Craving The Badboy Chapter 10: The Handsome Silver Fox
Danilo’s Pov The mayor's ballroom gleamed with chandeliers like frozen waterfalls, casting golden reflections on the polished floor. Classical music swelled from a live quartet tucked near the fountain of champagne, and every corner of the space glittered with sequins, silk, and status. My bowtie felt too tight.My father adjusted his cufflinks as we walked in, his eyes scanning the room like he was measuring its worth in favors and potential deals. He wore power like a second skin. I, on the other hand, wore a black Armani suit my mother bought me not long before she died and. It was one of the many reminders of her that I hold dear, especially now that I find memories of her slipping away from me. The pain of her absence has dissipated with each passing day, and I don't know how to feel about it. I took myself out of those thoughts as my glasses kept slipping down the bridge of my nose, and I had to fight the urge to push them up every five seconds.I gave in to the urge and pushe
Craving The Badboy Chapter 9: Good boy
Carter’s Pov I watched him—backed up against his locker, hazel eyes wide behind those nerdy glasses, chest rising and falling like he’d just sprinted a mile. It was kind of pathetic, honestly... but weirdly endearing.Chase would’ve eaten him alive this morning if I hadn’t gotten to him. The kid has no sense of self-preservation.Still, there was something about Danilo. Something fragile… but not fake. Like he was trying hard not to break in front of everyone.I leaned in closer, my voice low. “Do you want me to tell Chase and the other jocks that you’re fair game again?”His silence said everything.I smirked, already turning to leave. Let him stew in that fear a little longer. Maybe it’d teach him something. Or maybe I just liked watching him squirm. Either way, I took a step—Then I felt it.Fingers around my wrist.I paused.Not hard enough to stop me. More like a desperate grasp. Like grabbing a ledge before you fall.“Please don’t,” Danilo said, barely above a whisper. “I’ll do
Craving The Badboy Chapter 8: "I Own You"
Danilo’s Pov I arrived at school the next morning and immediately spotted Antonia outside, deep in what looked like a heated conversation with her on-and-off boyfriend, Lloyd, in front of his car. I didn’t have to be close to guess what the fight was about, probably another one of his wandering eyes getting him into trouble. That was their usual issue. Lloyd couldn’t seem to help himself. His hormones were getting the best of him. Not wanting to get dragged into whatever drama was unfolding, I gave them a half-hearted wave, even though I knew neither of them noticed, and made my way inside the building. The second I stepped into the hallway, the memory of yesterday came rushing back. My stomach twisted. Chase had been waiting for me after school, ready to beat the shit out of me. He hadn’t gotten the chance, but that didn’t mean today would be the same. Today, I might not be so lucky. The thought of Chase slamming me into my locker and pounding me with his fists made my skin craw
Craving The Badboy Chapter 7: An Awkward Dinner
Danilo’s Pov I sat stiffly at the dining table, hands clasped in my lap, listening for the steady sound of footsteps approaching. A moment later, my father, Hector Ramos, stepped into the room, his fast graying hair and towering frame, looked sharp in a charcoal suit, exuding that same stern authority he always carried like an armour.I rose slightly from my seat and offered a polite, “Good evening, sir.”He gave a curt grunt of acknowledgement, unbuttoning his suit jacket to reveal the crisp sky-blue shirt underneath before settling into his chair across from me. I hesitated for a beat, gathering some nerve, then asked with forced casualness, “Dad, what made you cut your business trip short? I hope everything went well.”He paused mid-motion, his expression hardening as his eyes flicked toward me. “Why? You don’t want me home?”My throat tightened under his gaze. “No, sir. I didn’t mean it like that. I was just… curious. Sorry for being forward.”There was a tense pause before he ex

“Back off,” Carter said. “Now.” The two muggers hesitated, then muttered something I couldn’t quite comprehend and bolted, their footsteps retreating fast into the darkness. I slumped against the wall, trembling. Carter stepped closer, eyeing me. “You good?” I nodded quickly, but my voice cracked. “Y-Yeah. I… they just came out of nowhere.” Carter’s eyes flicked down, checking him over without being obvious. “They didn’t hurt you?” “No. Just… scared the crap out of me.” “Yeah. You’re shaking.” I looked up, meeting Carter’s gaze. For a moment, we just stood there in the quiet street, the sound of crickets and distant cars the only soundtrack. The adrenaline in my veins was slowly ebbing, replaced by a deep, overwhelming sense of humiliation. Of all the people to see me like this. Carter reached into his jacket pocket and pulled out a granola bar. “Here.” I blinked. “What?” “You look like you’re gonna pass out. Sugar helps.” Does he always have that in his pocket? I shoved
Craving The Badboy Chapter 5 : Danilo Gets Robbed
Danilo’s Pov I couldn’t stop smiling.“You totally killed it in there,” Antonia said, bumping her shoulder against mine. “I mean… I don’t want to make your head grow bigger than it is right now, but you just made half the club look like extras in a school play.”I laughed under my breath. “Don’t say that too loudly. Julian might set my locker on fire.”“Oh, he’s definitely going to do something petty. But let him. He looked like he swallowed a lemon when Mrs. Harrison asked for your full name.”We walked side by side down the hallway, our footsteps echoing in the quiet school as students dispersed. The late afternoon sun had dipped, casting long shadows through the tall windows. The building felt empty now, like it was holding its breath between the end of classes and the start of evening activities.At the front doors, Antonia hesitated. “So… change of plans. Mind if I bail on you? Harper just texted me—movie night at her place. I was gonna say no, but she promised snacks and she ha
