Chapter 15 - Can I ask you something?
ROCCO
My kiss was returned just as greedily. Suit jacket clenched tightly in her fists, jerking me forward.
I had one hand on her bare back, revelling in the softness of her skin. Tingling electric followed my hand as it felt up and down keeping her close to me. My other hand was bunched into her hair, twirling blonde curls.
I was sunk. Utterly sunk by this gorgeous woman. I moved to kiss her neck as she tilted her head sideways and let out a little sigh of pleasure. My blood racing like an express train, my roving hand trailed down her back and found her round, peachy ass. I couldn't help squeezing it, like a helpless moth to a flame.
"No panties, what are you doing to me?" I groaned into her neck.
"It's all your

Fighting Fate Chapter 16 - A Tangled Tango
ROCCOAs the casino winds down following the millionaires drunkenly falling into their limo a whole new tango begins.How to get rid of every other person apart from Selene. Thankfully Jacob and Callum were the world's greatest wingmen."Everyone!" Jacob called out, taking off his suit jacket and rolling his white sleeves up. All the staff turned and looked. "We have smashed it tonight - drinks on us at the Jericho Bar! We will sort this place out tomorrow!"The dozen or so croupiers, doormen and waitresses left cheered and filed into the locker room to get their coats.I saw Troy talking to Selene furtively, she smiled widely at him and stroked his face. God I am incredibly relieved he's gay. Body and face from Baywatch that
Fighting Fate Chapter 17 - Only Love Can Break Your Heart (Selene)
TWO WEEKS LATER – FULL MOONSELENESensible, boring Selene has been in full control of my life from the second that bastard uttered his cheap line.Two weeks might have passed but still I moan relentlessly at Troy. He's listening, just, but I can tell the patience is wearing thin. Having to hear Jax rave after each of her lunch meetings with him isn't helping.The very next day, Rocco rang Jax's desk asking if he could take her to lunch. The fucker. Yes it was business, a casino launch takes a lot of planning, things to discuss but still. Jax raved to the whole office about how fabulously he had treated her, a lavish bouquet of flowers arrived soon after thanking her for her support on the project.He'
Fighting Fate Chapter 18 - Only Love Can Break Your Heart (Rocco)
ROCCO Let me be clear right from the off. I am not 'dating' Jax. She is an interesting, cute woman and might be into me but these are business lunches. If you must know I am having these lunches to avoid having to go into her place of work and see you-know-who. Especially since impulsive idiot Rocco has set some fairly dangerous wheels in motion. Johnny Deco had shown up a week ago at the Gilded Falcon. He was a short, scrawny guy with a receding hairline. If you passed him in the street you would think he sold flowers but he's a fixer in the local mafia. He likes to brag, when he's had a big win and everyone else has left. Lolling on my bar stools with a cognac telling me tales about how many men he had to take teeth from to find out the latest snitch. Interesting yet terrifying.
Fighting Fate Chapter 19 - Massage with a Message
SELENEI have never checked into a hotel as fast in my life. Like an edgy KGB informant I quickly skirted around the foyer, keeping out of sight, ducking my head down, until safely in the elevator. After locking the door behind me I stayed there, hands pressed against the white wooden frame.Whether it was to make sure I stayed in it or to keep someone out was a question I didn't dare ask myself.Resting my head against the door I sighed in frustration. Even though he'd embarrassed me a fortnight ago I couldn't help my stomach flipping and toes curling at the way he looked at me. Those brown eyes were devilish. Like whirlpools they just sucked me in every time.Turning around, I tilted my head back against the door, lightly tapping my skull as though it would knock
Fighting Fate Chapter 20 - Twisted Fates
ROCCOMy nervous energy carried me homeward, back to my cosy nest of a casino. At least here I was confident I knew what I was doing. As Jacob helped me set up for the evening alongside the red-waistcoated staff I found myself checking my watch. I wonder what she thought when it all arrived, did she think it a cheap move, was my note too vague?The massage I couldn’t help adding to the list of gifts, despite me trying to convince you of my higher, more moral aims to apologise. At the same time someone should be touching that silken body of hers tonight, even if it wasn’t me. I received raised eyebrows from Jacob at my jaunty new mood, as I bounced around the casino floor, but he went along with it smiling to himself.I realised I had been so caught up in the last few weeks chasing Selene I hadn&rsq
Fighting Fate Chapter 21 – Back in the Pack
TWO WEEKS LATERSELENEThe two hours drive hadn’t done anything to help Troy and I bond. If anything I had even less idea what was going through his head. Vague answers and faraway stares had been my driving companion. “I apologise in advance for my mom,” I muttered pessimistically, swatting away a fly.“So I’m meant to lie about all these epic clubs - how me and you get wild on a full moon?”“Yep,”He sighed as I switched off the engine and leapt out of the car, stretching his long limbs dramatically. He pointed two fingers to his eyes in an ‘I’m watching you’ gesture. Before I could reply he was swiftly swept up by Marie and my mother and whisked into the house in a flurry of fuss and chit chat. I spotted Marie, five years younger than me, now had her hair tightly pin curled just like my mom and looked way too mature for her age. A thought flashed back of how Adam used to laugh at Mom's style, now his mate matched. His ma
Fighting Fate Chapter 22 – Slow Dancing, Fast Talking
ROCCOI arrived hours ago. Jacob being the man of the hour meant I got to hang out in his parent’s fancy guest house alone until it was time to head to the town hall. It was probably for the best, my mind was jumping with memories, not many of them good.It’s been a long time since I was last here. Almost exactly twenty years. Certainly there weren't any fairy lights going on when I last stood in that town square, all eyes on me. Well, all eyes were on my mother first, then once Alpha Wicknace fulfilled his murderous punishment I was left as the awkward question remaining. What do you do with the horrified child whose mother had just been slaughtered. His father was no use, having already killed himself out of some bizarre sense of shame.I can’t remember anything of what was said, I numbly observed a pool of her blood oozing towards me, realising I needed to move before the new shoes she had got me were ruined. I didn’t want to upset her. T
Fighting Fate Chapter 23 - A Breath of Fresh Air
SELENE It was shaping up to be the most perfect evening. Rocco danced beautifully, I felt like a precious jewel being shown around the room in his arms. When he started flirting with me about being my masseuse my body surged with desire so much, I almost went off-balance. I felt more like a harlot than a princess at that moment and I loved it. His scent was intoxicating, richly earthy and unlike anyone I'd ever met. Without even realising, like ships in a storm we drifted closer together. Where my chest rested against his, the sparks crackled. I know he feels it too. It can't be just me. His freaking out when that song came on totally threw me. What the hell? I found him outside cursing the sky. The slick, confident mask had slipped leaving behind a hint of vulnerability in those coffee-whirlpool eyes. Rocco’s mind was completely elsewhere and all I could do was watch.Adam, of all people, the bastard who shattered my heart shows up. Of course. All I nee
