Shadow POV:I stand up abruptly as she walks over to me in a hurry. She jumps into my arms and I catch her holding on to her tightly "I missed you," she says wrapping her arms around my neck and holding me close "I missed you too, tsvetok" I kiss the top of her head. Her scent sends a wave of calmness over me. I tighten my arms around her and I let out a sigh of contentment. We stand like this for a minute and then a quiet sob leaves her lips "Oh no sweetheart what's wrong," I asked pulling away. I gently put her down and I wipe away the tears. I plant a kiss on her forehead and look back down at her "Shhh," she says softly. My eyebrows furrow in confusion. She points a finger at the earpiece and I slowly nod"I missed you so much," she says dramatically and then sniffles. She sits down on the table and parts her legs for me. I took a quick sharp inhale as she grinned. Okay, fuck this is the first real boner I’ve had in days “What are you doing” I whispered softly. She pulls out
Amari POV: Shutting the car door I ran towards the front door. The guards look at me weirdly but I don't care. Opening the door I rush towards the living room finding them examining the artwork on the walls. Bending over I try to catch my breath"Mom, Bella," I say and they turn around with big smiles. Bella rushes over to me and picks me up twirling me around"Oh gawd look at you," she says putting me back down"Fuck I just might be Bi but today has confirmed that I'm just gay," she says grinning. Leaning over I shake my tits in front of her face and she pretends to faint. Chuckling she puts me down and I walk over to mom"Hi Mom," I say softly as I step toward her "Hi honey" she brings me in for a hug and I wrap my arms around her"I'm glad you're okay," she says kissing the top of my head "I promise he loves me, Mom," I say assuring her and she nods. We have so much to talk about "Speaking of him loving me uhm he-" I start to say as I play with my ring but Bella cuts me off "O
Shadow POV:"Can you do me a favor?" I say tucking a strand of Ms.Russo’s strawberry-blonde hair behind her ear“Anything" she blushed looking up at me. So easy "Come visit me later tonight okay preferably 7 pm "I grin at her"Are you sure I figured after your fianc-""Shh dekta, she's cool," I say leaning closer to her. I lick my lips and she eases up "Yeah uhm she is," she says shyly like something significant happened"So yes?" I ask caressing her cheek"Uhm I guess I can I'll just make something up" she smiles placing her hand on my chest. Looking down at her hand I see a beautiful green ring on her finger. Picking up her hand I take a closer look at it"Who's the lucky man" I ask smirking and she sheepishly smiles"Oh uhm it's my ex-husband's parting gift for me," she says looking at the beauty of the ring"It’s beautiful" I smile. Too bad the owner doesn't live up to the standard of it. It would look amazing on Amari thoughKilling Ms. Russo just seems too easy. She’s 24, liv
Amari POV:We both stand in the middle of the dimly lit room five feet apart "You’re naked," he says clearing his throat and I look down at myself. It only clicks now that I'm in lingerie but unlike other times today I feel confident for some reason"And you’re covered in blood," I say tucking a strand of my hair behind my ear. He grins rubbing the scruff on his chin as he strides towards me looking every bit of dominating "And something tells me you're turned on by it" he smirks and I think it over. I mean there’s just something so sexy about him covered in blood looking. Clenching my thighs I try to ease out the ache in between my legs. He puts his finger under my chin and raises it so that I'm looking up at him"Are you tsvetok?" he asked in a sultry tone. I blush trying to shy away but his grip on my chin tightens. Feeling his strong arm wrap around me, his scent mixed with the scent of blood has the ache worsening "Uhm I-", he caresses my cheek and leans down"Not so confident
Amari POV: "What" I rasp closing my eyes shut when he reaches my lower abdomen. His lips hover over my clit and I fist the sheets the anticipation killing me."I'm sorry," he says kissing my inner thigh and I sigh not understanding where this is going"For what" I ask and he pauses"Look at me," he says growing serious. Rising a bit I rest my weight on my elbows so I'm looking at him"I'm sorry for how I acted back at the cabin I uhm," he says nervously, and now I sit up straighter so that I'm giving him my devoted attention"I have PTSD and I didn't take my meds," he says not even looking at me truly speaking I've never seen Shadow this sincere. I honestly don't know what to do. I’m shocked and relieved that his being vulnerable with me right now "A long time ago I promised myself that I wouldn’t and I couldn’t fall in love with someone but I can’t keep lying to myself about how I feel about you," he says staring into space and I go towards him. Grabbing his face I make him look at
Shadow POV:I never went back to our room last night and quite frankly I just sat in my office drinking my frustration away. But it's 6 am now and I promised Amari I'll do betterSecuring my robe around my waist I walk out of my office. I walk down the hallway and the staircase and I enter the kitchen. Seeing someone sitting on the counter I pull out my gun ready to shoot but then I see the blonde hair. Oh it’s Bella"Hey," I say and she jumps off the counter clutching her cereal bowl in freight"Holy shit" is what she says when she turns around to see me"Fuckin in hell" she curses as she puts her bowl of cereal down"Sorry I didn't mean to scare you," I say opening the fridge and taking out the eggs"Uhm no ar- are you making Amari breakfast," she asked with a wide grin on her face and I rolled my eyes. I don’t know Bella or how to feel about her but she’s Amari’s best friend she can’t be that bad "Oh. my. god," she says smiling like a crazy woman whilst shoving a spoon of cereal i
Bella POV:God, it's always the good-looking ones that are such pricks. Marching towards Daniel's room I start banging on his door and then I turn the handle "What t-" Cutting him off I march into his room and start my rant"I just can't believe Xavier is such an asshole not to mention you were right his not a good guy shit what is his deal" I scream flopping onto his bed bedside him. He is quiet for a while so I sit up to see him looking at me with sleepy eyes and bedridden hair "Bella what are you doing here" he groans in his morning voice and I only realize now that I woke him up. Oh shit "Shit I'm sorry I didn't realize you were asleep," I say and he yawns running a hand through his hair ruffling it even more. Why the hell does he have to be so sexy?"Fuck so Xavier's really here," he asked sitting up and resting his back on the headboard. Wait what’s that smell "Oh my god you reek of alcohol," I say pinching my nose. I was too busy ranting I didn’t even realize it smelled lik
Amari POV:Xavier and I ate breakfast then we took a shower together. He suggested we head into town but instead, he flew us to Italy. I should have known he didn't mean the local town in MoscowAfter landing he got us a car that dropped us off in a street filled with many boutiques. Turning to Xavier I looked at him in confusion. I thought we came to get the ring "What are we doing here," I ask and he smiles pecking my lips"Shopping spree," he says climbing out of the car and waiting for me to do so. Grabbing his hand I jump out of the car. Still surprised and slightly confused I look at all the beautiful buildings. I knew I was homesick but being here now is making me realize that I missed Italia "We didn't have to go to Italy for this, "I say hooking my arm on his"Well you're half Italian aren't you so let's see if you're any good" he walks us towards a boutique with cute pretty dresses. Opening the door the bell dingles and the lady by the counter walks up to us"Salve, come p
