LOGINCierra's POV
The ring caught my eye first. A polished band of silver...too elegant, too meaningful...to be ignored. He removed it slowly, almost ceremonially, like he knew I was watching him. My throat tightened. “Oh, this?” he said with a lazy shrug. “It’s nothing.” Nothing. Funny word for something that looked like a promise. I swallowed hard, forcing breath into lungs that suddenly forgot how to work. God, please let this not be who I think it is. The man my mom is marrying is supposed to be safe, boring, gentle. This man was none of those things. “What room number do you want?” I asked, trying to focus on work, on professionalism, on anything except how his gaze lingered on my lips. “This one.” He tapped the key card in my hand...my room. I blinked. “I… don’t understand.” He stepped in closer, that impossible scent of expensive sin surrounding me. His hand pressed lightly against my spine, guiding, claiming, pushing me back toward the door. His breath brushed the shell of my ear. “You look like a demon perfectly made for me.” My knees almost gave out. I whispered back before thinking: “And you look like a fallen angel sent to drag me back to Heaven.” He smirked.... slow, approving, dangerous. “I love how perfect you arrange your lines,” he murmured. “Well,” I breathed, clinging to one last piece of sanity, “too late. Someone already booked me.” He chuckled...a low, rich sound that made heat coil in my stomach. “And what if I rebook you?” “That’s if you can,” I challenged. He didn’t blink. Didn’t hesitate. Just lifted his phone and dialed. “Yes?” A woman answered from the front desk. “There’s been a mistake,” he said, tone cool and commanding. “I’m requesting an immediate swap to basic accommodation.” She apologized and asked for details. “Name: Dominic Vance. And the performer’s username…?” He lifted a brow at me. My whole world paused. “…MB,” I forced out. “Midnight Ballerina.” He repeated it smoothly. A few keystrokes later, the swap was approved. The call ended. But he kept staring at me... waiting for me to connect the dots. Dominic Vance. The name I’d been hearing for months. The man my mom wouldn’t stop smiling about. Everything inside me dropped...excitement, confidence, oxygen...gone. My heart thrashed in a panic cage. This is him. Him. The man she is about to marry tomorrow. I shouldn’t be here. I shouldn’t want him. But God, the way he looked at me like I was a secret sin he was born to commit… “Did you pay for a session?” I croaked, needing something logical to cling to. He tilted his screen toward me. A payment receipt flashed across it. $100,000.00 My jaw unhinged. Energy. This was pure, unfiltered energy. Something rebellious, reckless, suicidal sparked inside me. We crossed the door together... gravity pulling us closer than sanity allowed. His hand slid to my jaw. My pulse jumped. His lips brushed mine, then... “Wait,” I whispered, slipping from his hold. I needed something to do or I’d combust. I grabbed a bottle of wine from the minibar and poured. “I like my men a little tipsy before the fun,” I said, masking fear with sass. He arched a brow. “So you think you can handle me?" “Depends,” I smirked. “Are you married?” “Is that necessary information?” “Yes,” I pushed. “I need to know I’m not tearing someone’s home apart.” His eyes darkened. Sharp. Amused. “And would it bother you, if the woman couldn’t keep her home?” “Nice lines, Monsieur,” I said, rolling my eyes..even though my heart was sprinting. “Why does a whore like you care about homes?” he asked, voice soft but taunting. “Don’t call me a whore,” I snapped, heat flaring up my neck. He raised his hands in surrender, smirk playing at his lips. “Okay… princess. My mistake.” I climbed onto the couch, straddling his lap...because control felt safer than fear. “No pet names,” I warned. “Then good news....I’m not married." he paused, then continued... "Yet.” I froze. “Yet?” He leaned back, enjoying the chaos he created. “I’m getting married tomorrow.” His audacity punched me in the stomach. “So what are you doing here with… me?” He didn’t blink. “Making sure I’m making the right choice.” “Why the doubt?” “I love sex,” he said bluntly. “So?” I swallowed. “I’m starving,” he replied, eyes locking onto mine with a hunger that made reality tilt. Something primal inside me whispered: Prove you’re better. Prove he should choose you. I smiled.... slow and wicked..even while shame tangled with desire. “Then watch how a young girl does it.” “And what makes you think,” he growled, “that I’m not marrying a young girl?” My breath caught. “My mistake,” I whispered. His fingers slid into my hair, guiding my face closer. “Start,” he murmured, “by showing me how much you want me.” Heat flooded through me...terrifying and thrilling. I moved down to his trousers, as I rubbed his dick slowly, he moaned in pleasure as I whispered "should I keep on?" he nodded. His hands found their way through my breast as he began squeezing it lightly, he traced his fingers down my nipples and began playing with it. "Fuck." I whispered as he bent my neck and began sucking my nipples, he sucked one and played with the other. He kept on playing with it in circular motion as I moaned lightly. He traced his hands down my panties, as he began rubbing my clit. "Fuck, you are wet." he whispered as he kept rubbing my clit, slower... "Faster." I whispered...he began rubbing my clits like his life depends on it... I rolled over flipping myself to arch my waist for easy penetration... He rubbed his cock slightly, as he tried sliding it in but I stopped him. "Allow me." I said, holding his hard cock.. I pushed him to the bed, climbed on him and find my way down to his cock. I rubbed it slowly, lubricating it before sliding it inside my mouth, he cursed under his breath as i sucked his dick non stop. He held my head for easy deep-throating as I played with his balls, teasing his cock with my tongue. He was in heaven. He groaned loudly and I held his neck and shoved my finger in his mouth. "Shut up." I warned as I climed on him and inserted his cock inside my pussy. I began riding him slowly, he moaned, holding my waist firmly, for easy thrusting. He thrusted in fast..hard and rough, I held his chest to enable him go harder. "Fuck..yes..fuck..." I moaned out as he grabbed my breast while thrusting in. "Fuck, you are wet!" he yelled. He kept going hard and deep, raising my legs high to enable him thrust faster. "Yes..yes .. yes, that way, don't fucking stop." I moaned out, he spanked my ass and bent me over down his chest. I held his shirt, giving him an easy penetration, he groaned slapping my ass profusely, he turned my hips, holding it down and fucking me deeper. "Say you love how I smash that coochie!" he whispered. I nodded and said "More reasons you should keep shut and keep on." I bit my tongue in maximum pleasure as he spread my ass and kept thrusting in, he stood and turned me over, spanking my ass as he rubbed his dick before sliding it inside my pussy. "Oh fuck me!" I moaned out...he began thrusting in deep, hard... He held my hair, dragging it and whispered to my ears "Worry not, I would replace those hairs." That must be the sexiest word a man ever said to me, because at this point I do not think I'm letting go of this man. I think he is the Man for my pussy. I'm sorry Mom, We might speak about this after I cum. He held my legs open, and began licking my pussy, he played his tongue around my clit as I shivered. I rubbed his dick as he kept on fucking my pussy hole with his tongue. I was in heaven. "Nice Pussy." He said and left me wondering if I should say 'thanks' or just ignore it. He rose and lay on me, kissing my lips fiercely like I was his lost treasure. "I don't kiss sluts but for you, I would change that." He whispered as he bit my tongue. "Fuck you." I moaned and he pushed his cock inside me. Once. Twice. But just as the world closed down to his mouth and my heartbeat... My phone lit up. A message from Mom. # Baby, rest well. Tomorrow is a big day, remember?# My blood iced. Dominic’s eyes flicked to the screen, unreadable. No smirk. No teasing. Just… Cold. Heavy. My chest squeezed. I. Am. Doomed.Diego's POV I ran down the stairs, heart pounding, calling her name into the dark. “Mallory! Mallory, where are you?” The front door was still open, swinging a little in the night air. She had run out after our argument, after Cierra had seen us and left.The guilt from what we had done in the bedroom was still heavy in my chest, but right now all I could think about was finding her.The gunshot I had heard a moment ago made everything worse. Was it for her? Was someone waiting for us?I burst outside, scanning the dark street. “Mallory!” I shouted again, my voice echoing off the buildings. I looked behind cars, in the shadows, calling her name over and over. My head still hurt from the crash, my ribs ached, but I kept moving. The fear was stronger than the pain.I turned quickly, looking in the other direction.A masked man stepped out from the side of the house, gun already raised.“Where is she? Where is Cierra Monroe?” he asked, voice low and calm.I froze for half a second. Th
Cierra's POV The kiss shattered first. Cierra pulled away suddenly, lips still tingling, breath coming in short, uneven bursts.Rain poured down around them in steady sheets, soaking their clothes and turning the pavement into a mirror of gray light.George looked at her, eyes wide with confusion and something deeper.... hurt, longing, the weight of ten lost years all crashing into this single moment. Water streamed down his face, making his light hair cling to his forehead. He didn’t move, he just stared at her as if trying to understand why the woman he had just kissed with all the love he had carried for a decade had suddenly stopped.“Why did you stop?” George asked, his voice low and rough with emotion, barely rising above the sound of the rain.Cierra took a small step back, her heart pounding so hard it felt like it might break through her ribs.The rain felt colder now, like it was trying to wash away the heat of the kiss and the guilt that came with it.She wrapped her arm
Diego's POV The silence after Cierra left was worse than any scream. The front door had slammed so hard the walls still vibrated with the force of it.I stood frozen in the bedroom, towel barely hanging on my hips, heart hammering like it wanted to break out of my chest.Mallory sat on the edge of the bed, sheet clutched tight around her body, face buried in her hands. Her shoulders shook with silent sobs.I couldn’t breathe properly. The image of Cierra’s face kept replaying in my mind...the shock, the pain, the pure betrayal in her eyes.She had seen everything. She had seen me inside her best friend. She had seen the one person she trusted most in the world betraying her in our own bed.I finally found my voice, hoarse and broken. “Mallory… we have to go after her.”Mallory lifted her head. Her eyes were red and swollen, tears streaming down her cheeks. She looked at me like I was a stranger.“Go after her?” she said, voice cracking. “Diego, she saw us! She saw everything! How are
Cierra's POV The car window rolled down slowly, and the world narrowed to a single point.Raindrops slid down the glass like tears, but nothing could hide the face behind it. I stood frozen on the wet sidewalk, soaked and shaking, my scream dying in my throat the moment our eyes met.It was George.He stared back at me, confusion flickering across his face first, then a slow frown. He didn’t recognize me right away.I was too broken, too bloody, too changed from the girl he once knew. His eyes narrowed slightly as he tried to place the familiar face in front of him.“Lady, what the hell were you thinking?” he said, voice low and stern. “You almost got yourself killed. You looked familiar back at the fuel station, but this is insane. Are you okay? Do you need help?”His words were scolding, protective in that old way I remembered, but there was no spark of recognition yet.The rain poured harder, soaking us both. My chest tightened. Tears rushed to my eyes, hot and sudden, mixing wit
Cierra's POV I stood outside the apartment door like a ghost who had already died inside.My hand shook as I turned the key. The lock clicked open with a soft sound that felt too loud in the quiet hallway. I pushed the door just enough to slip inside without making noise. The place smelled the same... faint coffee, Greg’s crayons, and the laundry detergent I used to buy every month. It used to feel like home. Now it felt like a grave I had dug for myself.I walked down the short hallway, bare feet silent on the floor. The bedroom door was cracked open, warm light spilling out like blood from a wound. I shouldn’t have come. I should have kept running.But after the blood, after the gunshot, after watching Dominic fall with my name still on his lips, something broken inside me had dragged me back here. I needed to see Diego. I needed to see my son. I needed to remember who I was before the darkness swallowed me. Instead, I saw everything I had destroyed.Diego was on the bed, nake
“Take off your clothes.” Diego whispered to her. The apartment was quiet except for the soft hum of the refrigerator and the distant sound of rain tapping against the windows.Diego stood in the bathroom doorway, water still dripping from his hair and running down his bare chest in slow, glistening trails. The towel hung low on his hips, barely holding on. Mallory still held the two steaming mugs of tea in her hands as it fell off immediately.Diego looked at her, the air between them suddenly thick and heavy with everything they had never dared to say.Mallory whispered, her voice shaky, “I… I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to do such.”Diego stepped closer, his voice soft but rough around the edges, “It’s okay. Leave it.”He took the second mug from her trembling fingers and set it on the dresser. Their hands brushed, and that small touch sent a spark through both of them. Neither pulled away.Mallory breathed out, her eyes dropping to his chest, “We shouldn’t… Cierra is your wife. She’s
Cierra's POV I watched the man who was meant to be my saviour walk away, his back disappearing into the noise and lights of the club. The space he left behind felt louder than the music itself. And just like that, I was alone with the one man I never wanted to see again.I hissed, my fingers cur
Cierra's POV I walked in, expecting to finally confront the voice that had shaken me. The door swung open, and disappointment hit me like a slap. Blinky. That motherfucker.“Get the fuck outta here!” I snapped, storming toward him, heart racing.He sighed, slowly standing, calm as ever. “Cierra…
Cierra's POV I could feel my chest tightening as Jamal pulled his hands away from me. His eyes bore into mine, heavy with disappointment, disbelief, and some dangerous edge I had never seen before. I sighed, frustrated beyond measure.“Jamal… I’m so sorry,” I muttered, the words barely escaping m
Cierra's POV I stood there, completely frozen.Not because Jamal had walked in uninvited, but because the air in the room shifted the second he did. His eyes swept slowly across the space, sharp and judging, like he was searching for proof of something he already believed.He sighed. Deep. Disapp
