Gravity is a Bitch (Lesbian)

15. Sweet but psycho

Alex's POV:

Months had passed and between Elianna and I things were ... let's say intense. I had planned to move next week to the penthouse Albert had given me. Asha and I will be living there after her release in nine days. And I started working for Albert only a month ago. Everything was going well in my life, even with Daciana.

I admit that when Elianna told me about spending a weekend together in Paris, I imagined it would be romantic but I was completely wrong. Elianna was at the bar, waiting for the bartender to finish her order.

Sitting at a VIP table, a glass of whiskey in front of me. My eyes were on Elianna and her ponytail swinging from side to side. She wore a sky blue shirt tucked into her high-waisted black jeans that complimented her long, muscular legs and finished off with the sexiest shoes I've ever seen. Yes, these Christian Louboutin boots literally left me speechless. And she seemed to know it, every now and then she gave me that narcissistic smile.

With these outfits, she looked like an alien in the midst of all these people sweating, hormones out of control from alcohol. If I didn't know her, I would have thought she was here on business but with a wardrobe like hers it's hard to dress more casual. Elianna is a being apart, a special one, even without on purpose she makes you feel inferior with that aura of power almost visible around her, and written on her forehead with bold capital letter 'I am someone important'.

"She's gorgeous, isn't she?" I turn to Ryan. Yeah, see why I said it was a long way from the great weekend Elianna promised me.

"Hmmm?"

"Elianna. She's so perfect it melts my heart even more" Ryan laughed humorlessly as he finished his drink. I think he's a little tipsy.

"What are you talking about ?" I asked turning ti him.

"I'm supposed to be the happiest man in the world with a wife like Elianna. And truthfully I'm happy that no matter what she does by day, at night it's in my arms she falls asleep. But I am not the happiest man because I know that it is impossible to completely tame a heart as rebellious as hers. No matter how hard I try, the walls around are too tall and too thick" He pats me on the shoulder before going to his wife.

Sitting next to Elianna who was laughing with Ryan and his friend, it was not at all part of the perfecta weekend for which I gave up going to see Alex Morgan in the Home Round. I haven't been able to get Ryan's words out of my mind since the start of the evening.

I quickly finished my drink before going to the bathroom. Coming back, I see Ryan whisper in the blonde ear and she was all smiles nodding after her asshole of husband kissed her. I didn't bother to go back to them since they haven't even noticed my absence.

Back in our hotel room I wonder if it would be a good idea to stay here, she will surely come back with her husband. But I know I don't have enough in my bank account to take a room here even for one night. I spend a good part of the evening chatting with Daciana who, completely by chance, was also in Spain. Almost asleep I feel someone slipping into bed.

"Alex?" Elianna whispers. "You asleep ?" I pretend to be asleep because I don't want to talk, especially not to her. I know I don't have the right to do so but I feel used and betrayed. And the jealousy that invaded me didn't help at all. He's her husband after all.

*************

It was enough to look at the blonde, her head buried in my pillow, one of her legs around my hip and one arm around my stomach to make me smile and forget all I was feeling the night before. What did this woman did to me? My phone is was on the coffee table. I picked up the phone, seeing Daciana's name. Elianna growls and hugs me a little more.
