ELLIE

The music was slow, and I had no idea what I was doing, but I let the blond lead me. He placed both hands on my waist, automatically making me place mine on his shoulders before we started moving slowly.

"Are you American?" He asked in my language, with a strong French accent, relieving me because I knew no more than five words in French.

"I'm glad you speak my language," I smiled. "I thought we'd have to use Google Translate or something. Yes, I'm American."

"And what brought you to France?" He asked with a smile, genuinely curious.

"I'm on a vacation trip with my friends. I just realized I don't know your name yet."

"Valentin, a pleasure, miss?"

"Ellie."

"It's a pleasure, Ellie."

"The pleasure is mine. And I apologize if I end up stepping on your foot, dancing is not my strong suit, especially after drinking so much wine."

"If I can keep looking at your face, I won't complain, I promise," he said, making me smile.

After a few minutes of conversation, I noticed that besides bei

    ELLIEOutside, I dragged him to the side of the property. Leaning against the stone wall, I began to unzip his pants."No," he said, taking hold of my hands. "We can't do this." Was he rejecting me? It made no sense."God! You don't know what you want," I said, trying to escape the prison I had put myself in between his body and the wall, but he held me in place. "Let me go." His hands reached for my face."Oh, Ellie... you have no idea how much I want this," he said, his eyes fixed on mine, looking tormented. "But as much as I desire you in an almost insane way, I can't do this with you drunk, because you'll regret it tomorrow.""I appreciate your concern, but I know exactly what I'm doing. So stop acting like you haven't had as much or more to drink than I have."Okay, part of that was a lie. I didn't know what I was doing or how I would deal with it afterward, and maybe the alcohol was indeed making me throw caution to the wind. But what I did know was that I wanted this.He stared

    ELLIEI woke up with an arm around my waist and a warm body against my back. It wasn't just a dream; he was actually in my bed. I shifted slightly, and he moved, making me feel something hot and hard against my ass.That was enough to awaken desire between my legs. God! What were we doing? What was I doing? Panic surged through me for a few seconds.Breathe, Ellie. It's okay. You can handle this without freaking out. Or maybe not, since I couldn't resist on the first day of the trip. But how could I? The man beside me was temptation personified.Alright, first I needed to get up without waking him. I couldn't think straight with his huge cock pressing against my ass. I slowly removed his arm from my waist and slid out of bed. He stirred a bit, turning his chest upward.I tried to make as little noise as possible, treading lightly on the wooden floor, going to the bathroom. I stood in front of the sink mirror. Oh, god! My hair was a mess.It was probably the result of the way Ethan had

    ETHANI closed the door behind me. Miss Brown was still asleep, and I had to make an extra effort to stop watching her and get up. I was tempted to wake her up for another round, but I had to go down to the damn couch because, for some reason, she cared that our friends knew about us.Not that I didn't understand her. We didn't need Zoe trying to interfere. And I certainly didn't need Will wanting to kick my ass.My body froze as I turned towards the hallway; my brother was standing at the top of the stairs, staring at me with crossed arms and his usual disapproving look.Shit. Why didn't I check the damn hallway? I approached him before anyone else decided to come out of the room in the middle of the night."Don't say anything," I said before starting to descend the steps. He followed me. Of course, it wouldn't be so easy to get rid of him.In the living room, I sat on one of the dark brown leather sofas. Bennett sat on the arm of the other one in front of me."What are you doing?" h

    ETHANWhen we returned to the house, everyone had already had breakfast and was getting ready to go to the next winery we were going to visit. I wasn't in the mood for another outing, so I decided to stay, hoping to find an internet signal to check some work emails. Maybe I could get ahead on a few things. I didn't like thinking about all the backlog that would be waiting for me when I returned.Some time later, everyone had left, leaving me alone. After taking a shower and having coffee, I grabbed my laptop and settled into a small room on the second floor of the house, where there were two dark blue sofas in the center.A few hours later, I was focused on answering my emails when the door was opened, surprising me. Miss Brown turned to me after I thought I had heard the sound of the door being locked.Was she barefoot? Leaning against the door, she gave me a good view of her body. She was wearing a white summer dress with a pattern of small pink flowers and puffy sleeves. The dress

    ETHAN There was something in her gaze that told me she loved seeing me unravel in her hands. She began moving her fingers around me, up and down, gripping me tightly, just the way I liked it. Oh, yes, this was much more than relaxing. I closed my eyes, tilting my head back, feeling the muscles in my legs growing increasingly tense. "Fuck!" I growled as she picked up the pace. She was driving me crazy, staring at me with that teasing look. Making me want to fuck her violently. Grasping the base of my cock with one hand, she used the other to massage around the head, circling with her fingers. Oh, fuck. Fucking hot. Her breasts were almost popping out of her dress. The sight made me want to fuck them. I turned my attention back to her face. She licked her lips and bit the lower one, torturing me. Leaning in, I ran my hand through her hair and reached for her face with the other. "Lick," I ordered before sliding my fingers across her lips, craving the touch of her tongue. My

    ELLIE After hiding Ethan's computer, I went downstairs to meet up with my friends. Will decided to cook dinner. I wondered if I should be concerned because everyone seemed a bit high. I sat on one of the chairs at the end of the kitchen counter. Everyone seemed engaged in some conversation while drinking wine. Rosie showed up a minute later, sitting next to me. "Hey!" she said, smiling at me and squinting her big green eyes. "Hey! Do you think it's safe to let Will cook?" She laughed beside me, tucking a strand of her dark blonde hair behind her ear. "I'm listening, El," Will said, turning to us. "Try not to hurt yourself; don't forget I still need your DNA." "Alright. Should I have understood that?" Rosie asked, confused. "No. It's something between us. I'm trying to convince Will and Anna to donate some of his DNA to me to try cloning him in a lab." "Oh, of course, because you're a scientist," she laughed. "And also because Will is the best catch I know: nerdy, handsome, an

    ELLIE After dinner, I went upstairs to get ready. We planned to visit the nearby city and do some exploring. Anna had told me that the city offered light projections in certain places at night. After choosing something to wear, I found myself staring at the single bed that was now a short distance from mine. Mr. Beauchamp had brought it in shortly before breakfast. That meant Ethan would be sleeping in the room tonight. I don't know why, but it made me a little nervous. The door opened behind me. Mr. Morgan walked in. Without looking at me, he walked over to his suitcase and started rummaging through it. "Are you going to take a shower?" I asked, trying to figure out why he seemed strange. "Yes," he replied curtly. "So am I." "Do you want to go first?" "That's not exactly what I expected to hear." "What did you expect?" he asked, finally turning to face me without showing any emotion. "Maybe something like, 'Do you want to join me?'" I teased him, but he remained expressionl

    ELLIE I should be angry with him for calling me that, and I knew he only did it because of the handsome British guy next to me. But the way he was looking at me made all my desire to yell at him disappear. "Shall we sit at a table?" he asked, pulling me out of my trance. I blinked a few times. "I…" I turned my face, remembering the stranger sitting next to me. He was watching us. "I already ordered something. Actually... this gentleman beside me chose a wine for me. A Pinot Noir?" "Richebourg," Edward added. "I admit, you have good taste," Mr. Morgan said, his tone making it clear that he wasn't only talking about the wine. At that moment, the bartender approached with my glass. "Thank you, you can bring the bottle to our table," Ethan said, taking my glass. "Of course, sir," the bartender said before turning away. Then Ethan offered me his hand. Behind all the pretended charm, he was being a big, arrogant jerk. "Excuse me and thank you," I said to Edward before taking Ethan's h

    ELLIE How I wished to say yes. His lips seemed so inviting, so close, almost irresistible. All I wanted was to lean in and kiss him while pulling his hair. And then, to rip off his clothes and feel the warmth and weight of his body on mine. But everything between us was undefined, and sex would only further complicate things. We needed to talk before anything else. "We... we need to talk first," I managed to say. He nodded, his lips curving into a weak smile, a failed attempt to hide his frustration. "Okay, let's do it on your terms," he said, stepping back, allowing me to breathe. "Dinner then?" "How about a run in the park tomorrow morning?" "A run?" "Unless December's cold is too much for a beach girl like you," he teased. "I know what you're trying to do." "What?" he asked, trying to contain a smile. "You're making it a challenge because you know that's how I operate." "So... 7 o'clock?" "You also know I hate waking up early." "Think of it as an attempt to do things

    Lisa pinched my arm, and tilted her head towards the tall, muscular guy who had just walked into the bar. “You didn’t go out with Mitchel yesterday? You’re fast.” I arched an eyebrow, teasing. “Five minutes, that’s what I have to say in my defense.” She laughed and I joined her. We were getting drunk in some bar in Manhattan, celebrating the end of classes. Earlier, we took the last test, which will select one of the students in my class, to occupy a position in one of the largest companies in the country, Ryan Enterprises. It is the first time that Ryan offers a program in partnership with our University. Although Columbia has partnered with several other major companies in the market, the position at Ryan offers the opportunity to work directly with the CEO. This would be incredible, not only for the possibility of using this experience to assemble the final work, which we would have to present, but also because I couldn’t imagine a better way to start a career. For me, it repres

    "No. Please, let me go," I begged. "You know you're not supposed to be here. Now come on." With ease, he lifted me and put me over his shoulder. I had to use all my strength not to scream or fight. I tried to decide whether to try to escape before he took me to the others. Maybe I'd have a chance against one of them, but certainly not against four. Damn it. He was too big. A confrontation would probably kill me. I shouldn't have come here. Was this the end for me? What would they do to me? As he approached the house, drawing the attention of the three men on the porch, I realized that my only option to try to survive was not to resist and try not to provoke them, hiding any emotion. But I doubted that anything would be left of me when they were done. One of the men, with long black hair, howled with excitement, coming towards us. "What do we have here? Looks like Lyall found something for us," he said with a big smile, while the other two seemed curious. All three were as big as th

    ELLIE You know that phase in life where it seems like all your friends are happy and have achieved everything there is to achieve? That was the phase I was going through. It seemed like all my friends had achieved professional success, found the perfect partner, and were getting married or planning to have children. And I was the outlier in this story. At twenty-seven, I'm starting to feel like I'm stuck, even though I'm happy with my work as a scientist and researcher and extremely happy for my friends, I couldn't help feeling unhappy with my love life. It was hard not to feel a little jealous of each couple's story in my large group of friends. Bennett or simply Ben, and Zoe, two cretins who fell in love before they could kill each other, I don't know how they were still alive, maybe because they took out all their anger on each other in sex. Anna, my best friend, and William or Will, former jerk and tattooed nerd, the most handsome and hottest I had ever met. I was still trying

    My heart was pounding in my chest, adrenaline coursing through my body as I closed the door behind me. Two minutes. I quickly decided that the best course of action was to use this time to run as fast as I could and try to gain some initial advantage. A second later, I was already entering the dark forest, forcing my legs to move as quickly as I could. Tall trees rose against the night sky, their branches intertwining like giant fingers reaching towards the heavens, forming a high and impenetrable canopy that blocked out the light, causing almost complete darkness. The faint light of the moon cast deep and eerie shadows on the tree roots and surrounding bushes. My senses sharpened, adapting to the environment as I pressed on. The night air was cool and damp, filled with the scent of leaves and wet earth. The sounds of nature echoed around me, composing a chilling melody. I could distinguish the sound of animals moving and the wind rustling and creaking the branches. I tried to focus

    I tried to formulate a response, feeling a mixture of apprehension and excitement running through my body, but the words seemed to have vanished from my mind. Lyall's provocation awakened the desire that I had been trying to deny and suppress since our first encounter. Not just because I had just met him, but because I should focus on what was important. I knew it was a bad idea to get involved with any of them."I..." I cleared my throat, trying to clear my mind. Staring at his bare chest didn't help. "Good evening, Lyall," I said, circling him and opening the door, escaping down the hallway with my heart racing.I entered my room, closing the door behind me. I took a deep breath. I couldn't allow the attraction to Lyall to divert me from my objective. Any involvement, even if only physical, could complicate things. However, I couldn't deny that his presence affected me.There's no room for distractions, Morana. Stay on guard, and keep your focus. I stared at the doorknob for a few s

    After a long and exhausting trip back that lasted most of the night, I finally arrived home. It was already dawn, and the silence in the house was broken only by the sound of the wind blowing the leaves of the trees around the property. I entered the house and found Verena still awake on the garden balcony. As I approached, the cold air enveloped me."What happened? I thought you wouldn't come back." She was surprised to see me."It's cold, let's go inside, and then I'll tell you." We settled on the living room sofa, and then I told her everything that had happened and how I had been rejected."I'm sorry, Mor. I didn't want you to go through this." She said, seeming guilty, before finally breaking down in tears. "I'm sorry. I know what I did was horrible, but I was desperate.""It's okay." I approached her to hug her. "It's okay. It's not your fault. I understand. You love him." I tried to comfort her."I'm so sorry." She sniffled. "But this is good, right? They don't deserve you, and

    ETHAN Hearing her say that made any remaining shreds of control I had vanish. Damn. After all the hell I'd been through in the last few months, and how much I feared I might never have her again, hearing the need and urgency in her voice unleashed a whirlwind of emotions. Something broke. The fear finally fell away. As I rose, I effortlessly tore off her little red panties and grabbed her ass, pulling her off the counter. I could hardly think. That damn red lingerie was driving me insane. In haste, she yanked the apron strap over my head and somehow managed to unfasten it at my back, letting it fall to the floor. Reaching between our bodies, she grabbed my cock. My body quivered with pleasure in response. "Fuck," I growled. She began to move her fingers around me, and I knew that after all this time, I could come just from that. But she needed me. And despite having dreamed of this moment many times over the past months and days, I knew it would be hard to resist and not finish a

    ELLIE I was left speechless as a wave of heat spread through my core, rising to the surface, making my skin tingle. Damn. He looked like he'd stepped out of some erotic Christmas fantasy. Maybe a dream. Okay, maybe one of my dreams. My eyes moved down below his waistline again, trying to discern if he was truly completely naked under the apron. I bit my lip. "Happy Christmas," he whispered with a shy, sexy smile, pulling my attention back to his face. His brown eyes gleamed with a wild and sensual fire. A few strands of dark blonde hair were falling onto his forehead, held in place by the chef's hat. His broad, defined shoulders and chest were on display. I blinked a few times, swallowing the saliva that had gathered in my mouth. Sexy as hell. "Do you need an invitation... or would you prefer I toss you over my shoulder and carry you inside?" he asked, arching an eyebrow and crossing his muscular arms over his chest, reminding me of the night I'd knocked on his door, and he threa
