Author Pov"What the fuck man?" Rafael cursed loudly jumping off the couch when a jug of water was thrown over his face. He blinked his eyes wiping his face to see the culprit. He rolled his eyes when he came face to face with his raging man."Xavier, what the hell do you think you are doing?" He gritted out unbuttoning his shirt to get rid of the damped material."That's the same question I fucking want to ask! Why haven't you found Valerie yet?" He snarled breathing heavily. Rafael rolled his eyes leaving his half-naked tattooed body on display throwing the shirt away."I am not obliged to answer you dipshit!

He needs to be taught a lesson and for that reason, he got a call from Sinister

The way she asked him to take her right now felt like a dream has come true for him.He slowly wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her near him. She gulped looking into his eyes with desire and want. She entangled her fingers in his silky hairs pulling his head a little lower so his lips could be an inch away from hers."I want you, Rafael. I want you badly." She whispered and in a second her lips got swallowed by his.
