All Chapters of Meant to Be... Yours: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Ella sat there thinking how lucky she was. Her life had been a nightmare, but she had some angels watching over her. Hank was Tom’s eldest brother and also used to work for her father, and when his brother sought a way out of the business he took up the courage and followed suit. He was amiable, patient and dutiful, although these may be true

Flashback“Justin! What are you doing here?” Claire asked with glazed eyes humping Devon on top of her office desk. She didn’t bother to stop what she was doing and Justin advanced on them like a rabid wo

The doctor came a second time to check Ella's ankle and it was practically healed releasing her from bed rest. She walked already with a slight limp and at least for now she had more freedom to move around and Justin wouldn't oppose her going home. It was around eleven in the evening and Elsie had retreated to her quarters. Ella was in her bedroom waiting for him to get home and in the last few days, since the night he had the nightmare, he seemed to be avoiding her at all costs, and it unnerved her. He would leave early in the morning and come back late at night. She had to talk to him and make him understand she could go home, what was the point in

“Not yet, my cinnamon girl. You’re so wet for me… You're gorgeous,” Justin whispered and wickedly licked her juices from his fingers, and once again took her mouth wild and possessive. He trailed soft kisses down her neck to her ears. “Drenched, Justin. I can’t wa

Justin came out of the bathroom to an empty room, and he looked at the mussed sheets where still lingered a mixture of their perfume and sex. He got back in bed and covered his eyes with his forearm. No! It wasn’t only sex to what happened in there. What was wrong with him? She came to soothe him willing to drive his demons away and gave herself up to him to make him whole again. And what did he do? He behaved like an asshole. He saw the hurt in Ella’s eyes, and he was sure he would pay the price. Justin was sick and tired of living behind a ghost, Claire’s ghost, and Ella confused him as much as Claire.

Ella felt like a blow to her stomach and her legs gave out underneath her, then she found herself on the floor drained all of a sudden. Tears were threatened to fall and numbness swallowed her. She didn’t know what she was supposed to do, with shaking hands she put the note in the back pocket of her jeans and grabbed her cell phone punching Valentina’s name.

“Calm down, honey. Tell me what happened,” listening to his calm and gentle voice soothed her like a balm.“Someone broke into my house, and they were looking for something, but I have no clue what they wanted. You need to see, Hank, they put my house down…” she paused drawin

“How’s that for being disgusted by you?” he didn’t give her time to answer crushing his mouth on hers and kissing her. It was a hard kiss meant to punish and Ella fought in the beginning, punching him and shaking her head, then she breathed deeply and her lips opened to him letting Justin’s tongue free access to revel in it. The spiciness of him invaded her and Ella's hands moved to his neck and back on their own accord holding him close to her. Justin's hands were dancing down her body trying to memorize every inch of it with his fingertips. He could feel his heart pounding in his chest and flames dancing in his skin the

A few minutes later Ella started moving missing the warmth of Justin's body close to hers and slowly she opened her eyes looking around. She touched the bed and it was still warm from his body heat, probably, he had just left the bed.“Justin,” she called him still sleepy. “Justin!”

“When do you need to go back to work?” Justin was resting his back on the tree with Ella comfortably snuggled against his chest holding a glass of wine.“Not until Thursday,” her fingers were laced in his, and she felt at peace there. “I love it here, this is one of my favorit
