Melissa's POV I tried to move forward and fail miserably because my feet wouldn't listen to me. All they wanted was to stay put on the spot. So I stood there like a statue. My body felt heavy, my legs were numb and my head felt so thick that nothing could pass through it. Tears thickened within my eyelid. I tried to put it under control by fixating my gaze on the floor. No matter how I tried to be strong my father always makes me weak and often time, I feel like the world was revolving around me just to my disadvantage. I have always dreamed to have the kind of love life that my parent shared. There was nothing blissful in a marital home than to have a loving husband who did love you despite all your condemnations and flaws. A sweet husband that would make every moment of your days with him worth living. A caring husband who despite all your disputes, he would still cherish you even more than himself. A man who would treat you differently in the most selfless way than whatever othe
Donald's POVI sat on one of the stools in the Ballroom watching Melissa's intuitive steps swaying her away. A light chuckle braced my face but was cut short by a shrill old woman's voice piercing through the music yet smiling as she approached me."She is a damsel! Are you her date tonight?" I shook my head having brought myself back so quickly, "Err- Not really." I gobbled down a shot of chilled whiskey, rolling my tongue sweetly to savor it.As she whispered to the Bartender, she sat on the next stool. Once done, she gave me a sympathetic look. "I remember when I was young and my husband left me. I thought I would never find happiness again until I found my second husband."I smiled. "That's nice." while tapping the shooter."Do you have any children?" She asked while being thrilled as lascivious smiles leave her face not. Seductively, she winked and tongued out at me while shamelessly roaming her fingers upon my lap.Devilish smiles couldn't leave my face. I shook my head negativ
Donald's POV"Pretense to what?!" Her face shrunk into confusion. With a disbelieving smirk, she rapidly dragged her feet on the ground and twirled around. Pausing to face me, she counterattacked with a raging pitch."How am I supposed to know you have an older brother when this City only sees you as the Boss? Your auras filled everywhere! Tell me how I suppose to know!"Then, subtly, her voice broke out like shattering pieces of glass, "What else am I supposed to do to be free? I struck this deal intending to be free of this imposed marriage!" I couldn't believe her utterances. Even the gaze she was sparkling. Standing up abruptly, I drew another hot good smoke and hovered my face over hers intimately. She did not startle but her mind throbbed. I could see those eyes calling for liberty."It is simple." I gritted my teeth together. It oozed out the flames to tenaciously splash over her face. She was in it without faltering nor with a spit of cough.Croaking out a raspy voice, I advi
Donald's POVShe wasn't drunk yet she fell asleep a minute after I started driving. What a witty sleeper. I couldn't have been wrong. The face on her when she yelled at me... Does it imply she like me or those tantrums were about the termination of her engagement?'Confess to me that you like me!' I recalled her outburst. A peal of huge laughter ruminates in my belly. I couldn't hold myself but laugh at her pale face. It was as though she hasn't been sleeping since the day she left. Sitting on the couch and watching her this closely, I couldn't resist but touch her... That face always displays her buoyancy. Those eyes couldn't let down but gleam at me. Those lips that always call for me every time she opened them to rave. I wish I could have another taste... now and then. My hand trailed on them irresistibly. Pity for me, she was no longer a hope of me but now for Ezio De' Sandro! 'If I will choose. It's you... I will choose you...over and over... and over without thinking twice!
Donald's POV Regardless, Stacy sat on the couch. "So, the dining together was about her residing with us? And you accept? You want her to live with us?" Her curious tone coaxed a relaxing smirk from my face, "I'm now her Fiance." "Ehn?" Stacy burst into laughter. The least I expected her to do. I actually hope for a stun and not mocking laughter. "But she is to be betrothed to Ezio." She said, turning on her seriousness. "Yes, I'm her fake fiance..." I explained how today went to Stacy. But throughout the story, Stacy could only release heavy laughter. I found her irritating until those mocking laughs faded off and her nostrils began to sniff tears. "Haa... This cracks my rib out." "You are a lump of dead meat now. Aren't you? Alessandro won't think twice before eliminating you let alone Ezio." She pouted with seriousness. I was aware. I began to doubt my gain in this deal. I might lose every damn thing that belongs to me if Alessandro finds out but the risk is worth it. "
Melissa's POVRemorse limped back to my core as I saw Stacy putting so much effort into preparing the bathtub after she denied it. She took her time lighting the candles. My presence did not startle her as I thought she would.Heartwarming fragrance brace the air... Red petals flood the tub and sliced citrus compliment them. The water was slightly soapy, calling me to immerse my body in them quickly. Nonetheless, I sat by the edge of the bed. "I'm sorry about that day, Stacy. It came so shocking after the realization was dumped on me. I heard Donald instructing his men but I did not know they were aiming for me. Everything became vivid all at once and I become disgusted staying here." I explained. "I hope you'd understand and never put my action to heart. I started getting accustomed to you. I can't just jeopardize it. Please, forgive me." I pouted all at once.Instead, she focused more on it. Once she was done, she shook her head as if she had accepted. But her resilience, I couldn
WARNING: R18+ Alert. This Chapter Contains Mature Content.Melissa's POVAn undefine rage sparked through me that I blazed into Scott's orbs like an angry beast. Like ever, he has been waiting for me to walk into his den so he could tear me apart with the same subject again. "You can return home and prepare yourself for your engagement. Those motherf*ckers have been dealt with." He said, not considering my expression. I suck in my bottom lips with grief. An awkward silence reigned between us before I disseminate my conclusion to him without biting back."Dad, I will protect the Governor. If it means death for me, I don't mind..."A ferocious hot slap landed on my cheek before spewing my intended words. I let out a gasp and a sharp pain cut through my lips. I pierced my gaze upon that hefty hand, grieving. He still wore his wedding ring and that ring just cut my lip. Does he have the right to still wear that ring when he treats his wife's only daughter so lowly? I suck in my lips w
"Do..nald... oo...ouch!"Literally, I was breathing intensely. That bite felt so good as the pleasure narrowly traveled into my veins. Completely recessive under his domain, he thrust up and down on me even though he hasn't ridden his heavenly rod into me.Every upward thrust drove out thirsty moans from my lips. I was unable to keep calm the pleasure I was deriving from every nuzzling of his erected member on the tip of my clit. My butt stirred under him gently and my hands clogged to his hips cravingly. Spontaneously, he was massaging my lips. Claiming every bit of sweetness in me. Between tightened eyes, I was responding to him... to the movement of his muscles on me... to his groan upon my lips... to his needs for not wanting to stop, and inclusively, his soothing pleasure that was mixing intimately with mine.I really wouldn't want to be anywhere tonight but this embrace that kept driving me to cloud_9. As he savor my lower lip, he received my sweet moan with a needful groan both
/Melissa's POV/ My face shrunk as Stacy ranted nonstop. Thick sweats mingled with her unsteady breaths as she unfolded her fear to me. "It's ok, Stacy. Breathe in and out slowly." I urged her. I have never seen Stacy appear this vulnerable in my presence. She always held up her head and stood strong all the time. Little did I know she could be this weak and timid. She crashed into the nearby chair. One of her hands was shaking vigorously which she held in place with the other hand yet both hands kept shaking vehemently against her thighs. Meanwhile, Sister Jane still hugged Kiera while I sat quietly beside Stacy, trying all my efforts to console her. Silence was all I felt, I was confused and did not know where to start consoling her. "I thought Ezio was his only brother. So you guys have twin siblings?" "He didn't tell you?" She muffled quietly, making me doubt if she had spoken. "Tell me what?" I replied in her tone. I just want to sound more sympathetic. "I wasn't related
Melissa's POVLater in the evening, I left for the hospital. I shouldn't have told the doctor about my fear. I shouldn't have told him I don't want my family to involve. But how could I have kept it from my family?It has been 2 months since I was diagnosed with stage 4 blood cancer back in Germany. The exact illness that took my mom's life. My mom didn't make it alive despite treatments and surgeries. How would I make it? I already give it up since the doctor said I have a few months left but I should do well and come for treatment because of pain. What pain was much more than lying on the sickbed while counting your days slipping out of you every single minute? Instead of yielding to treatments, I'd want to endure the pain out here in the world while I make the little time I have left worth living.I decided to do those things I didn't have the chance to do. Wasn't it pathetic that I wasn't as lucky as my Mom? She was fortunate to die in the arms of her lover.Since I couldn't hav
Melissa's POV I crept my way to the library as I couldn't keep mingling with Donald's breath in the class. Yet, it was so pity I couldn't escape from him as I have thought. His sudden presence in the library startled me. My breath reversed as he approach me with intent. I flinched, wishing to disappear into the book I was reading. A huge gasp of breath escaped from my lung as he paused on his steps abruptly, however, I haven't normalized when his hand swing off the book from my hands. I became stupefied. My eyes connected with his dazzling eyes. They pierce at me like a dreadful monster. I didn't snatch out of his spell easily until he disappeared from the library. I creased my brows as I felt the mixture of sadness and joy in me as of the moment his presence was no longer felt. —I was joyous because I got to see him and his presence there tells me he came for me. However, I was sad that he left too quickly and I couldn't do anything to stop him. As soon as I realized I have miss
Donald's POV"Don't mutter it...! Don't even think of it," Stacy said, her eyes glowing with pleads. "I vow to capture him. Please count it on me...huh!" She added."Am I gonna sit and watch him as he expands his zone? It was just two weeks since I dispatched him." I replied, making Stacy speechless.Definitely, he was sent as a spy to the Shark Wing. Unfortunately, Alessandro took the bait just like I did... now, I'm regretting it. I grieved more. The most soothing aspect of my operations was the collection of my victim's database. For each of my victims, I access their database through their electronic gadgets. Their database in my grasp made me feel this special kind of joy as their conqueror and with that, I could make such victims my puppet whenever I want... especially if they got out of my den unharmed.Frisco had done the same with Melissa when I haven't used it against her. How dare he?"That scumbag got the gut to use my trick against me. I trusted him...! I trusted him so
Donald's POVI strolled through the shelves of books in the Library while sneaking my eyes to search for Melissa. I close my eyes briefly and my body shivered to respond to the earthy floral scent that suddenly stuck in my nostrils. It made my steps pause and awakened me in a way I couldn't fathom. Quickly, I sneaked my eyes through the stack of books on the shelf intending to catch sight of Melissa secretly.Feeling her warm scent nearer, I wander my feet to the next shelf. My attempt to see her was futile. My steps took a very slow pace as my finger rode through those books as though I was checking for my favorite book. Just like she sneaked out of my embrace, she also cowered out of my sight as soon as the free period started. Ever since I have been stalking her. I couldn't believe I stalk her until I got stuck in this murky place where I hate to stay the most. The smell of books was too toxic and unpleasant to me. I wonder why students found these dense books lodge a pleasant pl
Melissa's POV "Ms. Ella, your class has a new student." Mr. Andrew, the homeroom teacher called the attention of a fair skinny woman in her early-30s. She seems to just start the class as she was writing the Subject's name on the whiteboard. I signed inwardly as several eyes scowled at me like I'm a ghost. I instinctively gestured a waving hand at them to reduce the awkwardness. The scowl in their eyes wasn't surprising to me. —Usually, final year classes don't admit new students, over it all, this was the last semester and I have spent two months from it in my previous school out of the five months in the semester's calendar. This tells how notorious Davis Scott was! As soon as Mr. Andrew left, Ms. Ella smiled tenderly, "You can introduce yourself, Ms. Red." Gasping laughter filled up the classroom. My brows furrowed confusingly. Ms. Ella raised a brow at me in return and her hand gesture to urge me to be fast. My teeth gritted with a grimace. 'Swallow it up, Melissa.' My i
Melissa's POV"Ah... Please don't stop.... ouch!""Ah... Please... Yes... don't beat back... ouch!""Ah..ah...ah... Keep aching me... bad!" My feet paused as I enter the female's restroom. Loud erotic moans filled the air. The fact that the main door was left unlocked while this was going on in the small Stall amused me.Why would students lack so much decency?Loud and steamy, their moans kept impeding my hearing. I went straight to the last Stall to empty my bowel. The food I eat early in the morning tends to constipate me. Usually, I don't eat breakfast early in the morning until 10 am upward, however, I couldn't handle the growling of my stomach since dawn. So, as soon as I left Donald's house, I branched to a restaurant to eat. So, unfortunately, It went on the wrong side of me.Huge smiles crammed my face as I recalled my moment with Donald. I wouldn't have believed that man slept in my embrace overnight if not that my pure eyes confirming it.I opened my eyes to see his hands
Donald's POVThe melody from the cool morning breeze danced the curtain away from its rest. The blond rays of the sunrise escaped through the opened curtain and poured their beauty on my gentle sleepy face. I had opened my eyes for a while but I felt so weak to stand up. I haven't slept a pleasant sleep in a long time. I plunge my face into the pillow, rolling my length to and fro as I felt lazier to stand up. However, as I remember I spent the night with Melissa in my embrace and I was the only one in bed this morning, I sat up abruptly and prowled my gaze around. No wonder the sleep was the most peaceful one I had. Was it because I was laying in an angel's embrace? I snickered.I got disappointed when I didn't see her in the room. Daily, it seems I've been getting addicted to her presence... her melodious voice.... and her scent... Now, her warmth was tempting me. "Melissa, are you there?" I knocked on the bathroom door. Her scent had left my side for a while, so I thought she co
Donald's POVI didn't voice a reply but observed him raging. To be candid, Ezio was a beloved brother to me. He didn't treat me differently and most Lycan who couldn't differentiate wolf scent apart from Lycans would think I was a Lycan.That was the level of intimacy we once shared. However, from the last 5 years that we were separated, I have grown and I'd know when I was loved genuinely from just facial sympathy."I'm gonna do everything to break that Sire Bond and shatter you into pieces. That's what you get for having eyes on my thing." He grunted and his monstrous fangs hardened together. "Whether sired or not. I've only come here to give you a warning. I don't take lightly what I owned." I paused briefly and clashed my shoulder against his to pave way for me. He stood rigid. Already knew that was what I'd do to make him pave the way for me. I whipped my head to him and our breath intertwined murderously. With a rocky pitch that sounded coarse, I creaked out a warning full of
