The Alliance Red dress
ROSALINA'S POVThe hunt was on. I began to pull out one dress after another, each one holding memories of past parties and special occasions. There was the black cocktail dress I had worn to Selena's birthday last year, the floral sundress from that unforgettable summer trip in Italy with my family, and the elegant pink satin gown I had worn to my cousin's wedding.But tonight, it was all about the red dress. I sifted through the hangers, my fingers grazing the different fabrics – satin, silk, chiffon. Each one had its own unique appeal, but none felt quite right for tonight's party.God, I missed dolling up myself. It was as if I had lost a part of me ever since I joined the studio as if I had lost the fire I was known for. I was a bit grateful to Stacy and Nina for inviting me to the party, at least I got an excuse to wear my favorite heels again. I could feel the minutes ticking away, the pressure mounting as I continued my search. Finally, buried in the back of the closet, I spot
The Alliance Pink Unicorn
ROSALINA'S POV The cityscape gradually transformed as we neared our destination. The neon signs of clubs and bars painted the night with vibrant hues, and the pulse of the city's nightlife grew stronger with every passing block. Stacy's silver car pulled up to the curb in front of a sleek, dimly lit nightclub that seemed to have sprung out of the heart of the city itself. The thumping bass and muffled laughter spilled out onto the sidewalk, a siren call for revelers. The bouncer at the entrance checked our names off a list, and we stepped into the pulsating heart of the party. The nightclub's interior was a sensory explosion. Strobe lights cut through the darkness, illuminating the dance floor like a futuristic disco. The music was an intoxicating blend of electronic beats and soulful melodies, driving the crowd into a frenzy of movement. Stacy, Nina, and I navigated through the sea of bodies, our heels clicking in rhythm with the music. The air was thick with excitement, and the s
The Alliance Pink, red and purple
ROSALINA'S POVPink, red, and purple lights intertwined above us, casting a sensual spell as we continued our passionate dance. Each color seemed to symbolize a different facet of our connection: pink for desire, red for fiery intensity, and purple for the electric chemistry that bound us together."God, you are so beautiful that even the most vibrant red roses would pale in comparison." He sunk his hands into my hair, pulling my head back. Bringing his lips closer to my neck he whispered. "I've wanted to taste you since the moment I saw you under these intoxicating lights."His lips met the curve of my neck, and a soft gasp escaped my lips as he gently kissed and nipped his way up to my earlobe. I could feel the heat building between us, the desire in the air thickening with each heartbeat."And your scent," he continued, his voice husky with desire, "it's like the sweetest fragrance of roses in full bloom."He pulled away slightly, his eyes locked onto mine with an intensity that le
The Alliance Red
LEONARDO'S POV"You messed with the wrong girl, Armando," I growled, my voice deepening with anger and a promise of impending violence. My muscles tensed as I cracked my neck and knuckles, taking a step forward."This is our turf, Salvadori. Leave while you still can," Andrae's threat fell weak as he stepped back out of fear. Such a little bitch."Your turf huh?" I tilted my neck, "Funny how you think you can send your rats to MY turf and think you can get away with it." Honestly, I hadn't come here tonight to start a brawl. My sole purpose was to find Rosalina and get the hell out of this place without any trouble. But when I saw Andrae preying on her, all reason went out the window. I really did not like it when someone messed with what was mine. "Leo, let's just go," Rosalina's voice trembled as she clung to my arm, her eyes pleading with me to defuse the situation. But the damage had been done, and I couldn't let this slide.Plus, it's been a while since I used my fists to good
The Alliance Daddy
ROSALINA'S POV"Did you kiss him?" His voice was so cold, so devoid of the Leo I knew, that I wondered if this was really coming from him. "Did you let him touch you?""Maybe I did. I don't even know anymore," I replied, as tears welled up in my eyes. I was still in shock from what had happened, and his harsh tone only made everything more surreal.Leo scoffed at my response. "Why? Were you drunk?"I shook my head, feeling a lump forming in my throat. "Drugged."Surprise flickered across Leo's face, replacing some of the anger. "What drug?""It's called the pink unicorn," I said, panic taking hold of me as I remembered the events of the night. "I don't even know anymore. Everything felt like a dream."Leo's grip on the steering wheel tightened, and he glanced at me with a mix of concern and anger. "The pink unicorn is a rape drug, Rosalina. It's what they use to traffic women."My heart sank, and I felt a wave of nausea wash over me. The reality of what had happened in that club was h
The Alliance A game of push-and-pull
LEONARDO'S POVI couldn't believe how quickly she fell asleep just after coming on my fingers.The car's interior was filled with a peaceful silence, broken only by the soft hum of the engine and the occasional sound of Rosalina's breathing. I glanced at her sleeping form, her features relaxed in slumber, and a swell of tenderness took hold of me.I couldn't deny that I cared for this girl. More than I ever did for any woman. She had become someone I wanted to protect, to keep safe from harm. No matter how hard I thought about it, I couldn't figure out why I was obsessed with her, she didn't even like me...As I continued to drive towards the hospital, my eyes occasionally darted to the rearview mirror to steal glances at Rosalina's sleeping form.It was rare to see her like this, to witness a side of her that wasn't guarded or brimming with fiery independence. In this moment, she seemed like a different person, one who trusted me enough to let her guard down.Our relationship had alw
The Alliance Loved
ROSALINA'S POVAn overbearing ache pressed onto my whole body as I tried to get up from the bed, making me feel like I had just run a marathon in my sleep. I fell back, blinking my eyes open against the harsh sunlight streaming through the windows. Why did I forget to close the curtains last night?Rising from the bed, I pushed myself up slowly, deliberately, my muscles protesting with every move. The sunlight, unforgiving in its brightness, washed over me, and I squinted, questioning my nocturnal curtain negligence.As I swayed slightly on my feet, a sudden surge of discomfort drowned me, more forceful than the earlier ache. It felt like a relentless grip tightening around my stomach. Panic prickled at the edges of my mind as I stumbled toward the bathroom door, desperately seeking relief.Without warning, my stomach rebelled, expelling its contents into the toilet in a violent, uncontrollable discharge. I groaned and clutched my stomach, a sharp pain pinning me like cold needles. I
The Alliance Agreement
ROSALINA'S POVAfter what felt like an eternity, Leo finally ended the call. "What did she say to you?" I asked Leo, hoping for some insight into their conversation.Leo grinned. "She said that time is running out for her, and I should marry you and give her some great-grandchildren soon."I blinked in disbelief, unsure if I had heard him correctly. "She DID NOT say that."He was obviously pulling my leg. "It's what she said," Leo said with a shrug. "I'm not marrying you!" I exclaimed, incredulous at the idea."Why not?" I stared at him, dumbfounded. "Why not? Are you serious? We don't even like each other."Then, without warning, he closed the gap between us, his strong arms encircling my waist, pulling me close. "I like you just fine," he murmured, his lips now tracing a path down my neck. "You're the one who always runs away from me." I forgot how to breathe. "That's not true, I... I..." I stammered, my voice faltering as his lips brushed against the sensitive skin of my nec
