A sharp gasp echoed through the grand hall, cutting through the ambient chatter like a knife. Eyes turned, and whispers began to ripple among the crowd. In an instinctive reaction, Xavier swiftly pulled Reina to his side, his voice a low growl, edged with frustration as he demanded. âWhat the hell is wrong with you?â The shock of the moment hung thick in the air; of all places in the world, this was where she chose to break the mold and take the initiative? Xavier thought. Yet, unbeknownst to Xavier, his abruptness stung Reina's pride deeply. Her heart sank at his tone, her cheeks flushed crimson with embarrassment as she stood silently beside him, her gaze cast down, avoiding the stares of onlookers, the polished marble floor suddenly becoming her sole focus as silence enveloped her. Standing stiffly beside him, she felt the weight of the moment press down on her, her heart racing as Xavier continued his conversation with the men before them, oblivious to her turmoil. At that mome
Fueled by urgency, Xavier retaliated, returning fire with fierce determination. He shot a quick glance at Alfonso and Lorenzo, who flanked him, urging them to cover his back as he sprinted after Igor. Time was of the essence, and there was no opportunity to wait for the elevator. Choosing speed over caution, Xavier dashed up the staircase, each step echoing his mounting desperation. Suddenly, a bullet whistled past his ear, prompting him to press himself against the wall for cover. He barely had a moment to catch his breath when he saw one of the masked assailants peeking out from his hiding spot, only to be met with a swift and merciless response from himâa bullet to the forehead that sent him crumpling to the ground. After a relentless exchange of gunfire with a few more men in black, Xavier finally made it to the roof, adrenaline pounding in his veins. But the door was locked tight from behind. Without hesitation, he unleashed a series of shots at the lock, the echoes ringing shar
This chapter is rated +18; please skip it if you are uncomfortable. ~ One week later ~ Reina woke up feeling strong arms wrapped around her, and the familiar woodsy pine forest scent she had missed hitting her nostrils, she stiffened, her heart racing like a teenager whose crush smiled at her for the first time. âWhen did he come back?â She questioned inwardly, pretending to be asleep. Since Xavier left her alone in bed without a glance, she hasn't seen him again. And she was happy, very happy; she didn't even want to see him. Who wants to see that arrogant, handsome man around, right? Flashback: one week ago. After the fierce and breathtaking kiss, Xavier broke the kiss and asked Reina, who was panting beneath him. âSee how wet you are for me? Are you still going to deny the obvious? You kissed me! Why did you kiss me at the party?â He demanded as he moved his fingers up her clit and gave it a squeeze, causing Reina to moan loudly. âAhhh! Fuck!â Reina squirmed from the pleas
âI know you're awake, Micetta,â Xavier's deep, raspy voice whispered into Reina's ear, his lips nibbling her earlobe. âUooh,â Reina moaned as a chill went down her spine. She opened her eyes and was instantly locked in Xavier's green orbs, which were looking down at her with intensity. âGood morningâŠâ Xavier was saying when Reina angrily cut him off with, âWhat are you doing here?â He smirked, his hand moving to Reina's ass, and he began to caress it. Reina shut her eyes, biting her lips to hold in the moans that were threatening to escape them. âThe next time you interrupt me with that tiny mouth of yours, I will punish it,â he said as he squeezed one of her ass cheeks firmly. Reina shuddered from the sensation, her arousal soaking her inner thighs. She doesn't know why, but something about the way Xavier said he would punish her intrigued her. She wanted to know just how he intended to punish her mouth. Reina didn't know when she opened her mouth and asked, âWhat if I want
~~~ Two days ago ~~~ Colombia. The clock had just struck midnight when a phone resting on a polished desk inside a dimly lit office screen suddenly illuminated the darkened room with a harsh glow. Lucas, who was sitting in the shadows, felt his heart race with a mix of anticipation and anxiety as he glanced at the device. He leaned closer, anticipation tightening in his chest, only to feel a wave of disappointment wash over him once again. The caller wasn't the person he had been desperately yearning to hear from. âDude, why wonât you answer her? She must be worried since itâs late and youâre still not home.â Victor, who was seated in front of Lucas, suggested, but Lucas shot him a piercing glare at his words. Lucas exhaled deeply, lifted the glass tumbler from his desk, and drank the whiskey. The liquid lingered on his tongue for a brief moment before flowing down his throat, the fiery sensation teasing his throat. He reclined back in his chair and shut his eyes as memories of
âYes, those are my fucking terms; I would prefer my fortune go to charity than you cheating bastard!â Lucas' eyes widened; he thought he had managed to keep his relationship with Bianca a secret. âIt was a mistake; I won't want to repeat,â Lucas said, and Don Santiago chuckled. âOf course, that's why you couldn't keep your hands off her when you were banging her an hour ago in the restroom?! Today is your fucking wedding to my daughter, but you fuck another woman behind her back! You either sign it or I break this marriage today!â "Well, what about your daughter? What if she rather cheats on me? She's beautiful; all your men spot a hard-on in her presence. What if she asked me for a divorce because she fell in love? What if I want to divorce her because she cheated on me?â âMy daughter isn't like that; she's the purest woman I know!â âPeople change,â Lucas retorted. âIf my daughter cheats on you, you can have all my fortune.â âDon't bluff, you're just saying something yo
Reina sat at the dining table, the clinking of cutlery barely registering as the turmoil within her intensified. A storm of emotions raged inside her. âDid she really just agree to give Xavier a chance?â The thought echoed in her mind, a relentless whisper that gnawed at her conscience. What about her husband, the man who deserved her loyalty? Guilt washed over her like a tidal wave, threatening to pull her under. She had promised herself that she would prove to her husband that her fleeting moments with Xavier were nothing but a mistakeâyet here she was, entangled in an affair, repeatedly betraying the man she once vowed to love with someone she knew should be off-limits."Ahhh, damn it!" she screamed inwardly, her heart racing as heat rose to her cheeks. She shut her eyes tight, trying to hold back the hot tears that threatened to spill from their corners.The guilt was overwhelming, yet intertwined with an undeniable truth: her love for her husband, though deep and genuine, couldnâ
Thirty minutes later, Xavier and Reina emerged from the glass doors of the elevator, stepping into the dimly lit underground parking lot, with Xavier's warm hand resting against Reina's lower back as he guided her with a protective ease toward their car. On reaching the car, Xavier opened the door for Reina, who flashed him a bright, appreciative smile before elegantly getting into the plush interior. He joined her as the car pulled out of the parking lot. However, the car had reached the hotel entrance when suddenly, a figure stepping out of the car ahead caught Xavierâs attention; his heart skipped. It was the one person he didn't wish to encounter, not now. Instinctively, he turned to Reina, grasping her face with a firm but gentle hold, and pressed his lips against hers with a fierce intensity, his kiss a declaration of possession amidst the unexpected turmoil. Reina was taken by surprise when Xavier leaned in and pressed his lips against hers, a rush of warmth flooding her
âDid you miss me, mi amor?â Lucas asked, grinning.âHow did you get in?â Reina asked, looking in Xavier's direction, and like she had expected, he was approaching them with a deadly expression.âOh, about that, I got the invitation from your lover's father,â Lucas responded.âHow is that?â Reina asked as she couldn't understand why Xavier's father would do that. Questions creeping into her mind as she tried to make sense of Lucas' words.âBecause I'm his son,â Lucas revealed, his grin widening.âWhatâŠwhat?â Reina stuttered, her eyes widening with disbelief.âYes, mi amor, it turns out your lover is my brother, or I say, my little brother,â Lucas taunted, angry lines appearing on his forehead.âNo,â Reina muttered as she shook her head in denial and added weakly, âYou're lyingâŠââNo, I'm not,â Lucas said, his grip around Reina's waist tightening as he added in a low growl. âYou've been fucking my little brother, mi amor! And to think you even just fucked him a few minutes ago, and you'
An hour later, Xavier emerged from the steamy confines of his bathroom with Reina in his arms, and he gently sat her on the bed. Just then a knock echoed against the door. He walked over and opened it to reveal Dr. Emiliano alongside Olga, whose faces lit up with a knowing smile the moment their eyes landed on him. âWe brought everything you requested,â Dr. Emiliano proclaimed, as he tried to keep his voice steady and professional. But before he could continue, Olga held up a hand dryer, her eyes sparkling with mischief. âAnd a hand dryer! Didnât I tell you it would come in handy?â She asked Emiliano as she cast a sneaky glance at Xavierâs damp hair, letting her gaze linger.âYes, yes, my woman is always right,â Dr. Emiliano replied, a hint of admiration lacing his tone. Xavier frowned slightly, feeling a strange mix of amusement and unease at their loving banter. With an air of aloofness, he interjected, âIâm ready when youâre done with your little reunion.ââSorry,â Dr. Emiliano
âWere you going to fuck her if I didn't arrive?!â Reina demanded angrily. This was the last she was allowing others to stumble on her emotions. âReinaâŠâ Xavier said, reaching for her hand, but she recoiled from his touch and slapped his hand away.âDon't fucking touch me! Answer me!â She snapped.âYes! He would have been deep inside me if you had learned to stay out ofâŠâ Nadia didn't finish speaking when Reina silenced her with a hard slap. She wanted to vent her anger, and the person she was already angry at just gave herself on a silver platter.âShut your mouth, you shameless and unfaithful woman! Taking delight in cheating on your husband with his friend!â Reina shot angrily.âReina, please... Iââ Xavier began, but Nadia, who was clutching her cheek, interrupted him in an angry voice.âHow dare you lay a hand on me?!â Nadia let out. Retaliating, she swung her hand to slap Reina, but Xavier intercepted, angrily seizing Nadia's hand midair, and angrily shoved her aside; she twisted
âAhh, I love how rough you are handling me,â Nadia moaned, leaning into Xavier as tears of pleasure began to form in her eyes. Xavier, seeing that, pushed her away as she began coughing rapidly. âCut to the chase; I know you purposely misled her!â Xavier growled, tucking a hand in his pocket.âNoâŠâ Nadia let out with a feigned astonishment before explaining, âI just wanted you to know itâs been a month since I last saw my husband. Iâm pregnant, and he wonât answer my calls. But since youâre like a brother to him, I was thinking you could help me speak to him since the both of you are here.ââYou expect me to believe that?â Xavier questioned with a raised eyebrow. âNo, because I know itâs you, Xavier,â Nadia said, placing her fingertip below Xavier's chest as she slowly and seductively began tracing up and stopping right on his chest as she demanded, her voice trembling with pleasure. âWhere is my husband, Xavier?ââHe didnât attend the event,â Xavier said, feeling his breath hitch
âReina? What are you doing here?â Olga asked, her voice laced with surprise as she rose to her feet the moment Reina stepped into the penthouse. She could feel the air suddenly charged with tension.âWhy didnât you tell me?â Reina demanded, her words cutting through the silence like a sharp knife. Olga's gaze fell upon the glistening tears that streamed down Reina's cheeks, and she moved closer, concern etched across her face.âWhat are you talking about? And why are you crying?â Olga inquired, her tone steady yet filled with a deep worry.âThe fact that Xavier is already married and has a daughter!â Reina cried out, her voice rising in anguish, the weight of her own acknowledgment hanging heavily in the air.âNo, I think thereâs a misunderstanding,â Olga replied, her brow furrowed as she tried to process Reinaâs frantic words. Confusion danced in her mind as she searched for clarity.âMarried?â Dr. Emiliano interjected, standing up from the sofa, his expression a mix of confusion and
âYou have a daughter?â Reina choked out, her voice barely above a whisper, as the weight of the moment settled down on her. She gazed up at Xavier, her heart racing in a chaotic rhythm. In that fleeting instant, she had hoped she was mistakenâperhaps the little girl wasnât running towards them, but rather racing to someone behind them. Or maybe, just maybe, the child had confused Xavier with the strange man who bore his striking resemblance. But deep down, she knew she wasn't wrong; Xavier unmistakably knew this little girl.âDaddy,â Katya exclaimed, throwing her arms around Xavierâs legs, her face lighting up with innocence and joy.âKatya? Where is your mommy?â Xavier asked, kneeling before her, his brow furrowed with confusion.âI'm right here,â an alluring voice exclaimed from ahead, and Xavier looked up just as Nadia appeared from the crowd, walking toward them in a stunning wine-satin strapless gown that shimmered under the light. The dress had a daring slit right above her left
âI wouldn't advise that,â came Alfonso's cautious but teasing tone.âWhat the fuck?â Xavier exclaimed, spinning around in surprise to find Alfonso standing behind him. âWhat the hell are you doing here?âHowever, before Alfonso could respond, Alexandre's bright voice sliced through the tension.âMummy!â Alexandre called out, his little legs carrying him swiftly toward his mother. The air in the room shifted as all eyes turned toward the elevator, where a striking figure that momentarily stole everyone's breath stood. âYes, my love,â Reina replied, her voice soft and warm as she bent slightly to cradle Alexandre's cheek in her hand, a gesture filled with the kind of affection only a mother can provide. âWow, Mummy! You look so pretty, like the stars!â Alexandre exclaimed, his innocent delight lighting up the space. A wave of smiles spread among the onlookers, each face reflecting the childâs admiration for his mother.âThank you, my sweetheart,â Reina said, her smile glowing as bright
Inside the enormous grandeur of the banquet hall, rich chandeliers cast a warm, inviting glow from above, their crystals shimmering like stars in the night, and each table, elegantly adorned with pristine white linens, is decorated with delicate glassware, vibrant floral arrangements, and polished dinnerware, all meticulously arranged beside shining cutlery that gleams in the soft light. Professional waiters, dressed in sharp black and white uniforms, glide easily through the hall, balancing chilled champagne and an array of colorful appetizers that entice the eyes and tease the palate. The smooth sounds of classic jazz music play and fill the air with ease, creating an atmosphere of effortless sophistication as guests, dressed in their finest clothes, continue to arrive, laughter and conversation mingling with the music.Every moment is captured by towering cameras stationed throughout the hall, recording every detail of the event. At the entrance, Xavier, the host of the evening,
~One week later.~ Reina lay weakly in the bed, her chest heaving up and down from the mind-blowing orgasm she had just experienced. Her fingers were still entangled in Xavier's hair as he continued to lick her dry. âNow it's time to go to my heaven,â Xavier said hoarsely. He hovered over Reina and thrust his hard dick into her. âAaaahh!â Reina cried, just as the bedroom door opened. âDaddy?â Alexandre called out with a frightened expression as he looked at his naked dad on top of his mom. âWhat are you doing to my mommy?â He angrily yelled, storming toward his dad. âFuck!â Xavier cursed throatily, pulling the sheet over them as he painfully pulled out of Reina. âSon, I'm not doing anything to your mother,â Xavier explained. âLiar!â Alexandre cried, tears forming in his eyes as he stopped his advance towards his parents, âI heard Mummy shout!â âNo, son, your daddy and I are just playing,â Reina finally said after finding her voice. Seeing the tears in Alexandre's eyes, she knew
