ANMELDENChapter 216: Olive's POVFive more minutes.That's all I needed, just five more minutes and I'd be out of this building and away from the lingering stares and knowing smirks and the way everyone had looked at me when I'd walked out of Zane's office with my hair slightly messed up and my lips still swollen from kissing.Five more minutes and I could breathe again.I grabbed my laptop bag from under my desk and shoved my notebook inside with more force than necessary, my hands moving on autopilot while my brain was still trying to process everything that had happened today, and there was a lot to process because apparently my life had become one of those chaotic romance novels where everything happened all at once and you didn't get a second to catch your breath.The meeting this morning with Elena and her calculated comments about knowing Zane's preferences, with Antonio sitting too close and Cole asking questions designed to make me look incompetent, with Sophia smirking from across t
Chapter 215: Zane's POVHer hand slid between us and I felt her fingers working her clit and the sensation combined with the downward angle of her hand, seeing a partial version of her touching herself while I fucked her was almost enough to make me lose it."That's it," I encouraged, my hips snapping forward harder, faster, chasing both our orgasms now. "Good girl, my good girl, show me how much you need this, show me how much you need me—"I was rambling now, was losing the ability to form coherent thoughts, was just fucking into her over and over while she touched herself and moaned my name."Zane," she whimpered, and I could feel her starting to tighten around me. "Zane, I'm going to come, I can't hold it—""Come," I commanded, my hand tightening slightly on her throat. "Come for me, Olive, let me feel it, let me feel you fall apart on my cock—"She shattered with my name on her lips and I felt her pussy clench around me in rhythmic pulses and that was it, that was all I could tak
Chapter 214: Zane's POVI grabbed her hips and pulled her to the edge of the desk, spread her legs over my shoulders."And you're going to scream," I continued. "You're going to scream my name so loud that everyone knows who makes you feel this good. Everyone understand what we are doing. Understand?"Olive nodded."Good girl," I said, and then I put my mouth on her.The taste of her exploded across my tongue and I groaned against her pussy because she was sweet and perfect and so fucking wet.I started slow, using broad strokes of my tongue to lick through her folds, tasting every inch of her, learning what made her gasp and moan and buck against my face at that moment."Oh god," Olive whimpered, and one of her hands tangled in my hair.I found her clit and circled it, teasing, while I listened to her desperate sounds."Please," she begged.I sucked her clit into my mouth and Olive screamed, her thighs clamping around my head."Yes," she cried out. "Just like that—"I brought my hand
Chapter 213: Zane's POVMy office door was twenty feet away and I could feel Olive trying to slow down, trying to pull her hand free, trying to say something about how people were watching and this was inappropriate and we needed to talk about what just happened.I didn't care.Didn't care that half the executive floor had just watched me drag her out of that conference room like a caveman claiming his woman, didn't care that Nina was probably confused and thought this was unethical, not that I give damn about ethics, and Sophia was probably delighted and Antonio was probably laughing his ass off.The only thing I cared about was getting Olive alone so I could remind her—remind both of us—that when it came down to it, none of those other people mattered.I reached my office and pushed the door open with my free hand, still holding Olive's wrist in an iron grip, and pulled her inside with enough force that she stumbled slightly before catching herself.The second we were through the do
Chapter 212: Zane's POVOlive continued, her voice staying perfectly professional even though I could see the slight tension in her jaw, "we designed a collection that bridges athletic performance with high fashion. The pieces incorporate the same sensor technology but with a more refined aesthetic that positions her as the face of Quantum AI's expansion into women's athletic markets."She showed Elena's designs—sleek black with silver threading, fitted and powerful while still maintaining femininity, and I watched Elena lean forward with obvious approval."In terms of supporting roles," Olive said, clicking to a new slide, "Sophia Mercer and Stephanie will be handling artistic direction and styling for all four models.""Sophia Mercer and Stephanie will handle artistic direction and styling," Olive continued. "Jessica and I will manage logistics and coordination. The photoshoot will take place over three days next week at locations around Seattle."She clicked off the presentation an
Chapter 211: Zane's POVThe only thing keeping me from dragging Olive out of that conference room the second I saw Antonio's hand on her shoulder was the knowledge that breaking my brother's fingers in front of half the office would be bad for business.Not impossible.Just bad for business.And I was trying to be better about separating my personal rage from professional decisions, trying to be the kind of man who could sit through a meeting without imagining all the ways I could make someone bleed, but fuck if Antonio wasn't making it difficult.I'd arrived late on purpose because I'd known what I'd find and I'd needed those extra ten minutes in my car sitting in the parking garage trying to talk myself down from doing something I'd regret, something violent and permanent that would feel good in the moment but cause problems later.My father was using Cole as a spy, I'd confirmed that much through my own sources over the past week, it wasn’t hard to tell the Maddox boy to spill out
Chapter 70: OLIVE's POVBrenda squeezed my arm once before pushing open the heavy conference room doors.The second we stepped inside, every head turned toward us.No—toward me.The conference room was massive, the dark wood and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Seattle. A long table dominated t
Chapter 63: ZANE's POV"How did that happen?"My voice cut through the room, sharp and controlled, even though every muscle in my body was wound tight enough to snap."Fuck."I grabbed another glass and tossed it toward the water dispenser, my eyes snapping toward the corner of the room where Walter
Chapter 65: ZANE's POVI took a deep breath, head tilting back to stare at the bright moon hanging in the sky.For a second, I let myself enjoy the beauty of it. The way the cold air smacked against my skin. The cool vapor escaping my nostrils with each exhale.
Chapter 67: ZANE's POV"We could go even more feral," I said, pulling her toward me until her head rested against my chest, her soft hair fanning across my skin like silk, the intoxicating scent of her filling my lungs with every breath."You're something else, you know
