MILES

WARNING: EXPLICIT SEXUAL CONTENT

His honey-coated eyes cut to mine, dark with a question. A hesitation. A hesitation I didn’t want.

I needed him to want this. I needed him to take me apart, to drown me in something hotter than this constant emptiness. I needed an escape from my mind, a distraction from the crushing weight of reality.

A single moment passed before he crashed his lips into mine like a storm on a rampage. He tasted like beer and cinnamon, rough and raw against my tongue, and suddenly, nothing had ever tasted better.

This kiss wasn’t sweet. It wasn’t gentle. It was primal. It was hunger.

His hands roamed my body, sliding down my curves before gripping my ass, yanking me forward, forcing me to meet the hard length pressing through his jeans. A moan escaped my lips before I could stop it, and he swallowed it whole, dragging his teeth along my bottom lip, sucking until it was sore.

I reached between us, palming him over the denim, feeling just how thick he was.

Fuck.

A curse rumbled through his chest, vibrating against me as his fingers worked open the buttons of my shorts. In one sharp tug, he shoved them down my legs, his hands slipping beneath my underwear, a groan slipping from his lips as he felt how wet I was.

I gasped, my head falling back, my body arching into him.

I didn’t realize just how much I needed this—how much I wanted to be wanted.

Gripping his hair, I yanked him closer, dragging him into me, desperate to feel more, to sink into this electricity crackling between us.

A low growl reverberated in his chest as he lifted me effortlessly, my legs wrapping around his waist as he carried me blindly through the dark. I didn't care where he was taking me. He could throw me down on the dirt and have me here if he wanted.

He slammed me against a tree, and I gasped, pain slicing through my back as the rough bark pressed against my bruises.

"Shit," he muttered, adjusting quickly, gripping me tighter, turning on his heel, and stalking toward somewhere else.

I buried my face in his neck, inhaling the deep musk of sandalwood and bourbon, the heat of his body searing through my skin as I fisted his shirt.

He kicked a door open, the heavy creak of wood filling the silence before I was laid down onto something soft, something plush.

I blinked up, dazed.

Large, lush leaves surrounded us, casting shadows in the glow of the moonlight streaming through the glass ceiling.

"Where are we?" I breathed.

"Greenhouse," was all he said.

His hands went to his belt buckle, loosening it with slow, practiced ease as his gaze roamed over me. I barely had a moment to take in the expanse of green before his fingers curled beneath my chin, tilting my face back to him.

I shivered beneath the weight of his stare.

His voice was a low rasp, dangerous and intimate. "What kind of misery are you running from?"

The question punched through me, sharp as a blade.

For a second, I nearly told him.

But I didn’t want to think. I didn’t want to feel.

I wanted to fuck.

So instead of answering, I spread my legs, hooking my fingers beneath my underwear and sliding the soaked fabric to the side, baring myself to him.

A muscle ticked in his jaw as his golden eyes dropped between my thighs, darkening with pure, carnal need.

He fisted his cock, thick and hard in his hand, dragging his palm slowly up and down his shaft. My mouth went dry.

I clenched at the sight of him.

Jesus fucking Christ.

"Fuck, you're impatient," he murmured, but there was something teasing in his tone. "You're not even gonna let me play with you first?"

"Shut up and fuck me," I demanded, voice breathless.

He chuckled darkly, rolling a condom over his length.

"I'm going to fuck you so hard," he murmured, lining himself up, the head of his cock teasing my entrance, "that smart-ass mouth of yours won’t know how to speak."

A desperate whimper escaped me as he slid himself along my folds, gathering my slick.

I was losing my fucking mind.

"Please," I begged. "Just put it in."

He groaned, gripping my hips. "Next time, I’ll take my sweet time with you," he promised.

Shlick, shlick.

"I’ll taste you."

Shlick, shlick.

"Make you beg like a dog in heat."

I shivered, my walls clenching around nothing. Next time? Cute. He thought there would be a next time.

I grabbed his shirt, yanking him closer. "You can have whatever you want. Just fuck me."

Something dark flashed in his eyes before he shoved me back down, ripped my underwear clean off, and slammed into me with one hard thrust.

I screamed.

The stretch was so deep, so full, I arched off the plush bench, my head falling back, my nails digging into his arms.

"Fuck," he groaned against my throat. "Tight little cunt is choking my cock."

I gasped, gripping onto anything, my brain short-circuiting as he withdrew and thrust again, deeper this time. My walls clenched hard, the feeling so overwhelming, so all-consuming that my vision blurred.

No one had ever fucked me like this.

Not my first time two years ago with the neighbor's son.

Not Kenny from the night shift at the diner.

Not even my own damn fingers could take me from the numbness like this man did.

His pace was brutal, unrelenting, fucking into me like he had something to prove, like he wanted to carve himself into my body and make me remember him forever.

And I would.

His hands slid up my body, gripping my thighs before pushing my knees higher, forcing me open as he pounded into me, filling me to the fucking brim.

"So deep," I sobbed, body writhing, the pleasure so sharp it was unbearable.

"That’s right," he groaned, dragging his teeth along my jaw. "You're mine right now. No one else."

My head spun. My moans grew louder, higher, my body trembling as the coil deep inside me wound so tight it was ready to snap.

"I-I'm gonna come!" I gasped, pulling him closer.

He slammed into me harder, faster, the sound of our bodies colliding echoing through the greenhouse.

"That’s it," he growled. "Come all over my cock, sweetheart."

And fuck—fuck, fuck, fuck—I shattered.

The orgasm hit so violently my back arched, a scream ripping from my throat as my entire body convulsed. My walls pulsed tight around him, milking him for everything he had as pleasure burned through my veins, hot and unyielding.

"Fuck, you feel so fucking good, sweetheart. Just divine."

Dominic ground into me with firm, steady plunges.

"Pull those tits out for me," he ordered, and I didn’t hesitate, yanking my tank and bra down, my breasts popping free.

"Fucking beautiful."

He leaned over, running his tongue over my nipple, and fuck—it felt so good I could barely breathe. My moans turned into cries as he fucked me harder, faster, deeper.

His hips stuttered, his groans turning ragged, and with a final, brutal thrust, he tensed, spilling into the condom with a deep, guttural moan.

We collapsed together, panting, bodies slick with sweat.

I laid there, staring up at the glass ceiling, watching the way the moonlight bathed the leaves in silver.

I didn’t have very many happy memories.

But this moment?

It would be filed away with the rest.

And that spelled trouble.

It was my last thought before I passed out.

Miles! You cunning girl. Nothing like a good old f*cking challenge. ;) xxx

    MILESMy eyes snapped open.A pounding headache greeted me, followed by the sharp sting of dehydration clawing at my throat. Light filtered through green-tinted windows, casting eerie shadows across the room and making my temples throb in protest.Heat.Soft puffs of air fanned across the top of my head, warm and steady.Wait.I stiffened.I fucking didn’t…Heart racing, I swallowed hard and slowly—ever so fucking slowly—lifted my head, dreading what I would see.The first thing I noticed was the broad chest beneath my palm, rising and falling in a steady rhythm.

  • My Bruised Heart   Eat Your Vegetables

    MILESShopping with my mother was fucking exhausting.Every second in her presence was a carefully choreographed performance—fake smiles, forced laughter, and the ever-present threat of a sharp slap behind closed doors if I dared step out of line. She played the doting mother, whispering sweet endearments while digging her nails into my arm, just deep enough to leave marks.By the time we made it home from picking out dresses, stopping at the salon (which she hated because the stylist dared to call me naturally beautiful), and buying shoes, I was running on fumes. My stomach twisted with hunger, and I had to clench my jaw to stop it from growling like a wild animal. I hadn't eaten since my shift at the diner, and that was... fuck. When even was that?As much as I hated this night, dinner couldn't come fast enough.For once, I was looking forward to something.I kept my head down as we drove through the nicer part of town, pressing my fingers into my thighs to distract myself from the g

  • My Bruised Heart   You?

    MILES Damn it. Dominic Black was still as handsome as he was yesterday, and seeing him now in crisp black slacks and a white dress shirt, his sleeves rolled up just enough to reveal his forearms, made my stomach twist with something I wasn’t willing to name. Worse, he was the spitting image of his father. Which meant my mother and I had the same fucking taste. I forced myself to focus on my plate, stabbing at my vegetables while my mind raced with panic. My mouth told me the food was buttery, smooth, practically melting on my tongue. My brain said it tasted like sandpaper. I had royally fucked up. He kept glancing at me. I could feel it. The weight of his stare burned into my skin, making me itch, making me want to shrink in my chair. He was probably wondering what the hell happened last night just as much as I was. But somehow, it felt like he was blaming me. Like I had orchestrated this whole thing. Like I wanted to wake up in the same bed as him, tangled in plants I

  • My Bruised Heart   You Dirty Girl

    MILES "Wait, so let me get this straight. When you disappeared last night, you were trying to find your way out but ended up in the garden. Then, in the garden, you ran into that disrespectful asshole who threw your fairly earned money at you, and you ended up fucking him? And then you went to dinner today and found out that same asshole, who you just fucked last night, will be your new stepbrother?" I left out the bit about my panic attack. There was no need to cause unnecessary worry. After dinner, my mom only drove a few blocks away before kicking me out because she had 'things to do.' I'd never been more thankful that I wore flats instead of the heels she bought for me in my life. I walked straight to Kenzie's because... Well, I had to tell someone. "And I'm pretty sure he has a vendetta against me now," I added. Kenzie sat across from me on her bed, legs crossed, arms folded, eyes narrowed in full interrogation mode. I waited for the explosion. She looked back at me with sus

  • My Bruised Heart   Momma Jay's

    MILES “Hey Kenny, slow night so far?” I asked as I stepped into Momma Jay's 24-hour diner. The scent of butter and syrup wrapped around me, as familiar as my own skin. The jukebox hummed low, playing some old blues song in the corner. The place was half-empty—just a few late-night regulars hunched over coffee, stirring cream into their cups like the act alone would keep them awake. It should’ve felt normal. But something was wrong. Kenny was behind the counter, wiping down an already spotless surface. His chocolate-brown eyes flickered to me, then to the floor. He looked uncomfortable. He never looked uncomfortable. I froze. “Miles,” he said carefully, like he was picking each word out of thin air. “I didn’t think you’d be coming in tonight.” I blinked. “Why not? I called yesterday to pick up a late shift since I had that family dinner, remember?” He nodded, shifting from foot to foot. “Yeah… but I thought Momma Jay had told you.” Something crawled up my spine. “Tol

  • My Bruised Heart   There Was Nothing

    MILES My mother was unusually quiet for the next few days. No insults. No orders. Not even a glance in my direction. And it was driving me fucking crazy. She wasn’t ignoring me out of kindness. No, that wasn’t her style. This was something else—something calculated. A new way to get under my skin. A different kind of punishment. It was working. I felt like I was pacing myself into madness, wearing a trench into the thin carpet of my room. Maybe it was the silence. Maybe it was the anxiety of not knowing when the other shoe would drop. Or maybe it was the suffocating realization that, despite everything, I was still waiting for her to acknowledge me. Like a fucking idiot. She had better things to do, anyway. Like preparing to move into the mansion with Mr. Black. Apparently, the man was so eager to merge our families that we weren’t even waiting until after the wedding. He insisted it would help us all bond. Like we weren’t just strangers forced under the same roof. I wouldn

  • My Bruised Heart   It's A Lie

    MILES She returned about an hour later, rolling into the driveway in a sleek, pearl-white car. It caught the streetlights just right, gleaming like a trophy. I watched from my bedroom window as she stepped out, heels clicking against the pavement, her expression unreadable as she popped the trunk and pulled out a for sale sign. She had bought a new car. She was selling the house. My stomach twisted. Was I being sold too? During the hour she was gone, I had spiraled. First, I cursed at the ceiling. Then, I punched my mattress until my knuckles throbbed. After that, I paced—back and forth, back and forth—trying to make sense of it all. Trying to convince myself that there was sense to be made. Then, I sat on my bed and took deep breaths, forcing myself to remember: You’re still breathing. You’re still here. I showered. Got dressed. Even put on a little makeup to hide the dark crescents under my eyes. Even though my escape plan was ruined, I still had tomorrow. Tomorrow, I turned e

    DOM It was her. I pressed the nail of my thumb into my palm just to make sure I wasn’t seeing things. Yes. It was her. Miles Valentine. The name rolled through my mind like a whisper, wrapping around something deep and primal inside me. She was the girl who threw me completely off my game last night. The girl who wiped the floor with me in eight-ball. The girl who smirked at me like she knew she was going to win before the game even started. The girl who called me an asshole four times in a row just to see what I’d do about it. And now she was sitting at my family’s dining table. I had to be losing my goddamn mind. She hadn’t looked at me. Not even once. That should have been a good thing. It should have made it easier. But instead, I found myself staring, waiting, wanting—for what, I wasn’t sure. A glance. A smirk. Even an insult. Something to tell me last night hadn’t just been some drunken fluke, that she hadn’t completely forgotten. I watched as she picked at h

    MILES Miles: Marcus Miles: Where are you? Miles: I swear, when I lay eyes on you, your balls are going in a vice. Miles: Don’t make me find you. I sighed and tossed my new phone into my bag, the screen blacking out like it was tired of me too. Marcus was avoiding me like the plague, and Dom—he was holding something back. I could feel it. Taste it in the silence between us. See it in the way his hand would twitch like he wanted to reach for me... and didn’t. “They’re probably pissed at you,” Kenzie had said earlier over the phone. She had called to “check in,” which in Kenzie speak meant scold me for not dying harder. “I know I was,” she went on. “If you hadn’t already flatlined and come back, I would’ve killed you myself.” “I’m still alive, you know.” “Yes, and you’re lucky.” Her voice cracked just enough to make my guilt spike. “You flatlined for a full fucking minute, Miles. Don’t think you hid that from any of us.” “You talk to them?” Another sigh. “Of course. You can’

    DOMINICI didn’t realize how loud it was in my head until everything else went quiet.The sound of lockers slamming, cleats against tile, water running in the showers—none of it touched me. I was stuck. Floating somewhere between rage and guilt, fear and this fucking ache in my chest that wouldn’t go away.Marcus walked in, tossing a water bottle onto the bench beside me.“You’re spiraling.”“Wow. Thanks for the diagnosis, Dr. Phil.” I didn’t look up. “Where the hell have you been?”He sighed and plopped down next to me. “Dealing with Mommy Dearest.”That was all he said. I didn’t pry. Not here. Not yet. Not with our teammates still around. The walls had ears.He patted his lap. “Come on, lay back and tell me all about it.”I grimaced. “Dude, no.”“You know you want to. You’ve been giving me those ‘comfort me’ eyes for days. It’s calling to me.”The way my eyes were slapping his face—over and over—“Don’t deny me.”I didn’t want to talk about it. But fuck—I needed to. Everything from

  • My Bruised Heart   Who Was She?

    DOMINIC I heard it. "She's fucking crazy. Like--an actual psycho," said Tanya's friend. Followed by: "Did you hear what she said? She basically risked her life for the adrenaline." "Kinda wicked though. She's got a serious vag on her to pull that kinda stunt and come out with a few broken bones." "Right? I think I love her. Who is she?" Exactly. Who was she? Her shoulders didn’t slump anymore. Her eyes didn’t wander the floor. She didn’t shrink from whispers—she stood taller, looked people dead in the face. It should’ve made me proud. It should’ve felt like progress. But all it did was twist something deep in my gut. Because it almost cost her everything. I watched her walk out of that classroom, head held high like she hadn’t just shaken an entire room of people without even raising her voice. She was becoming someone else. Someone harder. Sharper. And maybe that was the point. Maybe that was how she survived. But it scared the shit out of me. Because I remembered the

  • My Bruised Heart   The Psycho

    MILES Lunch was over way too quickly. The second Dominic and I stepped out of the library, the stares returned like they'd been waiting for us. Silent, sharp. Hungry. Added by the whispers. "Think she's the jumper?" "What kind of psycho jumps off a cliff unless they’re trying to die?" It shouldn't have bothered me. And it didn’t. Not really. But the attention? The spotlight? That made my skin crawl. The worst part was that Dom looked like he was barely holding it together. His jaw ticked every few steps. His hand twitched at his side like he wanted to grab mine. Like maybe that would ground him. Or maybe it would ground me. It didn’t even matter what they said. They were going to talk. They were going to look. Not because of me. Not just because of me. But because of him. Dominic Black. The golden boy, the prince of the campus—was hovering over the broken girl who looked an awful lot like the one who jumped off a fucking cliff. Earlier in class, I heard people whisp

  • My Bruised Heart   She Thought She Knew Me

    KENNY Miles acted like nothing had happened. Like she hadn’t unraveled in my arms. Like she hadn’t called my name with my hands on her skin, my mouth against her throat. Like she hadn’t begged me to make her feel something. And fine. I could play along. But I wasn’t stupid. The way her fingers hesitated sometimes when she reached for something. The way her gaze flickered, just for a second, when I got too close. The way her lips parted when I made her laugh, like she had almost forgotten she could. She hadn’t forgotten. I could tell my the way her cheeks would flush when my hand brushed hers. She was pretending. And I let her. I still made her coffee the way she liked it. I still teased her when she got flustered. I still called her Mimi, just to see the corner of her mouth twitch in that almost smile. She never pulled away. Never put space between us. But I knew where the line was. And I never crossed it. Until today. I was behind the counter at the diner, wipi

    *WARNING EXPLICIT SEXUAL CONTENT* KENNY "You can't take it from me," she whispered. Her voice curled around my ribs. Tangled in my lungs. "But you can give me something else." My throat bobbed. “Miles—” “Something to feel.” And there went my self-control. Miles barely had time to breathe before my hands were on her—gripping her waist, yanking her against me. My mouth crashed against hers, and she took it. Took everything I gave like she had been starving for it. A low moan hummed from her throat, vibrating against my lips, and fuck—I was already gone. I had wanted to kiss her for days. Wanted to feel her. Wanted to take away her pain. Her fingers slipped into my hair, nails scraping my scalp, pulling, tugging, making me groan into her mouth. “Kenny,” she breathed, and I felt it. Felt her heat. Her desperation. The way she arched into me like she wanted to climb inside me, crawl under my skin and stay there. I grabbed her thigh, hoisting it up, pressing my k

  • My Bruised Heart   The Light In Her Eyes

    KENNY Her eyes were hauntingly beautiful. A storm in a purple sky. Lavenders on a cloudy day. Such beautiful damn eyes. If only they held a little bit of light in them. I remembered the first time she walked into the diner. It was late afternoon, the kind of heat that clung to your skin like a second layer. I thought she was a customer at first, so I grabbed a menu and made my way over, only for her to throw her hands up, a nice coral blush tinting her ears. “Oh, I don’t have any money,” she said, biting her lip. “I saw the help wanted sign and wanted to apply.” Her hair was windblown, strands sticking to her forehead from sweat, and she smelled like the sun… and honey. It wasn’t perfume—just her. Fresh, a little wild, like she had been running through an open field before stepping in. I should’ve said something. Anything. Instead, my brain short-circuited as I followed a single bead of sweat trailing down her freckled cheek, over the curve of her jaw, disappearing beneath the

  • My Bruised Heart   Silence

    MILESDominic met my stare with something unreadable in his golden eyes. Even as I pulled him closer, still, he held back."Scared?" I dared, knowing he liked a good challenge.But instead of that knowing smirk—the one with those delicious dimples—he inhaled through his nose and gently pulled my hand from his shirt. He stepped back until he was leaning on the nearby bookshelf.I had expected him to come stomping into the library like a storm barely leashed, dragging his rage with him. I had expected his sharp tongue, his impatient sighs, his suffocating protectiveness that had only gotten worse since I woke up in the hospital.What I hadn’t expected… was this.Silence.Now, he stood in front of me, hands shoved into the pockets of his jacket, jaw tight, eyes stormy. I had chosen the farthest, most secluded corner of the library to eat my lunch, but of course, he found me anyway.Of course, he did.I swallowed my last bite of an apple and leaned back against my chair, resting my good a

  • My Bruised Heart   Guess I Really Am A Psycho

    MILES Maybe I thought I would be prepared to return to university. Maybe I believed that after everything, walking these halls would be easy. I had decided to go despite myself, just to prove a point. That I wasn’t weak. But that weakness crawled out from the dirt I buried it in as soon as I entered my first class. I had spent the morning in the library, hidden in the quiet while Dom and Marcus were at practice. It was the first time in weeks I had been truly alone—no watchful eyes, no questions, no hovering hands. Just silence. Then, I left. And as soon as I walked—no, limped—into my first class, the whispers started. You would think the stares were because of the brace on my ankle, the sling keeping my shoulder in place. But no. It was because Dominic Black had his hand on my waist, his grip steady as he helped me to my seat. "Who the hell is she?" Someone whispered. "Why does she seem so close to three of the hottest guys in school?" "She’s probably fucking them." "No,
