SHOTS AND SECRETS

last update Last Updated: 2024-09-05 18:46:48

BEN POV

With everything that was going on in my life I was on the verge of losing my mind and I was caught between two men who were related.

The other despised my entire existence and he probably wished that I was never born while the other one made my heart flutter in a way I couldn’t even understand.

Was I falling in love with Nolan?

I sighed deeply and pulled out my phone to call my best friend.

Luckily he picked up on the first ring and I moved the phone from my ear when I heard the blaring music from the background.

Okay who seriously gets wasted in the morning?

I rolled my eyes at the mere thought.

“Hello?”

He definitely sounded off.

“Where are you?” I asked curiously even though I already knew the answer to my question.

He chuckled softly.

“I’m sorry Ben, is it a crime to get drunk? I am going through a horrible breakup and the only thing you fucking care about is my location?”

He sounded pitchy as usual.

It makes me wonder how we are still friends.

    AMBROSE POVI couldn’t get this issue off my mind, and it was clear that the fire that had happened at the vineyard was an accident.Something was definitely fishy, and I couldn’t seem to shake off the feeling that the past had come back to haunt me.I hadn’t even had the chance to face him and tell him about the night I spent with Ben. He was going to be broken when he learned the truth.I groaned deeply and stepped outside for some fresh air because I was on the verge of losing my mind.Maybe leaving New York for a few days would do me some good, and maybe I could finally get rid of the image of Ben and Nolan kissing.I pulled out my phone and decided to call Matteo.He picked up on the first ring.That’s what I liked about him. He was always reliable, and I could count on him.“Ambrose, what do I owe the pleasure of this call?”I desperately needed his advice.I chuckled softly.“There’s a situation, and I don’t want to lose Nolan in the process.”There was silence on the other end

    *BEN*Nolan and I were having dinner together.There was just something about the way he constantly looked at me.I always felt flustered under his gaze.Our eyes locked in a frenzy and Nolan slowly leaned in for a kiss and before his lips could meet mine my phone started ringing and I pulled away with a chuckle."Sorry."He nodded quietly and I fished the phone out of my phone.I swallowed hard when I saw Ambrose's name flashing on the screen.I answered the call and placed the phone to my ear and excused myself.Once I was far enough from Nolan I sighed softly."Ambrose?" There was silence from the other end of the line.Saying his name out loud still did a number on me."Benedykta."I swallowed hard."Why are you calling me?" I cut straight to the point."I wanted to apologize for what I said to you at the engagement. I was angry but I shouldn't have crossed the line." I frowned."That's it?"The words left my lips before I could stop them.He chuckled softly."Were you expectin

    BEN POVNolan was quick to jump to his father’s aid before he ended up committing murder in broad daylight.When the journalists didn’t respond to what Ambrose had asked, he turned to look at me, and our eyes locked in a frenzy, and my heart skipped a beat.He defended me, even though he barely knew the whole story.Nolan was trying to calm his father down, but Ambrose brushed him off and went into the building, and I remained frozen on the spot as the reporters continued to take pictures of the whole incident, and I could definitely sense a lawsuit coming in.I found myself walking past Nolan with my mind still reeling from the shock.As soon as I walked in, I could hear people murmuring about me, and I ignored them and went to the ladies' bathroom to cool off.I turned on the faucet and glanced in the mirror, staring at my reflection, and I saw a broken girl staring back at me.Tears rolled down my cheeks, and I let them fall this time because there was no one to see my vulnerable s

I freeze as my body reacts to the heat of her body close to mine.I swallow hard and drape my arms around her waist.She needs c

    BEN POVOnce Ambrose and Nolan were gone, I slumped in my chair, tiredly running my fingers through my hair.I was on the verge of losing my damn mind.He saw us… and if Nolan hadn’t walked in at that moment, I am certain that Ambrose and I would have kissed, and that would have been the end of us.What would my family think of me? The whole world would label me as a slut and a homewrecker who ruined a father-son relationship.I couldn’t help but feel guilty.I sighed deeply and trusted Ambrose to handle the issue; after all, he knew Nolan better than I did.I pulled out my phone and decided to call Clay. He was the only person who could make me feel sane at this point.As usual, he picked up on the second ring.“What did you do this time?”My eyes widened in shock.I didn’t expect him to go straight to the point. I cleared my throat nervously.“Ambrose knows everything about Zane… and I had a mental breakdown, and he held me when my world was crashing down. He didn’t even care if he

    ZANE POV My gaze lingered on Ben’s recent photo, and I must say she looked hotter than ever, though it was clear that the life in her eyes had been long. She smiled often, but the smile never matched her face. My little doll was still broken, and I was the only one who could fix her. I’ve been sending her gifts to remind her that I haven’t forgotten about her. I still care about her. I still love her, and that’s why I came back to New York. She may have thought that her little stunt had ruined my family’s name. She was wrong. People gossiped about our failed engagement for a while, but it’s been years, and I am finally ready to teach her a lesson. It was just the beginning of our love story. For the past few weeks, I’ve been watching that man and his son get close to you, and it makes me wonder what kind of woman you’ve become, Ben. I never expected you to be a slut.

Watching Ambrose cook looked like a work of art.He caught me staring at him, and I placed the glass to my lips, pretending to drink and mind my own damn business.I could tell that he seemed amused by my behavior.“So where did you learn to cook like that?”I inhaled softly, and it smelled delicious.Ambrose looked up, meeting my gaze, and that throbbing feeling between my thighs was back again, taunting me.“My father enjoyed cooking meals for my mother, and he taught me to do the same at a very young age, especially if I wanted to make the woman I love happy.

    **BEN POV**Ambrose pulled away with a shaky exhale as he cupped both of my cheeks, staring into my eyes deeply.Tears filled my eyes as he smiled at me. It was that kind of smile that made my heart swell with so much admiration for this man.He was becoming the bane of my existence.His thumb wiped away a lone tear that rolled down my cheek.“Is this the part where you kick me out of your life?” I asked curiously, and he chuckled softly.He looked amused.“No. I believe this is the part where I do a lot of terrible things to you, piccolo fiore, that will make you scream my name until your throat is sore.”The mere thought made my knees buckle. A shaky exhale escaped my lips as his eyes darkened.“What? Are you already afraid of me? For a girl who asked a random old man at a bar to kiss her, you look very timid right now,” he taunted, frowning.I smirked at him, pushing past my fears.“I know that I should be running away from you, Ambrose, but I don’t care.

I'll find you guys the best apartment in this city.”I rolled my eyes at her.“Just make yourself comfortable. I need to take my morning shower, so it might take a while.”She nodded quietly.The last time I had a proper conversation with my mother was at the wedding, and tensions were flying high that day.I pointed to the kitchen and left.Once I was in the comfort of my room, I sighed softly and closed the door behind me.I felt like I was getting cold feet, but it was already too late
