moment they met: his ammunition, his bodyguards and the call.“Clean it up,” Alex ordered his men and went into the mansion. Life is going on as if nothing had happened.But everything had changed.A soft knock at the door made her flinch."Lillian." Alex's voice called out."Open the door."No.There was silence in the room. Then the knob rattled gently, testing the lock. He co

The first passionate kiss

Their lips pressed against each other for a moment, and Alex’s hands caressed Lillian’s waist. His cock became very hard, and she felt it in between her thighs.It felt so good that she didn't want to stop. She realised at that moment that she wanted every nig of him so bad, but when she remembered his deeds tonight, she pulled back in shock.What? Why did he kiss me? Does he feel anything for me?Alex's hands still rested on her waist, not letting her go. He stares deeply into her eyes as she is taken aback. Lillian’s mind started running with a lot of thoughts, but then she immediately pressed her lips back into his.His lips felt soft and smooth as she caressed them with her tongue, and Alex reciprocated. At first the kiss was soft, then he moved his hand to her hips and pulled her closer, deepening the kiss.Lillian had no idea what to do with her hands; meanwhile, Alex moved like a professional. He moved like he wanted her. She moved her hands up to his chest and felt his musc

Another kiss

Lillian’s POV:I woke up this morning when the morning sun rays through the light curtain of the hotel rested on my face. My head throbbed lightly when I remembered the incident of yesterday.The kids are with me and Alex. I sat upright with my eyes wide open and filled with embarrassment. How did that happen?One moment, we were standing close to each other, and the next minute, we were caressing each other like never before.Alex’s lips were on mine. It was warm and cold at the same time. This was supposed to be a contract. I was supposed to be his worker, but now everything seems to be changing.I remembered that I had to go downstairs for breakfast, and I was filled with regret. I couldn't face him. Not yet…I dragged myself out of bed, and I glanced at the clock. It was still early, but I needed to do something to distract myself.Packing? Yes, that would help. I pulled my suitcase from the corner and unzipped it. Clothes tumbled out in a heap. Many more dresses for dinners, jean

44… The confession

Lillian’s POV:I stood in front of Jessie’s apartment door and pressed the doorbell. My chest felt tight, and my stomach growled. Coming here was supposed to calm me, but I still felt nervous as if Alex were here with me. I rang the doorbell again, and the door opened instantly. “Lillian!” Justin said, his face lighting up. Before I could say anything, he wrapped his arms around me in a tight hug. I laughed softly. “Hey, Justin,” I said, hugging him back. “I missed you so much.”“You were gone forever,” he said, pulling away and looking at me. I smiled. “Of course I did. I had work in Paris. And guess what? I brought something for you,” I said. That seemed to satisfy him, and he stepped aside and let me into the apartment. I could perceive the scent of spices and freshly cooked meat. “Lillian?” Jessie said as she walked out of the kitchen. I barely had time to respond before she appeared. She wiped her hands on the kitchen towel. “It's so good to see you,” she said, wrapping

Chapter 45

THE CONFESSIONThe word slipped out of Lilian’s mouth and fell into the room like a broken glass. Jessie looked at her in disbelief. Everywhere went silent immediately. They were seated beside each other facing the television. Lillian nodded her head, “Yes, Jessie. I kissed Alex.”Jessie froze.Not in a calm way. Her eyes widened in disbelief at first, then her lips parted as if she wanted to laugh it off. To say Lillian was joking, but she had always seen it coming. Jessie waited for Lillian to tell her it was a lie. But Lilian said nothing else. Her silence confirmed everything.Jessie stood up so fast from the chair, “You… what?” Jessie asked slowly.Lilian swallowed and inhaled deeply. “We kissed.”Jessie stared at her as if she were looking at a stranger. She couldn’t believe that Lillian would do such a thing so soon. "Wow," Jessie exclaimed. “Just wow, Lillian.”“It wasn’t planned,” Lilian rushed to speak up. “I didn’t go looking for it. It just happened."“Stop.” Jessie li

Chapter 46

Lillian’s POV:I slept, and when I woke up in the morning, the bright rays of sunshine filtered through the light curtains, falling softly across my face. It's been a week since I last heard from Jessie. For some time, I just lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling. It felt strange. too quiet. My body was rested, but my mind wasn’t. It never truly rested.The first thing I did was reach for my phone on the table. Jessie.I had been visiting, but I only spent time with Jake. She had not spoken to me, which made me very uncomfortable.I searched for her name, and my chest tightened. I had this sudden urge to hear her speak to me once more. We have been best friends since our first day in school when we were both 3 years old. 6:00 a.m.I exhaled slowly. It's too early to call Jessie. She would probably still be asleep and groan when anyone disturbs her sleep. I rolled out of bed and walked to the mirror with my bare feet. My face looked calm, but my eyes were still heavy. They felt em
