ACE I love watching her sleep. Her red hair is spread across the pillow. She looks like an Angel, my own Angel, sent to rescue me from my hell. I watch her closely to ensure she is not having another nightmare. She has been having them lately and I desperately want to know what they are about. But I won't rush her, she will talk to me about them and the scars on her thighs when she is ready. I curse when my phone starts ringing in my pocket, startling me. I quickly silence it to avoid waking Aella up. It is Ryker. "Hey man, Jake told me you found your woman." I massage my temple; my headache has been going on for weeks now. I need to sleep, but I cannot sleep besides Aella, and even when I leave her to sleep and go to the office, I always end up working. "I am sorry I didn't call back yesterday." "I understand man. I just hope she finally realizes how much you love her." That keeps me speechless and confused. She had said she loved me y
ACE Her grip on the sheet tightens, her cheeks turn red and her pretty mouth opens in shock. This woman was made for me. The fact that she lets me do dirty things to her and gets shy the next minute would continue to be a mystery to me. After what felt like forever, she let go of the sheets. I can't help but notice how pink her cheeks are, I know she is fighting the urge to use her hands to cover herself. If I waited for Aella, She would take forever. unfortunately, I am not a patient man when it comes to her. I drag her towards me and smile when she kneels on the bed and rewards me by fixing those magnificent eyes on me. I don't miss her wincing. "Are you sore?" She pouts, rolling her eyes at me. I quirk an eyebrow, she seems to be rolling her eyes a lot lately. "Roll that eyes at me again, and I would put you over my knees. I don't care if you are sore, I will push your body down this bed and fuck you sideways, resting your legs over my shoulder
ACE She lets me hold her hands when the car finally stops. I know she is still fuming about the marks on her skin which are clearly on display right now for the whole world to see. I didn't have to bring any of my men because Ryker never goes anywhere unprepared. I smile when I see the amount of men surrounding the restaurant. I breathe in, I can get comfortable knowing that Aella is safe here. "You are welcome, Mr Ace, Miss Aella," the waiter at the door greets, walking us to our seats. I pull out Aella's seat and I don't miss the blush on her face. I keep forgetting the fact that she is just twenty, I need to work on giving her more romance, which is going to be very hard. I don't know how to be that guy. I look around surprised. There is no sign of Ryker, except for his men surrounding the building. I also don't see any guests around. It is either we are super early or extremely late. I take a seat beside Aella, she relaxes when I put my hand on her thighs.
ACE This woman makes me forget time. I fucking lose my control regardless of where we are. I would have dragged her out of this restaurant immediately to teach her a lesson if not for Ryker's interruption. Aella immediately gulps her wine before I can stop her. Ryker finally reaches our table smiling. He is a very handsome man, if I were gay, I would be head over heels for him. I have never been concerned about how good-looking my friends were, I never had any reason to be, but now that I have Aella, I never want her to look at Ryker and Elijah and start wondering if she settled for the wrong guy. I exhale smiling back at Ryker, my friends are obsessed with their women, and I trust them with my life. "I almost gave up on you. I thought you were never going to show up." I comment, standing up to hug him. "I would never miss a gathering like this. Who misses an opportunity to see a beautiful woman." He turns to Aella, his eyebrow raised in confusion. Aella
ACE Aella snuggles closer to me when we get to the car. I forget all about the unpleasant conversation in the restaurant when her hand began to roam on my body. After an hour or so, she sighs softly. "Are you awake?" "Hmm." She lazily ran her tongue down my cheek to my, exposed throat. "Fuck me." "Wow," I say laughing. "I don't think I would ever get used to this. Alcohol makes you brave. I am not going to touch you if you are going to sleep off on me." She grabs my cock, massaging me slowly. "I won't." At that moment, the car stops. we are home. I move out of the car first, before helping Aella. I nod my thanks to my driver Kevin. I meet Jake and Ryan at the door. Jake avoids my eyes, he knows that I know what he did. I carry Aella to the room and I can't help smiling when she keeps kissing and sucking my exposed throat. I drop her gently on the bed, and I start undressing. When I am left in just my brief, I move to her to help her undress too.
AELLA I woke up with a headache. I say a quick prayer for whoever kept the blinds closed. The room was dark, but I had a good feeling it was quite late, and I had lectures to attend. I moved too quickly in an attempt to stand up. I swear my head feels like it could split open anytime. I ignore the pain, moving blindly to turn the switch on. "Fucking hell!" I curse when I bump my knees on the chair. I finally found the switch after what felt like hours. I squint when the room becomes bright. I hate to admit this but Ace is always right. "What the fuck!" I scream alarmed when I get a good look at the time. It is past twelve, classes started at ten. Lord, save me because I smell carryovers in my future. I smile when I see the glass of water and aspirin on the bedside stool. Ace is always so thoughtful. I felt a thousand times better after taking the aspirin. I have little or no memories of last night. I hope I didn't embarrass myself in front of his fri
AELLA Now, I finally understand why he wanted me to take a sit beside him and not on his lap like I usually did. He knew I would aim for his face the minute he said what he just said. I don't bother aiming for his face, he would catch my hands before I do any damage. I laugh hysterically. "Please tell me you are joking" "I don't know how to, you know that." My eyes widen, I am waiting patiently for him to laugh and tell me he was joking. When he doesn't, I hit his desk, a big mistake because I end up hurting myself in the process. "You can't do that Ace, you said you forgive me." "I have." At that moment, Jake walks in with a tray of food. I guess he decided to bring it in himself. He places the food beside me winking at me. "Ryan and I will check the site. Ryker just called." Ace nods his head, looking at Jake who in turn nods too. Men and their secret signals. If I wasn't so pissed off with my new normal, I would have bitched about
AELLA Eva envelopes me in her warmth when she finally reaches me. I hold onto her too, God knows I need a friend, I want to tell her everything, I want to talk to someone about this thing going on between Ace and me. I am going out of my mind trying to understand my feelings. She finally lets me go, clearing her throat when Nina covers me with her body again. "Wow, hi sexy," Eva says with a laugh. "She doesn't like humans." I mouth to her. Eva waves to Lucas and then winks at Dan. The poor man clears his throat uncomfortably, maybe one day, when they all learned not to be so uptight, I might ask him if he liked Eva. He was a very handsome man, and honestly, they would look so good together. "You have so much explaining to do girl, and you better spill." I nod my head in response. I don't even need her to drill me for answers. I am so exhausted trying to keep secrets from my best friend. I stiffen my shoulders when Nina refuses to let me
