022. “C’mon, Cole, you have to help me tell him. Axel would say no if I told him.” Amber ran after Cole, who was heading out of the house. When they got to the door, she blocked his path. “Little brat, Axel listens to you more, and I’m sure he wouldn’t hesitate if you ask him yourself.” Amber shook her head. “I’m embarrassed. Axel sees me as the smartest girl he has ever know. Asking him would sound like I’m lying and he wouldn’t believe me. I’m really behind in Math. You know it’s not my favorite subject.” Cole rolled his eyes. “But you were the overall best student in Math back in high school.” “That was high school. This is College,” she held his hand and shook him. “Please, please, please ask Axel to be my tutor for the semester. I promise not to bother you if you can just do this one thing for me.” Cole sighed. “Promise?” Amber nodded. “Cool then. I’ll tell him when I get back.” He wanted to walk past her but she spread out her arms. “No, tell him now.” “Amber
023. Their lips collided in a passionate crash, sending shivers down her spine. Axel's kiss was intense, all-consuming, and utterly intoxicating. His tongue teased hers, igniting a fire that spread through her veins like wildfire. As he deepened the kiss, Amber's thoughts dissolved into chaos. Her heart pounded, her senses reeled, and her body melted into his. She was lost in the storm of sensations, unable to escape the torrent of desire he unleashed. Axel's grip on her wrists tightened, his fingers intertwining with hers as he explored the depths of her mouth. The world around them dissolved, leaving only the thrum of their racing hearts and the sweet, sweet torture of their kiss. As Axel's lips ravished hers, Amber's knees weakened, her body swaying into his. His hold on her wrists anchored her, keeping her upright. Axel's kiss intensified, his tongue dancing with hers in perfect harmony. Amber's senses blurred, her mind foggy with desire. Suddenly, Axel broke away, gasp
024. “Where are you going dressed like that?” Axel asked the minute Amber stepped into the living room, dressed in the black mini dress Tyler had picked out for her. After what happened between them, they hadn’t spoken to each other even after Amber returned from the shopping mall. She refused to eat lunch, claiming Tyler had already treated her to lunch. Axel knew she was trying to avoid him and he was trying to patch things up with her but she wouldn’t give him the chance to. Amber hung her handbag on her shoulder. “I’m going for Bryan’s birthday party.” Axel’s eyes narrowed. He scanned the dress from the top to the bottom. The gown didn’t do any justice to hiding her curves. If anything, it only brought out the beauty of her body, and Axel hated the fact that it would leave other guys staring at her especially that Tyler guy, whom he suspected to be interested in Amber. “It’s a birthday party, Amber, not a club.” he replied and Amber rolled her eyes. “What difference d
025. Axel quickly pulled away from the kiss and placed his hand on her shoulders. “Cat eyes, you’re not yourself.” Amber straddled him, her eyes heating up with desire. “I’m perfectly fine. Just showing how much I want you, that’s all.” she reached to kiss him again, but he placed his index finger on her lips. It was taking every bit of self control in him not to touch her right now. She was affected by the drug and somebody—probably that darn guy called Tyler—put in her drink, and he didn’t want to take advantage of her. His eyes widened when she began moving on his cock. He was getting turned on, and this wasn’t a good time for that. "Amber, stop," Axel protested, his voice hoarse with desire. "You're not thinking straight. This isn't you." But his words fell on deaf ears as Amber continued to grind against him, her eyes burning with a passion he'd never seen before. He tried to push her away, but his body refused to cooperate, his desire overpowering his logic. "Amber,
026. Amber sat in the classroom, her jaw in her palms and embarrassment flooding her cheeks as she recalled everything that happened again. She had no idea she was that bold. “Gosh!” she bit her lower lip as she tried to wrap her head around it all. On one hand, she felt embarrassed cause the fuck? She had made him do things to her, bath her and even tucked her into bed. But on the other hand, she loved it. She loved that he didn’t take advantage of her vulnerability, she loved that he made her feel that way, and she wanted it again, but she couldn’t hide the embarrassment from being the one to straddle him. She had typically avoided him all morning, and whenever their gazes met, there was this mischievous glint in his eyes that made her want to do more. Yet, she couldn’t. She needed to get over this moment first. “Amy!” Jack’s voice jerked her out of her thoughts, and she turned to see Jack and Melissa staring at her worriedly. “Good morning, guys.” she greeted them, moving as
027.Amber gasped when his hand traveled up her thighs right to her underwear. “Do you remember now?” he asked but she shook her head.Axel smirked as he slipped a finger into the slippery, velvet warmth of Amber's core. His finger stroked her, his thumb rubbing her clit in slow, sensual circles. Amber's legs quivered, her body eager for more as she trembled under his touch."You're such a tease," Axel growled, his gaze intense as he watched her squirm against him. "Don't you want to remember how you felt last night, how good it was?"Amber shuddered, biting her lip to stifle a moan. "I-I can't remember," she lied, her voice a breathy whisper.Axel's grin widened, his finger sliding deeper inside her. "Maybe this will help," he purred, his voice a low, tantalizing promise.Amber's eyes fluttered shut, her body clenching around his finger as he began to move with more urgency. "Axel, please," she whimpered, her voice a pleading whisper.Axel chuckled, his thumb pressing against her cli
028.“Girl, you’ve been all smiles since you returned from the classroom. Did Bryan tell you anything?” Melissa whispered as they sat down in the library, going through their math textbooks for the next class.Amber bit down on her lower lip, remembering the insane moment she had with Axel a few minutes ago. If she hadn’t gotten a call from Melissa who asked her to run down to the library —not like she would have listened anyway — and if Axel hadn’t been summoned by the coach, she was certain Axel would have fucked her on the desk like he said.Just the thought of it sent tingling sensations into her stomach, and she was desperate to know what he would do to her next. Melissa watched her friend swoon with a dreamy smile plastered on her lips and raised an eyebrow. She flicked Amber’s forehead, bringing her back to reality.Amber glared at her. “Hey! What gives?” she frowned.“What is the problem with you? You’re definitely swooning, so tell me, what’s going on?” Melissa asked.Amber
29.“And this… here!” Amber dust off her hands with a smile as she placed the last book she had on the table. She looked around and smiled. Her room was in perfect order. Remembering snacks, she rushed downstairs to the fridge and picked out some biscuits and orange juice before heading back to her room.She took a seat on one of the chairs there and opened her math textbook, put a lollipop in her mouth as she flipped through the pages, waiting for Axel to come tutor her.He had returned from school and asked to shower first before they get on with it, and she was more than excited to see what he had in store. She thought she would escape math because she was a mass communication student, but she had no idea it would be given to them as one of their elective courses — she knew Math, but she hated it.Amber heard his door close and adjusted in her seat as she waited for him. When she didn’t hear a knock on her door, she raised a brow and stood to her feet.She opened the door, shocked
112.Axel wore a sleek black suit fit him perfectly, with a white shirt underneath. His black bowtie was tied neatly around his neck, giving him a polished and professional look. His dark hair was styled perfectly, falling in soft waves around his face. And then there were his eyes. Amber could see the intensity of his gaze from her seat as he looked out over the audience, taking in the stunned silence that had fallen over the room.Laura couldn't help swooning while Vera felt like she was on cloud nine.“Oh my gosh! He is so good looking! Why would he hide his face when he's so hot?!” Vera asked.“Maybe he already has a girlfriend and doesn't want shameless ladies drooling all over him.” Gina replied with a smirk, causing Laura and Vera to gasp.“You-”“Shh, everyone! He's about to speak!” Amber cut their argument off, her gaze fixated on Axel. Maverick walked to him and hugged him, smiling widely. Axel returned the hug and then stepped forward, a microphone in his hand. “Good even
111.After Candice left in a fury of anger, Amber turned to face Axel, a smile playing on her lips. “You're really one in a million. I don't even think there's anyone like you in this world,” she said, her voice filled with emotion. “I love you so so much.”Axel pulled her close and kissed her lips. “I love you more, Cat eyes,” he replied, his expression mirroring hers. “You are my woman, and I will never let anyone downplay that part.”Axel meant every word he said and Amber knew it. She couldn't ask for more. This was the kind of life she ordered and appreciated. Axel, on the other hand, had only let Candice go because today was a big day for him, and he didn't want any mishaps. He would have fired her if it weren't for her Father and his Father's relationship. But that didn't mean she was off the hook.Amber cupped his cheeks and chuckled. “You look s dreamy whenever you defend me like that. I want to kiss you so bad, but you're about to do a face reveal in front of the whole world
110.Amber folded her arms, her expression hardening. Just when her night was getting good, Candice had to show her annoying face here. “How may I help you, Candice?” she asked with an annoyed expression on her face.Candice's smile was all too cheery for Amber's liking. “What are you doing in here?”Amber raised an eyebrow at her. “What sort of question is that? Do I need to have a reason to come to the studio?”Candice scoffed. “Look around?” She pointed at everything. “Does any of these belong to you? Whether you work here or not is none of my business, but you can't just walk in here like you own the place.”Amber couldn't believe this lady. What the heck was wrong with her? “For your information, my boyfriend owns this company so I have the right to enter wherever I want to. But of course, you won't understand that because you're too busy being jealous and bitter towards other people's relationship,” she said and Candice gasped. “I have been silent, but I don't think I can keep i
108. FRIDAY… DAY OF THE FASHION SHOW. “Is everything ready?” Ms. June asked Amber, and her team. Amber looked at everyone; the cameramen, Laura, Vera, and Gina before nodding her head. “Yes. Everything and everyone is ready.” Ms. June smiled. “Tonight is the night everyone has been waiting for, team. You got to try your best to get it all on camera. Laura will handle the oral interviews, while Amber will handle the written ones. Gina and Vera are there to assist. In the end, we will merge everything together and make sure it makes headlines.” Everyone nodded, a sense of excitement and anticipation in the air. They all knew what was at stake: a scoop that could make or break their careers. They’d spent weeks preparing, and now it was time for the main event. “Let’s go,” Ms. June declared, leading the team out of the office and into the waiting car. When they had entered, she bade them farewell and whispered in Amber's ears. “Make us proud.” Amber smiled and nodded with a
107. “Is she awake now?” Amber asked as they watched Gina, whose eyes were fluttering, trying to open and adjust to the light. When Gina's eyes were finally opened, her gaze went from the handsome guy, whom she'd drooled over to Axel before resting on Amber. Then it clicked in her head. AXEL WAS MR. A. Gina came down from the bed and glared at Amber who moved back a little with a nervous smile on her face. “How could you?! Axel is Mr. A and you never bothered to tell me?” she yelled. Amber fiddled with her fingers. “I'm sorry. I didn't want to tell you since his identity is hidden right now. I wanted you to find out during the fashion show.” Gina scoffed. “Like the other people? Who do you really take me for? I thought we were friends. I was there when you wanted to get back together with him. I met him at the gala. You could have just told me. I might be hyperactive and a gossip, but I'm not a chronic one. I won't tell anyone if you ask me to, and you kept such a huge thing away
106.Gina pulled Amber up and dragged her out of the office and into the lounge, where most of the employees use to relax during breaks. She closed the door behind her and looked up at Amber with an annoyed expression on her face. “Are you crazy?” Gina asked. “Why would you agree to such an obnoxious bet?” Amber smiled, but that only annoyed Gina further. This was something serious. She couldn't believe Amber was smiling at a time like this. Laura was so confident when she talked about the bet, and Gina knew the lady must have pulled strings somewhere. If she hadn't, she wouldn't have approached Amber with such stupid bet.“Why are you worried? It's just a bet.” Amber shrugged.Gina pulled her hair. “Just a bet?” she snapped. “Are you fucking serious right now?” she took deep breaths to calm herself down. “You're about to lose your job and position to that bitch. And you call it just a bet?”“Calm down, Gina-”“I can't calm down!” Gina snapped. “Don't you know the weight of what you'
105.GLAM MAGAZINE “A.A Entertainment’s fashion show is this Friday. How prepared are you for it, Amber?” Ms. June asked Amber, who she'd call into her office.Amber smiled and adjusted her jacket. “I'm prepared enough,” she said, her voice laced with confidence. “I have Gina to go with me. You asked Laura and Vera to come with as well. I still have no idea why.”Ms. June adjusted in her seat. “This is a big deal for the company, Amber, and we can't take any chances. We need all the hands we can get.”“Gina and I can handle it perfectly.”“The same way Laura and Vera can,” Ms. June said. “I know you aren't in best terms with her, but you two will have to put your differences aside and work together. We are partners with A.A Entertainment, which means we have to have the inside information about the fashion show. We need to have the main tea so we can stand out from other magazines and reporters. Readers are anticipating your article, Amber, and with his important this is, I don't wan
104.KING’S MANSION Amber fiddled with her fingers, her heart pounding in her chest as they drove into the surroundings of King’s mansion. The mansion was truly impressive, its exterior a reflection of Kevin's wealth and status. The imposing structure was flanked by manicured gardens, the driveway lined with perfectly trimmed hedges. The front of the house boasted an elegant portico, flanked by towering marble pillars. It was clear that no expense had been spared in its construction.Amber couldn't help but be awed as she stepped out of the car, her eyes sweeping over the grounds. She turned to Axel, her expression a mix of excitement and anxiety.“Wow,” she breathed, her voice barely above a whisper. Axel chuckled and wrapped his arm around Amber’s waist. “It’s quite something, isn’t it?” he said, his voice tinged with pride. “My father has always had a flair for the extravagant.”Amber smiled weakly, still adjusting to the grandeur of her surroundings. “It’s beautiful,” she manag
Author’s note: I just realized the last chapter was repeated with another one. I’m working to get it fixed. The fixing will be approved before the week runs out, sorry for the inconvenience.Chapter 102 was just about Laura, trying to find a way to make Mr. King have an interview with her so she can outshine Amber, but she failed and now she is frustrated. That is just what it was about. I'm sorry for the mix up one more time. Thanks__________103.A.A ENTERTAINMENT“And... Done!” Amber exclaimed with a smile on her face. Axel looked up from what he was doing and smiled at her. “Well, this is gonna be the last article before the fashion show on Friday. I've sent it to you. Do check and tell me what you think before I forward it to the magazine.” Axel stood to his feet and walked to her desk. He leaned in and looked at her. “Well,” he brushed strands of hair from her face. “You're one hardworking woman, cat eyes.”Amber smiled, her expression loving. “You're the one who makes me so
