Wrong Intentions
I’m trouble for anyone who crosses my path.
I am heartless and selfish.
I don’t care about anyone or anything in this world.
When you grow up in a house full of lies, distress and abuse, those walls go up high and thick.
Anyone with any sense knows not to get involved with me. I hurt people and destroy their lives without a care in the world.
The world has given me nothing. Why should I give it anything?
I am comfortable with who I am, and if people have an issue with it, that’s their problem, not mine. Unlike others, I don’t pretend to be someone I’m not. What you see is what you get with me.
When Aubrey unexpectedly enters my life, all I desire is to have her as my own. I should steer clear. She is my brother’s wife’s cousin. The fact that she is off-limits only increases my desire for her. She is sweet and nice. She has already been through a lot. It should be enough to keep me away, but it isn’t.
I will do whatever it takes. Aubrey will be mine, even if just for one night, regardless of what I have to do. Nothing and no one can stand in my way. I thought I would ruin her life, but she ended up changing mine.

Chapter: Chapter Fifty-FourAubreyNo words are spoken between us, only heavy breathing. Everything is being said in the kiss and in the way we are fighting with one another’s clothing. I didn’t come here for this, but now, it is all I want, all I crave. Deep down, I know it isn’t a good idea, but I don’t care. Between my thighs is soaked and throbbing. Standing in only our underwear, Everett’s lips fall on my neck, kissing and sucking on the sensitive skin. A loud moan escapes from my throat, and I entangle my fingers in his hair, tugging it roughly. His lips always feel so good on me.Everett hooks his hands under my thighs, lifting me from the ground. I tightly wrap my legs around his hips and my arms around his neck. His hard cock digs into my pussy. The only material between us is my panties and his boxers. I gasp and rock my hips against him. I need some friction. Everett groans at the contact, and his lips come down on mine once again. I kiss back and focus on nothing else but the pleasure coursing throug

Chapter: Chapter Fifty-ThreeEverettAnger courses through me as I storm off. It is for two reasons. One, because I saw Aubrey with another man. Two, because I hate how jealous it made me. Yes, that night she went on the date set up by Hugo and Erica annoyed me, but this is different. I wanted to punch him! Aubrey is supposed to be mine! No one else’s. I don’t care if she said they are only friends. I know how men work. He is after something even if Aubrey doesn’t see it.I return to Hugo’s office to continue our meeting, cursing under my breath.“What is wrong with you? You were fine when you left. Now, your face is red, and you seem tense.” Hugo asks, confused.“Nothing, I am fine. Can we finish up? I need to go soon,” I sigh, running my fingers through my hair.Hugo doesn’t seem convinced but nods his head. He knows not to push me. We get back to our meeting. I try not to let what happened get to me and focus. I am eager to get out of here. I don’t want to run into Aubrey. It is time for me to return home. I h

Chapter: Chapter Fifty-Two AubreyI am finally back at work, again. Thank God, I was going stir-crazy. It took some convincing to get Hugo, Erica and Everett to agree. They are more paranoid than I am. There has been no sign of Benji since the time I thought I saw him. Everett is still staying with me. I thought he would have left by now, but nope. Surprisingly, he isn’t getting on my nerves. He’s the opposite. He is taking good care of me. Everett helps with the housework and cooks my dinner nearly every night. He buys the groceries too. He even offered to help me with some bills while he is staying with me, but I refused. He isn’t living with me. He doesn’t have to pay bills. Hugo and Erica don’t know he is still staying at mine. As far as they know, he is back home and only checks in on me. I don’t like lying to them, but it would seem suspicious that he is still staying with me.“Hey, Aubrey. I am going out for lunch. Do you want to join me?” My colleague, Brooks, asks as he appears at my desk.“Hey, Brooks

Chapter: Chapter Fifty-One EverettI’ve been awake for a bit, but I haven’t moved. I am not ready to see Aubrey. I remembered quickly, once I woke up, that I had opened my big mouth when I was drunk. I didn’t say too, but it was enough. Aubrey didn’t seem to pick up on what I meant. That is something, I guess. I can’t hide in here all morning. A part of me wants to go home because being around Aubrey so much isn’t good for my sanity. I can’t, though. I am not ready to leave her alone yet.Sighing, I sit up and run my fingers through my hair. The bedroom door opens, and Aubrey comes in with two mugs in her hand, with what I assume to be coffee in them.“Welcome back to the land of the living,” she giggles.She doesn’t seem bothered by last night. I won’t bring it up.“Good morning,”Aubrey strolls over to the bed, handing me one of the mugs before she climbs onto the bed next to me, smiling.“Are you rough?” she asks, taking a sip of her coffee.“No, I am okay. I am sorry if I did or said anything stupid or conf

Chapter: Chapter Fifty AubreyEverett has been staying at my place for a week. I appreciate him sticking around to make sure everything is okay, but it was getting on my nerves at the same time. I need my own space, and tonight I am getting it. Everett is away out. I don’t know if he is meeting friends or a woman. I didn’t ask. It is none of my business what he is doing. Yes, I am happy to have time alone, but I am also on edge. I keep checking outside every so often. So far, there has been no sign of Benji. There hasn’t been since that night. I can’t help but wonder if he was hiding in the shadows somewhere when Everett went outside, and knowing Everett was here and I wasn’t alone scared him off again. I hope that is what happened.My door is locked anyway, so he couldn’t get in even if he tried. Everett took my spare key with him. Come tomorrow, my apartment will have a security system paid for by Everett. I am on the fence about it, but it is booked and paid for. I may as well give it a try. If I don’t l

Chapter: Chapter Forty-Nine EverettI had left Aubrey to sleep. I didn't sleep much after she woke me up. I checked outside a few times to see if Benji was there. He wasn't. I don't know if he ever was or if it was someone else, but there was obviously someone to freak Aubrey out as much as it did. I may need to pay Benji another visit, alone this time. Hugo won't be there to stop me. It probably wouldn't be a good idea, but if I see Aubrey fearful in such a way again, none of that will matter. I will be going.I have got breakfast on to cook. I take my cell and call Hugo to let him know what happened. It rings only a couple of times before he answers."Good morning, big brother.""Morning. I have something to tell you. I stayed with Aubrey last night.""What? Why? What are you doing at her place?"I should have worded it better. I explain what happened, starting from the café until Aubrey woke me up. I left the part out about being in bed with her."But you don't know for sure if it was him?""No, I couldn't se

Dear Ex-Husband, Your Enemy Wants Me
One year ago, my life changed forever. I lost everything in one day, starting with catching my best friend and husband in his office, and they weren’t just talking. From that moment, everything fell apart. I believed I would never get over it. I believed it would break me, but I refuse to kneel in defeat.
One year later, and I am back stronger than ever. I am back for revenge. I am not the weak woman I used to be. I have changed a lot in the last year. Now, I am going to make my ex-husband and ex-best friend regret what they did.
What better way to do that than to go after my ex-husband’s enemy? His half-brother from another mother. The one he hates the most, the one he is jealous of. I plan on teaching my ex-husband a lesson he won’t forget.
I am coming for him. I am coming for both, and they have no idea. Karma is a bitch, and it is coming right at them.
What I didn’t expect was to end up getting a second chance of my own.
Update Schedule starting from the 18th of August: Monday, Thursday and Saturday.

Chapter: Chapter Twenty-Seven SerenaI am nervous as I wait for Conall. What did his father say to him? It must have something to do with me if he asked to meet and it couldn’t wait until tonight. I can imagine the things he said. He never did like me. He tried to hit on me once while I was married to Henry. I shot him down, and since then, he’s taken a dislike to me for rejecting him. I told Henry, but he brushed it off and acted like it was nothing. I swear, looking back, there were so many red flags during my marriage. Ones that, if I had noticed sooner, I would have gotten out sooner. Love really is blind and makes you dumb. I would never let a man treat me the way Henry did now. He tried, but he would be gone. I am stronger than I once was. I didn’t have a choice, I had to be.I sip my coffee as I wait, and a few minutes later, I see Conall enter, glancing around for me. I wave, grabbing his attention. He smiles, coming over to join me. I didn’t offer him a coffee because I was here early and wasn’t sure when

Chapter: Chapter Twenty-Six Conall I enter the office, feeling good after my morning with Serena. I had a spring in my step, ready to start my day. I smile and say hello to everyone as I go to my office. I would have much preferred to stay home with Serena, but I need to work. She is coming to mine tonight, well, maybe, she said she would let me know for sure.The moment I step into the office, my good mood is ruined when I see my father sitting at my desk, as if it were his office. Why is he here? He doesn’t bother with me unless he really needs to. If it were up to him, I wouldn’t exist. He hates me for ruining his perfect little family and image. He hates me in general, but the feeling is mutual. There is no love lost between us. I will never forgive him for what he put my mother through.“Why are you here?” I ask without greeting him.“We need to talk. Sit.” He demands.I want to tell him to fuck off, but I won’t. I will see what he has to say. The sooner I do, the sooner he will leave.I take a seat. “What

Chapter: Chapter Twenty-Five SerenaI woke a little while ago. Conall is still asleep next to me. His alarm will go off soon, but I have a better way to wake him. One thing I am sure he would appreciate more. I smirk, carefully climbing out of bed and going to use the bathroom, freshening myself up before I slip back into bed.I make sure he is still sound asleep, and when I know he is, I slide under the cover, taking my place between his legs. I rub him through his trousers. Conall groans, arching his hips, and I use it to my advantage. I hook my fingers in the band and pull them down, only enough to release him. Conall lifts the covers, glancing down at me.A smirk curls on his lips. “What are you doing down there?”What sort of question is that? He knows the answer. I smirk back, not saying a word and dip my head down, circling my tongue on the tip of his cock and tracing my fingers over the base. Groaning, he tenses under my fingers and drops the covers, leaving me to it.I dance my tongue over every inch of

Chapter: Chapter Twenty-Four ConallI am not sure if I made the right choice, agreeing to continue with Serena, but I am willing to give it a try. She knows where I stand and what needs to change. If she is willing to work through this together, then things will be fine, but if things go back to how they were, I am done for good.“You head up to bed. I will join you in a minute.”Serena nods, kisses my cheek, and disappears to my bedroom. I sigh and wash the cups from our tea. I notice her cell on the counter. Did she forget it on purpose? I should take it upstairs with me either way. I switch everything off and go to join her. Suddenly, her cell starts to ring in my hand. Who is calling her at this time? The number isn’t saved in her contacts.I am hesitant, but answer in case it is important. “Hello?”“Conall, why are you answering Serena’s voice?”I would recognise this voice anywhere. Henry! Why is he calling her at this time? “Because she is at mine, why else? What do you want?”“I want to talk to Serena,

Chapter: Chapter Twenty-Three SerenaI haven’t heard from Conall since he stormed out of my place this morning. I feel guilty for how I acted. He has helped me so much. Conall is the last person who deserves my bitchiness. It has crossed my mind many times throughout the day to reach out to him, but something has been holding me back. I wouldn’t blame him if he wants nothing to do with me or the arrangement any longer.It is after midnight, too late to reach out now. I came to bed two hours ago, but have spent all my time tossing and turning, getting in and out of bed. It doesn’t matter how long I stay in bed, I won’t be sleeping any time soon. With a frustrated groan, I reach for my cell and open a text to Conall for what feels like the hundredth time today. Staring at the screen, I can’t find the words, not the right ones. Texting only, sorry isn’t enough.Screw it! I drag my ass out of bed once again and pull a hoodie over my pjs and slip into a pair of sneakers. I grab my car keys, heading for the front door.

Chapter: Chapter Twenty-Two ConallI wake to an empty bed. Serena isn’t next to me. Reaching for my cell, I check the time. It is only six. Where did she go? We only fell asleep a few hours ago. Sitting up, I pull it together and run my fingers through my messy hair. My heart broke for her last night. I knew it was too much for her to see Henry. There was no chance I was leaving, even if she wanted me to. Well, I don’t know if she really wanted me to or didn’t want me to see her upset and vulnerable. Either way, I wasn’t going anywhere.Did she move to the sofa once I was asleep? I drag my tired ass out of bed and go to search for her. I call out, but there is no answer. I search the entire place, and she is nowhere in sight. Where the hell has she disappeared to at this time of the morning? I didn’t even feel or hear her leaving the bed. Sighing, I return to the room for my cell and call her. It rings out. I try again, but it does the same thing. Should I be worried? What is something happened? I open a text to

Falling For My Ruthless Protector
It has always been my father and me.
He is a good man, but like everyone else, he makes mistakes. This time, the one he made has gotten him into a lot of trouble. He asked the wrong people for money, and now, they are threatening violence against not only him but me.
He has only one choice: He needs to disappear until he can sort things out. I want to go with him, but he has other ideas. To protect me from the dangers he has put himself in, he leaves me with one person he knows he can trust. Ambrose Calloway. A man I know well, one who is ruthless and heartless. The last person I want to stay with, but when my father begs me, I can’t say no.
I would rather stay with anyone else! He doesn’t want me around and only agrees because he owes my father a favour. Now, here I am, staying in a mansion with a man who hates me. The feeling is mutual. He promises my father that he will protect me until he comes back.
People seem to fear Ambrose, but I have never understood why.
What I don’t expect is that I would learn secrets about him that make me understand why no one messes with him. I wish I had realised from the start just how much danger I was in.
I plan to make his life hell, but sometimes, when the tension and anger become too much, two people find other ways to take it out on one another that don’t involve arguments.
I am not looking for a protector, but Ambrose becomes everything I didn’t know I needed, but it still won’t make life any easier.

Chapter: Chapter Thirty-SevenSierraI wake from my nap and groan. My head is pounding, and I have a disgusting taste in my mouth. I shouldn’t have drunk so much. Vodka is the one drink that always gives me hangovers. I can’t believe I threw myself at Ambrose! It is a good thing he said no. I needed a distraction, and he was there. It would have been stupid of me. I search for my cell, but I can’t find it. Where is it? It was there when I settled down to sleep. Groaning, I slowly sit up and look for the clock for the time. It is seven o’clock in the evening. Great! I won’t sleep tonight. My cell can only be in one other place, and that is wherever Ambrose has put it. He is the only one in the house who would have taken it. Asshole!I pull my hungover ass out of bed, needing water and food. I am starving. I haven’t eaten today, as far as I can remember. Wrapping a dressing gown around me, I head downstairs. The closer I get to the kitchen, the more I smell something cooking. It smells like macaroni cheese. I hope t

Chapter: Chapter Thirty-Six AmbroseI return home from work earlier than planned. I was worried. Sierra managed to talk me into letting her stay home alone. I got her to agree to allow Wade to check in every few hours. I did have two guys outside of the house just in case. Sierra seems to be doing a little better. She is on two different medications along with sleeping pills. Her first therapy session was a few days ago. I still haven't managed to get her to leave the house, only to the backyard. Her session and doctor appointments happened here at the house. I haven't given up, though. It will be the next step.The second I enter the house, loud music fills the house. What the hell? There is no need for the music to be as loud. I can't hear myself think with the noise. I call for Sierra, but there is no answer. She won't be able to hear me. I head further into the house and spot her. Sierra is dancing around the living room with a bottle of vodka in her hand. What is she doing? I don't even know if she should b

Chapter: Chapter Thirty-Five AmbroseI head up to my room to change for my swim. I feel helpless. I hate that I can’t help Sierra. I didn’t want to get a doctor or therapist, but they felt like my last options. I need her to be okay. She can’t continue to lock herself away from the world. I change, grab a towel and stop outside of her room. I knock lightly and wait for her to invite me in. She does, a second later.I pop my head in to see her snuggled under the covers. “Are you sure you don’t want to come for a swim?”“Positive.” She whispers.“Okay.” I sigh, defeated, and leave her alone.I am worried about her. She isn’t eating right. She is sleeping way too much, and she is barely moving, which isn’t good for her body or mental health. I wish I could make her feel better, but only Sierra can do that. I make my way outside, diving into the pool. It is a good distraction, a way for me to destress. What Sierra needs is her father! He should be here. We would keep him safe here, but no, he decided it was best to s

Chapter: Chapter Thirty-Four SierraThe last couple of weeks have been a blur. I’ve barely left my bedroom. I spend my time sleeping or studying. I quit my job because I don’t want to leave the house. I don’t know how Ambrose managed it, but my classes have been moved online. I haven’t stepped out of the house. I am too scared. I am suffering from trauma; I know that for sure. Ambrose is fine, even if he is the one who got shot. He is acting like nothing happened. Then again, by what he said, it isn’t the first time he has been in such a situation. I don’t know if I will ever get over it. It still haunts my dreams every night.What I need is to see my father, but that isn’t going to be possible. He is in Asia somewhere. I begged him to let me go to him, but he wouldn’t let me. I hung up on him after that, which was a couple of days after everything happened. I haven’t spoken to him since. I am angry with him. He chose to still stay away from me after what happened. I am probably in more danger than he is. I truly

Chapter: Chapter Thirty-Three AmbroseSierra has fallen asleep as we fly back home. I don’t know how she managed it, but she convinced Wade to come with us. He really does have a soft spot for her.“What is our next move, sir?” Wade asks.“I am going to find out who sent them and return the favour. No one gets away with shooting me or putting Sierra’s life in danger. I am going to every single one of the fuckers out.” My jaw clenches as anger runs through me.“Ambrose, you need a plan. You can’t run in all guns blazing. You are going to get yourself killed. You have people who can take care of these things for you.”“I don’t care. I will deal with it myself. You never saw how terrified Sierra was. I have never seen fear in someone in the way I did her. No one is getting away with that.”I glance down at Sierra, who has her head resting on my shoulder, her hand gripping mine, fast asleep. I sigh, shaking my head. I was supposed to protect her. Now, she is going to have the trauma of what happened for the rest of he

Chapter: Chapter Thirty-Two SierraThe last, however long, have been the longest of my life. All the noise outside, the yelling, the gunshots are too much. I am on the floor, with my hands over my ears, rocking back and forth, squealing with the sound of every shot. All while making sure Ambrose doesn’t bleed out. My stress is through the roof, and I am so close to passing out and hoping it will all go away.Silence falls from the outside. No voices. No gunshots.“Sierra, please come here,” Ambrose says, his voice is quieter, hoarse almost.It panics me, and I rush over, making sure he is okay. The bleeding has eased, but not stopped.“Ambrose, are you okay? Are you dizzy? Tired? Going to pass out?”I don’t know what a gunshot can do to a person, even if he told me he isn’t in any danger. He has still lost a lot of blood.“I am okay. Are you?” he asks, leaning forward and caressing my face.I whimper, shaking my head. “No. I want out of here. I want someone with medical training to take care of you. I need all o
