Mrs Steele's Pov

"Mother," my sons Hunter and Hayden greeted me as they stepped into our home after what felt like an eternity.

Glancing past them, I noticed Lily was conspicuously absent, igniting a spark of annoyance within me. Why wasn't she with them?

"Where is Lily?" I inquired, closing the door behind them.

"She's not coming," Hunter responded, while the two of them exchanged greetings with their father.

"And why isn't she? Why did you two come alone?" Despite the warmth I felt at seeing my sons, tonight was not the night for such joy.

"We've encountered a bit of a problem," Hayden explained.

"What problem? Since the time you two took over the company, you've never faced any issues or required assistance. So, what on earth could you possibly be dealing with?" My curiosity mingled with a hint of concern as I sought to understand the nature of their predicament.

"Lily's mom has vowed to stop us from dating her daughter. It's a problem because Lily listens to her, and she may influ

    I scrolled through Netflix, searching for a good movie to distract myself after a long and emotionally taxing conversation with my mom about quitting my job and returning home, I couldn't shake the weight of uncertainty lingering in the air.My mother had mentioned receiving fancy gifts from the twins, and while I knew her well enough to anticipate her acceptance of their gestures, I also sensed her reluctance to entertain their offers.Dillon lingered in the back of my mind; his simmering anger palpable even from a distance. I couldn't help but feel guilty for asking him to leave instead of allowing the twins to depart.Sleep eluded me, the events of the past few days replaying in my mind like a broken record. From the tender kisses shared with the twins to the jarring car accident, I found myself unable to move past the whirlwind of emotions swirling within me.

  • Forbidden Thirst   33. Back to my senses.

    My lips crashed against Hayden's, a surge of intoxicating sensation washed over me, momentarily drowning out the haze of alcohol clouding my judgment. Despite my inebriated state, the kiss felt oddly sweet and intriguing, stirring a desire within me that I couldn't quite comprehend. In that moment, all I knew was that I wanted more, to delve deeper into the tantalizing unknown.But before I could fully immerse myself in the intoxicating embrace, Hayden gently pulled away, his actions eliciting a twinge of disappointment from my body's fervent desire."As much as I'd like to finally have you under me, begging for me to take you, you're drunk, and I will not take advantage of you," Hayden's words resonated with a sense of sincerity that both comforted and frustrated me."I-I'm not drunk," I protested weakly, though the slurred words betrayed my inebriated state.Hayden guided me to sit down on the sofa, his touch grounding me in a moment of unexpected tenderness. Meanwhile, Hunter retur

  • Forbidden Thirst   34. What was she doing to me?

    Hayden's povThe scalding water did little to douse the raging fire Lily had stoked within me. I gripped my throbbing length, a guttural groan rumbling from my chest as I slowly pumped my fist.Images of her assaulted my mind - lips parted enticingly, those pert little breasts laid bare just for Hunter and me. The sight of her creamy globes had aroused an insatiable hunger, a primal need to claim every inch of her body as mine.Squeezing my eyes shut, I imagined her underneath me, writhing and whimpering as I trailed scorching kisses down her slender neck. I could practically taste the sweetness of her dewy skin on my tongue. My pace quickened as I fantasized about burying myself deep between her milky thighs, feeling her velvet heat sheathe me in delicious ecstasy.A rumbling growl vibrated through my chest just picturing it, my need for her so fierce it was maddening. That tantalizing glimpse of her body was like a drug, sending shock waves of lust crashing through my veins. Every f

    I was on my way to the office when I saw two of the most beautiful women I'd ever encountered being escorted to my boss's office, followed closely by two other businessmen. Their presence immediately piqued my curiosity and left me wondering about the nature of their visit.A moment later, Olivia stormed into my office, her face flushed with anger. "If it wasn't bad enough that I have to deal with you, now I'm going to have to get rid of them," she fumed."What are you talking about?" I asked, my curiosity piqued."The models! Don't you know the twins sponsor Miss New York's beauty pageant every year? And every year, I have to deal with a few of them who are willing to go the extra mile to discredit me and everything I've worked so hard to achieve," Olivia seethed, her glare directed at some invisible target.I couldn't fathom how she managed to cause so much turmoil without the twins noticing. Olivia seemed like a complete maniac, consumed by her own paranoia and vendettas."I'm sure

    After knocking on Hunter's office door twice, I stepped inside. Hunter and Hayden were gathered around the desk, engaged in conversation with two men and one of the women, while the other woman strolled around the room, admiring the view.The woman pacing by the window had long, black hair and slim, tanned skin that shone with an almost ethereal quality. Her charisma was undeniable, and it was clear she was a strong contender for Miss New York's beauty pageant."This room is still as beautiful as it was the last time I was here. I see you haven't changed a thing," she remarked with a smile. Despite my usual confidence, her presence made me feel a twinge of insecurity."Sorry for interrupting, Tessa asked me to deliver these files to you," I addressed both my bosses.Before I could leave the office, one of the contestants who was walking around the office stopped me."Sorry for troubling you, but could you get me a glass of water? My throat's beginning to get a bit dry," she asked.I l

    "Why did you refuse to accept my resignation letter?" I asked, feeling a surge of frustration that I had to engage with them again, a conversation I had never intended to have."That's because you're not going anywhere, Lily," Hayden's words shocked me to the core."W-what did you just say?" I stuttered, unable to believe what I had just heard."You heard exactly what I said," Hunter replied, his tone firm and unwavering."If it is my wish to leave your company, then you two cannot stop me. I'm a grown woman who does not need anyone to tell me what I can and cannot do. If you had an ounce of respect, you would accept my wishes," I glared at Hunter, feeling Hayden's presence behind me.As I was about to move, his hand snaked around my waist, pulling me back against his firm chest. His scent enveloped me, sending me into a sweet euphoria, making it hard for me to resist his grasp.All I wanted was to stay in his arms, but I managed to pull away, denying the temptation."You like that, d

    2 weeks laterI stared at my bank account, tears threatened to spill from my eyes. I had never seen this much money in my account before. With a mix of disbelief and gratitude, I rushed to the Eastwood student loan bank, only to be informed that all my outstanding debts had been paid off by Steele Global Bank.Racing back home, a whirlwind of questions swirled in my mind. Why had my bosses paid off my student loan without informing me? How did they even know about it in the first place?Knocking on Hunter's door yielded no response, so I made my way to Hayden's apartment. Hunter must have been out.Moments later, Hayden emerged, dressed casually in shorts and an open robe. Despite my efforts to remain composed, I couldn't help but notice how effortlessly attractive he looked. Mentally scolding myself, I focused on the matter at hand."Uh, how may I help you, Miss Reeves?" Hayden's tone lacked the warmth and familiarity it once held, a stark contrast to the way he used to address me."

    Dillon noticed my distraction and followed my gaze, concern etched his features, a flicker of worry crossing his eyes as he searched my face for answers."What is it, Lily?" he asked, his voice tinged with worry, his concern evident in the gentle furrow of his brow."It's nothing," I lied, the weight of what I had just witnessed settling heavily on my shoulders, a knot of deceit tightening in my chest as I tried to shield him from the truth."It's your boss, isn't it?" Dillon's voice tightened, his fists clenching at his sides."If he's making you feel uncomfortable, I can go over there and talk to him for you," he offered, already rising from his seat. But I quickly reached out, pulling him back down to prevent any unnecessary confrontation."There's no need for that," I assured him, though my eyes remained fixed on Hunter and Victoria as they exited the restaurant."They're gone now, so you can relax," Dillon reassured me, but my mind was consumed by thoughts of Hunter.Throughout t

    “Hunter, baby…” Before Victoria could continue, Hunter cut her off sharply.“In my office. Now,” he said, his voice brooking no argument.I shot her a glare for the pet name she used for Hunter and then directed the same fierce look at Hunter for taking this murderer into his office. Hayden, meanwhile, glared at me as if I were somehow at fault, even though I had done nothing wrong.Once Victoria had left with the two men trailing behind her, I exhaled in relief, realizing I hadn’t even noticed I’d been holding my breath. The tension in the room seemed to dissipate, leaving me feeling slightly less anxious.“You alright?” Olivia’s question startled me.I turned to her, surprised by the concern in her eyes. “Don’t give me that look.

    Lily's POV..............I wasn’t supposed to be at work today. The twins had generously given me some time off to cope with the loss of my best friend, Dillon. I should have taken the time to grieve in peace, but the ache inside me felt too overwhelming. I couldn’t stand being at home, consumed by my own sorrow. I needed to do something—anything—to distract myself and find some semblance of normalcy. And for me, that meant being around the twins.I knew they would be displeased to see me at the office, but I couldn’t help it. The space felt oddly comforting, even as it reminded me of Dillon. The twins had a full schedule today, but they were dealing with a minor matter first. I knew they would be back soon, and I was determined to make myself useful in the meantime.As I busied myself with paperwork, trying to focus on the tasks at hand, the office door creaked open. I looked up, expecting one of the staff or perhaps even one of the twins, but instead, Victoria’s voice sliced through

However, our team is diligently working on it. As soon as there’s an update, I’ll ensure you’re the first to know.”Hunter’s brow furrowed as he leaned forward, his expression troubled. “Do you think Victoria might be involved, or perhaps his girlfriend? Or could it be someone entirely unknown to us?”The gravity of the situation weighed heavily on them, especially with Lily now deep in depression over the shocking news. It was clear that, despite their own thirst for revenge for what Dillion had done to Li

    "Thank god you decided to come," I said happily to my mother as we stepped into the Steele residence for Thanksgiving dinner. The warmth and elegance of the home greeted us instantly, with the scent of roasted turkey and freshly baked pies wafting through the air."I only did it because I don't want to lose my one and only daughter. I want to be a part of your life," she replied, her voice softening. I gave her a tight hug, feeling a sense of relief wash over me."Hello, Miss Montgomery," both Hunter and Hayden greeted my mom with a polite hug. At least she showed them courtesy, even if it was with a bit of reservation.Mr. and Mrs. Steele approached us with welcoming smiles, their holiday spirit evident. "Thank you for having me and my daughter here today. Your home looks very beautiful," my mom commented, handing them a thoughtfully wrapped housewarming gift."Thank you, and Lily has been coming here for a few days now to have dinner with us, so she's n

    Lily's POV.........."As it is that we are together now, I don't think asking you two personal questions is wrong?" I asked, laying between the twins. The cool sheets against my skin were a stark contrast to the warmth of their bodies, cocooning me in an odd sense of security despite the burning questions in my mind."Ask away, baby girl," Hunter said, peppering kisses to my cheeks. His lips were soft and tender, a stark contrast to the raw intensity of our earlier encounters. I knew they were in the mood for another round, but after a total of five rounds, my body was fatigued, and they knew this.Taking a deep breath, I braced myself for the answer. "The other day when I saw Victoria entering your room, why did you make her? Are you still in love with her?" I asked Hunter, the doubt that had been gnawing at my mind finally spilling out.Hunter pulled me closely into his arms, his grip firm yet comforting. He looked me straight in the eyes, his gaze unwavering. "The woman you saw the

    Third party POV"I think what you've suspected, madam, is true. The twins do seem to be very overprotective of their assistant, Lily," the man said, his voice low and cautious as he stood before the woman seated at her grand mahogany desk, elegantly smoking a cigarette.The woman, her eyes narrowing with irritation, blew out a plume of smoke. "What have you found out exactly?" she demanded, her tone sharp and edged with impatience.The man shifted uneasily on his feet, aware of the woman's volatile temper. "Well, for one, they've made sure she stays at the elite royal condominium where they live. Although I'm uncertain if any other employees reside there, it's clear that only high-class millionaires and above can afford to stay there. Another thing is that she's rarely seen anywhere without the twins or their bodyguards discreetly following her," he explained, his words measured and deliberate.The woman's lips pressed into a thin line, her frustration mounting. "What else?" she snapp

    "What the fuck?" This was the first time I'd ever cursed so blatantly, but what Hunter had just said made me see they were going crazy.Hearing my words, Hunter and Hayden began to chuckle, their deep voices resonating in the room. Hunter then held my chin in his hand, tilting my head forward. "Such grievous words from that pretty little mouth of yours, Lily," he murmured, his eyes dark with amusement."Where did you learn that from?" I moaned as Hayden questioned, his finger moving in and out of my pussy with expert precision."Y-you," I blushed, watching as he brought his finger to his mouth, licking it clean with a satisfied smile."Just as I thought," Hunter teased, a wicked grin spreading across his face. "I think it should be our duty to ensure those words are never uttered again." He brought his cock to my lips once more, pushing it down my throat even further as I lay on my back, feeling completely at their mercy."Yes, I think you're right, brother," Hayden agreed, his voice l

  • Forbidden Thirst   61. Decisions, Decisions.

    It was finally the day for me to make a decision on whether or not I wanted to be with my bosses. I tried finding something to preoccupy myself with but couldn't take my mind off the fact that I needed to choose very soon. The decision weighed heavily on my mind, and no matter how hard I tried to distract myself, my thoughts kept circling back to the same dilemma. My heart pounded in my chest, a constant reminder of the choice I had to make.The Thanksgiving dinner was only a few days away, and my mom still wasn't budging about not going. She wouldn't even take my calls or text me back. The silence from her was deafening, adding to the loneliness that crept up on me during these moments of indecision. I missed her, and her absence felt like a gaping hole in my life, especially now when I needed her advice the most.I was entirely now dependent on my bosses for the care and love they were continuing to show me. Even though I would have a little mishap now and then with the pesky brat V

    "There's something I want to ask you," I said to my mom, my voice trembling slightly as I struggled to maintain my composure. This caught her attention immediately, and she turned to look at me, her eyes filled with curiosity."What is it?" she asked, her gaze never leaving mine."I want you to attend Thanksgiving dinner with me and my bosses at their parents' house. They've invited me, and I've accepted it," I told her, my heart pounding in my chest as I waited for her reaction or reply."No," she said flatly."What do you mean, no? Do you intend to stay here and be alone forever?" I asked her, frustration creeping into my voice as I watched her continue to bake her sweet potato pie, seemingly unfazed by my request."So, you've finally given into them, I see," she replied, her tone laced with disapproval as she continued her work without even glancing in my direction."Mom, what are you talking about? We're just having Thanksgiving dinner together, that's all," I said, my voice risin
