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
Seduction: The taste of Lust Chapter: 39 Friends Indeed
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
Seduction: The taste of Lust Chapter: 40 Alls well the Ends well
Veronica's POVToday ends everything. I have waited for this day for so long and now that it's here I'm getting all scared and nervous. I don't know what the ruling will be but I'm confident in my case.Right now I was sitting on the plaintiff's seat with my lawyer on the right side of the room. There are some paperwork on our table and soon the crowd started to appear, I asked Leonard to arrange two reporters to witness the case ruling and as easy they were to spot they all looked like someone who's been seriously haggard. I hope Leonard didn't put too much pressure on them cause from the looks of it they look a bit terrified. I look around the room and spot my mom, Lexi, and Kelly sitting on the seat behind mine with a concerned expression. They look worried and seriously seeing their faces is making me more nervous, There are ten minutes on the clock till the judge appears and I'm freaking out. What if the case doesn't work in my favor, what if she bribed someone to replace the
Seduction: The taste of Lust Chapter: 41 Dark Desires
Leonard,I was on the bed when I got the call, the most awaited call of my life, "boss we got him" that's what I needed to hear, that's what they said, that's what's going to make my life a bit easier. They got him, they fucking got the one who stole the real chip from Kelly and replaced it with a fake one,Yes, the real chip was with Kelly but someone who has access to both Veronica and Kelly got the chip first and replaced it with a fucking fake one,When Aiden brought that chip at the party I knew it was fake all along. The person who has the real chip is working with someone close to us and to find out who it was I needed to give a dramatic performance to make both Aiden and Andrew believe that I had no clue about the chip being fake. One of them is linked with that person and the way I react and behave is very observed by this person, so not only did I plant my people on Veronica's friend, I even made a public gesture to get this person out of his holeAnd now that he's out, he
Seduction: The taste of Lust Chapter: 42 Disaster doesn't knock
Veronica"Lexi?" I called her name out as I untied my shoes and neatly placed them on the rack. I walked inside her apartment and take my regular spot on her barcalounger. Her place is exactly the same, nothing changed. Retro carpets, brick walls, and vases along with the hanging pots with artificial flowers on the windows.I notice a couple of new refrigerator magnets by the kitchen and I don't know if I'm putting the pattern right or not but one of the magnets seems to be for me. A letter L in red is crossed off and tell me if I'm being paranoid but I think it means Leonard and the cross is her way of saying I should break up with him.Seriously I don't understand. I thought we cleared all the negative assumptions about him so why get a magnet that could mean literally anything but it has to be this. I got up and walk to the kitchen opening the fridge and getting a beer before closing it a little harder to let the magnets fall but they didn't.I support my arms on the counter and

Leonard"Where are you going?" Andrew hurriedly got up and pulled me by my arms, "we're almost done Leo, don't you dare screw this" he warned me but I think he's forgetting something.I don't take orders, I unhand myself from his hold and threw a punch at his face. "Stay here and get the chip, I need to go" I bang my hand against the picture telling him to grasp the situation.He looks at the picture while covering his nose, "holy fuck" "I'm leaving you in charge, take care of this and safely board the flight with the chip, I'm leaving"He wipes his blood and pats my shoulder asking me to hurry, "and my father knows about the situation, he's covering the deal so fly it to him"I ran down the entrance and exited the building instructing my people to follow Andrew and board out before midnight.I get inside the car and quickly drove to the airport, messaging Nil my private pilot, on the way to get the plane ready. I take this chance and dialed Veronica's number but as expected it went
