Book:More Than Lust Published:2024-6-25

Author’s POV
Grace was looking at dresses Bella has sent for her. All branded and beautiful. Grace couldn’t believe that it was actually for her.
“Take it back… I don’t have place in my room…”
Dom said casually looking at his laptop while sitting on the couch.
“You have big closet… Don’t worry about it.”
Bella replied with evil smile.
“Grace did you like it”
She looked at Grace who was confused by her behaviour.
“Umm… Yeah but i am not going to stay that long…”
She replied.
“We never know…”
Bella chuckled.
“Maids will help with the clothes… I hope you are comfortable enough…”
“Yeah… Very much”
She replied sarcastically while looking at Dom who was working unfazed.
Bella smirked.
“If you want to annoy him then act clingy… It will piss him off…”
She whispered to her.
Grace raised her eyebrows.
“Why are you telling me this… You are his family!”
She asked suspiciously.
Bella chuckled.
“That’s why i am telling you this… Piss him off…”
She patted her shoulder and walked out of the bedroom.
Grace looked at Dominick and frowned at his cool attitude. He has made her captive and how dare he sit so calmly.
Grace was irritated by his calmness, she decided to follow Bella’s advice. If it worked then well and good and if it doesn’t then atleast it won’t affect anything.
Grace sat beside him on the couch.
“I am hungry”
She looked at him.
“Change your clothes…”
He ordered not even looking at her.
“After lunch… I am hungry, i didn’t get breakfast.”
Grace whined.
“Change your clothes and I’ll give food which you won’t be able to finish whole day…”
He replied looking at her.
“If you want things then you must know how to earn it… This is not your house…”
Grace looked at him challangingly.
“You want me to change… Fine!”
She stood up.
Dominick frowned when she agreed so easily. He wasn’t expecting this. He looked at her curiously when she walked towards the clothes which Bella has left near the bed.
She turned her back towards Dominick and started unbuttoning her shirt. His back strengthened when she did that. He was shocked by her act.
He clenched his jaw and shifted in his place when she slide down the shirt from her shoulders. He tried to control himself from moving his eyes away from her back but it was impossible. His eyes roamed on her back and traveled to her round ass.
He exhaled loudly trying to control the Damon inside him.
Grace grabbed random dress and wore it. She turned around to look at him and smirked when she saw his red face and eyes Frozen on her.
“Are you hungry?”
She smirked.
Dominick kept his calm not wanting to give her satisfaction.
“Don’t worry about it… My taste is different…”
He replied and Grace’s smirk fell which made him smirk.
“I like challanges”
She replied.
“Your food will be here…”
He said and walked out of the bedroom. Not able to stand in front of her anymore.
He walked towards the bar and sat there with frustrated face.
“You look stressed…”
Bella sat beside him with smirk.
“Leave me alone…”
He said grumpily pouring himself a drink.
“Wait for the night atleast… What’s the meaning of drinking in broad day light…”
She leaned on the counter.
“Shouldn’t you be crying in the corner…”
Dom scawled.
“That’s not postpartum…”
She rolled her eyes.
“I am enjoying my motherhood.”
“Good now get lost…”
He gulped down his drink.
“That’s not how you talk to your queen…”
She replied trying to piss him off.
“And i am your fucking King…”
He glared at her.
“I know…”
She shrugged.
“And as long as i know… Kings shouldn’t be affected by small things…”
She smirked.
“Like you are bothered by your small captive… Your pants failed to hide it.”
Dom crossed his legs and rolled his eyes.
“You shouldn’t be looking at it… And it’s none of your business.”
“I am not looking at it, it’s clearly visible… And it’s my business because we are family and i care about you.”
She tried to play emotional card.
Dom looked at her confused. She has never talked to him nicely since he has woken up from the coma.
“Yes, we might have bitter relationship but that doesn’t mean i don’t care about you… You are Alexander’s brother and so are mine…”
She said and his frawn deepened with suspicion.
“I know that you couldn’t connect with any woman and that’s why you were staying away from them but if Grace has effect on you then why are you avoiding her…”
“How is anything of this is your business?”
He asked.
“Because i care about you.”
She replied.
“I know you are attracted to grace… Your face shows it all… And as a woman i know that Grace want you too…”
She shrugged.
“Why are you tormenting yourself.”
“She is our enemy.”
He replied pouring himself another drink.
“But you are not forcing her… She wants it.”
Bella replied.
“You are not hurting her and i think that’s the condition… Willing sex is not a rape…”
“You both husband wife are crazy…”
Dom sighed.
“There was a time when you used to be more crazy than anyone else…”
Bella’s smile dropped.
“I wonder what if that Dom would have been here… He would have leave Grace for a second…”
Dom couldn’t understand her words.
“What do you mean?”
“Nothing”
She sighed.
“You were just passionate about your work…”
She got up from the chair.
“But think about it… You don’t have to hold back just because she is kidnapped by you… If she wants it too then why not?”
Dom looked at her when she walked away giving him craziest advice ever.
He sighed shaking his head and looked at his glass.
He felt presence beside him.
“I want vodka…”
He clenched his jaw when he saw Grace out of his bedroom.
He definitely wasn’t going to slide it off.
