Note: There will be three books in this series, so try to connect with every character. Anyone could be the main character in the next book.

Sky’s P.O.V.

It’s late at night, and I’m in the middle of fucking a girl from behind. The girl’s hands are tied to the bedposts, and her moans fill the room as I give her deep and hard thrusts, squeezing her buttocks.

“Oh… God…” she begs, “Can I come, Sky, please…”

“Not yet…” I deny it, and the sound of my hand contacting her buttocks echoes in the room.

As I continue to fuck her, my damn phone rings constantly, annoying me.

Who the fuck is calling me at this time of night?

Frustrated, I reach over to cut the call, but then I see the name on the screen. Zoe.

The only person I can’t ignore, no matter what I’m doing. She’s been my best friend since school. Our connection was instant from the moment we met, and it only grew stronger as time went on. We know each other’s deepest secrets and almost everything about each other.

But I don’t know how she always gets into so much trouble, especially when I’m not around. That’s why I call her ‘Trouble.’

I’m damn sure she must be in some trouble again; that’s why she’s calling me at this hour.

Zoe! Zoe! When will you stop getting into trouble?

“Don’t tell me you’re in trouble again.” With a groan, I pick up the call without stopping, pounding into the woman beneath me, all at my mercy. I derive pleasure from dominating girls in bed. Whether they’re from college or the office, they’re all willing to do anything to sleep with me.

“Sky, my car stopped working in the middle of the forest. Will—” she begins, but abruptly stops as she hears my groans and probably realises what’s happening.

I knew she must be in trouble. I know her very well. But what is she doing in the forest?

“What the fuck are you doing there at midnight, Trouble?” I snap, finally pulling out of the girl, who whimpers, sexually frustrated.

Zoe explains, “Selena and I went to a party in the forest. She had to leave for an emergency, and now I’m stuck here. My car just stopped in the middle of nowhere.”

Damn! I don’t understand how she always ends up in these situations.

“Send me your location. I’m coming to get you.” I control the urge to scold her and reassure her because I can sense she’s scared by her voice.

But she’ll have to bear my lecture when I get there.

“Stay inside your car and lock the doors,” I instruct her before hanging up and untying the wrists of the naked girl.

“Get out. We’re done here,” I command, standing up. She stares at me with wide eyes, shocked and frustrated.

She opens her mouth to protest, but a single look from me shuts her up. She hurriedly gathers her clothes and leaves, slamming the door as I put on mine.

Zoe texts me her location, and I grab my keys and head out.

On my way to the car, I dial Zoe back. “I’m on my way. Just don’t do anything stupid until I get there.”

“Okay, but hurry, Sky. It’s creepy out here,” she says, her voice trembling slightly, making me worry for her as I settle into my car.

I can’t stand the thought of her being in danger. The forest at night is no place for anyone, especially not for someone as reckless as her.

“Stay calm, Zoe. I’ll be there soon. Just stay in your car.” I assure her, starting my car and speeding toward the location she sent me.

She’s always been a magnet for trouble, and I’ve always been the one to pull her out. It’s exhausting, but she’s worth it. She’s the only one who knows the real me. I can’t explain how much she means to me.

Finally, I spot her car on the side of the road, its lights blinking. I frown as I see her standing outside of her car. I instructed her to stay inside, but she never listens to me.

Typical Zoe.

“Get inside,” I say in a stern tone, lowering the window after halting the car beside her.

“Thank you, Sky,” she mumbles as she takes the seat beside me. For the first time, she puts on her seatbelt without me having to remind her.

I don’t respond, still angry with her. Why does she always have to put herself in these situations? I start the car without glancing at her.

“Sky,” she begins after a minute of silence, “you can’t ignore me like this. It’s not my fault. It’s my car’s fault.”

I stay silent, gripping the steering wheel tighter. She can’t keep putting herself in danger. Although I’ll always protect her, what if something happens to her when I’m not around?

I glare at her and finally snap, breaking my silence. “For once, try to stay out of trouble.”

She shoots back, “You’re saying that as if I love getting into these situations.”

I ask, glancing at her, “Why the hell did you go to a party in the forest?”

“Selena insisted. I thought it would be fun,” she answers, tucking her brown curtain bangs behind her ear.

“Don’t act innocent. I know you must have forced her,” I chide her, focusing on the road.

“I didn’t, Sky. Trust me.” She looks at me, making an innocent face, and I shake my head. I know she’s just putting on an act.

“Don’t act like a stubborn kid and please start listening to me, Trouble.”

“Sky, you’re my best friend, so stop behaving like my father,” she says, her tone teasing as she tries to hide a smile.

I just can’t stay angry with her for more than a few minutes.

I stare at her with concern in my eyes. “Trouble, I care about you. You could’ve gotten yourself hurt, or worse.”

“I’m sure you’d never let anything happen to me.”

I smile at her unwavering confidence in me. “You’re lucky I care about you so much,” I mutter, shaking my head.

“Of course I am,” she teases. “After all, you came running to save me in the middle of the night when you were doing your most pleasurable thing.”

It was quite frustrating to leave like that, but nothing is more important to me than protecting Zoe.

“One day, you’ll have to pay for all this, Trouble.” I give her a fake glare.

Zoe laughs softly, “Sure, Sky. I’ll bake you a cake or something.”

A small smile tugs at the corners of my lips. “You better make it a damn good cake,” I reply, my tone softer now.

She turns on the music, and we sing our favorite songs as we drive to her place. Her presence in my life is enough to lighten my mood.

As I pull up to her apartment building, she unbuckles her seatbelt and turns to me. “Thanks, Sky. Really.”

I nod, my expression softening. “Just stay out of trouble, okay?”

She gives me a mock salute. “Yes, sir!”

Rolling my eyes, I watch her get out of the car and head into the building. Once she’s inside, I let out a sigh of relief.

Finally, I dropped her safely at her place. However, I can’t trust Zoe because she’s capable of attracting trouble, even in the safest places.

I remember the time she got locked out on her balcony. It was the middle of winter, and she stepped out to grab something when the wind slammed the door shut. She was out there for an hour, freezing, before I came to rescue her.

Then there was the incident with the fire alarm. She’d decided to try cooking a fancy dinner, which ended with her setting off the smoke alarm and the entire building having to be evacuated. I had to come over, calm her down, and assure everyone that everything was fine.

And who could forget the time she lost her keys and thought it would be a good idea to climb in through the window? She got stuck halfway through, and I had to come over to help her out.

So, I sit in the car for a while, thinking if I should stay the night on her couch just to be sure she stays safe. But then I think better of it; she’s an adult, after all, and I can’t babysit her every moment of her life.

With a deep sigh, I drive back to my place, my mind filled with thoughts of Zoe. She’s my best friend, my Trouble, and I wouldn’t trade her for anything. But sometimes, I wish she’d be a little more careful.

    Sky’s P.O.V.After picking up Zoe, I arrive at the club. She’s dressed in a white body-con dress, her straight brown hair styled perfectly, with curtain bangs framing her forehead. Her makeup is flawless. I, on the other hand, am dressed in a simple black t-shirt and jeans, feeling somewhat underdressed beside her.Zoe loves to dress up, and she knows how to turn heads. As soon as we step inside, she pulls out her phone and takes a quick selfie. Then she insists I take a few photos of her.“Okay, okay, but just a few, or we’ll be here all night.” I sigh, reluctantly pulling out my phone and snapping a few photos of her, knowing she won’t leave me until I do.***“Next month, we have a match with the Wild Flowers College team. We have to win that match, Sky.” Alex speaks, sitting beside me on the bar stool, holding a glass of drink in his hand. Zoe is sitting on my other side.Alex has always been the bad-boy type, but I know there’s more to him. Despite his tough exterior, he’s a soft

She is in trouble again, as expected.I see a guy gripping Zoe’s arm; her face twisted in distress. A wave of anger rushes over me, and I clench my fists.

He stumbles back, hitting the floor hard.Seeing my rage, he doesn’t dare to utter a word and disappears.Good for him.I turn towards Zoe, still angry. “Where the fuck is Alex, and why did you drink so much?” I snap, but as I notice her eyes—red and filled wi

You should have gone home with Alex.”“I know, but it was too early to go home, Sky.”And I don’t like to go there when there’s no one waiting for me. My heart aches to see the empty apartment.He already knows the reason, so I don’t have to explain. His expression softens even more. “You should’ve called me.”“I didn’t want to disturb you.”“You’re important to me, Trouble. You can never disturb me.”I know I’m important to him, but I don’t like to bother him with my problems all the time.“But you have your own life,

    Sky’s P.O.V.“What happened to your leg?” I ask Zoe as I take a seat beside her on the desk in the classroom and notice a deep red mark on her shin.“I slipped in the bathroom,” she replies casually, taking a book from her bag.“When? Are you alright?” I freak out, concerned.“I’m fine, Sky. Don’t worry.” She reassures me, glancing at me.Before I can ask more questions, Selena enters the classroom and walks over to us. “Thanks for last night, Zoe.” She glances at Zoe’s leg. “I’m sorry you got injured because of me.”I stare at them, baffled. “What happened last night?”As Selena tells me how Zoe confronted the guy for her, Zoe hides her face behind her hand.That bastard. I’m not going to let him get away with hurting my best friend. He’s going to face my wrath.And what can I say about my dear Zoe? First, she puts herself in danger instead of asking for my help, and then she lies to me.God! This girl. She’s going to drive me crazy.After getting the guy’s details from Selena, I lea

I need to take a shower.I hurl my keys onto the kitchen counter and head straight to my bedroom, hoping a hot shower will clear my mind. But even under the warm water, I can’t stop thinking about her—my best friend, the girl I’ve always protected, the girl I’ve never seen in that way.I groan, frustrated with myself. “Get a grip, Sky. She’s your best friend, not some fantasy.” But my body doesn’t listen. My mind is filled with images of her, and it’s making me hard.Damn! I shouldn’t have seen her like that. It’s wrong. I can’t lust after my best friend. If Zoe ever finds out, I can’t imagine how she’ll react.No. No. She can never know. It would ruin our friendship. I can’t

Before I could ask anything, one of them hit me with the end of a gun on my forehead, and I blacked out instantly.I struggle to sit up, my hands trembling in fear. The air is damp and musty, and I can hear the distant sound of water dripping. I can't see much, but I can feel the cold, hard floor beneath me. I'm afraid. The darkness around me is terrifying.Why would anyone do this to me? Who are these men? What do they want? I don't even know anybody in Ibiza.I walk over to the door, my heart pounding in my chest. I press my ear against it, trying to hear any sounds from the other side, but all I get is silence.The fear is making my entire body shiver, but I know I have to find a way out and stay strong, even though I don't

Her phone has been switched off since she left, and when we traced her number, the last location it showed was our penthouse.She didn't just leave me; she left everything behind to save me. Her studies, her apartment, her friends—everything she built for herself. It's like she disappeared into thin air.The doctors still weren't ready to discharge me, but I begged them.

I want to be with her," I express my concern to Alex. It's been twenty hours since Selena told me that Zoe left the penthouse after locking her in. I couldn't believe my ears when I heard this.When Selena told me that Zoe wasn't in the right state of mind and was constantly blaming herself for my condition, I wished I could be there with her to explain that she shouldn't run away like this.

"Trouble, we had a deal to split this last piece," I recall him saying. I replied, "I don't remember any such deal."
