Lara’s POV

The world seemed to tilt as Jake spun me, my breath hitching from the sudden motion. But when the spinning stopped, I realized I was no longer in Jake’s arms. Instead, I found myself pressed against a chest that was far too familiar, strong, and unyielding. My uncle, Aiden.

I froze, feeling his hands steady me, one firm on my waist, almost possessive and the other lightly brushing my back. His piercing gaze locked onto mine, and the air between us grew thick—too thick. My heart raced, and a strange chill ran down my spine, making my body tense against his.

I blinked in confusion. How had I ended up here? A quick glance to the side revealed Elena in Jake’s arms, her eyes wide with disbelief and her body stiff. It was as if the dance floor had momentarily swallowed everyone else, leaving the four of us trapped in a strange, unintended exchange.

"Uncle," I breathed, my voice barely audible over the music.

  • FORBIDDEN AFFECTION    MY POSSESSION

    Aiden's POV The sight made my blood boil. Jake stood too close to Lara, his posture casual, but his presence invasive. Lara looked pale, her wide eyes snapping to me as the door opened. “Jake,” I said coldly, stepping into the room. My voice cut through the tension like a blade. He turned to me, his expression calm, almost smug. “Aiden,” he greeted smoothly, as if my interruption was nothing more than a minor inconvenience. Lara looked like she wanted to say something, but she didn’t. Her lips parted, then closed again as if she couldn’t find the words. Her silence unnerved me. Jake gave me a nod, brushing past me without another word. “I’ll leave you two to it,” he said, his tone maddeningly nonchalant as he exited the room. As the door clicked shut behind him, my gaze fell on Lara. She lo

  • FORBIDDEN AFFECTION    DARM

    Lara's POV The car ride home was suffocatingly silent. Aiden’s grip on the steering wheel was firm, his knuckles slightly pale. I sat beside him, my hands clutching my dress nervously. The tension in the air was thick, and I dared not speak. When we finally reached home, he stepped out of the car without a word. I hesitated, watching him walk toward the front door, his posture stiff and unyielding. Gathering my courage, I followed him inside. The moment the door closed behind me, Aiden turned, his piercing gaze locking onto mine. "Go to your room," he said, his voice low and commanding. I froze, the authority in his tone making my heart race. "But—" "Now, Lara," he interrupted, his eyes narrowing dangerously. I swallowed hard, feeling the weight of his unspoken words. Without another word, I turned and ascended the stairs, my legs trembling with each step. Once in my room, I shut the door and leaned against it, my mind a tangled mess of emotions I couldn’t untangle For t

  • FORBIDDEN AFFECTION    EXCUSE

    Aiden’s POV I shut the door behind me, leaning against it for a moment before letting out a heavy breath. What the hell was wrong with me? I crossed the room, pulling off my tie and tossing it onto the chair, but it didn’t help ease the tension in my chest. My mind was a complete mess. That kiss… What was I even thinking? I dropped onto the edge of the bed, rubbing my hands over my face. How do I even explain something like that? “Sorry, Lara, I kissed you because I couldn’t handle seeing another man touch you”? It sounded ridiculous. Worse, it sounded possessive. I’d warned her to stay away from Jake, not to let him get too close, but she didn’t listen. And seeing her with him, and letting him hold her… Darm..... It was like something inside me snapped. I couldn’t stop myself.

  • FORBIDDEN AFFECTION    LOSING IT

    Lara’s POV Shit. My mind snapped back to reality as my Uncle's voice came from the other side of the door. “Lara, are you okay?” I blinked, my breathing still uneven. That was when I realized—I was completely naked on the floor. My face burned with embarrassment as I scrambled onto the bed, yanking the white bedsheet around me, covering myself as best as I could. It was thin, almost useless, but it was the only thing within reach. My breath was still unsteady, my heart hammering in my chest. “I’m fine!” I called out, my voice shaky, not from fear, but from… something else. He didn’t sound convinced. “Lara, open the door.” “No,” I shot back quickly. “Just go to sleep. I’m fine, seriously.” I squeezed my eyes shut, hoping he would just leave. But I could hear his footsteps pacing outside my door. “Lara,” his voice came again, low and firm, “at least let me see you. Just for a second. Let me confirm you’re really fine.” My heart pounded. He wasn’t going to let this go.

    AIDEN POV Her body tensed for a second, like she was caught between pushing me away and giving in. But the moment my lips moved against hers, claiming her, something shifted. She let out a soft, shaky breath, and I felt her melt, just a little. I deepened the kiss, my grip tightening around her waist, pulling her impossibly close. Her hands, which had been pressed against my chest, fisted my shirt instead, as if she needed something to hold on to. She tasted warm, sweet, and completely addictive. I groaned against her mouth, my tongue sliding against hers, demanding more. She gasped into the kiss, her fingers curling tighter, her body pressing against mine. The damn bedsheet was the only thing between us, and it was barely holding on. One of my hands moved up,

    Elena’s POV That fucking Aiden. I gripped my phone so tightly I thought I’d break it. Who the hell did he think he was? Leaving me like that, embarrassing me in front of everyone, ignoring all my damn calls? Twenty. Freaking. Calls. I wanted to scream. No, I wanted to throw something—preferably at his stupid, gorgeous face. I sat on the couch, my jaw clenched, my leg bouncing with pure frustration. The whispers from last night still echoed in my ears, the fake pity, the judgmental stares. Everyone saw it. “Elena.” I turned my head sharply to see my father walking in, looking composed as ever, like his daughter wasn’t on the verge of committing murder. “Are you still

    (Lara's pov) “Lara, listen to me,” my mom’s voice was gentle but firm as she stood by the door. “You need to promise me something.” I turned to look at her, a puzzled frown on my face. “What is it, Mom?” “Promise me you won't give your uncle a tough time,” she said, her eyes softening. “He’s been kind enough to let you stay with him now that you’ve transferred to his city. It’s a big change, and he’s doing this for you because he cares.” I sighed, trying to brush off the conversation. “I know, Mom. I’ll be fine.” She stepped forward, cupping my face in her hands. “I mean it, Lara. Be patient with him, okay?” “Okay, okay,” I nodded, giving her a small smile. “I promise.” She looked relieved, a smile touching her lips. “Good. Now, you should get some sleep. Tomorrow’s going to be a long day.” I nodded, watching as she gave me one last look before leaving my room, closing the door behind her. I sat down on the edge of my bed, staring at my packed bags.

    Aiden’s POV “What the f**k!” I yelled into the phone, My voice came out louder than I intended, and the entire room fell silent. I could feel the eyes of my business partners on me, but I didn’t care. Lara mattered more than their opinions. “What do you mean you haven’t seen her?” The driver stammered on the other end, trying to explain. “I waited at the airport, sir, but she never showed up. I checked around, but—” "Why the hell did it take you three hours to tell me you couldn't find her!” I felt my patience running thin. “Lara was supposed to be here by four! Now it’s seven, Damn it, and you have the audacity to tell me you haven’t seen her?” The driver mumbled some excuse, but I cut him off. “I don’t care how you do it. You better find her. And don’t call me until you have her.” I ended the call, slamming the phone on the table. The weight of my worry was slowly suffocating me. " Where are you, baby? Call me. Please.” I sent it, staring at the screen, and waited for wh

    Lara's POV The moment we stepped into the grand hall, all eyes turned to us. Aiden’s palm rested firmly on my waist as he guided me through the sea of guests with practiced ease. I could feel the stares—admiring, curious, and some judgmental—but I lifted my chin and focused on the man beside me. I couldn’t help but notice her. Elena. She stood at the edge of the hall, her sparkling evening gown clinging to her like it was designed to remind everyone she was the star of the evening. Her sharp gaze flickered toward us, narrowing slightly as her eyes settled on Aiden’s hand resting firmly on my waist. I pretended not to notice her obvious disapproval, focusing instead on the grandeur of the room. Glittering chandeliers hung above, casting a warm golden glow over the elegantly dressed crowd. Soft music played i

    Elena’s POV I stood near the refreshment table, trying to calm the storm of emotions brewing inside me. My fingers tightened around the stem of my champagne glass, and I took a slow sip, but the unease didn’t fade. The weight of the evening pressed heavily on my shoulders. Guests filled the grand hall, laughter and conversation blending into a hum, but all I could think about was Aiden’s absence. Where was he? He should have been here by now. The thought of him not showing up sent a cold shiver through me. I couldn’t let anyone notice my worry; I had to keep my composure. The last thing I needed was to give anyone a reason to gossip. “Father,” I said softly, pulling him away from a group of his business partners who had been deep in conversation. “Are you sure Aiden will show up?” He gav
