Just A One Night Stand You in love or trouble
Chills danced up my spine and curled over the back of my neck when I saw her. Goosebumps prickled almost painfully along my flesh and my chest tightened, stuffing my ability to breathe.Annika gripped my hand tight in the seat to my left. Her opposite hand to her chest and a silent gasp on her lips as the Swan Queen came into view. My aunt was just as awed by Rhea as everyone else in the theater.The fluid way she floated across the stage was otherworldly. Her powerful, lithe form moved in sync with the thrill of the orchestral music. It was astounding, watching her perform and bring the story of life with her body. Everything faded away and my vision tunneled on Rhea. She was an angel from heaven and I was a sinner burning on the inside from her presence alone.I leaned forward in my seat, holding my breath as I witnessed the agony and pain in the odette's eyes when her heart breaks. Those expressive blue eyes were glimmering like diamonds and my hand curled into a fist against my th

"This thing is massive, Aleksander. I can't carry this and see", Rhea giggled."But I love them"The light over the theater back door, shone down on her like a golden halo, and the flowers flamed her heavenly face. Rhea was picturesque and more beautiful than any great painting in the world.Words formed on the tip of my tongue for her. Something at this moment was pushing me to open my mouth and spill the secrets, I had buried so deep that I didn't register they were there at all until recently. I had to tell her everything because our time together would be over soon, and I didn't want it to end. Clearing my throat, Rhea looked back up at me, smiling over the crimson red roses. I was ready and willing to drown myself in the pools of her blue eyes. "Rhea, I need to tell you something, I l.........""Oh! Sorry", Just as I began, she interrupted. "My phone keeps buzzing in my pocket but I can't reach it. Can you grab it for me so I can see who keeps calling me?","Of course", I agreed

I watched as Rhea's feet flew over the sidewalk but I couldn't move. I couldn't breathe. I was feeling ice in my blood and a stone where my heart had been seconds ago The gentle night time breeze ruffled my hair, and it drew my eyes to the crushed flowers on the sidewalk, petals skittering away in the wind. At the sound of a slamming car door, my head jerked up and saw Rhea getting in the back of a cab.My feet moved under me on their own, something like madness driving me to race after her. I jumped into the street despite the honking horns, my leather shoes smacking over the street as I ran after the back of that yellow cab."RHEA AAA......", I screamed after her but she couldn't hear me. The cab turned around the block and i lost them in a sea of cars and skyscrappers.I was too late. Rhea was gone. ~~~~~~~~~~~~RHEA'S POV...The glimmer of hope I had begun to feel was now shattered at my feet in a million fucking tiny little pieces. Reflecting back to me the tortured face of d

A drawn car horn in the streets far below jolted me from my dreams. To my left, the mattress was cold and empty. The hell of being in love and waking up alone was too much for me to bear. I couldn't handle it. Not now that I have lost everything.When I dragged my feet out of the bed, the sun was blazing through the window. The time on my bedside clock told me I had slept for twelve hours. It still didn't feel like enough.I dug through my bag, looking for my phone out of habit. Of course the battery was out, and I sighed at the thought of what would be waiting for me once it came back on. Still I plugged it in and hopped into the shower while it was charging.Under the scalding spray of water, my bones turned to jelly and I melted against the tile. I let the burning water turn my skin red, and I scrubbed until my flesh was raw. Anything not to feel the pain in my chest and to distract me from the poisonous thoughts in my mind.~ Alone~ Alone~ ALONE..In the silence, my thoughts scre
Last Updated : 2023-02-06Just A One Night Stand She is avoiding me
The furthest from okay I had been since my grandma died and my papa fell sick. The furthest since I had to sell their house to pay the medical bills. And the furthest since I had to take contracts and had my first meeting with an older man who pawed at me like a starving man.But at the end of the day it didn't really matter, if I was okay or not. I went back into the shell of my life, dropping my emotions into the void and locked away the key.No amount of wishing and hoping would make Aleksander love me back or show up at my door like a hero in a romance movie. And no amount of screaming and praying would bring my grandfather back from the dead.My phone buzzed again and the name that sent my heart soaring flashed across the screen. I let it ring until it went to voicemail again. No matter how jumbled my sore feelings were, this was the time I needed to focus.I had a funeral to plan after all.~~~~~~~~.ALEKSANDER'S POV.If someone asked me to describe my home, my thoughts would on
Last Updated : 2023-02-07Just A One Night Stand Don't let her go
I sat on a barstool at the kitchen island and watched my aunt, Annika organize everything. I felt like a kid again. It wasn't a good feeling on top of the chasm of loneliness in my chest."Your uncle told me, you haven't been at work this week", Annika's tone was neutral as she set the water to boil on the stove."I'm allowed to use my hard - earned vacation days, aren't I?", Instantly I cringed at the snip in my short words. Annika didn't deserve it. I was taking out my anger on her."Of course you are, Aleksander. Nikolai knows that too", She fiddled with the teabags on the counter before looking up to face me. "You know we just worried about you. I have never seen you like this before", She added"Well, I have never felt like this before", My head fell into my hands, hearing myself say that aloud. A massive sigh escaped out of my mouth, and i wanted to sink on myself. "Hmm", Anika hummed, taping her nails on the edge of the counter. "Why is love intensified by absence?", She spok

RHEA'S POV.It was dreadfully dark in the sky above, and the clouds were crying around me. Heavy drops of freezing rain were hitting me in the face but I didn't have the strength to wipe them away, and I didn't care how cold I was. My black dress and coat was soaking, my boats were nearly ankle deep in the muddy. But none of it mattered.I let the rain hit my face, pouring down and mingling with the tears flowing freely from my tears. I could almost imagine I wasn't crying at all, but through out papa's service. I couldn't seem to stop. We should have gone inside but rain had come too fast and there were so many eyes on me. Looking out over all the people who knew papa through out his life, I didn't recognize half of their faces. Old couples who knew my grandparents from church neighbors from their house I had to sell, and younger men who worked with papa before he retired.There were so many strange faes that were in blank mind as I tried to recall them. But there was nothing more

I kept my eyes at my grandfather's grave for a pretty good time as tears flowed down my eyes. I didn't want to leave.However suddenly a shadow appeared at the edge of my vision. I was too weary to deal with any stragglers. At this moment, I wanted to melt away with the rain and disappear.I closed my eyes, sighing heavily as I summoned the energy to face whoever was standing in front of me. There was nothing left in me, but the presence wouldn't go away. Resigning myself to face one more person for the night, I looked up."Can I help.....The instant , I lifted up my eyes, all the air was knocked from my lungs as if someone had bashed my chest with a sledgehammer. My knees wobbled and my body caved under me. Every nerve in my body, every weak little piece of me, quivered at the sight of him. My heart thumped too madly against my ribs as snakes of unease slithered in my gut."Aleksander?", His name flowed from my lips, vanishing in the howling wind of the rain.He was just as handso

Just A One Night Stand Happy family
EPILOGUE RHEA'S POV Three wonderful years came and went. Each one became a new chapter in my life that I'd never forget. I couldn't when I had otherworldly love pouring through me every day. More than I ever thought I'd experience in my life.Trudging through the grief of losing so much family ate a hole in my heart. Aleksander came along and slowly threaded the chasm together, healing me with each delicate touch and sensual kiss. An unlikely love formed from that illicit contract, and through turmoil and pain, we forged our story.Glowing, floating on top of the world, I swept into the kitchen. A delightful buzz from champagne left a rosy flush across my cheeks. I poured myself a glass of water, listening to precious laughter drifting from upstairs as I did."Rhea!" Annika's excited coo made me whirl around from the sink. I came face to face with her, waving her red nails, gesturing for a hug. I stepped into her arms. Annika shimmied against me. "How did the event go?""It was great
Just A One Night Stand Start of new life
The technician broke the silence first. "Your chart says that you're estimated to be about eighteen weeks along. Is that correct?""Yes," Rhea swiftly answered. Her smile widened. "The size of a bell pepper this week.""That's right," the technician chortled. She glanced between the three Makalovs in the dimly lit room. One hand clicked a button on the ultrasound keyboard and the monitor flickered on. With the probe hovering over Rhea's navel, she asked, "Are you interested in knowing the gender?"Rhea's throat bobbed. Her fingers twitched in mine. Simultaneously, we locked gazes. It was an important question, and one we hadn't discussed nearly enough."I'm going to love them, regardless." Her bottom lip trembled as she studied my face. "As long as they're healthy.""Do you want it to be a surprise?" I whispered in my wife's ears alone. Leaning closer, I nuzzled into the side of her face. "Whatever you want, baby. Just say the word."Despite her nerves, Rhea giggled. She turned her he
Just A One Night Stand Baby shower
ALEKSANDER'S POV A month passed, and we returned home.Keeping my promise to Rhea, I relinquished the reins over to Nikolai to close the loose ends with the Genovese crime family.My aunt and uncle understood and approved of my wish to keep my hands clean for my wife's sake. Nikolai didn't bat an eye when he proclaimed the Genovese would accept a deal and leave our family alone if we did the same.Antonio recovered from his injuries from the car accident. After two weeks in bed, he returned with renewed vigor. The incidents of that day wounded his honor, and he stated he needed to make up for it. As much as I argued, he needed to take time away. He continued showing up in uniform.Rhea had a checkup with her doctor. That was an appointment I wouldn't miss for the world. I held her hand through the follow-up tests, using her as my lifeline through the stress. I'm sure I was the same for her.The thumping sound of a heartbeat lifted a weight off my chest. Rhea cried from the sweet tast
Just A One Night Stand I want the baby and you
Keeping one hand on his cheek, our lips a hair's breadth apart, I hooked my other arm around his neck. Chest to chest except for his hand on my breast, I breathed my promise into him. "I love you, Aleksander. Forever."A relieved shudder rushed through his body from head to toe. The stuttered sigh past his lips tickled my mouth. I repeated my vow to him, again and again, accompanied by each primal thrust of his hips. "I love you. I love you. I love you."Lush warmth blossomed in the center of my being. It rose from a taut coil in the depths of my core. All at once the carnal pleasure of Aleksander making love to me exploded through my body, rushing in waves from between my thighs to each of my limbs.Quaking against him with searing pleasure wracking my body, Aleksander couldn't hold back. My pulsing cunt forced him into the throes of his climax, following the heels of mine. He painted me from within, claiming me in the salacious way that I enjoyed.He caught my cries on his tongue, s
Just A One Night Stand Tell me you love me
He seized me in his hands, tenderly stroking them over my fevered flesh. I didn't notice when the gloves came off, but I savored the sensation of his skin on mine. Aleksander explored every dip and curve of my body as if discovering me for the first time.His scruff tickled my throat as his lips tasted me from my chin to my collarbone. I wrapped my arms around his neck, and Aleksander grabbed my hips. In one swift motion, he lifted me off the floor. My legs curled around his waist.The stiffness of his growing erection slipped against the wet center of me. A groan escaped from his mouth into mine. We shared a brief moan at the sweet moment of friction.Aleksander's lips clashed with mine in a passionate frenzy. He moved forward, marching us under the hot spray of the shower. We didn't stop until my back met the tile, crushed between the shower wall and Aleksander's perfectly sculpted frame.I grasped the back of his hair in one hand, tugging slightly as Aleksander's teeth nipped at my
Just A One Night Stand I need you
RHEA'S POV Every ounce of my consciousness slipped from my grasp the moment Aleksander freed me. While all the world moved around me, my thoughts stayed still within the pit of darkness consuming my mind. My awareness stayed on my pulsing veins, coursing with cold blood and the rough pounding of my heart throbbing through my limbs.Each breath cleaved through my lungs, strained and burning. Only the heat of Aleksander's hand on my arms kept me on my feet. He was my anchor to reality during a turbulent car ride, and as he swept me through the blinding lights of a semi crowded lobby.A hotel, I thought, somewhere downtown. My eyes couldn't focus on anything, from the onlooking strangers in the shadows to the overly bright glow of opulent lighting. Aleksander and Nikolai's hushed voices brushed against something inside my head. I knew they were with me, but I moved on autopilot.My body floated on a cloud. Up an elevator. Several turns down hallways that felt like a damn never-ending ma
Just A One Night Stand You safe with me
Men screamed. Blood and brains splattered the walls and floors as they went down.A figure popped out around a corner. I fired one shot at his head, and he descended to the ground like an axed tree falling in a forest.Another came behind him. Too close to shoot from afar. My left arm shot out and blocked his. I used the momentum to force his aim up. My opponent shot and missed, bullets lodging in the ceiling. With my left hand, I pointed the gun at his stomach and fired two rounds.The last shot went into the side of his skull as he stumbled to his knees. Then he dropped like a stone on the filthy concrete.An arm emerged at the end of the corridor I passed through. I pulled the trigger, yet nothing left the chamber.Regardless of my unloaded pistol, I grabbed the arm in front of me. One twist of the wrist forced his weapon from his hand. The gun clattered away on the floor.The man grunted. When I jammed the butt of my gun into his face, breaking his nose, he screamed. As he fell, I
Just A One Night Stand Time for rescue
ALEKSANDER'S POV Nikolai burst from the front doors of the Makalov mansion. I followed hot on his heels, rushing toward the line of awaiting cars parked around the massive fountain at the end of the driveway.The very last thing Nikolai and I expected was to receive a call from an anonymous contact who worked for the Genovese. Someone in their organization vehemently opposed a potential war. Enough to give away Luca's location.Rhea was the one thing in this world I wanted more desperately than my body needed air. Luca Genovese stole her from me. Now betrayed by his own, I would take his life.The fiery glow of dusk settled itself over the horizon. A brisk wind whipped up the edges of my coat. My fingers twitched, itching for a cigarette to relieve my bristling nerves.Leaving Annika safe at the mansion, I joined my uncle in the backseat of the first car. Personal guards accompanied us. All well-trained and armed with the same pistol I carried.Savage anger writhed like a serpentine
Just A One Night Stand The revenge
"I'll handle it." The snarky response pulled me from my thoughts. Then the door at my back pushed open with a grating creak of metal on metal. I slammed back into reality, where I sat handcuffed to a chair in some semi-abandoned building.Every breath I took burned my chest. My body tensed with the fear running in my blood. As Luca's shadow rose ominously over the opposite wall, I couldn't breathe. I couldn't move a muscle as each sinister thump of his shoes carried him closer.Luca appeared in front of me with an eerie aura. His disturbing grin slashed wider upon finding me alert.I tried maintaining my gaze at first. He lasciviously ogled every inch of me with a malicious sneer, twisting his features. The threatening glint in his eyes forced my gaze down to his expensive leather loafers crunching on bits of broken glass beneath us."You're finally awake," Luca announced, cocking his head to the side. "The accident was unfortunate, but I didn't think your driver knew any defensive ma
