JUNE’S POV

The next few days were a special kind of torture. Having Luca in the house was like a constant, low hum of electricity, something I could not unplug from. So when I said I was going to the store to restock the pantry, it felt like a pardon, a tiny escape.

“I’ll come with you,” Luca said. He appeared in the hallway just as I picked up my keys. “Adrian’s still asleep. Marlene’s out.”

My heart sank straight to my feet. “That’s really not necessary. I can manage.”

“I know you can,” he said, his voice calm and final. He plucked the keys from my hand. “But why should you have to? I’ll drive.”

The car ride was suffocating. The silence was not empty, it was full, packed with everything we were not saying. I could feel the heat coming off him in the driver’s seat, his fingers tapping a restless rhythm on the wheel. I stared out the window, watching my safe little neighborhood blur past. I did not feel safe at all.

I could not take it. I reached out, fumbling for the radio dial. Gene

  • In Love With My Son's Best Friend   0069: KARMA IN TIGHT SKIRT

    FRANKLIN’S POVI backed the car out of the garage too fast that morning. My tires chirped against the concrete. The door rumbled shut behind me, and I just sat there for a moment, engine idling, staring at the house. It looked like it belonged to someone else.My hands were tight on the wheel, knuckles pale. I could still hear her voice in my head. Quiet, and calm, and lethal. “With Karen?”Goddamn it.I shifted into drive and pulled away. The street was quiet and cold in that early gray light. I didn’t turn on the radio. I didn’t want music or talk shows. Just the low hum of the engine and my own thoughts, chewing me up from the inside.How much had she heard? That was the real question, looping over and over. Last week, I’d been in the study with the door closed, my voice low. I told Karen to hold off until the weekend, that June was on edge about the Chicago trip. The week before that, I’d taken the call in the garage, the burner phone tucked in my gym bag. I thought I’d been caref

  • In Love With My Son's Best Friend   0068: ASHING THE PAST

    JUNE'S POVHis hands slid up my sides, palms rough and warm against my ribs, thumbs tracing the sensitive undersides before cupping me fully, squeezing with just enough pressure to draw a low moan from my throat."God, these," he murmured, voice thick. "I've been aching to bury my face here again, feel you arch when I suck you slow and deep, taste how hard you get for me."The words flooded me with fresh heat, my pussy clenching hard, dripping now, the ache almost unbearable. I ground down on him, chasing the drag against my clit, friction teasing but not enough.He surged up suddenly, mouth closing hot and wet over one nipple, sucking deep, tongue swirling firm before his teeth grazed the peak, a sharp pinch that melted into throbbing warmth spreading outward. I gasped, fingers threading tight in his hair, holding him there as he moved to the other, lavishing it with the same relentless attention, wet sounds of his mouth filling the quiet room.My hips rocked faster, desperate for mo

  • In Love With My Son's Best Friend   0067: LUCA UPGRADE

    JUNE’S POVFranklin was gone. Not just to the office. Probably not coming back tonight as well. Maybe not ever. And that thought should have hollowed me out, but instead it left me feeling relieved and breathless, like I had stepped to the edge of a dive and felt the wind rush up, cool and insistent against my skin.I stood there, eyes on the table. His plate with bites missing, fork laid across it. Those dark circles from his mug on the marble countertop. All these small traces of a marriage that had been unraveling for longer than I wanted to admit, long before Luca showed up and made everything feel possible again.Then his arms slid around me from behind, familiar now, strong without trying to be. Luca’s chest met my back, solid and warm, his chin finding its place on my shoulder. He did not say anything at first. Just held me, like he knew I might need the anchor, even though my hands stayed steady on the counter’s edge.His breath moved slow against my neck, stirring those fine

  • In Love With My Son's Best Friend   0066: BURN IT DOWN, SWEETHEART

    LUCA'S POVI pulled her up right away, pressing her back against the cool tile. The contrast made her gasp into my mouth as I kissed her deep and messy, tasting the salt of myself mixed with her, not caring at all.She kissed back just as hard, arms looping around my neck, her body slick and warm sliding against mine, nipples hard against my chest, the soft press of her belly against my spent length already stirring something again.We broke apart, breathing ragged, steam thick around us. She smiled then, small and wicked, her fingers tracing my jaw. “Now we are even,” she whispered, lips brushing mine. “See you at breakfast.”She slipped out of the shower, grabbed a towel, wrapped it quickly, and was gone. The door opened and closed so softly the water almost covered it. I stood there longer, head tilted back, letting the spray hit my face, cooling the flush on my skin.I loved this side of her, the one that took risks without looking back, hungry and unapologetic. The way she looked

  • In Love With My Son's Best Friend   0065: MOUTHFUL OF TROUBLE

    LUCA’S POVI woke up with my body still thrumming from the night before, every muscle loose and sore in that deep, satisfying way, like June's presence had settled into my skin and refused to leave.The memory kept replaying: her lowering herself onto me inch by inch on the couch, the creak of the cushions under our weight, her thighs quivering as she rolled her hips in slow, deliberate circles that pulled me deeper each time. Franklin had been right there in the next room, ice rattling in his glass, completely unaware.I had lain awake half the night staring at the dark ceiling, feeling the echo of how she had clenched around me when his footsteps echoed down the hall, her body tightening in a rush of fear and raw hunger, gripping me so hard I had to press my teeth into my cheek to keep from groaning out loud.She was coming apart at the seams, and somehow I was the thread she kept wrapping tighter around herself.Adrian knocked sharply on the door at seven. "Going for a run. You wan

  • In Love With My Son's Best Friend   0064: IGNORANCE IS BLISS

    JUNE'S POVHe traced slow circles at first, teasing the edges, then pushed three fingers deep in one smooth motion. The fullness stretched me perfectly, almost overwhelming, his palm pressing firm as he curled them forward, rubbing that spot inside that made my knees weaken. I bit down on his shoulder again, fabric muffling me, breathing in the thick scent of sex still clinging to his skin."You're soaked through," he murmured against my ear, voice rough. "Still carrying me inside you and you want more already. You love knowing he could open that door and see exactly how wet you get for me, how your body opens only for this."I nodded, frantic, grinding down onto his hand. The sounds were quiet but filthy, rhythmic and wet in the stillness. My own scent filled the air now, sharp and undeniable, blending with his.He eased off suddenly, pulling back until only the tips remained, holding there. I whined softly, trying to take more, but his other hand kept my hip still."Tell me," he sai
