ADELINE

I held a hand to my chest. My heart raced but I didn’t dare leave the door, I couldn’t trust my legs not to betray me. What the fuck was that? Was Grayson actually trying to kiss me? Again?

Shuffling came from the other side of the door and that was my cue to beat it. I pushed off the door and raced down the hallway till I was back in the living room.

Johnny said something but for the life of me I couldn’t be sure what it was and I didn’t wait to find out. I shoved the guilt down and sprinted out of there like the building was on fire. Maybe it was, or maybe it was just my chest that was, either way, I needed some air.

I hail the first cab I see without hesitation and only released a breath when I safely in its four walls. “Pack Avenue, The snack hut.” I told the driver and leaned further into the seat, letting it deal with all the weight.

The drive was just what I needed to not go insane with the endless thoughts that ran through my head, none of them even remotely sensible.

    ADELINEI wanted to scream, shout, anything to get him as far away from my door as possible. This always happened. For some absurd reason, I always got my hopes up that we could be something more or it meant something more. Somewhere in my messed up brain, I even considered that that could have been the reason for all of this, the reason he always felt the need to mess with me was because somewhere in that stony wall he called a chest, his heart actually beats for me.Stupid. So fucking stupid! Jay and Kris had been right, I never learnt. I hadn’t learnt from the five wasted years and I sure as hell hadn’t learnt shit from how he got me into another contract.I slept with him, like I actually, without any substance influence had sex with him, my husband boss and it actually felt good, I actually felt powerful for the two seconds it had taken before he grabbed that little piece of joy and squeezed it to nothingness.After what was way too short a time compared to how long it’s going to

    GRAYSON“I really don’t know the next step for now, but I…” I trailed off. Why was I trailing off? It was the truth, it was nothing more than a good night, wasn’t it? Shit.I rubbed the spot between my eyes as the truth crashed down on me without warning. I wasn’t sure what it was, but last night had definitely been anything but nothing.“We’d talk later Damian, she’s still in the room.” I sighed, the tension in my shoulders worsened by the minute. Getting even was supposed to feel more…satisfying, but it didn’t. And it was so fucking annoying.“And that matters why?” He dragged and I could almost picture the cocky smirk on his face.But he was right. Why did that matter? That had been the plan all along. Get her to fall in love with me, get her pregnant and get her tied to me regardless of what Dahlia may or may not say to her.“The more time we spend together, the more possible it would be to get her pregnant, that won’t happen if she overhears this now would it?” I cocked a brow ev

    ADELINEOne word. If I was asked to describe the crazy that was Grayson Archer in one word, it would definitely be disarming. Not sure what I had been expecting, maybe something calm, something robotic? I don't know, but definitely not that! Not mind blowing, leg cramping, paralyzingly good!I stretched like a cat, all the excitement and energy in my body non existent. I didn't dare look beside me but there was no shaking the satisfaction that settled in my chest every time I remembered how I had all but begged for it.How was I supposed to look at him now?! After acting like a bitch on heat with only one goal, to get a dick in me, scratch that, get his dick in me.I sighed as I let myself sink deeper into the chair. Thank heavens Grayson had the pills. I'm still not going to bother my head about how he got birth control pills or why he had them in the first place, but thank heavens because my brain took a hike and would have been more than willing to just get rid of the ache between

    ADELINE"Mine." He whispered against my lips. The bucket of ice I needed to slap some sense into me.I began to pull away, "I am not you-" the words never made it out because just as quickly as he'd kissed my brain right out of my skull, he grabbed by boobs, his hands surprising soft considering how intense and demanding the kiss became."Mr Archer I don't think we sh- fuck yes!" I cried as his mouth wrapped around my breast through the I wore. His grip on the other tightened, bordering on death grip, but instead of waking me up, it pulled me under, deeper, till my body screamed for more, more of his kisses, more of his touch, just more.His kisses were hungry as he trailed a path from my ear to my collarbone, like a man starved who'd finally gotten a taste of his first meal. My blood boiled to unreasonable heights, my breaths were nothing but short pants as I gave in, letting him in. I would probably regret it later, but at that moment, all I wanted to go feel every ounce of the man

    GRAYSONAlicia gestured with more enthusiasm than a toddler, she droned on about the progress report from the PR team and why that meant a meeting be scheduled, but to be honest, I could hear her talk but I heard not even a word she said after 'markets'.Adeline hadn't gone home. She left the airport, yes, but she hadn't stepped a foot in the house. There were cameras everywhere but her room. Unless she hopped through a window and straight into her room, then she wasn't in the house. It wasn't even a weekday so school was totally out of the equation, no matter how serious she was, she wasn't that serious.Where was she? The question tormented me, dragged my last bit of resistance and tossed it aside. I racked my brain for all the places she has visited in the past but none of them was important enough to rush off to straight from a five hour flight without rest.Dahlia? It seemed highly unlikely considering they hadn't spoken in years. Yes, I had gone that deep into her background. Bu

    ADELINEI was going insane. I had to be. It was the only sensible explanation for why my pulse jumped and my heart raced every time we stumbled into the same room at the same time. The tension griping and clawing my insides never eased even after ignoring him for two days. It was easier to than I had expected considering we basically lived in the same penthouse and while it was large, it wasn't massive.I shoved the last of my dresses into the bulging bag, moments away from snagging it's zipper. We were finally leaving and with any luck things would go back to the way they were, before the trip, hell, before the study, before I knew what his lips felt like, what his touch could do.Like the traitor she was, my pussy pulsed as if he was in the room with me. I was definitely going insane. I wasn't sure if it was even going to make a difference, but it was better to try and attempt to stay sane than wait for whatever the crazy was going on in my head to flush itself out because there was
