Chapter 4The tension in the air grew thick. Whatever control Tony had was shattered.

He stopped thinking, his body taking over. He pressed into her, desperate for every inch of her.

Their breaths came in ragged gasps, drowning out everything else.

The feeling was erotic high. He nipped at her earlobe while smooching all over her face. He then settled on pressuring against her lips, which where already pouted.

"Their kiss was passionate. one Tony would never had with her if he was in his right senses, In rhythm like the tide, pull and tug. Their tongue twisted as they tasted each other's scent." His aroma was so fulfilling, one Amore had so badly longed for. His muscles hardened and working its way all over her body.

" Amore let out moan's of passion as it shock through her body, "Amore felt her blood rushing in ways she never felt before."

When it was over, amore lay against his damp chest, her breath shallow. Wrapped up in him, she felt something like happiness.

Then Tony flipped her onto the bed.

His voice came out cold and sharp. "Two years, and you're still pulling this sleazy crap."

She wanted to explain, but the words wouldn't come. She'd lost control first.

Whatever she said now, he'd just hear as an excuse.

Suddenly, the ring of his phone broke the silence.

Tony pulled on his shirt while answering in a low, magnetic voice. "Hello, Samantha."

Amore held her breath. The room was so quiet, she could hear every word Samantha said through the phone.

"Tony, where are you? I'm already at the Kilimanjaro restaurant, waiting for our candlelit dinner."

"I can't make it tonight. Let's do it another day," he answered quietly.

But Samantha didn't give up; her voice went soft and syrupy.

It made Amore sick. Tony was lying right next to her, yet flirting with someone else.

Amore snatched the phone and said sweetly, "It's my ovulation day, Tony. We'd better hurry."

Samantha went silent. Just as she was about to speak again, Tony said, "Bye, Samantha."

With that, he hung up.

Fury twisted Samantha's face. She grabbed whatever was nearby and smashed it.

"Amore, you f******bitch!" she screamed into the void.

Tony looked at Amore coldly. "You did that on purpose, right?"

She didn't deny it. "We've been married two years. I never asked you to act like a husband. I just kept hoping you'd fall for me. Not so you could mess around with other women."

"You're gonna be disappointed. I'll never love you."

The words hit hard. She threw herself into his arms. When he tried to push her off, she sneered, "One round and you can't get it up? Want me to fetch you a little something to help?"

No man could take a jab like that. Tony wasn't the exception. His eyes flared red, and he shoved her onto the bed.

By the time it was over, it was past midnight.

Tony pushed her aside, picked up his phone from the floor, and called his assistant, Bob.

"I'm stuck in a bedroom at my grandpa's. Come get me."

Bob arrived not long after. Whatever he did, the door unlocked fast.

Amore didn't look at Tony, knowing he wouldn't stay.

Worn out, she lay under the blanket, drifting off, until a knock startled her awake.

She threw on a robe and opened the door.

Bob stood there, holding a glass of water. "Mrs. Powers," he said politely, "my boss asked me to bring this to you."

She saw the morning-after pill in his hand. Her face stayed blank. "I'm good. He used protection."

Bob lowered his voice. "He said just in case."

Her chest tightened. "And if I don't take it?"

Bob hesitated, clearly uncomfortable. "Well, I don't mind being put in a tough spot. I'm just worried he'll come in and make you take it himself."

Something in Amore snapped.

She knew Tony would do it if he had to. So she swallowed it down, but the bitterness lingered.

The vasectomy and those injections

But Tony wasn't taking any chances.

Amore took a deep breath, fists clenched to stop her hands from shaking. "Sorry, that must've been awkward."

Bob shook his head. "Mrs. Powers, things will get better."

"Thanks."

She returned to bed, curling up where tony had been, pulling the blanket around her.

She slept straight through to noon. After getting dressed, she headed to the mall.

Her mother had mentioned her back was acting up, so amore planned to pick up a back brace.
