Seduction: The taste of Lust Chapter 32: Deep Breaths
Veronica's POVIt took me one hour to drive from this part of the city to his place, Ed lives in a scheduled private area in the city and Leonard lives right in the center,So, driving from there was not only a stupid idea but this drive was one of my intense moments in life. I not only manipulated my thoughts into agreeing to go to Leonards, but I also did a lot of convincing on my way to his place, As a matter of fact, I still don't know why I told him to wait for me, seeing how the day has absolutely exhausted me, I should be resting but here I am almost three minutes to his place. I didn't even tell the guys that I'm leaving, I just got inside my car and took off. They may not even notice that I'm gone, with all the drinks they were having while I was on the call they pretty much have been blacked out by now,I should have stayed there, I mean they got into the trouble of driving to the studio and picking me up but as much as I wanted to stay, I couldn't.I had a lingering feeli
Seduction: The taste of Lust Chapter 33: Solace
Leonard's povAfter last night, it's easy to say that I'm officially tired. Not only did Veronica hug me the entire night, she even fell asleep in my arms. I had to stay like that in the living room while she was sleeping in my arms. Even my slightest movement of picking her up or adjusting my position was waking her, so I didn't have any option except stay like that with her. Not that I'm complaining, the sound of her breathing and her face resting so closely near my heart was already enough for the pain my back will face tomorrow. I even found myself drifting off sooner than expected, it wasn't until six in the morning that I felt the sunlight on my face that woke me up. I looked down to see her still sleeping. I tried to pick her up and move her to the bedroom when she slowly shifted and cup my waist with her hands, nuzzling closer to my neck.I bit my lips and look at the ceiling that seems like a great place to divert my attention and breathe normally, Thankfully, she didn't
Seduction: The taste of Lust Chapter 34: Leonard's Brother
Veronica' POVLeonard gets up from his seat and takes a position near the elevator, since it's private, people who are new to his place are required to pin some passwords for the elevator to run. He types some code on the wall security and some voice greets him, it was a male voice and sounded pretty heavy and hoarse from here or maybe his machine has some voice changer.I got up from the seat and signal him I'm going upstairs to give them some privacy but he instantly refuses and asks me to wait in the living room,As much as this seemed a little uncomfortable I didn't want to upset him so I obeyed and sat on the couch,"You changed the codes again?" a thick voice greeted the silent living room, my ears flicking towards the elevator as I try to listen even though its a bad thing to do but I can't help, the voice is really masculine and I don't want to admit but I just got goosebumps all over my body.Even Leonard's voice didn't give me goosebumps as strong as this one that makes me
Seduction: The taste of Lust Chapter 35: Heart to Heart Conversation
Veronica's POV"What the fuck is wrong with me?""Veronica calm down" Kelly blows a puff of air on her newly polished gray nails while listening to my freak show of regret that I literally hampered myself with. In just two minutes everything went haywire, we were having such a good time discussing babies and stuff but now here I am roaming around in my living room like a freaking idiot. When I cut the call with Leonard it took me some time to realize what I asked him, " Seasons, fucking seasons" I bit my lip and massage my temples, "You know there are like five hundred restaurant chains, bars may be more than that in New York but I have to go with Seasons" "You have a date and you're freaking out that's totally normal" she rolls her eyes showing zero interest in my agitated hysteria which by far has increased hearing her say the exact thing I was denying."It's not a date" I made myself clear but who am I kidding she knows that I'm lying, hell I know it too, I just hope Leonard do
Seduction: The taste of Lust Chapter: 36 Mirrored Heart
Leonard's POVWhy is she bringing that night up? I thought she was supposed to answer me about Rome but the sudden involvement of Kelly's name was not something I expected. "What do you mean?" I ask her while sipping the wine,"Did you hurt" she hesitated but I can see how much she wanted to say those words that may have been the biggest roadblock between us, "did you hurt her that night?" she cleared her throat and sat straight,"I don't know what you're talking" I do though, I can't tell her that. From the start, she blamed me for hurting Kelly and I never explained myself instead I used it to get close to her. The contracts, the game, the lies I've been telling her were all just to get close to her. Just to name my feelings I have for her but now seeing her like this was a wake-up point. "Leonard, don't lie to me" she wasn't blinking, her entire attention was on me, on my body language, my facials, my expressions. It's like she was looking for something to prove that I was indee
Seduction: The taste of Lust Chapter: 37 Feelings that surfaced
LeonardLast night I somehow convinced her to stay the night here and gladly she didn't argue. It was very late and I really didn't want her to go. Now it's eight in the morning and I don't want to wake up. She was in my arms sleeping and as much as I want to think that we had sex the truth was something else, she didn't want me to sleep on the couch so we both agree to sleep on the bed as two mature people who wouldn't do anything.Well surely I was planning on killing myself when she said that but all those resistance thought disappeared when we actually laid together on the bed.I seriously had the best sleep in a very long time and it became even better when in the middle of the night she surprised me with a sudden cuddle. She snuggled herself closer to my body and we both slept like that, hanging in each other's arms, away from the world.From time to time during the night, I would stare at her and I know it sounds creepy to watch a person sleep but after our argument, I was sca
Seduction: The taste of Lust Chapter: 38 Home is where your Mom is
Veronica"Kelly?" I walk inside my apartment, throwing the shoes on the floor and putting the takeouts on the table, "I brought food" I looked around the room but she wasn't there, maybe she's out.You know what that means, I finally got some time for myself. I quickly slip my fur slippers and hop on the couch, resting my head on the headboard and letting a long breath out, "I'm tired" a yawn escapes my mouth and I slowly close my eyes thinking about the car ride I had with Leonard.*Thirty minutes ago*"What?" he asks dumbfoundedI creek a smile " wasn't the main point of our meeting was Rome?" I gesture towards the Seasons building reminding him why we were here in the first place. I was supposed to answer him but got caught up in something else, "right?" he looks at the building as he remembers the very thing he asked me,"you want to come?" he said not believing that I agreed just like that, maybe he thought I would hold back because of our situation and the stupid media complica

Veronica's PovEd hasn't said a word to me after that, we are still in the living room except for my mom, who was sleeping in my room. She had fun catching on to my life through my friends but the exhaustion from the flight hit her and made her cranky so to save myself and everybody else, I asked her to rest.Now, it was eleven-thirty and as much as I want to crash on my bed and sleep I know Ed's non-responsiveness towards me will not let me have a peaceful sleep. One of them already knows that the rumors are true, actually two of them, Kelly as well, and now that the rest also knows about the rumors might as well tell them too that it's true.I clink my wine glass catching all their attention, "guys" I stand up and centered myself, "as you know there are a lot of rumors about me and-""Leonard" Lexi interuppts,"Well yes," I smile and continue, "the more so reason to tell you guys that whatever they're saying-""Is not true, we know Veronica" Aiden raises his beer can and clinks it
