As soon as I heard the front door slam, I rolled onto my side. There is one way to put an end to all of this now. I knew there was a slim chance of success, but I had to do it.
It was the very first time in my life that I did something that was solely, wholly, and completely for me, and that was loving Alessandro. This was something that I was accepted for the very first time.
The warm, flowering sensation that had been in my chest withered away, and it was replaced by a chill that was so intense that it made me shudder. For him, I was nothing more than a hooker. When Lucas had taken me hostage, he had made his intentions crystal clear. He was more interested in his business than in me. I was nothing more than a passing fancy, or a simple diversion for a man who was always busy.
