Julian’s POV

I shoved through the heavy doors. Night air slammed into my face—cold, and sharp, stabbing deep into my lungs like broken glass. Lights burned everywhere—gold pouring from the building windows, white beams from waiting limos cutting the dark, and red taillights streaking across black pavement.

But the noise died fast. Voices dropped to low murmurs. Footsteps softened on stone. The crowd thinned to shadows. Left me alone with the rage clawing up my throat.

I walked fast to the corn

  • Claimed Raw by my Husband's Ruthless Best friend    163 — The Evidence

    Leon's POV I sat in my favorite exclusive club, Orion, deep inside the VIP booth. The lights were just as I needed it to be — dim and red, painting everything in a dangerous, bloody glow. Heavy bass of the club music thumped through the walls and into my chest, making my ribs vibrate with every beat. The air was thick and suffocating with cigar smoke, strong whiskey, stale sweat, and sweet women’s perfume. My shirt stuck uncomfortably to my sweaty back and chest from the heat coming off me.I popped another bottle of champagne now. The cork flew out with a loud pop. Cold foam spilled over my fingers and on the table, icy and real sticky. The sharp, sweet smell rose up quickly, burning my nose.Victor roared, his voice real loud with joy as he opened four huge suitcases on the table. They were packed full, so loaded with neat stacks of cash. The fresh, crisp smell of new money flooded the entire booth, so sweet and intoxicating.“Ohh… That’s what I’m talking about!!” he shouted ou

  • Claimed Raw by my Husband's Ruthless Best friend    162 — One Last Betrayal

    Leon's POV I stood still as Bella walked toward me. Her steps were slow and deliberate, swaying her hips under the loose bathrobe. She stopped right in front of me, now so close that I could feel the heat radiating from her skin. She then wrapped her arms around my neck, sliding her fingers into my hair, her nails scraping my scalp real hard, hard enough to get all my attention.“Betray me one last time..,” she breathed those words hot against my mouth, dragging and stressing each word so well that it hit me real deep.She looked right into my eyes, her breath tasted sweet and dangerous. “And I'll kill you myself.”She moved those eyes, searching through my face, then she kissed me hard. Her lips crushed against mine, so aggressive and full of warning. I tasted all her poison and threat in that kiss — sweet, angry, and addictive.I pulled back for a second, staring into her eyes, checking to be sure. what's her take on this. I knew right then — I had won her over. I smirked low, a

  • Claimed Raw by my Husband's Ruthless Best friend    161 — Unsettled Business

    Leon's POV I decided to crash at the hotel where Bella was staying with my money. I was still angry as fuck. My jaw still throbbed with sharp, hot pain. My bruised ribs still burned with every breath I took. Fresh blood still tasted sharp on my swollen, split lip.The five-star hotel stood tall and gleaming against the dark city night. Golden lights poured from every floor. The grand entrance had massive glass doors that opened with a soft, expensive whoosh of cool, conditioned air.Inside, the lobby of the hotel smelled rich — fresh white lilies mixed with polished wood and faint, sweet cigar smoke. Soft classical music played low from hidden speakers. Crystal chandeliers sparkled like ice above me. The marble floor felt cold and smooth under my shoes. Everything looked perfect, luxurious. Still, none of it calmed the fire raging inside me.I still had unsettled business with Bella from tonight. I couldn’t believe she had ganged up with Julian while she was fucking me the whole time

  • Claimed Raw by my Husband's Ruthless Best friend    160—Broken Friendship

    Leon's POV — The Same Night.I slammed the door hard behind me, the loud bang echoed through the long hallway like a gunshot. My blood boiling hot under my skin. My jaw clenched so tight it hurt. I was still shocked at Ava’s audacity. How dare she talk back to me like that? I would put her in her place. She had become too naughty because of him.Too bad she remembered what I hoped she would never remember. But she shouldn’t be shitty and nasty to me. I wouldn’t take that from her. Not ever.I didn’t fucking care.I smirked, walking away. Her loud screams still echoed through the mansion, sharp and desperate. But I wasn't changing my mind anyways. The sound only made my smirk wider, her scream delightful to my ears.“Shit!” I roared out, stopping as a text came in on my phone. I pulled it out of my pocket. My smirk grew sharper when I saw the name on the text. Julian.“So he wants to meet,” I scoffed to myself. It was as if our minds had synced for the first time. I also wanted to meet

  • Claimed Raw by my Husband's Ruthless Best friend    159 — Trapped But Broken

    Ava's POV.I got home after two days stay with Julian. My stomach twisted sharp into painful knots as the car stopped in front of his huge mansion. The evening air felt heavy and cool on my skin at the same time.I knew I couldn’t avoid this forever. Leon was definitely going to explode when he saw me. I expected shouting, rage, maybe even his hands on me again. But I had no choice. I was still married to the asshole. I also had to stay close if I wanted to destroy him at the Gold Gala.I took a slow, deep breath before going in there. My chest still felt tight. I stepped out of the car. My heels clicked loudly on the stone path, the sound sharp in the cool and quiet evening. The big mansion loomed over me, cold and dark.“He’s not here at the moment, Mrs. Vance,” Ms. Lin said the second she saw me, her voice polite but cold, it was almost as if she was pitying me. All the other servants lowered their heads quickly. No one dared look me in the eyes.The huge house felt more quiet than

    Ava’s POVHe dropped me on the bed, so gentle. I fell softly on the bed, breathing hard. My back sank into the cool sheets as I looked up at him, my heart pounding wildly in my chest.Julian stood over me, his eyes so dark with hunger and something much deeper. I watched him as he unbuckled his belt, the metal clicked loudly in the room. He pulled his zipper down. His cock sprang out, throbbing and heavy, so hard. The swollen cap of his dick was already leaking, wet with pre-cum.He climbed over me, still moving slow, his presence felt overwhelming as heat spread all over. He pushed my legs wide open, his gaze dragged from me as he lowered his head between my thighs. His hot, wet tongue licked real slow, going up my soaked pussy, then sucked my swollen clit so hard. "Mmmmm!!" I moaned loudly, my hips already jerking real bad against his face. The wet, filthy sounds of his mouth sucking and licking filled the room. Pleasure shot through me like volts, sending shivers down my spine. H
