E L L E"This is the worst birthday ever," I sighed, biting my lips.Giovanna shared a look with Avery and shook their head, she was probably tired of hearing me say that throughout the drive. They had insisted on me following them to the mall to pick a few dresses to uplift my mood. And I was wearing one of those dresses right now on the way to wherever they were taking me. They said it looked perfect on me and I shouldn't bother taking it off.It was weird, but I didn't argue with them. Today is my 28th birthday and the only person who wished me were Avery and Giovanna. No calls from my parents, or even Mikhail. Nobody. It made me worried and hurt. Did he forget? We spoke on the phone throughout the night, and he didn't remember it was my birthday the next day? I tried to call him earlier, but his phone was switched off.What the hell?The car stopped outside a hotel and we stepped out."I still don't get it," I said as we made our way into the lobby."You'll see," Giovanna smile
E L L EI walked out of the shower and grabbed the towel from the counter. The music from the television downstairs filled the house, and I couldn't help the smile that spread across my face.It was almost ten, and the party had ended a few hours ago. My family and friends had gone home. Giovanna and Avery had spent the last hour helping me clean up and pack the presents. They said they needed to rush home and take care of some urgent business.So, they left.And, it was only Mikhail and I.It had been a long day. But the most fun I'd had in a long time. I didn't think the day would end like this, with him at my house.He was downstairs, making us dinner while I took a quick shower.I wrapped the towel around me and walked to the closet and found a pair of shorts and Mikhail's loose tee-shirt. After getting dressed, I walked back into the bathroom and quickly blow dried my hair, leaving it slightly damp.I went downstairs and found Mikhail sitting on the couch, drinking a glass of win

This chapter contains detailed sexual content and it's rated 18+E L L EMikhail walked us over to the bed and laid me gently on the bed, his eyes locked with mine."Last chance, baby.""Yes."He lowered his head and captured my lips with his.It was a slow, soft, sensual kiss, filled with so much meaning and my heart jumped.My fingers found their way under his shirt and pulled it up and he broke the kiss long enough to pull it over his head and tossed it onto the floor.He unbuttoned my shorts and shirt and slid it off my body, revealing my black thong and bra, his hands roaming over my legs."I can't believe you're letting me have you, baby.""Me neither. It feels like a dream.""This is very much real." He breathed and pressed his lips against my neck, trailing kisses down to my chest.I lifted my head and bit his lip, tugging lightly.He unclasped my bra and threw it onto the floor, his tongue swirled around my left nipple, and I moaned.He cupped my breasts, and I gasped
WARNING! This chapter contains detailed sexual content and it's rated 18+E L L EI bobbed my head back and forth, trying to take as much of him as possible, but it wasn't easy. He was huge, and my jaw hurt a little from his size."Fuck, Elle. That's it. Keep going, baby." He drawled out, his eyes filled with ecstasy. I cupped his balls and kept sucking his cock, and I felt him stiffen, and his fingers tightened around my hair."No, baby. I'm going to come."He gently pushed me onto the bed and spread my legs open, his hands on my hips, holding me in place.He leaned down and brushed his lips against mine, and slowly pushed the tip of his cock into me.I bit his lip and he grunted and thrust forward, his cock stretching my pussy."Ahhh..." I moaned, feeling uncomfortable for a second. The fact that I haven't had sex in so long and Mikhail was big, was enough to make me gasp. "You're so fucking tight." He hissed, pleasure over clouding his face. He looked even sexier, and I got even m
M I K H A I LI woke up to the most exquisite sight, a very naked Elle, sleeping soundly beside me, her long lashes resting on her cheeks, her soft lips slightly parted, and her wild curly hair splayed around her.She was an angel, and she was all mine.I leaned forward and kissed her forehead and she stirred in her sleep.I smiled and carefully got up, not wanting to disturb her, and went into the bathroom.A few minutes later, I walked back into the bedroom, and she was still asleep.I pulled on my boxers and jeans and quietly opened the door, shutting it softly behind me.The hallway was dark, and the rest of the house was quiet. It was barely seven in the morning. I went into the kitchen and made some coffee and sat on the stool, sipping the hot drink.I went through my mails on my phone, realizing I needed to be at work later today. I continued scrolling through my phone when I heard light footsteps slowly descending the stairs, and I looked up.Elle walked into the kitchen, yaw
M I K H A I LI turned my car's engine off in front of my company, opening up my phone to look at Elle's picture for the hundredth time today.It was a picture I took of her on her birthday, and it was by far my favorite picture of her. She had a soft smile on her face, her curls framing her face, her hazel eyes glowing with happiness, and the cake and presents beside her.I decided the picture was too good to be shared on social media, and kept it all to myself. I quickly used it as my lock screen and chat wallpaper. A few people greeted me on my way inside, and I waved, rushing toward my office.Once I entered, I closed the door and slumped down on my chair, taking a deep breath.Ivan walked into my office and rose a brow as he saw me. "Is it me or your face seems brighter these days? What's the secret man?" He said, plopping down on the chair across from me, his hands folded.I chuckled and leaned back, "It's nothing. Just happy with how everything's turning out.""Yeah. Business
M I K H A I LSebastian's face turned red, his knuckles turning white from gripping the arm of his chair too tightly. "You fucking bastard.""What? Can't stand seeing me with the woman you let go? Is this your pathetic attempt to win her back?" I mocked. "If I wanted her back, you'd already be dead." He threatened, his jaw clenched.I simply rolled my eyes, "Yeah, okay. You're not the first person to threaten my life. But the last thing you should worry about is me, it's her. And that's why I'm warning you right now. If you even think about hurting her, you'll regret it. I promise.""Enjoy Elle while you can, because soon you'll see her for who she really is. She's just a manipulative, heartless bitch that deserves the worst. And you're nothing but a temporary fuck, because that's all she wants. You're no different than her.""You're just bitter because she realized what an asshole you were. She's a strong woman, and she doesn't need you. You're just wasting your time and energy thin
E L L E We entered the restaurant and the hostess guided us to a table where a couple was seated. The man had dark hair, green eyes and was tall, his features strong. He was quite handsome. The woman had blonde hair and blue eyes, her facial features soft. She was pretty. "Ivan." Mikhail greeted, smiling. "Mikhail." He stood and they shook hands, hugging briefly. "This is Elle. My girlfriend." Mikhail said, and I felt a tingle run through my body when he referred to me as his girlfriend. "Hello, nice to meet you." I smiled. "Elle, this is Ivan, my best friend. And this is Emily." I didn't miss the flicker in Ivan's eyes as he looked at Emily. Weren't they dating? Why didn't Mikhail address her as Ivan's girlfriend. I internally shook my head. I was thinking too much. "Nice to meet you, Elle. You look gorgeous." Emily smiled, and we shook hands. I smiled, her accent reminding me of Mikhail. "Thanks. You look beautiful too." Mikhail pulled out the chair for me and I took a s
E L L EI was still standing in shock and disbelief. What exactly was Sebastian doing here? And, did he seriously walk into the birthday party of my best friend, with his mistress?This was the first time I was seeing him in months, and I didn’t like it one bit. I was certain that Avery or Giovanna hadn’t invited him, or did she? No. Giovanna didn’t even know about the birthday party to begin with. So, who else could have invited him?“What the fuck is he doing here?” Mikhail growled behind me, circling his arms around my waist protectively, pulling me closer.His body was tense, and I could feel his heart beating against his chest.Sebastian was holding his mistress' hand, and they were smiling, looking as happy as a couple could be.He was wearing a grey suit and the woman had her hair styled into a perfect bun, she was very beautiful. Her eyes were big and blue, and her face was covered in make-up. Her black dress hugged her slender body, and she looked very classy.Her face looked
E L L EI sat at my vanity table, my towel wrapped around my body as I started with my make-up. I applied a light foundation, followed by a little blush, mascara, and red lipstick.My eyes were bright, and my cheeks were flushed. I looked absolutely different, and I could definitely see the glow that everyone was talking about. My skin was literally flawless, and I haven't had a single acne in months. The baby was trying to show the world that she's going to be a good girl, but is literally about to rupture my ribs from her constant kicks.She was a very active baby at just seven months. Two more months to go, and it could even get worse. Mikhail was busy getting ready, and he had been checking up on me constantly to make sure I was fine.I took out the hair curler and curled my hair into loose curls, letting it fall around my shoulders.Afterwards, I put on a light perfume, and stepped into my dress. The shimmery yellow mermaid gown clung tightly to my body, accentuating my curves. M
M I K H A I LI drove my car into the driveway, and turned off the engine. After a few talks with the security guards, I walked into the house with a bouquet of Elle's favorite flowers.It was strangely quiet today, because I usually see Elle in the living room, either watching a movie or sleeping.I decided to go up the stairs and look for her in the bedroom. As soon as I twisted the door open and stepped in, I was met in a dark dimly lit room.There were candles everywhere and flowers and rose petals on the floor. The sight before me almost knocked the air out of my lungs. The sweet scent from the candles, her scent, it was all overwhelming. Elle was in a red lingerie. A sexy two piece lingerie, and her stomach was protruding. She looked like a goddess. One who God has taken his precious time creating under the moonlight, perfectly moulding each and every curve and feature.She was the definition of perfection. A gorgeous goddess. Her hair was flowing down her back, and she had he
E L L EI was home all alone today because I just didn't feel like going to work. I wanted some peace and quiet, and quite frankly, I was too lazy to go anywhere.Today would be my off day. To sleep, watch a movie, snack and repeat.I had a huge bowl of popcorn and my eyes were glued to the TV, watching the romantic comedy I had rented from the library.It was a beautiful Friday and the weather was perfect, and I wanted to relax and spend the day alone.My phone was on silent and the door was locked. I was having a relaxing time, and no one could mess with me. I placed the huge bowl of popcorn on my belly. Yes, this baby was growing too fast that my belly was not big enough to hold the popcorn.I was a quarter through the movie when my doorbell rang, and I frowned. I paused the movie and sat up. Who could that be?It rang again, and then there was a loud banging on the door.I groaned and got up, walking to the door."Hold on a second!"I opened the door and was met with wide grins. "
L A U R AI was sitting on my couch, setting up the food I had ordered down for Sebastian and I.Just a few seconds later, a knock sounded at the door.I went to open the door, and I was greeted by Sebastian standing in a dark casual outfit, a dark blue jeans and black shirt, his hair slicked back and his piercing blue eyes meeting mine."Hi.""Hey, gorgeous." He said, smiling as he took me in, his gaze moving slowly over my body, and I blushed."Come in.""I brought some wine and dessert." He said, showing the wine bottle."Great, the food is already here, and it's all set up. Thank you.""Thanks for inviting me over. You have no idea how much I missed seeing you." He said, pulling me into a tight hug, his musky scent hitting my nose, making my insides warm and fuzzy."I missed you too, Seb."He pulled away, and I had to try so hard to fight off the burning blush crawling up my cheeks."I hope you like the dessert, and the wine. I wasn't sure which wine to buy, so I bought the red, s
L A U R AMy eyes narrowed into a glare, and I frowned. "Excuse me? What do you mean?""Sebastian Black is a ruthless bastard, and he is the last man you should be messing with. He's a heartless asshole." Giovanna stated, and her voice held authority and anger.I could hear the venom lacing her voice. Why would she be so mad and disgusted at Sebastian?"You are the sweetest girl I know, and have a heart of gold. And, Sebastian, the man is just a walking corpse. He's an animal, and has a heart of ice.""How would you know?" I asked, feeling defensive. I didn't like the way she was speaking about Sebastian. How does she know him? What exactly does she know about him that's making her say such things about him? What business does she have with him?"That man doesn't deserve your love, Laura. He destroyed my best friend. They had a very messy divorce that cost my best friend a lot. When he realized that he has been living with the real enemy, he now wants her forgiveness. He still loves h
L A U R AAfter a two hour nap, filled with tossing and turning on my bed, thinking about the events that took place this afternoon, and the visit from the evil witch, I finally managed to get up and take a shower.It was almost eight, and it was time for me to get ready for dinner at my cousin's place.I walked into the bathroom, and stripped out of my clothes.Once I was completely naked, I turned the faucet, and water gushed out, filling the large tub with warm water.I stepped inside the bath, and sighed in relief.The tension eased from my shoulders, and my mind was clear.It was time to relax, and forget about what happened earlier today.After the long, and much needed, hot bath, I stepped out of the tub, wrapping a towel around my body.I grabbed the brush and combed through my hair.After drying it a bit, I went to my closet and picked an outfit. I didn't dress fancy, because I wasn't planning on going anywhere afterwards.Once I was done, I headed to the kitchen and grabbed t
L A U R AMy car pulled to a stop in front of my office. "Look, I have to hang up now. Work calls." I said to Sebastian on the phone. His call had woken me up this morning and he stayed all through my shower, dressing up and arriving at work.And there was never a point where the conversation got awkward or boring. We always had something to talk about, like we've known each other our whole lives."Okay. Dinner, tonight?" He asked and a smile pulled at my lips.Unfortunately, I already had plans for tonight. "I'm sorry, maybe another time? I already agreed on dinner with my cousin and her girlfriend. But, tomorrow is my off, you could come over to my place and we could order some food and watch movies or something.""Sounds like a plan. Text me when it's time.""I will.""Goodbye, beautiful.""Goodbye, Sebastian.I disconnected the call, and smiled.This was the first time I've actually smiled and felt good in the morning, and it was all because of Sebastian. I was afraid that I was st
M I C H A E LI stood in the corner, watching as Elle and her boyfriend made their way out of the event. I rubbed a hand over my face in frustration as soon as their car sped into the distance. I didn't mean to scare her the way I did, I was just desperate for her to learn the real truth about what happened in Bali.I had expected that reaction from her, but I had thought that I would've been able to calm her down and get to talk her and tell her everything. But, I wasn't going to give up. Not until she knew the truth."Fuck!" I muttered, frustrated, running a hand through my hair. It's not gonna be easy. She hates my guts, and I was the cause of her trauma. What did I expect? I'm such an idiot.I sighed, turning to the exit.I had come here in a disguise, knowing that Mikhail's security detail would send me out as soon as they realized I was invited for this event, but I couldn't wait.This was the only way to reach Elle and tell her everything.I had followed her and Mikhail everywh
