HAVEN The fire in Ben’s eyes was something I hadn’t seen in years, and my chest rose and fell sharply as he leaned in and captured my lips in a kiss. “You drive me crazy.” He said, pulling away before lifting his thumb to my lips. “The feeling’s mutual,” I whispered, stunned by the dominating w
HAVEN When his hand moved back up, I almost let out a cry as he went back, gently sliding along one side of my clit before going back down the other, touching it just enough that it was throbbing with need but not enough to give me the release I desired. “Benjamin Evans, I swear to God…” I snappe
HAVEN I should have been blushing from the looks we got when we returned downstairs, but I wasn’t. With my hand in Ben's, I was smiling bigger than ever before as he spotted our wedding planner in the lobby and pulled me to follow her to an event room. The woman had worked wonders, and I was blown
HAVEN It must have been karmic intervention, but I hadn’t figured out what we could have done that was so bad. Still, it seemed we weren’t meant to have our happily ever after. The universe and everyone in it seemed to oppose Ben and me getting married. It was too late, as he was officially min
BEN The flight home was one of the most uncomfortable plane rides I had ever been on, and I had once been trapped on a private jet with Mason and a stewardess loudly fucking in the private bedroom in the back. This made that look tame, and everyone on this flight remained seated the entire time.
HAVEN The private jet was a nice touch, and I appreciated that the airport was also private and didn’t allow any of the press on the runway. But they were waiting at home like little vultures, wanting to pick the last bit of humanity off our exhausted and empty bodies. Siri had been screaming bl
HAVEN Not for the first time since we got home, I found myself staring at Ben as he moved around the house. His tension was evident in his movements as he tried to straighten up the already clean house, and I knew something needed to change. We had to either talk about the video or relive it befor
HAVEN My hands shook as I pulled up my browser before quickly closing it and opening it in incognito as if that made any difference. The light of my phone made the already dark room around me feel like an empty void, and I squinted but kept my brightness up. I wanted to see everything. Knowledg
BEN It was odd pulling up to the house and finding there wasn’t a single paparazzi in sight. After today’s news, I expected them to be ready to break down my gate for a story, but no one was there. Instead, a blacked-out SUV sat across the street, and my stomach twisted when I realized it was pro
HAVEN I needed to get out of the house. Staying inside was driving me crazy, and I couldn’t take it anymore. My last job interview was a week ago, and while I keep applying, no one wants to hire the woman all over the tabloids with a sex tape. Our PR team managed to get it taken down, but it stil
BEN “Rangers player Benjamin Evans is today’s hot topic. Now fans were petitioning for him to be traded for his performance last season. Even I wanted him gone, and I’ve followed his career since he was being scouted.” The reporters around him laughed, and I gritted my jaw. “I know. I remember hi
HAVEN Ben’s leg bounced all through breakfast, and I couldn’t help but look over my shoulder every few seconds to the large window behind me. The way his eyes kept scanning it made me feel like someone was about to repel from the roof and crash through it at any moment, or there was a sniper some
BEN Was it weird to be shopping for engagement rings at this moment? Yes Still, I couldn’t help myself. It was the first place my mind went when I woke up this morning. If Haven was so comfortable around me and loved me so much that she was willing to let me fuck her in the ass, then I would bet s
HAVEN “Have you ever done this before?” Ben asked, and I shook my head. He closed his eyes, taking a deep breath before stepping back. “How did I get so lucky?” His question, with the sudden loss of his body heat, made me blush, and I pushed off the counter slowly. I could only assume, with him
HAVEN “Did he say anything to you?” Ben asked as we settled into our room for the night. Siri had passed out on the car ride home, and Ben made it look so easy to transfer her from the car to her bed. I had never succeeded in doing that without waking her up. “No,” I said, meeting his stressed
BEN He was so close to them... so close to my family, and there was nothing I could do but watch. “Evans! Head in the game!” Coach screamed, but I couldn’t tear my eyes away from the scene before me. Security was coming down the steps toward him, and he threw his head back laughing before walk
HAVEN I was so scared that Ben would be angry at me for going behind his back and calling his parents that I hadn’t even told him they were coming. They were staying at a hotel near the stadium and were ecstatic to meet Siri. That was my big regret with this surprise. Ben didn’t get to introduce
