Melanie’s POVI was so mad throughout the trip home and it didn’t go unnoticed by Ralph and Alice. The moment I got home, Alice dragged me to the living room, looking concerned.I didn’t hesitate to tell her about the shitty day I had.“And you don’t want to do anything about it?” she asked."What can I do, Alice? I don't have the kind of influence or connections Lydia has. I'm at a disadvantage here," I replied."Surely, there has to be someone higher than him that can make him change his mind," she insisted."It doesn't really work that way," I answered. "He's the attending physician and it's his OR. He has a right to choose who gets to be in it."“That is so unfair.”“Tell me about it,” I murmured.“I’m sorry you have to go through such injustice, my dear. I promise this is just for a while,” Alice said.“You can’t make promises like that, Alice. You don’t work at the hospital,” I said.“That doesn’t stop me from assuring you that everything would be fine,” she said.I smiled at he

Adriano’s POVIf I died at this moment, I was going to die a very happy man, but I would be pissed that I had to die when I finally got a taste of sweetness.Melanie kissed me. She fucking kissed me and I didn’t have to threaten or ask her to. She did it of her own free will.Not a lot of things surprised me but this took me by surprise, so much so that I held still trying to convince myself that this was really happening.But I felt her lips disentangling from mine all too soon. She probably thought my unresponsiveness was because I didn’t want to kiss her but she couldn’t be more wrong and I’ll be damned if I let her go.Grabbing her neck just as she drew back from me, I crushed my mouth to hers, tasting the goodness that was all, Melanie but it wasn’t enough so I thrust my tongue into her mouth and deepened the kiss.She moaned lightly and responded to me, letting me lead her the way I wanted. It was like I

Adriano’s POVMelanie was going to be mad at me but if Thompson valued his life and did his job well, that wasn’t going to happen.I was currently in his office, watching him shake like a leaf. If he didn’t need his hands for surgeries, I would have cut off a finger or two but I was feeling generous today and he had, Melanie to thank for that.I spent the night thinking of her, that kiss. The kiss that kept me up kept replaying on a loop in my head and I was painfully hard. I didn’t hesitate to rub one out with images of her in my head.I wondered how she would look on her knees, taking my cock in that sweet mouth of hers. That was all it took for me to come all over my hand before I could go to bed last night.Melanie didn’t run away like I thought she would, the first chance she got after I let go of her hand. She sat down and had dinner with me. It was a quiet dinner and she spent most of it avoiding my gaze but I d

Melanie’s POVI kissed, Adriano.Oh, my god I kissed, Adriano!Not only did he kiss me back but I enjoyed every moment of that toe-curling kiss that I almost didn’t want it to end. Thank God for Alice, if not for her interruption, I didn’t know what I would have done. All I can say is that I wouldn’t have been responsible for my actions.Unlike the other guys I’ve kissed, Adriano was all man. He was a man in a world of boys. His body was so hard, toned and strong. I felt protected holding on to his shoulder. Like I could let go and everything would be okay.When the sexual fog cleared from my eyes after the kiss, I wanted to hide out in my room for at least the next week but he wasn’t having it. Adriano and I talked and proceeded to have a quiet dinner all the while, Alice was mysteriously occupied and couldn’t show up but I knew better.She was trying to give us privacy and I wasn’t ready for her to give me the ‘

Melanie’s POVI watched the Whipple procedure from the gallery of the OR and I had to admit. Even just watching, it felt pretty exhilarating.Dr. Danny might be a douche-bag but he was good at his job, I could admit as much. Lydia also did a good job, she didn’t fumble with the instruments and remained calm when the patient coded for a few minutes.She was going to make a very good nurse if only she could work on her attitude. Lydia's attitude was the biggest thing working against her but what could I do? I wasn't responsible for another person's actions and if she wanted to remain a bitch, then she could be my guest.Thankfully, the patient survived the surgery. He had a long and painful recovery ahead of him, but overall, it was a job well done.I didn’t watch the whole procedure because I still had work to do and only used the free time I had to do a quick check at intervals but I heard some residents who watched the ent

Melanie’s POVAfter a few more moments of back and forth between me and Hayley, I agreed to cover the rest of her shift so he could go home and get ready for her date.The rest of the shift was uneventful and I was grateful that I didn't cross paths with, Lydia. Maybe she was so tired that she passed out in one of the on-call rooms, I didn't really care what she did as long as she kept far away from me.I did get some good news though, Luke could be discharged in a week. Everything was looking good, he wasn't rejecting the organ, the incision site had been healing well and he had made great strides in physical therapy, all good news.I was happy for him and his mom. Hopefully, May would be able to spend more time with his son and Luke can finally act like a normal middle-school kid, maybe play a sport or two because god knows that they have been through more than their fair share of troubles.Even though I was busier than n

Melanie’s POVThe night was uphill from that moment on. Adriano and I had dinner together and he made a suggestion that shocked me to my core. He asked us to watch a movie together.So here we were, in the movie room with a bowl of popcorn and a pitcher of juice, arguing about which movie we should watch.“There’s no way I’m watching a chick movie with you,” he said.“But I don’t want to watch a horror film, they’re scary,” I argued.“That’s what makes it exciting, plus it’s not real,” he replied."It doesn't matter! For the purpose of the movie, it is very much real."Adriano sighed, clearly frustrated with me. “I’m still not watching a chick movie.”“A rom-com is not a chick movie. It’s just laid back and relaxed compared to what you want to subject me to,” I replied.“It’s just a bunch of people acting silly because they’re in love and laughing about it,” he said.

Melanie’s POVLast night didn’t end the way I thought it would but it was still a great night. I was too weak to stick to taking it slow but, Adriano on the other hand, was strong enough for the both of us and I was grateful for that.He was actually a fun person to be around. After we gave up on the movie since none of us were really paying attention anyway, we talked about a lot of things. Adriano asked me a lot of questions about my family and what it was like growing up in Texas. All the while I spoke, he was so attentive, hanging onto my every word as if I was telling him the secret cure for cancer.It felt good to have someone’s attention that way. The way he looked at me like while I was talking like I was the most important thing and nothing else could take his attention made me feel flutters in my belly.When we finally decided to call it a night, he walked me to my door and gave me a kiss on t

Adriano’s POVThe soft light of the living room barely cut through the weight of the night as I watched her. I blinked thinking I might have imagined the words I heard earlier.Melanie stood a few feet away, still in her jeans and that worn leather jacket she seemed to love so much. I noticed because ever since the cold rolled in, she had been wearing more of that jacket. She looked like trouble and comfort rolled into one, the kind of combination that could destroy a man if he wasn’t careful and I’ve never really been careful around my girl. In fact, I was fast losing the patience I thought I was holding on to and if she was messing with me, I would be pissed.Now, though, something had shifted. Her eyes met mine, and I knew we were past the point of trying to avoid the sexual tension that existed in perpetuity between us.“Kiss me,” she said softly, but there was nothing timid in her tone. It wasn’t a question or even a

Melanie’s POVAdriano led me into the restaurant and we were led towards a private booth. The servers were very polite and a little too eager to server but it was to be expected.The man booked the whole restaurant to take his girlfriend on a date. It didn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out he was influential.The food was amazing!I had a hard time deciding between two dishes but I ended up going for the chicken cacciatore while, Adriano ordered the second dish I was considering for himself.I tried not to swoon at how attentive he was to me because I know for a fact that he ordered that dish because of me but I didn’t want to draw attention to it.And as I suspected, when our food arrived and we began eating, he asked me if I wanted to try a bite of his food and somehow, half of his parmesan ended up on my plate.Thank God he ordered enough servings.The conversation also flowed freely all

Melanie’s POVI clocked out and ran to change out of my scrubs, ignoring the numerous eyes that were on me. Some were staring at me with approval but most of them had looks of jealousy and envy, like I somehow stole what belonged to them.Well, that was none of my business. The fact was, Adriano is my man and they can look all they want but can't have him. So that was one way to look at it. Besides, I wasn't a stranger to being stared at.I changed out of my regular clothes and when I got out. She was glaring at daggers at me but there was no mistaking the envy in her eyes when she saw, Adriano earlier.I smiled at her. Take that you petty, conniving, bitch. Yes, you can think you're all that and try to take away surgeries from me but you'll never have my man.I got to the nurses’ station, half expecting to meet, Hayley alone but to my surprise, she was engrossed in a conversation with, Adriano and they were laughing.

Melanie’s POV“Ugh… you guys are so cute it’s disgusting,” Aria said, once again interrupting our moment.“Shut up, Ari!” Adriano barked at her.“Whatever, I’m going to be with, Alice in the kitchen so wrap this up because we’re all having dinner together and I don’t want you making googly eyes at each other at the dinner table,” she said.“You still haven’t said it, Melanie,” Adriano said when we were finally alone. “I need to hear you say it.”“You need to hear me call you, baby?” He nodded. “Yes, I do because you’re mine and I’m yours. Every part of me belongs to you. So I’m your baby and it feels fucking good to hear you admit it.”I would have laughed if he wasn't being incredibly sweet. A grown-ass man was happy I called him, baby. Now that was a first.“Still, you shouldn’t have yelled at your sister that way,” I told him."She can handle it besides how do you expect me to let out

Melanie’s POVAdriano and I spent the day watching movies and munching on junk food after he finished the entire jar of cookies I made for him.I’d never seen someone that obsessed with cookies and it’s actually funny to see, Adriano react that way to the cookies.I must admit that it made me feel good that he loved my baking, now it got me wanting to do more. Maybe bake a pie or some muffins. I might start a bit easier and go with brownies instead but we'll see.When we got tired of staying indoors, he suggested we go out for a walk around the grounds and I gladly agreed.I had never really wandered around the house except the insides. I knew that the staff quarters were also in the compound but I'd never been there, and neither do I know how they live over there. It turned out the quarters were an array of bungalows for the staff.That way everyone had their privacy. There was also a large kitchen. Apparently, th

Adriano’s POVI have never loved being injured more than this moment.Melanie has been treating me like an incapacitated child and I had no complaints.Thanks to the ibuprofen she made me take after breakfast, the pain in my arm wasn’t unbearable and thank God I gave in to her.The pain was quite intense at night and the only comfort I had was having Melanie sleeping in my arms since I was doing a shit job of that.However, she woke up at various intervals throughout the night to check on me and I did a good job pretending to be asleep at those times. I knew that because she didn’t dispute what I said when I told her I slept great.“Thankfully you didn’t pop any of the stitches in your sleep,” Melanie said. She was in the middle of changing the bandages on my arm.“I’m a good patient,” I told her.“Whatever,” she scoffed and finished bandaging my arm.“Thanks for taking care of me, Melanie,” I said.“You don’t need to thank me but you’re welcome all the same,” she replied.I leaned i

Melanie’s POVI woke up feeling something poking me from behind I immediately knew what it was.I was tempted to rub myself on him but, Adriano was still asleep and I didn’t want him to wake up while I was in the middle of whatever I was doing because I wasn’t sure how I would recover from that embarrassment.I felt him stir a bit and I feigned sleep, but it turned out I wasn’t that great of an actress because he knew I was awake.“Good morning, little nurse,” he whispered in my ear. “You can stop pretending to be asleep now.”I groaned. “You’re annoying in the morning,” I said.“Nope, I’m a ray of sunshine especially because I get to wake up next to you,” he replied.I ignored him and rolled over so I could face him.“Did you sleep well?” I asked.“Yeah, I did. I told you I can handle a little pain,” he answered.That wasn’t what I saw when I woke up a few times in the middle of the night to check on him. His face was contoured in pain and it was obvious that he was having a fitful s

Melanie’s POVAfter Adriano had his dinner, I gave him some painkillers that he took grudgingly but I put my foot down and insisted so there was no way for him to win that argument with me.“Thank you, Melanie,” he said.I was drying off the dish he used while he was keeping me company in the kitchen.“For what?””Taking care of me,” he replied.“I didn’t do much. I just stitched you up,” I responded.“You did more than that. You were my safe space. I went out today knowing I had you to come home to and I’ve never had that,” he said.I frowned in confusion. “You’ve never had a safe space?”"I've never had someone to come home to. Someone is waiting up and worried about me. I've never had that and you gave me that. You shined your light in my dark world and gave it color."God, he was being so sweet right now that I was about to cry. “What about your family? I know you really care about them, aren’t they your safe space?”“They’re bound by blood to always be on my side but you aren’t,”

Melanie’s POVOh, my God!I just let, Adriano finger fuck me!It was the most amazing sexual experience I’ve ever had and I didn’t even get to see his dick. Now I was embarrassed.I didn’t know if I would be able to look him in the eye ever again so I buried my face in his chest, trying to avoid the inevitable post-orgasmic haze conversation that we were bound to have any moment now.“Don’t do that, little nurse,” Adriano whispered in my ear.“I’m not doing anything,” I replied but it sounded more like a mumble.“You’re not looking at me and I have to wonder whether or not you regret what just happened,” he said.I raised my head to look him in the eye. “I don’t regret it,” I stated matter of factly.He smiled at me. “Good, because watching you come apart on my fingers was the most amazing thing I’ve ever watched and if you had regretted it, that would only piss me off.”Then he put the fingers that had been inside me just moments ago into his mouth and sucked my juices right off it a
