LuckyI feel the bed as he slides under the sheets and lays down. I have placed two pillows in between us. It is distracting knowing he is so close to me, and I can hardly focus on the words in my book. Some damn romance with smutty scenes that makes me ache as it is, let alone having a good looking, fit man like Nico laying so close to me.I hate the way that my body wants him, it’s hard to fight a man with such dark, brooding looks who is powerful, fierce and built like a God. My mind tells me it would be wrong, I have fought so hard for so long. Six whole months to ignore him as my fiancée.Yet he has shown me some niceties, that I can’t deny but giving in to my body that literally craves him like his brother it seems craves heroine. “What are you reading?” he asks as he lays with his hands behind his back. He doesn’t wear a T-shirt or pajamas, fuck I hope he kept his boxer shorts on. Just the thought of him being totally naked next to me makes me cross my legs one over the other a
NicoI wake and remember I am in the bed with Lucky, the evening comes back to me. The sound of her voice as she was reading her story to me, it sent me to sleep. Not because I was bored, but her voice it is soothing when she is not being a bitch or brat to me. I could listen to her voice all night long.It's still dark outside, I easily slip from under the sheets and make my way to the closet room to put on my workout gear. But not before I take another look at her peaceful, resting face. She is beautiful, graceful, her skin is tan even with he light on dimly, I can see her glow. Lucky’s hair is splayed all over the pillows, so much of it, it’s dizzying. It reminds me of a glossy mane.Quietly, I move around to retrieve my running shorts, my old, favorite black T-shirt and slip into my trainers then take a seat on one of the chairs in the closet room and do up the laces.“Hey, are you planning on shirking out of running with me? Are you scared to lose?” And there goes that mouth of h
Lucky“Oh my gosh, it feels like ages.” I wrap my arms around Mia who looks amazing. Her hair up in a 1940’s classic do, it suits her.“I know, but it hasn’t been. So much has happened. Are you sure you are okay? Let me see.” Mia twirls me around and inspects me. “Mm, it looks like you might have lost weight, Lucky. I hope you’re eating properly. And all the guards, well I have to say I can’t say no to those. Nico sure has some hot looking guys around. Are they ex Marines or something?”I laugh, trust Mia. “No idea to be honest, I suspect some are. To be honest I’m just so grateful he even let you come. Was it awful, you know having a blindfold on and all of that nonsense.”I show her to the sofa in the grand room which is decorated in the palest peach shade on the walls where many oil paintings hang of his family through the generations. They must have cost a fortune to be commissioned, I’m not entirely sure how I feel with them all looking down on me.Mia takes a seat on the jade vel
NicoI walk away shaking my head, it’s like dealing with a child sometimes. Does she not know how serious this is? Or does she simply think she is beyond everything? That nobody can hurt her? I mean she was standing right by me when the shot went off.I don’t know whether I am angry because of her attitude or turned on by her stubbornness and relentless search of freedom. Seriously, the woman is not my hostage, she can come and go as she likes. But it will be at her own expense and God help me if anything happens to her.My hand finds its way to my heart, I clutch it at the thought of anything happening to Lucky. It strikes me odd that I haven’t even liked this woman before and yet now, well now everything is so different.And listening to her read to me in bed last night was like music to my ears. I swear it was the first good night’s sleep I have had in a very long time. Her voice was soft, gentle not the harshness she tones when she speaks directly to me.“Good morning, Brother,” T
LuckyMia has left, she was only allowed to be with me for a couple of hours. God, I hate him controlling everything I do like this. Okay, so I get it, totally I do. He needs to keep us safe, it’s not like my own father didn’t allow me to go out at times, especially when there was blood on the streets. But that feels different to now.I was a kid, a young girl growing up and he was my father. Being told what I can and can’t do by Nico is driving me insane.“Lucky, your parents will be here soon. Do you want to get changed?” I am taken by surprise as Nico’s voice is soft almost caressing, as he enters the library and what a library. It’s evident this man has a healthy passion for books if this and the one at the island are anything to go by.“What, sorry? I was miles away.” I’ve decided that maybe changing track may help. What if I try to play nice and soften around the edges. This is exhausting enough as it is without us warring with each other. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not going to lay
NicoSeeing Lucky with her parents causes me to have a bang of guilt, I have taken her away from her family. Her brothers are supposed to be here but they’re too strong headed to see sense. Apparently, they think they can take on the world and will find the shooter.Fucking good luck to them, even I am having difficulty finding out who it was. On other matters, Dario is now here too. I feel better that he is safe within this residence. We have set up one of the master suites upstairs for him with round the clock care. So far, he is refusing to talk to anyone, even though he is now lucid. His withdrawal is not a pretty sight, but he has to tough it out otherwise he’ll wind up dead on the streets.“You look like you have the weight of the world on your shoulders, Son,” my father says as he comes to stand next to me where I look on at Lucky and her family embracing.“No more than usual, father. How are you feeling?” His health has started to deteriorate but he’s had a good innings now hea
LuckyHe looks stern, his eyes are blazing as he takes off his tie and loosens his collar, clenches his fists, rakes his hands through his hair then starts to unbutton his shirt. From the mahogany table by the large floor to ceiling windows, he takes his tumbler and knocks back the amber liquid.Breeze comes through the open doors causing the sheer curtains to billow, it’s almost romantic only there is nothing romantic about our scenario. How I long for that, someone to lovingly put their arms around me, to call me special names to tell me they love me. I sigh. He glances my way.His eyes are dark, brooding and his lips are set in a thin line. “What’s up with you?” I ask him as I slip out of my heels, my feet ache maybe it’s time to start wearing flats like Mia. Maybe she has a point, I sit down on the large bed and rub my aching feet.Nico glances down at my hands in motion and places his glass down on the table and comes towards me. “What are you doing?” I ask him wondering why he i
NicoHer eyes are dark, her long eyelashes flutter against her cheek as I run my thumb along her jaw. She looks up and my heart races, will this thoroughbred of a woman finally give in to me. Will we consummate our relationship tonight?My dick strains in my pants and feels uncomfortable, hell I haven’t had sex in so long except for with my hand in the shower which is of course, not the same thing. I need to have Lucky, I need to make her mine, claim my ownership of this woman who has defied me at every angle, fought against me for the last six months. It is time, and yes, I did say she would have to beg me but now, I just need to take her. My desire is unleashing itself like a beast.“Yes,” she breathes out, I can see her chest rising and falling. Did I just hear her right? What no fight, no resilience. It was what I expected. I look down at her and take in the beauty of the woman with her gorgeous long, black hair hanging down her shoulders, I move a strand behind her ears.Her lips
