Amara, haletante et presque au bord de la rupture, elle murmura : — Valerio... je… putain, je ne peux pas... c’est... trop... Alors que je murmurais ces mots, le souffle coupé, il m'attrapa fermement les poignets, me forçant à les maintenir derrière mon dos.

Completed-----She felt good—better than Zander Stanton remembered, and he had a damn good memory when it came to this woman. But his hatred was more pronounced than the little voice in his head telling him to give her what she wanted—his love. But Elvie had never been the one for Zander. He loathed her.

Here she was, just as stupid as she remembered. "I—I'll take a shower, and I'll be b-back." She muttered and left his room immediately. This was her goodbye; tonight, Zander would be hers.
