Dante's POVThe music blared loudly in my ears; the club was wide awake tonight. I took another shot the burning sensation of alcohol went straight to my head.“Woah, what's happening tonight? You seem very on edge.” Kyle, my best friend said. Honestly, he was right, since I met that temptress River of a woman. I haven't been stable since.“Mind your business, Kyle.”Someone grabbed my arm, I felt her sharp nails jarring into my flesh and I nearly winced in surprise. “Hi baby, I didn't know you'd be in the club tonight.”I disentangled my hand from her grip and turned to her; it was Amanda, one of the trips I usually mess with. “Hi, I didn't know I'd be coming to the club tonight either.”She batted her fake heavy lashes at me, and from the corner of my eye, I could see Kyle roll his eyes. But what the hell I need the distraction right now.I circled her waist with my left arm, pulling her close, but almost immediately, the picture of River flashed before my eyes. But I shook it off.
River's POVIt's been a whole month since the humiliation Dante caused me. Honestly, after he humiliated me at the club in front of that plastic woman, I can't lie; my ego has not recovered, and I'm out to get him.He made me feel like I was disposable and nobody made a fool out of me, especially a man. Luckily, I got another hotshot client, and so far, so good I was nailing the case.But I still had a problem no matter the money, no matter the excitement I've tried to create for myself, including jumping off a plane. I couldn't get him off my mind, I needed him to fall for me.I want him crawling back to me begging then I'll throw it back in his face and reject him. That man thinks he can just make a fool out of me, over my dead body.My problem was genuinely getting access to the man, I mean, I had sighted him a few times, but I couldn't get close to him without embarrassing myself or seeming desperate.I sighed audibly, this was going to be my last desperate attempt. I saw an ad in
Chapter OneRiver's POVI took a deep breath, taking in the New York air. I absolutely loved the smell of the city. It smelled like big dreams and lots of opportunities, money, and, last but not least, hot men.Tomorrow I have my life-changing case; this is going to be my big break. I have the privilege of being the counsel to a hotshot client in a million-dollar suit.Once I win as per usual tomorrow, my name will become a corporate staple. Every company would want me as their lawyer and I can't finally get the life I've worked so damn hard for.But first, I need to fuck someone tonight. I let out a breath enjoying the view of the magnificent hotel pool, my eyes scanning for my next prey. Yeah, I won't lie I've seen potential. Hot men with chiseled abs and all but I've had even better. Since this is the most important case of my life, I need to have the most passionate one-night stand of my life with the best-looking man I've ever been with.“River, you need to change your ways and
River's POVI woke with a banging headache, feeling rather sore. But not the bad kind of sore, the delicious kind of sore; glancing at the digital alarm, I saw the time was already 7am (the next morning).'Shit.’ I muttered softly, I turned around and noticed the space beside me was empty. What the heck? My eyes fell on my ripped clothes on the floor and I almost started panicking.How the hell was I to get out of here, where exactly was I even? I jumped off the bed in search of my cell phone and I saw a beautiful black dress and a folded note.I picked it up and read: 'Sorry for the ripped dress, and thanks for the beautiful night🖤’. I don't know why I smiled reading the letter. My phone rang loudly and I jumped slightly, swearing.I checked my phone to see that it was Samantha calling, I picked up the call.“Hi babes.” “The hell River, get your ass out of the hotel room.
