Christina’s POVThe warm heat of the body pressed against mine made me subconsciously snuggle closer in comfort, a sigh falling from my lips. It felt so warm and fuzzy and it smelled so good that I nuzzled closer, drawing in a deep breath as I tried to stay in this sleepy haze for as long as I could but my body had other plans, as the sleep began slowly clearing away. My eyes slid open to see the room was dimly lit by the light of the moon streaming in through the glass of the floor-to-ceiling windows.At first, a yawn slipped from my lips and I tried to stretch my limbs, still oblivious to my environment but then I noticed the arm that was wound tightly around my torso, holding me firmly but protectively in place. As if I’d just begun to regain proper consciousness, his soft almost silent snores streamed into my ears and my eyes sought him out.My gaze landed on his peaceful face and I suddenly jerked to a sitting position, not finding that I might disrupt his peaceful slumber. My br

Scott’s POV“You came,” The words left my lips before I could stop them.“I’m sorry, I’m late,” Her gaze darted to the table that was already set, with Adams and two maids standing at the far end, waiting to serve us.“It’s fine, never expected you’d show up,” My gaze traveled over her as I said the words. Although she was simply dressed in a plain evening dress with a sweetheart neckline that showed her cleavage and accentuated her figure, she looked stunning with her short wavy bob hair and her soft brown eyes. They held a dull light to them, that matched the calm expression on her face, one I wasn’t expecting, considering how bad things were currently between us—all thanks to me.“May I?” I stretched an arm, ready to lead her to the table and she willingly placed her arm in mine. Before I could catch myself, I raised it to my lips and placed a kiss on the back of her palm. I noticed the way her eyes followed me, and a tinge of confusion crossed her expression but it was gone in the

Christina’s POV “Ms. Bell, would you like anything?” The air hostess asked with a cheerful practised smile on her face and I shook my head in refusal. “Not for now, thank you,” she smiled and her eyes drifted to Scott who was seated on the next seat beside mine, his hands resting on the armrest with his eyes looking straight ahead. “Sir, may I get you anything?” “A bottle of water would do,” He responded without sparing her a glance. Without a word, she turned on her heels and left, leaving us alone. At first, I turned to the window, not sparing him a glance. After all that happened due to Marvin’s visit a few days ago, I hadn’t spoken a word to him and I’d like to keep it that way. He also didn’t speak to me and only sent all errands and instructions regarding our trip through Adams and the maids. It was as though we were merely business partners, heading for a business trip with nothing in common and I’d like to keep it that way. I was still staring out the window when the pil

Scott’s POVMy tongue danced with hers and she latched onto me, wounding her arms tightly around my neck. My hands moved to her thighs, riding inside her dress and grabbing her firmly as I pulled her up to wrap her legs around my waist. She obliged without any struggle and I took my time exploring, letting my fingers feel and caress the skin of her smooth and soft creamy thighs. My fingers traveled higher, softly grazing her skin until she shivered against me, and a soft whimper fled her lips but I swallowed it, not willing to let up.I continued kissing her, just as my fingers reached the side of her panties and I trailed my thumb around them, letting it glide to where I could feel her clit. By now, her panties were soaked with her juices and when I circled my thumb around the wet spot, directly pressed to her swollen clit, a sharp gasp escaped from her lips, followed by a soft whimper. For a minute, I pulled my lips from hers and rested my head against hers, just to stare into her e

Christina’s POVI got into the bedroom and slammed the door shut, my anger getting the best of me. For a minute, I looked around, finding something to vent on but there was nothing. All I wanted was to let it out and maybe smash something against the wall to ease my frustration but there was nothing I could do. I had no money to afford the luxury pieces in this home, that was if Vincenzo didn’t pass a bullet through my skull for destroying something. Annoyed with this, I marched towards the balcony, needing a quiet and peaceful moment.The balcony was a bit hidden from the room and no one would easily find me here. I held onto the railings, resting my body against them as I stared at the massive property surrounding me, and the vast thick forest, with no sights of other homes or residential properties. This environment suited Vincenzo, considering his line of work. He could go about his dirty business and do whatever he wanted without alerting the attention of others. It was like he b
