My heart dropped. He maintained his gaze on me. "I don't....I don't know what you are talking about." I stuttered nervously. He scoffed. "That nervous stutter just gave you away." My heart pounded. "I am not a fool, little girl. I know it was you. The green eyes, delicate hands and slender

THIRD POVMario noticed Evelyn's eyes resting at the entrance, making him look in the direction, and he saw his father. "Oh, dad," Mario said, unwrapping Evelyn, who lowered her gaze as she held her arm and rubbed it nervously. "I need to see you in my office." Adrian's husky voice placed Evelyn o
EVE POV Who could that be? Is it Mario? But he said I would not see him till tomorrow morning. The knock came again. Sighing, I reached for the light and switched it back on before getting out of bed. I rubbed my arms gently as I walked towards the door. I turned the locks and opened the door.

As if the universe was on my side, the music, WAP by my girl Cardi B, began to play. I made slow and seductive steps towards the pole without taking my eyes off him. I grabbed hold of the pole and made a spin. With my back facing him, I leaned down slowly and seductively, twirling my waist to t

"A club? " "Yeah. It is Friday and not that late. We could hang out, have some drinks, have a little fun before we go to the mansion. And we will spend the weekend there." I stared at him. "Come on. You are going to love it," he said, smiling at me. I could use some fun. In here has been b
