A Sinful Night She's leaving
ISABELLA'S POVI went to my room and decided to have a quick shower with cold water. The water helped keep me awake and wash off the scent of sweet, passionate sex from me. But I could still smell him.I quickly wore silk pajamas that Edwards had gotten for me some months back. Then I went to the guest room where Brianna was staying.I walked into her room and met her sitting upright in bed, she was flipping through a Nora Roberts novel."Really Bella? Really!!!?" I ignored her and took a seat on the fluffy bed.I glanced over at her narrowed gaze.With a sigh, Brianna collapsed back to the bed, momentarily suspending her annoyance so she could listen to what I had to say."C'mon, Bella talk to me. I know you had fun and all that but you know this is something to be kept secret. You shouldn't be laying on his bed having lover's talks.""I wasn't having a lover's talk,” I replied.Her response was a frown. She soon shook it away. “So, what happened? Why did you take so long?” Her eyes
A Sinful Night Missing him
ISABELLA'S POVThe days before Alex left were one of the best days of my life.Now, it has been almost a week since he left and I've tried not to think about him, not like I could. Instead, the want and need hadn’t lessened; if anything, they had grown stronger. But every time the temptation to call Alex began undermining my common sense, I kept busy to distract myself from thinking of him.We already agreed that it was just sex. I didn't want to seem too attached to him, so I decided not to call him or text him. That way, it would be easier to forget him.When I slept, it was with the memory of him holding me in his arms, but more often I lay awake, my body soft and aching for his hardness to surround him. I couldn’t sleep and my appetite had suffered. I couldn’t even have sex with Edward, because the simple fact was that I couldn't stand him touching me. He didn’t even tempt me enough to arouse me. When I closed my eyes at night, I saw Alex, with his unruly dark hair and clear, gray
A Sinful Night Seeing her again
ALEXANDER'S POVIt was my norm now to be woken up in the middle of the night, my body drenched with sweat, and my mind haunted by the vivid memories of the girl I had told myself that I would so easily be able to forget.In the two weeks since I’d returned, however, Isabella had taken complete and total control of me, and it was driving me crazy. I couldn’t even have sex with other women, because the simple fact was that other women didn’t even tempt me enough to arouse me.The games played by women who tried to attract me did nothing other than turn me off.I needed to be with her again… and the longing drowned out everything else in my life.I understood I had to keep my distance. Hell.... she's my father's wife. I shouldn't be fantasizing about her at all, but still, I couldn’t stop myself from thinking about her.It was almost 4 pm and I was in my hotel room. Today has been a long day. My thoughts, however, were soon diverted.A few weeks ago, I received an invitation to a birthda
A Sinful Night Saving her
ALEXANDER'S POV"What are you doing Alex?" I didn't miss the venomous glance, however brief, she sent my way. She tried to free her hands but I grabbed onto her arm."Calm down," I said. I led her to an elevator. We weren't alone, however. There were two other people in the elevator. I leaned over her to press the close button. The elevator slid shut, and we were on our way up."Alex, am I being kidnapped?" Isabella whispered.I chuckled quietly. "I'm only taking you to have a breath of fresh air and some quiet. It was getting rather noisy down there."She briefly glanced at me and was quiet. She immediately stepped out just as the elevator opened. I slipped my hands into my pocket to control the urge seemingly burning through my skin to reach out to touch her.I didn’t realize just how intimately my body reacted to hers. I had to constantly catch myself from sliding my arm around her waist to guide her, and from brushing my hand down her slender arms. I wanted to brush away the tendr
A Sinful Night Getting him angry
ALEXANDER POVIsabella's eyes widened in horror, and I took a step back, trying to grasp the abrupt change in her demeanor.Her panic was unmistakable as her eyes darted around, scanning for possible escape routes. I could see the fear etched on her face."Relax," I urged, reaching out to steady her trembling shoulders. "It's just Lucas. Why are you so scared?"Her response came out in a rush of words, anxiety lacing every syllable. "You don't understand, Lucas will think something is going on between both of us. He's..." She hesitated, struggling to find the right words."He's what?" I prodded gently, my concern growing."He's not a nice person," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. "And he may blow things out of proportion if he sees us here alone."My mind raced to process what she had just said. Lucas is my brother, and even though we weren't best friends, even though I didn't trust him still I didn't expect Bella to be nervous about his presence."Isabella, what do you mea
A Sinful Night My Dream
ISABELLA'S POVIt was a Tuesday morning and Edward was taking a shower, getting prepared for work. It was quiet and I enjoyed the peace. I was reading a James Hadley Chase Novel, but I couldn't concentrate on the story. I read one paragraph over and over again, still not quite grasping the message.I picked up my phone and saw a missed call from my mother, and a text from Brianna asking how my trip went, but nothing else… especially from him.I hadn’t even realized that I still nursed the hope that Alex would reach out, and the fact that he hadn’t hurt more than I wanted to accept.I shut my eyes and all that came to mind was... Alex.His almost boyish grin, but with that intensity raging in the depths of his glare.What's wrong with me? Why do I keep thinking about him? I kept chanting to myself.I remembered the party last week and how he had stood up for me. How he had dragged me out of Edward's arms, as he paraded me as his prized possession.I didn't feel angry towards Edward. Be
A Sinful Night I will disobey him
ISABELLA'S POVI knew I didn't nod because I accepted what Edward was saying, but just for the acknowledgment that I heard him. Whatever thoughts I had about Alex was the furthest thing from my mind, as all I could think about was the fact that Edward didn't want me to actualize my dreams. I had given up on having children just because he didn't want kids. He didn't want any conflict over his properties to arise after his demise between his children and any children I may have. Even though I've always wanted children, I gave up on that dream because Edward didn't want any more children.I knew I would disobey him this time.I rose to my feet, took his plate, and mine, then headed over to the sink. I rinsed out the plates and proceeded to load them into the dishwasher. The maid hadn't come yet and I needed the chore to keep me busy.I stared at my phone screen, barely managing not to cry. I texted Brianna about my conversation with Edward and I awaited her response. I just hoped she wa
A Sinful Night To the room
ISABELLA'S POVFor the first time in more than a while after the party, we were seeing each other again, and I looked like a homeless stray cat, with sweat dripping down my face. I wanted to bury myself in the ground.What was he doing here?He was dressed in a two-piece set, the matching waistcoat and pants molded and fitted to his body like a spell. I tried not to think of the parts of him I had seen and tasted, but given that I'd never thought I would see him again this soon, this was a treat I couldn’t deny myself.Now he was back here again, and everything seemed to be tilted on its axis. I didn’t know how much longer I would be able to remain patient.I gazed up at him and caught his gaze. He winked at me. I turned away, my nerves suddenly jittery."I'm working out to keep fit, to keep my mind occupied." I finally managed to say and I began walking again on the treadmill.He walked towards me and stood, looking at me with such intensity and I felt my skin heating up."You're wor
