POV: Heather“I’m sorry Xan, I didn’t know you had other plans for the night,” I let out sarcastically, moving to leave his arms. But he held me back, holding me firmly in place to stop me from moving. He still had his eyes on me, and by this time he couldn’t glare anymore. The anger seems to have disappeared from his face and he’s staring at me in a way that made me feel special.It’s as I’m still staring into Pegasus eyes, but no, it’s Xander's eyeballs I’m looking into. And I find warmth in them as he gazes at me with feelings I can’t really explain at this moment. You would think that Vinnie suddenly disappeared from the room, leaving us alone again. But that is far from the truth, she is standing right there, staring at us with venom in her eyes. And Xander doesn’t seem to care about her presence, although it’s making me a little uncomfortable. If I try to move or make an attempt to leave, he glares at me, forcing me to stay still under him and just look into his eyes. Next unhea
POV: Heather“Come here,” he ordered, sounding firm but calm. I acted as if I didn’t hear him, I just kept lying still, pretending to be asleep.“Please, Butterfly, I need you.” He let out calmly, making my heart flutter with desire. I know how difficult it is for him to admit this, but I can’t shake off the feeling of rejection in my heart. He had rejected me earlier, not even caring if his reaction to my seduction could hurt my feelings. But when he said harsh words to Vinnie, he went after her immediately. He’s such a liar. I bet he’s just trying to be nice to me to cover up for the fact that he has something going on with Vinnie that he doesn’t want to talk about.“No, you don’t. You need Vinnie and not me.” I retorted angrily, retaining my position on the bed.“Come on, cupcake. Don’t be like that. I need you right now, I really do.” He pleaded once more. He sounds so genuine, I don’t know why I don’t believe him.“You didn’t need me a while ago, Xan. You were so pissed when I tr
POV: XanderI’ve never been touched like this before, not even by Celia, my ex-wife. She kissed me softly, smiling widely as she did. Then she moved down to my neck, dropping light feathery kisses on my neck until she hit that sensitive spot that forced me to moan out softly. I dipped my head to the side, giving her more access to my sensitive spot. She continued her assault on my neck, making me buck my hips towards her.“Fuck,” I let out in pleasure as she nipped on that sensitive spot, grounding her hips to meet my erection, moaning out loudly with each movement. She pulled off my shirt, sitting on my hips as she undid my buttons. She took her time to caress my chest, smiling down at me as she did. When she was done ogling my bare chest, she leaned down and kissed my lips, softy, then she went down on me, placing soft kisses on my neck and chest.I growled in pleasure when she flicked her tongue over my nipple, biting down on my nipple softly before sucking on it to bring me more p
POV: HeatherCelia…My only rival…I wouldn’t have been this sad if he had moaned out Vinnie’s name. I’ve always known that he has something going on with her. So I wouldn’t have been too surprised if he had called out her name while we were having fun with each other.But it’s Celia, his ex-wife, the love of his life, the first woman he had ever fallen in love with, the woman that left him heartbroken and lonely for years. She was the Queen of his heart and first true love. So tell me, how do I compete with that?How do I compete with such perfection, how the hell don’t steal a man from a dead princess?First, it was Vinnie I was worried about, but as it stands, I don’t think Vinnie is the problem here. It’s Xander, he is still in love with his ex-wife. It’s obvious that he still hasn’t gotten over her death. As I listened to his explanation, I realized that it was not really his fault. I was set up by Alexia. She must be feeling hilarious today. I hope she had a good laugh, and I ho
POV: XanderDamn!She’s pissed!So fucking pissed. I’m such an idiot, I don’t deserve to be with someone as special as Heather. I guess Dad was right when he had me betrothed to Vinnie. I deserve to be punished with a mate as frivolous as Vinnie. I don’t deserve Heather, she’s too innocent to be with an idiot like myself.The more I explained myself to her, the more I realized that I was such an idiot. I can’t believe that I am trying to turn her into Celia. At first, I blamed it on her outfit and scent. I thought it was all Alexia’s fault because she had set me up with Heather by giving her the bathing gel and shampoo that Celia used. She gave her cute nighties and had her wear my favorite color to please me.I’d thought it was her fault, I would love to put the blame on her and put all this issue to rest. But the more I spoke to Heather in the room, trying to explain myself to her, the more I realized that it was nobody’s fault, but mine. It’s all my fucking fault. I wanted her to b
POV: Xander“Tell me already!” I yelled angrily, glaring at them furiously.“Come on, man. Don’t be like that. You know we can’t give you information based on hearsay. We have to confirm this story before we can tell you about it. It would be so wrong to destroy this beautiful relationship because of our assumptions. We need some time to…”“Shut the fuck up Alex, and just tell him. It’s not as if she killed Celia, or did she?” Leon scolded him, making me more curious when he mentioned Celia. What the hell are they talking about, and why would they even think that Heather knows anything about Celia’s death. For fucks sake she was just a kid when my wife was killed. Or are they trying to tell me that a mighty warrior like Celia would be killed by a freaking nine year old?“Look man, we all love and care about you. That is why Alex is too scared to shatter your hopes once more. We were there when you lost Celia, Xan. We know how you suffered after her death. The heartbreak was just too m
POV: Xander“Xan, are you okay?”“Xander say something,”“Come on man, you can’t blank out on us, say something, anything at all.” They called out to me, trying to get me to snap out of my reverie. I fell into a trace after I went through that damn file. Now I’m thinking that it would have been better if I’d just listened to him the first time and left that damn file alone.How do I begin to investigate this matter after I just professed my love to her. Where do I even begin to ask the questions that are troubling my mind right now. It’s as if the past keeps pulling me back. No matter how I go or where I go, the past keeps catching up to me. Just when I decided to move on with Heather, I discovered that she had a deep secret that could be the key to finding my dead wife’s murderers.If I want to find out the truth, I need to retrace her steps and find out how she arrived at this particular location. I need her full cooperation and I need the Alpha's help too. I know she’ll listen to m
POV: Xander“You’re stupid!So fucking stupid!It would be a cold day in hell before I’ll fall for one of your stupid tricks. I’m not one of those idiots you screw around with. You don’t scare me, Vinnie, and I’m certainly not going to screw you. As a matter of fact, I would like you to run to Dad and blab to him about Heather and I. I’m dying to tell him why you are seen around the Alpha son every fucking minute. In fact, I think Mira and the Luna would like to know where you spent the night before, don’t you think so?” I asked her, daring her to challenge me.“Threaten me one more time, Vinnie, and I’ll tell everyone what you do behind closed doors. You fucking whore!” I threatened furiously and turned to walk towards the exit, leaving her staring after me. I could feel her eyes boring holes in my back, but I couldn’t care less about her feelings, that is if she had any. To think that she actually believed that this tricky game of hers would work on me. What the hell is going throug
