"I'm so sorry, sir, I forgot to lock the door. I didn't mean for..." "Shhhh." He silenced me, placing a finger on my lips. He smelled like rich, masculine cologne and alcohol. I looked up at him; he was staring at me with something swirling in his eyes. Something I couldn't explain. He slowly leaned down and pressed a kiss on my shoulder. My breath hitched in my throat. I held my towel tight against me with my left hand and pushed him back with my right hand, taking a step back myself. "I'm sorry, sir, this isn't right," I told him respectfully. His eyes darkened as he grabbed my forearm tightly, making me look at his furious eyes. "I am Alessandro Rossi, and no one tells me what is right and what is not."

"Relax, Ruby. No one is this tense around their fiancé." I tried to do as he said and relax so I leaned further into him and pressed my back to his front which seemed to ignite a different reaction from him. "Not that kind of relaxing. You're only going to get me hard." He hissed in my ear. I smiled and decided to be naughty and play dumb. He held my arm tightly, "Ruby, stop." He warned. "I'm not doing anything, Oliver. I'm merely acting my role. Perfectly." I said innocently. "You really want to play this game?" He replied. "We're executing our role flawlessly. People are watching." I told him with a smile. "Then they'd better gobble this one up." In one swift move, he spun me around and smashed his lips to mine in the presence of everyone present at the party.

« Tu n’as aucune idée de ce que tu m’as fait. Je n’ai cessé de repasser en boucle chaque son que tu as émis, chaque façon dont tu t’es laissée aller pour moi. » Sa poigne se resserra. « Je ne vais pas laisser passer ça. Je ne vais pas te laisser partir. J’emmerde l’amitié. Je te veux.» Je laissai échapper un petit halètement. Son pouce effleura ma lèvre inférieure. « Je ne veux pas seulement te baiser… je veux te garder.

«Não fazes ideia do que me fizeste. Tenho estado a reviver cada som que emitiste, cada forma como te entregaste a mim.» O seu aperto intensificou-se. «Não vou deixar isso escapar. Não te vou deixar ir. Que se lixe a amizade. Quero-te.» Soltei um pequeno suspiro. O polegar dele esfregou-se no meu lábio inferior. «Não quero apenas foder contigo — quero ficar contigo. És o meu pecado favorito, e vou cometê-lo vezes sem conta até perceberes que és minha.» Os lábios dele tremeram ligeiramente. «Sempre foste minha, Savannah.» ****** A irmã dela vai casar com o ex-namorado dela.

"I'm the leader of the Italian mafia. Now, do you understand?" I replied casually. Her beautiful face pales as she falls back on her *ss, her eyes wider than ever. She looked positively frightened.

«Non hai idea di cosa mi hai fatto. Ho ripensato a ogni suono che hai emesso, a ogni modo in cui ti sei lasciata andare per me.» La sua presa si fece più salda. «Non ho intenzione di lasciar perdere. Non ho intenzione di lasciarti andare. Fanculo l’amicizia. Ti voglio.» Emisi un piccolo sussulto. Il suo pollice mi sfiorò il labbro inferiore. «Non voglio solo scoparti… voglio tenerti con me.

"You have no idea what you've done to me. I've been replaying every sound you made, every way you came apart for me." His grip tightened. "I'm not letting that go. I'm not letting you go. F*ck the friendship. I want you." I let out a little gasp. His thumb rubbed across my lower lip. "I don't just want to f**k you—I want to keep you.

«No tienes ni idea de lo que me has hecho. He estado reviviendo cada sonido que hiciste, cada vez que te derretiste para mí». Apretó más fuerte. «No voy a dejar que eso se me escape. No voy a dejarte ir. Al c*r*j* con la amistad. Te quiero a ti». Solté un pequeño grito ahogado. Su pulgar me acarició el labio inferior. «No solo quiero follarte, quiero quedarme contigo.

„Du hast ja keine Ahnung, was du mir angetan hast. Ich habe jedes Geräusch, das du gemacht hast, immer wieder im Kopf abgespielt, jede Art, wie du für mich den Verstand verloren hast.“ Sein Griff wurde fester. „Das lasse ich nicht los. Ich lasse dich nicht los. Scheiß auf die Freundschaft. Ich will dich.“ Ich stieß einen leisen Schrei aus. Sein Daumen strich über meine Unterlippe. „Ich will dich nicht nur ficken – ich will dich für mich behalten. Du bist meine liebste Sünde, und ich werde sie immer wieder begehen, bis du verstehst, dass du mir gehörst.“ Seine Lippen zuckten leicht. „Du hast schon immer mir gehört, Savannah.“ ****** Ihre Schwester heiratet ihren Ex.
