After catching her boyfriend banging her coursemate, Luna ends up in a club with her friend, in a bid to forget it all. There, she meets this dashing guy who she jumps on without hesitation and requests for wild sex. It was supposed to be a one-night stand— one hell of a one-night stand that gave her shivers, but what she wasn't expecting was to meet him again. Not as the one who helped her brother secure a business deal and the one in whose house she would be spending the next thirty days. His name is Xander Storm— a dashing billionaire and one of the most eligible bachelors in Bayview. The shock goes both ways because the two of them relished the one-night stand and acknowledged that it felt more than one— but weren't expecting to see each other again. What will these thirty days be like? Will they pretend it never happened, or will they give in to the growing feelings that gnawed at their hearts? What will Xander's growing feelings for Luna mean for his revenge against the death of his parents, and for his enemies?

"Yes! Eric! Yes! Harder, please!! Oh, God!..." The redhead's screams were still sounding loud in my head as though I was still there watching him slam into her. He had never been that wild with me. Always treating me like I was fragile and that any wild sex positions might break me. Even the music blasting from the stereo mounted at strategic places in the hotel's clubhouse couldn't drown their voices ringing on repeat in my head. Nor did the swaying of bodies on the dance floor shut out the events playing so vividly in front of me. This party was supposed to be a welcoming distraction— at least, that was what Mia told me as she dragged me out of her apartment this evening. How ironic that I went down to his apartment to surprise him with the meal I prepared for him since he said he wasn't feeling well. But I was surprised instead. Right there, on his bed, Eric was banging furiously into Sylvia, my coursemate and the bitch that I never saw eye to eye with. Awesome. Tears continued trailing a pathway down my cheeks as I recalled them all— the way she twisted and squirmed underneath him while he flipped her to whichever position he deemed fit. I could finally guess what he meant by wild. The sex positions as well... He had never tried them with me. I tasted the saltiness of my tears, a reminder of how stupid I was. My elder brother Michael had always warned me about him. He never trusted Eric's intention towards me. But I was blindly in love and saw no fault with him. Hissing, I drowned the remaining champagne in the flute and blindly reached for another on the table, but a feminine hand stopped me before my best friend Mia bounced on the couch beside me, her brows narrowed. "Really, Luna? You are going to sit here and drown in champagne all night?" She asked softly, her gaze boring into me. I eyed the champagne as though it was my lifeline before I let out a deep sigh. "I don't feel like dancing Mia," I muttered, as more tears poured out. I collapsed into fresh sobs on Mia's shoulders. "Luna..." She cooed softly, letting go of my hand and wrapping me in her arms. "You have to get that asshole out of your head. Don't worry, Sylvia will have me to contend with once school resumes." She said with a note of finality. But her threat did nothing to repair the heartache in my heart. "Instead of him telling me what he wanted, he decided to get it from Sylvia. Who the fuck says I can't have wild sex?" I continued my lamentations as a pool of tears framed my face, almost choking me. "Luna!" Mia called again, this time a little loudly. "Do you want to kill yourself because of this asshole?" She reprimanded. "In his words: You are too modest and non-thrilling in bed. Sex with you can never be fun. So, yeah, it's over between us." Those were his last words to me before he pushed me out. Can you imagine?" I continued sobbing, my breath coming out in pants as I hugged Mia tightly. I shut my eyes tightly, as if that would stop his animalistic voice from ringing in my head. Instead, more tears poured, and my body shuddered greatly. "Jesus! Luna! Get a hold of yourself! You are bigger than this." "I need something stronger!" I muttered, shrugging out of her hold. I needed to shut his goddamn voice from my head. "Of course not! I'm not letting you leave this —" I stood up sharply but ended up falling back against the couch. I was already tipsy, but I wanted more drinks. "Where the fuck do you think you are going?" She yelled when I took a step. Slowly, I turned to her. "There's a VIP bar in this hotel, right? That's where I am headed." My voice was already cracked and blotchy from too much crying. Mia raised her hands and let it fall beside her. "But you don't know the—" I waved her away. "I can find it." I took another step and turned, a new resolution surging through me. "And I am going to prove him wrong. I am going to have wild sex." With that, I spun around, leaving— her open-mouthed—staggering a few bits before walking out through the front door. Someone brushed past me as I stepped outside, causing me to lose my balance. I was already swaying towards the wall when masculine hands caught me and I fell directly into his rock-hard chest. Our gaze met swiftly and held. I blinked to steady my gaze, which was getting blurry, but I didn't know if it was a result of the effect of the champagne kicking in or his magnetic blue gaze. "Are you okay?" He asked, and my breath hitched. His voice was so deep that it reverberated through my chest. I gulped and blinked again, shrugging out of his hold. He let me. Then my gaze started wandering over his body. God! He was extremely tall. And his rocky chest that cradled me earlier was as broad as I imagined, paired with his extremely broad shoulders. When I finally looked up to meet his gaze, he was staring down at me expectantly, his blue eyes doing nothing to assuage my shuddery breath. "Hey, you okay?" He asked again. His gaze screamed patience and understanding. I opened my mouth to assure him that I was okay— even knowing I wasn't. "Direct me to the VIP lounge," I muttered instead, but as soon as the words rolled out of my lips, I decided against it at that moment, remembering my earlier resolve. I inched closer to him, standing directly underneath his chin. "Let's have wild sex?" His face registered immense shock— wide-eyed and jaw-slacked as he continued gazing at me. "You are drunk," he muttered. That deep voice again. I closed my eyes to digest its effect before opening them and shaking my head. "Tipsy, not drunk." I didn't give him room for further protest before I stood on my tiptoes and crashed my lips against his, my hand circling his neck and pulling him down. He stiffened against my hold, not making a move to reciprocate, But immediately my tongue grazed his lips, he tore them apart with a low growl and slid his tongue into my mouth, nibbling on my lower lip hungrily. My knees felt weaker with each kiss, and before I could stop myself, I jumped on top of him, straddling him as I whispered hotly against his lips. "Take me somewhere."~XANDER~With Andy taking me towards the direction of the study, I knew what he wanted to talk about was serious. And it was something he didn't want any ear to hear. The door of my study was soundproof, so anything done or said there never got out.We entered, with me trailing behind him. I shut the door immediately I got in and made straight for my mini-bar. I had a mini-bar both in my room and in my study. There were times I would be neck deep with work that I wouldn't want to step outside. So, if I needed liquid courage I didn't need to go far to get it.Well, that was a few months back when I still spent time here, and not in my private condominium. But I figured things would change from now on. Speaking of change, Ace had never openly argued with me, playfully or not. But what he did back there... Being so defensive and overprotective... Coupled with his comment at the office earlier today about his guest being special. It was all starting to make sense.Still mulling over that
~LUNA~I could tell he was angry. It was obvious from the way he abandoned us at the parking lot and stalked off. He didn't need to talk much, I could see it in the widening of his broad shoulders and the rigidity of his gait. But what I couldn't fathom was why.Still trying to wrap my head around what could possibly be wrong, I stepped out of the car, standing by the side as Ace proceeded to get the key from the keyhole. He was fine before we left the country club, but something shifted during our ride home. I wasn't sure then, because the only outstanding event was him almost getting us killed by slamming on the brakes all of a sudden. My brows furrowed in thought. Now that I thought about it, that action of his depicted anger. But there was still no hint of why he would be angry. I remembered his stare through the rearview mirror when he apologized about it. Nothing in his gaze screamed anger. But his blue eyes had lost their sparks— or was it because I wasn't staring at him dir
~XANDER~The steering wheel bore the brunt of the anger and frustration swirling a graceful circle inside of me. I had decided to take the wheel so I would distract myself from the sexual heat that surged through my system as a result of my proximity to her earlier.But I didn't know that I was signing up for her and Ace to be hurdled up in a corner in the backseat, him whispering what I couldn't make out to her. My knuckles were turning white but I cared less. I had to alternate my gaze between the road and the rearview mirror. God! Xander. This couldn't possibly be jealousy, was it?Ever since I broke the news about that bastard almost raping her, Ace had gone all overprotective, even insisting that we leave early. I should have known that he wouldn't join me in the front seat, but instead perched beside Luna back there.When I averted my gaze from the road, fixing it back on the rearview, I almost pumped my fist against the steering. He wrapped his hand around her, leaning down as
~LUNA~It felt awesomely blissful to be in his arms again, to be saved by him. And most of all, to be referred to as his. Did he really mean that? Or he said to wade Eric off?His big hands wrapped around me were soothing, making me feel protected, and I honestly wish we could stay that way forever if possible. Wishful thinking. As magnetic as his statuesque frame was, we should be heading back inside. So I reluctantly stepped back, sighing in disappointment when his hands fell away from my back, the warmth disappearing along with it. Except for the heat radiating off him.My hands came in contact with a wet spot on his chest, and I bit my lower lip, staring up at him."I have ruined your shirt." My hands were still molded to his chest, almost giving in to the temptation of trailing my fingers against the rock-hard edges of it."It's fine." His voice was rough around the edges, causing a tingling feeling to settle deep in my stomach, reminding me of his naughty words while pumping in
~XANDER~All through the ride here and now sipping the champagne one of the female servers served us, I couldn't help but ask myself what the hell I was doing. The plan was to have a plate of ice cream to diffuse the heat a bit before I would take a quick dive into the bathroom to assuage the remnants with a cold bath. But here I was, sipping from the champagne flute, inside a country club I never in my wildest dreams imagined finding myself in tonight.Never had a woman had such control over me, making me change my plans overnight just by batting her eyelids and offering me a plate of ice cream. I had never given any of them that control.Just...who was this Luna that had slipped past my defense so easily, and even without my knowing?"Alexander!" The sharp calling of my name dragged me out of my thoughts. I turned immediately to face Ace. I might be a little popular—judging from a few people who were constantly waving and smiling at me from the minute we entered here— it was only A
~LUNA~"You are right on time, Xander. I was actually coming to tell Luna that I wanted to take her out for an evening air. Help her relax. You can join us." My gaze reflexively tore away from him to stare at Ace."We are?" So many surprises were buzzing through my head, all in a space of a few seconds. I just found out that I slept with my brother's benefactor. And he was actually the owner of the house and not Ace.Although Ace didn't explicitly mention that he was the one who owned the house. I could even remember his words at the airport."Let's get you home dear," he had said with a smile. I shrugged it off. Maybe this was like a home to him.Ace nodded, smiling at me. "Yes, sweetie. We are. And don't mind the master of the house. He might seem gruff on the outside, but he's actually sweet on the inside." My ears were blessed with a deep growl from him, taking me right back to the moment he was pumping into me so fast but passionately. Goosebumps broke through my body."Watch it
