Chapter Sixty One

Julian’s POV

“Aria, listen to me.”

Her body is trembling so hard against me that I feel it in my bones. Her head jerks toward the voice at the end of the hall, the voice that just condemned me with four words.

You just shot the wrong man.

My teeth clench so hard I taste copper.

I’ve fought wars with less rage in my chest.

She tilts her face up at me. Those wide hazel eyes, the ones that undo me, are full of something I’ve never seen before when she looks at me. Not trust. Not even anger.

It’s doubt.

I swear I feel something inside me fracture.

“You know me,” I say, low, fierce, willing her to hear past the chaos. “Don’t let him get in your head.”

Her lips part. She doesn’t speak.

I don’t blame her. Because even I can hear it, that voice at the end of the hall sounds too much like mine.

The other me keeps coming, slow, deliberate. He doesn’t limp, doesn’t flinch. The perfect predator.

And the bleeding bastard on the floor just laughs, his crimson smile splitting wider

  • In Lust with my Sexy Boss   The Echo of Fear

    Chapter Ninety TwoAria’s POVThe room was too quiet.I paced by the tall windows of Julian’s penthouse, arms folded tight across my chest, staring out at the city lights that usually made me feel alive. Tonight, they only looked like distant fires flickering in a world I couldn’t touch. My reflection in the glass was pale, restless. My skin prickled, as though something unseen pressed against it.Julian had told me to stay here. To wait. His voice had been calm, steady, the kind of voice that could silence a storm. But beneath it, I’d sensed the current. Tension. Rage. Something he hadn’t wanted me to feel.And I hated waiting.Every creak of the building, every sigh of the wind against the glass set my nerves jangling. My body betrayed me, palms damp, throat dry, stomach hollow with dread. I pressed my hand against the cool glass, willing the city to whisper back, to tell me everything was fine.But it wasn’t.I knew it wasn’t.Julian had been gone too long.I turned away from the w

  • In Lust with my Sexy Boss   Into the Shadows

    Chapter Ninety One Julian’s POVThe elevator doors slid shut behind me with a cold hiss, and for a moment, I caught my reflection in the steel: eyes sharp, jaw tight, every muscle in my body pulled taut like a loaded weapon.Carter’s voice crackled through my earpiece.“East wing, level three. Cameras picked him up five minutes ago. Moving fast. You’ve got a window, but it’s closing.”“Keep eyes on him,” I ordered, my voice low and lethal.The elevator jolted to a stop, and I stepped out into the dim corridor. The floor smelled of bleach and old dust, the kind of emptiness that amplified every sound. My footsteps echoed, the weight of them controlled, deliberate, silent enough to blend with the shadows.Somewhere ahead, the ghost waited.I’d seen the footage, grainy, distorted, but clear enough to shake something deep inside me. Aria’s terror wasn’t unfounded. The man on the screen had walked like he owned the air around him, calm, purposeful, arrogant.And he’d looked directly into

  • In Lust with my Sexy Boss   The Ghost Returns

    Chapter NinetyJulian’s POVThe color drained from Aria’s face so fast I thought she might collapse. Her hand was trembling in mine, cold despite the heat that still lingered in the air between us.“Aria,” I said, keeping my voice low, steady, though inside, my chest was a thunderstorm. “Who was that?”Her lips parted, but no sound came. She stared at the phone like it had come alive, like it had whispered a secret meant to unravel her completely.“Aria.” I squeezed her hand, grounding her. “Look at me.”She did. Her eyes were wide, shining, haunted. And in that look, I saw something I had never seen in her before. Not fear, Aria wasn’t easily shaken. This was worse. This was recognition.Her lips moved. A single word slipped out, barely audible.“Impossible.”My blood ran cold. I didn’t need her to say more to understand. Whoever had spoken on that phone wasn’t a stranger.“Tell me.” My voice dropped, harder now, though I forced the edges of anger down. I wasn’t angry at her. I was a

  • In Lust with my Sexy Boss   The Space Between Us

    Chapter Eighty NineAria’s POVThe silence between us felt heavier than the sound of shattering glass. Julian leaned against the doorframe of my office, his shirt still creased from the chaos of the night before, his expression sharp enough to slice through me.“You were reckless, Aria,” he said, his voice low, controlled but his hand curled into a fist by his side betrayed him. “If I hadn’t gotten there in time..”“You don’t get to lecture me about recklessness.” My voice trembled, not with fear, but with the pulse of heat that had been building ever since he’d touched me last night. My body remembered every spark of his fingers against my skin, even as my mind screamed at me to push him away.He stepped closer, closing the door behind him with a soft click. The sound echoed like a gunshot in my chest.“Aria…” My name on his lips wasn’t soft. It wasn’t gentle. It was a demand, a tether that pulled me closer even when I wanted to run. “Do you have any idea what it does to me when I se

  • In Lust with my Sexy Boss   Behind the Red Light

    Chapter Eighty Eight Aria’s POVThe air between us felt like it had been ripped open.His words, short, brutal, unshakable, hung in the space like a detonated grenade, and I could almost hear the ringing in my ears.She was you.I swallowed hard, but it did nothing to ease the tightness in my throat. “I don’t… I don’t understand. How could she be me if I’m..”“Alive?” Julian’s eyes locked on mine, a storm swirling inside them. “Because the world doesn’t play by rules you think it does. And because someone decided to make sure I’d never be free of you… even if it killed the real thing.”My heart hammered so loud I could hear it in my head. “You’re saying she was a..”“Not here.” His voice was sharp, decisive. He closed the distance between us, taking my face in his hands, his thumbs brushing against my cheeks as if trying to ground me. “If you want the truth, you’re going to hear it somewhere safe. Not in this hallway. Not with her still breathing nearby.”But I caught it, the flicker

  • In Lust with my Sexy Boss   The Name Between Us

    Chapter Eighty SevenAria’s POVThe air between us was too still, like the room itself was waiting to see what Julian would say next.I swallowed. “Julian… who is she?”His jaw tightened. That muscle along his cheek flexed, the one I’d only ever noticed when he was trying to hold back words. “Aria, now is not..”“Don’t tell me it’s not the time,” I cut in, my voice shaking but sharp. “Not after what just happened. He knew your name. My name. He knew something about you that..”“That he thinks he knows.” Julian took a step toward me, and the proximity made my heartbeat pound in my ears. His cologne wrapped around me, warm and expensive, but under it was something raw, adrenaline, anger, fear.“Julian, I need to know,” I whispered.His eyes softened for a fraction of a second, like he wanted to give me what I was asking for. But then that wall slammed back into place. “If I tell you everything, Aria…” His voice dropped lower. “…you’ll never look at me the same again.”I hated that my br
