ANGEL'S POV:
~Sage bear: Wtfff??? You're leaving w him??Naddie: Istg girl, have you been hypnotized?Me: Guys, calm down! I'll keep my location live at all times. And c'mon, don't be prudes now 😉Sage bear: WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO MY BEST FRIEND?Naddie: Carter left the group chat...Me: omg, Nadia. ~The second I typed off those last words on my phone, it was immediately snatched away, drawing my attention back to the man who was currently flipping everything I'd ever known about myself upside down.Just like Sage, I questioned who I was in this moment. And just like Nadia, I knew this decision would forever haunt me.Well, only if Carter finds out – which he won't cause I'll make sure of it."Eyes on me, Angel." He cooed as he softly took hold of my jaw, directing my gaze to his own. God, he was breathtaking. So handsome that I was envious.He was exactly the type of man who I had no business with, yet here I was in his sleek black car, wanting a whole lot more than I'd initially bargained. Carter's jaw would drop off the face of the earth if he knew exactly where his sweet little girlfriend was.Fudge, I feel like a monster.But it shouldn't matter, right?It was just for the night.One night to be someone else and by morning, I'd be long gone and headed to New York even before he wakes up.It would be perfect."You've zoned out again. Having second thoughts already?" The curious edge to his deep voice snapped my mind back to the present. His icy gaze remained fixated on me, like he was trying to pry into my head for a second.I blinked, shaking my head instantaneously. "No, no. I still want this."That mischievous spark returned to his eyes and his thumb on my jawline carefully grazed over my bottom lip, reawakening ripples of arousal through me.He held my stare, a ghost of a smirk shadowing his face. "Good. Come here."We were currently at the back of his black Bugatti, and at first when I'd spotted the expensive vehicle, I'd gaped like a penniless lady who'd never seen a car in her miserable life. Well, I'd definitely seen cars before – just not as intimidating as his.Even at the moment while he tugged my arm, easily lifting me off to sit over his legs in a straddle, I was still in awe at the magnificence of the interiors, clad in a midnight black and engraved in luxury.For a girl who barely had to scrap by to survive her childhood, I was burning in envy.However, none of those things seemed to matter anymore when I was pulled back, literally, by his large warm hands that wrapped themselves around my small waist, drawing me into his tight muscular body.I felt hot all over again.Without warning, his lips were on mine but this time, he seemed to take his time. He kissed me in a controlled dance of both passion and restraint, giving me enough to make my skin burn with desire but just not enough to satiate the hunger that promised to consume me.He bit down on my bottom lip teasingly, drawing them out, and I gasped out in pleasure, feeling my core tingle and a shiver run down my spine. He definitely knew what he was doing, and I hated it.I pushed myself harder against him, needing more, and even when he moved his hands painstakingly up my body, grazing over my tightened nipples, I found myself craving him twice as much. I moaned into his mouth, loving the way his groin stirred beneath me."Fuck, I want to hear that sound all that night," he whispered seductively and I swear, I lost the last of my inhibitions - all I cared about was pleasing this perfectly attractive stranger.His lips left mine and I was almost tempted to scream out in desperation but soon, they were on my neck, biting down and having his hot wet tongue suck on my sensitive spot. Oh, god."You like that?" His lips were at my ear, and I sucked in a sharp breath, driving my fingers into his hair. "You do, don't you, Angel?"I gasped out when his warm hands made their first contact with my bare skin. He had found his way up my dress and in seconds I'd barely noticed, he pulled down the top of my dress to reveal my tits that fell freely out of their covering.I didn't have the time to blush or hide from his heated gaze cause he wasted no time before his lips latched onto one of my nipples, forcing out another wild moan from within me. I tried to bite back my lips but it was impossible to do so with his tongue driving me insane by the second.Not even Carter had ever made me feel this way during our make-outs.I arched back, giving him more access to do whatever he wished."Oh, god. Please, don't stop." I whispered out, pushing my core down on the hardness of his groin. My eyes squeezed shut. I could feel my own arousal in the moistness that doubled down there by the second."Keep your eyes open for me, Angel. I want to see what I do to you." He commanded and on instinct, my eyelids flipped open.He stared up at me through dark hooded eyes, lit with lust and a maddened glint in them. An aching pool of heat surged through my skin as my heart raced. I really was royally screwed.How was I supposed to go back to my regular life after a night like this? After him? I didn't even know anything about this stranger, not even his-"Wait, what's your name?" My voice was breathy.He flicked his tongue over my nipple, his other hand on my thighs trailing higher. The man barely shifted his attention from the slow torture he was inflicting on me."Why?""Hello, I'm in your car, on your laps, doing...these things with you, and being driven to hell for all I can tell. I should know.""But you like it here. You love it."I moaned and threw my head back when his free hand captured my round tits, squeezing lightly and filling me with waves of heat from the combination of his tongue and fingers.However, before I could get drowned again in his bubble of ecstasy and sin, I fought and pulled my body slightly away from his touch, eyes levelling on his heated and lightly irritated ones."Answer me." I managed to keep my voice as firm as my locked gaze on him.He leaned back, expression hardening and a cool resolve in his gray eyes. "Fine, I'm Justin Bieber."That caught me off guard, and I had to bite my lips down to hold back from the quick burst of laughter that almost came out. His sharp eyes quickly followed their movement, then he licked his lips a second after.My heart drummed."Ha-ha, you've got jokes." I rolled my eyes playfully. "Sounds exactly like what an axe murderer might say."He tilted his head. "Maybe I am one.""I don't even find that the least funny in this situation."He laughed, vibrating deeply off his chest. My belly flipped, and I almost smiled at the genuine sound of it. He leaned closer to me, his lips lightly tracing the sides of my neck."I'm Christian." He paused, his voice growing raspy. "But only because I want to hear you moan it."Oh.The things he could so easily say, this man.Christian.My cheeks were hot. "Are you always this...""Sweet?""Blunt. Dirty.""Says the woman who'd asked me to fuck her a few minutes ago." He trailed hot kisses down collar bone, amusement dancing in his eyes when I'd caught a glimpse. "Famous last words by the way.""You offered-""Shut up."The breath left my lungs as he completed his words with a demanding kiss. I found myself trying desperately to match their intensity, the way he sucked on my tongue, the way he tugged on my bottom lip, the way my core ached for his attention down there.Well, he had to be a goddamn mind reader because in a blink, he was turning to the side and pushing my back down against the plush surface of the car seat.From above, Christian hovered over me with a devilish smirk on his face. One that turned my insides to jelly and placed my nerves on the edge. His hair was now a mess, a hint of my lipstick by the side of his mouth.His heated stare seemed to take a second to admire his handiwork, from my boobs that were hanging out with tight nipples, to my soft panting and the lust awakened in me.He seemed pleased."Gorgeous, mio caro. I want to taste you."ANGEL'S POV:"Gorgeous, mio caro. I want to taste you."My core throbbed at his words, and on instinct, I attempted to shut my thighs, partly to help release the pressure and partly to hide from him. However, Christian was faster and held my thighs apart, a silent warning in his cold eyes."Don't move an inch, and keep your eyes on me." His tone was stern.I gulped down and nodded dutifully, a delicious shiver running up my spine. Maybe it was the excitement of being unraveled by this man. Or maybe it was the fact that I'd never done this before. Never had myself placed in a position like this with another man.Sure, Carter and I used to make out all the time when he still lived in Las Vegas, but it never felt like this – never this intense, never this wild and dirty.We both had boundaries. Or rather, he did. No sex till marriage was the rule he'd set for us. And maybe some wanton part of me had always wanted it, I just never realized how much till this second.Christian's gaze never
CHRISTIAN'S POV:From the second she'd walked into my space back at the club, Angel captivated me in the most unusual way. In a way most women couldn't.Perhaps in a morbidly amusing fashion, it was how much her presence reminded me a lamb playing games in a Lion's lair, asking to be slaughtered on a whim.Perhaps it was the manner in which that tight leather dress of hers hugged out every ample curve of her body, leaving a hard imprint in my mind on just how ravishing she'd look underneath. The red of her lips. The blue innocence to her eyes. The golden locks that fell in waves down her shoulder.Or maybe, it had to be how easily she reminded me of her. How effortlessly Angel embodied that light I'd once tainted in another. Whatever it was exactly, it called out to my demons in ways I couldn't resist. In ways I knew would be our ruin.Yet, every image my mind conjured were filthy flashes of what she'd look like arched like a whore for me. Of how those full lips would feel wrapped gen
CHRISTIAN'S POV:"Christian." She cried out, her thighs trembling as I relentlessly delved my tongue into her essence, lapping up her juices with every flick, swirl and thrust.I couldn't get enough, not even if I tried.Her fingers tightened in my hair, on the verge of ripping them off their roots, pulling in a move that made me want to turn her over and sink my cock inside her almost immediately.But again, she was a virgin.I needed her as wet and relaxed as possible for my entry. Because nothing could stop me from fucking her tonight. Not even devil himself. I had never been the type of man to place another's pleasure before mine, but for a brief moment, I yearned to make Angel burn with lust.The ice had melted, leaving her entire pussy wet and dripping with both water and her sweet juices, and I stuck my tongue in her opening, pulling her further away from the counter towards my mouth.I groaned gutturally when she began to move urgently against my mouth, releasing one hand fro
ANGEL'S POV:Rule number 1 of a one-night stand; Always wake up first and sprint the hell out. Bonus points if you could do so gracefully without upsetting your bed mate.Or in this case, Christian.At the moment, his muscular arm was tightened around my waist, trapping me successfully in his web of perfectly toned flesh and tight muscles. Light rays peeked out from the corners of the window, grazing over our buck-naked bodies and highlighting the serenity that clouded his face.God, he was disastrously handsome.I sighed softly, finally giving up on my attempts to wiggle myself out of his grip. The man had proven to be immovable, like a freaking boulder or something. A rather sexy boulder who'd ingrained his compelling touch and lazy smiles in my mind.My insides tingled and heat scorched my skin as memories of being railed by Christian once again flipped my thoughts into overdrive. It was all I could see at the back of my mind - his large dick going in and out at a maddening pace
ANGEL'S POV:TWO YEARS LATER"Ma'am, the manager says that if you're going to keep sitting here, you're gonna need to order something..." The waiter glanced down at my table, judgement written all over his face. "...that's not water."My stomach squirmed and I forced out a civilized smile. One that contrasted vividly with the tension swirling within me."Well, I... Can I get a few minutes more? My date is on his way."Was he?Polished and clad in a crispy-clean uniform, I watched the young man's eyes twitch in irritation. However, just like me, he forced out a well-practiced smile."Very well, ma'am. I'll be back to take your order in 30 minutes." With that, he bowed lightly and walked back to an equally polished man standing off at the corner of the restaurant with a firm glare fixated on me.The manager, I suppose.I waved at him sweetly, which of course he didn't respond to, but he did well to shift his attention to attend to the lovely couple that just walked in, plastering an obn
ANGEL’S POV:Somehow, I always knew it’d come to this - the day my father’s insatiable desire to get into trouble would be his ruin. And mine.I wished I could say that getting a distress call like that was a first, but that would be an ugly lie. My father dined with bad luck and had long time made his bed with trouble.He had been arrested. He had been hospitalized. He had been battered and bruised and dragged the length of a football field by debt collectors.Yet, every single week, he found a more creative way of shitting both our lives.He was after all the reason I’d lost my college tuition funds, just to save his ass from getting buried alive by angry men who chewed on debtors like him for breakfast.Yes, that’s what I do. I, Angel Winchester, the miserable savior of her old man. Tirelessly. Repeatedly. Annoyingly. Even the best of saints would be fed up at this point, yet I couldn’t afford to because he was all I had left.If I lost him…My heart plunged to their depths just at
ANGEL’S POV:With her fashionable black coat worn over a short black dress and that intoxicating air of feline confidence, the woman looked like she belonged to the cover of a high-society magazine, or on the runway, strutting her long legs hidden behind those thigh-high boots.“Who…who are you? And what are you doing in my house?” My composure was back and from her unbothered stance, I suddenly felt the need to stand a little straighter, eyes hardened on hers.How the hell does she even know my name?“I heard you’d be a little feisty.” She smirked, reminding me of a wolf – deceptive and devious. “And you have no house, sweet heart. This dump belongs to the De Novo family.”My heart froze. “W-what…?”“Try not to drop your jaws, there are flies around.” She pulled the door wider. “Come in.”My thoughts doubled with a million questions and a chill ran up my spine at every possibility. Have no house? What? Who the hell was she anyway, standing in my doorway and calling me sweetheart?Irr
ANGEL’S POV:The old grandfather clock spelled doom with every heavy tick, licking away the seconds like a bomb waiting to explode. In the grave silence, every unfortunate sound and action felt amplified. Tense. Brutal.A drop of cold sweat rolled down my neck. I swallowed, yet the paralyzing ball of anxiety threatened to bruise my wildly racing heart. It echoed mercilessly, syncing naturally with the foreboding footsteps Christian took as he returned from the kitchen with a bottle of wine.He must have seized the oxygen in the room, cause in seconds of reappearing, my lungs tightened painfully and air evaded me. My insides burned, but I feared that perhaps if I breathed too loudly, he’d be reminded of my presence.Unfortunately, I was wrong. Christian already had his eyes fixed precisely on me.“I must say, Mr. Winchester, I’m impressed by your taste in wine. This might perhaps be your only redeemable quality.” The man gave off a wolfish-grin.“He deserves no redemption.” It was the
CHRISTIAN’S POV:I leaned closer, languidly meeting her gaze through darkened ones. Confusion ran deep in her eyes as she tried to piece together my next move. I leaned even closer and before she could back away, I snatched her waist, holding her down against my body. Her eyes grew wide.She opened her mouth in an attempt to protest and I smirked, but right before she could get any words out, a chaotic thud jerked both our attention to the corner it came from. A bumbling idiot had fallen right into the room, knocking down an entire column of mannequins.Christ.Cherry was fast behind him, click-fucking-clack, as she immediately pulled the man – scratch that, the boy to his feet. With the suspenders and glasses twice his fit, my guess was that he escaped adult daycare.From the new distraction, Angel slipped out of my grip and left that bloody distance between us again. Irritation scratched my surface but rather than act on it, I forced my gaze back to the two people that were now
CHRISTIAN’S POV:‘Be gentle with her,’ was all mother had said when I’d told her about Angel. Her words had been nonchalant, drifting off in a lost pattern, but from a woman who had long given up on her will to live, it was everything I needed to hear.Everything that pushed and taunted the heights of my control when it came to Angel.I ruled the pile of my darkest thoughts and restraints, yet with just one glance at the infuriating woman beside me on the car seat and I was filled with an obscene urge – one that beckoned me to break her, to rip out that maddening fire from her spine.Or at the very least, fuck it straight out of her.Blood shot down my groin and it only further provoked me that even in this moment, with my patience worn thin from her attempt to slap me, I was still so fucking hard, it ached.The thin line between my irritation and this wild desire was blurring and by the second, it proved even more difficult to know where one stopped and the other began.From the rea
ANGEL’S POV:There was a reason I never thought about Christian for two years. He was a mistake. One that consumed my mind at every waking second I spent in Carter’s arms. His icy gray eyes. Intense and haunting. That slow sexy smile he loved to wear. And of course, the blood that coated his skin when I ran.Somehow, that scene had permanently etched itself to my memory.It drove me mad with anger and disgust that I’d let myself roll in bed with a man who had a relation with my mother’s murderers, that I had tossed away my relationship with Carter just to quench a single desire that had been conceived from a stupid dare.I glared harshly at the white tiled walls of the bathroom. The cold water freely falling from the shower head did not nearly extinguish the scalding resentment that coursed through me. I scrubbed my skin with intent to bruise it.If I could go back to that night, I’d have never said yes to Nadia and Sage. Hell, I’d have slapped some senses into the naïve girl I’d been
CHRISTIAN’S POV:From a young age, 12 to be precise, I’d been taught to take no prisoners. Do what needs to be done. No remorse. No mercy. You only give up when you’ve taken your last breath, buried alongside your demons and left cold. And even then, you’d find no peace till you’ve conquered hell itself. The chess board before me was built of white and black soldiers, and just like the pieces were my soldiers, the entire board was my empire. Father had taught me that. It was a tango that needed patience and strategy; a truly deadly combination.I moved my white pawn, the weakest on the board, and couldn’t help the small curve of my lips at the surprise that flitted across Roma’s face. Reclining into the sofa and crossing my legs, I took great pleasure in watching the other man’s pensive eyes reassess his next move. And as expected, he moved his knight. A wicked grin lighted my features.“It’s not very satisfying to see my opponent smile when he’s obviously losing.” He passed me
ANGEL’S POV:If only she could shut up for one second, then maybe I might be able to hear my own thoughts.Every foreign word Astrid spat, at some point, became a verbal blur of thunderstorms and fury. In between, she’d throw an accusatory finger at me, as if reporting a bad kid to the principal for stealing from the cookie jar. I might have laughed if under a different circumstance.But it wasn’t.Twisted to a sickening extent, my heart bled to the ground, and it wasn’t like the soft pitter patters of the rain, or the small tear drops that stained my cheeks. I was completely drenched in a pool of my own despair, sinking deeper and deeper into every heartbreak, disappointment and exhaustion I’d faced in the past two years.The memories mocked me.The day I gave away my college funds to keep father out of jail. The semester I left school because I couldn’t pay my fees anymore. The days I spent tirelessly searching for a job. The unending rejections. The hell I faced trying to foot fath
