~Cali~
I was a hundred percent convinced Gio had the gift of persuasion. He must be an incubus that lures girls with his charm and prowess.
“If you’re not here with me, where will you be right now?” Since we can’t ask something too personal, random questions filled the air.
Sitting by the infinity pool close to the patio, a glass of wine in our hands, our feet dangling on the water as we lounge on the poolside. There is too little space between us, a wine glass wide distance.
He hasn’t touched me, although I crave it. I’m just enjoying this little talk we are having, laughing, learning a thing or two about his personality.
Gio is a sweet guy, I wonder if he is like this with his girls. A pa
~Cali~ Gio’s hands came to cup my heavy breast, his thumb brushing over the dusky peaks of my nipples. Back and forth his fingers went, playing with my puckered buds in circles, teasing me. It took all my courage not to close my eyes, not to look away from the intense dark golden eyes staring up at me. “Wouldn’t want it any other way, Princess,” and with that, his mouth clasped around one of my pebbled nipples, making me moan his name, loud. The sensation of his soft lips around my areola, the feel of his hand to stimulate the neglected one had me arching my back. Every glide, caress and lick of his warm mouth had me squirming. I don’t know if I can last long if he continues this torture, but I tried my hardest to hold everything in.
~Cali~Everything is perfect. My body’s awakened, I can feel life flowing in abundance all over my veins. Rejuvenated and tired, and I was sore in all my feminine parts, there was no denying it. And my skin also bears Gio’s marks, yet I’m okay with everything, love it even.To wake up alone in bed is nothing new to me. I didn’t expect Gio to sleep beside me, yet he held me all night. My body was beyond wasted, but that didn’t stop me from savoring the gentleness of Gio’s fingers that ran through my hair over and over until I fell asleep. The same with the warmth of his body that made the purpose of duvet unnecessary.He wrapped me in the cocoon of his powerful arms, and I slept like a baby.Edward never held me like Gio did. All I woul
~Evan~I never understood how one girl changed my best friend in just a short amount of time. Devin and I have been friends for a long time and we fooled around with girls. Our pants’ zippers are like revolving doors for girls to come and go as we please.Since his relationship with Ren shattered like waves crashing in the shore three years ago, Devin dated no one again. He stopped fooling around and poured his attention to his business, expanding his empire of hotels all across the globe.‘You will understand when you fall in love,’ this is his exact words to me.Love is something I know nothing about. Girls are complicated creatures. I’d rather keep myself from being bombarded with complaints about the amount of calories in their food. There was
~Evan~ After driving Princess to her place on Monday morning, I returned to Devin’s place to finish what I came here for. Devin treasured this house the most among all of his property. His mom loved this place, and whenever they’d escape to this paradise, Aunt Cassandra always tagged me along. She loved me the same way she loved Devin and Eve, and I vowed to keep this house as beautiful as it is. In memory of her. With local help from Barbados, the month long renovation might take just two weeks. Finishing this project early means I could spend more time with my Princess. “Did they get the right color this time?” I asked Mike, the local contractor I hired for this project. He nodded, handing me the 24x24 natural stone co
~Cali~Gio is annoyingly insatiable, and I like every second of him being possessive of me. No one has ever made me feel wanted the way he wanted me. Not even Edward.I can’t help but compare my relationship with Edward with this agreement I have with Gio. It’s not fair to compare two different people, not with any circumstances, but yeah. Even sex with Gio is miles away from what Edward and I had.Edward proposed to me the night of our college graduation. At that time, Dad was still having issues with my sister Ren and Edward’s family business was on the brink of bankruptcy. We both have obligations to our families, so I decided that it’ll be best for our engagement to be kept between us for the time being.It was pretty late when I learned he wa
~Cali~Looking at the calendar available on the nightstand made me realize a week has gone by from that day I hated the most. Valentine’s Day.I totally lost track of everything. My sister’s plan worked, coupled with the bliss that Gio brought into my life. The wound I nursed for three years looked like a scratch compared to this pain I am feeling. The sad part is, I don’t even understand why.Time stood still, and all that mattered to me was him. Even when we’re not together, he is all I could think about and I hate myself for doing so.He is trouble; I know this since the beginning of this agreement. The warning bells and red flags flashed in my face, but that didn’t stop me from falling deep into his arms. A beautiful man like him would n
~Cali~ Gio is sick. Poor thing was shivering the entire night, and I couldn’t even bring him to the hospital. If I take him there, they will throw a lot of questions about who he is. I know nothing about him apart from he’s good looking, amazing in bed, sweet and irresistible. Apparently, the beach where I spent my morning yesterday is in front of Gio’s cabin. The place looks oddly familiar, though. I can’t point where or when I saw this place, but it felt as if I’ve been here before. ‘I want more with you,’ Gio kept mumbling until he almost fainted on the beach. Good thing his place is close and I could get him here before he passed out. He looks pretty exhausted. I am curious as hell about what happened to his mom and sister, but I know I can’t ask that from him. T
~Cali~“Gio…” I poked his ears, “baby bear,” his nose, “babe,” his lips. He grabbed my fingers, pushing it away from his face.He was mad at me, so mad that he ended up cooking pasta puttanesca for me. It’s nice to know that we both have that drive to turn into cooking when we’re lost or thinking deeply. But I hate this silent treatment.“Buonissimo culo,” I groaned. (yummy ass)It’s been half a day, and he’s still mad at me. What can I do? I haven’t met a person in my life who doesn’t know the difference between Cinderella and Rapunzel. Even my dad can distinguish the two Princesses.I finished eating my food minutes ago, and Gio just
Aw… and that’s a wrap, lovelies. I hope you enjoyed your ride with Cali and Evan. They’ll be signing off for now, until Klaus comes out. Yep, he’s bound to come out soon. Although the title might drift off from the series of the boys because I already saw a few books with that title, I believe you will know it's his story. ;) If you are looking for another book to read, check out my novel Falling For My Husband. It's already up on my profile. Again, thank you. Please comment and leave a review if this book is worth the ride. I’d love to hear from you. xx See you later, lovelies…
So… I don’t know if anyone would want to know what happens with Nathan… but, I believe his character needs a little peace, although not a total closure but peace between the two brothers… I really feel bad for him throughout this book… *sigh* xx This happened six months after the wedding ~~ ~Evan~ I love my wife. By now it’s clear that I’d do anything for her… just not this... she asked me to come and visit Nathan in prison. He was sentenced to five years’ imprisonment for attempted rape and conspiracy. It was damn easy for him. And now Cali is asking me to do the impossible. There’s no denying that his father had something to do with the trial. He’s a damn powerful man, but
~Evan~ One year later... Bridgetown Barbados. This is where everything began. This place will forever hold a special place in our lives. The soft sand, cold under the soles of my bare feet, sent a smile on my lips as I relished the tickling sensation of the water lapping over my tired skin. The tide is still high and I admired the waves from a distance, huge and powerful, as if they could destroy anything in its path. Magnus Construction is just a distant memory now. I am handling my new company, The Ár mbaile Constructions. I have accepted no penny from my wife but my father-in-law is a different story. Before we flew to Ireland for our wedding, I asked for Cali’s hand from her father. He gave us his blessing in one con
I believe you need pampering, my love ;) enjoy these free chapters.. xx ~~. ~Cali~ Our wedding is an intimate one. I guess it has become a tradition in our family to have weddings away from people’s prying eyes. We flew to Castlebar, where Evan’s mother and sister are residing. I was nervous as hell as the plane landed in Ireland. I don’t know if his mom would like me or not. His sister Aoibhe is the only person I got to talk to over the phone for the details of our wedding and I knew we would be really good sisters. Shawn and Daniel flew three days early to secure every detail regarding the preparation. “Princess?” Evan pressed my hand as we drove to his mom’s place. Our family and friends came with us, but they’ll be s
~Cali~ It took me a moment to calm down. These last few days have been so overwhelming, I can barely keep up with my emotions. Olivia, sitting beside me, is still clasping my hands in her delicate ones. There is something about a mother’s touch. It’s like magic hands that penetrate through my heart that magically squeeze away all my worries, as if the soothing sensation tells me that everything is going to be okay. Ren has that ability to calm me. Now I have another motherly warmth to take refuge into in Olivia’s form. I sipped the chamomile tea that she prepared for me. The warm liquid slipped down my esophagus, soothing my nerves. “H-how are you not mad at me?” I finally found my voice, and gazed into the eyes of the w
~Cali~ Tangled in each other’s arms, we have had no sleep yet, both spent and exhausted. My head rests on Evan’s chest, fingers tracing the patterns of his perfect pectorals while my ears pressed above his heart, its beating gentle and calm. “Why do you want to marry me, Princess?” He asked, fingers threading through my sweat-damp hair. I looked up at him, chin resting above my closed knuckles. He’s as beautiful as ever, even with those worry lines on the side of his eyes and forehead. “I need you.” Evan regarded me as if he’s waiting for another kind of explanation. “If this is about my company, I don’t want it, baby. I do want to be with you - forever, but if you’re doing this because of the case-” With my forefinger o
~Cali~It was three in the morning when Evan returned to bed, his usual routine. He smells of mint and eucalyptus, masking the scent of bourbon. He thought I was asleep, kissing my forehead before wrapping his arms around my waist.“Evan?” I spoke, my voice was hoarse from the emotions I’ve been holding in since I heard his talk with Sander.“Did I wake you?” he leaned on his hand, propping himself up with his elbows digging on our pillow. I turned to face him, his hands instantly coming up to brush my cheek, up and down, soft caress with the back of his hand.His wrist is healed now, he sprained it again when he punched Nate, but he’s nursing a wound that can’t be cured with any kind of over-the-counter medicines.
~Cali~ “Fuck,” Nate stood up, wiping his bleeding lip with the back of his hand, “you will pay for this.” Evan cupped my face, “get in the car, Cali.” He kissed my forehead and Nate continued to mumble threats after threats. “You shouldn’t be here, Evan,” I whispered. My brain is finally working. We broke the deal with Nate, with him being here. His company - everything we worked for will go to waste… because of me. “She’s right. You should’ve stayed away,” Nate butted in. “It’s okay, baby, get in the car, please?” Evan pleaded. I waved my head. “Evan… he will release those files.” Evan sighed, closing his eyes. “I don’t care ab
~Cali~It hurts everywhere, but the pain in my head is the dominant one. A continuous whopping pound kept ringing, hammering my brains out.I shifted in my lying position, hoping for an angle to relieve a little of the throbbing. The jasmine fragrance on the pillow tells me I am in my room even without needing sight. I buried my face deeper into the cushion, wishing the feather feel of the material would grace me with little ease - it didn’t.“Hey.” My eyes forced open in recognition of Evan’s voice.He’s here, sitting on the chair beside my bed, gazing at me with pale honey eyes. “Evan…” I breathe out, forgetting about the headache I was nursing seconds ago. He’s always been a good medicine of mine.
