Chapter 11: You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams. ― Dr. Seuss
Micah              I watch Sophia’s golden hair flutter around her as she disappears into the crowd. I know that I should run after her, but I don’t know what to say. What I really want to do is go into Darren’s building and beat the crap out of him until he’s hurting as badly as Sophia. Fortunately for him, Hunter calls me a moment later and distracts me from my homicidal thoughts. Lifting the phone to my ear, I walk back to my car and answer. “What do you need, Hunter?” Hunter answers quickly. “Hey, Savage. Priest wanted to know if you could stop by today. It’s about what we talked about yesterday.”              I take a deep breath and give the building one last look before I reply. “Yeah, sure. I’m on my way.” As I make my way to Priest’s garage, I can’t get Sophia out of

Chapter 12: Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies -Aristotle
Sophia              I observe Micah’s sleeping form and run my hands across his chest, feeling the tautness of his sinewy skin beneath my fingers. He looks even more rugged in his sleep. His long lashes rest becomingly over his carved cheekbones. His lips are plump and firm, and his body is etched with firm muscle and sinew.  Rising up to straddle his waist, I rest my hands on his tattooed shoulders, grind my hips over his engorged cock, and slide my wet heat around him. Micah groans in his sleep when I slide my tight, velvety pussy up and down his stiff shaft and groan as pleasurable waves of heat crawl up my spine. A hiss escapes my lips as the friction his hardness creates a blazing fire inside of me. Micah’s hands wrap around my waist, and his lusty eyes open with pleasure as the heady sensations my tight walls create rush through his body.       &

Chapter 13: “Don't spend time beating on a wall, hoping to transform it into a door.” ― Coco Chanel
Micah               I can’t help feeling unsettled as I watch Sophia walk toward her friend’s sweet shop. I want to kiss her so badly, but she’s as cold as ice. I wish I could rewind back to earlier in the morning when we were naked in bed. But I had to open my mouth and ruin it again. I know I should have given her some reassurance, and it kills me that I couldn’t. Whenever I think about confessing my feelings, my mind veers off to Kazik and the Confradia. I just don’t know how she fits in the intricate web that is my life. I wonder how Sophia would handle knowing that I kill people for a living. A tremor rushes up my spine at the thought of her horrified face. We would definitely not be together then. She’d never let me touch her if she knew. And the sex was incredible. Better than any sexual experience I’ve ever had in my life. And that scares me.

Chapter 14: The greater the obstacle, the more glory in overcoming it. ― Molière
Sophia               My body flushes, and my swollen lips tingle as I watch Micah drive away. I don’t know what to make of his parting kiss. The man just confuses me beyond my control. There is no doubt that having sex with him last night was beyond my expectations. But every time he opens his mouth, I either want to punch him or kiss him. There’s no doubt that he cares about me. Maybe more than he’d probably admit to himself. No man who just wants sex would have acted so possessively toward me.              Turning back to the shop, I step into the door and call out to Maleah. “Maleah! I’m here!” I can’t help but feel bad for her when Maleah comes out of the back, looking pale. I’m sure her eyes are sunken beneath her sunglasses. She steps forward with a sad grimace on her face

Chapter 15: As soon go kindle fire with snow, seek to quench the fire of love with words. - William Shakespeare
 Micah               Hunter plays with the dials on the radio as we make our way to Priest’s garage. After a moment, he finds what he’s looking for and leans back in contentedly in his seat. “So, you and Sophia are together?” He asks with a sly smile. I shrug my shoulders and stare straight ahead. “Yeah, it just kind of happened.” He snorts and takes his cell phone out to play around with it. “Dude, just letting you know that if I knew about it, I would have never hit on her.” I nod my head and reply. “It’s fine. Like I said, it just happened. Now, if you don’t mind, I’d rather not talk about it.” I say, hoping that he’d drop the subject.              However, Hunter does not know the meaning of the word quit. He continues to talk

Chapter 16: The most sublime act is to set another before you. ― William Blake
Sophia               I’m surprised to have received a call from the very talented ballerina Jade Reyes earlier. It turns out that Jade Reyes is the one dating Micah’s friend. Jade is an incredible dancer. Sage, Maleah, and I saw her perform at a Gala in Manhattan several months ago. Imagine their excitement when they found out that Jade called. We ended up making plans to meet at a Karaoke bar that night. I figure since Micah was going to be out all night, I’d enjoy some time with new and old friends.                     Thankfully, Sage joined us. We dressed to the nines that night. I’m wearing my favorite black halter top and tight leather skirt with knee-high leather boots. My hair is knotted into an intricate sideways braid, and my makeup is smoky. I feel sexy and

Chapter 17: You can’t blame gravity for falling in love. -Albert Einstein
Micah               I feel exhilaration and fear at once as I drive away from the building. I know that I have a great deal to do, but all I can think about is going back home and making love to Sophia until neither of us can walk. My phone rings a moment later. Looking at the screen, I answer. “Priest. I was just on my way over there.” Priest responds quickly. “We have a problem, Savage.” I sigh in frustration feeling the relaxed mood from earlier dissipate. “What is it?” He grunts. “Who is Detective Colin Vane?”              I stiffen in my seat with alarm. “Did you say Detective Colin Vane?” He snorts with derision. “Yes, I fucking did! Now, are you going to answer me?” My head pounds as I mutter through clenched teeth. “Yeah, I met him a couple o

Chapter 18: Love keeps the cold out better than a cloak -Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Sophia               I watch Micah’s departing form as he walks out the door, and feel a sense of elation.I can’t believe he just made love to me on top of Maleah and Sage’s desk. It was so desperate and intense. Everything about Micah is that way. I look in the mirror, fix my hair, and make sure my dress is not rumpled before I walk out of the office. Maleah raises a questioning brow when I step around the counter. “Well, it looks like someone was having some fun. What did lover boy want from you?” She says, wagging her eyebrows mischievously. Taking a deep breath, I flush slightly. “You mean after he thoroughly ravished me on top of your desk?” Her eyes widen, and her mouth gapes open with surprise. “What? Are you telling me that you two just did the nasty on my desk? You little vixen!” She says with a sly grin.  &nbs

Chapter 19: I like not only to be loved but also to be told I am loved. - George Eliot
Micah               “Where the hell have you been?” Priest asks the moment I walk into his office door. I quirk my brow at his daring question. “Last time I checked, you weren’t my keeper. So I suggest you take a better tone with me.” Priest’s head tilts with a challenging frown. “What happened with the detective?”              Taking a seat in one of his comfortable chairs, I cross my leg over my knee and release a frustrated sigh. “Well, I told him to back off, but I get the feeling that he won’t. He also asked me about Willem.” Priest’s face stiffens. “Are you fucking kidding me? What exactly did he say?” He asks, taking a seat behind his desk and resting his folded hands on the surface. Running a thumb across my lips, I think about what the

Chapter 20: Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead. -Oscar Wilde
Sophia               Letting Micah walk out that door on some dangerous job is the hardest thing I’ve ever done. Everything has been so great lately. There have been so many times that I’ve wanted to tell him that I love him, but I’m scared. I know that our relationship is different now, but all I can remember is him running away from me all of those years ago. Taking a deep breath, I walk back to the bed and stare at the ceiling. I’m too nervous to sleep. Even after making love so many times, I’m still feeling energized. I just want to rewind back to an hour ago when we were in the tub touching and kissing.              For the rest of the night, I walk around the apartment, feeling restless. The upside is that I use the time to design Ms. Reynolds’ apartment. The woman is quickly becoming
