A Deal With The Devil Chapter Twenty-Five – What Was Going On?
Brynne watched the passengers enjoy freely with their friends and family as she sped off with Luke to his private villa. This wasn’t what she had envisaged for herself. How would she face her colleagues after this cruise? “What’s the frown for?” Luke’s voice broke through her thoughts. “Nothing important.” She tried to ease her worries and enjoy her time with Luke. When the time came, she would figure out her work-related issues. “There’ll be a New Year’s Eve party on board. Would you like to check it out?” Brynne shook her head after much thought. She was not fascinated by the party when she had no friends with whom to enjoy it.“No. I’m fine with a quiet evening with you. Do you want to be there?” He gave her an exasperated look. She had the feeling he didn’t want to attend it with her. “Maybe later.” His phone on the dashboard buzzed with an incoming call. It was his grandpa calling. Luke groaned yet didn’t accept the call. Brynne gave him a clueless look. After five calls, the

Luke called his grandpa but strangely, he didn’t accept his call. What was going on? This was now getting on his nerves. He couldn’t afford to waste his time waiting to know what was going on. It would be best if he switched off his phone for a while. Switching off his phone, he walked back to the villa. Even from a distance, he could see Brynne waiting for him. It seemed she had served herself more champagne in his absence. Could he expect her to be wilder and more experimental tonight? He couldn’t wait to find out. Staying away from women hadn’t bothered him for ten years, but now, even a few hours of abstinence was driving him crazy. It was only for Brynne. Her ripe, curvy body attracted him like a magnet. She looked up to see him return. “Was it something urgent?” He shrugged and joined her on the sofa, picking up his sub to munch. “Grandpa didn’t take my call. I’ll find out later. What’s the hurry?” Brynne finished her lunch and watched him munch his. “You look tense. Are you

The air between them was electric. Brynne couldn’t help the frantic beating of her heart as he lowered his face and embedded himself between her legs. “F*cking hell! You’re soaking.” His fingers and mouth worked in tandem on her glistening se*. Brynne fisted her hands in his hair to get a grip on her senses. She could feel a desperation in his behavior tonight. It seemed as if he couldn’t get enough of her. “Oh!” she panted as Luke continued to circle and tease her cl*t, the sound of her arousal hanging in the air. Her body already seemed to know how to respond to him. She was on the brink of a release when he pulled his fingers out and raised his head to wink at her. “What the f*ck, Luke?” She was mad at him. Feeling frustrated, she wanted to punish him, but she flopped back on the pillow, still panting heavily. “What’s the hurry, Brynne? We have all night. Don’t you want me to get rid of these hindrances?” He gestured to his clothes, stripping out of his shirt first. Brynne sm

Lucien strode into his en-suite with Brynne, eager to plunge himself into her again. He had been edgy since the erotic encounter earlier. The dip in the ocean hadn’t helped, and now he was like a walking erection. Unless he got Brynne out of his head, he couldn’t switch on his phone or get any work done. He placed her down and walked into the shower cubicle while Brynne washed her face at the vanity.Staring at his reflection, Luke was stunned by his reaction to Brynne. His d*ck was painfully hard, and he needed an immediate respite. How did this deal get so complicated? From a no-strings-attached se* deal, it had turned into something he couldn’t figure out. How did his needs not get satiated even after having se* with her repeatedly? One moment he wanted to spend just the night with her while the next he wanted to spend a lifetime of se* with her. How could that be possible? He had no wish to get into a relationship with a random stranger who was his employee as well. It was there

In an instant, Luke had stripped off his clothes. He was too delirious to notice the sad smile on her face. Her gaze fell to his rock-solid erection and a tremor of need went up her body. Despite the soreness, she wanted him again.“I’ll be gentle, baby.” He eased her onto her back and caged her with his arms and legs. Before she could react, he rained kisses on her lips, her jaw, and the soft column of her neck. His deft fingers eased the clothes off her body. She was wearing nothing underneath the dress. “You’re such a tease.” His hands roamed her body, pausing to stroke her taut nipples. It wasn’t enough, and he dipped his head to capture them into his fiery hot mouth. His tongue teased them, leaving a trail of fire in its wake. His fingers traced down her stomach, around her bellybutton, and over her hips downwards. “God, Brynne. Do you know how much you turn me on every time?” Brynne smiled sadly, her heart heavy with longing. If he liked her so much, why was he breaking off wi
Last Updated : 2025-01-05A Deal With The Devil Chapter Thirty – An Unforseen Crisis
Lucien strode down the promenade with purpose, flanked by his bodyguards, towards his grandpa’s suite. Oblivious to the curious looks he received from the passengers on board, he braced himself for his grandpa’s wrath. He should have spoken to his grandpa earlier instead of getting carried away. “When did Grandpa arrive here?” He glanced at Grant, the bodyguard nearest to him. “Two hours ago, Mr. Sylvester. Fitzgerald was trying to contact you.” He nodded, knowing his mistake. But he was answerable to no one, not even to his grandpa. The situation he was currently in was mostly because of his grandpa. If he hadn’t forced Lucien to marry Celine, the circumstances would have been completely different today. “Is Grandpa in his room?” Of course, he knew the answer. Benson Sylvester hated his cruise ships, but boarding one of them was the only way to catch hold of his grandson. Therefore, he never explored the ship and mostly preferred staying in his suite. To him, the family business

Brynne stirred, feeling a throbbing pain between her legs. Her whole body felt mowed down, and she winced as she tried to move. It woke her up, and she glanced around the room. There was no sign of Luke. She looked at the other side of the bed. It didn’t look slept-in either. Where was he? Hadn’t he slept at night? Had he spent the night somewhere else? Was it over between them?Still perplexed, she rose and staggered to the washroom to freshen up. The pain between her legs worsened with movement. It was the worst way to start the New Year. The party din outside had died down after disturbing her all night long. There was a knock on the suite's main door and her heartbeats raced in apprehension. Who could it be? Surely, Luke had a spare set of keys. She couldn't race to the door even if she tried. Brynne slowly emerged from the washroom when the main door clicked open. Her heart swelled with happiness. Luke was here! He hadn’t left her! She limped towards the door of the bedroom to
Last Updated : 2025-01-08A Deal With The Devil Chapter Thirty-Two – Who Was Luke?
Daniella gripped Brynne’s shoulders to drill some sense into her head. “Can you face the wrath of all females for sleeping with the boss? He’s a womanizer, Brynne. He used you and left you. Did you think you were his real girl or something?” Brynne blinked to grasp her friend’s agitated speech. Boss? Who was the boss? How could Luke be their boss? She extricated herself from her hold and placed the food on the coffee table nearby. “You're not making sense, Dani. Luke offered me a fake dating deal to ward off his would-be fiancée on this trip. I agreed, and that’s all. Which boss are you talking about? Benson Sylvester? Why am I repeatedly being paired with him? He’s fit to be my grandfather.” Daniella gaped at her clueless friend. Was she that naïve to not recognize Lucien Sylvester, their boss? “Are you crazy? Why would they pair you with Benson Sylvester? He isn’t the boss anymore. Lucien Sylvester is our new boss.” She shook her head in disappointment. “Don’t you know who your Lu

“Shall we get to know one another better? After all, you’re my client-servicing girl. We will need to travel together.” His hooded look and raspy bedroom voice made her wet between the legs. What was he implying? How would she get to know him better? And why the f*ck would she travel with him?“W-what b-boss? I didn’t get you.” She gave him a blank look, her gaze dropping to his dewy lips and messed-up hair. Why did it seem as if he was inviting her to kiss him? He stood up, and she did a double take. Was he now coming over to kiss her? He skirted the table towards her, like a predator towards his prey. It made her jump from her seat and step backward in panic. “Stay right there, Luke, I mean boss. Don’t come near me. What are you planning to do? To have me on your desk?” She watched him stop for a moment as if to consider her suggestion. Shit! Why did she have to say it aloud?“Maybe to get your signature on this.” His lips twitched as a smirk fought to break free. Instead, he prod
A Deal With The Devil Chapter Thirty-Seven – Boss Or Luke?
“Now? At lunchtime?” groaned Brynne, as she trudged towards his office. Why did he summon her at such a time? Nora shrugged and left while Brynne hesitated. After tackling clients all morning, she was ravenous. Her stomach complained, and she was sure the entire office could hear her. Maybe she would grab a quick sandwich before heading to his office. Surely he would grant her that. She walked away and entered the cafeteria instead. Her gaze went towards Julia, Adrian, and Eric near the counter. “Hey, Brynne! Over here!” She waved at Brynne like a long-lost friend. Brynne waved back and inched her way towards her. “Hi, what are you having?”“Oh, it’s Andrew’s birthday treat. Let them get the food. We’ll occupy a table somewhere.” Julia pulled Brynne to a vacant table nearby, maybe the only one available. Daniella too joined in and smiled at Brynne, as if relieved to see her. “What’s up with you?” Brynne whispered to her. “Nothing. I got swamped with the workload.” Brynne knew it
A Deal With The Devil Chapter Thirty-Six – Chaos At The Office
Brynne walked into the office with her breath stuck in her throat. She had expected to run straight into the usual office chaos: people gossiping about one another. Maybe this time she would be the hottest topic of discussion. But something bizarre was happening today. All her colleagues were busy at their cubicles, surprisingly working their ass off! That too on the first workday of the New Year!What was wrong with them? They didn’t even notice her enter. Brynne released the breath she was holding and walked over to her office. Maybe they wanted to impress their new CEO. Her gaze fell on Daniella at the accounts department opposite her office. She looked weird as if she had seen a ghost. Surely she knew she’d meet Drake here!Brynne couldn’t understand this eerie calm around her. Pulling her chair out, she sank in to start her day. She was almost halfway through her mail inbox when the main door opened and Drake strode in. He looked annoyed. His previous good mood had already van
A Deal With The Devil Chapter Thirty-Five – Who Was The Sender?
“Where should I drop you, Ms. Emerson?” Grant’s voice brought her back to reality. They had left the parking area of the busy Manhattan Cruise Terminal behind, and Brynne sighed. The much-awaited cruise tour was over. It was far from what she had expected, turning her life upside down. “499E, 49th St., Brooklyn.” It slipped out of her tongue before she knew it. But Brynne didn’t want to take advantage of Grant’s generosity. “You can drop me off after crossing Brooklyn Bridge. I’ll book an Uber.” Grant shook his head, instructing the chauffeur to head to Brooklyn. Brynne sat in a state of confusion. Maybe this was also part of the deal. Once Grant dropped her off at her house, the deal would be over in the true sense of the term. The car sped all the way to her home, and she watched in silence. It was back to her lonely life, as if the cruise hadn’t happened at all. The car stopped right in front of her humble home and Grant got out to unload her luggage. “Thank you so much. I’ll m

“Are they here for you, Brynne? That’s our boss’s bodyguard, right? The one he left behind for you.” She gasped and clutched at her heart. Brynne frowned at her reaction and watched them approach the pier. The speedboat stopped, and Drake jumped out. He grinned at the sight of them, his gaze more on Daniella than on her. “Hey, we meet again! Maybe we’re fated or something!” He chuckled at Daniella’s pissed-off expression. Daniella stood with her hands on her waist. “What the f*ck are you doing here?” “God! Are you a terrorist’s daughter?” asked Drake with a chuckle, leaning in towards Daniella. She gave him a clueless look. “What?” He shrugged. “You are, right? No wonder he produced a bombshell for a daughter!” His grin widened and even Brynne couldn’t stop the eye roll. “Haha, very funny. I wish I could murder you and bury your body here,” hissed Daniella, but Drake chuckled more. “See what I mean?” He winked at her. “Anyway, you’ll lose your job if you kill me, lady.” Danie

“What are you doing here, Adam?” Brynne gritted out, her eyes flashing fire at the sight of the cause of all her worries. If he hadn’t betrayed her, none of this would have happened. She wouldn’t have been forced to leave the job she had worked so hard for. Adam hung his head in shame. “Can I come inside, please?” Brynne stared at the change in his demeanor. What was up with him now? “No, you can tell me what you want.” He hesitated, looking around him. He could see his boss’ bodyguard still hovering around. Mustering up all his courage, he looked Brynne in the eye. “I’m sorry for whatever happened, Brynne. Believe me, I didn’t want to hurt you. I fell in love with Miranda and I couldn’t muster the courage to tell you. I panicked. Please, can you forgive me? We can be friends like before. You know we never loved one another. Ours wasn’t a perfect relationship,” he rambled on apologetically while Brynne watched him in silence. “Why are you here? I know my forgiveness doesn’t matter
