Lahat ng Kabanata ng Virg*n's Desire : Kabanata 11 - Kabanata 20

Aurelia’s grip on the sheets tightened. The soft fabric gathered beneath her fingers as she drew in a slow, uneven breath. Somewhere in the distance, the faint hum of the city echoed through the walls, but inside the mansion, everything was still — quiet enough to hear the sound of her own heartbeat.She told herself to stay calm, to let the tension ebb away. She didn’t want to open her eyes and meet Lucian’s gaze — not right now. Somehow, she feared he would see in her eyes that she was about to cum to his massage.Then, suddenly, her phone rang.The sound sliced through the stillness like a bell in a church. Aurelia startled, her eyes snapping open as she quickly sat up. Her legs slipped out of Lucian’s grasp, and she blinked, disoriented by the interruption.Lucian’s head turned toward the source of the sound — her phone, glowing faintly on the nightstand. For a fleeting second, an emotion she couldn’t name crossed his face. It was gone almost as soon as it appeared, replaced by hi

Lucian stepped on the accelerator, his eyes sharp and filled with fury. Sweat gathered on his forehead as he clenched the steering wheel tightly. He had tried calling Aurelia several times, but she wasn’t answering. Panic coursed through him — he couldn’t bear the thought of losing her.How was he supposed to live with the guilt of letting her face danger alone? How would he tell Marcus what had happened if he failed to protect her?His eyes flicked briefly to the gun on the passenger seat. The bullets inside had been meant for someone else — but not anymore.Now, they were for whoever had dared to touch Aurelia Russo.Tracking the location from her phone, Lucian Romano slammed his car to a stop and stepped out, gun in hand.Then he heard it.“Help me!”Her voice. Trembling, terrified, desperate.He ran toward the sound, rage burning through his veins. In the dim light, he saw Aurelia on the ground beneath a man. Her lacy bra was torn, her white blouse discarded beside her. The sight

Aurelia leaned in even closer, wanting to capture Lucian's lips with her lips. Each brush of their lips against each other made her shiver and she could not deny the wetness that had formed in her underwear.“I should not be doing this,” Lucian whispered, his lips still brushing hers.Instinctively, Aurelia's grip around him got tighter as if not wanting to let him go. Aurelia knew this was her body taking over and not her heart. Her heart wanted Lucian to leave the room right away but her body wanted him to stay and do things to her.Hesitation and want filled the air. The room was silent save for their breathing.She could feel his arousal pressing against her stomach and the feel made her recall her drunk night when he had rubbed himself against her intimate area.A soft moan escaped her lips, recollecting that memory, but that was when Lucian chose to pull away from her completely.“You were talking too much and I had to shut you up,” Lucian rasped, and Aurelia just remained silen

Aurelia was in the living room, cuddling a pillow and watching a movie. The doctor had come to check on her earlier, and she had taken the medication he prescribed.She was bored at home but too scared to go out. After what had happened, she knew Lucian wouldn’t allow her to leave the house anyway—and honestly, she didn’t want to. The memory of last night made her shiver.Yawning softly, Aurelia lay down on the couch, still hugging her pillow. A few minutes later, her phone buzzed with a message.The cracked screen lit up.It was from Lucian.Aurelia frowned a little before opening it.> “I’m almost home. Go get dressed. We’re going out together.”She hissed under her breath and dropped the phone back on the couch. The last thing she wanted was to go anywhere—especially with him.Turning off the television, Aurelia closed her eyes, deciding to ignore the message.About fifteen minutes later, Lucian walked into the living room. His coat was off, revealing a crisp white shirt that clung

Heavy breathing filled Aurelia’s room. The air was thick with unspoken tension — neither she nor Lucian said a word.Her heartbeat pounded against her chest, and her body trembled slightly, still caught between confusion and the storm of emotions that had just passed. The silence between them was almost deafening, filled with feelings neither dared to voice.Lucian’s chest rose and fell heavily. His jaw clenched, his eyes shut for a brief moment as he tried to steady himself. He could still feel the warmth of her body, the nearness that had almost driven him past his limits.He had to leave — now — before he lost control completely.Lucian gently withdrew his hand from her, his movements slow and careful, as though afraid to break the fragile air between them. He stood up, every muscle in his body tense with restraint.Aurelia’s eyes were hazy, unfocused, her breathing uneven. Her flushed cheeks and parted lips told him enough — she was overwhelmed, too. He wondered if she regretted l
