LEANDRA
Thereâs an unsettling ache in my chest. I donât like it. I donât like that itâs because of him. Something shifted last night; I felt it in my bones, in my belly after he left. Iâm a virgin, but itâs not like Iâve never fantasized before, giving myself an orgasm while thinking about sex and what it would feel like.
Yes, watching Isaia fuck turned me on, and I was already halfway to the edge when Alexius walked in. But it was different with himâsort of like his presence heightened and intensified every fucking thing. Iâm not blind. Iâm not made of stone. Alexius oozes primal attraction. All of them do. Itâs like God made a mold from sex and sin and created every goddamn Del Rossa sibling from it. Yet thereâs something different with Alexius. Not because of him being the heir to this empire and a presence not a single fucking human being can ignore. But because of the way it felt with him last night, the way he dominates me with this enticing brew of fear and seduction all rolled into a wicked grenade that exploded inside meâcatapulting me from being the girl who regretted making this deal with him, to the woman who wantedâ¦more.
I catch a glimpse of my reflection in the mirror before walking out of the room. After I managed to get myself out of the bathtub last night, I went to Mirabella, all timid and desperate, asking for help so I couldâ¦fit in. Look the part.
Deep down, I guess a part of me wanted to impress Alexius. Make him see more than a stray animal when he looks at me. Last night, he left me feeling like Iâve never felt before. Exhilarated. Delirious. Satisfied, yet not satiated, because I needed more. More of him. It was the first time in my life that I pushed my inhibitions to the side. I ignored my fear, gave in, and it was the first taste Iâve had ofâ¦freedom.
Call me stupid for being so damn eager to please him, thinking heâd notice that I might be more than just a poor girl.
Mira stands from her chair and gasps when I walk into the dining room. âOh, my God, look at you.â Her hands are warm on my shoulders as she scans me from top to bottom. âThis dress has been made for you, I swear.â
âThank you for letting me borrow it.â
âWoman, I have a lot more where that came from. I think we should unpack my entire closet and move a few things to your room. God knows itâs going to take all day doing that.â
My gaze flashes toward Isaia sitting across from me, and my cheeks instantly burn, forcing me to look away. âThereâs no need. Alexius is taking me shopping after breakfast.â
âHe is?â Mira cocks a brow as she sits down.
âYes. I asked if you could go with me, but he insisted that he takes me. Un-fucking-negotiable is the term he used.â
âHuh.â She pops a fresh strawberry into her mouth, her frown reflecting her pensive thoughts.
