Nathan's POV

I looked at Margot, who was peacefully sleeping on my bed. I could not take her back to her since she was too wasted to be left alone. Since she fell asleep in my car, I took the liberty of deciding where we should go. Besides, in my house, I could look after her.

Her face was partially hidden in shadow, as her hair covered it.

I came closer and gently removed one of the strands. Her face was calm and sweet. She was snoring slightly, which I have found adorable.

I have pulled the blanket over her shoulders, making sure she is warm. When I tried to move away, Margot stirred in her sleep.

" Come lie with me," she mumbled with her eyes still closed. I froze in a spot, unsure of what to do, but then she repeated. " Please, lie with me."

I knew I should reject her plea, but I did not want to do it. I lay next to her, keeping her wrapped in the blanket like an adorable burrito.

Margot mumbled something under her breath, but it was too quiet to understand.

  • One Night Stand with the Enemy   Chapter twenty nine.

    Margot's POV So there she was, my so-called friend, staring at me with her puffy eyes and smeared makeup. She looked nothing like the woman I had known, but after everything, the question was whether I knew her. " What?" This word came out of my mouth before I could think. Nicole looked at me and then looked around. " Can we talk inside?" I stayed still, unable to decide whether this was a good idea, but then I took a hesitant step back, letting her in. " Thank you," Nicole said quietly before coming in. " Get to the point," I replied, motioning her to the living room. " You said you were sorry, so tell me what you are sorry for and then leave." Nicole stopped in her tracks and turned around to face me. I watched her with my arms crossed. " You have every right to be mad at me," she said slowly, and I let a bitter laugh. " Wow, thank you. I was not sure how I felt about you, but now, with your approval, everything is finally clear. I am mad, what a ground-bre

  • One Night Stand with the Enemy   Chapter twenty eight

    Margot's POV For the next couple of days, I was experiencing an emotional rollercoaster. On one hand, I could not shake off the feeling of overwhelming shame. How could I stoop so low and let myself get carried away with simple lust? It was not like me; I have never acted this way. On the other hand, I could not forget Nathan's touch, his lips wandering on my skin and his soft kisses making my skin burn. No matter how many times I told myself what we did was wrong, those images kept popping in my head, giving me a headache. I was torn between the disgust for myself and the desire to run back into Nathan’s arms. This inner fight kept me exhausted and emotionally drained. On top of that, I could not stop thinking about Sam and whatever he had hidden in his sleeve. I knew him long enough to know he would not admit his defeat and leave me alone. This man was too stubborn to do it. Something I once admired could become a serious problem, especially since I was gone now, and all his

    Third-party POV" Well..." Pen twitched in my hand under Mr. Reed's watchful gaze. My forehead was covered with tiny drops of sweat. The conference room became unnaturally warm. " Go on, honey, don't be shy." Vikki placed her hand on my shoulder in an encouraging gesture, but all I wanted right now was to be far away from here. This was supposed to be my big day, a once-in-a-lifetime chance to become someone. I could not blow it. I took a deep breath, hoping Mr Reed would blame my nervousness on stress. " All the projects I presented to you earlier are going great. We are running the last tests to make sure they will be flawless," I managed to keep my voice steady and professional. " I do not want to disappoint you or your investors." Mr Reed fixed his glasses and leaned back on his chair. " Good. I do not want any mistakes. I have put a lot of faith in you." His tone was calm, but I had heard a threat hidden under those studied words. This man was not someone to be trifled with.

    Nathan's POV.I froze, stunned, as I watched Margot gather her things in panic. Her eyes were wide open, and her hands were trembling while she frantically picked pieces of her clothes. What had just happened? A moment ago, I had the best s*x of my life, and now the woman whom I secretly admired for years seemed scared, ashamed. I could not tell. In a different situation, I would find it funny, but now, I was far from laughing. Margot shot me a glance and shook her head as if she had some internal conversation that did not go well. " What are you doing?" I managed to ask, running my hand through my hair. I was still naked, but I couldn't care less. Not at the moment like this. Margot shuddered as if my voice were painful to listen to. She said nothing, returning to dressing up. "Say something, for God's sake," I said, standing up from my bed. I wrapped myself with a sheet and took a step closer, trying to put my hand on her arm. The one I had kissed not so long ago. She flinched u

  • One Night Stand with the Enemy   Chapter twenty-five

    Margot's POV Nathan placed me gently back on the bed and took a step back. " Are you sure about that?" He asked, and I only gave him a weak nod, too scared to speak. I did not trust myself right now. Nathan's eyes darkened as he got closer to me. His palms brushed against my skin like a feather, sending me shivers. I bit my lower lip, glancing at him. Nathan tensed under my stare, but a gentle smile curled on his lips. He lowered his head, searching for my lips. I raised my head and met him halfway. Nathan wasted no time and pushed his tongue inside my mouth, tasting me. We kissed for a while, but I wanted more. I grabbed his shirt with my shaking hands. My palms met his hard muscles. Nathan parted his lips from mine, almost making me whimper. " Let me help you," he chuckled, removing his shirt. I swallowed hard, staring at his V-line disappearing under his jeans. Nathan's skin was perfectly tanned. " Your turn," he winked at me, and I found myself blushing. " Unless you want m

    Margot's POV My heart was pounding as I watched Nathan’s shocked expression. I sat on the bed, observing him. " What?" He asked again as if unsure of what I had just said. " You have heard me," I replied, sitting straight. " I want you to make love to me." My head was spinning, partially because I had too many drinks and partially because of what I had just offered. For the last thirty minutes, I have been pretending to be asleep just to enjoy Nathan’s presence. It felt wrong, yet it felt so right at the same time, and it confused me. His warm embrace was so sweet and calming. My skin still burned where he touched me, but I only craved for more. " Why?" His question had taken me aback. " What you mean, why?" I asked carefully. " Why do you want to do it?" Nathan looked straight into my eyes. " Don't you want it?" He shook his head, and my heart sank. I read those signs wrong. I made a fool of myself. " I want it, but I want it for the right reason,"
