"Would you be open to a third round?"Heat crawled up to Riley's face. Then, images of her being pressed against the tinted glass window and fucked from behind played in her head. Riley's throat became paper dry as she answered, "Adrian?"She laughed and restarted, "I was just joking. Haha. Don't wo
"Why don't you sit for a while? I have a few instructions for Clint," Adrian suggested because Riley's legs were shaking. Guilt washed over him, seeing his wife walk funny in the hotel lobby. He knew it was his fault, but she did explicitly say he could 'ruin her.'They had very rough sex in the sho
### FLASHBACK ###High school was a time of heightened emotions for Riley. The absence of a father figure in her life became a gaping void only magnified by the sight of her friends with their dads. Yet, Renee, her mother, steadfastly refused to broach the subject of Riley's father for reasons unkno
Adrian heaved a sigh, following Riley's request. He pulled her closer to him and pecked her forehead. He acknowledged, "Okay. If that is what you wish. I will let it go."Riley's demand for him to back off left Adrian with a lingering sense of unease. It wasn't long ago that Renee had asked him to i
While Adrian argued with this affluent man, Riley blankly stared at the woman behind him. She looked so pretty and familiar. It wasn't until the man introduced himself as the CEO of a big corporation that Riley finally recognized the woman. It was Gabrielle Taylor, the actress in the movie The Fall
"He just got better from pneumonia, so he is a little sensitive," Gabrielle smiled and said, "Thanks for your concern.""Does he have asthma?" Adrian asked. "You could say, but really, it's a lung disease. He was born premature, so his lungs were not fully developed when he was born." Gabrielle smi
"Adrian? This villa is huge? It has -" Riley hastily walked around the villa and opened each room. They both turned up in the living room when she announced, "There are three bedrooms!""And look here," Riley pointed to the view from the living room. There was a lanai outside, but after that, expans
"I don't know if this is a good idea," Riley said while sitting on Adrian's lap. "Exercising your legs will make you feel better, Hun," Adrian suggested while driving his electronic wheelchair to the beach. A groan left Riley's lips. She whined, "Why did you have to push so hard!""You weren't com
"And our baked ham is here!" A tall man in his early fifties rushed out from the house, carrying a huge homemade ham. "And that's my husband, Eric Dawson," Serena introduced. "Eric, Charlie."Eric rushed to the table and set the ham down. Then, he extended his hand to Charlie, saying, "Finally, we
"Wow!""Amazing!""Wait, is that a pool?" Charlie exclaimed after walking out of the ground floor's patio. Inner Devil: 'Did I tell you you had hit the jackpot, Charlie?' Guardian Angel simply pouted her lips. A maid had earlier informed her that breakfast would be at the estate's backyard, the s
It took seconds before her senses returned to her. She screamed, “Taylor! Why didn’t you close the door?”She slammed the door shut, fuming as she reached her room. Later, while having breakfast, Taylor kept chuckling while eating. He asked, “What is so fucking wrong if you had seen me butt naked?”
“Good morning,” Taylor greeted, forcing Charlie to lay on her back. “Babe, give me a quick morning kiss.”Who was he kidding? For the past two days, Taylor had been waking her at half past five for a morning kiss. Although he called it ‘quick,’ they made out for fifteen minutes yesterday. Charlie c
“It’s not a problem,” Charlie answered. “This isn’t some fling, Grandpa. I really like him. Taylor is nice - a responsible brother, sweet and caring, overprotective, but so are most men in my life -”Charlie’s comment left Charles laughing. He asked, “Does that include me and your other grandpa?”Ch
“Are you okay, Dad? So, you know Charlie’s grandfather?” Savannah asked. Taylor, on the other hand, gave Charlie a questioning look. He mouthed, ‘What’s going on, Babe?’“Wait. Wait. Maybe I am overthinking this,” Douglas Carrington said, raising his hand. He took out his phone and called someone.
When it ended, Douglas leaned back in his seat and rubbed the bridge of his nose before speaking. “We were fortunate that there were surveillance cameras everywhere. If not for this proof that Archie Foster started it all, Taylor, you’d be in a much worse situation now.”His voice was calm but held
‘I lost it,’ Taylor acknowledged. But what could he do? Tristan was his bottom line, and now Charlie was part of those he intended to protect. Earlier, when Taylor arrived at the Nook and Brew Cafe, he saw the growing tension from outside the glass windows. He rushed in, catching Archie slapping Ch
Taylor’s face remained grim. He was sitting beside Charlie, his arm around her waist. He reasoned, “He bullied my brother and hit my girlfriend. I say he deserved every bit of it, Officer. I’d like to make a phone call, please.”After Taylor made the call, Victor and Kevin’s parents arrived, followe
