I smiled, and took a seat beside her. The food arrived right then, and I realized I hadn't had breakfast. I was starving, and the delicious smell of the food wasn't helping either.

"Let's eat first and then I'll tell you everything about me." I said, and she nodded.

For the rest of the afternoon, we chatted, laughed and ate until our stomachs couldn't hold anymore. We were like best friends already. Valerie was a funny and easy going person. She reminded me so much of myself and it was refreshing.

"So, Avelina. What do you love doing?" Valerie asked, sipping her water.

"I love cooking, baking. It's always been a passion of mine. Actually my favorite thing to do." I said, my eyes gleaming with pride. I remembered the days I would spend with my mother in the kitchen while we baked every recipes known to man. It was something she made me love doing and I found out it was a favorite hobby of mine.

"Really?" She exclaimed, her eyes shining. "Then you have to come over one da

    A V E L I N A I found a beautiful peach apron in the kitchen and put it on, tying the strings around my waist. I had already searched through the kitchen and found the ingredients to make a nice Chicken cacciatore. It was simple, and easy. I had already gotten started on chopping the vegetables. I was so engrossed in what I was doing, I didn't hear someone enter the kitchen. "What the fuck are you doing?" Enzo's harsh voice startled me, and I let out a gasp as I jumped. I was sure I had almost lost a finger, because the knife almost slipped, and it was a good thing I managed to pull away. But it still managed to graze my finger and give it a cut. I let out a hiss as blood came out of the wound. "Damn it." I cursed under my breath, looking down at my injured finger. I heard Enzo curse and walk towards me, before taking my hand in his and pulling me towards the sink. "What are you doing, Avelina? Why the fuck are you wearing an apron?" He asked as he held my finger under the tap,

I closed the door of his bedroom and walked to the office.I knocked twice and I heard a cold 'come in' from the other side. I opened the door and came face to face with him. He was seated on his chair, shirtless, his upper torso on full display.His strong biceps flexed as he typed away on the laptop. My eyes fell on his abs and my mouth went dry. He had the most chiseled six pack abs I had ever seen. The V-lines of his lower stomach were a sight to see and his skin was smooth and tan.I gulped. He had tattoos that covered his right arm, and I wondered what they meant.My eyes went back to his abs, and I had the sudden urge to trace every muscle and dip. I shook my head, not understanding where these thoughts were coming from.I wasn't supposed to think about him like that."Why are you staring at me like that?" He asked, snapping me out of my thoughts.I cleared my throat. "Here." I said, holding out

    A V E L I N AA week passed by and things were getting more and more frustrating. I hated Lorenzo with a passion, and yet, he had managed to make me wet on multiple occasions. The way he touched me was unlike anything I had experienced before. It was sinful and dirty, and I hated him even more for making me feel this way.The worst part was, he would tease me and then leave.Just like the other day, when he had made me soak my panties. Touched me in a way no other man has, and left me hanging. I wanted to smack him and fuck him at the same time.The way he touched me was sinful. He would touch me like no one ever has, and I would fall apart. His touch was rough and his voice was dirty and filthy, and yet, I found myself craving it.I knew I should have hated it. Hated him. But I couldn't.I was confused and frustrated. I was mad at him for being so cruel, but I was even madder at myself for wanting him so badly.It was a never ending cycle.The worst part was, Lorenzo didn't have sex

A liar and a cheat. I can't believe I was with you for so long. I can't believe I didn't notice.""I'm sorry, baby." He whispered, walking towards me."Don't." I told him, stepping back.

I stood in front of the mirror and began to remove the pins from my hair. After a few seconds, I gave up. I was too drunk and too tired."I'm useless." I mumbled and sat down on the bed. "God, why is my life a mess."Suddenly, the door opened and Lorenzo came in. "Hey.""Can you help me?" I asked him, pointing to the pins in my hair."Sure." He said, and sat down beside me. He started removing the pins from my hair, his fingers grazing my scalp and neck. "I'm sorry about tonight.""It's not your fault. I should have expected this.""I should have warned you, but I didn't.""I guess he has every right to be mad.
