로그인“You moan the same way,” Jake whispered against her throat, his voice rough with desire. “The way your body trembles… the way your nails dig into my back. I love it. …Don’t lie to me, Chloe, I’ve had you before.” Her breath hitched, heat rushing to her cheeks as his words wrapped around her like chains. She wanted to deny it, to push him away, but the scent of his hair, clean, sharp, achingly familiar, sent shivers down her spine. Something about him was the same as that night, the night blurred by heartbreak and too much wine, the night she could barely remember but could never forget. And yet… he wasn’t supposed to be the man she married. ********************************** Venice was meant to be Chloe Rodriguez’s escape, not her prison. One reckless night of heartbreak leaves her in the arms of a stranger whose touch she can’t forget. Weeks later, she’s forced into a contract marriage with billionaire heir Jake Williams Martinez, only to realize he is that same man. But Jake believes he’s marrying her twin sister, Zoe, the wild one he thinks matches the woman from that night. Bound by her sister’s lies, Chloe steps into a marriage built on deception. Yet her heart belongs to another, Jake’s younger brother, Tyler, her ex-lover, whose shadow lingers in every memory. She comes in contact with Ethan, their close family friend who takes every opportunity to to be close to her as he has feelings towards her but wouldn’t want to betray them. When a secret pregnancy threatens to unravel everything, Chloe is trapped between two brothers, two betrayals, and a devastating truth: the father of her child may be the same man responsible for her family’s ruin.
더 보기“This is wrong…” I whispered, though my voice betrayed me with the quiver of want. “But I want you in me more… I need you, Tyler. My body yearns for you. I shouldn’t, but I can’t stop.”
He smirked, hovering just above me, his hand sliding down my thigh, slow and teasing. “Say it again,” he murmured, voice low and wicked, “say you need me.” “I…” The words died in my throat as his lips cut me short. His mouth crashed against mine, rough, demanding, claiming me before I could finish my confession. My heart pounded wildly, my body already arching into him as though it remembered this rhythm better than my mind did. His tongue slipped into my mouth, hot and relentless, stealing my breath. His other hand slid between my legs, fingers brushing against the aching need he had already lit inside me. I gasped into his kiss, hips jerking, betraying me completely. “You’re already so wet for me,” he growled against my lips, dragging his finger along my heat, slow enough to make me tremble. “Don’t lie, Chloe. Your body always tells the truth.” A whimper escaped before I could stop it. My nails dug into his shoulders as his fingers pressed inside, curling just right, stroking until my thighs trembled. I hated how easily he undid me. Hated how much I loved it. “Tyler…” His name left my lips like a prayer and a curse all at once. He kissed the corner of my mouth, then down my throat, his lips hot against my skin. “You’re mine,” he whispered darkly. “You’ve always been mine, no matter whose ring you wear.” His words made my chest tighten. This was madness. What else could go wrong, knowing I had betrayed my husband by sleeping with his brother, and worse, my ex-lover? My mind screamed stop, but my body cried more. And the cruelest truth of all haunted me: I carried a child, and I still didn’t know whose it was. But his mouth… God, his mouth didn’t care about consequences. It trailed fire down my stomach, lower and lower, until his tongue replaced his fingers, tasting me, driving me insane. My back arched violently, a sharp cry tearing from me as his tongue moved with sinful precision. Every lick, every flick, every greedy suck shattered me further. “Please…” I moaned, gripping his hair, pulling him closer. “Please, Tyler…” He lifted his head slightly, lips glistening, eyes burning with lust and victory. “That’s it. Beg for me. I love hearing how wrong you know this is while your body begs for more.” Before I could answer, he replaced his mouth with his fingers again, thrusting deeper, curling hard until I was writhing, my body slick with sweat. My breath came out broken, my moans filling the room. And then, without warning, he spread my legs wider, positioning himself. I felt the hard press of him against me, hot and demanding. “Tyler, no…” “Yes,” he cut me off, pushing forward, sliding into me inch by inch until I was completely filled. A shudder ripped through me, my nails sinking deep into his back. The first thrust was brutal, a reminder of what we were risking, what I had already lost. But the second… the second was bliss. My walls clenched around him, pulling him deeper, my cries echoing against his groans. Every movement was a sin, every thrust dragging me closer to a dangerous edge I had no power to resist. His pace quickened, our bodies slamming together in a rhythm that was both punishment and salvation. His hand gripped my thigh, holding me open, his lips crashing into mine as if he could devour the guilt out of me. I kissed him back just as fiercely, drowning in the chaos, in the heat, in the madness of what we were doing. My body betrayed every ounce of reason I had left, giving in to the pleasure I should never have tasted. And when the wave finally hit me, when I shattered completely around him, the truth stabbed deeper than his thrusts ever could. Everything seemed right. His touch, his heat, his body inside mine, everything I had longed for. But yet, everything was wrong. He was my husband’s brother. My ex-lover. The man who had broken me before. And now, even as I lay tangled in his arms, my body weak and trembling from his love, one truth burned me alive… I still felt too much for him.Chloe’s POVIt’s been two weeks.Two quiet, gentle weeks where the world finally stopped screaming at us.Zoe is healed, really healed this time. Not just the body, but the fire in her eyes is back. Mira is safe, laughing again, filling the house with the same warmth her mother once did. The walls no longer feel heavy with secrets or blood or fear. For the first time in a long time, our home feels like a home for a long time.Peace didn’t arrive loudly.It came softly.Carefully.Like it was afraid we’d break it.This morning, the sun poured through the windows in slow gold streaks. The baby slept peacefully in his crib, his tiny chest rising and falling in a rhythm that still amazes me. Every time I look at him, I remember how close I came to losing everything.Jake stood by the window, phone pressed to his ear, giving quiet instructions. He’s calmer now. Softer. The sharp edge he carried for so long has finally dulled.We survived.Zoe’s departure happened quicker than I expected.M
Jake’s POV“Move. Now.”That was the only word in my head as I stepped out of the car.The location Don K sent wasn’t dramatic, no abandoned warehouse, no dark alley. It was worse. An old shipping terminal by the docks, half-functional, guarded by the illusion of normalcy. Trucks moving. Men working. Life going on.That’s how he played it.Hidden in plain sight.Tyler’s voice came through the earpiece, low and steady. “Positions are set. Police units are two minutes out. Don’t rush this.”“I won’t,” I replied. “But I’m not stalling either.”I adjusted my jacket, the weight of the wire unfamiliar but necessary. For once, I wasn’t here to threaten or negotiate.I was here to end it.I walked into the terminal office like I belonged there.Don K was already inside.He stood by the window, hands clasped behind his back, smiling like a man who thought he’d already won. He was tall, lean, calm in a way that came from believing consequences were for other people.“Martinez,” he said without
Jake’s POVI didn’t sleep.Not even for a second.Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Zoe’s pale face, heard Don K’s words echoing in my head, felt the weight of the promise I had made to Chloe pressing down on my chest like a vow written in blood.Morning crept in slowly, grey and cold, like it didn’t belong to a world that was still spinning. I was sitting on the chair beside Zoe’s bed when the doctor came in, his face careful, professional.“She’s stable,” he said. “But the coma is medically induced. We’re keeping her that way to reduce brain stress. The next 48 hours are critical.”Chloe squeezed my hand as if that was the only thing keeping her upright.“Can she hear us?” Chloe asked softly.“Sometimes,” the doctor replied. “We encourage talking. Familiar voices help.”After he left, the room went quiet again, except for the machines.I leaned closer to Zoe. “You’re not allowed to leave us,” I said, my voice low. “Not after everything. You hear me? You’re stubborn. Use it.”Tyler
Jake’s POVMy phone vibrated while I was still standing beside Zoe’s bed.At first, I ignored it. I was more worried about Zoe, seeing Chloe cry this much hurts me. Nothing mattered more than the steady rise and fall of her chest, the faint hiss of oxygen, the thin line between life and death that machines were now guarding for her. Chloe sat on the other side, fingers locked with Zoe’s, whispering things only sisters could understand.Then my phone vibrated again.Harder this time.I pulled it out slowly, already knowing whatever waited on the screen wouldn’t bring good news.Unknown Number.I opened the message.You thought stopping Adrian meant this was over?I’m the one who ended him.Now I’m coming for what’s mine.My jaw tightened.Another message came in before I could breathe.Your wife and her sister tried to deceive me.No one fools Don K and walks away.I failed once to take her life.Next time, I won’t miss.My hands went cold.I looked up sharply, my eyes going straight
