2025-03-06 22:00:07The second they got back to the penthouse, Amelia pushed him against the wall, her lips crashing against his. Adrian groaned in surprise but quickly recovered, his hands finding her hips and squeezing hard.
"Impatient, are we?" he teased against her lips.
"Shut up," she muttered, reaching for his tie and yanking it free.
"You hated watching her touch me," he murmured against her lips.
Amelia moaned as he lifted her effortlessly, pressing her against the cool glass window overlooking the city. "I hated that she thought she could."
Adrian growled, his teeth grazing her throat. "You should have told me to fuck her off."

Surrendering to the Billionaire 25. Steamy Possession
"Mmm, you taste even better than I imagined," Adrian groaned, diving back in for another deep taste.His hands gripped Amelia’s hips, holding her steady as he began to eat her out like a starving man. His tongue delved between her folds, stroking and teasing her most sensitive spots with practiced ease.Amelia could only hold on for dear life, her knuckles turning white as she gripped the couch tightly. Adrian stood up abruptly, pulling Amelia to her feet. He grabbed her hand, interlacing their fingers, and led her towards the bedroom. Each step was deliberate, purposeful, fueled by the intense desire that consumed both of them.They reached the bed, the headboard slamming against the wall with each labored breath. Adrian stepped back, letting go of Amelia's hand, only

The sun was barely peeking through the floor-to-ceiling windows when Amelia stirred, her body deliciously sore from the night before, a delicious reminder of last night’s passionate encounters. The warmth of Adrian’s arms around her was unmistakable, his solid frame pressed against her back, holding her close as if he had no intention of letting her go.The feeling of warm, firm hands sliding up her bare back. A low hum of satisfaction escaped her lips before she even opened her eyes. She could already tell Adrian was in one of his moods, the kind where he wanted to remind her exactly who she belonged to before the day even began.His hand slid down her stomach, fingertips grazing her bare skin, sending shivers down her spine.“You’re awake,” Adrian murmured, his lips brushing the shell of her ear. His voice was husky from sleep, thick with unspoken desire. His lips trailed a slow, deliberate path down her neck, his breath hot again

Amelia barely had time to catch her breath before Adrian had dragged her out of the gala. Not that she minded. The second the penthouse door slammed shut behind them, he was on her."You enjoyed that, didn’t you?" Adrian murmured, backing her up against the wall. His hands caged her in, his presence overwhelming."Enjoyed what?" she teased, tilting her head as if innocent.Adrian chuckled darkly, his fingers trailing up her thigh, gathering the fabric of her dress. "Testing me.""I wasn’t…"His hand slid between her legs, finding her soaked. "Try again," he murmured against her lips, his fingers stroking, teasing.

Adrian had barely settled into bed beside Amelia when his phone buzzed on the nightstand. He ignored it at first, too caught up in the feeling of her warmth against him. But when it buzzed again, this time, twice in rapid succession, a cold sense of unease settled in his gut.Reluctantly, he reached for the device, squinting at the screen. It was Marcus, his head of security. He got down from the bed and walked to the balcony, not wanting to disturb Amelia.Marcus: Sir, you need to come to the office. Now.Marcus: It’s Celeste.The night was unusually quiet. Too quiet.Amelia didn’t notice it at first, the eerie stillness that had settled over the city. She was still tangled in the warmt

The storm outside was nothing compared to the one brewing inside Adrian Black.Rain lashed against the penthouse windows, casting jagged shadows across the sleek marble floors. The city stretched out beyond the glass, oblivious to the war that had just been declared. But Adrian? He was already preparing for battle.Amelia sat on the couch, watching him with narrowed eyes as he poured himself another drink. He hadn't stopped moving since they got back. Calls. Emails. A meeting scheduled in less than an hour. The man was a machine. But she knew him well enough now to see past the mask.Celeste’s death had shaken him. And that terrified her more than anything.The next morning, the air in Adrian’s office wa

The rain had stopped, but the storm was far from over.The name Victor Calloway settled over the room like a funeral shroud.Adrian stood motionless by the window, his reflection barely visible against the city’s shimmering skyline. His grip on the glass of whiskey was tight, the amber liquid untouched. The air in his office was suffocating, thick with something unspoken.Amelia sat at the edge of his desk, fingers curling around the edges as she studied him. She had seen Adrian furious before. She had seen him ruthless, even lethal. But this?This was something else.“Adrian,” she said, stepping closer, breaking the silence. “Talk t

The night was thick with anticipation, the city humming beneath them as Adrian’s car sped through the darkened streets. The air inside the armored SUV was electric, the hum of the city passing in a blur beyond the tinted windows. Not from the mission ahead, but from something far more dangerous, the raw tension between Adrian and Amelia.Adrian sat in the backseat, his expression unreadable as he checked his gun, sliding a full magazine into place with a sharp click. Across from him, Amelia mirrored his movements, her fingers steady as she followed his lead. She wasn’t the same woman who had walked into his life months ago.Now? Now she was part of the game.She could feel his intensity, the way his hand gripped the gun too tightly, the rigid set of his jaw. He hadn’t spoken much since leaving Black Enterprises, but his energy filled every inch of the car.The interior of the car was dim, the faint glow of streetlights casting sharp angl

Linden Street was quiet. Too quiet. Adrian didn’t like it.The black SUV sped down the empty streets of downtown, the air inside charged with anticipation. The address on the card burned in Adrian’s mind, a calculated invitation from Victor Calloway, a message wrapped in a challenge.But if Victor thought he held the upper hand, he was about to learn just how wrong he was.Sitting in the backseat of the blacked-out SUV, his arm resting on the door, his fingers tapping against his thigh in a slow, deliberate rhythm, he watched the darkened building ahead. No movement. No guards. No visible threats.That alone was the biggest warning sign.Marcus

Surrendering to the Billionaire 48. The Distance Between Us
The city stretched beneath Amelia like an endless sea of lights, but she barely noticed. She stood by Sarah’s apartment window, arms wrapped around herself, as she stared at the city through the rain-streaked window, her fingers curled around a cup of tea she hadn’t touched. Her thoughts had become an exhausting cycle of questions, ones she wasn’t sure she wanted the answers to.The walls of Sarah’s apartment closed in around Amelia like a cage. It had been three days since she walked away from Adrian, but the weight of him still pressed against her, a phantom she couldn’t escape, she still felt like she was suffocating under his presence.Why had Adrian waited so long to tell her the truth?Had he ever actually planned to tell her at all?
Surrendering to the Billionaire 47. The Breaking Point
The silence in Adrian’s penthouse was deafening.Amelia gripped the journal tightly as she stepped into the hallway, her breath unsteady, her heart slamming against her ribs. Every step away from him felt like an impossible weight pressing down on her. The truth had shattered everything she thought she knew, leaving her standing at the edge of a precipice with no idea whether she was about to fall, or if she’d already fallen too far.Behind her, Adrian hadn’t moved. He stood in the doorway of his study, his expression unreadable, his storm gray eyes locked onto her like a predator watching its prey make a fatal mistake.She should have kept walking. She had to get out. Out of this penthouse. Out of Adrian’s intoxicating hold. Out of the carefully craf
Surrendering to the Billionaire 46. A Truth Worth Hiding
The city was alive below them, a sea of shimmering lights stretching beyond the penthouse windows. The skyline was breathtaking, but Amelia barely noticed it. Her mind was consumed by one thought, one truth Adrian refused to share.Adrian had secrets — deep, buried truths that he refused to share. He knew her before they ever met. And now, she was done waiting for answers.She set her wine glass down, turning toward Adrian, who was seated across from her, his storm gray eyes flickering over the rim of his own drink. He was watching her, the way he always did like he was reading her thoughts before she even spoke them.She hated how much he owned her, not just in bed, but in every single way that mattered."Are
Surrendering to the Billionaire 45. Stolen Kisses
Amelia woke to the sensation of warm lips trailing soft kisses along her bare shoulder. Her body was sore but pleasantly so, a reminder of the night before the way Adrian had claimed her over and over again, his name still lingering on her lips. She shifted slightly, feeling the delicious ache between her thighs, and sighed as his arms tightened around her.“You’re awake,” Adrian murmured against her skin, his voice thick with sleep. His breath was warm, his lips tracing lazy circles against her collarbone.Amelia stretched, her muscles still languid from exhaustion, and turned in his embrace to face him. The morning light filtered through the sheer curtains, casting a golden hue over his sharp jawline and tousled dark hair. His blue eyes were hooded with satisfaction, but there was something else hidden beneath the
Surrendering to the Billionaire 44. Unbuttoned and Unleashed
Adrian's gaze raked over Amelia’s body, taking in the sight of her glistening skin and swollen lips. "You look good like this," he agreed, his voice rough with satisfaction. "But we're not done yet."He pulled away from her, his hands moving to unclasp her bra. She shrugged out of it, letting it fall to the floor beside the bed. He pushed her down onto the mattress, his weight pressing against her as he kissed a trail down her neck to her collarbone.His fingers dipped between her legs, teasing the sensitive flesh there. She could feel the heat of him, the hard length of him pressing against her entrance.Amelia squirmed beneath him, her hips thrusting up to meet his touch. His fingers were cold and wet, and she could feel herself growing more aroused by the second.Adrian chuckled against her skin, his fingers sliding deeper inside her. "You're so wet for me," he murmured, his voice husky with desire. "I love that you're mine."She arched he
Surrendering to the Billionaire 43. Surrender to Sin
“Tell me,” Adrian murmured, dragging his lips down her neck, “who do you belong to?”The arrogance. The sheer dominance in his voice made her head spin. But she wasn’t one to surrender so easily.She tilted her chin defiantly. “No one.”Adrian stilled. Then, in a swift motion, he lifted her, her legs wrapping around his waist as he pressed her harder against the mirror.“No one?” His voice was rough now, his control slipping.She smirked against his lips. “That’s what I said.”Something in him snapped. His mouth crashed onto he
Surrendering to the Billionaire 42. The Game of Control
The night was far from over.Amelia had spent the last hour mingling with some of the most powerful people in the business world, yet her mind was tethered to only one, Adrian Black. Every glance, every smirk, every damn moment of tension between them gnawed at her like an unsolved mystery.Standing by the sleek marble bar, Amelia took a slow sip of her champagne, feeling the weight of Adrian’s gaze from across the room. He was speaking with a group of executives, his posture relaxed, but she knew better. Adrian was never just relaxed, he was always watching, always strategizing. And right now?He was focused on her.Her lips curled into a slow smirk. Two could play this game.
Surrendering to the Billionaire 41. The Return to Normal
The world had moved on. Cavendish was gone. Lucas was just a memory. The battle with Elizabeth Cavendish was over. The war had been won. And yet, Amelia felt no relief, only the hum of something unfinished pressing against her chest.The morning air inside the penthouse was crisp, the skyline stretching beyond the glass walls like an untouched painting. The city was waking up, buzzing with life, but inside Adrian’s penthouse, everything was too quiet.Amelia stretched beneath the silk sheets, blinking against the light. The bed beside her was empty, the space where Adrian had slept cool to the touch. Typical.Pushing herself up, she slipped out of bed and pulled on a robe before stepping into the vast living room. There he was, Adrian Black, perfectly composed, dressed
Surrendering to the Billionaire 40. Is It The End of Cavendish?
The black SUVs tore through the winding French countryside, the scent of burning rubber mixing with the crisp night air. The estate was behind them, but the weight of what had just happened clung to the air like smoke after a fire.Lucas sat across from them, small, silent. His little hands were balled into fists in his lap, his blue eyes darting between them, but he wasn’t shaking. He wasn’t crying. He was just watching.Elizabeth had lost Lucas. And that meant she had lost everything.Inside the vehicle, the tension was thick. Adrian drove with precision, his eyes flicking to the rearview mirror every few seconds, checking for tails. Amelia sat beside Adrian, her heart still racing, the echoes of gunfire ringing in her ears.
