Chapter 145
I woke up feeling my body being moved. When my eyes opened, I saw Eros carrying me. I went to sleep on the sofa; I didn’t feel comfortable getting in his bed without him there with me.
“Don’t ask tonight; let’s just get some sleep,” he whispers as he stands me next to the bed. His hands move and remove my clothes before he pulls me onto the bed.
His large arms wrapped around my body, and I found myself drifting back to sleep quickly.
When I wake, he’s still in bed, I glance down and see cuts across his knuckles, my finger runs across them and I feel Eros pulling me closer to him.
“How are you feeling?” he asks, and I shrug.
“Fine,” I reply.
“That’s a lie. Clara messaged me saying Elon knew and wanted to speak to you alone, so I came straight away. You were screaming, Alexis,” he says quietly, and I nod.
“I was trying to get someone’s attention so they knew, that was all.” I shrug slightly.

“No, you were screaming because you were scared. Don’t downplay it,” he says as he turns me to face him. “You being scared and crying isn’t a fucking weakness, not in that situation, so don’t play it down and act like you’re fine,” he argues and grips my chin. My mouth opens to protest, but he continues. “I walked in and saw Alexis, the pure fear in your eyes, so don’t pretend like it was nothing,” he states, and I nod.
Moving, I push my body closer to his.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t think he would ever do that,” I whisper and wipe the tears away.
“What the fuck are you apologising for?” he asks, clearly. shocked.
“It’s my fault, had I agreed with you I wouldn’t have been there. There wouldn’t have been a contract,” I explain, and he goes to speak, but I continue. “You wanted to help, and I was so caught up in not wanting this relationship to start with you paying for me that I ignored the fact Elon was selling me. I should have just agreed,” I argue because I’m right. I’m a fucking idiot, it’s my fault.
Eros tried to buy me out and I refused because of my own pride, like an idiot. That meant he was arrested.
“It’s not your fault. You didn’t agree with me buying you out, fine, but that doesn’t mean what he did was your fault. Don’t blame

yourself, Alexis. I mean,” he says with so much feeling that I nod, but I know I will.
He moves and rolls us over until I’m below him and looking up at him.
“How much trouble are you in Eros?” I ask.
“Never mind that right now,” he says and kisses my cheek. “Clara told me you bought her out of the contract and paid her money?” His head tilts like he is confused. He shouldn’t be. I said I wouldn’t leave her there.
“How about we eat and talk?” I say as I can just imagine him fucking now he’s above me. His head lowers, and he pulls my lip free from my teeth. I hadn’t realised I was chewing it. He kisses. me, and I push him over, my body straddling him.
He chuckles slightly, but I ignore him and lower myself onto his cock. His hand reaches out and wraps around the back of my neck before pulling me to him. His lips press against mine. briefly, and I move my hips.
“I’m sure I should be the one fucking you, Alexis,” he growls and bites against my ear.
“Next time, you can tie me up,” this time, I’m in control. I expect him to argue, but he gives in, kissing him more. My hips move faster, and his hands stroke along my body as they do. His hips

begin slamming up to meet my movements. Pleasure ripples through me, and I fail at controlling my movements.
His hands grasp my hips as he keeps fucking me through the pleasure, and he groans, grinding me down against him. My body falls forward onto his chest
It’s nice and different. I feel his hands stroking through my hair, and I don’t want to move, but I know we need to talk. I need to find out how much trouble he is in.
“Okay, you shower. Alone, then we will actually get things done,”
says while kissing my neck. Nodding, I move and climb out of the bed and walk to the bathroom.
Afterwards, I walk out and glance around for my clothes.
“In there, I sorted some clothes for you for when you stay here,” Eros says and points to the door where his clothes are. Walking over, I open up and stop.
That’s not some, that’s a whole wardrobe full, turning I look at him.
“You’re acting like I’m going to be staying here every night,” I say as Hook across the dresses, casual outfits, and nightwear. My hand picks up a dress.
“Lingerie is in those there,” he points to the drawers, ignoring

what I said. Pulling open the first drawer, I gawp. Turning, I look at him, and he smiles.
“If you’re shocked by that drawer, don’t open the others,” he says, kissing me. I have to, and when I open the other drawers, I’m just as shocked. Each set of lingerie is perfectly laid out in the drawer. At my place, it’s just thrown in the drawers. These are matched and put in perfectly.
Picking up a red lace bra and thong, I glance to see the jewellery. This has to be a joke. It wasn’t here when I stole his shirt that day. Why has he bought me jewellery?
That thought stops when I see the shoes. This is too much. Getting dressed, I grab some shoes and put them on before walking out. He’s sat at a table, and food is on it, so I guess. today we’re not talking in the restaurant downstairs?
“Eros, why have you bought all that?” I ask.
“I said, for when you stay,” he smiles and begins to eat.
“Right, but that is like a full–time wardrobe for someone who lives here, not to mention the jewellery, shoes and bags.” I state.
“Are you not going to stay here full–time?” he asks while smirking.

“What is the issue with that? I’ll be working, so it isn’t like we’re together all the time. If you want space, there are spare rooms. You can keep one for yourself on nights you don’t want me near you,” he explains, but he says it so calmly that it seems nothing is wrong with that.
“We’re not even dating Eros,” I argue.
“Aren’t we?” he sits smirking. I look at him, unsure of what to say. Are we dating?
