shit out with this loser and be inside in five minutes. Oh, and princess? If you’re not there, there will be consequences.” He smiles at that last past, and I watch his super-sexy ass strut back inside.
Why does this man make me feel things so crazy? I love his pissed-off attitude, and I hate it, but mainly it makes me want to jump him. I don’t like being controlled, and that’s what he wants; he wants to control whom I see and what I do. My father doesn’t even have that right, so why would I hand it over to a man I barely know? And I think I may give him all of me; that’s what scares me the most. I have worked so hard to become who I am.
––––––––
I look up at Chase and watch as he rubs his throat. He looks at me, and I smile; he really is a lovely guy, just not right for me.
“Eliza, about last night...” I cut him off before he even finishes.
“Blue Eyes, it was fun, but that’s all it was; fun.” He is looking at me like I have grown a third head, and I lean in to kiss him on the cheek and tell him goodbye.
Once I walk inside, I see Stefanos standing there with his arms crossed over his body, looking very pissed.
“You had to kiss him, Princess?” Ha, he was watching, the sneaky bastard.
“Just shut up and kiss me already, you ape.” I stand there waiting for him, and it doesn’t take him long; in two strides, he is standing in front of me, looking at my lips. His mouth slowly descends on mine, and he places soft kisses there. He has never kissed me like this before; I’m not sure if it’s because he thinks I’m broken or because he cares for me. His hands slowly make their way to my ass and squeeze. I smile through the light kisses, and just as he is about to enter my mouth, he murmurs on my lips. “Mine.” I open my mouth and let his hot tongue devour me.
He kisses me for breath, he kisses me for life, and he kisses me for my soul. This is not our usual kiss. This is laced with more, oh so much more.
He slowly pulls away and our noses stay touching; he opens his eyes and looks at me. There is something in those big, brown eyes that speaks to me; it’s like a window to his soul, and if you’re lucky enough, you can see.
I think back to why I even went for Chase, and I think it’s because he still found me beautiful. Although, Stefanos still wanted me when I was destroyed, and he was willing to help me put myself back together, even if it wasn’t done my way.
We finally separate, and he leads me to the kitchen. I see my father standing there smiling, and I look over to see Stefanos watching me. I have my father’s approval, and that makes me happy.
“Krinos, you have a box delivered to the front door,” one of my father’s goons tell me, and I head over to open it; I find my knife and a letter.
Just because he wouldn’t let me play with you doesn’t mean I won’t, Bitch.
I stare at the letter, trying to work out who it is, then Stefanos pulls it from my grasp and reads it. He starts seething, crumples it up and throws it. That’s when it clicks; I know who it is. Druggy.
“Who sent this, Princess?” I can tell he is ready to rip someone to shreds, and I don’t answer; he might have gotten the main person I wanted, but I will get him.
“Krinos, if you know, you have to tell us.” I look up at my father and shake my head. I will not tell them; he is mine.
Stefanos storms off, obviously pissed at the situation or me; whichever one, I don’t care right now.
“Krinos, we have business to attend to tonight.” I look up at him and realize he won’t push me; I smile at that and ask him what business.
“We’re hosting a party for buyers to try the product tonight.”
“Is that smart, Father? It’s still in trial.”
“Yes, it is. I have had it on the streets for a month now, and it’s selling better than anything we have distributed before.” I’m about to excuse myself when I remember the driver, Paul.
“Father, what of Paul?” He looks
