Leilani’s head felt hazy as she could already feel the alcohol working its way up her system but instead of trying to put a stop to what was happening, she deepened the kiss and leaned into his tall frame.Her hands went around his shoulders as she grabbed onto them tighter holding herself up in his arms.The kiss soon became frantic and she felt the hardening bulge in his pants, she wanted him more than ever.“You taste so sweet,” Lorenzo said, lapping at her bottom lip, her moans filling his ears and he couldn’t wait to hear her cry out his name.Directing her quickly towards the bed he grabbed her butt lifting her from the ground and placing her gently on the bed.“No, no I want you” Leilani protested when the man got up, the low rumble of his chuckle against her skin made her close her thighs together rubbing it for friction.“Are you certain you wanna do this because I might actually not stop when I start,” the man said and she smiled, while he took off his clothes she hurriedly
Leilani groaned gently in her sleep and then tried to pull away as the pressure around her neck was too much and she could actually choke to death.She coughed gently and then opened her eyes.She was wrapped in Lorenzo’s embrace, and she wished for nothing more than to remain there.However, the incident of the previous night rushed her, and she closed her eyes again.She was fully aware and conscious of what they had done. Even when the man had asked her if she was sure she wanted it, she had urged him to continue.All this while, it had been taking everything in her to not succumb to the craving she was feeling for the man and yesterday, it had taken nothing but his scent to make her lose control.She opened her eyes again, and then gently raised her head to look at the man who slept peacefully and she sighed.This might actually be the first time she would see him sleeping so soundly as he was always waking before her.She glanced at his long lashes, and then dropped her eyes on h
“Are you okay?” He asked as she stood upright and then adjusted her clothes.“H… hi,” she stuttered.Lorenzo dropped his head to look at the woman whose face was totally red and she was trying hard to not meet with his gaze.He shook his head and then said. “Good morning.”“Yeah… morning,” she nodded her head.“Actually…” she sniffed, staring at the fingers that she was picking on.“I was going to remind you that Mia is still around so you should not come out till… she has left. You understand, right?”“Okay.”“Yeah,” she nodded her head.“So?” “Yeah, she is having hangover soup downstairs. Martha made it for her,” she said as the man had asked.“Okay.”“Yes.”“Good.”“Exactly,” she nodded her head and then whirled around.“Oh, just stay calm, woman,” he dropped his hands on her shoulder and then shook her gently.“What?”“Why are you reckless?”She finally looked up to meet with his eyes, pouted her lips, and then shook her head.“Nothing,” She shook her head and answered in a whisp
The room was unusually silent and Lorenzo wouldn’t stop stealing glances at the woman who sat across him, her face fully buried in her food.She didn’t even raise her head to look around or anything.He shook his head and resumed eating.After a while, Martha slammed her hands on the table gently and then breathed out.“What is going on? Do you two talk it out?”“What?” He asked.“The atmosphere between you two right now? You don’t wanna get me started. I know how it is usually cozy in the dining room here. So, tell me, is anything bothering you.”“No.”“Yes.”Leilani and Lorenzo Cho rushed respectively.“There is nothing, Martha,” Leilani glanced at the woman, and then Lorenzo.“There is, Martha. She is avoiding me.”“Oh, is she?”“Yes. First, look at where she sat. She’s not even talking at all, or looking at me or something.”“Did you do anything to her?”Leilani raised her head and their eyes met. She bit her lower lips and then shook her head at the man.“No,” he shook his head.
They both sat in silence for a few seconds, almost a few minutes in fact before Lorenzo asked, “So, you regret it?”“W… what? No!” she sprang up and waved her hands at him.Lorenzo leaned back comfortably at the confused woman and then shook his head. “So?”“Of everything, I do not regret it. I mean it!” she exclaimed when he would not stop nodding his head.“So?”She shook her head, exhaled, and then returned to her seat. “C…can we not talk about this, please?”“Lani?”“As much as I enjoyed it and do not regret it, it still does not change the fact that it should not have happened. I let my l… lust take the better of me.”Lorenzo tore his eyes from her and shook his head. It was never his intention to rush things with her.Even if it would take him several years, he didn’t mind, as long as she stayed with him.Seeing the woman beat herself up because of what happened almost made him blame himself too.But, he couldn’t.The previous night was fun.She was perfect, and every moment he
“So, the first competition which occurs only in the institutions takes place on the fifteenth of next month, and the first five winners will be participating in the main contest and represent the whole institution.”The man announced and then exited the class.While they all murmured, Leilani turned to Anna and then shook her head.“I don’t understand.”“It is a competition that happens every year. All art academies in the country will be participating,” she answered.“Uhm…” Leilani nodded her head, trying to understand better.“So, it is the institution’s responsibility to provide their five best students, hence the competition that will first occur next month.”“Oh, so after that, the winners will proceed to represent the school, yeah?”“Yes! You get it. And only three winners will be picked at the end of the day.”“From each institution?”“No. In total, there will only be three winners. I heard it is a real deal, though. Many would do anything to be in the contest. Participating in
“You really are talking about your wife, Leilani?” Nicholas asked again.Lorenzo leaned in his seat, shook his head, and then hissed, “How many wives do I have, Nich?”“How did she get tangled with them?”“You didn’t see the recent brouhaha she got in?”“When?” Nicholas rushed to the table, grabbed his phone and then browsed through it.“You’re late already if you didn’t see it. It has been taken down?”“Fuck, What happened?”“Tell me! I have been so occupied lately so I didn’t see it.”“Apparently, she attends the same art academy as Caleb and the man had dared fall for her. Even though he knew she was married, he asked her out regardless. She didn’t agree with him, and he picked up a fight. In public.”“That is dumb.”“It really is.”“So, you are worried they are gonna come after her?”“He suddenly returned to his family after a long time. I don’t trust him to not make any move. And do you know what is more disturbing?”“What?”“He is still in that academy. He went there today too.
The class finally ended and while Leilani packed her things, Caleb moved over to her table and Anna stood up instantly.“You are not about to start another drama, Caleb, just be on your fucking way this instant.”“Cool down, tigress,” he groaned and then dropped his hand on the table in front of the lady.Leilani didn’t raise her head still, she kept putting her brushes in the purse and the man didn’t say anything either till she was done.She finally raised her head after she had finished packing her things and then stood up.“Let’s go, Anna,” she flashed the lady a smile, totally ignoring the man’s presence.“Let’s talk,” he snatched his tongue.“I have nothing to say to you,” she hissed and moved away.As she approached the door, exiting the space, she ignored the people who had stopped just to witness what was about to happen again while Anna trailed behind her.“Fuck,” Caleb groaned from where he stood, dropping his hands in his pocket, and then removed a packet of cigars in his
“Leave these people alone, Agnes. Just let them be,” Aaron groaned as he walked out of the closet.“Let them be? Did you see the recent incident regarding that woman?”“I heard about it. The articles have been taken down, have they not? I bet he has it under control.”“Do you have any idea who these people are, Aaron? It is barely a month since she joined the family and she would not stop causing problems. At first, she made him leave the house. She sweet-talked him into leaving the house, and then now, she got into trouble with the son of a notorious crime lord.”“First, honey, that woman was not the reason she had left the house. You should have known Enzo already. He would do whatever he wanted because he wanted to and besides, you pushed him to leave.”“Me? How? How could you even say that?”“You slapped his wife, Agnes. You hit his wife.”“She deserved it, Aaron, and you know that. She was going to bring ruin into this family.”“And second…” he cleared his throat, ignoring her la
Leilani sat upright when her stomach suddenly growled, indicating that she was hungry and then dropped the brush in her hand.It had been over a couple of hours since she arrived at her workspace and had started to work on a new project.She had eaten only a little during breakfast. She didn't take out any snacks or lunch from home either, and definitely, she was not going to eat out without Lorenzo or Mia around.Thinking of Lorenzo, she stood from where she sat and then walked over to the table where she had dropped her bag and then picked it up. She removed her phone and then stared at the home screen blankly for almost a minute.He hadn’t called her. Not even once.Her phone was only filled with notifications from the gram and she hissed out unconsciously.She should not be angry, right?She had asked for it, hadn’t she?She wanted this, no?She knew that, on a normal day, the man would have called to ask how she was doing.She breathed out in frustration and then returned to her
