All Chapters of It Kills Me: A Forbidden Dark Romance: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

His heavy body was on top of mine, thrusting into me with slow and purposeful strokes, his powerful arms keeping my legs pinned apart so he could take me at the angle he wanted. It had already been hard and fast in the past, but now he took a slower pace, trying to draw it out and make it last longer instead of hitting the finish line as quickly as he could.My hands worshipped his body as he did all the work. He bedded me so good it was like I’d paid for it. Everything about him was perfect, from his ripped body to the size of his package to the brightness in his gorgeous eyes.His eyes were on mine, possessive in his stare, his dick claiming a land that had been stained by lesser men. His head dipped, and he caught my lips before his tongue moved into my mouth. He kissed me as he rocked, as he ground right against my clit.“Axel.” I spoke into his mouth, right in the middle of our kiss, because it was just too much. He was so big that my arms couldn’t hook behind his shoulders to sc

I opened my laptop at the dining table and stared at the search bar.I typed it in—Alexander Moreau.But I didn’t hit enter. Something held me back. Guilt…or something.I closed the laptop instead and stared blankly at the wall, my heart still racing in my chest. Then I glanced at my phone beside me and texted him. Are you busy right now? It was eleven in the evening, so pretty late for a random text.His response was immediate. Never too busy for you, Pretty.I stared at the screen for a while, thinking about my next move. My heart was in my throat and my stomach at the same time. I could just break things off and not get into this at all. Might be the easier option. But that didn’t feel right. Can you come by?Be there in 10. I’ll bring a pizza.I’m not hungry.But you’ll be hungry in a couple hours.I highly doubted that.I sat there in my silent apartment and waited, replaying the conversation with my father over and over, picking apart his words. Axel hadn’t only been accused of

“How are we going to do this?” If I were being watched, how would we ever be together?“Don’t worry about it,” he said. “I’ll handle it.”“Are you going to jump off a helicopter and land on top of my building?”He grinned. “That’d be pretty sexy, wouldn’t it?”“I think the tire thing is sexier.”His arms wrapped around me and tugged me to his chest. “I can’t wait to watch you touch yourself.” He dipped his head and kissed my shoulder.“But really, how are we going to do this?”“I can escape my apartment without being seen. And I can smuggle you out of here.”“Sounds complicated.”“No, it’ll be fun.” He kissed me again before he left the bed and put on the clothes he’d shed.I put on something from my dresser then walked him to the door.Both of his hands dug into my hair, and he kissed me like he’d just gotten there, kissed me with more passion than any other man had ever shown me. “Goodnight, baby.”“Goodnight.” I watched him go and shut the door.Then I missed him.9AXELI sat in t

Mother looked at me for just a second before she looked away again.My father said nothing.“You can take down all my photos to erase my memory, and you can erase me from every other aspect of your life, but you can’t erase my last name. We’re family whether you like it or not. I’m your son whether you like it or not.”“If I had a son, he wouldn’t be a rapist and a wife-beater.” Now he looked at me. The first time since this meeting began.“I told you I didn’t do it.”“That’s not what the jury decided.”“The jury was wrong.”“You served two years in prison⁠—”“I. Didn’t. Do. It.” I’d said it so many times, but it was useless. There were times when it bothered me so much, I felt like giving up. Being disowned by your own father for something you didn’t even do…was a pretty shitty feeling. How could my own parents question my integrity when a woman I’d known for a month saw through the bullshit immediately? How the fuck did that make sense?“We’re done here,” my father said. “Bury us in

“You’ve only known me well for a month, but you believed me without hesitation.” My hand moved up her thigh, feeling her smooth skin, the warmth of her beautiful flesh. “I didn’t have to defend myself. I didn’t have to do anything. You just knew.” An ache throbbed inside my chest. It was warm and good, but it was so intense that it hurt. I tried to will it away with my mind, dwarf it in size by ignoring it.“I’ve never been with a man who makes me feel the way you do.”My hand stopped on her knee, and I turned to look at her.“They don’t make me feel beautiful. They don’t make me feel secure. They don’t make me smile.” Her eyes remained on my shoulder as she deflected my gaze. “I’ve told you to stop before, and you listened. You could have taken advantage of my sorrow that night, but you didn’t. You came to my defense when you could have just walked away. The man I know is incapable of doing such horrible things.”I was wrapped around this woman’s finger—and I fucking knew it. From th
