Dirty Little Secrets CHAPTER 56.
KINGSLEY'S POVFelix caught up to me before I'd made it ten feet down the corridor."Kingsley."I didn't stop walking. "Not now, Felix.""Yeah, now." He fell into step beside me, matching my pace easily despite the fact that I was practically speed-walking. "Because you're chasing after a girl who just told you very clearly not to follow her, and I want to know if you actually have a plan, or if you're just going to keep making it worse.""I have a plan." I didn't, not really. Just a growing knot of panic and the certainty that letting her walk away with that lie hanging in the air was the worst possible outcome of tonight."Great. What is it?""Tell her the truth." I stopped at the end of the hallway, dragging a hand through my hair. "That's the whole plan."Felix studied me for a second, some of the earlier amusement draining out of his expression, replaced by something steadier. "Okay. Then go."I found her outside, near the fountain at the edge of the quad, arms wrapped around her
Dirty Little Secrets CHAPTER 55.
KINGSLEY'S POVI knew that voice before I even turned around.Felix.Of course it was Felix. Of course the one moment in months I'd actually let myself want something without calculating the cost, the universe decided the audience for it would be my best friend standing in the doorway of an empty amphitheater with his mouth hanging open like he'd just witnessed a car accident."Oh my God." Felix's voice climbed an octave, disbelief written across every inch of his face. "Oh my actual God."Summer flinched back from me so fast she nearly toppled off the bench, smoothing down her shirt, her face flushing a deep, mortified red. I straightened slower, dragging a hand through my hair, trying to look like a man who hadn't just been kissing someone like his life depended on it."Felix." My voice came out flat, a warning wrapped in a single word."Don't 'Felix' me." He stepped further into the amphitheater, pointing between the two of us like he was accusing us of a crime. "I leave you alone
Dirty Little Secrets CHAPTER 54.
KINGSLEY'S POV My eyes grew wide, still in shock of what Summer just did. In a split of a second, I recovered, giving in totally.My hand was still resting against the nape of her neck, my thumbs tracing the line of her jawline as if to convince myself that this was actually happening. The taste of her—sweet, sharp, and entirely overwhelming—still burned on my tongue. Her chest rose and fell in rapid, shallow breaths, pressed so close against mine that I couldn't tell whose pulse was hammering louder.When I finally forced myself to pull back an inch, Summer didn't move. Her eyes were still dark, heavy-lidded, staring up at me with an expression that made every rational thought in my head short-circuit."Kingsley," she whispered. Just my name, but the way she said it—ragged, uncertain, almost accusing—felt like a hand gripping my throat."Don't," I said, my voice rougher than I meant it to be."Don't what?" Her chin ti
Dirty Little Secrets CHAPTER 53.
SUMMER'S POV I loosened my grip on his hands and took a sharp step backward, the air suddenly feeling thin between us. "Huh!?" I gasped in shock, unable to process what he had just said. "I... mmm..." Kingsley stuttered, his confidence evaporating as he rubbed the tip of his nose—a nervous habit I’d never noticed until now. I just stared at him, my throat suddenly became tight as I gulped down nervously. My heart was already hammering against my ribs from the near-disaster of mentioning Mr. Noel, but now, it was threatening to burst for an entirely different reason. An abrupt, agonizing silence settled over the room before he finally cleared his throat. "You asked me... what my thoughts were about you, right?" He tightened his knuckles, taking a step back to match mine and creating a small, safe distance between us. "I never really wanted to say this until after the Orientation Showcase. I did not want to pressure you." I stood frozen, listening quietly, my shoulders ten
Dirty Little Secrets CHAPTER 52.
KINGSLEY'S POV"Tomorrow" never came, because right now, Summer and I are rehearsing for the impromptu Orientation Showcase happening tonight."We will start with this one, right?" Summer asked for the umpteenth time, panic lacing every of her word."Summer..." I pulled my chair closer and took her hands in mine. Her fingers were ice-cold. "Just eathe."She took in a shuddering breath, her pulse racing right where my thumbs rested against her wrists."Trust me, nothing is going to go wrong," I said softly. "Just believe.""But—""No buts. Absolutely none." I cut her off with gentle firmness, squeezing her hands slightly tighter. "If you’re scared, shift your focus." I paused, watching the rhythm of her breathing slow down, before adding, "Focus on me."Her eyes flickered, locking onto mine with an intensity that made my own chest to tighten."I just really want to do a good job," she whispered, her gaze dipping down to our joined hands before rising back up. "I need to prove myself. E
Dirty Little Secrets CHAPTER 51.
KINGSLEY'S POVIt took a few seconds standing there in the rain, Summer's heartbeat hammering against my chest, before I managed to pull myself back together enough to function."Okay." I eased back just enough to look at her properly, wiping the mix of rain and the tears off my face. "Okay. We need to get everyone out of here.""Good, you're back," George said, already herding the group toward the cars. "We can debrief once we're not standing in the middle of a parking lot."Victor caught up to me as we walked, still catching his breath from whatever had gone down inside. "You look like you saw a ghost.""Close enough." I glanced at him. "What exactly happened in there? Start from the beginning."He exhaled, dragging a hand down his face. "Roberts showed up right on schedule. I called him out about the men he's had following Summer — figured a threat of exposure might buy us some breathing room.""And?""A

Dirty Little Secrets 2
SUMMER'S POV I slowly woke up, also trying to fight the throbbing headache I was feeling. "Where the hell am I?" I thought. The place smelt like woods mixed with cigarettes, and another thing that smelt like lavender. "What a weird combination." I thought. I woke up fully, and observed where I w

SUMMER'S POV I arrived at the club very late. I knew I was going to be scolded by Mr Noel, the club manager, but I cared less. Life was already hard enough for me. I clutched my bag, so tightly like my depended on it. Because my life really depended on it. I walked in, slowly. The club reeked
