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
Aria “Alpha!” I gasp, but he silences me with a finger sliding between my wet folds. My body betrays me, a moan escaping as he pumps slowly, torturously. I'm on cloud nine. “Fuck…. don't stop.” “What was that you said?” His voice is a low rumble that sends shivers down my spine. “That your body
Aria Lucas studies me for a moment, his frown deepening. “I’ll give you some time to think about it.” Time? What for? I’ve already made up my mind, apparently in record-breaking poor judgment. "I don't need to think about it. Let’s do it," I say confidently, crossing my arms. "And no, you don’t
Lucas We step into the rink, and I’ve got my hockey stick in one hand and a head full of thoughts about Aria. Yeah, her. The girl who just told me she’s fine with being my fuck mate. Like, does she really mean that? Because if she does, damn, I’m in trouble. I can still feel her wetness on my fing
Aria As I approach Vanessa and her crew, I feel Mia practically vibrating beside me, like she’s gearing up for a battle. Her forced smile is so fake it could qualify as plastic, but hey, we all play the game differently. Vanessa and her pack of mean girls are laughing, probably over some dumbass j
Aria Christmas is just two days away, and the hall already smells like the season itself—peppermint, pine, and that cloyingly sweet sugar-cookie air freshener someone thought was a brilliant idea to pump through the vents. The air is crisp, carrying a slight chill, but the soft glow of Christmas li
Mia “All right, so where do we start?” I ask, holding up the paper. My voice is already dripping with annoyance because, honestly, this guy just existing near me is fucking exhausting. “We can start by getting to know each other,” Damon says, flashing that stupid, cocky grin that probably works on
Lucas "Lucas, where the hell are you?" my dad grunts. My eyes flick to Aria, and she looks fucking mortified. "Where’s Damon?" he demands, his tone sharp as hell. "What did you do to him?" I grit my teeth. "If you really wanna know, then come get me yourself." "You’re coming back, now." "I’m n
She turns to face me with a soft smile. "It’s alright." Still, guilt tugs at me. "I just… I don’t know much about them," she murmurs. I exhale, my fingers grazing over the edge of the pillow. "I wish I knew more too. But my mom remembered them fondly, especially your mother. She was her best frie
Lucas We burst into the public bathhouse, panting like we just ran a damn marathon. Which, technically, we kinda did. Ten minutes of non-stop running, ducking behind corners, and nearly knocking over a fruit stand…all to shake off my father’s warriors. I scan the room, my chest still heaving. Doe
Her release pulls me right after her. My grip tightens, my thrusts turn erratic, and then I’m coming hard, spilling deep inside her. We stay like that for a moment, panting, chests rising and falling in sync. Finally, I set her upright in the water, brushing soaked hair from her face. "That was…"
Lucas "Lucas, you're fucking crazy!" Aria yells, but she's laughing, that adorable sound that always does something to my goddamn heart. I grab her waist and pull her close, our slick bodies pressing together in the water. Her skin’s warm despite the river, and fuck, she fits against me too perfec
His thick, long fleshy cock is just there. Right in front of me. Staring at me like it fucking owns me. Lucas tilts his head, watching my reaction. “You wanna touch it?” His voice is pure mischief. My face burns. “No, I don’t…” “Oh, come on, Aria. Don’t act like you haven’t seen it before.” He
Aria “I can’t fucking believe you spent all the damn money Damon gave us, Lucas.” I cross my arms, giving him a hard look as he shoves his phone into his pocket. Damon just promised to meet us in an hour, but now we’re officially broke. Lucas shrugs like it’s no big deal. “Oh, come on, Aria. You
Mia “You’re finally here,” Lily says the second Theo and Damon step into Joy Park. She’s all grins like we didn’t just spend hours waiting. “And are you sure you weren’t followed?” “We were, actually.” Theo wipes his forehead like a dramatic diva. “But we lost ’em. Shit was wild.” “You both look
…. I step out of the shower, a towel snug around my waist, water dripping from my hair. Great. Lucas has already showered, thrown on one of Sarita's mate’s clothes, and is probably waiting for me to figure out my next move. And here I am, with zero clothes of my own. Ugh. I glance at the closet are
