"Diana?"

I instantly felt a wave of relief when I saw the face of the person I had just bumped into. His dark, fluffy hair was neatly brushed back, giving me a full view of his face.

Those soft eyes looked at me with surprise... and a bit of worry.

"Martin?" I gasped, then immediately panicked when I heard the stockroom door creak open.

Without thinking it through, I grabbed the nearest doorknob, yanked it open, shoved him inside, and slammed it shut behind us, hiding us from sight.

  • Ricochet My Love   Chapter 42: Why

    I thought everything had just been a sinful, tempting dream… until I woke up feeling both used and very, very satisfied.My legs trembled the second I tried to move. The muscles in my thighs twitched, and the ache between them made me suck in a sharp breath.I was that sore.Every bit of evidence from last night was still written all over my body. But the man responsible for it? He’d only left a fading warmth on the empty space beside me.Why the hell was I expecting him to stay?He had a life of his own, and I wasn’t the one who got to control it.My throat felt dry as sandpaper, my lungs kind of forgotten how to breathe properly. Probably because he’d spent half the night stealing it from me.Just like the serenity of the night, we’d tried our best to keep quiet too… biting back every sound, doing everything in complete silence.With whatever strength I managed to get from a very short but deep sleep, I forced myself upright and dragged a hand over my face.I still had work to get t

    "Ride me?" he asked quietly, nodding toward the obvious invitation between his legs.I wrapped my hand around his erection. The heat of him filled my palm, and the moment I tightened my grip, his body reacted. He jerked slightly under my touch.I leaned down and pressed my lips to the tip.“Diana…” His voice came out hushed as his head lifted from the pillow, eyes searching for me.I knew that look.He loved worshipping me, kneeling between my legs, devouring me like I was the only thing he’d ever craved.But I also knew how much he loved this too… being savored, like he was the one being indulged for once.His fingers slid into my hair the second I took him into my mouth.A shaky breath slipped out of him. I could hear the restraint in it, feel the tension in the way his hand tightened slightly as he guided my head, setting a rhythm he clearly liked.“Fuck…” The word escaped him under his breath, his legs tensing as his hips began to move with my pace.He was big to take for too long

    One taste of his lips and I felt renewed. All the tears I’d cried for him, all the pain I’d endured because of him were gone, just like that.All I felt was him.He pulled away with a soft, wet sound, his breath brushing my lips. The kiss was there, the answer was there, but it still didn’t satisfy my hunger.I needed more.My throat felt dry, like a desert had formed there, and somehow Ricochet was the only one who could quench it.“Rick…” I moaned, chasing his lips when he leaned back, putting a small but deliberate distance between us.“How about we take things slow?” he muttered, like he was trying to convince himself as much as me. His thumb hovered near my cheek but didn’t touch. “We don’t have to—”Slow?As if time was something we actually had. As if someday he wouldn’t be standing at an altar exchanging vows with someone who wasn’t me.I shook my head.“Why should we?” My fingers slid into his hair, gently combing through the strands. I felt the tension there, felt the way hi

    Silence. That was all I needed.To fit into someone’s arms—the arms I ached for, the warmth I’d missed, the way he made everything ease, even just a little.I needed this to heal me, even if it was only for a moment, because after this, I’d spend another soul crashing long time trying to forget how he felt against me.“It’s okay, baby,” he murmured, pressing a gentle kiss to my temple. “It’s okay.”I wished I could believe him, but the tears I’d tried calming down all evening came spilling out unstoppably.I didn’t sob, didn’t wail. I made no sound at all. I just let myself break quietly, letting this moment sink in.If only time could pause, I’d stay right here, right now, forever.His hand moved over me, brushing my hair, rubbing my back, holding me as if I could shatter the second I let go.Martin gave me this once, but it wasn’t enough. Ricochet gave it to me, and it only made me crave more.“I’m so tired,” I whispered weakly, my voice sounded clogged. “I’m so tired of hurting.”“

  • Ricochet My Love   Chapter 38: Letting Go

    My eyes were glued to him.The very reason I was miserable. The reason my weakness kept clawing its way out of my chest no matter how hard I tried to shove it back in.And there he was. Standing right in front of me, inside my own damn house, like half of it was his.Well… technically, maybe it was since he bought it back for me. Bought the bank for me—No. That wasn’t right. Not for me. For some unknown reason, actually.“Hi,” he greeted.His voice was careful and low, like he was stepping lightly, like he didn’t want to force himself to be welcomed.Good.Because I was about two seconds away from kicking his ass straight out the door.“Mom, I didn’t expect you’d let Dad come by and look after me,” Adriana said happily. “He did really well. He cooked us dinner and snacks. And then we watched movies together.”My gaze dropped to her.A part felt the worst at the thought of ruining this moment for her… of wiping that excitement right off her face.None of this was in my plan.I didn’t p

    “Use me,” he said, completely stripping himself bare for me. “I could be anything you want.”It was like he was offering himself to me, like some kind of sacrifice. And for what? Did he think that was supposed to make me feel better?No.It would definitely make me feel worse.I liked Martin. I genuinely liked him as a person. I knew he liked me as more than just a friend, and this whole “seeing each other” and “going out together” thing was probably what he’d been hoping would happen between us.But this... this was just me being indecisive, dumb, and completely not in control of myself.One thing for sure: I would never use him or take advantage of his kindness.I shook my head, my throat felt closing. “Martin, no.”He leaned closer, both hands coming up to hold my face, warm fingers pressing gently against my cheeks as he forced me to look back into his eyes.Was that supposed to make it easier for him? To watch me fall apart on whatever scraps of sanity I had left and then let him

    Heat had never felt this intense before. Not even the peak of summer could compete with how fiery the tension between us was.“You have no idea what you’re asking for,” he smirked, way too confident for my own good.I knew exactly what a Ricochet Rosewood could do. Those years we were somehow toget

    A gasp slipped out of me when he lightly bit my lower lip. There was an eagerness in him, obvious and restrained at the same time, like he wanted to let the kiss linger but kept pulling himself back, forcing himself to take it slow.The hand at the back of my neck warmed my skin as his fingers flex

    Freed from his seduction, drunk on the first real glimpse of my revenge, I hurried toward the elevator, giggling like a kid who’d just gotten away with something illegal.I knew I’d hurt him bad but it felt so good to finally end his legacy.“Say goodbye to your happy nights, 'friend',” I snorted,

    There must be something in the air.Love? Pft. Not a chance.Probably just the cologne of the man who had the audacity to call me a freaking “friend.”It wasn’t exactly disappointment—no, it was something uglier. I couldn’t quite name it, and that somehow pissed me off more.Friend? How dare he lab
