Noah kissed her like he meant it.

Or rather, he kissed her in a way that would leave no doubt in Sterling’s mind about what was coming next. A performance dialed up to provoke. To enrage.

Anneliese was putty in his hands. She moaned as he dragged her tighter against him, her fingers fumbling with his shirt buttons, her hips grinding against his. She tasted like overpriced champagne and trouble.

His lips traveled to her throat, biting just enough to make her gasp, all while keeping one eye on the phone’s screen behind her shoulder. Sterling’s face was still there—tense, brows furrowed as he said something through the muted screen.

Noah put on a show.

He shoved Anneliese back onto the desk, lips trailing down her collarbone, hands pulling her blouse open. Her breath hitched as she arched beneath him, one hand tangling in his hair, the other tugging at his waistband.

“God, you’re so fucking sexy,” she breathed.

He smirked, nipping her jaw. “You think so?”

“I want you,” she whispered, pul

  • Owned on the Ice M/M Romance   Caught Between Them

    “No.”Aiden's voice ripped through the tension, savage and unyielding. His hands were fists at his sides, knuckles white, every line of his body pulled taut with fury.“Absolutely not,” he said again, louder this time, each syllable vibrating with restraint. “You don’t walk in here, after everything you’ve done, and suggest something so vile.”Nathan blinked, startled for the first time all night, but quickly covered it with a smirk. “Vile? Please. You’re angry because you know it makes sense. Keep what we’ve built, have some fun—”“Get out. Or I swear I’ll drag you out myself.” Aiden’s voice dropped, low and dangerous, as he stalked a step closer. His shoulders were squared, chest heaving, every muscle coiled tight. “You’ve got a hell of a lot of nerve. I don’t know what happened between you and Lukas, but I know you didn’t treat him well enough to ask him any favors.” His eyes never left Nathan’s face, fury burning hot. “And if you actually believe you’ve got a shot at arranging som

  • Owned on the Ice M/M Romance   A Side Arrangement

    Nathan was taller than Lukas remembered, broader in the shoulders, his hair shorter now and flecked with gray at the temples. The shadows in the hall softened nothing. His eyes still carried that same sharp edge, the one that used to cut Lukas wide open when he was younger and stupid enough to think it meant something. His smile was easy, practiced, but it only made Lukas’s chest tighten more.The shock hit him like a body check, a rush of old hurt slamming back. For a moment, his mouth went dry. He managed to croak, “What do you want?”Nathan’s smile widened. “I was just passing by, thought it might be nice to catch up.”“At midnight?” Lukas snapped, disbelief cracking through the fog of memory.Nathan only smirked, leaning casually against the doorframe like he belonged there.And then Aiden’s footsteps approached behind him. Lukas felt the shift before he heard the voice.“Nate?” Aiden’s voice was low and sharp. “Why are you here?”Lukas’s head whipped back, his stomach dropping. “

    The hall outside the medical room was quiet, the muffled noise of voices and laughter fading behind them as the door swung shut. Mac leaned against the wall, arms folded, giving Lukas a once-over like he was about to check him into the boards.“You getting along with the doc any better?” Mac asked, tone casual but curious.Lukas snorted. “Yeah, thanks to you, meddling piece of shit.”Mac chuckled, unbothered. “You’re welcome. I figured he’d cut you a little more slack once you gave him something to sympathize with.”Lukas’s grin turned sharp. “Well, he was certainly a better fuck after a little bit of pity.”Mac rolled his eyes. “Great. Didn’t ask, but great.” He let the moment hang before asking, “You staying here tonight, or heading back to Crestwick?”Lukas shrugged. “Guess that’s up to the doc since he’s driving.”“Well, if you do stay, leave early,” Mac said. “You’ve got Ell’s baby shower tomorrow.”Lukas groaned loud enough to echo down the hall. “Oh, I see. She sent you to remi

    The first few minutes were all sharp noise and the glare of cameras, but Aiden soon seemed to forget about the attention. His shoulders loosened, his posture no longer stiff as he leaned forward to follow the play. Lukas explained a few of the set-ups in his usual animated fashion, tossing in jokes about who skated like they had cement in their skates. Aiden looked like he was genuinely enjoying himself.It was comfortable. Fun. Almost like a date, if either of them were looking to date, which they weren’t. But still, Lukas found himself grinning as Aiden asked questions and offered wry comments of his own.Belmont's phone buzzed with calls here and there, until he stepped out to answer them, leaving small stretches of quiet between them. Lukas didn’t mind. The view was good, the company better than expected.As the game wound down, things remained uneventful until Ethan, their enforcer, hurled himself in front of a Reaper built like a bus, body slamming into him to protect a rookie o

    Aiden drove, hands steady on the wheel of his fancy car, the leather interior still carrying the faint, sharp scent of polish.Lukas had made a face when it pulled into the lot that morning.He’d very graciously offered Dr. Fancy-Pants the chance to drive his vintage truck, but Aiden had clearly gone insane after a night of mind-blowing sex and claimed that it wouldn’t last five miles.So despite Lukas's begging, they barreled down the highway in a soulless box, listening to the boring hum of a 'healthy' engine. Lukas stretched out in the passenger seat, long legs shoved forward, sneakers braced against the dash, ignoring Aiden’s sharp looks.They had another hour ahead of them, but they were making good time.Mostly.Lukas insisted on a handful of snack breaks, regularly whining that he was starving and reminding Aiden that he was much better behaved with his "mouth stuffed full". Aiden didn’t argue, he just pulled off at every gas station they saw and let Lukas raid the shelves like

  • Owned on the Ice M/M Romance   Anti-Boyfriend Patch

    Lukas woke to the quiet rhythm of another person’s breathing, a sound so unfamiliar in his bed that it snapped him fully awake before the warmth of it sank in.He blinked against the soft morning light spilling through the blinds, his body heavy and sore in the best possible way. And there he was. Aiden. Stretched out beside him, sheets tangled low across his hips.It was surreal. Lukas couldn’t remember the last time he’d woken up with someone like this, still sharing the same pillows instead of pulling clothes on in the dark and disappearing before dawn.He turned his head, drinking him in.Aiden looked different in sleep. The hard lines of his face softened, the composure stripped away. His brow, usually furrowed with focus or tension, was smooth. Dark lashes brushed against his skin. His lips, still a little swollen from being kissed until they were raw, parted with slow exhales. Even his hands, capable, precise, always steady, rested loosely against the sheet, fingers curled with
