Juliet Diaz:-

The sun was scorching hot in the sky, and the ocean waves glinted golden reflections from its rays as I ran across the sand barefoot. The cheers of the other players mixed with my laughter, and we all dove, spiked, and set the volleyball back and forth over the net.

The air was salty, itching against my skin and giving me the first taste of freedom in a long time. My eyes locked onto the game as Nicholas stood on the other side of the net, but his were fixed on me. He wasn’t faking interest in the ball. His eyes would rake over my bikini-clad body, and he would look at me in amusement whenever I jumped.

Tossing the ball in the air and serving it over, I teased, "Quit staring, Carrington'."

He caught it effortlessly, smirking. “Can’t help it, sweetheart. You’re a distraction.”

But before I could retort, I rolled my eyes and was grabbed by someone from behind. I was roped in with strong arms around my waist, then lifted off the ground and spun in a circle. A deep chuckle w

    Nicholas Carrington:-I stared at her beautiful face as she slept peacefully in my arms after I exhausted her last night. I moved the strands of her hair and caressed her cheeks gently. I wanted to wake her so severely and make love to her once again, but I knew she was sore, so I held myself back.I love this woman. There was no denying that, but how would I convince this angel's devil and dangerously over-protective brother? He trusts me blindly with his sister; how will he react when he finds out that I have fucked his sister and, worst, loved every moment of it? So did she as she begged for more.As I was thinking about my best friend Zacharias, my phone rang, flashing his name on the screen. I know I couldn't tell him now, as I haven't discussed this with Juliet, and I won't do anything without discussing her first. I want us to be on the same page before we tell Zacharias about this.I took a sway down and stared at Zacharias' flashing face on my screen. My fingers hesitated bef

    Juliet Diaz:-I waited for his reply and sat there with my head pounding, but he didn't say anything. There was nothing but silence in the room until he stood up on his feet and put his hand on mine, where I was holding the sheets securely. He pushed my hands gently and snatched the sheets.The cool air acted like a slap to my bare skin and I gasped as I instinctively tried to grab the sheets back, but Nick was faster. Pinning me under him, he smirked and tossed them to the floor."Are we truly finished speaking, sweetheart?" A possessive gaze stared back at me from his eyes while his voice remained low in a teasing manner. "Nick!" My cheeks turned red as I tried to break free, yet I struggled under his suppressing hand. His firm body pressed against me as he held me down while I became painfully aware of his closeness. He spoke again with tenderness as his thumb brushed down my arm before his mouth made contact with my skin. "We're not finished talking. Not even close." His lips k

    Juliet Diaz:-Sunlight of pure gold warmed my body while I stood on the wooden villa deck, which offered an endless view of glistening turquoise ocean depths. The breeze played with the strands of my hair, salt and tropical flowers filling the air. This place was Paradise, a world far from the chaos of our past.Nick drew my body against his strong physique and placed his hands around my waist. “You’re daydreaming again, angel,” he murmured against my ear … his rough voice from embracing the waves. I smiled, leaning into him. “Can you blame me? This place is unreal.”His chuckle pierced as he pressed a lingering kiss on my shoulder. "An entire day filled with exploration awaits both of us. Let’s make it even better.”The jungle trek, which began in Ubud's verdant private lands, formed our first destination for the day. We walked down thick tropical forests with a local guide by our side, pointing the way, passing hidden waterfalls that sparkled in the sun's light. On another occas

    Juliet Diaz:-"Are you, Miss Diaz, the architect who worked for Charles Whitmore?" a businessman in a three-piece suit asked when I was sitting in the cafe, having a cup of coffee, and designing a house for my client as I worked as a freelancer in my spare time."Ummm, yes, and you are?" I asked as politely as I could, but I couldn't help raising my brow. And how do you know my name?""Hello, It's nice to meet you. I am Jared Osborne from Osborne Architecture Firm, and I have a job position for you, " the handsome-looking tall man announced.I put my coffee cup down, flattening out my fingers a touch around my pen, and looked at the man in front of me. His eyes were on mine, expecting some sort of response from me, and his expression seemed composed."A job position?" I repeated, tilting my head. "I'm afraid I don't follow. How do you know about me?"Slinging his hands into his pockets, Jared gave a little smile. "I caught your work on Whitmore’s latest project. Several people in the

    Juliet Diaz:-"Oh my God, Jules! What's all this mess, and what's with this burning smell?"Nicholas's worried voice came down the hallway as I tried to hide the evidence of the burnt chocolate cake I prepared for Nicholas out of jealousy when I found his female nurse feeding Nicholas her cake, and Nicholas liking and complimenting it, in a flirty tone so I wanted to show him that I could make a better one, and the only cake he is only allowed to eat is mine, but clearly the evidence is the proof that I suck at cooking and baking as not everyone can be a good cook like Nicholas.I picked up the burnt cake and tried to dump it into the trash yet Nicholas entered the kitchen before I completed the action. Nicholas gazed at the chaos in surprise with his sharp blue eyes as he saw the countertop covered with flour dust and cocoa powder spillage while burnt sugar left an intense scent in the air. I forced a nervous smile. "Surprise?" Nick raised his brow while crossing his arms. His wo

    Juliet Diaz:-Jared approached my desk and handed me two cups of coffee; I had just finished organizing my files.He smiled and set one before me, saying, "For you."I went to look at it, then looked back at him. “What’s this for?”He replied, "You’ve been working nonstop. " This should help keep going. ” Picking it up, I hesitatingly did so. "Thanks, but you didn't need to."I stood from my desk, and Jared leaned against the edge of it, watching me as I took a sip.Since we finished the Harper project, we could go to a celebratory dinner. Just us.” I swallowed, lowering the cup.“Dinner?” He nodded. “No work talk. Just good food and conversation.”I paused, ready to respond with something, and then suddenly, a familiar presence opened my mouth. There was something unspoken in the air in the room, which shifted thick. My head turned, and I looked to see Nicholas at the entrance of my office.The icy, sharp eyes locked onto Jared were unreadable, but his expression was noncommittal.“

    Juliet Diaz:-Before I could open my mouth and make an excuse, Nicholas interfered by announcing."Oh, you know how much your sister hates me but loves to always argue with me." Nicholas rolled his eyes as he spoke. "She is never going to grow up and stay a pain in the ass.""I don't argue, you do!" I spat in anger, glaring at him. Nicholas smirked and opened his mouth to say when Zacharias came in between and announced."Knock it off, both of you! Can you both get along for once in your life? I can't even imagine how you both will be living together for the past few months. I am surprised to see you both alive and in one piece." Zach spoke, chuckling and pulling me in for a brotherly hug as he kissed my forehead, "Now, let's go inside."The Penthouse door clicked shut behind us, and I kicked off my heels with a slight sigh. Zacharias shrugs off his jacket, puts it over the back of the couch, and walks in like he owns the place.He muttered, grabbing a glass, “This place hasn’t change

    Juliet Diaz:-We remained tightly entwined after Nicholas's heat left my skin. Our breathing remained heavy, and our hearts beat at the same rhythm. My hand created slow circles on his exposed chest, and the heat in his skin felt through my fingers.A husky tone colored his voice as he pressed a gentle kissing motion onto my lips. “Come on a date with me.”I stared at him with an expression full of astonishment. “A date?”He smirked. “Yes, Juliet. A proper date. I wish to cherish you through an unforgettable date while introducing you to everyone as my ultimate love.My cheeks turned pink, but I expressed my agreement with a friendly expression. “I’d love that.”He kissed me again with increasing depth just as his phone started vibrating on the nightstand. His hands reached for the device when a call was displayed on the screen of his phone, and his expression instantly changed.His exhaustion caused him to sit up while he muttered, "I have to take this call."His facial expression sh

    Nicholas Carrington:-The early morning sun barely peeked through the windows as I felt the weight of her still in my arms. Juliet. Her breath warm against my chest, her body still enveloped in the love of my arm, she was curled into me. I hadn’t moved all night. Not when my muscles cramped.Not when I was exhausted. I didn’t care. She needed me. I had to be here for her, and I needed to be.The memory of last night would never settle out in my veins. Fury was still boiling under my skin, and I thought I wanted to track Jared down and finish what I started. But for now, Juliet was safe. She was in my arms, where she was supposed to be. Just as I was beginning to wake up, some sharp voice broke the peace.“What the hell is this?” I shot my eyes open, and my body became rigid.My parents stood over me in matching looks of disgust and fury. Anica was crying, pretending to be innocent, beside them. I tightened my grip around her, framed in my arms instinctively to keep her safe from whate

    Juliet Diaz:-Jared was the perfect gentleman. At least, I said that to myself.But I should have been having a nice meal at an upscale five-star restaurant seated across from him, next to the candle-lit ambiance, the soft music, and him leaning in every time I spoke as if I were the most interesting person in the room.But my mind was elsewhere.On Nicholas. My thighs grabbed on his hands. His mouth is against my skin as he murmurs that I'm his.Jared was telling a story about a business deal. I clenched my hands in my lap, forcing a polite smile. I barely heard a word.He tilted his head, smiled smoothly, and asked: “Are you having fun?”“Yes, of course,” I lied.He moved his hand, grazing his fingers over my hand. “I’m glad. “I wanted tonight to be special,” I nodded, pulling my hand away slightly to raise my finger to grab my wine glass. “It’s been lovely.”He chuckled only slightly as his gaze darkened. “There I have to admit I was surprised you agreed to this date.” I would hav
