DAMIEN'S POV

It’s been a year. A year of muted mornings and nights choked with silence. A year since Adrian was swept away, a year since I last saw his infuriatingly handsome face. A year of living with a guilt so profound it felt like a physical weight, pressing down on my chest, stealing my breath.

I still couldn’t believe it. One year. Today.

With trembling hands, I finally unlocked the door to his room. The cleaning staff had been in every week, dusting, vacuuming, making sure everything was pristine. A morbid ritual I insisted on, a futile attempt to keep him alive, at least in some small way.

The air hung heavy, pregnant with ghosts. I stepped inside, the scent of lavender and sandalwood, his favorite, hitting me like a punch to the gut. My vision swam. He was everywhere.

I saw him there, sitting at his desk, the lamplight haloing his blond hair, his brow furrowed in concentration as he pored over some medical reports. He’d always wear those ridiculously oversized glasses, per

  • Chasing my Bestfriend × Lover   Chapter 118: Not Gonna Waste It

    DAMIEN'S POVThe world had shifted on its axis, not in some cataclysmic disaster, but in a quiet, profound way that settled deep within my bones. Adrian had given me a chance. The words still echoed in my ears, a melody I never thought I’d hear. “Okay, Damien,” he’d said, his voice softer than I remembered, yet firm. “You can chase me. But don’t expect it to be easy.”Easy? Nothing about this was easy. My heart, a knot of regret and desperate hope, swelled so much I thought it might burst from my chest. I wanted to fall to my knees, to weep, to shout my thanks to the heavens. Instead, I simply nodded, a silent promise forming on my lips: I will make amends. I will give you everything.The guilt was a constant companion, a heavy cloak I couldn’t shed. Every night, as I lay awake, my mind replayed a montage of past mistakes, each flicker of a memory a fresh stab to my gut. The carefree way I’d flirted with clients at the clinic, the casual intimacy with random women at bars – it was a

  • Chasing my Bestfriend × Lover   Chapter 117: Another Chance

    ADRIAN'S POVThe first thing I registered was the dull throb behind my eyes, a persistent ache that felt like a tiny drummer had taken up residence in my skull. Then came the unfamiliar scent – a mix of something musky and vaguely sweet, not my own detergent, not my own apartment. My eyes fluttered open slowly, fighting the hazy light filtering through unfamiliar blinds. And then I saw him.Damien.He was there, his face buried deep in my shoulder, his arm a heavy weight across my waist. My breath hitched. We were in bed, that much was clear, but it wasn’t my bed. And we were naked. The stark reality of our intertwined limbs, the warmth of his skin against mine, sent a jolt of pure, unadulterated panic through me. My body felt… wrong. Every muscle protested, a deep, persistent ache that screamed of overexertion. My shoulders, my back, even the soles of my feet felt tender.What the hell happened?My mind raced, trying to grasp at any scrap of memory from last night. Meeting Gayle’s br

  • Chasing my Bestfriend × Lover   Chapter 116: Handcuffed for a Talk

    DAMIEN'S POVThe morning light, thin and hesitant, crept through the gap in the heavy curtains, painting faint stripes across the opulent hotel room. I woke first, as I always did, my senses instantly alert, my mind racing even before my eyes fully adjusted. Then I saw him. Adrian. Naked beside me, his dark hair a messy halo against the crisp white pillow, a faint flush on his cheek from the warmth of the expensive duvet.A shiver traced its way down my spine, not of cold, but of a profound, dizzying mix of elation and dread. It was like a cruel, beautiful déjà vu, a mirror image of a morning that had haunted my every waking moment for over a year. Back then, waking up to find Adrian beside me, naked and vulnerable, had filled me with a primal disgust, a deep-seated fear of something I couldn't yet name. I’d recoiled, my stomach churning with revulsion at the mere thought of a man. But now... now, there was no disgust. Only a fierce, soaring happiness that made my chest ache. I had

  • Chasing my Bestfriend × Lover   Chapter 115: Mine Forever (R18+)

    ADRIAN'S POV My hips were gripped, strong hands pulling me up onto my knees. My ass rose, high in the air, a familiar vulnerability already settling deep within me. Sweat slicked my back, a thin film against the cool air of the bedroom, and I could feel a knot of anticipation tightening in my core. Damien’s hands, so sure and possessive, spread my cheeks wide, exposing me fully. I felt a flush creep up my neck. I knew what he saw – my hole, glistening slightly, stretched and used from our frantic rounds moments before, yet still ready, still inviting. His fingers dug into my thighs, a pleasurable ache, as he positioned himself behind me, the blunt head of him brushing against my entrance, a delicious, agonizing tease.“You’re mine,” Damien growled, his voice a low, rough rumble that vibrates through my bones. “All mine.” The words resonated deep within me, a possessive claim that, despite everything, sent a complicated shiver down my spine. Mine. All mine. It was a surrender, a pro

  • Chasing my Bestfriend × Lover   Chapter 114: All Mine (R18+)

    DAMIEN'S POV My heart thrummed against my chest, a frantic drumbeat against my ribs, as I watched Adrian kneel before me. His lips, full and soft, were wrapped around my cock, and he let out a soft groan as the drug coursed through his veins, blurring the edges of his reality. His eyes, when they flickered up to mine, were glassy, unfocused, but there was something in them... a flicker of recognition, or maybe just confusion, something that made my stomach twist in a way that wasn’t entirely unpleasant.“What—what’s wrong?” I asked, my voice rough, deeper than I intended. My fingers tangled in Adrian’s hair almost instinctively, a familiar softness I hadn't felt in years. I tugged lightly, pulling Adrian’s mouth off me for a moment, needing to see those eyes, wanting to know what was going on inside that beautiful, messed-up head of his.Adrian shook his head, a slight tremor running through him. His breaths came in short, uneven gasps, each one a tiny tremor against my thighs. “I—

  • Chasing my Bestfriend × Lover   Chapter 113: Need a Release (R18+)

    ADRIAN'S POVThe heat started as a flush, a pleasant warmth blooming in my chest after a sip of wine. I’d been nursing the glass for twenty minutes, trying to build up the courage to approach the guest of honor’s brother. Gayle had been my best friend for a year, but her family was on another level entirely. Tonight, at her lavish birthday banquet, I was supposed to finally meet the crown prince.Then the warmth curdled. It turned prickly, invasive. It felt like a thousand tiny ants were crawling just beneath my skin, a frantic, desperate itch I couldn't scratch. The crystal chandelier above bled into a smear of gold, and the polite murmur of the ballroom warped into a low, menacing drone. My vision swam."I... I need some air," I mumbled to no one in particular, setting my glass down with a hand that trembled.The short walk to the restroom felt like a marathon. Each step was heavy, my legs thick as cotton. I gripped the marble countertop of the sink, staring at my reflection. My pup
