ADELINE

“Please tell me I’m hearing things.” Jay hissed, like actual snake-like, I would bite your head off kind of hiss. “Adeline.” He clipped when I clamped my mouth shut instead. His eyes were glazed over, not with desire like Mr Arch- ugh! No more. But Jay was pissed, his eyes were the size of saucers and they didn’t look happy in the slightest.

“Jay cut it out. It’s not the time.” Kris rushed to my rescue and right on time too because I was few seconds from fainting.

“What do you mean cut it out?” He sneered like she was his worst enemy and not his blood. “How could you let this happen?!” He whirled, his full fury back on me and this time, Kris made no moves to interrupt. She knew better than to do so. Jay never let himself get too mad, the last time he had been this mad was when he almost lost the bakery to a relative who he thought he was doing a favour by teaching him the ropes, but that was a story for another day.

The crazy part was even then, when he was on the brick of los

    GRAYSON“Who’s this?” Her voice was harsh, nothing like the soft, almost whisper like tone she used with father.The urge to mess with her was strong and on a different day I might have, but not today.“Grayson Archer.” I went straight to the point. There was no need beating around the bush, not when I was about to ask for the last thing I ever thought I would. “Can we meet over lunch?”“How did you get my number?” She fired back, brushing off my question like I never even spoke.“Really? That’s the top on the list of questions?” I retorted.The line went silent for a while after that. She said nothing for a long minute and I thought she dropped the call out of annoyance, I mean I would have.“Fair point. What do you want?”“To have lunch with you.” I said without missing a breath.“Why?” She pushed.“Come to the cafe just by the Archer headquarters and I’d answer every question you have.” I said instead.The line went quiet but I could still hear shuffling like she was moving around

    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
