After what felt like an eternity, the car stopped. The trunk was opened shortly, revealing blue sky. His silver eyes twinkled with something as they landed on her. "How did you like the adventure?" he asked amused, as he undid the chains, making sure not to hurt her. Sera was beyond confused and frightened to answer. She shot him an accusatory glare which only made him chuckle. He picked her up and set her down on the pavement. Her alarmed eyes darted around, searching for an explanation, any sign that could tell what was coming next. He removed the tape and pecked her dry lips. "Your every second with me will be just as unforgettable.," he murmured against her lips. Then as if it were the most natural thing in the world, he reached up to smoothen her tousled hair. "Go inside and pick whatever you want," he suggested while gently running his fingers through her hair. She glanced at the store they were standing in front of. Her eyes turned wide in disbelief. It was a store for d
His hand landed on her thigh with a possessive grip, rooting her in place. His fingers pressed in, squeezing her fabric-clad thigh as if staking his claim. Sera released a shaky breath, gazing at his rings-clad hand gripping her thigh. The girl snuck a glance at him. His eyes were locked ahead on the road, his face unreadable but the subtle twitches of his jaw betrayed the anger simmering beneath the surface. He was still mad. "What?" he asked suddenly, startling her. She quickly looked away. "Nothing," she murmured, lowering her gaze to his hand on her thigh. She wanted him to take his hand away. "I know something's on your mind," he pressed, glancing briefly her way before refocusing on the road. "Out with it," he said, pinching her flesh. His commanding tone brooked no refusal. She hesitated for a moment before speaking. "Why didn't you let them....." she paused briefly before continuing, "Search me?" His vehement opposition to the search had confused her as well. He tu
She resisted, a whimper ripped from her throat, but there was nothing stopping her tormentor. He eagerly tore the piece off her. There was a sense of urgency in his touch, an unbearable need to see all of her. The faint thud of her bra hitting the floor echoed in the quiet room, causing her heart to race faster. Her chin remained tucked to her chest, her eyes downcast as he spun her around. The scorching heat of his gaze felt unbearable as he shamelessly checked her out. Beyond embarrassed, she raised her hands to cover herself but before she could, he caught them mid-motion, unwilling to let her obstruct his view. He had beheld countless breathtaking sights but none had ever stolen his breath or sent his heart racing like this. He was hypnotized. He released her hands, eager to explore every inch of her."My mark suits you," he murmured, pressing his thumb against the old bruise on her neck. She lifted her lashes to look at him. Tears traced down her cheeks upon seeing the burnin
Her shift had ended, but before heading home, she went up to the terrace to spend some time alone. The golden hues of the sunset held her gaze when, a few minutes later, Giovanni arrived. "So are you coming to the excursion?" Giovanni asked, tilting his head. The curiosity in his eyes suggested he truly cared for the answer. "I am not sure," she replied, her voice quiet. A distant look was in her eyes as she stared far off. "You should come if you ask me. The old folks here specifically asked for your name on the list. They're really eager for you to join," he revealed, looking down at her with a gentle smile. She looked over at him. "And how do you know that?" she questioned, her eye narrowing slightly in doubt. She was convinced he was lying. Her presence and absence didn't matter to anyone. No matter how hard she tried, she was always the one left in the background. "I made the list. Your name was the first one they asked me to add," he answered, shrugging. She was surprised t
He took her to the rooftop, the most posh part of the restaurant. They were given a quiet cabin that overlooked the entire city. She felt her heart stutter as she took in the view. It was beyond stunning. "What we are going to have?" he asked, pulling her attention to him. "Huh?" she asked, having missed his words. He pointed towards the menu. "I am not hungry," she replied. With this guy, she wasn't sure. Who knows, if she somehow irritated him, he might just make her pay as some kind of twisted punishment. The dishes here cost way more than her monthly savings. "No need to panic. I won't make you pay," he stated with a smirk. Surprise flickered in her eyes as she blinked at him, wondering if she had spoken without her knowledge. "Now, pick up the menu and choose for us," he instructed, eager to get over with the task. "What do you want?" she asked, going through the menu. "Surprise me," he replied, his gentle eyes steady on her. She glanced up at him briefly before returnin
He had acted all sigma in front of her, but only he knew the torment within. His bowel system hadn't stopped doing acrobats since the moment he consumed that infernal dish. It was beyond him as to how did she even conceive such a diabolical idea. Vixen. That's some way to torture someone- no weapon needed, just the dish is enough. He stepped out of the bathroom holding his stomach, worn out. He had spent the whole night shuffling in and out of the bathroom, not getting even a wink of sleep.None who wronged him had lived to see another day. Those who so much as scratched him carried scars far deeper in return. His vengeance burned hotter than the flames of hell itself. And yet.... she was alive. He suffered yet she lived. He had no idea what was happening to him. Why was he being so lenient with the girl who had rejected him so blatantly? A profound mix of hurt and anger had crashed through him. The sting of rejection still lingered, sharpening in quiet moments. He didn't forget the d
His hand on her thigh burned like a brand, searing her skin. She squirmed in her seat, silently willing him to remove it. But since when did he care about her comfort? The weight of his palm pressed down on her thigh, squeezing her flesh with a teasing cruelty. It was all a game for him but for her, it was pure torture. He believed he owned her, his treatment of her stank of entitlement. Her suffering was his pleasure. As if bullying her wasn't enough, he now had ventured into uncharted territory, touching and kissing her whenever he felt like. She clenched her eyes shut for a brief moment, before turning towards the window and watching the world passing by. She had no clue where he was taking her. She asked him several times but no answer came from his end. The road stretched endlessly ahead, the traffic thinning as he kept driving on. Unease churning deep in her belly. She stole a glance at him. His gaze locked firmly on the road, his features tight as if going through some inner t
As if having sensed his anger, the world around them fell into complete stillness. The birds stopped singing, the leaves ceased their rustling, and even the air seemed to hold its breath. All she could hear was the faint rush of the stream in the short distance and her pounding heartbeat. She caught the annoyance filling his features before he pulled away and sat up, his shoulders locked with growing tension. A flicker of unease stirred within her as she mimicked his action. His face was turned away from her."Get up. We are leaving," he muttered irritably before getting up. She quietly got to her feet.Without sparing her so much as a glance, he began walking towards the gate. Sera exhaled a small sigh. She knew he wouldn't agree. He was a cruel, heartless monster. Expecting humanity from him was akin to expecting warmth from ice. It's against his nature.She reluctantly sat down in the passenger seat, dread twisting in her guts. She feared him more when he stayed quiet instead of l
Nate knew the involvement of cops would expose him to his dad. He couldn't risk that. He also knew the owner was trying to rip them off. He had targeted Sera on purpose to wring them out. He was in a vulnerable position right now; one wrong move, and he would lose her forever. Swallowing back his anger, he decided to play along for now. Once they were done hiding, he’d reduce this place to ashes, with its smug owner trapped inside."How much?" Nate asked, opening his eyes, hand slipping into his pocket to retrieve the wallet. "No. Don't pay him. He is ripping us off..." she insisted earnestly before asking in frustration," do you not trust me?" Nate gazed down at her, his features softening.His fingers brushed her cheek as he said, "I know, baby. I know you've done nothing wrong. I trust you and you also please, trust me. This scumbag thinks he is ripping us off.." then his gaze cut to the owner, sharpening into something lethal, "But he has no idea what's coming for him.""10 grand
The diner was far from classy. The dirty rugs, red dim lights, rickety tables, and cheap aprons on the staff made it abundantly clear. His nose twitched with disapproval as a greasy scent of frying food hit him. There was a small window behind the counter, allowing glimpses of the kitchen. One could see sweaty "chefs" tossing noodles in the air right from the entrance. Cheap and disgusting. This place was giving him the ick. He looked over at Sera, expecting the same reaction from her. But she didn't seem the least bit bothered, much less disgusted."This place looks like straight from hell," Nate murmured, eyeing the grimy interior in disapproval before his gaze settled on a tower of glasses stationed in the center— The only aesthetic this place owned. Despite the awful ambiance, the diner boasted a good number of visitors. "You would know," Sera muttered under her breath, but he heard. "What did you just say?" he asked, an amused smirk playing at the corner of his mouth as he led
Her eyes glazed over, her breath hitching softly as a flush of color warmed her cheeks. She couldn't think, could only feel— his manhood filling her inside. Reaching behind, he gripped her ass with as sense of entitlement. "You will never lock the bathroom again," She felt him easing out while spreading her ass apart. His hot breath caressed her quivering lips as he added possessively, "Will never hide from me," Then, he slammed back in, causing her to convulse against him. He was too much. She squeezed her eyes, breaking their eye contact. His eyes locked onto her with a fierce, claiming intensity, watching as her breath faltered in soft, uneven gasps. A hint of approval lit up his eyes as her walls softened around him. He choked her harder, causing her eyes to snap open. "Look at you," he murmured darkly, "taking all of me like you were made for it. Like you were made for me." This was the truth. She was meant to be his right from the beginning. He fucked her raw and intense whil
"Your dad has set the hounds loose.." Rio faltered mid-sentence, momentarily distracted by the scratches on his neck before quickly recollecting himself and adding, "You need to be very careful."Nate wasn't surprised. He had no doubt his dad had activated every contact by now, pulled every string to hunt him down and 'rescue' Sera. But he overlooked one crucial detail. Nate was his blood and flesh. His dad could tear apart the sky, dig the earth down to its core, but he still wouldn't be able to find him. And as for snatching Sera from him? Not in this fucking lifetime. "It's a good thing they don't know about me or else...." he trailed off as Nate turned his gaze upon me. "Or else? You would have snitched on me?" he questioned, voice calm but cutting."What? Of course, not. I just meant..you know, things would have gotten messy. I would never betray you," Rio clarified, flashing him a nervous smile to ease the tension. He wasn't his friend or acquaintance. He was a lower-class gr
Like a beast starved for centuries, he mounted her through the night and ravaged her fragile body with no mercy. She gasped, screamed, pleaded, but he didn't relent; he continued to ruin her. His intensity was beyond her physical capacity. His bull strength rendered her vulnerable. She could do nothing but endure as he tossed her around on the ebb and flow of his desire. She woke up to a sore body and a hurting soul. Every inch of her ached as if run over by a truck. She shifted, only to feel a sharp pain shoot through her core, making her whimper. The movement caused a wisp of cloudy white cum to slip out of her body. The sheet beneath her was sticky and wet with their mixed juices and blood, an embarrassing reminder of her ruination.The sun poured in througswamh the window, bathing everything in golden light. They had slept in.Her gaze drifted to his arm, still locked around her waist. Flashes of the night before stung her eyes, his fingers buried deep inside, exploring her most
His heart had never raced so maddeningly before. Never until this moment, one building into the night he had ached for so long. Only he knew how much he had yearned for this night. The silence between them sizzled with unspoken promises, broken occasionally by her breathless gasps. He devoured her mouth, stealing all the moisture while his hands caressed her sides with a hint of urgency.He felt her trembling in his arms. She wasn't the only one nervous; he was, too. He had never craved intimacy, never touched a girl with wanton desires until her. His perversion began with and ended on her. And tonight, he wasn't going to lock it in. Tonight, he'd let it all out and claim her as his. So small, yet she fit so perfectly in his arms, as if she was meant for them. He guided her down on the mattress, his fingers reaching for the lace knotted on front. He had purposefully bought her dresses that were easy to remove when needed. With one gentle tug, the laces came undone, revealing two tende
He returned to their room, carrying a tray of sandwiches. This time, he wasn't leaving until she’d eaten. Water hitting the tile echoed from behind the bathroom door. She was still in the shower. Setting down the tray, he scanned their room. The servant quarters at his estate looked way better than this pathetic excuse of an apartment. He knew that because every Christmas Eve, his mother took them to the servants’ quarters to hand out gifts. A small gesture of gratitude she insisted on. The only merit this building held was its anonymity. He waited and waited, but when she didn't open the door, worry began to take root. He got up and crossed the room with quick strides. "Princess?" he called, knocking at the door, but no reply came. The shower was still on; he could hear it. "Open the door, princess," he demanded, knocking harder, his worry edging into urgency. The lack of response from her side was making him restless. He retreated and kicked the door. A few more times and the doo
He walked in, picked out what he liked without glancing at the price tags, and headed straight for billing.Earning money is a real hassle if you don't have a degree and are in hiding. Nate slid the mask onto his face and strode down the narrow lane towards the ring where his opponent waited. At the end of it, the underground buzzed with his opponent's name, looked like the motherfucker was popular. Good, he didn't like easy anyway. Rio had brought him here. Since they were lying low for a while, they needed money to survive. Rio had offered to help, but Nate had declined. He had never let anyone pay for him. Maybe it was his pride or his obsession with staying in control, but that's how it was. Owning others wasn't his thing. And like hell, he would feed Sera with other man's money. He was her sole provider—everything from her clothes to food would come from his pocket. After Nate refused the financial help, Rio showed him this place. Here, he could both train and fight. The perfect
He picked up her dad and drove a fist into his stomach, making him double over. Sera and Mary screamed, begging him to stop, but Nate had just started. If she thought she had seen his worst, she couldn't have been more wrong. She underestimated him, took his threat as empty words— what a grave mistake to make. He swung his fist to land another deadly blow when Sera crumbled at his feet."Please, stop. He'll die, please," she clutched his leg, weeping inconsolably. His fist paused mid-air before he glanced down at her. She was trembling like a leaf, scared to her core. Bending, he wrapped her locks around his tightly clenched fist and hauled her to her feet. She gritted her teeth, enduring the pain searing her scalp."So protective of your family, huh," Nate commented, his voice carrying a dark, mocking edge. "But your pleadings and begging are not going to save them now.." his voice climbed a notch as he added, "Unless, of course, your 'family' decides to give me what I want. Then, m
