The last man inside you

SERENA’s POV

Dan Lodge, my supposed stepfather, flashed a warm smile and gestured for me to take a seat. "It's good to finally meet you, Serena. Julia has spoken such beautiful things about you. And you're such a beauty, just like your mother."

I gave a small smile as I took a seat right next to my mother."It's great to be here," I managed to reply, still struggling with the sudden turn of events.

Cameron, my ex-boyfriend, cleared his throat and greeted, "Welcome, Serena." His voice carried a hint of formality, and I responded with my fakest smile, avoiding direct eye contact. Instead, my gaze was fixed on the display of a large roasted turkey at the center of the table.

Kaden, Cameron's twin brother, remained silent, and indifferent, as if I was invincible. Well, that was pretty rude. Cameron, on the other hand, looked oddly pleased to see me, a cheeky grin playing on that handsome face of his.

Taking a closer look at both brothers, I noticed the subtle differences that set them apart. Cameron, with his dark brown curly hair cut short, sported a few days' worth of stubble on his face. His eyes, a deep green, complemented his tanned skin and there was the chiseled jawline, broad shoulders, and muscular build. The rugged charm that had once drawn me in was still undeniably present.

And then that damned earring on his left ear that still made me swoon.

On the other hand, Kaden possessed a different allure. His wavy, light brown hair framed his face, and deep hazel eyes were emphasized by thick, dark eyebrows. His lips were heart-shaped, and a square jawline added a touch of ruggedness. I couldn’t see it properly,but was that a tattoo at the side of his neck? If it was,it was surely pretty hot. Dan Lodge was quite a good looking man himself,no wonder he had given birth to two Greek gods.

Before he caught me staring, I focused on my mom and tried to make small talk.

As the conversation around the table continued, Kaden asked me a sudden question. "Are you the Serena Santos, my defense attorney?" His voice was smooth and so deep.

I paused for a moment,trying to think. "Wait.. you are the Kaden Lodge, my newest client suing his brother for defamation? The one I had to meet earlier today but he canceled and shifted to tomorrow?”

He nodded, a glint of excitement in his eyes. "Yes,that’s me. Things are about to get interesting,I suppose.”

Surprised by the unexpected connection, I pressed for more information. "So, the brother you're suing is your twin, Cameron?"

Kaden nodded again, a smirk playing on his lips. “Fuck yeah."

Cameron's eyes darkened, and he retorted, "You're going to lose the case, just like you always do. A born loser."

“You are just simply a pained motherfucker,” Kaden shrugged.

Their father, Dan, intervened, attempting to diffuse the tension. "Boys, let’s not ruin the evening with legal matters. Focus on the food, everyone,shall we?”

My mom gestured toward a particular dish, a name I couldn't quite catch in the midst of the simmering drama. After the very awkward dinner filled with strained tensions was over,I found myself being led to the room where I would spend the night. Mom showed me in with a warm smile, assuring me that I would find everything I needed and she would check in later.

As the door swung open, I was met with the sight of a room that could rival a five-star hotel. And the whole room was painted and decorated with a mixture of blue and white,my two favorite colors.The queen-sized bed was adorned with plush pillows and a luxurious duvet while the large windows framed by the heavy curtains offered a view of the moonlit garden outside.

Taking a moment to appreciate the beauty of the room, I decided to draw a relaxing bath. When I emerged from the bathroom twenty minutes later wrapped in a fluffy towel, I nearly slipped out of shock. There, standing in the room, was Cameron.

I instinctively tightened the grip on my towel, my heart racing. "What the hell are you doing here?" I hissed.”You scared the shit out of me!”

Cameron took two giant strides and closed the space between us. Him being six foot and three inches tall meant that he was towering over my 5’6 frame. "You're quite the actress, Serena. Pretending you didn't know me during dinner."he said,his expression amused.

I rolled my eyes, the shock giving way to irritation. "You’re quite a great liar,Cameron. You could've mentioned you had a freaking twin brother."

"Why would I?" he calmly asked. "We hate each other. Like hell,the bastard is even suing me just for a silly misunderstanding. Is that the person I should have told you about?“

“Well yeah. Even if you did mention you had an evil twin or something,it would have been better than keeping totally mute.Thank God you guys aren’t identical,I would have had a heart attack tonight.”

He stifled a smile and then said,”So you are his attorney.Now you know who he is suing,what’s gonna happen now? You wouldn’t do that to me,would you?”

My eyebrows shot up. "So, what? You hope I'll be on your side and defend you?"

He shrugged, a mischievous look in his eyes. "It would be a pleasant surprise."

I sighed deeply. "I'm his lawyer, Cameron. My loyalty is to the law, not personal relationships."

He flashed a cocky smile. "Fair enough.”

And right then,my towel started to loosen and he helped me grab it just in time,the warmth of his fingers making my skin tingle a little bit. He gave a knowing smile I so desperately wanted to slap off.

“Uhm..” I cleared my throat,finding my voice again.”You are actually standing too close to me right now.”

“Are you affected by me?” He raised an eyebrow.

I mean,who wouldn’t be? I was naked and fragile underneath my towel and him looking like he had just stepped out of a magazine’s cover wasn’t even helping matters. I caught a whiff of his scent, his usual mix of musk and amber that I absolutely loved.

He was slowly sliding his palm up my thigh.It was large, veiny and to me, represented the very essence of masculinity. And as his palm rested on my thighs, my body was filled with nostalgia. Goosebumps began to set in when I remembered that same palm on my neck while his deep voice whispered “be a good girl and take it” as I was being penetrated by his thick veiny cock.

As I stared at him talking, my nipples began to get harder by the minute.

He traced his fingers across my wrist,swirling across my veins, following the line of each. I watched with rising anticipation as his lips touched my wrist causing some kind of sensation I remembered quite well.

My breath hitched as I felt how soft his lips were and how I desperately needed them on mine. His other hand was quick to grace my back and then he leaned in and landed another kiss to my shoulder, lingering at my neck.

He didn’t kiss me but brushed a finger up my throat in excruciatingly slow movements.

And then there was his intense stare, with those deep green eyes that was going to be the end of me.

“Admit it, you're still attracted to me, just like before,aren’t you?” He whispered against my ears as his hands traveled underneath my towel,cupping my bare ass cheeks.

I had to stifle a moan from escaping my throat.Goodness,when last was I grabbed like that?

My cheeks flushed slightly and I pushed him away. "Get out of my room before someone sees us."

He teased, inching closer again, "You can't deny it, Serena. Take a good look at this dressing table. Remember how I fucked you once, on the dressing table back at your home,one stormy night?”

I shut my eyes and opened them quickly,trying not to reminisce that night.

“I don’t know why you’re trying to bring up past memories but I am celibate now and I intend to keep it that way,” I said in a small voice.

He looked surprised and arched his perfectly shaped brow.”Really? Celibate? Since when?”

“Since we broke up a year ago,” I responded.

“You’re dead serious?” He asked with a glimmer in his eyes.”Are you trying to tell me that I am the very last man that was inside you? Which means,I am also going to be the first one again after a year? This is sick.”

Striving to sound casual I said,“Don’t get your hopes up,Cameron. It’s been a year and of course I do not want you anymore.”

“You don’t want me anymore?” I could feel his fingers moving inside my thighs,close enough to my pussy. Dang it! My thighs were already so slippery at this point.

“So why are you soaking wet when I haven’t even touched you properly yet?

Before I could respond, Mom’s voice echoed from outside the door. "Serena, dear, are you settled in?"

Panic flashed in my eyes as we saw the door knob turn. I shot Cameron a worried look. "Did you lock the door?"

His reply was quick."Uh, no, I didn't."
