Craved By My Husband's Best Friend 66. Gossip
Marissa POV Monday morning came way too fast. Monday was normally my least favorite day of the week, but this particular one felt like a nightmare. I knew by now that Vivienne would have spread malicious rumors about me all around the office. My only desperate hope was that the news hadn't passed our department block yet.To think all of this was happening because of a damn bottle of soy sauce. I still couldn't get over the nerve of Xavier showing up at my door later that same Sunday with the sauce in hand. The silly, unbothered look on his face while I berated him inwardly was etched into my memory."Universe, if you save me from this today, I promise to always be on my best behavior," I whispered under my breath as I grabbed my bag. It was a complete lie, but I was willing to say anything to get out of this bad luck.I really wished I could skip work today, but running away would only make me look guilty and make the situation ten times worse.Imagine my absolute annoyance and frus
Craved By My Husband's Best Friend 65. Misunderstanding
Marissa POVThere is nothing worse than being on the absolute brink of starvation on a lazy Sunday morning, only to realize you are missing the one ingredient that holds your entire meal together.I stood over my kitchen counter, staring down at my pan with a spatula in hand, my stomach letting out a growl so loud it practically echoed off the walls. I was missing soy sauce. Just a single tablespoon of dark soy sauce, and my morning would be saved.My mind instantly drifted to the front door across the hall. Xavier.I cringed, holding my forehead as the memory of yesterday slammed into me. The amusement park. The Ferris wheel. The absolute silence as he leaned across the glass cabin, his hand resting on my cheek, and his lips pressing softly against mine. My face burned at the sheer thought of it. How was I supposed to just knock on his door and ask for cooking ingredients after a moment like that? It was beyond awkward.I stared at my half cooked food. My head was pounding, my knees
Craved By My Husband's Best Friend 64. Amusement Park
Marissa POV It had been a full week since I started suspecting that Xavier Sterling might actually be Silver Mask. Every time the thought crossed my mind, connecting the claw marks on his neck, the silver glitter in his car, and how he knew my exact address, I felt completely twisted up. Half of me felt insane for thinking my arrogant boss was the guy from the club, while the other half was terrified of what it meant if I was right. To make matters worse, Alina and I had not talked all week because of our chaotic schedules. So I was totally thrown off when my apartment doorbell rang at eight o'clock on a sunny Saturday morning. I opened the door and found Alina standing on my welcome mat. She brought Roosevelt along, and before I could even rub the sleep out of my eyes, she told us all that we were going to an amusement park. I did not really have a choice, so I went to change. I put on a fitted white tank top, high-waisted jeans, and my white sneakers. When we walked down t
Craved By My Husband's Best Friend 62. Future Gordan Ramsay
Marissa POV “Or maybe he just went to the club to have fun like any other normal person,” I reasoned, trying to sound completely unbothered while mentally begging my heart to stop pounding. “Alina, you are describing your brother as if he is a monk.” “Well, he is, okay? He actually is a monk,” she insisted, threw her hands up dramatically. “Oh no, no, Marissa. The tabloids would have pasted his face everywhere, baby. ‘CEO of Sterling Holdings Wasted at a VIP Club!’ That kind of scandal is going to affect stocks, baby!” I couldn't help but shake my head with a faint trace of pity for the poor man. How could his personal life be everyone's business? Every movement scrutinized, every late night turned into a headline. Just then, a deep, velvety voice rumbled right behind us, making us both jump with hesitation. “Gossiping about me, I see.” I spun around to see Xavier strutting toward us across the polished lobby floor. He was impeccably tailored as always, wearing a dark navy suit
Craved By My Husband's Best Friend 62. Who Could She Possibly Be?
Marissa POV “Perhaps because he is in the same circle as my boss, Xav must have known to drop me here since I mentioned being his neighbor…” I reasoned in my head, exhaling a slow, shaky breath.I smoothed down the wrinkled hem of my outfit, making a strict mental note to grill him about it later when my head wasn't spinning so wildly.I turned around to head toward the lobby glass doors, taking two steps forward before a warm hand suddenly landed squarely on my shoulder."Ah!" I shrieked, jumping half a foot into the air and spinning around with my heart hammering against my ribs.Standing there with her hands planted firmly on her hips, looking like an elite interrogator caught in the middle of a high-stakes crime scene, was Alina."None of my tenants are currently in this building... why is that? Was it planned?" she bombarded me without even letting me catch my breath, her sharp eyes darting from my ruined, messy hair down to my silver heels."Can you... can you come again?" I as
Craved By My Husband's Best Friend 61. Scared Of Loosing You
Marissa POVMy eyes fluttered open to the soft, golden morning light filtering through the sheer velvet curtains of the private VIP suite.For a second, my brain was completely foggy, heavy with the lingering exhaustion of the night before. But as I shifted against the impossibly soft sheets, I realized two things simultaneously, I was completely clean, and I was wrapped tightly in a thick, plush white bathrobe that definitely wasn't mine.A slow heat rushed to my face as the memories hit me in a wave. The blackout. The marble counter. The ruthless, possessive hands dragging me into the dark, and the explosive, undeniable fire that had completely consumed us both.After I had collapsed against his chest, completely spent and unable to keep my eyes open, I had fallen asleep right there in the dark. But he had stayed. To my absolute surprise, he had carried me to the adjacent private bedroom, gently cleaned me up, tucked me in, and stayed by my side the entire night.I turned my head on
Craved By My Husband's Best Friend 5. To Zaika
Marissa POVI was the first to wake up. The room was deathly still, the only sound of the faint hum of the air conditioning. I felt the heavy and the weight of his arm draped across my waist, pinning me to the silk sheets. For a second, I let myself breathe in the scent of him, sandalwood and raw,
Craved By My Husband's Best Friend 4. Then Go Ahead
Marissa POVThe air in the VVIP lounge was heavy, charged with a static that made the hair on my arms stand up. His hands were everywhere possessive, firm, and grounding. As we made out, my fingers tangled in his jet-black hair before sliding down to the hard, sculpted planes of his abs through his
Craved By My Husband's Best Friend 3. Silver Mask
Marissa POV "You see how we cut the line? No hassle. We are hot, babe," Hailey said, adjusting her cleavage in the mirror-lined hallway. Her blonde hair was snatched back into a high, lethal ponytail, her green eyes popping against thick, dark mascara. She looked like a predator in her shimmering
Craved By My Husband's Best Friend 2. Four Months?
Marissa POVI woke up to a cold, damp pillow. My face felt tight, my eyes swollen nearly shut from the "hot tears" that had slammed down my cheeks until I finally passed out from exhaustion. The house was deathly quiet....no sound of Ethan’s humming, no scent of morning coffee. Just the lingering g
