Entering Adrian's boardroom felt like stepping into a world of corporate elegance. The room exuded an air of power and sophistication, with its sleek design and polished surfaces. I marveled at the grandeur of the space, realizing that this was where significant business decisions took shape.Adrian had asked me to accompany him, providing a glimpse into the professional side of his life. It was a stark contrast to the intimate moments we had shared, making it easier to momentarily push aside the memory of the morning's unexpected closeness.The massive table at the center of the room caught my attention, the sleek surface seemingly ready to host crucial discussions and strategic planning.The high-backed leather chairs surrounding it added an aura of authority, and I couldn't help but feel a twinge of excitement being present in such a prestigious setting.My gaze wandered to the large windows offering a breathtaking view of the city skyline. It was a reminder that the decisions made
As the lady handed me my freshly minted passport from the passport agency, I felt a surge of gratitude and mumbled a sincere "Thank you." with a dreamy inflection in my voice, I remarked, "I can't believe you're going to France."The excitement and disbelief mirrored my own sentiments as the prospect of the upcoming trip began to sink in. France, a place I had only dreamed of visiting, now lay within the pages of this small, official booklet. It was a surreal moment.Adrian had spared me a few minutes to get the process done. Thankfully because of his connections I was able to get through in mere minutes. Everything was upfront which made the process a lot easier.Lyra's eyes sparkled with mischief as she suggested, "Why not set me up with Mr. Lockwood, the handsome brother?"I chuckled, dismissing the idea, "We're not that close. I only work for Mr. Lockwood. Nothing more." I assured her.My thoughts drifting to the secret affair I had stumbled upon between Sebastian and Gabriella. H
Time seemed to freeze as a mixture of surprise and vulnerability consumed me. Sebastian's kiss was demanding, leaving me breathless and bewildered.I tried to pull away, but his hold tightened, making escape impossible. My attempts to speak were met with a soft laughter from him, amplifying my sense of helplessness.In that moment, the room blurred, and all that remained was the intensity of the kiss and the conflicting emotions swirling within meāshyness, apprehension, and a realization that this encounter would leave an indelible mark on the canvas of my memories.With one hard push I managed to push Sebastian away before quickly rushing outside the guestroom so he could not grab a hold of me once again.I wiped my lips, there was no denying Sebastian was a very good kisser, but his disgusting behavior was not sitting well with me. How could he be sleeping with his brother's girlfriend and then kiss me? How awful can he be!His kiss was somewhat different from the one who took my vi
The sight of Adrian's sleek private jet leaves me momentarily speechless, my eyes widening in awe as we approach in his car. The luxurious exterior and the sheer opulence of the aircraft evoke a sense of excitement, and the anticipation of a trip to France with my boss adds an extra layer of thrill to the experience."Impressed?" His voice broke through my excitement."Everyday." I say, from his magnificent house to his magnificent car, to his magnificent jet, all leaving me stunned at how rich he was.Memories from yesterday's intimate encounter in the bathroom resurface, creating a subtle undercurrent beneath the excitement.The steam-filled room, the sensation of his bare skin against mine, the vulnerability of that shared momentāeach detail replays in my mind. The professional setting of the impending business trip collides with the lingering intimacy, leaving me in a state of subtle disarray.The hum of the car engine becomes a backdrop to my contemplation, and I steal a glance a
Waking from a peaceful slumber, I'm momentarily disoriented until I realize there are strong arms wrapped securely around my waist.The familiarity of the cologne that envelops me instantly registers, and I know without a doubt that I'm in Adrian's arms. The realization brings a mix of surprise and comfort.As the instinct to jump out of bed kicks in, the powerful allure of his cologne grips me, and for a moment, I pause. It dawns on me that Adrian must be asleep, providing an unexpected source of warmth and comfort.The idea of slipping away crosses my mind, but the force to stay in my boss's strong arms is strangely compelling. In this moment, it feels right, and the notion of disturbing his peaceful sleep becomes a secondary concern.Blushing shyly, I become aware that once again, Adrian is behind me. The closeness and proximity trigger a flurry of thoughts, and I wonder if he's typically this touchy and affectionate with others. Before I can delve further into my contemplation, th
Lyra's povI couldn't contain the excitement bubbling within me as I stepped into the renowned club, a place with a reputation that preceded itself. This wasn't just any strip club; it was the very one where Stella, my dear friend, had lost her virginity.The allure of this establishment, coupled with the fact that it was owned by Stella's billionaire boss, hinted at a audience that was undoubtedly high-end and influential.The anticipation of my first night as a stripper at this exclusive venue fueled my enthusiasm. I sauntered through the dimly lit entrance, taking in the sultry ambiance that echoed with the throb of distant music.The air was charged with an intoxicating blend of excitement and possibility, and I couldn't help but revel in the prospect of what the night held.The dressing room, adorned with mirrors, females and adorned with a touch of glamour, became my haven as I prepared for the performance ahead.In the lively dressing room, snippets of conversations floated thr
Returning home with Adrian after a dinner with one of his clients, a wave of fatigue washed over me. The evening had been filled with discussions, negotiations, and the constant need to be on my professional game. Now, the comfort of being back in my room offered a welcome reprieve.I entered the familiar room; a sigh escaped my lips. The day had been long, but the sanctuary of my room provided a sense of solace.Despite the weariness, a subtle satisfaction lingered. The dinner had been successful, and I could sense Adrian's appreciation for the effort I had put into being professional.I prepared to unwind and leave the formalities of the night behind. A quiet sense of contentment settled over me.In the intimate space of my room, the fatigue of the day lingered. I moved to shed the remnants of formality. The stilettos came off first, the click echoing in the room as a sigh of relief escaped my lips. Next, I pulled my hair down, the cascade of strands feeling like a small act of libe
Entering the lavish restaurant, I couldn't help but feel a pang of unease. The atmosphere dripped with sophistication, and I, in my simple elegance, stood out like a lone daisy in a bouquet of orchids.The air buzzed with hushed conversations, laughter, and the clinking of crystal glasses.As we walked, my eyes involuntarily scanned the room, taking in the dazzling array of glamorous guests. My fingers fidgeted with the fabric of my dress, a sudden self-awareness settling in.Then, he was greeted by a stunning brunetteātall, confident, and exuding an allure that left me feeling inadequately subtle. They spoke in Spanish, a language I had no idea Adrian could wield so effortlessly, one more thing to add to his impeccable resume.The mellifluous words washed over me, and I couldn't help but feel a twinge of jealousy as the woman happily shared a connection I was not privy to, kissing Adrian on the cheek.Adrian turned to me, his eyes momentarily meeting mine. "Stella, this is Sofia, an
