A MOMENT OF REFLECTION The room was dim, only a faint glow from a single lamp casting long shadows across the walls. The scent of leather and Lysander’s expensive cologne hung in the air, but none of it eased the tension sitting between them. Kylie sat stiffly, arms crossed, her jaw tight. She could feel Lysander's eyes on her, but she refused to meet his gaze. Lysander, leaning back in his chair, looked way too relaxed for her liking. His smirk was infuriating.“Other things?” He started, voice laced with amusement. “What kind of other things we talkin’ about, huh?” He cocked an eyebrow, the tease barely masking his smugness.Kylie rolled her eyes. “This is useless,” she snapped, turning her face away from him, trying to create some distance. Her fingers curled into tight fists, nails digging into her palms to keep herself from launching across the room and wiping that smirk off his face.“Useless, huh?” Lysander chuckled, the sound low and rough. “Nah, sweetheart. I’d say we’re ju
FROM DARKNESS TO DAWN "I’m dead tired. It’s way past late,” Kylie muttered, her voice low as she turned on her side, away from Lysander. The cool silk of the sheets felt like a relief against the heat that had built up between them throughout the evening, though not in the way Lysander had wanted. “Late?” Lysander scoffed, his voice cutting through the room like a knife. He wasn’t about to let this drop. His hand found her waist, lightly at first, but there was a firmness beneath it, like a guy who wasn’t used to being denied. “C’mon, you ain’t like other girls who get to pick and choose who they lose it to. I’m your husband.”Kylie’s body tensed beneath his touch, but she stayed silent, her heart pounding in her chest. Lysander’s grip tightened ever so slightly, his voice dropping as if the raw honesty in his next words would make a difference. “You scared I’m gonna be rough with you because of what you saw today?” His lips twisted into a smirk, the arrogance of his next sentence
THE GYM: SPAR AND SPARK I leaned against the wall of the penthouse, my heart racing with a mix of excitement and nerves. Lysander stood there, arms crossed, looking like he just walked off a runway. I shot him a challenging look. “So, you really think you can teach me to throw a punch, or are you just gonna stand there looking pretty?”He smirked, his dark eyes sparkling with mischief. “Pretty? Nah, I’m more of a ‘drop-dead gorgeous’ type, but I get your point.” Then, his expression turned serious. “Thinking about using them against me?”I shrugged, determination bubbling up inside me. “As if I could ever beat you in a fair fight.”“I don’t fight fair,” he shot back, his grin wicked.I rolled my eyes, but a smirk tugged at my lips. “Okay, so will you teach me?”“I want to teach you a lot of things,” he replied, his fingers tightening on my knee, sending a thrill through me. “Like what? How to look good in a tank top?” I teased.“Hey, you already nailed that,” he said, his eyes spark
A LIFE OF BLOOD, DARKNESS AND VIOLENCE The soft rays of sunlight filtered through the half-drawn curtains, casting a golden glow over the room. The bed felt vast and cold without Lysander beside me. It wasn’t the first time I’d woken up to find myself alone, but the pang of disappointment hit just as hard every time.He didn’t wake me up... again. I sighed, rubbing the remnants of sleep from my eyes, trying to shake the loneliness that lingered in the air.I stretched across the sheets, my fingers brushing the cool, empty space where Lysander should have been. A small knot formed in my stomach, the kind that came from knowing things weren’t normal between us. Not when his world was filled with darkness. The sound of footsteps interrupted my thoughts, and I glanced toward the door. Lysander stood there, dressed in all black, his chest holsters filled with weapons. His presence was both comforting and foreboding — he was here, but I knew he wouldn’t stay long.“Are you leaving already
SEDUCTIVE NIGHT: TENSION AND TEMPTATION Lysander's hand grazed mine as I gasped, the barest of touches, but it might as well have been a lightning bolt. I inhaled sharply, feeling the jolt spread through me, warming my skin and coiling low in my stomach. It wasn't very comfortable, how my body reacted to him. My mind was screaming, "Pull back, Kylie. This isn’t you." I said to myself. But my body was already betraying me, heat pooling between my legs as I squirmed, hoping he wouldn’t notice.Of course, he did notice my unsteadiness.“You’re squirming,” he murmured, his voice low and smooth, like a secret only meant for me. The teasing glint in his eyes did nothing to mask the intensity behind them. He was studying me, peeling back the layers of my resolve with every slow breath, every flick of his gaze.My thoughts tangled as I tried to process what was happening. Does he know? Can he feel it? The idea of him knowing how he was affecting me sent another wave of shame up my neck. I av
INTIMATE AND LUSTFUL MOMENTS I woke up on Lysander’s chest, it’s morning in New York the skyline pitched in grey. I felt heat reach my blossoms, drawing it's source to his body part I had slid to during the ravenous night. My breast was pressed hard to his hot skin with his stuff length against my legs even now. I lifted my head trying to peer at the lion of my night, Lysander. His eyes were closed, so peaceful in sleep, it was hard to belief that the same face had harbored so much violence and darkness last night.Feeling curious I tried checking up the dragon that rocked my clits, never seen an erection before but I'm worried of waking Lysander for it. After his utterances last night, I really didn’t want to risk him losing control. Pushing myself to peek over my shoulder at Lysander’s boner, but the position I found myself only makes it so that I have to break my bones to even try.A sudden buzz from the nightstand got me attracted as Lysander sat up so fast I squeaked in response.
KYLIE'S REQUEST, LYSANDER'S OFFER...I waited in our penthouse, the room dim, shadows creeping along the walls as I sat alone. The city lights flickered through the windows, but they felt distant, just like him. Lysander was late, and with every passing minute, a new thread of doubt wound tighter in my chest.When he finally walked in, I held my breath, watching him as he crossed the room with that silent, unreadable look. There was a weight between us, something unspoken but heavy, hanging in the air. I swallowed, feeling my heart thump in my chest. I had to ask, even if the answer broke me."How did she react when you told her you couldn’t see her anymore?" I asked about Grace, trying to keep my voice steady. The words were thin, almost fragile, as they left my mouth. My fingers twisted together, cold despite the warmth of the room.Lysander stood still, his silence drawing a knot in my stomach. Finally, he stepped close, his hand reaching for my chin, his fingers firm but gentle. H
HAS LYSANDER WON KYLIE'S TRUST?I lay in bed, the cool sheets against my skin as I pulled them up, feeling vulnerable. The room was dim, shadows stretching along the walls, and I could just make out Lysander’s figure standing beside me. His gaze was unreadable, watching me in a way that made my heart race. Then he stepped closer, his presence almost overwhelming in the quiet room.“Are you cold?” His voice was soft, almost a murmur, but it sent a shiver through me. He reached out, his warm hands moving up and down my arms, igniting goosebumps despite my nerves. The room felt colder than ever in my exposed state, and I tried to stop the tremble that slipped through my body.As he started undressing, a knot of anxiety tightened in my stomach. I had a feeling of what he wanted tonight, and a wave of panic rose in me. My heartbeat quickened, and I pressed my legs together, instinctively drawing them closer. He noticed, of course, and his expression softened slightly, though there was a tr
