LOGIN(Travis’s POV)
I shouldn’t have brought her here.
The moment I saw those wide, doe-like eyes staring up at me—half defiant, half curious—I knew Juan’s warnings were justified.
Adeline wasn’t the harmless little sister I’d imagined. She was a firecracker dressed in purple, and the longer I stayed near her, the more dangerous it became… for both of us.
And yet… here she was. In my villa. In my upstairs bedroom. Sitting on the edge of the bed, looking like sin wrapped in innocence.
“This is a bad idea,” I muttered, running a hand through my hair as I stood by the door.
I should’ve taken her straight back to Juan, but Adeline had practically dragged me up here herself, eyes sparkling from the drinks she’d had… drinks I should’ve stopped her from finishing.
Her cheeks were flushed, lips parted. Her blazer was already abandoned on the floor, leaving her in that ridiculous excuse of a dress.
“Bad idea?” She tilted her head, her voice soft but mischievous. “Then why aren’t you leaving?”
Good question.
Because I couldn’t. Because every part of me wanted to pin her against that bed and kiss every stubborn word out of her mouth.
Because the way she looked at me made me feel like a starving wolf, circling prey that wasn’t afraid—prey that wanted to be devoured.
I took a step forward.
“You’re drunk, Adeline,” I said, forcing my tone to stay firm. “You don’t know what you’re doing.”
But she only laughed—a soft, sweet sound that made my gut clench.
“I know exactly what I’m doing, Travis.”
She stood, taking slow steps toward me. Her fingers brushed my chest, sliding up my shirt, fingertips barely grazing skin.
My jaw tightened.
Her touch was feather-light, but it burned hotter than any flame.
“You think I don’t notice how you’ve been looking at me all night?” she whispered.
I grabbed her wrist, gently but firmly. “You have no idea what you’re playing with, little canary.”
Her smile turned daring. “Then teach me.”
That was it. My control snapped.
In one swift move, I had her against the wall, hands pinned above her head. Her breath hitched, pupils dilating, but there wasn’t fear—only anticipation.
My mouth crashed into hers, hungry, claiming, testing her limits. She kissed back with the same intensity, her body arching into mine.
It was messy. It was reckless. It was wrong.
But it was real.
When I pulled back, we were both breathless. Her lips were swollen, eyes glazed with heat.
“I warned you,” I said hoarsely.
Her legs wrapped around my waist, and her hands tangled in my hair. “Shut up and kiss me again.”
So, I did.
I carried her to the bed, her back landing on the soft mattress.
She tugged me down with her, pulling me into her world like a storm pulling ships under. She was all soft curves and untamed energy beneath me, a dangerous combination I was already addicted to.
Her dress slid off too easily, her skin glowing under the dim lights. Every touch, every sigh, every whispered name felt like gasoline on fire.
My hands roamed her body like I was memorizing a forbidden map, and from the way she responded—writhing, gasping—I knew there was no going back.
“Fuck, Adeline,” my curse echoed through the room. Between her soft breasts, which I had been devouring like sweet jelly, I lost control.
“Yes, fuck me.”
Holy… shit.
Where had she learned to say things like that—teasing like a shameless slut?
I was a thousand per cent sure Juan had no idea about Adeline’s wild side. If he did, then I swore I would lock her in my room with her hands and legs tied by my belt.
I would keep taking her with my cock until she could never utter another word except moans and cries of pleasure. I made sure I was the only one who tasted this sweet body.
The way she writhed when I pinched her nipples, when I dragged my mouth across her breasts and left red marks there. Or when my fingers teased her most sensitive spot below, and her body trembled, responding, even crying out toward me as if begging to be devoured.
“So beautiful,” I growled.
“All yours.”
My cock hardened.
“Damn it, Adeline,” I swore harshly, shutting her mouth with mine. “Where did you learn fucking words like a little whore?”
Every word that came from her lips felt like a curse that turned me into the filthiest man alive—horny beyond reason, just because of a few words.
In my entire life, I had never been like this. Never.
And Adeline… behind that innocent façade, she hid a poison—deadly and addictive.
She didn’t answer.
Too busy writhing and moaning beneath me.
I pulled off my pants. I had reached my limit—my cock was already hard as stone.
I needed her. To be inside her. To thrust deep enough until I could feel that every part of Adeline belonged to me. I would break her body with every burning thrust, as if we were making love in the fires of hell.
I flipped her body over, slapping her ass, and she cried out. I kissed the back of her neck, biting and licking every wet, delicious inch of her skin before pulling her legs apart.
She spread wide, like a slut ready to be ruined.
With one hard thrust, my cock slammed into hers. Adeline’s body tensed from the shock and pain.
She moaned.
I dropped my body over hers as I tried to bury myself deeper inside her.
Her back arched beneath me, nails clawing at the sheets as if they could save her from the way I drove into her. Her moans filled the room, sharp and desperate, and every sound made my cock throb harder.
“Fuck, Adeline,” I growled, gripping her hips so tight she gasped. “Look at you. Taking me so well… my dirty little slut.”
She whimpered, her lips trembling as she tried to form words, but all that came out was a breathless cry. That sound alone nearly undid me.
“Say it,” I demanded, pulling back only to slam into her again. “Say you want me.”
“I—I want you…” she choked out, eyes rolling back.
“Louder,” I snapped, lowering my mouth to her ear, my teeth grazing her skin. “Beg for me, slut.”
Her body shook with every thrust, her legs trembling against my sides.
“Please! I want you—fuck—I need you!”
“Good girl,” I hissed, nipping at her neck until I left a mark. My hand slid down, teasing her swollen clit, and she nearly screamed. “That’s it… moan louder, little whore. Let everyone know who you belong to.”
Her head fell back, hair spilling across the pillow as she cried out my name, raw and broken. My chest tightened, pride and hunger crashing together as I watched her fall apart under me.
“Only mine,” I growled, my voice rough with possession. “No one else gets to fuck this slut but me.”
(Adeline’s POV)Travis finally pulled away from my lips, but his arm remained wrapped around my waist, as if he had no intention of letting me move away.His gaze made my heart pound wildly while my mind struggled to process what had just happened.I had just kissed him.No. He had kissed me. But I had kissed him back, too.Damn it!What the hell was wrong with me?I had come to this bar because I was upset after seeing him with another woman.I should have been angry, demanded an explanation, and walked away. Instead, I was standing right in front of him with my lips still warm from our kiss.Maybe it was the alcohol. Yes, it had to be the alcohol.I'd drunk too much tonight to think clearly.Before I could come up with another excuse to justify my actions, Travis grabbed my hand and pulled me away from the table.“Hey… where are we going?”He didn't answer. His jaw was still clenched as he led me through the crowd, ignoring the curious stares of the other patrons.I struggled to kee
(Travis’s POV)“Travis, are you really not going to spend some time with us?”A woman in an excessively tight black dress rested her hand on my shoulder, followed by the giggles of two other women who had been trying to get my attention for a while.One of them had even deliberately sat so close to me that her thigh almost brushed against my leg.I held my breath, trying to ignore them.Tonight was supposed to be fun. My friends had gathered in the VIP room of my own bar, the drinks were flowing freely, and the music from the floor below was loud enough to drown out any pointless conversations.However, the presence of several women who kept flirting with me was giving me a headache.
(Adeline’s POV)I placed the pink lipstick on the table, only to pick it up again a few seconds later.I had lost count of how many times I had done the same thing since arriving home. That little object shouldn't have meant anything to me, but the longer I stared at it, the more frustration built up in my chest.Was Travis really pursuing another woman besides me? Had he been seeing her even before coming to pick me up?Damn it!I hated the possibilities my own mind kept conjuring up.I didn't even know why I felt entitled to be angry. Travis had never promised to be mine.We weren't dating, we didn't have an official relationship, and we had never even discussed what was actually happening between us. Yet, given the way he treated me, I had already started hoping that there was something different about what we shared.And that hope was what made me feel like an idiot.“Playboy,” I muttered, tossing the lipstick onto the table.Juan had been right. I should have listened to his warn
(Adeline’s POV)I had just walked out of the campus building with Jasmine when she gently nudged my arm.“Look.”I followed her gaze and immediately spotted the familiar black car parked not far from the main entrance.Travis stood beside it, wearing a dark shirt with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows.His gaze immediately found us, as if he had been waiting for only one person all this time.Me.There was no doubt about it. I was definitely the one he had been waiting for. Especially since he flashed me that subtle, teasing smile of his.Jasmine held back a grin. She clearly knew why Travis was here.Unfortunately, my heart started racing just at the sight of him. I shouldn't have felt this way. I hated feeling nervous, especially when someone's mere presence could make my heart beat so ridiculously fast.“Looks like someone really keeps his promises,” Jasmine remarked.I let out a quiet snort. “I never told him to come.”“But he came anyway. You know, when someone is serious about
(Travis’ POV)I had just gotten into my car when my phone vibrated on the center console. Marcus’s name appeared on the screen. He was the manager in charge of one of my sports bars.I answered the call while starting the engine.“Travis, we need to discuss the construction of the new branch in the West District. The contractor has sent over several revisions, and—”“Reschedule the meeting.”I leaned my head against the headrest for a moment, still thinking about Adeline’s face from a few minutes ago.My jacket was still wrapped around her when she got out of the car. I could even imagine how she had tried to hide her flushed face after I teased her.“To what day?” Marcus asked.“Tomorrow or the day after. Pick a time that works with my schedule.”“Are you sure? They want the final decision this week.”“I said reschedule it.”Marcus fell silent for a few seconds before finally agreeing.I ended the call and placed my phone beside the gearshift.The truth was, I wasn’t short on work. I
(Adeline’s POV)I stood in front of the mirror in Jasmine’s bedroom, staring at my reflection with an uncertain expression.The clothes I was wearing weren’t mine. In fact, I could hardly believe Jasmine actually owned something that, by my standards, could be considered reasonably modest.Most of her wardrobe consisted of low-cut tops, short skirts, or dresses that made me wonder how she could walk around in public without constantly feeling the need to pull the fabric down.“Why does she like these kinds of outfits?”After nearly fifteen minutes of rummaging through her closet, I finally found a black short-sleeved top and a pair of high-waisted jeans.The top still showed a little bit of my neckline, but at least it didn’t make me feel as if I were wearing an outfit that had lost half of its fabric.“This is safe,” I muttered to myself.I fixed my long hair, which had become slightly messy from sleeping, then picked up my bag from the chair.I should have felt relieved that I had m
