In the Billionaires' Web Friction (one)
EVANGELINE.Without further words or an explanation, I was hauled into his arms and pressed against his chest, hard. The tension in the air overwhelmed my spirit, causing me to inhale and exhale deeply like my death had come. Maybe, it had. I didn't try to move away. I couldn't. Rather, I stared down at his red, inviting lips as he stared at mine, blinking slowly before looking up at me briefly as if mentally seeking permission. Time stilled for us, and while in his arms, I felt all of my sadness melt away. How did I let him have so much power over me? I could feel the rhythmic beating of his heart sync with mine as he held me in his arms, under the dark sky of a thousand stars, before he reeled me in with his index finger below my jaw, and his lips crashed into mine. I stopped breathing. I stopped functioning. Axel took me slow and steady, to a heaven that only existed when his lips parted slowly and molded with mine. I rode the wind and floated in the clouds, melting against him

AXEL.I watched her red, sex-stricken face as she stared at me through her eyelashes and gently kneed in between my legs while she slowly stroked my dick. The smooth head gave a slight flex, surrendering to her teasing, and I growled ferally— feeling every sense of rationality slip through my fingers. My jaw ticked as she increased her slow strokes while I grabbed onto the sheets through this rollercoaster of ecstasy and unbridled pleasure.Was she usually this freaky? It was like she was possessed by a whole new personality. I thought internally, but the way she touched me next had the question flying out of my mouth. Evangeline, panting and restless, had no response to my question, rather, she tilted her head back, and with a coy smile, she said, "Now…to the main course."It's funny how much effect a sentence could have on a person. I exhaled deeply, feeling blood shoot to my groin. The pleading look she gave me almost made me cum there and then. Slowly, her warm tongue came in cont

EVANGELINE.I opened my eyes closely and sat up, shielding my sight from the shining sun that permeated its way through the curtains. The first thing I could register was the splitting headache as my head pounded as though it had been hit by a hammer.Sighing, I sat, leaning against the headrest and pulling up the sheets to cover my bare body. The weight of last night's activities dawned on me; my bones felt heavy, and they throbbed painfully. It was the good kind of pain, I wouldn't lie, the one that came with hundreds of memories that made me hot again.Last night was the best night of my life. I still felt Axel's touch linger on my skin, and I craved him even more. My pussy throbbed at the thought of having him inside of me again. I'd do anything for a continuation of last night. I looked to his side of the bed and registered his absence. The sheet was still tousled, so I reached for it and pulled it up, hugging it closer to my body and inhaling it till I was engulfed by his scent

EVANGELINETalk about us. The very talk that I thought I was going to run away from. I swallowed hard, feeling the lump rising in my throat, and faced him, hoping my face wasn't as red as I imagined it to be.Axel's hands were tucked in his pockets, and he leaned against the wall, waiting for me to say something. I hugged my arms nervously, looking at everything else but his face before I began to feel everything I wasn't supposed to. "So…last night happened," I chuckled nervously. When I said last night, I meant everything, including the fact that I'd walked in on him and caught him almost having sex with another girl, and I knew without a doubt that she was still on the ship. Well, except someone volunteered to throw her into the water."Yeah, yeah, it did," he agreed, his eyes still stuck on me while I burned on the inside. A small moment of silence passed before he began to talk again. "And…I still want to say I'm sorry about what happened, too.""What was that?" I asked, pretend

AXEL.Evening came rather too fast after my talk with Evangeline, and I haven't even had the time to redeem myself. I had a feeling we didn't end things on a note she liked, but honestly, I still didn't know what else I could do or say to make things better. All I could do was stare at her from across the room amidst the party and celebration going on. God, I wanted her.I did want her so fucking bad, and I still couldn't find out the root of those emotions. It was very new to me, and Evangeline wasn't understanding that aspect very much.I didn't like it that I had to be away from her like this. I watched a smile grow on her face as she continued to talk with a particular guy that had to be swarming around her ever since the party began. Watching them talk and her laugh just made me feel so queasy and uneasy for no reason. It felt like my heart was being clawed at without Mercy. Why didn't she laugh this heartily when I talked with her instead? The banging music couldn't overshadow
In the Billionaires' Web Getting out
AXEL.Somehow, we ended up in the same room as last night, and we barely made it past the door before I threw my arms all over her and kicked the door shut. I held her head up and kissed her, forcefully opening her mouth with mine. My lips were hot and urgent against her, and I slammed into her like my life fucking depended on it. "Hm…" she moaned as she cupped my face and kicked her shoes off. "This is a pretty weird way of getting out." Our lips molded again as I continued to back away to find a solid spot to rest. "I like it."I smiled against her mouth and kissed her again. Evangeline kissed me harder, throwing her arms around my neck and pulling me closer. She pressed her body to mine, and my ache only grew. My dick was throbbing so hard I thought it would explode. I kissed her lips desperately, running a finger down her arm and caressing her skin softly.I buried my face in her neck, nibbling her flesh and sucking her soft skin gently. Evangeline writhed beneath me, digging her

EVANGELINEThe subtle touch of Axel's lip on mine again somehow rewired my entire brain. I couldn't stop myself, no matter how much I wanted to. I couldn't help how I felt around him. Axel made me feel things nobody ever could. With him, I was crazy, and I couldn't deny how needy I was for him. As Axel's lip covered mine, I was hauled back to the first time we kissed, even under the influence of alcohol. I couldn't pull away that memory from my brain. Kissing him reminded me of that night. It felt all too familiar, and somehow, being with him, I felt like that teenager again. The kiss was like quicksand, it sucked me in, and before I knew it, I fell into it and surrendered to my desire for him. His lips were as soft and inviting as I remembered, sending waves of pleasure through my body. I ached, feeling reborn. I hadn't felt this way in years. I hadn't been with any man since Axel left, and being so close to him made me so damn horny. I was hungry for more than just a kiss. I wante

EVANGELINE."I'd drop you two home, don't worry." He was leaning against the doorframe while Harper and I were busy sorting out our things. Harper responded before I could. "Well, someone is being a gentleman. Thank God you offered, I'd have asked myself."Axel chuckled, feeling good about his actions, while I shot him another glare. Last night was even better than our first time. I didn't have the words to describe it. I just knew I felt a sudden clench in my stomach whenever I looked at him, and my body tingled when the memories set in. "You don't have to do that, you know?"Why were my cheeks burning? "I'm doing it because I want to." He responded again, in a cheeky voice, before letting himself in. He zipped up the open part of my bag and helped me sort out some of the clothes sprawled on the bed, although he did more scattering than arranging. Still, the intention was pure and that made him adorable."Thank you," I mouthed. Axel shook his head before killing the distance between

AXEL. (Final)Asher would get married tomorrow, although it doesn't seem like he's planning on it. He'd vanished into the thin air, and our parents had been worried for a few days.It wasn't like they hadn't realized he really didn't want to do it. He'd told them several times. Now, I was charged with the responsibility of finding him, but to no avail. I barely even knew where he used to be, not to talk of successfully guessing his hideout.I had one last place in mind, and I'd made it my last because a part of me never wanted to believe that it was possible. He couldn't be with Evangeline, right? She'd specifically told us not to contact her anymore.I still did, as frequently as I could, to make sure she knew I was still waiting. I didn't know what to do, and I very much wanted to respect her decision, too. It would be so wrong of me to intrude. Still, I thought about her every day.Every minute, she was on my mind, and I kept wondering how she was doing. If she was fine, if she ate

ASHER.It's been a few days. The doctors only told me that Marcus had been discharged although when I reached out to his teachers, they confirmed that he hadn't resumed school yet, which meant he was with Evangeline here.I wouldn't blame her if she didn't want me close to him, but I did want to know how Marcus was doing. We had left the hospital in a hurry on Evangeline's request, so I didn't have the chance to be there for him the way I wanted to, and that hurt so much. I dropped my suitcase on the chair and fell onto the couch. It was a long day at work today and it was even worse because I couldn't concentrate on the things I had to do. It was almost as though I had detached from the world around me. It terrified me so much.It hadn't been up to a minute since I walked in when the door opened again. The low creaking sound forced me to open my eyes, and I saw Mercury and my mother walk in. I sighed tiredly, already frustrated by the discussion that hadn't even begun yet.I didn't

EVANGELINEMarcus was now conscious. I was the first person he saw and recognized after he opened his eyes yesterday. There was no greater joy. The moment I realized that he was fine, half the stress I had been feeling melted into nothing.Now, he was asleep, and I was back to the unfortunate hospital chair, swallowed by my thoughts again. It wasn't a bad thing sometimes. I couldn't help but imagine what I'd have been like if Marcus hadn't opened his eyes.I was dotting my 'Is' and crossing my 'Ts,' doing everything that needed to be done before I began a new chapter. Closure might seem far, but it was worth the try.I informed Harper about the accident last night but told her not to bother coming since Marcus was getting better. I could handle that much by myself now. I already sent the brothers off yesterday, seeing as their presence did my heart more harm than good.Asher was more reluctant to go, judging from the kind of relationship he had with Marcus, and I couldn't blame him.

EVANGELINE.Asher and I were on the same hospital chair, waiting for the results from the blood transfusion. Axel was still in, and waiting for him was the most tortuous thing I'd ever had to deal with.We sat in silence. I was so overwhelmed with sadness, and it gnawed at my chest. Asher, being a person who always read the room, stuck with the silence. My legs wouldn't stop shaking, and I couldn't seem to stop shedding tears either.My palms were pressed together in a prayer. I broke the silence by speaking first. "They said…it was on the football field…""Hm-hm," Asher nodded, his gaze was fixed in the empty space."He—" I took a pause to catch my breath. "He slipped and fell and—" hit his head. I was supposed to add that, but my mouth wouldn't make the words. I couldn't seem to believe that it was Marcus and he'd ever go through something this terrible."I…called him the night before," Asher said, "And…we had this…chess tournament after which he told me…"Do you think I should try

EVANGELINE"Where is he!?" I shouted again, and Asher was looking just as perplexed as I was. I turned to him. "Haven't you seen him since you got here?""I haven't, Evangeline," He responded tersely. "They didn't let me.""What do you mean they didn't let you?" Axel intercepted. "You haven't seen him, then why are you even here? What did the doctor say?"Asher huffed, "Well, I guess I should have barged into the fucking room then! They didn't let me see him! It had barely been fifteen minutes since I got here. All I know is the ward he is!""Can you two shut up and just show me the ward?!" I shouted as I walked down the hallway at an increased pace and they followed me. This was the worst time for them to be arguing. Asher overtook and led the way, then pointed to a ward as he continued down the hall. "This one."Oh god! Oh god! I was panicking, and my entire body shook on its own. What did the poor child do to deserve something like this happening to him? What exactly happened? Ho
In the Billionaires' Web The unexpected
EVANGELINE.We were meeting at a restaurant not very far from my apartment. I texted to meet up and scheduled it for today. Sitting in the restaurant had been a chore of its own. I seem to be the center of attention for no reason at all.Then I remembered that there was an art ik about me flying around. One that somehow hadn't seen the light. I wondered if Asher bothered to deny the rumors or if he just left them to linger and cause more hurt.It was weird how I had earlier thought something could work out between all three of us. I'd been hesitant to let go of my relationship with them, but I have decided what I thought was best for us. There wasn't a way I could be with Axel if Asher still harbored those feelings. His drunken call last night terrified me.I hadn't taken him to be the kind who drank. I figured I should draw a line and fast, no matter how much it killed me.Aside that, I'd been hurt way too much by Axel that I couldn't see past it. People didn't just spring up with a
In the Billionaires' Web Drunk
ASHERAfter hearing of the impromptu meeting Axel had set up with the shareholders, I couldn't hold back the anger I felt for him. As the acting head of the organization, I had the right to be aware of any meeting to take place.It was as though he'd gone behind my back to do it on purpose, and somehow, Axel had also managed to incite pity in their minds. Rumors about him spread like wildfire in the office. A lot of people were on his side, and they felt sorry for him since he'd been in the shadows for so long.Do they even know what he'd been doing in the shadows or how much I'd cleaned up after him? I doubt he mentioned any of that. I doubt he mentioned how he got wasted, got into trouble, and had fights that landed him in police custody on late nights. He must have forgotten to tell them that.He must have left out the part where I wasn't given the chance to be a child all so I could fill in for his inefficiency. How I was made to grow up earlier than I should, so I could jump into

AXELThe sun had just begun its ascent into the morning sky as I strode into the headquarters of the company. I'd spent the whole of last week getting settled in last week. It was finally time to do something differently, to set the path I wanted.I've had this thought, but it got worse since the article about Evangeline and Asher hit the net. The amount of affluence he had that made people so interested in his business— I wanted to have it, too. A part of me believed it was possible with the right amount of work.I just hoped Evangeline took me back when she noticed my effort. She hadn't been responding to my texts, nor had she returned any of my calls. It took all my willpower not to camp outside her apartment like I always had since she'd already warned me against it. I missed her so much. It felt like there was a hole in my chest.Each step I took echoed through the polished marble floors of the grand lobby, a stark contrast to the weight that pressed down on my shoulders. Today m

EVANGELINEMy patience wore thin as Axel's mother continued to push me to accept her offer and disappear from her sons' lives. The condescension in her tone and the dismissive way she spoke of my feelings for Axel grated on my nerves.Unable to contain my frustration any longer, I leaned forward and said through gritted teeth, "Can I let you in on a little secret, Mrs. White?""Oh, please!" She rubbed her forehead, frustrated. "There's more to this!? The whole thing makes me so uncomfortable already!" "Hm," I nodded reluctantly, ready to burn everything to the ground with a smile planted on my face. "I'm pregnant, and it's for Axel." It didn't take me too much to spill the words since I was already tired of her insensitivity. "Before you say the next thing on your mind, I think it's imperative for you to know that I did try to get rid of the child…my child for your son's happiness, but…that didn't work out for me, just like everything else!"Her reaction was instantaneous, her eyes w
