All Chapters of Her Carnal Desires: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

He turned and cocked a brow at me."Seriously? This is ridiculous." He pointed at the tub. "Alright, let's get you soaking." He leaned forward and turned on the tap, making sure it was the right temp before he plugged it. After pouring some salt into the tub, he turned to me. "Alright, lift your arms."When he grabbed the bottom of my shirt, I smacked his hands away and stepped back as my cheeks flushed. I didn't want him to see me."Melissa, come on. I've seen your body a million times. Let me help you. Sore ribs can be a real bitch when you're trying to get undressed."I shook my head. "I don't want you to see me," I whispered."Well too bad because I'm going to see you either way. While you're taking a bath, I'm jumping in that sweet ass shower next to you."My eyes moved to the glass separating the tub and the shower. The only thing separating them."You can't wait until I'm done?"He shook his head. "No, because when we're both done, we're going downstairs to kick those guys out,

MELISSA'S POV "Well, I don't know about you guys, but I'm exhausted." Johnny stood up and stretched his arms above his head, staring down at all of us lounging in front of the TV. None of us were actually watching anything, but it was nice having background noise."The extra bedroom is all I have, so you two will have to flip for it." I sat forward as Alexander placed his hand on my back. The warmth of his hand made me feel safe.Damien glared at us out the corner of his eyes. "Where is he sleeping?""Where do you think?" Alexander laughed.The color drained from Damien's face as anger set in his eyes. "I'll take the couch." He tensed his jaw and added, "In case Melissa needs me."I closed my eyes and let out a breath. I just wanted these two to stop this pissing contest already so we could move on toward what was far more important: finding the contract and finding Milo.Alexander, of course, couldn't let it go as he leaned forward. "She won't need you because she'll be underneath m

ALEXANDER'S POV I woke to an empty bed again and nearly panicked as I sat up in a hurry and jumped out of bed. I threw my clothes on as quickly as I could from the day before. I didn't have time to change into fresh clothes because I was in a hurry to find Melissa. All I could think about was that damn empty closet and how I felt that day and the days that followed. I never wanted to feel that pain ever again.And just when I ripped open the door, I heard Melissa's laugh echo up the stairs and into my ears. I let out a sigh of relief as I pushed into the hallway and went downstairs. I heard her, but I still needed to see her.She was in the kitchen, flipping pancakes with Damien and Johnny sat at the counter drinking coffee and still looking through boxes from the office.I cleared my throat as Evie spun, smiling warmly at me."Good morning. Coffee?"I shook my head. I didn't want coffee. I wanted her.I rounded the island and placed my hands on her hips, forcing her to look at me. S

MELISSA'S POV "Alexander," I breathed, trying to think of what to tell him. How did I tell him these were both a mistake? That I was forced?As I looked down at the photos, I noticed the one of Milo and me was taken when we first got together, back when I thought he was a normal human being. So of course, I looked like I was enjoying myself, and I had been actually. The photo of Damien and me looked to be taken right before Milo revealed himself; a moment I knew I enjoyed. Two photos that showed me with two other men and clearly not thinking about Alexander."Explain," he snapped, stepping back to run a hand through his hair, "I feel like you've lied to me. Deceived me!" He shouted, making me jump. "These photos here show me that you clearly enjoyed being with them. Are you really as trapped as you're saying, Melissa? Or is this some sick way of crying on my shoulder and making me feel sorry for you because they don't want you anymore?"I felt like he slapped me across the face. How

"She's been through a lot, sir.""She's always been through a lot. She's the daughter of a biker for fuck's sake. Has she stopped crying yet?"I had to laugh at that one. As much as Melissa tried to hide her emotions, she really sucked at it and everyone knew how emotional she really was, especially me."She..." I wasn't sure how to answer that, "sure, boss. I'll keep you posted. I have another phone call to make."Axel groaned, "It better not be to who I think it's to.""Yeah, it's her." I swallowed."Don't fuck this up, Alexander. We're too close to cracking this shit wide open."I groaned at Axel's words. I wasn't sure what was worse; that Melissa kicked me out of her condo because I was with Mandi or the fact that my relationship with Mandi was a giant lie and a cover. I wasn't into Mandi at all. I was simply playing her to get intel on her brother and the club from the northern chapter. Apparently, Jimmy had further dealings and I was sent to sweep her off her feet and hope she t
