“Yes,” Ava said and looked at Ryder. “Losing his grandmother like that has made him, I guess you can call it sensitive, for when people don’t touch base with him. Especially if he knows there’s a risk involved. He just needs to know everyone is safe.” Ryder nodded. “After his grandmother died, he hit a rough spell again. She had left him her house, so he had somewhere to live. But she didn’t have much money, so he needed to work instead of going off to college,” Ava continued. “It was before I knew him, but I think he was depressed and vulnerable. That’s when he met Jonas. Jonas was older, almost twenty years older than Gabriel, and from what I have heard, he was just confident and took charge over situations. Gabriel fell hard for him, and Jonas took over parts of Gabriel’s life.” Ava paused again, even if this wasn’t her story, and the pain in it didn’t belong to her. It still affected her deeply. “It got to a point where Gabriel was more or less emotionally dependent on Jonas. Jona

The spa day was just what Ava needed. She had thought the spa would be some small facility that acted as a front for Zane’s other business. But it turned out to be one of the most famous spas in the city. Not only that, but it had been completely empty except for the staff.“Mr. Velky has booked the spa for the day,” a sweet girl told her when Ava asked about it.“Yeah, nothing serious about that relationship,” Gabriel teased Ava. They had the most relaxing day, being pampered and talking. Gabriel told her he had already started working on some things for Zane. Amongst other things, Ava’s suggestion for a charity. He also told her that after Ryder’s confessing his fears to Gabriel, things between them had become better. Gabriel sounded happy and in love. Ava was more than happy for him. As they left the spa, Ava felt like a new person. Her muscles felt like rubber, her hair was shiny and her skin glowed and felt smooth. They dropped Gabriel off at his apartment before going home to th

Zane knew something had changed, and he didn’t like it. Ava had always been comfortable around him, maybe with the exception of the first days. But now it was like she tried to put up a wall between them. It had started the night he and Jax had met with two of the other families to talk about Johnson. Jax had made an idiotic comment which had Zane wanting to kill his friend. Jax had made it sound like they were heading out to party with women. To make the fucking mess even better, Zane didn’t have time to get away and call Ava like he had said he would. When he had come home to find his bed empty, he had gone into panic for a moment, fearing something had happened. When he had found her sleeping in her room, he had been pissed. After that night, something was different. At first Zane had considered that Ava had been upset by him not calling. But she didn’t seem upset. She was her usual happy self, and she was just as passionate when they had sex. She just wasn’t as present. It was slo

An hour later, the SUV stopped in front of the small house in the suburban part of the city. Zanes men had arrived half an hour before to make sure the aunt and uncle wouldn’t be home. They had been encouraged to go out and eat their dinner outside their home. Zane helped Ava out of the car, and she smiled as she looked at the house. “They have repaired the front step and the porch,” she said in a cheerful voice. “I told you it would be done,” Zane reminded her and followed her up onto the small porch. Ava was about to reach for the door handle and stopped. “It’s okay, Angel. The house is empty.” She looked up at him.“No one’s at home?”“No, not a soul. It’s just you and me.” She nodded and opened the door and invited Zane inside. Zane had never been in a place like this. He had grown up in a mansion, the few friends he had growing up were also living in mansions or were children of his father’s men and would come to the mansion. As he got older, his lifestyle wasn’t one which had

Ava was sitting and reading as Zane and Jax were playing pool. Ryder had gone to take Gabriel for their fourth date and Ava was looking forward to getting all the news from Gabriel later, or perhaps tomorrow. It had been an emotional day with visiting her old home. But it had also been cathartic, and she felt better after she had done it. She had revealed more of herself to Zane. She had spent the better part of a week trying to place a wall between them. But it had been emotionally exhausting, and it had felt so much better this afternoon when she didn’t have to watch every single word or action in his company. Maybe she just needed to accept that she had feelings for him. Not that she would let him know. Zane had been very clear what he needed and wanted from their relationship was just sex, no attachment. So she would give him that. Maybe when it was over he would at least see her as a friend. When her time was up with him, she would take her broken heart and she would start a new

When Zane had unbuttoned her shirt, Ava felt his hands caressing up from her waist, shaping her body contour as they moved upwards. They stopped just below her breasts. His thumbs ran over the lacy fabric of her bra, and Ava felt her nipples pebble at the simple touch. She wanted him to touch her more, to play with her breasts. Instead, his hands went to her shoulders and pushed her shirt down her arms. Ava felt it fall to the floor. Ava wondered for a brief moment why she never felt uncomfortable showing her body to Zane. Something in the way he looked at her made her relax and stopper her aunts nagging voice in her head that she wasn’t good enough. Zane always made her feel like she was desirable and sexy. “Beautiful,” Zane told her as he walked around her, letting his hand gently drag over her skin. He kissed her bare shoulder and sent a shiver down Ava’s spine. She heard the rustle of fabric against fabric and then she felt Zane against her back. She could feel his dress shirt pr

Ava relaxed into the bed while listening for Zane’s soft footsteps. A gentle touch from his lips landed on her upper arm. He graced his fingers over her stomach. Each caress and touch raised the fever in Ava’s body. She wanted to squirm, to manoeuvre her body with the little give the restraints gave her, so she could get release. But Zane had told her to be still, so she bit down on her bottom lip and pleaded for her body to remain motionless. “Don’t bite your lip, angel. You will hurt yourself,” Zane told her, tugging her lip free with his thumb. Ava wanted to scream at him, beg him to give her what she needed. Instead, she let out a soft whimper. “Do you feel needy?” he asked, cupping her pussy with his hand, not moving it or helping her get what she needed.“Yes, Sir,” she said and nodded as best she could. “But I told you I would worship your body,” he reminded her as he ran both of his hands up one of her legs and followed up with kisses. “Zane, you said you would make me cum,

Ava listened to the sounds as she felt Zane get off the bed. She heard the soft sound of fabric against skin and the hard metallic noise of a belt buckle being undone. With each of the sounds her anticipation and need grew. She knew Zane was getting undressed and even though all she wanted to do was to run her hands over his skin and feel his hard muscles playing under her touch, all she could do was to lie in bed and listen. Ava couldn’t even look at him, but her mind summoned the image as clear as if she could see him. She tried to figure out what he would do next but had to give up when she realized that she didn’t have a clue. Ava heard his soft footsteps as he moved closer to the bed. She felt his soft fingertips as he caressed her right arm from the shoulder and up to her hand. “Open your hand, Angel,” he told her in a soft voice. Ava let go of the strap that tied her to the bed. Zane placed something in her hand. It felt like some sort of plastic box and he took her thumb and
