“And we can talk about it when we’re not in the middle of a party, Evelyn.”The usage of my real name shocks me, pulling my head back. He doesn’t sound any less enthusiastic as he continues to dance literal circles around me.“We’re going to be separated from everyone who knows us for long enough. H
My heart falls all the way to the floor.The room looks around, clearly everyone unsure about their new queen. I don’t blame them. If I stand completely still, will everyone overlook me?But Sebastian’s eyes tell me to join him on stage, and I see the mischief on his face. I know he’ll do something
SebastianI am about to tear Evelyn’s dress off of her with my fucking teeth.I don’t know when I’ve ever been so damn needy or itching to fuck someone. But here she is, sitting before me with lips so soft, tasting so sweet, and giving me a feeling below the belt, unlike anyone I’ve ever met.We hav
She feels just as perfect as the first time. And I won’t let this be the last.EvelynI wake to the sound of birds chirping from outside and sun peaking in the curtains. Sore, I crack my eyes open to see my surroundings.Sebastian snores quietly beside me, making my body tremble with remembering how
SebastianGregory and I have not spoken since the first day of the year. That’s utterly fine with me because, finally, after all the planning and waiting, Evelyn and I are leaving New York and flying to Hawaii together.The issue with that, however, is that I haven’t spoken to her, either.Or Madely
Call after call and text after text, I’ve left Gregory on silent. But is it right to do the same to Evelyn?“Don’t you love her, jackass?” The question hurts, and my eyes follow where she ran off to.As if speaking with another person, I shake my head. “Of course I do.”“Isn’t that enough to be a ma
EvelynThe first flight we take is the longer of the two. We make our way to the West Coast as I snuggle into Sebastian’s shoulder.“You’re a lot to handle,” I whisper.He breathes a laugh. “Well, I can’t argue with that.”Knowing we’re so close to Hawaii after so long away, I feel the air in my lun
He raises a bushy eyebrow as if to get the answer out of me. But when I don’t give him the answer, he studies me.“I give up. What beach is this?” He finally rolls his eyes.“It’s my beach. The place I learned to surf, where I learned to grow up, where I felt my safest.”I bite my lip, knowing that
I look at Sebastian, worried that Ava might have to do that. We have him on tampering the breaks and paying off Seb’s team, but what happens if William has a gun or something, and refuses to let Ava go? “That depends. Do you forgive me for being foolish?” Ava’s voice has turned sultry, which is us
Evelyn's POV I’m more nervous than I should be. Ava’s putting her life in danger by talking to William. Not only that, but Sebastian’s laser focused on making sure things go well. I’m just sitting here trying not to tremble. William finally gets to Ava, and he looks horrible. His normal neat a
Sebastian's POV Jack Abbott studies everything I’ve given him. He sits across from Evelyn, Ava and I in our apartment, looking through each page carefully. It took a lot of outlining, but ultimately, Evelyn’s plan is perfect for this. As long as Jack’s on board with his findings, and things go r
Sebastian gives us a double take as he opens the door with his key. “When did you tell Ava?” “She tells me a lot more than you know, Sebastian.” She crosses her arms, looking between the two of us. “I’m the only person who knows the truth about you both. So, sometimes I take advantage of it.”
Evelyn's POV “Are you sure it’s not something I did? I just feel like I’m missing something.” Olivia crosses her arms, as I grab the last of my stuff. It only took me an hour to get everything out of here, and Sebastian’s waiting downstairs for me to finish up. Olivia still knows nothing. Not th
“I love Evelyn, alright? I know you don’t like it or approve, but this isn’t just some stupid game. We know what we’re risking. I’m sorry if you don’t like that.” “I don’t,” she admits, leaning against the back of the chair. “But you’re an adult. So is Evelyn. And I know this isn’t just a game. It
Sebastian's POV I’m in a blind rage now as we enter the track. If it was possible, I know I’d have smoke coming out my ears. Evelyn is still trying to convince me to stop whatever it is I’m doing. “It’s not worth it!” She’s been stressed the entire ride, but I can’t stop seeing in red. The guy
It’s a few days before I hear from Jack again. “You want the good shit or bad?” He asks over a phone call. I tell him I want everything. This is important. “Then I’ll start with the good. Your initial fears of this having to do with your former roommate? He’s heavily involved. In fact, seems lik
Sebastian's POV Evelyn’s bodyguard is six foot six and goes by Tank. He is built as his nickname suggests, with muscles that seemingly look like they’ll burst from his shirt, and tattoos wrapped around many limbs. He’s even got the bald head. In my head, I just call him The Rock after Dwayne J
