moment. Why does he
have to be so handsome? Alex, being the smart man that his is, excuses himself
to go to the bathroom.

 
    "Ace,
I just want to thank you for doing this for me, it really means a lot," I
say softly.

 
    Ace
smiles slightly and drops his large hand to my knee, giving it a squeeze.
"It's not a problem, sweetheart. I owe you for sucking you into the
spotlight."

 
    "Even
so, you don't have to do anything for me;   you don't have to make sure my name
doesn't get tainted, but you are, and I'm grateful," I say sincerely.

 
    To
my surprise, Ace blushes and averts his eyes. He clears his throat
uncomfortably and squirms in his seat. "Ahh...you're welcome," he
murmurs.

 
    He's
really cute when he blushes. Man, I really like him. If he were anyone else,
I'd probably be pushing for a real relationship, not a pretend one. Unable to
help myself, I lean in and place a soft kiss on his cheek. Well, it kinda ends
up at the corner of his sexy mouth. It takes everything in me to pull back. I remember
all too well how his mouth feels on mine and it's short of torture. This man is
a sinful kisser and has the power to drive me to my knees.

 
    Ace
turns his head to look at me, his eyes now heavy lidded with desire. He moves
so quickly that I don't have a chance to deflect, or maybe I just don't want
to. His one hand thrusts into my hair as his mouth crashes into mine. His
tongue immediately invades my mouth and I can't stop the moan that escapes.
Damn, I really love the way he kisses. His fingers tighten in my hair, holding
me where he wants me. His dominance is a total turn on for me. I really like
when the man takes control - in sexual situations anyway, not always in other
aspects of life.

 
    A
throat clearing has me wrenching away from Ace. Panting, I look over at the
source – an amused looking Alex. "If you two are gonna fuck, please
let me know so I can go get a hotel room," he says.

 
    "No.
No, we're not," I insist and get to my feet. "Goodnight," I say
and rush down the hall to my bedroom without looking back at Ace.

 
    I
shut myself in my room and curse my stupid feelings for him. He's no good for
me. Not only would our relationship be in the spotlight, but also my dad would
never accept him. Who knows if any man would be acceptable to him. Ace is the
epitome of every man he has ever warned me to stay away from. Tomorrow is not
going to go over well. Nope, not gonna be a good day in the Gionelli household.

Chapter
Five

 
    ~Ace~

 
    The
first thing on today’s to-do list is to go see Nicole's best friend. I will do
anything she fucking wants. That kiss last night has me totally screwed up in
the head. She's doing something to me and this need to do things for her is
undeniable. Take this morning for example, I made Alex take me to the store for
breakfast stuff while she was still asleep. Then when we got back, I cooked her
pancakes and made her coffee. Alex just keeps looking at me as if he's going to
toss me into the looney bin at any minute. She was shocked, too, but the smile that
she gave me was absolutely worth it. Plus, she moaned the whole time while eating
my special chocolate chip and banana pancakes.

 
    We
show up at her friend's house at around noon. I'm hoping that she's got
something to eat, because I'm starving. Nicole rings the doorbell and less than
a minute later, a giant blonde badass looking dude answers the door. I blink up
at him. He has to be about six foot four or five. He's wearing a white T-shirt
and worn jeans, and his arms are completely sleeved with tattoos, even more
covered than mine. He rivals Alex in the muscle department. But he just oozes
cocky. We'll probably get along great.

 
    "Like
O.M.G., Ace Vaughn is standing on my step, like, seriously, this is
crazy," The big blonde – who I thought was a badass – says in a mock valley girl voice while fanning at his
face.

 
    "Jesus
Christ, Sebastian." Nicole sighs and stares up at the sky. Her face
