------41------Camila was roused from sleep by the sound of Alejandro's voice as he spoke to someone on the phone. His laptop was open, and a few documents were spread out before him. She carefully pushed herself up and approached him."I thought we agreed you'd rest?" she mumbled, pouting her lips.Alejandro ended the call and placed his phone on the table. "I was bored, and you were asleep. I didn't want to wake you," he replied, pulling her close to his side."You could’ve just taken a nap beside me. It’s been a long day," she suggested."I don’t take naps," Alejandro simply responded before his phone rang again. Another business call. He answered it.Camila watched him for a while. He looked so serious while talking until a naughty idea crossed her mind. Smiling mischievously, she knelt in front of him and began caressing his thighs. Her actions made Alejandro glance down at her.The sight before him nearly drove him wild. She looked so small, kneeling between his legs, her ey
------ 42------Ace dropped Isabella off at precisely ten o'clock. She sat in the car, clutching her bag a little tighter than usual."Tonight was fun," she mumbled, her cheeks flushed with shyness."Yeah, I love it when your tongue plays with my tongue ring. I should wear a bigger one next time, just for you," he winked."Hey!" Isabella’s cheeks grew even redder. She glanced at the clock and gasped. "10:01! My mom told me to be home before ten. I'm so dead," she mumbled, packing the things he bought for her to leave but before she could touch the car door, Ace pulled her back."Will you go out with me again?" He asked."Set the date," she winked and opened the car door to step out, but on second thought, she rushed back to him and pressed her lips against his. He cupped her face, deepening the kiss, his tongue exploring her mouth. His lips left hers and trailed to her neck."You should leave now, Isabella, before I change my mind and take you home with me," he grunted, strugg
------43------“You’re his wife? We heard he got married!” she exclaimed excitedly. Before Camila could respond, the woman pulled her into a warm hug."Ahem," Chandler cleared his throat, and she reluctantly released Camila."I'm sorry, I'm just so excited," she said with a broad smile. “Forgive my manners. I’m Lucia, and oh my God, you're so beautiful,” she added, her eyes wide with surprise, as if she couldn’t believe who she was seeing.Camila felt a sense of ease around Lucia, though she found her a bit too clingy.“I’m Camila,” Camila replied with a smile.“Beautiful name. Let me show you both to your room,” Lucia said, taking Camila’s hand and leading the way.“She hasn’t had a friend in so long,” Chandler whispered to Alejandro regarding his sister’s behavior.“She’d better not try to take my wife from me,” Alejandro replied, causing Chandler to shake his head in amusement.“I still can’t believe you’re married now. You broke our code, man. I’m definitely telling the other guy
44NEXT DAY: BRIAR HIGH SCHOOL***“Brett,” Isabella called out as she chased after Brett when class was over. It was her only opportunity to talk to him and find out why he had been avoiding her.“Brett,” she called again. This time, he stopped running but didn’t turn to face her.“Shouldn’t you be with your boyfriend, Ace?” he replied, his voice tinged with jealousy.“Is that why you didn’t reply to my messages and have been avoiding me? Seriously, Brett, I thought we were friends. I thought you were different,” Isabella said, her voice full of disappointment.Brett finally turned to face her. “What do you expect from me? To just compliment you while you’re with another man? Fine, you looked breathtaking that night. You always do, Isabella, and damn, I—” He stopped himself when he realized he was saying too much.“I don’t even know what’s wrong with me,” he mumbled, and Isabella just stared at him, speechless.“I’m sorry if I scared you,” he sighed and began to walk away.“Did you me
------45------LUCIA'S PLACE **"The dry cleaner is this way, but just drop it there. My help will arrive soon and take care of it," Lucia said, leading Camila upstairs."Are you sure I can't just do it?" Camila asked, looking uncertain."Come on, you’re a queen! Does Alejandro let you do these kinds of things back in New York?" Lucia raised an eyebrow."Well, no, he doesn’t, but…""So, don’t worry about it," Lucia said, grabbing Camila's hand and leading her down the stairs. "You know, I wish to get married one day. I know your marriage didn’t start with love, but there's no denying the love you both have for each other now," Lucia sighed."Do you have someone you’re seeing?" Camila asked. Lucia shook her head."What about Chandler?" Camila asked again."Oh my!" Lucia burst out laughing."Did I say something wrong?" Camila blinked innocently."Chandler is my brother," Lucia said amidst laughter, and Camila's eyes widened."I’m sorry! I didn’t know that," she mumbled."It’s cool, we’
46"Oh my…" Lucia pretended to faint."How do I look?" Camila asked, looking unsure."So hot! If there’s something hotter than hot, then you look like fire. Damn, I’m not Alejandro, but I’m already speechless," Lucia admired her.The black lingerie had plenty of mesh and sexy belts. It was perfect for Camila’s body, showing off her curves and long legs, making her appear more seductive than usual."Trust me, Alejandro won’t be able to resist you. We’re taking it," Lucia told the worker."No, we’re not," Camila shook her head."Yes, we are!" Lucia argued. "Don’t you want to drive Alejandro wild and see him worship your body? Don’t you want to see that man on his knees? Camila, you’re the only one who has the power to do that!" Lucia persuaded her."I’ve never done this before," Camila mumbled."And that’s why you have me," Lucia winked.Camila reluctantly took off the lingerie, and they both went to the cashier to pay. The line wasn’t long, but Camila kept talking to Lucia about why li
47“Camila…” Alejandro gulped, his heart racing. “What are you wearing?” He asked, even though he could already see it, his mind too scattered to process anything clearly.“Do you like it?” Camila asked seductively. A plate of cherries sat next to her, and she picked one up, slowly putting it in her mouth, sucking on it teasingly.“Fuck…” Alejandro’s voice trembled as he wiped his eyes, making sure he wasn’t dreaming. He confirmed it; he was still sitting on his bed, wide awake, as he moved towards her.“What are you doing, Camila?” He placed his hands on her face, gently caressing her. “If this is some kind of stunt, you’ll regret it.” His thumb traced her lips, and she opened her mouth, sucking on it slowly.Alejandro’s eyes darkened with lust, his Adam's apple bobbing as he swallowed hard. "You’ll really regret this, Camila,” he muttered, pulling her head toward him for a deep kiss. His tongue invaded her mouth, exploring, desperate to get deeper.Camila’s fingers tangled in his ha
48 She was tight, making it difficult for him to go in."Damn it, Camila, am I the first man?" he asked, unable to stop himself. Camila shyly nodded.His excitement surged alongside something else—something he couldn’t quite identify. He kissed her deeply, pouring his gratitude into it."Thank you for trusting me, Camila. If it’s too painful, push me away, okay? It’s going to hurt a lot," he mumbled, pushing himself in a bit more."Ouch!" Camila cried out, her face contorted in pain. Alejandro paused, giving her a tender look."Keep going, I can take it," she assured him, her voice wavering."I promise it’ll feel better soon," Alejandro murmured as he thrust fully inside her. Her cries filled his ears, but he wiped her tears and began moving gently."It’ll feel good, I promise," he whispered, thrusting deeper. "You’re so good, babe, so divine," he gasped, his movements quickening.Camila cried until his words started coming true. Pleasure began replacing the pain, and she clutched hi
