"He read that book?" Shamia asked. "I have no idea."Not sure enough, her cell phone rang, and she saw that it was Leo calling. "Hello," she answered. "Aira, sales of tickets and prints soared. Like everyone watching Storm on the news finally realizing who you are. This is good news. We had to increase our order for print copies. I know it. This book is as good as the series is. Deserve to have the movie adaptations that soon." Happiness and excitement can be heard in Leo's statement.After hanging up the phone, Aira smiled, but the smile didn't reach her eyes. "You are not happy, are you?" Shamia looks worried."I hope it's about me, us. What we created.""Babe, we're selling well. That's a small boost," Shamia said. "It's not just ours. Nothing in this world is ours. It can be helpful to have someone who will speak for you. You are lucky that he has. This is what you love to do and he is supporting you."Deep down, she was genuinely happy. Not only did Storm express his approval
"Cold hands, warm heart, sweety nose," he said. "Yes. My grandpa used to tell me that all the time. She also said my hands would cook delicious food and good in plants. I have great pastry-making hands, honesty, and a maternity hip."She put her hands on her hips and his cock thickened. "Your body is so damn good." It's a body he wants to explore, and get his hands on. He was getting aroused, and his cock was getting a little painful as it pressed against his zipper. He moved the lapel of his jacket, moving it over the evidence of his erection. "Why are you not happy with what I did to help you?""It was so stupid. Leo called me up and he said once your conference or interview or whatever you do, my book and ticket sales and page followers skyrocket.""Isn't this a good thing?" He did it to show support for her, to help her. "Yes, that's a good thing. Shamia told me it was a good thing.""Don't you think so?" "You run two very big businesses and I can't help you. My books, my movie
"They might get in touch," he said. So far, they haven't been in touch, and she doesn't mind. "I'm not too worried. They might tell me to stop, or say I'm embarrassing you." "You don't embarrass me, Ai. I am very proud of you. I'll come over later.""Okay. I can cook for you.""You order takeout while I'm with you. Don't bother yourself, I don't want you to get tired. I know you don't like me."He pouted, and she couldn't help laughing that he looked like a child. Kind of cute. "Maybe you should do that in all of our business meetings." She grabbed her coat and bag. Looking back at him, she really didn't know what to do."Kiss me," he said. She moved closer to him, staring at his chest. "Do you think this will stop?" "What? This tension? I don't know what to do when I'm with you." He grabbed the back of her neck and pulled her closer."Just be yourself. Touch me, Ai.""That's not me." "Then touch me, touch your husband. I am yours as much as you are mine." She put her hand on h
The two entered the main floor of the apartment together. The building has only two large apartments and is in a nice part of the city. He knocked on Aira's door and waited. She opened it and saw that it was him with a smile on his face. "Hi, I didn't expect you to come so early." "I got off work early and wanted to see you too soon." Aira opened the door and let him in."I got a call from my dad," he said, brushing past her. "Isn't that a good thing?" She closed the door and leaned on him. He couldn't help staring at her. She was still wearing the jeans he had unbuttoned earlier. The shirt pulled over her nipples and he just wanted to strip her naked. "No. Dad just warned me. Some in our family are not impressed by your recent success."She sighed and walked away from the door. "Well, that's not surprising. I made you dinner." She walked past him and he followed her into the kitchen. "You don't have to cook for me though.""There are people in the world who are not happy that
He tore the shirt off her body, then took her breasts and pressed them together. "I fantasized about these, honey. They're big and plump, goddamn, they make men wild." He stamped a kiss on each knoll before popping the buttons off her bra. Storm had never spent any time on her breasts before, always skipping over them as if they didn't exist. The sex life between them is boring. She hated every second of it, but she was already craving more. She doesn't want it to stop. He squeezed her tits together, sucking each nipple into his mouth. "It feels so good," she said, biting her lip. "I love your tits, honey. I love watching you come towards me so I can watch these babes bouncing and fucking me, I can't wait to get inside you." Like all the other times they had. Nothing ever happened.She grabbed his shirt and pulled it over his head, her hands caressing his bare, muscular chest. She had never taken the time to explore him before, and she gave herself the chance to know every inch
He loves Aira while his own stupidity and pride distance him from her. Storm won't let them have a horrible marriage. They have to be strong and let nothing get in their way. He won't let any."We'll make it right, honey trust me." "Alright, I will."Trapping her lips with his, his hands stroked her body. Pulling away from the kiss, his lips slid down her neck to her nipples. He sucked each nipple into his mouth, took a slow bite, and moved down her body. Her stomach quivered slightly, and he sat between her open thighs, smiling.Turning on the light, he saw that she was soaking wet. The fine hair that covered her pussy glistened in the light. His mouth watered as he tasted her creamy flesh. His cock got harder and he wanted so badly to be inside her. Storm is determined to explore and surely enjoy what they missed.They have years to make up. Parting her pussy lips, his tongue flicked across her swollen clit, moaning at the taste of her cream. She is so fucking delicious. His tongu
Letting go of her hand, he fell beside her, his cock still sunken on her. He didn't want her to go, never would. It should be like this between them. He never wanted to go back to the way they were estranged and cold to each other. Aira is the flame, he is the fire, and together they resolve that it will never go out. The flame will continue to burn.***5 days later "So, what happened?" Shamia asked. They sat in a private booth in a hotel restaurant. Leo has arranged for her to have a fan meeting and signing. Magazines piled up in a big stack, and everyone who came got a free autographed magazine. Aira just took a lunch break because she was very busy this morning. She has signed at least five hundred times.Her hand was hurting, and the thought of pain reminded her that the rest of her body was hurting too.Storm doesn't hold back, and he's been by her apartment all week after getting off work. It was kind of surreal for her. They went from separated couples to close couples.
Standing backstage, Storm watched as Aira made a thank-you video to her fans and viewers. Her magazine was officially launched, and within two weeks they were a real couple. It was the best two weeks he's ever had, and the one he really hoped for. Their relationship isn't perfect, and Aira struggles to deal with him in bed at night. She felt he was being aggressive and it was his fault for pushing her away before.Shamia gave Aira a thumbs up and they moved on to another set of signatures. Leaning against the wall, he is mesmerized by her. He also had lunch with Leo to see how his wife was doing. He definitely wouldn't let her take risks with the vultures outside. Leo is a fantastic agent who cares about Aira and believes she has a real future as an actress, model, spokesperson, chef, and blogger.They had a long discussion, and he got the details of her contract and future deals. She is still allowed to run her videos and blogs. The photos and stuff about Aira in the magazine are
Clara clear all doubts and misunderstandings!"Where are you going?" Jacob asked big-sister Clara."This is just an in-flight visit to clear up misunderstandings. I will come back to see Castiglio next time. By the way, Mira—"Mira raised her head nervously. Clara laughed again. "Your brother managed to convince his mother not to sell the family painting with the house. I'm glad to see them hanging where they belong."***"Clara can run in circles," Mira muttered as the limousine disappeared from view. "She was mopping the floors with us." Still in shock, she started back indoors. Then it dawned on her: Clara knew everything. There's no need to pretend anymore, and there's no need to wait for a divorce any longer. Suddenly, Mira's lower limbs struggled limply through the swamp like toothpicks. Clara removes the artificial boundaries formed by their relationship. They are running out of time. "How can you tell her our marriage is fake?" Jacob angrily condemned. "Do you really thin
Mira took a step back, frustrated by the bodyguard's barely concealed hostility. He hesitated, apparently determined not to insult Jacob for his assistance during her stay. From the door, she glanced back."Things are not what you think." She said helplessly. "I shouldn't be thinking about anything, Mrs. Delrama." But there was accusation about him, his usual quiet friendliness chilled by what she believed to be a fiercely defensive loyalty to Jacob.It's only when Jacob is in this situation that he realizes that Jacob is too damn manly and proud to want her around him, which prompts Mira to go back to her room. She lay in bed and watched the dawn break. He was really upset, he must have been drunk. Mira tried very hard to understand. Hadn't she herself betrayed Dimitri's trust in the same way? She agreed to marry Jacob only under duress,If she had known what their fate would be in the morning after the ceremony, she would have run a thousand miles. Jacob wasn't trying to disinher
"I don't hate anyone." But Mira is still ashamed because she remembers her resentment against his legal family reaching explosive proportions before her brother's death, only that was when she met Jacob and Clara and before she let herself face reality."Dimitri doesn't love anyone," she pointed out sternly. "He never stopped loving Clara. Even if he knew about me, I think Clara knows this and that's why she never gives him a choice." "You didn't give me a choice either," Jacob reprimanded bitterly. "You let me continue to think that you slept with Dimitri. Even though you know this belief breaks my heart, you keep me believing it!""I keep telling you we're not lovers, but I know it's pointless! The only possible explanation for Dimitri's will is the one I've come up with." Jacob's eagle-like profile was frozen with suppressed emotion, and he gave her a sharp look."But I must admit that I cruelly and cynically misjudged Dimitri and did everything in my power to shirk the responsibi
But not just in the moment when she revels in the fact that he can't take his eyes off her. Mira was awakened by the thunderous slam of the door. She blinked confusedly in the light and stood up against the pillows, looking vaguely at Jacob, standing at the foot of the bed, shirtless except for a pair of faded skinny jeans hanging down over his thin hips. There was a gentle smile on her lips. He looks so magnificent, he always looks so magnificent,She could even forgive him for accidentally waking her out of a deep sleep for the first time in days. Vicious black eyes stared at her fiercely. Mira froze in amazement, her smile gone, her abdominal muscles tensing. Waves of seething tension emanated from Jacob. "What's wrong?" she asked in a low voice."I'm hungry. I got up to get something to eat and on the way down I started wondering what was so important about these documents that my lawyer felt the need to fly over and put them in my hands himself and if they were worth that much.
Raw triumph flashed in his glistening eyes. He ran slowly, looking for his fingers in the pouty mound he had bared for fun. As his thumb brushed the stiff pink bud approaching him, she gasped and stood up against him, every nerve ending in her body screaming in response. He pushed her to the ground with passionate kisses. She kissed him back with desperate urgency, everything she had suppressed for so long.Endless days suddenly betrayed her in a possessive storm. Her hands ran over his body, smoothing the warm golden skin that encased the whiplash muscles, and she let out a hungry moan of impatience. "You're always in a hurry—" Mira writhed and squirmed, on fire wanting him, without a semblance of self-control, not even remembering. Her fingers gripped his thick, silky black hair, and she moved her legs in an invitation to pain more blatantly than words.With a sharp groan, Jacob reached for her hips and pulled her under him. Then he hesitated. "I don't want to hurt you anymore."
"Change it." Mira pleaded sincerely, and hurriedly avoided him and walked towards the house. "I'm going to take a shower." "See you upstairs," Jacob said softly. She froze and then understood what he meant. He had to change, and although he slept in the bedroom opposite to her, half his clothes were in the closet in her room. Her head was still spinning. One kiss and she's gone without a trace, and Jacob can do anything to her! No wonder he was laughing!She was his and he knew it. A taxi was already waiting in the courtyard, and when Mira entered the hall, a maid was leading a man with a briefcase into the living room. The man stopped for a moment and almost looked at Mira in surprise. Then, just as suddenly, his piercing black eyes veiled nodded politely and disappeared from her view.Mira looked curiously at Klaud standing under the stairs. "Who's that?" "Mr. Delrama's lawyer." No doubt the man was staring at her because she looked horrible in her gardening attire it wasn't a
"I know what I'm doing, Sol." "How can you say that? There's no peace in Castiglio. We're all crawling around the house—no smiles, no laughs. That wonderful delicious food—He said if he didn't finish another meal, he'd leave!" "Jacob is very bad-tempered." "Having a wife who works all day in the garden, he has a reason. You're neglecting your husband." Not in her dream, she didn't."He thrives on neglect." Sol gritted her teeth disapprovingly, shook her head, and got up to leave. "You're as stubborn as he is." Mira regained her energy and continued weeding. If her brother looked down on her and Jacob now, she knew he would blame her too. But from the moment Jacob asserted that if she were related to Dimitri, he would feel obligated to maintain a married relationship with her, Mira decided not to try to use that as a basis to attract and keep him.After successfully seducing her into bed, Jacob candidly admits that his only interest in her is sex. If he knew she was Dimitri's sist
The powerful car stopped in the yard. Jacob turned off the engine and turned to look at her, black eyes as hard as jet in a vibrantly handsome face. "When you lose your temper with Sheldon, your mood can turn bad. He is your security blanket and I think you are old enough to live without him. Times have changed, don't try to tell me differently, baby. What you want now is me—"Forever, and always, she thought horrified, clutching at the depths of her own vulnerability. She wants so much more than she hopes to achieve. Jacob held up a strong hand and gently tucked a handful of colorful spirals between his fingers. He lifted her brooding face, subjecting her to the onslaught of his stern scrutinizing gaze. "I want you," he said with great succinctness. "So what's the problem? In my opinion, this is a simple and completely straightforward relationship."Mira held her breath, almost drowning in the evocative scent of him being so close, and a flurry of small reactions made her dizzy an
Sheldon makes a deliberate U-turn in the colored vehicle. "I've always promised myself to take a vacation. The moment you said you were in Castiglio, I saw the sun, water, and the sand and I realized where you had to be. From there, it was just a matter of studying the map." As he drove down the steep mountain road at the crawling speed of a fear of heights, holding the steering wheel painfully tightly, rounding each zigzag corner with ease,Mira thought about Jacob feverishly until she was dizzy with tension. Bang! He stole her peace and security. And what did he give her in return? A terrible sense of inadequacy and self-loathing, and an unreliable temper like an active volcano. "If you are threatened by Jacob, please yell." Just last night, he told her that she had a fight with him and wanted to arrest him! He's seen inside of her and understood something that she didn't understand herself, and it's horrific.She should have known she was in love with him the moment she found her
