King stared at Payton whose legs staggered and then settled on the floor gently.Was she being sentimental because of what he had said?If he knew that he would be getting this reaction from her, he might have told her since.In fact, he would have told her that the moment he found out.“No one believed me,” she started as she picked on her fingers.“Only Savanah did, though.”“Ah… Savannah is my friend, but she has traveled out of the country again,” she said as if he had asked her who Savannah was.“Even my father didn’t believe me. No one did. In fact, it got to a point that I started to believe that maybe, I had done it on purpose. Maybe I had gone to your room that night by myself… or maybe I had set you up like you had claimed…” she inhaled and shook her head.“The truth is not always what we see, right?” She chuckled.“Even Ava did not believe me and that was painful because she knew so well that I would not have done that.”‘But she set you up, dummy.’King thought inwardly.W
“What if I told you that the feeling is mutual?” He asked amidst laughter, enjoying every bit of anger that was on her face.“I hate you so so much!” She shrieked and tried to slap his arm again, but he was quick to catch it.He dragged her down to his position, her face just a few inches away from his.“We…” King started, his breath fanning her cheek.“Are we ever going to stop fighting and probably get on the same page?” He asked, almost in a whisper.Payton stared at his pink lips and then breathed out heavily. “I doubt that, asshole.”She pushed him away and then stood upright. She adjusted her clothes and then walked away.King leaned in the chair comfortably, placed his index finger on his lips, and then smiled.“So cute.”He does not know exactly what was cute, but, ‘so cute.’===Payton exhaled as she stabbed the another piece of the stir-fried beef and put it in her mouth.It had been a week and a couple of days since she had that discussion with King and to her greatest surp
King couldn’t believe that he was doing this right now. It shouldn’t be right because Payton was so wasted, but he couldn’t bring himself to pull back either. The feeling of her lips on his was so intense, and he couldn’t stop himself from licking her lips like it was a cherry. He slowly pulled her by the waist, but she slipped once more into his arms. He laughed softly, unable to believe that Payton was actually in his arms. "Think about it, you wouldn’t be able to leave my hold if you keep doing this. So, you have all the time in the world to leave now," he said softly."You talk too much," she mumbled as she placed both hands on either side of his face.King growled as he looked into her drunken eyes. "I don’t want to talk too much anymore," he whined as he pulled her head down into a kiss.He could feel her hand all over his body, and he loved it. Their kisses turned sloppy, and Payton tried to slide his shirt off. She was literally wrestling with it at that point. King softly
“Fucking fuck!” Payton screamed as soon as she entered the room and locked it behind her.She stood transfixed in the middle of the room, covered her mouth with her palms, and then stared into a space.Hold on… did she really have sex with… KING?!No. No way that would happen.That would have never happened.But… How can she explain their naked body joined together on the couch in the morning?Did he really take advantage of her?There was no way she would let King have se—And the memories of the previous night came crashing into her head which made her widen her eyes and then scream."Don’t look so naive. Your dick is shaped like a banana, and I think I had imagined it getting into me once, right?"The words she had said hit her head and she widened her eyes again, this time like it was going to pop out of her head.“THE FUCK— I SAID THAT?!” She screamed at no one in particular and then shook her head.“No way I said that. Jesus! That is defamation!”“But… we truly had sex?” She sl
“Oh, shit! Are you blind?!”Payton cussed through the loud noise from the speaker as she glanced down at her white shirt that was now stained with red wine and then raised her head to look at the man who had bumped into her.He definitely was not paying attention to where he was going. His head buried in his phone was proof on its own.“I… I am sorry. I was not looking,” he smacked his tongue and glanced at the screen of his phone again.“You definitely were not looking,” Payton hissed as she threw the man a cold stare.She does not know what was making her more angry tonight. The man not looking exactly sorry as his eyes were still on his phone, or her step sister… hosting a birthday party for her fiancé.When the man did not say anything anymore and only looked around like he was looking for someone while he took quick glances at his phone, she hissed and pushed past him.As she arrived at the bathroom and stood in front of the mirror, the words her stepsister Ava had said to her fl
The harsh rays of sun that glimmered through the window made Payton squint her brows and then roll on her stomach.Her head banged so terribly that she felt like it was going to come off from her neck.Groaning and moaning gently, her phone rang, giving a loud sound and she hissed again.She stretched her hand and dropped it on the bed beside her to search for the phone that was usually beside her on the bed.However, it did not take long before she realized that she was not touching the bed… but a skin and that that was not her phone’s ringing tone.Hold on… her hand was on a skin. A person’s body………“Dariel.”When the sound finally stopped and the voice of the raspy man came up, Payton snapped her eyes open and then sat up.Realizing that she was stark naked, she laid in the bed back and pulled the cover on her body before she let out a scream.King let out a grunt as he did not get what Dariel had just said. The woman’s sudden scream would not let him.Waking up, naked with a w
Payton felt her legs weaken as she watched the video and she fell to the ground instantly.Her eyes dilated and she dropped her phone.She was trending with this unknown man on the internet. Their obscene videos were on the internet.“You are a disgraceful woman…”Max’s voice rang in her ear and tears dropped from her eyes.She had no idea what was going on and she could swear that she had not gotten into this man's bed on her own.The bell rang and she watched the man move over to the door.She didn’t know who he was talking to, but when he returned to the room, he walked past her and headed to the bathroom again.“There is another bathroom over there. Use it, and get your clothes on. We’re leaving here. The paparazzi is here.”That was all she heard before she heard the loud bang of the door.She did not see his face, but she could feel the anger that was oozing from his voice.It was definitely not a coincidence that this man and she had a bit of a clash the previous night and had
CHAPTER 4. KING THORN.“Why did you do that?!” Payton shouted the moment she settled in the back seat with the man whose name she still did not know yet.King.King?Those reporters called him that!His name was King!King, my ass.She hissed.“It’s you,” she turned around as she heard King say to the driver.“Man, I had to come out here myself,” the other man said.“How did it…” he stopped talking as his eyes landed on the woman beside her King.Instead, he ignited the engine and then drove away.“Where do we go?” He asked.“Where do you stay?” King turned to ask Payton.“Why?“Where?”Payton turned her head to look out of the mirror and then closed her eyes as she heard her phone ring from her bag.“If you think it would be okay to go home alone, then, talk so that he would stop the car. You probably don’t know the amount of people that have your face imprinted in their memory already,” he said, not sparing her a glance.Payton spaced out for a while, wondering
