Emma’s POV

After breakfast, Ryker dragged me not literally, but close enough to the most luxurious shopping mall I had ever seen.

I stood frozen at the entrance, my jaw practically on the floor. Everything screamed money. From the shimmering chandeliers to the polished marble floors, this was a place where people like me didn’t belong.

“I…I don’t need shopping,” I stammered, looking up at him. “Really, I have clothes.”

Ryker barely glanced at me as he tugged me inside. “Not the right ones.”

I narrowed my eyes. “What does that mean?”

He smirked. “You’ll see.”

Great. That wasn’t ominous at all.

I crossed my arms, but before I could argue further, Ryker suddenly reached out….

My curls tumbled down wildly, cascading over my shoulders.

    Emma knew the day would be hard, but she didn’t expect it to be this bad. The moment she stepped onto campus, a suffocating silence fell over the students nearby, only to be followed by hushed whispers and stifled laughter. She could feel the weight of their stares, judgment hanging in the air like a storm cloud about to burst.“She really thinks she’s something now, doesn’t she?” someone murmured behind her.“I bet she threw herself at Ryker Knight,” another voice sneered.“Nothing but a desperate gold digger.”Emma’s grip tightened around the strap of her bag, but she kept walking, pretending not to hear them. Let them talk. She wasn’t going to break just because a few bitter people had nothing better to do.As she approached her lecture hall, she noticed a group of girls standing in her path. Sophia, the self-proclaimed queen of the university, smirked as she crossed her arms. “Well, well, if it isn’t our local Cinderella,” she drawled. “Tell me, Emma, did you beg Ryker for that ri

    Emma woke up with a heavy heart, but she forced herself to push aside the events of yesterday. She didn’t want to dwell on the cruel words or the looks people gave her. Today was a new day, and she had to keep moving forward.She got out of bed and quickly got ready for university, pulling her long hair into a high ponytail. As she reached for her bag, she noticed a message from Ryker’s driver, letting her know that the car was waiting downstairs. Emma sighed. Ryker always made sure she was taken care of, but today, she didn’t want to rely on him. She wanted to handle things on her own.Instead of taking the car, she decided to take the bus. It was crowded, noisy, and nothing like the comfort of Ryker’s luxury car, but at least it gave her the sense of normalcy she craved. As she reached her university, she straightened her shoulders and walked in, determined to ignore the whispers.But fate had other plans.The moment she stepped into the campus grounds, a group of girls was already

    Emma blinked up at Ryker, her wide, innocent eyes reflecting the dim golden glow of the vanity van’s soft lighting. There was trust in her gaze, but also a flicker of nervousness, something new and unfamiliar blooming inside her. Ryker could see that she was feeling things she had never felt before. And damn, if it didn’t make him want her even more.His fingers traced the side of her face, his touch featherlight yet possessive. “You’re mine, Emma,” he murmured, his voice husky with restraint. “Only mine.”She swallowed hard, her breath hitching when he leaned in, his lips brushing the curve of her jaw. “I know,” she whispered, her fingers curling into the fabric of his shirt.Ryker’s smirk deepened. “You don’t know how much I’ve waited for this,” he said, his hand sliding down to rest against her waist.

My legs were tangled with his, and my cheeks burned as the memories of last night came rushing back.I had never felt like that before, never knowing my body could respond to someone’s touch in such an overwhelming way. And Ryker… he had been so gentle yet so dominant, taking his time to make me feel things I had never experienced.I stirred slightly, shifting under the silk sheets. That’s when I felt Ryker's lips pressing soft, lazy kisses along my shoulder. A shiver ran down my spine as his fingers traced slow circles on my bare waist.“Good morning, my little lamb,” he murmured, his deep voice thick with sleep and desire.I bit my lip, trying to suppress the smile threatening to form. “Morning…” I whispered, my voice barely audible.His hand slid lower, resting possessively on my hi

Her fingers fidgeted with the hem of the oversized shirt she had thrown on his shirt.Ryker, lying lazily against the pillows, watched her with a smirk. “What’s going on in that pretty little head of yours?” His voice was deep, smooth, but there was an edge of curiosity in his tone.Emma hesitated before speaking. “Only David knows about us.” Her voice was soft, unsure. “My father and my brothers… they don’t know anything yet.”Ryker’s smirk faded slightly, his blue eyes narrowing as he sat up. “And your mother?”Emma opened her mouth to respond but felt a sharp sting in her chest. Her mother. The mere thought of her made Emma’s throat tighten. Before she could stop herself, her vision blurred, and tears welled in her eyes.“Emma?” Ryker’s voice was now softer, but with a touch of concern. He imme

Punishing me for something he himself couldn't understand. I begged. Pleaded. But it didn't matter. His hands gripped my waist, pulling me closer with every thrust, until I thought I might break.It was relentless. Bruising. He had no mercy, no restraint. He wanted to take it. And I let him. Cause that's all a vulnerable woman like me could do. The bed creaked beneath us, but it wasn't enough. His rage spilled out. We crashed onto the floor, then the couch, until I was pressed against the cold glass of the window. My skin seared from the icy touch of the pane. Yet he only pressed harder.Pain is the price of betrayal, they say.And I was paying in full.There was no escape. His punishment was for both of us.

Said Matthew breathed heavily, Mia's chest rising and falling rapidly in anxious breaths as Liam once again moved his tongue between her honeypot before gently sucking her clit into his mouth.
