LOGINCierra's POV
“Fuck.” That was all I managed to breathe out because George’s mouth was all over mine like I was some antidote to the diseases he carried inside his heart. His hands were everywhere...needy, desperate, frantic...like he’d been starving for me. We moved blindly down the hallway, still kissing, bumping into the wall, the door, each other. My hand found the handle and pushed it down. The door flung open, and in the next second, he pushed me gently onto the bed, climbing over me as if this was something he rehearsed. He started pulling at my lace, hands trembling. I caught his wrists. “Wear it.” He paused. “Wear what?” “A ConDom.” He blinked once. Twice. “I got none with me.” “Oh God. Here we go.” “No...no, Cierra,” he rushed, panic rising in his voice. “I promise, I didn’t know this would happen. I didn’t know you’d let me even see you.” I stared at him, lips parted. “Okay then. Orgasm Postponed.” “NO...no wait.... we can do the withdrawal method..” I pushed his forehead back with one finger.“You must be stupid to think I’d let you do that.” “Why? You don’t trust me?” I laughed once. Short. Cold. “Trust? You want me to trust a man battling with his fleshly desires? A man battling with lust? Please.” He let out a loud sigh, collapsing beside me. “Okay fine. I’m just gon’ sleep with blue balls.” “Uh-huh.” I grabbed my phone. “You leaving?” he asked, voice small. “Nope. I’m calling Blinky.” “Why?” I arched a brow. “Do you want to face blue balls or should I call for help?” He smiled, defeated. “Okay baby… take your time.” I dialed. It rang once. Twice... Then he picked up. "Hey Inky...uh.." I didn’t even get a chance to speak., he started blabbing. “Oh my Godddd,” Blinky said dramatically. “Please, girl, I need the BLI in my name. Quit calling me INKY. That sounds like some comic book nerd.” “Whatever. I need your help.” His voice sharpened. “Never. Never, Cierra. I’m NOT getting you pills. I’m not enabling your chaos.” “Jesus, no! Pay attention!” I fired. “Okay, go on.” “I need you to help me get uh… a condom.” Silence. Then... “OH. MY. GOD. Don’t tell me you letting that LOSER fuck you....” He exclaimed. “Uh...nah. Nah.” I lowered my voice, staring at George who thankfully wasn’t even paying attention. “I got too much self-respect for that.” “Okay girl,” Blinky said. “I’ll be there in two minutes.” He hung up. I put the phone down, as George instantly rolled over beside me, taking my hands gently. “Cierra…” he whispered. “You don’t get me. I love you so much. I think about you every damn time.” I sighed. “George… can we not?” “No. I’m serious. Do you still love me?” “Still?” I laughed under my breath. “Huh. I can’t answer that.” “Well… I don’t mind tho,” he muttered. “Oh really?” “Yeah. I don’t mind you using me till I’m useless.” I actually laughed. And for a moment...a tiny one...the memories flickered through my mind like an old movie. “We got too many memories for me to move on easily,” he said quietly. “Hmm… maybe. But...” A knock on the door. George sat up. “Let me get it.” “No...no!” I grabbed his hand. “Let me go.” “Huh? Isn’t that Blinky?” “Yes. But just keep shut till he leaves.” “You okay?” “Yes. I just don’t want him acting… kinky.” He snorted. “Sure. I get it.” I stood up, went to the door... Before I could touch it, a CD slid under the gap of the door and rolled into the room. “THANKS BABY!” I yelled. “ENJOY, GIRL!” Blinky called from the hallway. I barely turned around when George swooped in like a supernatural creature and snatched it off the floor. I blinked. “Uh… that was fast. Like some kind of vampire.” He smirked. “Then let me bite you.” And then everything blurred into heat, kissing, breathlessness, bodies under dim light...the kind of moment that says everything without saying anything explicit.. He held my legs open as he slid his dick in my pussy, I moaned slightly and adjusted so he can insert it all inside me. He groaned, "Fuck! you are wet." "Yeah, that's why you can't breathe without my coochie." I whispered holding his arm so he can thrust deeper. He flipped me, opening my legs and bent down to eat my coochie, I moaned in pleasure when he inserted his finger deeply. "Okay, here we go, eat me up baby." I screamed in pleasure. He inserted his fingers, thrusting in fast and using his tongue to tease my clit. "Fuck fuck yes!" I screamed. He turned me as he whispered, "Rub my cock." I nodded and began rubbing his cock slowly, I adjusted and spit on it while stroking it. He was fucking hard as I kept stroking it fastly, hearing him groan in maximum pleasure. "Do you love it? Say it." I whispered. "Yes, Fuck you are the best." He groaned moving his waist so I can stroke faster. I gently held his cock and slide into my pussy as he raised my legs and began thrusting in roughly. "Harder Harder! Yesss!" I screamed, giving him the zeal to thrust in deeper. He held my waist tightly, spanking my ass-cheek as I could hear the sound of my wetness. I tightened my pussy, gripping his cock, and making way for my cum. "Go on, Go On, oh fuck, better don't stop." I screamed in pleasure. "You love it yeah?" he asked going faster and deeper. "Oh oh fuck I'm about to cum! oh fuckkk." I screamed like I was about to lose my life. Moments later, we lay there, chests rising and falling, sweat cooling on our skin. He brushed my hair back, fingertips warm. “God… I miss you so much.” “Mhm. You should.” He tugged my hair playfully. “So why are you refusing to elope with me?” I snorted. “George. I thought you were joking.” “No. I’m serious. I’m leaving the country later today.” “Later today?” I sat up. “What’s the time?” “Four a.m.” “Oh fuck. Fuck...” I got off the bed, looking around. “What’s wrong?” he asked. “I have something to prepare for.” “What’s that?” “You won’t know.” “Oh yes I will,” he said suddenly. “Because that’s what I needed to tell you too.” I paused. “What?” “My dad is getting married to your mom.” My whole world froze. I turned slowly. “…do you know my mom?” “Yes, of course. Back in grade 10, Your mom came and...” “Oh. Yeah… right,” I said. But inside? My heart was beating so fast it felt like it wanted to escape. This is bad. This is really bad. I stared at him, dread crawling through my spine. “H...hold on. Who’s your dad??” He scoffed. “See? You don’t care about me like I care about you.” “George, PLEASE. Who is your dad???” He exhaled. “Dominic. Yes the tycoon.” My knees nearly buckled. He went on casually, “Yeah, he’s a public figure and wealthy and all that. But don’t feel intimidated.” “How… how are you not bearing his name?” I whispered. “Uh, family legacy required keeping the original surname. Something about lineage.” “Oh…” He stepped forward. “You okay?” I nodded, but everything inside me was shaking. His phone rang. He answered it. While he talked, my mind was spiraling. Dominic. My mother. His father. Me and George. No. No no no. This is... He returned. “Sorry, babe. That was my dad.” My heart skipped again. “Oh. What did he say?” “He’s just pleading that I should help him with the wedding planning and all that.” I staggered backward. This can’t be happening. This cannot be my life. There was one question left. One question that would decide if I could even breathe past today. I swallowed. “So… uh… Are you… going to the wedding, since uh.... your father pleaded?” I held my breath. Waiting for the one answer that could shatter everything.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
George's POV I didn’t notice the silence at first, that was the strange thing about it.The bathroom door had barely clicked shut behind me when I realized the apartment felt… wrong. Too quiet. The kind of quiet that presses against your ears until you’re aware of your own breathing. I wiped my f

George's POV The hospital corridor felt too white, too clean, like a place where truth went to get sterilized before it was handed back to you. I stood there with Cierra’s phone in my hand, my thumb hovering over a number I had no business calling, yet couldn’t avoid.Jamal.The name burned qu
Cierra's POV The kiss was slow at first, but it became tensed as he grabbed my waist to the bed, trailing kisses all over my body. I moaned in pleasure and began unzipping his jean, he quickly unhooked my bra, and kept on kissing me.My body betrayed me. My composure went off. I miss him.I mis
