Taylor turned around, and upon seeing Charlie, he waved at her.She blew him a kiss, and he caught it with a dramatic sigh.“Save it for after the championship, lovebirds!” Dylan called out with a smirk.After the coaches announced the end of the drill, the guys walked off the court. Taylor saw Fran

“Why?” Maxwell asked.Dawn walked toward the kitchen, saying, “Mrs. Hamilton really liked the idea of me working for her at the hospital. She already recommended me. But when Thomas found out, he didn’t like it.”“Why?” Maxwell asked.“Thomas said it has something to do with their internship policy,
“Are they coming?” Dawn asked Charlie. The two friends sat closer together in the College of Business queue of students.Clenching her jaw, Charlie stared at her phone. Seeing no response, she said, “You know what? I don’t know.”Graduation day finally came. Luxford University’s auditorium was packe
Charlie pulled back, frowning. She hadn’t even realized it!Right now, though, Taylor looked more delicious than that cream puff. So, despite being on stage, Charlie buried her crying face into Taylor’s chest.Applause could be heard as they moved down the stage. There was no better way to end her s
“Yeah!”“Way to go, Tristan!”The sound of a basketball bouncing off the pavement filled the late evening air at the Carrington Manor driveway.Taylor, Tristan, Jasper, and Kian had been playing basketball using a hoop mounted on the garage wall. Taylor wiped sweat from his brow, grinning as he fet
Kian turned to Taylor. “Won’t you help with the family business eventually? And if you do… won’t you have to move to Halliport?”Taylor looked at Tristan, then at Charlie. He hesitated but soon said, “A lot can still happen. Right, Babe? We’ll take it one step at a time.”“Taylor? Adrian said it’s t
Charlie’s hand slammed against the mirror, holding herself steady as Taylor slowly went down on her.Inner Devil 2: ‘Oh, my Satan! I feel like Rose in Titanic—except Jack’s not sketching me; he’s scuba diving!’Inner Devil: ‘We don’t know what they were doing in that car, okay? Everyone saw the hand
Dawn shook her head. “Let’s start with the good news.”“We have actual clothes. I found two of your shorts in here. They probably got mixed in with mine,” Maxwell said. “But the only shirts we have are these.”He pulled out one extra-large T-shirt with a print that read: [I Put the ‘Max’ in Maximum
Dawn felt the pain, but as soon as Maxwell pinned his bare body against her, the pleasure returned. The fact that they were skin-to-skin gave her a different level of happiness.“Max,” Dawn shut her eyes, noting how it felt to have something long and big inside her.It honestly scared her at first,
“Mmmm.” He heard Dawn react.He continued to kiss her jaw, then her neck. He gave her soft bites, licking a few parts of her skin while slowly moving down.“You smell so good, Noodle,” he said softly.When he stared at her breasts, his breathing hitched. He had been looking forward to getting his mo
Standing in front of Maxwell was a very slender Dawn wearing sexy, soft pink silk nightwear that flowed a few inches below her hip.And Dawn? She was covering herself with her hands. Her fair skin was on full display—from her chest, arms, and long legs. Her face was red, and she averted his gaze. Sh
By Friday, Maxwell still drove Dawn to the hospital. They had lunch together and came home together.Dawn was preparing to give a little more to their relationship—because why not? They had the ultimate green light—not just a nod, not just a wink. It was like their mothers were holding up signs: “GO
Yes, they welcomed Thomas into the house, but no, he wasn’t comfortable in any way.He was standing before Dawn while she was seated on the couch.And the entire time, Maxwell paced around the living room, repeatedly thrusting his fist into his palm as a warning. Mina stood behind them, throwing dag
“Thank you, Mrs. Hamilton. I’m really glad we talked,” Dawn said.But, it wasn’t just Mrs. Hamilton. At 10 a.m., Andi walked up to her desk.“Wow, I saw you and Maxwell Turner kissing outside. I—” she gulped, “I’m sorry. He’s hot, by the way. You’re so lucky.”Dawn just stared at her, then calmly re
Luxford Iron Pulse was taking a one-week break. So, many of the players were in their hometowns, resting and spending time with family.Since Maxwell was free, he brought Dawn to work on his motorbike.Dawn was fixing her hair after removing her helmet in the parking area. She was about to head into
Maxwell was so confused. When did they kiss before?“I was twelve, and your mom invited us over for her birthday. We were hanging out in your room when you fell asleep,” Dawn began.“You didn’t,” Maxwell reacted, his heart swelling. “Fuck.”She pouted and admitted, “I did.”“That barely counts, but
