I need to snap out of it. He’s a playboy, a man-whore, a walking disaster. For goddess’ sake, he just told me this was all a game not five minutes ago! I am so screwed. Just as I start to calm down—well, try to—there’s a knock at the door. I stiffen. I do NOT want anyone to see me right now. I’m e
Ethan I lean against the wall, arms crossed, glaring at Aria like she’s the reason my life’s gone to shit. And maybe she is. “I don’t have anything to do with you anymore, Ethan,” she spits angrily. It pisses me off how she looks at me like I’m some fucking beast. “You think I don’t know what you
Aria I trail behind Lucas, trying to figure out what’s going on. My bruises aren’t even that bad, but here we are, standing in front of the medical center like I just lost a leg in battle. He doesn’t explain, just opens the door and strides in. The middle-aged woman at the desk spots us and immed
Lucas The second we step into the bar, I let out a long-ass sigh of relief. Finally, some breathing room away from all the party chaos and… Aria. Not that she was chaos, but the look she gave me earlier when I told her I was horny and bailed? Yeah, my wolf’s been pacing ever since. That tiny flick
Aria The moment Lucas steps closer, I smell it. The scent of another woman clings to him, and my stomach twists so hard it feels like I’m being stabbed. My wolf growls, and I clutch my stomach, trying to stop the pain. “Aria, are you okay?” His voice is softer than usual, which only pisses me of
“Don’t get lost, princess,” Mia teases, but I’m already walking away, trying to ignore the fact that I can still feel Lucas’s eyes on me. I spot Vanessa and her plastic posse as soon as I walk into the refreshment area. They’re in their obnoxious cheerleading outfits, acting like they own the plac
Aria "Who would’ve thought a cruise ship had a whole-ass salon?" Lily’s jaw is practically on the floor as she gawks at the sparkly sign of the salon. "I swear, it’s magnificent." I nod, pretending not to feel my bank account screaming. But then reality hits. "But, uh, guys... this salon looks hel
Aria For a moment, I froze. My brain short-circuits as I process what’s happening. Lucas? Here? What the actual hell. Jay’s still busy trailing kisses along my neck like a horny bee, but all I can think about is the storm brewing in Lucas’s eyes as he marches toward us. “What’s this?” His vo
"And probably gunning for your heart too," Mia smirks. I snort. "Yeah, right." "Come on, Aria," she drags out my name like she’s personally offended by my denial. "You really think all those flowers were just friendly? The guy wants more. Lucas sees it. That’s why he stepped up and took you on a
Aria I manage to drag my ass to campus before noon, but damn, my body is wrecked. Yesterday was fucking great…I had the time of my life with Lucas…but holy hell, my bones feel like they got hit by a truck. I’m definitely walking funny, and I know people are staring. And, honestly? I don’t blame
Lucas The second I step into Sarita’s apartment, I don’t even make it past the couch…I just collapse onto it, completely fucking exhausted. She chuckles, settling into the chair across from me, her eyes practically dancing with amusement. "Damn, you look like you got run over by a truck." I g
"Lucas, please…" I whimper, already desperate. "No," he says. "This is perfect. I love how fucking desperate you are, how tight you get every time I slide in." I squeeze my eyes shut, biting my lip to keep from begging too soon. He’s got me right where he wants me…helpless, bound, at his mercy.
Aria It’s been over thirty fucking minutes. The vibrator is still buried deep inside me, buzzing mercilessly against my soaked pussy. My entire body is trembling, my breathing ragged. My thighs quiver, and I swear I can feel every nerve in my body screaming for relief. I’m losing my fucking m
I ache for him. I drip for him. And then he speaks. "If you really want my cock, Aria…" He peels off his jacket, his voice turning firm. "You’re gonna have to earn it." "What the fuck?" Lucas smirks, unbuttoning his shirt. "Get down on your knees." My pussy clenches so fucking hard I almost co
Aria We take the stairs, and Lucas stops in front of a door, punching in a code quickly. The lock beeps, the door swings open, and then he turns to me with that cocky-ass smirk. "After you, baby." He gestures inside. I inhale deeply, trying to keep my legs from giving out beneath me. I need him,
Aria Lucas doesn’t even acknowledge the man…just walks straight ahead, leading me to a table. He pulls out a chair for me. "Sit, baby." My heart flutters. He’s being such a fucking gentleman, and it’s wrecking me. "Thank you, baby." I sit, and he takes his seat across from me, picking up the
Aria Butterflies swim in my stomach as I pull a glistening silver gown from the bag. My mouth fucking drops open. "Holy shit." I run my fingers over the fabric, eyes wide. "This is so fucking beautiful." Lucas smirks, arms crossed, clearly pleased with himself. "Glad you love it, baby. Look i
