The club was too loud. The thumping music made it quite difficult to do anything but move your body and go crazy. On a regular day, this would not be Ava's kind of scene. But this wasn't a regular day. It was a horrifying one. She had seen Sebastian kiss another woman; a woman she had come to despise; and the scene seemed stuck in her head. She was unable to forget it. It replayed over and over like a movie.She was dressed in a spaghetti strapped black dress that, according to her sister, clung to her curves and made her look like a goddess. Ava didn't believe that one bit. If she looked like a goddess, why would Sebastian kiss another woman? He would have eyes for her only. He would be hers only. Her eyes flitted around, trying to make sense of what exactly was going on in the club. She had been to a club perhaps only five times in her entire life. She just couldn't see the appeal. But now she did. The noise, the dancing, sweaty bodies gyrating against each other, these were peop
"Where is she?" Sebastian asked through the earbuds as he drove home. He had asked one of his security men to locate Ava. If she were home, he wouldn't have gone to such lengths. But she wasn't home. He had arrived at the penthouse to see it was as empty as ever and not a soul was in there. And it terrified the shit out of him. What if she had left him for good? He knew she had feelings for him, hell they'd had an issue over it because he hadn't wanted to acknowledge her feelings for him. If she interpreted what she had seen on his office wrongly then he was fucking doomed. He didn't want to lose her. Yes he was mad at her. Yes he was pissed and had allowed distance to grow between them. It was all his fault. What if she tried to break off the contract? What if.... No! His mind fought vehemently. She could not break it. It was a damned contract and until a year was up, she was his. His and nobody else's. "She's at a club sir," the security man said on the other line and Sebasti
"Your woman?" Jake asked, brows furrowed in confusion. His eyes flitted from Sebastian's intimidating face to Ava's surprised one. "What's going on Ava?" "I'm trying to figure that out as well," Ava mumbled, staring at Sebastian in surprise. "What are you doing here?" "What am I doing here?" She repeated not processing the question on time. She blinked rapidly, recalled what she was doing and why and the surprise expression in her face morphed into anger. "What are you doing here?" She tried to yank her hand away from his but Sebastian would rather get mauled by a bear than let her go. "I came to get you. What were you thinking coming to a fucking night club?!" She laughed. It was one heavily laced with sarcasm. "Oh I don't know, maybe because I can't get the image of my fiance kissing his ex-girlfriend.""She kissed me!" He spoke without thinking and regretted it immediately. "Yeah sure, that makes me feel so much better," she replied dryly and yanked her hands away with a forc
Sebastian stopped the car abruptly, dragging the vehicle to the road side. Her words rang in his head as he turned to face her in the vehicle. "You love me?" Yes he was stunned. She must have said it before. He had known she felt strongly for him. He just hadn't recognized or realized that it was love. Even now as he stared at her heaving chest, he couldn't believe what he had just heard. Ava folded her arms and pursed her lips feeling quite silly for saying all her feelings in one breath. She had been agitated and had felt infuriated because he insulted her and it had simply just come out. Overall she felt lighter. Getting it off her chest seemed to help. What made her uncomfortable was the look on his face. As if she had said something outrageous. "It doesn't matter," she grumbled, looking somewhere else. Anywhere but his face. Sebastian sighed deeply and turned to face the front. "I... I'm sorry," he muttered. "I don't need your apologies!" She snapped. "I don't need anything
Desire. He made him know Desire. He had heard that desire was intoxicating. It messed with the head and made a man tremble. Sebastian watched his hands, hell, his whole body tremble as he stared at her supple body. With the dress out of the way, her breasts exposed, supple pink nipples winking at him, begging for his attention. "Ava," he breathed, his body shuddering. "Ava, lay down. Fuck I have missed you so much," Her blue eyes heavy lidded with passion, she obeyed his bidding and laid on her bed, her hair splaying all over the white sheets. "Come here," She whispered. She didn't have to tell him twice. He yanked at his shirt, tossed it aside and lowered his body to hers, capturing her lips in a kiss at first. She was addicting. Innocent, yet so fucking addicting. Her body's scent tickled his nose and made his pants tighter at the thought of him buried in her arms. His lips left her lips, traveling down the length of her neck. Ava moaned at his open mouthed kisses, licking a
"Get back here right now!" Sebastian thundered through the house, shaking it by its foundations. He was a sight to see. A half naked hulking male dressed in nothing but black pants and flour all over his face. He snorted and sniffed most likely trying to get some flour out of his nose and glared at a figure before him. The figure was a giggling Ava dressed in his shirt. It looked so fucking good on her. She had her hands over mouth, stained with flour as she laughed her ass off at Sebastian. Sebastian's green eyes narrowed in what seemed to be anger, but when he spoke, his voice showed that he was anything but angry. "Come here you naughty little minx!" He boomed. "No!" Ava taunted, taking steps back from him. "Ava," he growled and she giggled again. Obviously enjoying their game of chase. Sebastian adored the look of glee on her face and loved the fact that he was the one who made her feel that way. He felt mildly silly. Standing in his living room, playing tag with his fake
Ava walked into the building she lived in with a spring to her step that the workers had not seen in quite a while. To the receptionist by the desk, ever since the lady had arrived from her vacation, she had looked pretty dreary. But now, she looked like a different person. Her lips had a sated satisfied smile on her face and she looked like she could break out dancing any minute. Ava did dance, but only in the privates of her elevator. She felt like some damned superstar and she loved it. Her mind and heart would always replay Sebastian's words in the car when he had dropped her off. "I have eyes only for you Ava," he had said, taking her hand in his. "If I wanted to get back with Natasha, then there would be no need for us to continue our relationship. And while I didn't expect that I would... Feel this way about you, I would never try to hurt you willingly Ava." "Oh my gosh," she squealed, covering her face shyly. Oh she loved him. She did. And she would patiently wait until he
“So what’s this sensation I’m getting from the Legendary playboy, Damian?” Sebastian asked as soon as they sat down after making their way into one of their favorite pubs in the city just across the building from where they worked.“Come on, man.” Damian groaned. “You couldn’t even wait for us to get settled down or to place our orders yet?”“You dragged me out from the mountain of paperwork I have lying on my desk, it’s only proper to barrage you with questions as I deem fit.” “Admit it, Sebastian. You need this drink as much as I do. Don’t act all righteous like you didn’t jump out of a meeting in the middle of yesterday to get into a squabble with Ava at a nightclub.” “You things are different when it comes to Ava.” Sebastian shrugged, signaling the waitress over. “It’s no secret that I’m a different person whenever she’s around me.” Damian drummed his fingers on the table. “I’m guessing you guys made up last night? I lost count of the number of times I called you but you never
