XANDERHow long would it take for me to bleed out and die if I stabbed myself in the eye? I wondered. For the next couple of minutes that followed, I felt like I was constantly thinking of all the fastest ways to end my life so I didn’t have to tolerate this mind numbingly boring conversation between my father and his unwanted guests. The worst part of it all was that I couldn’t simply zone out of the conversation because I was required to be present enough to answer whatever questions were thrown my way. It was either I engaged in the conversation as little as I could or I risked incurring my father’s wrath once they left the dinner table. And trust me, a boring conversation that made me want to take my life was much better than being on the receiving end of my supposedly calm father’s wrath. “You’re a business major, right? I’ve heard wonderful things about the business program in Enigma college, it’s by far the best in the country,” Luna Mendel was speaking to me and I was tryi

APRILMother’s preferred French brand of white wine finally caught my eye. However, I didn’t even get to lift it from its spot on the shelf before I startled out of my mind from the sound of the door shutting and being bolted. When I turned around and saw Xander with a smirk that made it obvious he was up to no good, I rolled my eyes in annoyance. He always picked the worst times to initiate sex. There’s never been a time when he cornered me that he didn’t want sex. I could see it written all over him as those dangerously stunning blue eyes worked over my body lustfully. I didn’t need a soothsayer to tell me that he was undressing me in that twisted head of his. “What the hell are you doing here?” I hissed at him, determined to make sure he didn’t get his way this time around. “Showing you what happens to errant stepsisters,” he answered in a punishing and cut edge tone but his gaze was elsewhere, drooling for what was beneath my shirt. His eyes snapped from my breasts to my ey

APRILBlinded by anger, I hadn’t thought before slapping him right across the face. His initial reaction was shock, his lips parted slightly and his eyes bulged out as he realized what I’d done, but I was too pissed at how foolishly he’d just behaved to feel any sort of regret for slapping him.Seconds later, the shock faded into thin air and his eyes turned into angry slits. The next thing I knew, he was grabbing my neck and choking me against the wall while my feet were slightly above the floor. He wasn’t wrapping his eyes tightly enough around my neck to hurt me, he was just making a clear distinction about who was the more powerful being between us in case I’d forgotten. “Despite that foolish decision you just made, I’m willing to be a gentleman for a night,” he smiled at me devilishly, still looking at my body like he was starving even though he’d devoured me whole mere minutes ago. “I won’t take out that lousy slap on you tonight,” he whispered lowly, still smiling and manag

ACEPost cum clarity hit me so hard that I nearly dropped to my knees in sheer agony. The evidence of what I’d just done was spilled all over the bathroom floor, shower walls, my thighs and my palm. I felt an odd wave of anger grip me as I looked down at it, infuriated that thinking of April had made me do something I’d sworn to never do again.Before now, the only other girl whose body and memories I’d masturbated to was the girl I foolishly gave my heart to. And what happened afterwards? She broke it into a million unfixable pieces, ruining me for every other woman I experienced after her. I couldn’t let that be the case with April. I couldn’t let myself fall for another headstrong know-it-all that would end up wringing my heart until it was void of any emotion. Another heartbreak would fucking kill me. And the gods forbid that the almighty Ace dies at the mercy of a woman. I grabbed the detachable shower hose and began to wash away the evidence of my foolishness. I’d lost mysel

APRIL The air around me was different whenever he was near. Instead of being simply cool, the air always felt like it was drowned in affection and adoration because his hands never left my body. His scent was addictive and filling, warming every inch of my body and wrapping itself around me in a way that made me feel nothing but absolute bliss. The way his hands always wandered to my thighs, arms, neck, back, face…. Literally anywhere he could manage to trail his fingers while we spoke, I loved every second of it. At some point, it seemed like he didn’t even notice how much he always needed to be touching me, but I absolutely adored it. It felt amazing to be craved as constantly as he craved me. “Here it comes, finally,” Nick nudged me in the side and pointed in the sky, but I didn’t look at it immediately, I was too drawn in by how beautifully his gorgeous face glowed under the moonlight as he smiled. For a while, I just enjoyed watching him stare at the clouds above us and it
