RIVER LAVERNEI was trying to leave the club discreetly, but then I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned around to see Caleb looking at me with those intense eyes. "Hey, where are you going?" he asked."I'm leaving," I replied, trying to hide my embarrassment.Caleb stepped closer, blocking my way. "Can we talk for a minute?"I sighed and nodded, knowing that there was no way I could escape him. We walked outside to the cool night air, and Caleb put his hands on my shoulders."Look, I know what just happened between us was unexpected, but I don't regret it," he said, looking at me intensely. "I think there's something between us, River. Something real."I shook my head, trying to clear my mind. "You don't understand, Caleb. I'm not over my ex-boyfriend. I shouldn't have even been here tonight."Caleb's expression softened, and he took a step back. "I'm sorry, I didn't know. But please, let me make it up to you. Let me take you out on a date. Just one date, and if you're still not inte

Zavier Cross Fuck!Fuck!!Fuck!!!I can't believe I just did that. I almost kissed her. I can't help but feel this intense desire for her, but I know I need to hold back. She deserves more than a fling, more than just a physical attraction. I want something real with her, something meaningful. I need to control myself and not let my desires get the best of me.But damn, she's so gorgeous. Every time she's around me, it takes everything in me to resist her. Her curves, her eyes, her lips, they all call out to me, begging me to touch her. But I know I can't give in, not yet.I need to be patient, take my time and let our connection grow. She's worth it, and I know that deep down she feels the same. I can see the way she looks at me, the way her body reacts when I'm near her. But I need to be strong and resist, for both of our sakes.I just hope she understands why I'm holding back. I don't want to hurt her or lead her on, I want to give her everything she deserves. And if that means wai

RIVER LAVERNEAs I sit at home, trying to relax after a long day at work, my mind keeps wandering to the upcoming dinner with Raini, Zavier, and Caleb. I know Raini means well, but I can't help but feel a bit nervous about introducing Caleb to the family so soon.I like him, I really do, but it's only been a few weeks since we started seeing each other, and I don't want to come across as too serious. I don't want Caleb to think that I'm some desperate chick who's trying to lock him down.But then again, Raini is not one to take no for an answer. She's been pushing me to introduce Caleb to the family since the day I told her about him. And I know that if I don't do it, she'll just keep nagging me about it.Maybe I can just play it cool and not make a big deal out of it. I'll just tell Caleb that it's a casual dinner with my sister and her boyfriend, and we'll just see how it goes.But what if it goes well? What if Caleb gets along with the family and Raini starts planning our wedding i

Giselle POV Fucking incompetent fools I work here with, so unreliable.I was sitting in my office, staring at my computer screen, when my secretary Anita walked in. As soon as she started talking, I knew it was going to be one of those days."What is it?" I snapped, barely looking up from my screen."I just wanted to remind you about the meeting you have scheduled for this afternoon," she said, trying her best to sound cheerful."What meeting?" I barked, my frustration mounting. "I haven't received any invitation for a meeting."Anita's face fell. "I sent you an email about it yesterday. I thought you had seen it.""I don't have time to check every single email that comes into my inbox!" I shouted, standing up from my desk. "You should have made sure I received an invitation! This is unacceptable! If this ever happens again, I'll make sure you're out of a job."Anita looked like she was about to cry. "I'm so sorry, Giselle. I didn't mean to cause any problems.""Well, you did," I sna

RIVER LAVERNE Fuck, I could barely catch my breath. I'm really looking forward to tonight's dinner with Raini, Zavier, and Caleb. It's a chance for me to show Raini that Caleb is not just a rebound guy, that he really cares about me. I want her to see that I'm happy and that I'm moving on from Damon.But at the same time, I'm feeling nervous. What if Caleb and Zavier don't get along? What if they don't like each other? What if Raini doesn't like Caleb? I know I shouldn't worry so much, but I can't help it.I just hope that tonight goes well, and that everyone has a good time. I want to show them all that I'm happy and that I'm moving forward with my life. And who knows, maybe there's a chance that something might happen between Zavier and Raini... but I shouldn't get my hopes up. I'll just focus on having a good time and enjoying the company of my sister and Zavier.I stood in front of my closet, scanning through the hangers, trying to pick out the perfect dress for tonight's dinner
