At a glance.In front of me is him, more than three months have passed since the last time I saw him.So many days without wanting to know anything about him or to name him and now, by a bad move of fate, I have him in front of me showing me that no matter how much time passes, or how much I think I'm over him, with his presence alone, he will always make my senses cloud and my interior revolt.He will always make me feel vulnerable before the existence of his being.He looks like the very perfection I was once madly in love with. And in a brief review, it does not go unnoticed that he now has the skin on his arms tattooed."Baby, you're back," he says in a restrained, husky voice.We both find ourselves in a state of absolute state of bewilderment, our faces say everything and at the same time nothing."Damn, are you okay?" he says suddenly, standing inches away from me and enveloping my nostrils with his magnificent scent. "Claudia, why did you cross like that?"I'm still not able t
Since yesterday, my mind has gone blank and there has been no way for me to process what happened.I didn't keep crying, I didn't come here to keep doing it, and I didn't allow myself to. However, it is impossible not to feel confused, hurt, and unable to control my emotions when it comes to him.I can't believe I saw him, I can't forget what he said to me, and I'd be lying to say that remembering his words doesn't hurt me, and so does his attitude. Nevertheless, it was like a revelation.It confirmed to me that I made the best decision, that separating from Alessandro was the best thing to do, and that once and for all I have to forget about him and let go of all bygones."Claudia, I'm leaving now," Eva says as she enters the kitchen, pulling me out of my thoughts."Here, I made you lunch," I say, holding out the lunch box I made for her."Clau," she says, taking it as she shakes her head. "You don't have to do this.""Sure I do, I'm not going to be in your house living for free doin
Alessandro's POVI throw myself back on the bed after sniffing a line of dust and as I close my eyelids, her face comes to my mind. Her eyes, her lips.Suddenly it feels like they're kissing me, it's so real the sensation makes me react, and as I look ahead, the one I detail is Rebecca. She intensifies the kiss, thrusting her tongue into my mouth, and I reciprocate without any encouragement, wanting her to pull away from me."Is something wrong?" she asks when I break the contact of our mouths."No. I told you not to come today.""I know, but I guess I can't go a day without seeing you anymore," he says climbing onto my lap. "We had a great time yesterday."He slides his hands under my shirt, tempting me."Not now," I say, pushing her away to stand up."What 's wrong?" she questions, stepping in front of me."Don't ask me to explain," I warn her."Excuse me," she retorts, rolling her eyes.I refrain from saying another word and leave the room.Walking down the hallway, my cell phone s
It has been too overwhelming to be inside that hospital, surrounded by all of them and all I need is to get out of here, and if possible, never to see them again in my life.In all the hours being in that place, I realized how much it affects me, and how bad it makes me feel to have those kinds of people around me, starting with him.I had to be the strongest I have ever been to be there. Hearing about the birth of his daughter, seeing him become a father now. Being in the most movie-like way, part of that moment that for me implied no joy whatsoever.It wasn't easy at all, it all brought back memories and memories of what I once wanted and could have been, but that didn't happen and now he is fulfilling with another woman.My soul once again feels bruised. However, even though difficult, I must be very clear that this should not affect me. Ale and I are no longer anything.After what I saw, I'm sure I couldn't have made a better decision. And that he is definitely not part of me anym
Charles's POVAt the precise moment my mouth hits hers, I feel as if I lose control of myself, and put my composure aside.Her lips feel like velvet between mine, her breath is extremely delicious and refreshing and the touch of his hands on my chest still with my shirt on, just makes me want to get rid of it, to feel her touch directly on my skin.I can't help myself, and in consequence of the fierceness of our kiss, I grab her hips, urging her to wrap her legs around me.As I pull away for only a few seconds, it is impossible for me not to notice how her dress has ridden up almost to her waist, leaving her underwear on display. I have to command myself not to go any further, thanks to the image which has inevitably given me an erection.I continue our contact, thrusting my tongue into her mouth, and she manages to keep up with me perfectly. I immediately tug on her lower lip, causing her to grip strands of my hair tightly."Why?" I hear her ask in between gasps, taking advantage of
"You didn't bring someone into the room, did you?" Eva says, making me widen my eyes with exaggeration."What?" I exclaim, feigning indignation at her words. "Of course I didn't! Surely the smell came from someone outside and since I left the window open, it got in here.""I know, doll, I'm just kidding," she replies with a laugh. "But just so you know I have no problem with you wanting to, you know, have fun in the apartment. As long as you know damn well who you're doing it with.""Oh, okay?" I stammer looking for the sensible response to this. "Let's change the subject.""Okay." She lets out a chuckle."You know, I think I'm going to need to go shopping, I don't have a lot of formal clothes and starting tomorrow, I'll need them.""We can go out now, and while we're at it we can go eat.""Sounds perfect," I replied."Then I'll wait for you outside," she says, leaving the room.Once I make sure Eva is no longer nearby, I run to where I have my perfumes, and start spraying one of them
"My parents are coming today," Anna says as she tends to the baby.It wasn't easy being a father, but I think I was adjusting well to it.Vittoria is worth it."I don't mind them doing it, as long as it's only to see my daughter, and not fuck with me by saying whatever bullshit they can come up with.""I told them to keep their comments, so you don't need to repeat that to me," she says reluctantly."I hope you stress it to them when they come over, especially your father, because I'm sick of hearing them talk shit in my house."Anna in response rolls her eyes, however, I play it down by leaning back next to her to grab my cell phone."A few days ago you asked me a question," she says suddenly, regaining my attention."What question?" I say, confused, because I honestly don't remember."Why she was in the hospital," she replies, making my body tense up."I don't care.""But you wanted to know.""I told you I don't care about the reason anymore, Anna. And you should be glad about that.
I bend down to pick up all the sheets to put them inside the folder, feeling fucking embarrassed, and as I'm about to take the last document, someone else's hand meets mine in the act of wanting to grab the same document.I don't even have to look at his face to recognize him. It is Sebastien, who has approached to help me, placing the remaining sheet in the folder."Are you all right?" he questions."Yes," I affirm, standing up before leaving, observing once again Alessandro, who has hardened his expression upon noticing the presence of Sebastien."Excuse me," I murmur.As I pass by that red-haired girl, I find it impossible to miss the look of displeasure she gives me, however, I try not to determine it and continue on my way.When I finally enter the elevator and the doors close, I feel I can expel all the contained air. I lean against the wall and close my eyes to calm my breathing.I feel my whole body weaken, especially my hands, which are shaking uncontrollably.Once again he i
