Chapter fifteen

I would have completely understood if Alejandro told me he had a girlfriend instead of just disappearing on me. Although it was wrong of him, I had no right whatsoever to speak up and lecture him regarding his little disrespect. So I did what any logical person would do.

Pretend to not know him.

Alejandro stepped forward until he stood right in front of me. Immediately my shoulders grew tense and I was about ready to cry out of frustration. He stared down at me with those gorgeous green eyes that pulled me to him. Suddenly I was pulled in this trance that he only knew how to pull me in.

The sweet smell of his perfume was not only intoxicating but suffocating. I was once again reminded of how he left me breathless and bothered, as though I needed him to touch me.

He silently reached out for my hand and I fucking let him, but my heart told me to get closer and let him embrace me. Confused at all this strong emotions, I watched as he brought my hand to his lips, my mouth parting.

His eyes looked up in mine as he was slightly bent down, lips lingering on my hand. As they left my skin, I felt tingles all over my body, most especially the place his lips were. "Bellissimo."

Fully rising on his feet, I couldn't ignore the look he gave me. Like he wanted to have me for dinner but in the same time kill me. I smirked.

Alejandro looked at me up and down, his eyes lingering on my cleavage that was shockingly bigger than it originally is. He frowned, zeroing on my chest. "What the hell are you wearing?"

I looked down at the beautiful black gown. "What?" My eyes lowered as I felt myself panicking, wait a fucking second, I thought I looked good in this.

Alejandro moved forward again, his teeth clenching. "Why the fuck are you wearing that? Can't you see how much skin it exposes."

Both my shoulders tensed as anger bubbled up inside of me. I glared up at him. "Since when do you care about what I wear?" Sassing back at him, he clearly didn't like it.

Alejandro suddenly tightened his hold on my hand, and I winced as pain rushed through my hand, his eyes grew cold. "Don't fucking wear that again."

"Let me go." I gritted with clenched teeth, my heart slamming in my chest. He only moved closer and immediately I felt eyes on us, eyes that questioned us silently.

"I'm not playing with you, Lysha. You won't be wearing that again, am I clear?" What was wrong with him. Couldn't he see we weren't alone? Plus his girlfriend was staring at us and watching all of this.

Rolling my eyes, I once again tried pulling myself away. "Who are you to tell me what to fucking do?" Alejandro looked like he was just about to kill me on the spot, my heart jumping off my chest.

"Don't fucking test me, Lysha. If I tell you to fucking-"

"Jandro baby?" Alejandro immediately froze up, and our eyes met for a while before he turned his head to look at Stephanie. Her blue eyes stared in confusion but the anger was clear in her eyes.

Stephanie stepped forward, grabbing Alejandros' hand and pulling him towards her. He let go of me and my hand dropped, his warmth immediately disappearing.

I watched as she stood in front of him, her hand laying flat on his chest and without hesitation he grabbed her hips. Cursing myself when I felt a weird pang in my heart.

Stephanie is incredibly beautiful, stunning even. She has that killer model body, fitted in a navy blue dress that was probably worth millions. Her makeup was beautiful and it brought out her eyes, and stunning features. Her golden blond hair bouncing with every movement she made.
