Chapter 40: Reunion

Night’s P.O.V

“Goodness, he is alive!” Was the first thing my friends told me as they all but pounced on top of me as soon as I stepped out of the car in front of my faculty.

“Ow! Guys! That hurts!” I tried to warn them as their weight became too unbearable, but it was already too late and the three of us went tumbling to the ground all together.

But even as my back hurt and I think I may have scraped my palm…the laughter echoing all around me instantly made me feel more welcome and at peace than I had felt in the entirety of last week.

“Look at you fools,” Tanya shook her head, her brunette locks flying in the wind as she looked down at Landon, Trey and I still lying on the ground. “Get up before someone sweeps you off like trash!”

“We’re up! We’re up!” Trey called out as he scrambled to his feet and then offered us a hand so we could get off the floor as well.

Honestly, I didn’t mind the tackle one bit. If anything, it helped make me feel at ease now that I was w

  • The Bad Boy's Dirty Little Secret   Chapter 41: The Times that we Missed

    Chapter 41: The Times that we MissedNight’s P.O.V“I was waiting for you.”I paused with my hands on either side of his head; his sudden confession leaving me breathless for a whole minute as I stared into his eyes, trying to decide if what I just heard was real or just a fragment of my imagination.“Wh-hat?” The words came out in a rushed stutter, my eyes boring into his for clarification.Suddenly, a sly smirk played on Kai’s lips as he took hold of my waist and sat up on the bed. The sudden shift in position made my straddle feel awkward and I before long, I found myself sitting on his lap, my arms now wrapped tightly around his shoulder as Kai touched his nose to mine in an affectionate gesture that I was completely unfamiliar with.“Surprised?” He spoke through a sigh, leaning forward so that his face was buried in the crook of my neck, and he took in a whip of my scent. “Hmmm…you smell so good.”I felt his lips vibrate against my neck, and that sensation went straight to places

    Chapter 42: Unfulfilled DesiresNight’s P.O.VI tasted myself on his lips, as Kai ran his tongue on my lower lip before biting down on it to elicit a gasp out of me.Taking advantage of the situation, he thrust his tongue into my mouth and our tongues collided in a battle for dominance as his hands squeezed my waist, before coming between us to pinch one of my nipples.I stalled for a second, and he took advantage of it once again, his tongue exploring every nook and cranny of my mouth before we both broke the kiss for lack of air.My lungs burned from the lack of oxygen, and when I looked up at Kai, he wasn’t in any better shape either. His eyes were glazed over as he panted and his shirt stuck to his skin.It was so warm inside the room, but it had nothing to do with the weather.Finally, he got off the bed to discard off his own shirt, followed by his pants and boxers, until he was standing completely naked in front of my eyes.Fuck!The man was gorgeous. Golden skin, that tousled

    Chapter 43: Dirty Little Secret Kai’s P.O.V I rolled off of Night’s body, his skin sleek with perspiration. The tiny bed didn’t provide enough space for either of us to rest properly, and it was a bit frustrating, but the warmth of Night’s skin was still a pleasant respite from the cold bed next to mine. My breathing evened out slowly, just as Night’s hand wrapped around my torso, pulling me closer to his body so that he could lay his head on my shoulder. His eyes were closed, a peaceful expression on his face despite the labored breath. I reached out with my fingers and wiped at the tear stain from the corner of his eyes, watching as his eyelids fluttered open and his hazel eyes met mine. “You’re not gonna say something cheesy, are you?” I sighed, rubbing my forehead against his. “You were good for a first timer.” Night chuckled. “Just good?” I raised my eyebrows. “Fine…you were great.” “Best you ever had?” “Don’t push it.” He groaned. A laugh escaped my lips as I cuddled

    Chapter 44: Unexpected SurpriseNight’s P.O.V“Did you get everything?” Kai asked as he rushed around the room, trying to find out of any of my belongings have been left behind.“Seriously, Kai…if we hadn't just been having sex, I’d say you’re way to eager to get me out of the room.” I sighed at his attempt to find stuff under the cabinets and even under the bed. “I got everything, Kai. And if there is anything left, then just keep it as a souvenir.”“I’d rather keep you than your underwear.” He grinned, successfully retrieving an old underwear from under the bed and hauling it at me. “But I don’t want to agitate your father and get you locked up again.”I pursed my lips, thinking about how we were going to proceed from here on out.Worry gnawed at me that for Kai, it might become a matter of ‘out of sight, out of mind’, especially now that we already slept together. I knew I was being unreasonable in ways I couldn’t fathom, but I had every right to be worried. Especially since we wer

    Chapter 45: Doomed from the BeginningNight’s P.O.V“R-Rosalie?” I blinked, not quiet believing my eyes. “Is that really you?”“Wow…” She looked at me with a bit of disappointment. “I was expecting a more enthusiastic response from my fiancé.”“I…er…” I had no idea what to say. My heart was thundering so loud, both from shock and fear, that I could hardly hear any other sounds around me.Rosalie Clearwater…the woman that I had been engaged to since I was born…was standing right in front of me…in my condo…past eight o’ clock in the evening.How the fuck did she even get in here? And what on earth was she doing here now of all times?“Weren’t you supposed to get here next month?” I frowned. “That’s what my mother told me.”“Oh, I know!” She exclaimed with a grin, taking my hand and hauling me inside, the door slamming shut behind us automatically.She then went ahead and made herself at home, before patting the space next to her on the couch for me to sit. “But I got here early since my

    Chapter 46: Something FishyKai’s P.O.V“Woah? Am I dreaming?” Was the first thing my mother said to me as soon as she opened the door and found me standing at the doorstep of my parent’s house.“Apparently not,” I gave her a sheepish smile as she moved aside to let me in. “Is Kia home?”“Yes, and so is your father.”I stopped halfway while taking off my shoes. “Dad’s home?” I looked back at my mom, who had just shut the door behind me.“Yes,” she smiled gently as she beckoned me inside. “He came home for the week. He’ll be leaving again next week.”Dad was a surgeon, whose profession kept him away from the house most of the year, so it was indeed a rare sight to see him home. I was happy to know that he was going to stay home for the entire week, so that my mom won’t feel as lonely. But that also meant that my conversation with Kia would be delayed further.Mom brought me to the dinner table where Kia and dad were already seated. But even though dad thought it was a pleasant surprise

    Chapter 47: Trouble in ParadiseKai’s P.O.V“Kai? Is that you?” Devon’s voice came from the other end of the line as I got out of my house and headed towards the garage. “Fucker! Where the hell are you? And who the fuck answered the phone before?”“I’m at my house, idiot! And that was Kia!” I spoke through gritted teeth as I fumbled with the garage keys. “Where the fuck are you guys and how did you end up meeting Night?”As far as I knew, he was supposed to be in his condo, staying out of trouble. Don’t tell me he went to some bar to get drunk and found himself in trouble?There was a sense of dread settling in the pit of my stomach and I didn’t like it one bit.“Oh, thank god! That saves me the explanation.” Devon let out a sigh of relief. “I’m at Landon’s place. Come quick. Your man is wasted as fuck.”“Wait…what?” I temporarily paused my struggle with the garage keys to listen to him properly.I didn’t know which part I should be surprised about first. The part where he said he was

    Chapter 48: ReversalKai’s P.O.VThe morning sunlight filtered in through the curtains, making me squirm in my sleep as I adjusted my aching arms to better fit the person who was sleeping next to me.Even though I wasn’t fully awake yet, I knew exactly who was beside me. There was no way that I would mistake his scent…the warmth of his skin.I kept my eyes closed, savoring the last few minutes of sleep before I would finally have to wake up and face the day.But then, I felt Night stir in my arms, before he turned to face me, burying his face in the crook of my neck, his hands resting on my stomach as his hot breath fanned my skin, making me shiver.“Good morning.” He grumbled, his voice a hoarse whisper.“Morning.” I smiled, still keeping my eyes closed. “How’s the hangover.”“Not as bad as I thought it would be,” he yawned, before burying his face further into my neck. “Hmmm…you smell good.”“And you stink of alcohol.” I retorted. “Go wash up.”“Don’t wanna…” he whispered, shifting

    Chapter 115: A Glimpse into the FutureKai’s P.O.V“You went to play gold with Mr. Williams?” Night folded his arms across his chest, his frown deepening with every passing second. “The School principal?”“Come on, babe, it was just a stupid game!” I sighed, rubbing at my temples. “I didn’t even score and stood off to the side listening to him talk about charity and stuff!”“You know what he’s like, Kai! How could you?” He snapped, his temper flaring.And to add insult to injury, Kelly rounded the corner at that moment, her backpack slung over her shoulders as she picked up an apple from the fruit basket on the table. “Also…word has it that he targets hot DILF’s, especially married ones.” She added with a smug smile.“Kelly! What the hell!” I snapped at my seventeen year old daughter, who simply shrugged and stood to the side, munching on her apple. “You’re just making this worse!”“I’m just saying what the mom’s are saying.” She shrugged again.“And how, pray tell, do you know what a

    Chapter 114: AlwaysKai’s P.O.VSix years later…The beach stretched out before us in endless waves of sapphire and teal, the soft rush of the tide a soothing soundtrack to the most important day of our lives.We had chosen Night’s father’s beach house in Florida as the venue—an idyllic spot with sprawling, sun-kissed sand and a gentle breeze that carried the salt of the sea.A pathway of white rose petals led from the entrance of the beach house to the altar, which was an artful arch made of intertwined driftwood, adorned with clusters of white lilies and ivy.Delicate strings of fairy lights were wrapped around nearby palm trees, and lanterns hung at varying heights, swaying gently with the breeze as they caught the late afternoon sunlight, creating a warm golden glow.A canopy of sheer white fabric fluttered above rows of white wooden chairs, draped with ribbons of blue and green that mirrored the colors of the ocean.Guests filled the seats, familiar faces and old friends from col

    Chapter 113: A Post-Engagement Treat Kai’s P.O.VThe last of our friends were starting to head out, their faces lit up with tired but content smiles, like they’d just had a blast. It had been a good celebration, and I could tell they were happy for us.First, Cole stepped up, his tall frame looming in the doorway as he flashed us his usual wide grin. "You two really knocked it out of the park with this place," he said, throwing an arm around Night’s shoulder and giving him a playful nudge. "I’m glad you guys are starting fresh. Don’t mess it up, alright?"Night rolled his eyes, but the smile on his face said he wasn’t actually annoyed. "We’ll try not to, Cole.""Good. Well, I’ll leave you to it. Don’t go getting into too much trouble now." He gave us a mock salute before stepping out the door, waving as he disappeared into the hallway. Landon, with his usual goofy grin, was holding Devon’s hand like he couldn’t quite bring himself to let go. "This night was awesome, guys," he said,

    Chapter 112: This Is HomeKai’s P.O.VA few days later, we drove to the condo unit that Jonathan had previously bought for Night to live in, so he could live off-campus and stop sharing a room with me. The same condo that I had visited several months ago, when I had still been fighting with myself over where my heart truly belonged.But now… now we were here together with his parents’ blessing, and we were here not because of Night’s obligation to this family and their business, but because we were free to use this as we wished.And we wanted to.The condo that my sister had helped me get previously may have been cheap, but it was tiny and not enough room to have sleepovers and host our friends. But this one was definitely bigger and brighter. Perfect for me and Night.Tonight the condo was filled with the kind of warmth and noise that made the walls feel more alive than mere brick and plaster. Laughter bounced from one corner to another as our friends, our found family, filled the sp

  • The Bad Boy's Dirty Little Secret   Chapter 111: Just Me and Him

    Chapter 111: Just Me and HimKai’s P.O.VHow foolish had I been? The whole time, I was thinking that the only lives that would be affected by the revelation would be mine and Night’s.I didn't stop to think about the consequences it would have on their family. I had been so… selfish.I didn't even consider that Night might end up feeling horrible because of the things that I had brought to light.What if things turned out badly? What if Night ended up hating me? I couldn't help the wave of relief that washed over me as I watched their family embrace each other. Thank God it didn't turn out that way.I may have acted rashly and opened wounds that I shouldn't have opened, but at least, in the end, it all worked out to be in their favor.I guess it was mostly thanks to Jonathan finally having his senses return. If he had been too stubborn to see his faults, we probably would be having a very different scenario now.Still, I felt horrible for my own actions. I felt like a child who could

  • The Bad Boy's Dirty Little Secret   Chapter 110: Once A House, Now A Home

    Chapter 110: Once A House, Now A HomeNight’s P.O.VWhen I turned to look at my mother, I had this undeniable feeling that our family was going to crumble. There was no other way to go about it—what was the right way of proceeding with your life when you suddenly find out that the man of your family turned out to have never loved you at all? That instead he had someone else occupying his heart, whether he admitted it or not?Thinking about it that way made me realize something else as well, the other side as to why my father had kept the truth. Just like Rosalie had said during her earlier fit, why would any woman want to waste her life being married to a gay man who could never love her the way she wants to be loved and never need her physically in the way that she wants to be needed?My father hadn't held back on the truth not only because of his troubled past, but because he was holding this family together…because he didn’t want me to grow up with only one parent, facing prejudice

  • The Bad Boy's Dirty Little Secret   Chapter 109: A New Perspective

    Chapter 109: A New PerspectiveNight’s P.O.VI stared at him, letting myself absorb what he had just said. Part of me felt sorry for him; the incident with Matthias must have changed him so much that he turned his worldview around in a complete 180.But the other half was angry at myself for feeling pity for him. Angry at him, because I had deserved better than how he had treated me.“You of all people should know better than anyone that being gay isn’t some kind of disease,” I spat, “or a hobby that you can expect me to give up and move on when it’s no longer of any interest to me. You got angry at Kai when he told you that you never truly loved anyone in your life. How would you feel if I said the same thing and told you that what you and Matthias had wasn’t real? That it wasn’t valid because he wasn’t a woman?”He didn’t say anything, but from the way he looked at me I knew he was listening intently to what I was saying. Finally—when was the last time he did so? I couldn’t recall.

    Chapter 108: Stray from the PathNight’s P.O.VI felt my eyes go wide, the room spinning out of focus around me as my father’s words echoed in the back of my mind.My breath caught in his throat, rendering me mute. I didn’t know what to think, what to say. To be honest, I felt quite numb, as though the floor has fallen out from beneath me and I was in a free fall, not knowing when I was going to land or if I was even going to land at all.The sharp thud of my mother dropping to the floor beside my father jolted me back to the room; her face was pale, eyes wide and vacant, mirroring the confusion I felt.The name—Matthias—was stuck on repeat in my head like a broken tape recorder. ‘Matthias, Matthias. Your father is just like you…’Just like me.The man who had always stood tall and indomitable now sat crumpled, broken by memories that seem more powerful than anything I could have imagined. I just couldn’t fathom, couldn’t grasp the fact that what he had just said was actually the trut

    Chapter 107: Just Like YouKai’s P.O.VTaking advantage of the stunned expression on his face, I pushed him back as I released his hand, watching him stumble backwards.“And for the record,” I continued when I realized that Jonathan was too stunned to speak, “I’ll have you know that I haven’t ruined anything. This was bound to happen eventually, because you are a hypocrite for not only forgetting Matthias but also for turning against your own heart.”The words just gushed out of my mouth, faster than I could think things through. I didn’t stop to wonder whether I was saying the right things. Maybe I wasn’t. But it didn’t matter to me, because right now, all that I wanted to do was hurt him, just as badly as he had hurt Night.“Maybe you moved on so quickly because you are a selfish bastard who has never truly loved anyone in your life,” I spat, my temper getting the best of me.“That’s enough,” Night’s mother started to say, but I drowned her out, my words spilling out in an angry rus
