I hadn’t left Mani’s side. I couldn’t when she was lying here, barely breathing. Her private room had a small bathroom. The nurses and Luca were the ones bringing me food, but otherwise, I kept my ass in the chair, only getting up for bathroom breaks.The first twenty-four hours came and went, but she didn’t wake up. The doctor didn’t seem overly concerned, which I didn’t like. I wasn’t a doctor, but people shouldn’t just stay asleep. They should fucking wake up.Reaching for her hand, I pressed a kiss to her knuckles. At least she felt warm to me. "Mani, love. Open your eyes for me, baby."She didn’t flutter.No sign.No movement."She’ll wake up when she’s ready," Luca said from behind me, and I turned slightly to look at him."Were are you able to find out what happened?"Luca sighed, taking a step forward. "It is just like we suspected; Lorenzo has nothing to do with it.""Then who?" I asked. My voice was deep and void of any emotion."That is the thing, Sin." He was silent for a

The day was going great; right now I'm in Sin's office reading a romance novel while Sin works.We have been here for quite some time now and have hardly really said anything to each other as we focused on the task ahead.I was already tired of reading and wanted to do something else. Lifting my head, I looked at Sin and found him still focused on some documents in front of him. I was bored and hungry.Letting out a yawn, I tried to gain his attention and failed miserably. Not wanting to accept defeat, I decided to try again and let out a loud yawn."What seems to be the problem, Amore?" I grinned when he finally spoke, happy to finally get his attention."I'm bored," I whined dramatically.Sin rolled his eyes before he answered, "I thought you were reading a book."I sighed loudly, trying to make a point. "I was, but now I'm bored.""So what do you want to do?" This caused me to jump with joy, and I stalked toward Sin."Can I go outside? I haven't been outside for a month. Please ple

I was in the library, sitting close to the window as I flipped the pages of the book. It has been a month and two weeks since I got shot, and thankfully, my injury has gotten better and is healing really well. The downside was I wasn’t allowed to go out and have tried pleading with Sin, but he was just being hot-headed and freaking stubborn.Victoria and I have crossed paths a couple of times, and every time, I’m always met with a glare, though she doesn’t say anything. But I can tell that whatever hatred she has for me seems to grow, and at times like this, I wish Samantha were here.A footstep snapped me out of my thoughts, and I turned to see Sin walking over me with a smile on his face.He was looking impossibly handsome in yet another perfectly cut suit. Well, shirt and pants. He had forgone the jacket. I almost wished for the jacket because the shirt left so much to the imagination about his manly shape.Broad, thick shoulders; arms bulging with muscles, but not too much. He wor

Like every morning, I woke up feeling something wet between my thighs. My eyes shot open, and I leaned my elbows to find the head of a dark hair pampering kisses on my thigh. I lay down again, looking at the ceiling. Sin had woken me several times in the night to have his way with me; I shouldn't be surprised, but how does he have so much stamina?I pulled his head away softly, but he only pushed me closer to him. "Nikolai.." I dragged out his name, caressing his shoulders, but he was so occupied that he only let out a hmm in between the kisses.The vibration sent a shiver down my spine, making my hips lean slightly forward into Sin's face. He chuckled at me, holding my panties by the waist side."You aren't going anywhere today, Amore," he said before pulling my new panties away. Without any more words from his side, he used his tongue to separate my folds, and I moaned again.Teasing me with sweet tortures, he licked my clit at a slow pace, like he was trying to survey the moment. I

Sin got home very late last night. I tried waiting up on him but fell asleep; I didn't even know what time he came home yesterday. Right now, I felt his warmth as I snuggled deeper into his hold.I slowly opened my eyes, adjusting to the sunlight shining through the window. I looked up and was met with dark orbs staring right back at me."good morning". I whispered softly,"Good morning, princess." I could never get used to his husky voice. It always managed to bring me to my knees. "Did you sleep well?" Sin asked."Yeah, I did. I tried waiting up for you yesterday and didn't notice when I fell asleep." I answered truthfully with a pout on my face."Sorry about that, Amore; I came home pretty late. I hoped you had a fun time with Sam yesterday," he asked, stroking my hair."Yes, we did; I was able to get a dress for tomorrow.""I can't wait to see you in it. I'm sure you will look great in it; you always do," he responded, his voice sending tingles rising through my body."Thank you.
