Elena did not look convinced, "You really think that?" she asked, "Because I feel very confused about what to do with him. My feelings are all over the place… My head tells me to do the safe thing and stay away from him…. But I feel like my body and heart says something else. I'd be very stupid to ignore what my head says, right?""Maybe. You'll never know… But if you don't try, you'll spend a lot of time wondering what could have been and in my opinion, that could be very annoying," "My sister doesn’t like him very much," Beth shrugged, "That's her business." She leaned closer, "But between the both of us, I don’t think Emily hates him as much as she'd like everyone to believe, but don't tell her I told you that because… you know your sister… And I like my head glued to my body," It was Elena's turn to laugh now, but there was sadness in her eyes again after a few seconds, "I feel like I've been avoiding talking to her about him. I miss talking to Emily about things like this,""T
"Can you guys not do this?" Elijah asked with a frown, "This is supposed to be a nice family dinner," "It's fine, Elijah. Don't we all know it, Laura," Chandler interjected. "Trust me, we all do…I'm sure Elijah does too because he practically hears it everyday." As he said it, clearly taunting her with his tone, he stretched his arm along the back of Elena's chair. His thumb dipped dangerously, and Elena felt it brush the edge of her spine. She held very, very still.Laura's eyes narrowed dangerously, so Elena cleared her throat. "He likes to mess with people too, I've noticed. Just ignore him."Chandler withdrew his hand with a low chuckle that made the hair lift on her arms. Normally, it was the kind of thing that would make her want to twist his balls up in a knot—but it was so obvious that he was baiting Laura, trying to garner any sort of reaction from this woman, even if it was her contempt. Contempt, when you've been ignored and overlooked, was a preferable alternative, someti
Elena nodded, "Yes, I am. And I'm not going to force you to like him or anything like that, but I just need you to be a supportive sister. I want you to have my back whether it works out or not, because that's what we've always done. Look out for each other." Emily nodded, "Fine," she said "Believe it or not, Sis, I am happy for you,"Elena smiled, "You are?" "Yeah I am. You seem so bubbly when you talk about him and I know what that feels like, but please, don't fall too hard just yet. Enjoy what you have with him, and see how serious he wants to get, okay?" "Okay. Thank you, Emily," "You're welcome. Now, how thrilled are you about going shopping with Laura Kendrick?" Elena narrowed her eyes and they exchanged looks, then they both burst into laughter. —-------------Shopping with Laura Kendrick didn't turn out to be so bad, but Elena knew it was also because she'd literally forced Beth and Emily to come with her. Charlotte was barely around except for the time they went dress
Her whole body felt stiff, and she stretched before pulling the duvet over her body. This was nothing a good sleep wouldn't fix. She was about to close her eyes when someone knocked at the door. Elena almost groaned. Who could it be? Probably Emily or Beth wanting to check up on her. The person knocked again and she threw off the covers and headed for the door to unlock it. She threw it open, her hand rubbing her forehead, she began, "Look, I'm really tired and I…." She froze, and her other hand tightened on her robe. "Oh…." Chandler stood in front of her, wearing a white shirt and black shorts, he looked handsome as usual, and she stood there, in her short silk robe with nothing underneath, and suddenly she felt… Exposed. "Hi," he said, "I'm sorry if I bothered you… I urmmm….. I checked the kitchen and you weren't there… And I ermm…. We have barely seen each other since…. We…. Since the day before yesterday, I mean… And I just wanted to check up on you. Make sure you are okay," E
She nodded, "Yes," she replied without hesitation. He wanted to haul her into his arms and kiss her senseless, but he held back and swallowed hard, "You have no idea how much that means to me, Elena. Thank you." "You're welcome" Elena replied, suddenly feeling overwhelmed. The conversation has suddenly taken a serious turn and while she didn't regret telling him that, she still felt awkward about it. She stood up and feeling the stiffness all over her body, she stretched, involuntarily making a soft, feminine sound that sent the blood rushing to his dick. "Are you alright?" Chandler asked her, trying to ignore his semi hard cock. "Looked like that hurt," "It did a little. My body feels so stiff all over," There was a pause, "It's because you've been working all day. Can I help?" Elena was silent for a few seconds, and she wondered if he meant what she thought he did. "I could help you with a massage," he told her, confirming her thoughts. "All you need is a little adjustment an
"Elena…" he began, unable to decide how to voice out what he wanted. "Kiss me," she blurted out, making it easier for him. He was stunned for a second, so he remained still, "I want you to kiss me, Chandler," she repeated. That did it for him, and he threw caution to the wind. A smile curved the corners of his incredibly sensual lips as his hand tightened on her waist, the hard muscles beneath his shirt pressing against her sensitive breasts as he loomed over her. She glimpsed the intent in his heavy-lidded dark eyes a second before he lowered his mouth to hers. His tongue slid effortlessly between her parted lips and she forgot about everything else except him. It was how Elena imagined being swept up in a tornado must feel. The heat, the sensations like a primitive force of nature battering her, spiraling around her, sweeping her higher and higher until she was flung back in time, lost in the splendor of their passionate embrace.The persuasive movement of his tongue, skilfully
"No—first let me look," he husked, and slowly unfolded her robe to bare her naked body to his gaze. "You’re so beautiful," All Elena could do was look up at him with glowing eyes, every atom in her body crying out for his possession. It had been so long since she had felt the touch, savored the scent of a man… and at this moment, the wait was worth it. His hand reached for her, his fingers stroking over the soft curve of her breast and cupping its swelling fullness. Elena moaned, but he didn't stop, just kept caressing and coaxing her nipples into diamond-hard points."Fuck, I need to taste you." "Oh!" A moan of pleasure sighed out of her and her head fell backwards. Her hands grabbed the headrest of the bed behind her. Her arms were locked straight, stabilizing her body as she thrust her breasts towards him. His tongue flicked over one erect nipple and she trembled in response, willing him to continue. Then he sucked the whole aching peak of her breast into his mouth and worked it
Lexi Rogers, soon to be Lexi Kendrick, made an absolutely stunning bride. Her mane of vibrant red hair was twisted up, and soft curls fell in every direction. Pearls adorned the style, matching the beading in her gown. Wispy tendrils surrounded her face that was flushing with excitement. Tears burned the backs of Elena's eyes. She’d never seen someone more in love or happier.Well, that wasn’t correct.When Elena looked in the mirror that morning, she saw the same glazed eyes and soft, distracted smile, and it scared her. How absolutely annoyingly stupid she had been. She'd slept off in Chandler's arms after he'd given her a second orgasm the previous night, and when she woke up that morning, he wasn't in bed with her. She assumed he'd snuck out later in the middle of the night, and she didn't know if she should be mad about it, or grateful because Emily had barged into the room minutes after she woke up. If Chandler had been there, they'd have had some serious explaining to do, and
