Evelyn

I found myself gazing at him blankly as he averted his eyes, avoiding any direct contact with me. It was difficult to discern whether it was guilt etched across his face or something else entirely. It was questionable whether I should confront him about it, given that he hadn't shown an ounce of guilt when he unceremoniously dumped me or when he was caught in a rather compromising situation with Chloe. God! He had even taken it a step further by publicly declaring his reconciliation with his ex.

A man like him didn't seem capable of guilt, nor could he care for me. If he had cared, he wouldn't have done what he did to me.

"I think I'd rather head inside to find my friends; I can find my way home with them," I said, my emotions in disarray and the effects of alcohol only intensifying the confusion. I couldn't determine if it made me more foolish or insightful, but that was a secondary concern at this point. "Thanks for your help."

I needed to stay far away from him, for my own s

  • My Dad's Bestfriend    Just The Start

    SiennaI struggled to open my eyes, a throbbing headache pulsing through my skull as I tossed and turned on the bed. A single thought cut through the haze.Wait...Where am I?I shot upright, blinking at the unfamiliar surroundings. This wasn't my room.Holy shit. Where the fuck am I?Panic crawled up my throat—until I noticed the shirt I was wearing. A man's shirt. White. Crisp. Familiar. I lifted the collar to my nose, and the scent hit me—his cologne.And with it, the memories.I froze. Images flashed behind my eyes: his mouth on mine, his tongue between my thighs, the way he touched me, held me, consumed me. A shiver raced down my spine as I swore I could still feel his tongue against my pussy, his fingers filling me, his body pinning me down in heat and fire.I clenched the duvet in my fists, a strangled breath leaving me. Regret coiled inside me, tightening, choking.God. What did I do?I can't fucking believe it. I let Alexander Grayson do this to me.Out of everyone—it had to

  • My Dad's Bestfriend    Surrendering To The Devil

    SiennaAs Alex's lips crashed against mine, my eyes fluttered shut, and my hands found their way into his hair, fingers tangling in the silky strands without a second thought. His kiss was demanding and consuming, his tongue exploring my mouth with a hunger that felt almost primal, like a man starved.His hand remained firmly between my legs, fingers teasing with maddening precision, while the other gripped my waist, pulling me closer as though any space between us was unbearable. His thumb effortlessly pressed against my clit, slow and deliberate, drawing a gasp from my lips that he swallowed greedily.The sensation sent a jolt through my body, and I clung to him, overwhelmed by the raw intensity of his touch. Two fingers slid inside me with an ease that made me tremble, my walls clenching around him instinctively, slickness coating his hand.It had taken Ryatt hours to find my clit and he found it just like that? Well, perhaps it was the blessing of having fucking countless women wi

  • My Dad's Bestfriend    Make Me Forget About My Ex?

    SiennaI couldn't tell if it was the alcohol coursing through my veins or Alexander Grayson himself that sent a shiver tearing through my body.Devil's Den.And what was I now? The prey?"What... what do you want?" I stammered, his body heat so close to mine that it was nearly suffocating. The pain in my chest throbbed, sharp and relentless, clouding my thoughts. I wasn't supposed to find comfort in Alex's presence, yet my traitorous body leaned into the warmth he radiated.I could feel the tension in his muscles through his shirt, the heat of him pressed against my back. With every steady breath he took, his body stiffened further, his desire becoming palpable."I should be the one asking you that question," he murmured, his voice a low, gravelly rumble that sent goosebumps cascading over my skin. His breath teased the sensitive curve of my neck, and I clenched my fists to keep steady. "What do you want, Sienna?"The question left me speechless. What did I want? At that moment, I wan

    Sienna"Sienna!" Ryatt gasped, his voice sharp with disbelief. "What the fuck are you doing?"Kelly's hand slowly rose to her cheek, her eyes wide with shock, as though she couldn't believe what had just happened. Honestly, I didn't blame her. I had always treated her far better than she deserved. Listened to her endless demands. Overlooked every mistake. Ignored every red flag. I'd done everything to make her happy—everything. She had been like a sister to me. Had been. Not anymore."What the fuck I am doing?" I pointed at myself, letting out a bitter chuckle. "I can't believe you even have the nerve to ask me that, Ryatt. You two were over here about to fuck each other—my boyfriend and my best friend—on the night of my birthday. My fucking birthday. After I dropped everything to spend it with you both. And you're asking me what the fuck I'm doing?" My voice cracked with rage as I stared him down. "Tell me, Ryatt. In all six years of our relationship, did you ever actually love me?"

    SiennaBirthdays were supposed to be special. Mom and Dad had always made sure of that, and they still did. But my boyfriend and my best friend? Their actions consistently told me otherwise. To them, it was just another day.Even now, as we left the party that had been thrown for my birthday, they behaved as if it was nothing out of the ordinary."I think we should go to Vortex tonight," Kelly suggested, her words slurred from too much alcohol. She was clearly too drunk to be clubbing but still brimming with excitement. "It'll be so much fun!""Yeah," Ryatt agreed, his energy predictably matching hers. "She's right. We should go.""Guys, we just finished celebrating my birthday, and it's already late," I interjected, exasperated. "You've both had too much to drink. I think we should call it a night and head home."Kelly rolled her eyes at me. "Oh, come on, Sienna. Don't be such a bore. Live a little! It won't kill you.""Yeah, Sia," Ryatt chimed in, giving me that look—the one that sa

  • My Dad's Bestfriend    Resistance

    Sienna I sat cross-legged on the floor, spreading the black paint across the woman's face with my hand. Then, with careful precision, I added flower patterns in shades of gray and white. The contrast brought her face to life, the flowers giving it an ethereal quality. I layered the petals, smoothing them, adding depth—one layer, then another, and another.Ruined Daisy.The name for the piece struck me like lightning, clear and undeniable. I whispered it aloud, testing the sound of it. Yes, Ruined Daisy.I'd been struggling to name this portrait for weeks. I'd even talked to Ryatt about it, though that conversation had gone nowhere. To be fair, Ryatt never showed much interest in my work anymore. He'd stopped coming to exhibitions entirely, though he used to attend when we first got together. Maybe he found art boring—some people did. And I couldn't really blame him for that.As I worked, the buzz of an incoming video call pulled me from my thoughts. I glanced at the screen. Kelly's n
