"Tell me, little one, how do you want us?" Darien whispered darkly, peppering kisses down my neck.
I felt my body being pulled back flush against Lucas'. He breathed into my ear, his voice sending shivers down my spine. "Luna, why aren't you speaking?" His teeth grazed my earlobe, eliciting a soft moan from me. "What's got your tongue twisted?"
"Wait," I breathed out, trying to gather my thoughts.
Darien paused his actions to look at me, a hint of frustration in his gaze. "Should I call you Elise then, your new name?"
"I like both," Lucas chimed in, his smile sending a thrill through me.
"No," I whimpered as Darien continued to trail kisses along my skin.
"Then what is it?" Darien asked, his voice tinged with impatience.
"We aren't in bed," I managed to say, my voice trembling.
Lucas chuckled darkly behind me, his breath hot against my skin. "You don't have to worry about that, darling Elise."
"You have the both of us to keep you warm all night long," Darien added, his lips trailing towards my belly.
"But..." I began, feeling overwhelmed by their closeness.
Lucas turned my head towards him and kissed me passionately, leaving me with no room for argument. Lost in their embrace, I couldn't help but feel like I had known them forever, like we were destined to be together.
I should have escaped earlier when I had the chance. However, even if I wanted to, I can't.

This Story Mostly Told from Dante & Aurelia's POV
" I wasn't looking for love. Not after Annalisa. Not after what she turned me into. On the outside, I'm still Dante De Luca, cold, controlled, from one of Rome's wealthiest families. But inside? I'm barely holding together the pieces she didn't break.
Then came Aurelia. Her laugh. Her eyes. The way she says my name like it means something. She's Annalisa's Best friend. And Worse... she's taken.
But when I'm with her... I feel like me again. Not the version everyone expects. Just Dan.. the name only she calls me.
She should stay away
I should walk away
But I can't
Because when she looks at me like that I'd set the whole world on fire just to hold her once more.
This isn't the kind of love people forgive. It's the kind that burns. But some things... are worth burning for.
