LANA'S POV “Did you mean what you said back there?” “Yes, Dax. I meant every word. I can’t be with you and your brother, that is just so absurd!” I tried to get him to get out of the room so that I’d be alone. “No, Lana. You know that’s not true! You can’t deny what’s between us…” He insisted. “I need you to leave, Dax.” “I’m not leaving…” He came towards me and kissed me to the point where I felt breathless and weak to push him away. I was already feeling wet and wanted him. I wanted him just this one time."Oh yes, Dax, yes..." I moaned against his ear as he ripped the dress off me. For a mere second, I remembered how the dress embraced my body and showed off all my best assets, but hey, I didn't get the time to mourn it before I realized that it was ripped and tossed onto the floor.When I was finally naked, he took off his clothes and picked me up to bed. He laid me down and positioned himself between me. I was moaning his name as he began working himself inside me. He was s
XAVIER'S POV"What kind of drink would you like, Sir?" The bartender asked. The sound of his voice sounded like a distant whisper as I tried to gather my thoughts at the bar table. I was carrying my head with my hands, lost in thought. Lana was the one possessing my mind, making me seem like a man who was at the brink of his insanity. I felt betrayed that I had to listen to her fucking my brother while I was right next to her room, after she rejected me again."Sir?" His voice echoed again. "Yes?" I rolled my eyes and lifted them up to look at the guy."What would you like to -?" "You have bourbon?" I asked.He nodded with so much enthusiasm. He was new and trying to impress his boss. If it were the old bartender, he would have let me wallow in my sorrows until I was ready to order my drink. "Here's your bourbon." He was so quick to come back with the drink. I was almost impressed."Thank you."One sip, two sips, and my mind wondered off again. Lana. Oh, Lana. I loved Lana. I would
LANA’S POV“Oh my goodness! Did you say anything to offend him?” Dax asked as we watched Xavier’s car screech over the corner.I lifted my eyes and shook my head. “No, I didn’t.”“You were together, Lana.”I remembered Xavier’s jacket over my shoulders and pulled it around me and headed towards Dax’s car. It was clear that tonight was not a night for me to spend the night alone. But I was grateful that they were both here to get me to safety, even though Xavier left angry. I couldn’t blame him though. It wasn’t my fault that I found myself in a contract marriage deal with his brother. I wouldn’t just have picked up everything where we left them and still respect my marriage contract with Dax.“Lana?” Dax called behind me.“What?” My voice snapped as I turned around to face him. Honestly, he was supposed to read between the lines that I was trying not to talk about the conversation that I had with Xavier. I hated the thought that I might have caused a drift between the two of them by m
DAX'S POVI had a smirk on my face as I walked out of the bedroom after seeing Lana when I ran into my brother downstairs. It was obvious that he was mad at me, too, and he had every right to be. We both agreed to be with Lana and do everything we can for her to agree to that. But I truly didn’t plan what happened at the hotel. Mo matter how much I try to not want to take Lana’s clothes off when I’m with her, I end up wanting to do it anyway. "Xavier." I stopped a little distance from him. "Yeah? You good?" He asked. "Sure, I'm good. I just wanted to say thank you for yesterday. The worst could have happened if you weren't there." I took a small step towards him. He was still my little brother. The fact that we were in love with the same woman was never going to change that. And I could not afford to be mad at each other because of her. Our relationship as brothers came first before her. And that, too, was never going to change. "It's alright." He was about to walk away when I su
LANA'S POV I was in awe of everything that Xavier did this morning. There was a full course breakfast on the living room table, with a variety of fruits and drinks. And a movie was paused on TV, "Notebook" on the screen. It was everything a girl could ever ask for from a man. My heart instantly became full and content. I was giggling to myself and could not believe that I was falling in love with Xavier all over again, and maybe a little more than before."This looks delicious, Xavier. And we are going to watch the Notebook, are you serious?" I squealed with joy as I took steps closer to him. "I knew you would like this," he sounded proud of himself, and he had to be. "I love this, Xavier." I wrapped my arms around him and rested my head on his chest. And I took in his smell and savoured it. His scent made me feel at peace. He smelled and felt like a man. His chest was hard and broad. I was obsessed.It took me a moment to realize how much I missed this with him. Even though I didn'
DAX'S POVI was driving in my car, my mind racing and contemplating what I was going to do with Sasha when I arrived at her place. She had no business to run her mouth to my father about Lana and Xavier after almost leaking their sex tape video. This time around, she needed to learn a lesson to not mess with my wife. When I got outside her driveway, I hopped out of my car and rushed to her front door. I banged and banged but there was no answer. Just when I was about to kick the door down, the door opened. An elderly woman stood at the front door. She had to be her mother or some elderly family member of hers, but I didn't care. "Where is Sasha?" I snapped. "I don't know who that is. Who are you?" The lady answered in confusion. If I remembered correctly, Sasha's mother was not in town and not this old. Her grandmother died, and she had no family member who was as old as her. Unless this was one of her silly games. She had to know better than to play games with me when I was lookin
XAVIER'S POV"Father, why are you making me and Lana going to the same college such a big deal?" I disrupted my father. "I don't want scandal attached to this family name about brothers being with the same girl!" He snapped. "And I will not have you both kill each other for her!" He added. “And who said that we are seeing the same girl?” “Are you denying it? Are you saying that it’s not true that you once dated Lana?” He still insisted. “Who told you that Lana and I dated in college?” It was impossible that anyone could have known about our affair in college. “People talk,” he answered."You need to leave Father if you're going to make such claims on my face without expecting me to snap back at you." I calmly responded to him. "Dax is your brother. You need to think about that before thinking that you can take Lana back from him." He pointed a finger at me.I remembered that Lana didn't want people to know about our triad relationship yet, it meant so much to her that we weren't
LANA'S POV"Your father seemed terribly angry, Xavier. What do you think he is going to do about this now that we are all invited for dinner?" I asked, getting dressed. My heart was pounding fast against my chest. I felt nervous and hated the thought of being on Mr. Salvatore's bad books. If I could tell him, I could tell him that I meant well for his sons. I was content with two of them in my life and never felt happier than I had ever been since I had the opportunity to live under the same roof with them. "Don't worry, he is not angry with you. You are his daughter-in-law. The only person he is mad at is me." Xavier's voice sounded sad. It was unfair that his father could not even hide the fact that he no longer wanted him in his house. He didn't do anything to him except to follow his dream as a doctor and refuse to follow in his business footsteps. As the only parent alive, he was supposed to support both of his sons and be there for them, regardless of the fact that he could no
