RAINI LAVERNE It had only been a few hours since our arrival at the country home off the west coast but I already felt more relaxed than I had been in a long time. I couldn’t be sure what it was exactly that made the feelings of stress and pressure to leave but one thing I was sure of was the atmosphere and how much being in one place together with my husband felt right.There were no people to upset me, different sorts of noises, or the other things that came with being at the pack house. Instead, the sounds of pans and pots that usually came from the kitchen were replaced with birds chirping, and the sound of the conversations around me was now replaced with the soft hum of the breeze as it ruffled through the trees around. “That smile is infectious. Penny for your thoughts?” Xavier asked and I turned to look in his direction, throwing a small smile his way.He was currently relaxed on the bed, propped up on a ridiculous amount of soft pillows and he too looked to be relaxed alt
RIVER LAVERNEI sat on my bed staring blankly at the wall, scrolling through my phone, wondering why Damon hadn't called me for weeks. We had been seeing each other for months, and I thought things were going great between us.I decided to message him to ask if we could meet up. He replied almost immediately and agreed to meet me at our usual spot. I got dressed and headed out to see him, my heart pounding with excitement.As soon as I saw him, I knew something was wrong. He was distant and cold, and didn't seem interested in anything I had to say. I tried to make small talk, but he kept looking at his phone, ignoring me.Finally, I asked him what was going on. He looked up at me with a guilty expression on his face and said, "River, I need to tell you something. I'm married."My heart sank, and I felt like someone had punched me in the gut. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. "What do you mean you're married?" I asked, my voice shaking."I saw you and I liked you, River," he said,
Flashback ;ZAVIER CROSSCaleb entered my office with a grin on his face. "Good morning, boss. How was your night?""It was fine, Caleb. What's up?" I replied, not in the mood for small talk."Everything is going as planned. I've been keeping an eye on River, and she seems to be getting interested in me," he said with a smirk.I raised my eyebrow. "Good to know, but don't forget the reason why you're there. We need to keep her safe. You shouldn't fall in love with her, Caleb."He chuckled. "Don't worry, boss. I know what I'm doing. I'm just playing my part."I sighed. "Just be careful. Remember, we're not just protecting Raini; we're protecting her sister as well. If anything happens to her, Raini will be devastated.""I understand, Zavier," Caleb replied, nodding his head. "I'll make sure nothing happens to either of them.""Good. And one more thing, Caleb. Don't let River know that you work for me. We don't want her to be suspicious.""Got it, boss. I'll stay clear of Raini's path a
RIVER LAVERNE His eyes were magnificent, when I propose to go to a club I didn’t know I would find myself in his arms, this took a quick turn instantly.I stared deeply into this stranger's eyes, I barely knew anything about him but I felt like I had known him all my life, once more and the rational part of my mind seemed to desert me. Pulling his head closely I slammed my lips onto his, moaning at the softness of them, the feeling of their lips molding together tingled through my entire body. The sound of the wine glass hitting the concrete and shattering is completely irrelevant to them both.The kiss started off soft and unsure like they were trying to test the waters, but in no time it was hard and bruising, the stranger licked his way into my mouth, his tongue dancing with me as I took everything that he gave. He dominated the kiss so well and I let out another little moan, arching into him, my toes curling as I felt tingles shoot through mine. my body felt hot and I ached to
RIVER LAVERNEI was trying to leave the club discreetly, but then I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned around to see Caleb looking at me with those intense eyes. "Hey, where are you going?" he asked."I'm leaving," I replied, trying to hide my embarrassment.Caleb stepped closer, blocking my way. "Can we talk for a minute?"I sighed and nodded, knowing that there was no way I could escape him. We walked outside to the cool night air, and Caleb put his hands on my shoulders."Look, I know what just happened between us was unexpected, but I don't regret it," he said, looking at me intensely. "I think there's something between us, River. Something real."I shook my head, trying to clear my mind. "You don't understand, Caleb. I'm not over my ex-boyfriend. I shouldn't have even been here tonight."Caleb's expression softened, and he took a step back. "I'm sorry, I didn't know. But please, let me make it up to you. Let me take you out on a date. Just one date, and if you're still not inte
Raini LaverneThe time with Zavier in this mansion far away from the distraction of the outside world had been magical. I had always had an unusual flare for people who abandon civilization and decides to leave In the woods with polar bears and crazy wide animals.But the time I have spent with Zavier has been nothing short of magical.But sometimes I worry, I am getting way ahead of myself. Sometimes I worry, he doesn't even see me that way, yes we had shared intimate moments and yes those moments had brought us closer but, he had not done anything.I am a fucking overthinker, when we were headed down here I thought I would be faced with the problem of trying resist him and asking him to take things slow.Don't fucking judge me, who else doesn't thonks the reason a guy will drag you out of town to the middle of fucking no where if not to fuck you.I don't want to fuck him though, I truly don't. I just want him to make advances at me so I can turn him down and ask him to wait that we
Zavier Cross Fuck!Fuck!!Fuck!!!I can't believe I just did that. I almost kissed her. I can't help but feel this intense desire for her, but I know I need to hold back. She deserves more than a fling, more than just a physical attraction. I want something real with her, something meaningful. I need to control myself and not let my desires get the best of me.But damn, she's so gorgeous. Every time she's around me, it takes everything in me to resist her. Her curves, her eyes, her lips, they all call out to me, begging me to touch her. But I know I can't give in, not yet.I need to be patient, take my time and let our connection grow. She's worth it, and I know that deep down she feels the same. I can see the way she looks at me, the way her body reacts when I'm near her. But I need to be strong and resist, for both of our sakes.I just hope she understands why I'm holding back. I don't want to hurt her or lead her on, I want to give her everything she deserves. And if that means wai
RAINI LAVERNE The trip with Zavier was cut short for whatsoever reason but, I loved every moment of it, I loved that we ended the trip on a good note and I am so grateful of all the moment I spent with Zavier. I was still a bit sexually frustrated, as my body ached for him, it yearned for his touch, but at this point, I am done even trying. I would have wanted him to make advance on me so I could turn him down. Show him how it feels, I know I will still get fucI burst into Karla's room, practically bouncing with excitement. "Karla, you won't believe it! Zavier and I just got back from the most amazing trip!" I exclaimed.Karla grinned at me. "Tell me all about it, Raini.""Well, first off, we went ziplining through the jungle canopy! It was incredible! I felt like a superhero soaring through the air."Karla laughed. "That sounds amazing! Did you scream?"I rolled my eyes. "Of course I did! But Zavier was so calm and collected, like he was born to fly through the air."Karla nodded
