Chapter 99Alicia gawked at her phone for a couple of seconds and she picked up the call. That voice, she knew it obviously. But the number was unfamiliar. It was Anna, she knew it was her“Anna? What number is this?”Anna chuckled, “Oh, just a new one, nothing too serious seeing that neither you nor Andre wanna take my calls or reply my texts so I got a new number. That’s by the way, guess who I’m with?”Alicia didn’t really care to be honest but a part of her was curious so she sniffed, staring towards the entrance of Andre’s place. “W-who?”“Your cousin, he’s surprisingly good at sex, better than I thought. I can see why you’re obsessed with him, I’d be too considering how good he fucks”Alicia spiralled, chest heaving and eyes watery. There’s absolutely no way Jason would do that to her. She could hear her own heart pounding, she knew if someone else was close to her, they’d probably hear it as well. NoNo[Anna is out of her bloody mind.]{I knew that bitch was crazy but not thi

Arthur’s POVAnd he took her hand and headed out…*********It felt as though both their bodies just couldn’t wait because immediately they managed to sneak out of the party without anyone stopping them to greet them or tell them stuff they weren’t really interested in, Alicia’s back was already pressed against Andre’s car door while he kissed her, taking his time to remember how she tasted because it felt like years since he last kissed her even though it’s just been a couple of weeks. Alicia fisted the top of his shirt, pulling him closer and she could feel how hard he was when he pressed into her. He tried to pull back from the kiss but she chased his lips, turning them around until Andre’s back was pressed on the car and he groaned in her mouth when he felt her knees buck up and apply pressure to his already hard cock.“Licia, stop…let’s go to my place.” Andre breathed in her mouth and she nodded feverishly and let Andre open the door for her to get in and he shut the door, about

Arthur’s POVAlicia didn’t understand while her heart was racing as much as it was. Where were they going together? She got up even before Philip could say anything to her and she followed them until she got to the top of the stairs and she had a door close and her heart skipped even more.She walked towards the door and stood there wondering if she should go in or stay outside and just listen. What would be so gut-wrenching was if she heard moaning.Andre wouldn’t, right?But Anna could and Anna had always been so good at executing her many seductive moves.“Why did you bring me up here?” Alicia heard Andre’s voice and she got closer to the door to listen.“I wanted to talk, you’ve been avoiding me.”“That’s because there’s really nothing for us to discuss, do you not get it?”“I do but Andre, how do you even not love me anymore over a simple mistake that anybody can make?”“Are you delusional? A mistake you made and stuck to, you are dating Frank. You didn’t cheat, apologise and com

Arthur’s POVThe party was in full swing, at least that’s what the girl who was twerking on a random ginger head boy thought, the guy doing a handstand while chugging alcohol seems to believe it to, Dylan who just made out with a girl due to a dare seemed to have enjoyed the kiss because he pulled her in for another one and the brunette loved it. Andre just arrived in a simple outfit that he knew everyone would love. He scanned the whole environment, pretending he was trying to find Jason but he just wanted to find Alicia. Was she coming? He didn’t know but he heard some girls talking about going to the party and Alicia’s name was mentioned although he didn’t understand why they were talking about Alicia all of a sudden. “Andre, over here!” One of his friends from basketball called him over and he walked towards them, plopping down at the empty seat beside him.“I thought you weren’t coming, are you okay?”“Yeah yeah, just tired. I’ve been so stressed lately and it’s sorta weighing m

Andre’s pov“You kissed her.”*********How did she know that?She glanced at me and started to get out of her seatbelt.“Hey hey, wait, can we talk about it? I don’t want you to be sad all day because of whatever is going through your head.”She relaxed and nodded, avoiding touching my hands.{Now that I think about it, she did know about the kiss with Anna after all.}“Why are you upset that I kissed Anna?”Let’s start with that “I’m not upset, I- I just want to know why you kissed her-”And not you.“Did you want it to be you?”She didn’t want to look me in the eye and I already got my answer but I wanted to hear her say it.“N- no.”“You’re stuttering, baby. Be honest with me, you don’t lie to me, remember?”She nodded innocently and I smiled, but my heart wanted to bust, she wanted me after all, fuck Paul.“You wanted me to kiss you?”She nodded again.“Words, princess.”“I did, I do.”Present even.“Why haven’t you ever asked me?”“I know you don’t see me the way you see Anna.”

Maybe don’t tell me about your bigger boobs when I’m trying to not fall for you, kiss you and hold you in my arms.“No, they don’t and you look nice. Jeans look great too-” and your ass is perfect but I couldn’t say that, she was 16, I shouldn’t even be thinking those things.“My mum said not to always have you over now that I’ve surprisingly matured. She said you look at me a certain way.”She was so innocent.I smiled at her, “what way, love?”“I told you to stop calling me that.” She ran off but I could see the cute redness that formed in her cheeks and I followed behind her as we got into my car.“Why doesn’t your mum want me to come over?”“She says because you’re a boy and like I said, you look at me a certain way.”“What way did she mean?”She shrugged, “I don’t know, maybe in a friendly way?”I chuckled and turned so I was facing her and helped her get her seatbelt in but I didn’t move away immediately, “and you, how do you think I look at you?”Of course she’d blush, it was s

Arthur's povMason doesn't say anything, but he does move aside so she can walk in and she does.She stands awkwardly in the middle of the room, she doesn't know what to say. The guest room is neat, well arranged. A small smile tugs at her lips when she sees how organized Mason is . Does she start with an apology or ramble about how she likes having him around and how fun Mason is?.Or how Mason is basically driving her insane from how good he looks and smells.Mason breaks the silence. "You shouldn't be here, your husband can just come home and walk in here. He does that often.""Yeah, I know but I wanted—No, I needed to talk to you.""Go on then."Bella wants to ignore the way Mason sounds so cold, but still so attractive. The glasses are giving him the sexiest look she has ever seen. She needs to focus on why she's here rather th

Arthur's POV Two days after Bella’s sexy time with Mason and her not-so-sexy time with Gabriel, she has managed to avoid both men.They're out to ruin her.She knows Mason has only two more days to stay with them before he leaves. Mason hasn't approached her, called or texted her. She tries to ignore how it makes her feel, Mason is acting like Gabriel.She doesn't blame Mason for ignoring her though because she’s doing the exact same thing. She’s ignoring Mason and only waves at him as a sign of greeting whenever Gabriel is around so he doesn't notice that they have unspoken words to say.She doesn't want to admit it but she misses Mason. He's fun, someone she’s been able to talk to without ending up getting scolded.It's almost as though Mason is making things worse for her by looking absolutely breathtaking.Wearing those fitted leather pants and loose shirts, walking around shirtless and in just shorts, putting his hair up in a messy bun or ponytail and letting strands fall on his

Bella steps closer to the door, her head dropped forward as she peeks inside the bathroom to see Gabriel's standing figure. Gabriel has his head thrown back, washing his scalp, scrubbing gently with his fingers, the foam on his head slowly disappearing.Bella swallows, her eyes tracing down Gabriel's back and stops on the curve where his butt stops. Blood rushes to Bella's cheeks and her stomach swirls with something like heat. She gawks at her husband's butt, one she's never seen since they got married. His thighs, the way they're so firm, huge and strong. His thighs are two of Bella's combined and the thought makes Bella shut her eyes briefly to inhale the smell of Gabriel's apple body wash.She wants Gabriel to turn around so she can look at the other stuff she badly wants to see. Gabriel's body proportion is insane, his body is gorgeous, everything Bella ever fantasized about, and she wants to touch.The heavens must be on Bella's side because Gabriel turns

**—MY HUSBAND'S FRIEND—**Bella shuffles off Mason's lap, her head collides with the roof of the car and she doesn't have the time to let the pain settle in before dashing out of the car.She stares at her phone with wide eyes, contemplating on what to do.Mason steps out of the car, standing in front of her, aching to calm the younger down because it looks like she’d start hyperventilating soon."What is wrong with me? He said I should be back before ten and it's almost midnight.""Bella, calm down.""No no, please don't touch me." Bella says, slapping Mason's hands away.Okay?Mason winces at those words but manages to hide his expression."I'll take a cab home.""What? No, why would I let you do that when I can drive you home? Bella, I'm driving you home.""You keep forgetting that you're staying at our place! What do you think is gonna happen when we walk in together?""I'll park a few blocks away and you can go in. I'll come in later.""We both smell like alcohol. Mason, please—j

Arthur’s POV Bella walks out of the elevator and stops in her tracks when she sees Gabriel, who was also making his way into the elevator.Bella's grin instantly disappears, replaced with a frown.She walks into the elevator, knowing it's best not to step out, so she stays back as the elevator door shuts close."Where are you heading to?" Gabriel asks, typing away on his phone."Nowhere, I was heading home. Why are you here? You only come if you have a meeting with the book company, and you always tell me before you come. Do you need something?" The pitch of Bella's voice raises with every question, and for a moment, Gabriel looks like he might slap her quiet. But as always, the threat of violence is left hanging in the air, unfulfilled."Do I have to call you every time whenever I'm coming to my own building? I'm the landlord."Bella fidgets with her jacket and nods."Sorry." "It's almost seven, we'll have dinner together."'Oh God, please...no'Bella wants to say that, she really w
