LORETTA

“I don't understand” my voice came out in a whisper. “What do you mean Heath is back for me?”

Father leaned back in his chair, looking genuinely pleased with himself in a way that made me both anxious and exasperated

“Did you really think I was going to leave you all alone to Fitzpatrick without any backup?” He asked with pursed lips. “I know Elion has many tricks up his sleeve. What did he do to make you fall for him, hmm? Was he nice to you, buy you flowers or was it something more?

    LORETTA “Shit” Elion’s reaction was instant.Immediately, the light beamed in on us, and he pulled me tighter against his chest, one large hand flying up to shield my face from the light, pressing it into the crook of his neck. He pressed me against the wall too, his broad body completely shielding mine as he yanked the hem of my soaked dress down over my thighs.My heart hammered without restraint, my adrenaline was high, Elion's breath was hot and uneven against my ear. I tried to pull back but he held me firmer, protecting me. “Stay still,” he whispered, voice low and rough. “Don’t make a sound.”I could hear the sound of the car drive farther down the street, becoming more distant, my eyes squeezed shut as my body trembled around him. The risk that we could be caught in a compromising position somehow made everything more intense. “Do you think whoever was driving that car saw us?” I asked quietly, my voice almost muffled I couldn't see his face, but I could tell his jaw was

    LORETTA It wasn't a sniffIt was more. Elion brought my ruined panties to his nose and drew in a long, unhurried breath, like a man inhaling the scent of something sacred. “What are you doing?” It was a silly question to ask, being that I could see what exactly he was doing but I was running low on coherent thought and coherent sentencesHis eyes fluttered half-closed. “Memorizing you, baby” The deep growl of his voice and the raw hunger in his face made my core clench hardA small whimper escaped me. Greedily, I grounded my body against him, asking... begging “Fuck, Rea,” he hissed out, voice as rough as gravel. “You smell so much better than I imagined. I need more, fuck I need more of you”Heat flooded my cheeks, but I didn’t look away. I couldn’t. Elion had imagined this before? OhOhhhWith his dark hungry eyes fixed on mine, he tucked the torn lace into the back pocket of his suit trousers, His free hand slid up my thigh, pushing the soaked fabric of my dress higher until co

    LORETTA The first taste of Elion's mouth was devastating in every sense of the wordThe second made me forget why I was even angry to begin with, and by the third....I didn't know my own nameThe kiss wasn't gentle, it wasn't even fair, not with the knowing way his lips and tongue captured mine prisoner, taking absolute control over meThe rain continued to fall around us, heavier now. The sky was dark, the city kept moving, but when Elion kissed me, nothing else excited me except his mouth on mineHe tasted of everything I've ever yearned for, of passion, and ecstacy and bliss and recklessness and so much more than I could fully process His mouth was hard against mine, his hands framing my jaw, a downpour of rain running between us, I raised a hand to clutch his shirt, to push him away but instead, I realized that I was only pulling him closer to my body so that my tender breasts flattened against his hard chestAnd so help me God, I could not stop. If a gun was pointed to my head

    LORETTA He crossed the distance between us with long, furious strides that made the world narrow down to himThe traffic disappeared, the people on the sidewalk disappeared, even the ache in my heart disappeared Even though Elion was striding towards me with a dead look in his eyes, the first thing I felt — actually felt was relief He came.For one reckless, almost humiliating second of it all, I wanted to break into a run and wrap my hands around him, to let his warm hands and scent comfort me“Elion” my breath caught when he reached me and grabbed me by the shoulder, his large hands closing around my body hard but not hard enough to hurtI could see the dark energy rolling over him in waves, it should have scared me and it did, but...those coal dark eyes swept over me frantically, going over my face, my neck, my arms, down and back up againIt took me a second to understand what Elion was doing, and when I did realize that he was checking to see if I was okay, my heart melted in

    LORRETA The taxi lurched forward, pulling into the road before I could hurl out a very colourful insult towards HeathHe leaned back against the seat, his notes crinkling as he glanced around the taxi. “You could have ...”“Did you seriously just pull the 'I'm the man, so I decide' card?” My voice came out sharper than I have ever used with him, I stared at this stranger who was seated beside me with new eyesHeath sighed softly, “Look, I didn't mean to...”“How dare you come at me with that sexist crap?" I snapped, not caring about what else he wanted, and planned on saying I was done hearing him out. I was D O N E. Genuine remorse crossed over his face, he reached a hand to touch me but I swatted it so fast and hard that Heath flinched, shifting backwards and away from me. “Lo, what's wrong with you?”Shock and agitation rippled through me “What's wrong with me? You dare ask me that question after this foolishness you just pulled?” My hands shook, not from fear this time but fr

    LORETTA FIVE MINUTES EARLIER Heath's hand was extended out, hovering between us in a pregnant silence, hope lit up in his eyes “Come with me” he said again, as if he repeated it enough times, I might agree to I looked at his hand, then at his face, the boyish face I once admired years ago, and my heart softened for him “Heath…” I started gently, choosing my words with care. “I appreciate that you're looking out for me. I really do.” His eyes brightened even more, a slow smile spreading across his face. “So you'll come with me then.” It wasn't a question. “There's this new Michelin-star restaurant close to my place. We could check it out if you're up for a date.” His gaze drifted toward Rosa's, his nose wrinkling in disapproval. “It's a lot better than... whatever this is.” A sad smile settled on my lips. In some ways, Heath wasn't a bad person. He could be thoughtful, caring, and even incredibly kind to the people he considers his friends, but his biggest flaw had alw

    LORETTA I didn't know what I was expecting when I asked Elion that question Honestly, I wasn't even thinking. I just needed a way for him to agree to having dinner with me so that we could get closer and hopefully I would find out his ‘Grand plans’But when he pinned me against the wall and growl
