Chapter: HURTI didn’t even remember how I ended up in bed. The last clear memory I had was leaning against my bedroom door, trying to breathe, trying to steady myself after everything that happened downstairs.Maybe I crawled into bed at some point. Maybe my body just shut down and carried me there on autopilot. All I knew was that I’d been exhausted before, but nothing compared to how drained I felt after last night.My one-week break from work was still valid, so at least I wouldn’t have to drag myself into the office. But that didn’t solve the bigger problem: I was still in Noah’s house.I lay there for a while, staring at the ceiling, replaying every moment from the night before. Every look, every near-touch, every line I almost crossed.How on earth was I supposed to face him after that?I didn’t even trust myself enough to stay under the same roof with him.My mind wandered to where he might be right now. Was he awake? Was he thinking about it too? Or had he already buried the whole moment l

Chapter: LET HER GOAurelia’s chest heaved as she stepped back, trying to put space between them, but the heat of him still lingered, crawling along her skin like a stubborn shadow. She wanted him. God, she wanted him. Every nerve in her body was screaming for it. Every pulse, every shiver, every instinct begged her to melt back into him.But her brain… her brain was screaming louder.She wasn’t scared of Noah. Not really. She had no fear of him as a man—he was no stranger, no predator. It wasn’t that. It was the logic buried beneath the want.Even if her body begged for it, her mind knew this wasn’t right.She thought about the night with the blonde. The drugs, the confusion, the haze that made her forget her own boundaries. That was one thing—she hadn’t known, hadn’t been fully herself. This… this was different. She was awake, aware, and every thought screamed caution.She wasn’t the kind of woman who did one-night stands. She hadn’t ever been. And this—whatever it was with Noah—it was building into so

Chapter: RELEASENoah was still catching his breath, his chest rising and falling hard, the taste of her still on his tongue, the ghost of her touch still burning along his skin. His head fell back for a second—just long enough for the rush to settle—and then his eyes opened.And found her.Aurelia.Kneeling between his legs, lips swollen, cheeks flushed, eyes wide and dazed like she’d been dragged somewhere she didn’t expect to go.Something inside him cracked open at the sight.Something old.Something familiar.The way she looked right now—the softness in her eyes, the trembling in her shoulders, the warm breath on his skin—it hit him like a punch.The escort.That night.That feeling of losing control with a woman who felt like a stranger and yet… not.This moment felt the same.Worse.More dangerous.Because this wasn’t a stranger.This was Aurelia.His staff.His fucking staff.The word stabbed through his brain, harsh and ugly—but it didn’t matter. Not right now. Not when everything in him was

Chapter: JiggyHer dress was still on from the ball, and he moved slowly, fingers brushing over her shoulder as he slipped the strap down. The soft fabric slid over her skin, revealing more with each inch, and the way her breath hitched only spurred him on.He lowered his mouth to her collarbone, lips trailing over the skin like he was memorizing her, and she closed her eyes, her back arching slightly into him. Every part of her was awake. She felt like her whole body had been waiting for this — for himMemories of the night her virginity was taken flashed by her eyes, she felt the way she felt that night.The atmosphere,the exact spot Noah was placing his kisses,the way she was moaning and throwing her head back. It somehow felt foreign but not new. Aurelia immediately inwardly scolded her self for comparing that night to what she was feeling now instead of living in the moment The gown pooled around her ankles, leaving her bare in front of him.Noah stepped back for just a second, and his eyes ra

Chapter: AFTER THE BALLIt was Nathan.Noah’s cousin.Even if she already guessed it, seeing him there—alone, with that twisted smirk—made her stomach churn. Sure, he was about Noah’s age, but everything about him felt older… rougher. Scarier. The kind of man you didn’t want near you when no one else was around.She tried to take a step back, but his grip only tightened. One hand still clutching her arm like it belonged to him, the other casually lifting a cigarette to his lips. He took a long drag, eyes raking over her body like she was something laid out for him to sample.“You shouldn’t run off like that,” he said, voice low, almost mocking. “What if something happened to you out here?”She said nothing.She didn’t trust her voice.He took another puff, then leaned in way too close. Close enough that she could feel the heat of his breath, the stench of his cologne, the smoke lingering between them like a curse. And then—he exhaled, slow and deliberate, right into her face.Aurelia flinched, coughing light

Chapter: DANCEAurelia hated that she was affected by him.Noah.She hated how her heartbeat had caught in her throat that morning, how she was still thinking about the warmth of his hands on her waist, the way his voice dropped when he spoke to her. She hated how his distance had stung more than she was willing to admit.He was her boss.That was the line.He’d been kind. Polite. Maybe a little warm. But that was all it was — she was probably just taking it the wrong way. Misreading everything.And with the plans she had for herself — real, grown-up, get-my-life-back plans — she didn’t have space for misplaced feelings.Especially not for someone like him.So she pushed it down.At least she tried toLike she always did.Downstairs, Noah waited near the entrance, dressed in a dark tailored suit that looked like it had been sewn directly onto his frame. His hair was slicked back neatly, a silver cufflink glinting under the chandelier light. Calm, in control — the very image of authority.Except he wa

Chapter: SILENT CLAIMSSophia sat at the outdoor dinner table, feeling the gentle breeze of the evening against her skin. The dinner, a grand affair hosted for all the cruisers, had been a pleasant experience so far. The food was exquisite, the atmosphere vibrant, and the night sky slowly transitioned into a canvas of stars. She and Robert had spent most of the evening chatting lightly, sipping champagne and enjoying the ambiance. But as she took another sip, Robert’s phone buzzed on the table.He glanced at the screen, muttered something about needing to take the call, and stood up, excusing himself with a polite nod. Sophia watched him stroll a few feet away, his figure highlighted by the soft glow of the outdoor lights.Now alone, she scrolled through her phone absentmindedly, her champagne glass dangling delicately from her other hand. The gentle hum of conversations surrounded her until a pair of voices drifted into her ears, clear enough to catch her attention.“I don’t think they’re in a relationship

Chapter: CAREFUL!!Sophia stepped out onto the balcony, hoping for a breath of fresh air and maybe a view of the ocean. The scene before her was more stunning than she had anticipated. The soft glow of the setting sun cast a warm, golden light over everything, making the water sparkle, and the sheer elegance of the balcony layout took her breath away. But what really caught her eye was the surprise waiting right there—an exclusive, small pool nestled in one corner of the balcony. It was a luxurious touch she hadn’t expected.Her excitement bubbled up immediately. She’d thought their suite was impressive enough already, but this was on another level. She turned, a wide grin spreading across her face, and rushed back into the room. “Robert!” she called, her voice full of the thrill that had taken hold of her. “There’s a pool out here! Can you believe it?” She glanced over at him, practically bouncing as she waited for his reaction.Robert looked up from his iPad, an amused smile tugging at the corner of h

Chapter: LUXURYSOPHIA'S POV The hostess led us down a polished corridor, her heels clicking against the marble floors as we followed in awe. Everything around us screamed opulence—from the crystal chandeliers to the plush carpets lining the hallway. It was like we’d stepped into a world that only existed in glossy magazines and movies. And yet, here we were, soaking it all in like it was made for us. I stole a glance at Robert, who seemed unbothered, his expression cool and composed. Just another day for him, I guess. For me? I couldn’t help but feel like I was getting away with something here.The hostess turned back to us with a smile and gestured down another corridor. "Right this way, please. You’re in the VVIP section," she said, her voice carrying an unmistakable note of respect. I couldn't hide my shock. VVIP? I knew Robert was well-off, but this was next level.I kept quiet, not wanting to seem like a total newbie, but my mind was racing. Most people would’ve been thrilled just to be on the

Chapter: TOURAs we stepped off the yacht and onto the dock where the larger boat was anchored, I took a quick survey of the setup. The boat—a luxurious vessel with sleek lines and a shining exterior—towered over the yachts that had started to gather around. Some other guests were already disembarking their own yachts and making their way up the ramp, mingling, exchanging greetings, laughing. It was a decent crowd, a mix of wealth and status, judging by the designer suits and glamorous dresses. I noted it all, but none of really intrigued me. Boats, parties, all this was pretty standard at this point.Sophia looked around, wide-eyed, her excitement practically radiating off her. It was a look I’d seen before on her—the curiosity, the fascination with the world of luxury, although she still has her elegant touch. I watched as her gaze swept over the dock, from the polished rails of the boat to the crew members in their crisp uniforms. It was amusing seeing her like this, clearly enjoying herself.

Chapter: ON OUR WAYSOPHIA'S POV As Robert and I arrived at the boarding area, I took a moment to take it all in. There was a small crowd gathered, all dressed impeccably, their conversations weaving together in a hum of polished accents and subtle laughter. It felt like the kind of scene where the rich and powerful came to unwind, but still with a sense of formality clinging to them. No one looked too relaxed—everyone here was a bit on display.My eyes scanned the faces, catching glimpses of people I’d only ever seen on magazine covers or social media. To my right, a woman in a sleek black dress adjusted her sunglasses as she took photos by the water’s edge. Definitely a social media influencer. Beside her stood a man whose face I recognized from a viral tech article about his latest app that made millions overnight. He was talking animatedly to a well-dressed older couple, his hands moving in exaggerated gestures, like he was pitching a story rather than just making small talk. And then there was us,

Chapter: DAY 1SOPHIA'S POV The weekend had been… honestly, just so good. I’d be lying if I said it wasn't nice having someone like Robert around. We’d spent hours walking through the garden, and even though the place was way too fancy for what I was used to, it somehow felt natural. Trying new dishes the chef whipped up had turned into a little game, too—some stuff was amazing, and other things… let’s just say I was glad Robert didn’t make fun of me too much when I nearly spat out that one dish. Then there were the movie nights, hours just sinking into the couch, and the light competition of board games. I didn’t even mind that Robert kept winning because it was fun watching him get competitive about things so small. And, okay, we definitely took a few whiskey shots here and there. Not like, drunk, but just enough to feel loose and laugh harder at things that weren’t even that funny. It was the kind of weekend I hadn’t realized I’d needed. Now, though, it was cruise day. The morning had flown
