OLIVIAThree days.I hadn’t seen Axel since the last time he dropped Alix off. He didn’t bother to even call or text. And I was getting worried.The encounter between him, Darren, and Rosa had been unexpected. There was so much tension between them, and I knew something was amiss.I’d never seen Axel’s eyes flash with anger like that. What was more frustrating was the fact that he’d left quietly without a word to me. And I grew scared that he might actually be done with me.Darren and I were back on track. Celyn stayed in one of the guest rooms, and while I didn’t want her close to Alix, she was great with him.He could be crying and she’d do her magic. Seconds later, he’d be sleeping in her arms. I’d seen it a few times in the last few days.“Aren’t you done with your meeting?”I’d drifted away from reality until Darren’s voice jolted me back. I sat in the council room, where they’d said something about a ship that sank.I didn’t pay much attention. Matteo had to cover as usual. It

Back to him.

OLIVIA“Ma’am?”A voice filtered into my ears, forcing my eyes open. My head was resting on a hard surface, and the whole place reeked of stale sweat and alcohol.“W-who are you? ”I croaked.A young blonde girl. She wore a white T-shirt and a black pinafore dress over it. Her hair was packed in a rough ponytail, and her eyes stared at me like I was a stray person.“You’ve been here for the past four hours,” she said softly. “We’re about to close.”“Close?” The word sounded foreign to my ears. I yawned, stretching my arms out.She sighed frustratingly. “You need to leave, Ma’am. You’ve had too much to drink, and we’re done packing up. Till tomorrow.”I recalled getting into my car and driving off in anger. Darren had yelled and tried to get me to stop, but I was too enraged to do anything.I’d driven far away from the estate. And far enough for him to find me easily. The bar was buzzing, and people trooped in and out when I saw it.So I decided to drive in, which was totally a bad idea

Her protector.

AXEL SALVATORE ROSSI.“Darren…”That was the last thing she said before collapsing into my arms. My heart raced at the sight of her—drunk, giggling, and… crying.I’d never seen her like this before.I had no idea she’d started consuming alcohol.“Olivia?”I called, shaking her in hopes she’d wake up. But she didn’t. She’d passed out, and her body reeked from the alcohol she’d consumed.It wasn’t an entirely messy sight. Aside from the tears that had made my chest tighten in anger, her sweet scent of vanilla still barged into my nostrils.And I knew the alcohol would taste sweeter on her lips.Carrying her over my shoulder wasn’t a hassle. She was as light as a feather and barely felt like she was even there.I turned to Rosa, curious to know what had happened. “Did she come here alone?”She nodded. “I have no idea. I was heading out of the kitchen when she walked in like this.”I was in the council room drinking when I heard someone pull up at the gates. I thought it was strange to re

He did something.

OLIVIAI forced my eyes open in the dimly lit room. There was a figure sitting in a chair next to me, humming and holding my hand gently.At first, my heart raced at the thought of waking up in a stranger's room after an awful incident, which I actually didn’t remember. But when the voice whispered my name, I realized it was Rosa.“Olivia,” she murmured, pushing her body forward. “I thought you’d passed out until morning."Passed out? I squinted my eyes, my forehead throbbing with an awful migraine that threatened to split my head into two halves.It was unbearable.“What happened?” I inquired as she helped me sit upright. “How did I get here?”“You don’t remember anything?”I shook my head. The only thing I remembered was getting into an argument with Darren, then storming out of the house in anger.“You were dead drunk when you came here,” she continued. “And from the look of things, you’re still half-drunk.”She was right about me being half-drunk. My vision still appeared a bit b

Unexplainable lie.

OLIVIAThat sounded bad. Too bad.My lips parted into a whisper. “What?”Axel stepped closer, trying to reach for me as I shook my head vehemently, tears brimming in my eyes.“I had to do something,” he defended, making gestures with his hands as he spoke. “He was cheating on you.”My eyes widened. Where did that information come from? Where did he hear that? I scoffed. “Cheating on me? You’ve got it all wrong, and even if you were right… You had no right to do anything.”He refused to accept what I was saying. I thought he’d had remorse flashing across his eyes for going over the edge with his actions, but only something bland was etched there.My heart raced at the thoughts of Darren getting shot. What if it was serious? What if he didn’t survive it?“I saw the text,” he persisted, his voice deeper than ever. “And he didn’t deny it when I confronted him. You don’t have to make up excuses for him, Olivia.”“He didn’t do anything bad!”“Then why did you come here?” He snapped, his ey

Back to him.

AXEL SALVATORE ROSSI.My eyes narrowed. “What?”Olivia batted her eyelashes, her cheeks flushing in embarrassment. She averted her gaze, and her lips trembled as she muttered.“It sounds embarrassing,” she said. “I can’t believe I’m even saying this out loud. Or even telling you at all.”It wasn’t something new. Or something I didn’t already know. From the first day I showed up at her anniversary gala, I could tell what her body lacked from a single touch.I just didn’t know that it was this bad.Getting drunk? Storming out of the house and getting somewhere else when it was past midnight? Crying?She was really going through it.And the fucking bastard, Darren, didn’t deny the cheating accusations when I’d accused him of it.Maybe he really was cheating. She didn’t know it yet.I burst out laughing—couldn’t control it. The words made me cackle for some reason, and she flashed me a stern look at the sound of my taunting laughter.Her eyebrows furrowed. “Why are you laughing?”My head

Reclaiming her.

AXEL SALVATORE ROSSII didn’t wait for her to think. I didn’t give her time to say anything. I reached for her, claiming her lips with mine while my hands held her tightly around her waist.Hunger burned inside me. The hunger to have her. To taste her. To feel her. And I gave in to that hunger… without letting it consume me completely.Her breaths rasped. Her hair lingered in the air confusingly before flying to wrap around my neck.She hadn’t taken her clothes off. My hands moved everywhere, squeezing every part of her body through the restraining fabric.Olivia tried to push me away, but I pinned her in place, shutting her off with my lips tightly tasting hers. Panting hard, she moaned my name inside my mouth.“Axel…”I said nothing. My tongue moved through my lips and parted hers open, tasting the warmth of her mouth. The taste of alcohol on her tongue was sweeter and better than I’d imagined.And her heavenly scent of vanilla wafted through my nostrils, increasing my urges.In the

It’s happening.

OLIVIAI almost forgot how good sex was with Axel. I slept off the second we were done. And for the record, I reached climax twice.Twice!Yet Darren made it a struggle to do anything properly. I was tipsy, so the alcohol wasn’t the problem like I’d always blamed. Even with the migraine I had, everything was good.Fucking good.By morning… At about seven thirty-three a.m., I’d woken up and was getting ready to leave when Axel walked in.I couldn’t remember what happened after I slept off. Maybe he had a meeting at midnight? Went out for some fresh air?I don’t know. I was too tired to pay attention.“You’re leaving?”That was the first question he asked when he saw me putting on my jacket. My clothes were scattered on the floor, and I literally had to search around for my panties after he’d snatched them off.“Good morning.” I responded.I grabbed my purse from the bed and glanced at my phone screen. The missed calls and text messages from Darren were a crazy number.207 in total. Wh

She rules.

OLIVIAI was surprised to see Isabella standing there, eyes flashing with a mix of surprise and anger, like she hadn’t kicked me into the streets two years ago.“You again?” Her teeth gritted as she shot Axel, who was still holding my wrist, a cold glare. “What are you doing with my sister?”Okay. This was really complicated, and things were going to escalate. I just knew for sure.Celyn cradled Alix in her arms, her eyes narrowing at me. I saw the way they glinted, like she held some sort of resentment towards me for kissing another man that wasn’t her brother.And Darren?He just stood there, his arm bandaged, probably from the gunshot. Our gazes locked for a moment, and I saw the disappointment in his eyes before looking away.Yet he didn’t say anything to me. Or even anything at all.“Isabella,” Axel’s voice was hoarse and laced with mockery rather than the surprise I expected. “It’s good to know that you’re still alive.”That triggered her. She stormed forward, attempting to reac

Her unexpected savior.

OLIVIA“So this is it now?” Darren asked as he stormed after me, his voice cracking. “You’re cheating on me with Axel?”I halted in my tracks, my fists clenching while I tried to release the tension in my chest. Slowly, I turned around to face him, ignoring the way his eyes glistened with tears.I inhaled deeply, not moving an inch from where I stood.“Is that supposed to be your problem?” I asked, glancing at him. “Why don’t you find something else to worry about?”Darren sneered. “You fucked him, didn’t you?” I averted my gaze when he asked that, feeling the heat rising in my cheeks. “That was why you pretended to storm out last night. It’s always been him.”“You can say whatever you want, Darren.”“He shot me!” He screeched, taking steps closer to close the gap between us as he panted heavily. “Your sweet, perfect Axel stormed into this place and pulled a gun at me.” Darren winced while moving his left hand. “Don’t you see this? Or are you pretending to be fucking blind?”I couldn’
