All Chapters of Perfect Player: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

ELLIEI only realized what we had done when the climax haze dissipated. It wasn't news that Ethan Morgan always made my reason disappear, but all that adrenaline from the risk of getting caught hadn't helped much.Mr. Morgan was making me act recklessly and impulsively. First, having sex in a restaurant bathroom, then yesterday outside that bar, and now this."Are you okay?" He whispered, still holding my body. I nodded. "Can you stand?"It was precisely in these small moments when he acted so attentive and caring, that the warning signs rang in my head, alerting me to all the dangers of crossing the line with him."Of course," I said before pulling away.I put my nightgown back in place and picked up my panties and the sheet that lay on the couch before heading back upstairs, aware that he was following me.I locked myself in the bathroom for a few minutes, trying to clear my cluttered mind.When I came out, he was sitting near the headboard on the double bed. Passing by him, I walke

ELLIEWhen we stopped kissing, we were both out of breath."Probably we'll be banned from this place forever," he said before getting up, helping me then. "No need to freak out because you're a little jealous, Brown.""We're not going to discuss this," I said through clenched teeth."Yes, we are. By the way, it was quite fun to see your reaction earlier," his lips stretched into an arrogant smile."You're an idiot!" I turned away, but he pulled me back against his chest, cradling my face in his hands."Don't worry, I like it when you're possessive of me. I feel the same way about you, and there's nothing wrong with that. We're both selfish and don't like sharing."How could he simplify things like that and make it all seem so easy?"Stop overthinking. Enjoy this. The both of us, with no restrictions or inhibitions. There's nothing to worry about. When we get back home, everything will go back to normal."I didn't have an answer for that, but I knew it wasn't that simple."Now, let's g

ELLIEEthan remained silent for so long that I thought he would just ignore my question. Why the hell did I ask something like that? I knew he didn't like to talk about this subject. A wave of regret washed over me before he finally spoke."Who are you? My therapist?" he said.I smiled, remembering when I used the same words during our dinner."Okay, I guess I deserved that.""It's not so fun when your own words are used against you, is it?""Fine. You win," I turned around, resting my arms on his chest to face him. "How about this... I'll answer if you do the same." He seemed to reflect for a moment before finally nodding."However, I already know what you're going to say.""How can you know?""Your eyes... you can't hide it.""That's ridiculous!" I mocked. "Come on, then, what do my eyes say to you?" I furrowed my eyebrows, skeptical."That you loved the idiot, but he didn't know how to appreciate it and ended up hurting you. He never acknowledged what you had, and that's why you're

ETHANI had to extract Anna's address from her to find out the damn hotel where they would meet. It wasn't hard to locate them when I entered; they were sitting at the hotel bar. Keeping a safe distance to stay out of sight, I sat in a secluded corner where I could have a good view of them.She barely glanced at me before leaving, but seeing how she was dressed was enough to irritate me. The idea that she had dressed up for him drove me crazy with jealousy. And damn it, she looked beautiful. The idiot didn't deserve her; he had already had his chance and didn't know how to take advantage of it. He was completely mistaken if he thought he could have her back so easily.Having to watch how well they seemed to get along only worsened my mood. I had to restrain myself from going over there dozens of times. And when I saw her smiling at him, my stomach churned.Was she really considering giving the jerk a second chance? She couldn't be so naive. Watching the two of them together for half t

ELLIE When strength returned to my legs, I steadied myself on the floor, resting my forehead against the wall. "This shouldn't feel so good," I grumbled. With his hands on my waist, he pulled out of me and turned my body, making me face him. I was still breathless. "I'm going to break your stupid rule now," he said before pressing his lips to mine, kissing me passionately, sucking and teasing my tongue. Our kiss grew deeper, without urgency, just exploring and enjoying each other without haste. When his lips parted from mine, he caressed my face with his thumb. "Deal with it and stop running away," he said. "Give me a minute before we start this conversation," I said. My reason hadn't fully returned yet. Pushing away from his chest, I moved out of the space between his body and the wall. Only then did I notice the luxurious boudoir-style suite around me. With cozy lighting, cream-colored walls, and dark brown and red furniture. A huge bed occupied one corner, and the
