Riley’s POV A pair of firm hands pinned me in the bathroom stall, covering my mouth to stop me from screaming. Relaxed dark grey eyes locked with mine, obviously intoxicated with alcohol just like I was—and my heartbeat raced as my eyes widened with fear. “I saw your moves on the dance floor, and I thought why don’t I get a private moment with the star,” He whispered against my skin, and I closed my eyes, feeling the adrenaline rushing in my veins as I tried to escape his grasp. Only to be slammed into the wall—bringing up memories of that dreadful night. “I’m sure you won’t mind a quickie,” he whispered again before kissing behind my ear, trailing wet, sloppy kisses down on my neck, and I felt the tears rolling down my cheek. My eyes flew open, and I sat up—breathing heavily as if I was running in a marathon—all of this because of a stupid nightmare, triggering my eyes and the tears blurred my vision. I felt a h

|22| A way to save my heart

Riley’s POV I stared at the white ceiling with my legs dangling off the bed—my hands were on my stomach, trying to silence the butterflies every time Zack popped up in my thoughts. “You look so down for him… what happened to the woman who told me she won’t fall for the rich, cocky playboy?” Lucy bugged, and I groaned—grabbing the pillow and covering my face as I screamed into it. I lowered the pillow to my lap and sat up, looking at Lucy as she went through my outfits. “I don’t know what happened to me—my mind is somehow holding me back, but my heart fell way too hard for him,” I answered in a frustrated voice. My fingers traced my lips unconsciously as my mind replayed the kiss in my head—how do I get it out of my mind? I could still feel his lips on mine. The taste of strawberries mixed with whiskey lingered in my mouth, and I groaned, throwing myself back on the bed—hugging the pillow. “He wouldn’t have kissed me if I wasn’

Riley’s POV I stared at my phone’s screen, feeling the blood boiling in my name as I reread the message for the tenth time around—the high-pitched ring bell pulled my attention away from the infuriating message, seeing my sister’s name on the top of the screen as I received a message from her. I tapped the message, and the screen redirected me to her chat, noticing tons of messages I hadn’t noticed because I had abandoned my phone yesterday. I scrolled down to the latest message, feeling a bang of guilt in my chest as I sensed Lara’s worried tone through her message. Lara: Hey, you didn’t pick up my calls, and didn’t reply to my messages or Athena’s. Are you okay? I typed the chatting bar, and the keyboard popped up, only for me to stare at the letters—definitely mocking me for not knowing what to say. Hey, Lara, I didn’t answer because some asshole at the club tried to rape me, not to mention I drank alcohol whi

Riley's POV "Is the blindfold necessary?" I questioned as I stumbled on a rock in the way—it wasn't like I saw it with this thing covering my eyes. Zack was supposed to be my eyes since he was holding my hand, and his other hand was on my waist—guiding me to this stupid picnic date. Apparently, he was as blind as me. "I told you I'm sorry, stop being such a brat," he retorted, and I stopped in my place—snapping my head to where his face was supposed to be—instantly feeling his warm, minty breath on my face. "Did you just call me a brat?" I heard his light chuckle—feeling a little huff of air on my face as he chuckled. The heat traveled to my cheeks—I was embarrassing myself. "You stumble on everything," he remarked, and his words refreshed my mind, playing every scenario. I stumbled on something and fell on him. It was just once or twice. "You are throwing a tantrum over nothing, princess, and I don't want to r

"She isn't your type," Luciana beat me up first and a low chuckle escaped my lips. "Hello to you too, stranger," I said sarcastically and she rolled her eyes. We were really doing this. Talking after two years, and the first thing she said was about Riley. Same old Luciana, always judging my choices. But she was right, Riley wasn't my type, I never had a type to start with. I was the ladies' man, every day with a different woman filling my needs. That habit didn't die away as I thought, I still had fun every once in a while. "You are a sex freak and she's…" "She's better than my type, a virgin," I continued her sentence with a lopsided smirk and she deadpanned at me. Tough crowd. "You didn't change a bit," she bellowed and started to walk away. I closed my eyes and sighed, cursing under my breath be

Riley's POV I loved how the wind went through my hair, the burning in my calves as I ran if I was in a marathon. It felt great not to have anything tying you—no attachments or anything. It was a habit for me to take early morning runs when I had a lot on my mind, but actually, I was avoiding Zack. I slowed down my pace gradually until I stopped by the beach—touching my lips as I remembered yesterday's kiss—my third kiss. I closed my eyes as I felt the ghost of his lips on mine—the butterflies swarmed in my stomach as my mind recreated the feeling of his soft lips on mine. My heart was falling all over again, and I… I don't know what to do. I don't understand my heart anymore. My phone rang, and I opened my eyes, looking at the scenery ahead of me for a few seconds before grabbing my armband. I took the phone out—Lara's name flashed on the scre

Zack's POV I watched my lawyer intently as he checked the contract, flipping to the other page as I side glanced at Javier who was beginning to look bored—my work was never fun when it came to risking the company with uncleaned money. "Any clauses, Lyle?" I broke the silence, and he lifted his gaze off the papers, peering at me through his reading glasses. "No, everything is great, but I don't understand why you won't sign Arnau's contract," he said with furrowed brows as he took off his reading glasses. Javier snorted, pulling out Arnau's contract and placing it on the desk. Lyle picked the papers hesitantly—wearing his glasses again as I let Javier fill him in with the details. "Lyle, you'll find on page six that there can't be a third-party partner in the club. Arnau signed a contract with Noah Hernandez, not only him— while there's Carlos De Luca who's
