HAILEY

No. I’m not okay. I’m broken. I want you so much, but I can’t take the final step.

Her breath came in short, harsh gasps. Her heart raced, and her body shook with fear. Slowly, her mind cleared, and she looked up at the man she wanted so badly. Jayden. He’d given her the most intense pleasure she’d ever felt, and she knew she’d made him feel good too, but she couldn’t give herself fully. She couldn’t fully give herself to anyone.

“I’m not ready, Jayden,” she said nervously. Waves of disappointment hit her, and she wrapped her arms around herself. The emotional pain was overwhelming.

He pulled her trembling, naked body into his lap. “Too soon after your ex-boyfriend?” He sounded both worried and frustrated.

He wrapped his arms around her, and she rested her head on his shoulder. “Yes.” The excuse wasn’t really true, but it worked. Tears ran down her cheeks, and she closed her eyes, her heart aching.

She had hoped.

She had wanted.

She had tried because it was Jay

    If James caught her eating chocolate, she knew he’d be angry. The punishment for the pastry she’d just eaten wouldn’t be pleasant. Chloe rubbed at the chocolate stains harder, her heart racing at the thought of James walking in right now. I need to get rid of the evidence! “It’s just chocolate. It washes off.” The deep, slow Texas drawl came from the kitchen doorway, and the voice startled her so much that she let out a small squeal. It wasn’t James, thank God. It was a voice she knew far too well. Gabriel Walker. Chloe turned toward the sound of that husky male voice, the one that always made her shiver. Gabe Smith had the sexiest voice she’d ever heard. That deep tone, mixed with his Texas accent, sent chills down her spine. And then there were his eyes beautiful green eyes full of kindness. Why does he have to be so hot? It’s unfair for one man to be this handsome and nice. She’d known Gabe since she was a kid, but she’d really started noticing him after moving back to Roc

  • Broke Up With My Fiance Then Fucked My Brother's Best Friend   Chapter 117: Watching Every Move

    Epilogue The Story of Chloe and Gabe Chloe's POV Chloe Roberts hated parties. Even though the New Year’s Eve party was full of family and old friends from Rocky Springs, the small town where she grew up, she still felt uneasy. Her mood had dropped when her fiancé, James, told her that the pretty black cocktail dress she wore didn’t look good on her. He didn’t say it nicely either, he told her it made her look fat and that she should change. She didn’t change, not because she wanted to fight him, but because it was the only nice dress she owned that still fit her curvy body. She had bought it just for the party at her mother’s house. Since she didn’t go to many parties, her closet was full of jeans, t-shirts, and sweatshirts. As a veterinarian who worked with animals all day, casual clothes were perfect for her job. At first, Chloe had been excited about the party. She didn’t usually enjoy fancy events, even though she was a billionaire now and they were part of her life. But

    Ally nodded. “Yep. Chloe really likes Travis.” “I’m glad we won’t have to wait long to see you again,” Christine said happily to Travis and Ally. Terrence’s mind wandered to Chloe and how sad she had seemed lately. He reminded himself that he needed to look into her situation with James. Something about their relationship didn’t feel right. And after what Christine had said about James acting rude at the gym, Terrence wasn’t happy about Chloe marrying someone who might not treat her well. Now that he knew what real happiness felt like, he wanted the same for all his siblings. “Hey, Ally! That’s the buffet I told you about,” Christine squealed. “Let’s stop there,” Ally said eagerly. “I’d love to try it.” Travis gave Terrence a pained look. Clearly, he didn’t like Vegas buffets any more than Terrence did. Unfortunately, Ally and Christine seemed to love them. “I’m a billionaire. We can eat at any restaurant in this city. Do I really need to suffer through a buffet?” Travis s

    “More than I ever thought I would be, buddy. And you will be, too. Christine is an amazing woman, and she’s perfect for you. She wants to meet Aria now so she can see if there’s anything she can do before she goes back to school. She wants to help. Your woman has a kind heart,” Travis said to Terrence sincerely. Terrence nodded. He knew how big her heart was, it was as wide as the ocean. “I know. I just wish she’d stop hugging you for saving her life.” Once was fine, but it felt like Christine hugged Travis every time she saw him. And even if Travis was his best friend, Terrence didn’t like watching his fiancée hug another man under eighty. Travis raised an eyebrow. “Possessive, aren’t you? I remember when you used to tease me by flirting with Ally.” Terrence flinched, remembering how he’d done that just to annoy Travis because he thought it was funny. He didn’t think it was funny anymore. “I regret that now,” he muttered. Travis smirked. “Good. Then I’ll stop telling Christine ho

    Travis crossed his arms and raised an eyebrow at Terrence. “Roberts, she already knows you’re an asshole. I told her myself. But for some reason, she still wants to marry you. She’ll be here.” Travis pulled up the sleeve of his expensive suit and checked his watch. “For Christ’s sake, it’s only noon.” Terrence looked at his own watch. “It’s one minute after,” he said gruffly. “She’s with Ally, and I’m sure my wife isn’t running away. I stopped worrying about that a long time ago. She loves me,” Travis said with a smug smile. “Christine loves me too,” Terrence replied confidently, trying to calm his nerves. He should have stayed with Christine in case she got cold feet. But instead, he got ready with Travis while Christine went with Ally to buy a new dress. Even though they were getting married in Vegas, Terrence wanted the day to be special. He wore a tuxedo, and Travis wore a nice suit. Luckily, Travis and Ally were free to come and stand up for them. Terrence had thought about a

    “It was a dangerous mission. We were shot down before we could finish what we came to do. I was lucky I managed to land the helicopter without it catching fire. But the crash was bad. I took most of the hit. Everyone else was able to get out on their own.” The mission had been a mess, but at least no one had died. “Who got you out?” Christine asked worriedly. “My team. They had to carry me for miles before help came.” “You actually let them carry you?” she asked, surprised. “It was that or bleed to death in enemy land. Right now, I’m just damn glad I lived.” She looked at him with suspicion. “Did you get hurt on purpose?” Terrence shrugged, not wanting to admit that he had taken the worst of the crash to protect his men. He had tried to make the helicopter hit his side first. “I was the senior officer and commander,” he said simply. He didn’t answer directly, but Christine’s eyes softened as she understood what he meant without him saying it. Their eyes met, and Terrence
