When Last Night Follows You
Ashlaine Selenne Soriano never expected that a single night with a stranger would unravel the calm, orderly life she built for herself. Independent, composed, and focused on her career as an interior designer, Ash never thought she’d get entangled with someone as mysterious as Zayne Valentino Velarde.
By day, Zayne or let's say Zarck appears to be nothing more than Kaia’s nerdy, clumsy officemate—sweet, harmless, and a little too good to be true. But when with Ashlaine, his mask slips, revealing a darker, more possessive side that Ashlaine can’t seem to resist.
What started as a one-time encounter quickly spirals into stolen nights, hidden glances, and a dangerous attraction that leaves Ashlaine breathless—and sometimes barely able to walk away. Yet behind Zayne’s smirk and secret touches lies a truth far more dangerous than either of them can handle.
Because Zayne isn’t just a man chasing desire. He’s a leader in the shadows, living a double life, and Ashlaine has unknowingly stepped right into the center of it all.
Now, between love, lust, and looming danger, Ashlaine must decide: will she run from the chaos Zayne brings, or surrender to the fire that consumes them both?

Chapter: Chapter 4: So Tight Ashlaine POV: I clung to his back as his mouth claimed mine, desperate and searching. “You’re safe,” Safe. I wanted to believe him. But before I could even hold on to that word, his kiss changed— From gentle to hungry. From careful to claiming. Possessive. And I didn’t mind. Not even when I should have. My hands moved on their own, trembling as they reached for his tie. I loosened it slowly, carefully, even as my heartbeat raced and my chest tightened. One button, then another—until his shirt parted under my touch and I felt the heat of his bare skin. He stilled against me, lips pausing like he was waiting—letting me decide. And I did. I kept going. Because I didn’t want space between us anymore. I slid the fabric from his shoulders, muscles flexing beneath my fingers. He was restraint itself—controlled, patient—while I was the opposite, rushing with a desperation that came not from lust alone, but from my need to forget everything else. His hand traced down my thig

Chapter: Chapter 2: Worst Decision?Silence stretched between us, the kind that wasn’t awkward.No.It was calculated.He wasn’t in a hurry.And that pissed me off more than it should.“You’re standing too close,” I said flatly, not bothering to look at him.Still, no reaction. God, seriously?I forced myself to glance sideways, only to catch him casually watching the bartender now—like I wasn’t even there.Was that supposed to make me curious?Because it was working.“Are you waiting for someone?” I asked, trying to sound as uninterested as possible.His answer was simple.“Maybe.”Maybe.Seriously?I rolled my eyes, loud enough this time.“Right.
