Their lips met.

It was not a kiss. It was an accident, a brutal, awkward clash of lips. It lasted less than a second—a hot, confusing press of mouths, off-center and hard.

Nathan recoiled as if scalded. He staggered back, catching himself on the edge of the desk. His heart hammered against his ribs like a trapped bird. Noah on the other hand, stood frozen, his hand still half-raised, his eyes wide with a stunned, uncomprehending horror.

The room was utterly silent. The only sound was the ragge

    Noah dropped the package in the car. The plastic crinkled against the seat, as he turned, eyes scanning the empty walkway and the dark road. He bolted to the walkway, his heart a beating heavily. Nathan had played him. Why had he believed him? Why had he thought, for even a moment, that Nathan was ready for conversation, for peace? He sighed, a deep, weary sound that carried the weight of the entire day. He pulled his phone from his pocket, his fingers moving before his mind could caution him. He called Nathan’s number.It rang, and for some moment he expected it to go to voicemail, to be ignored. But the connection clicked.And Noah’s voice died in his throat. His lips parted, but no words came. What could he possibly say?“What?” Nathan’s voice sounded from the phone. It was flat, detached.“Did you… leave?” Noah asked. His heart skipped, a painful lurch.“I’m right behind you.”Noah spun around, and behold Nathan was standing beside the car, leaning against the passenger door. H

The only sound was the ragged, rhythm of their breathing.“It was a mistake. I didn’t mean it.” Noah was the first to speak, still breathing heavily.Nathan chuckled. Bitterly. “Oh, it was?” He stepped back, his leg crashing against the side of the table. He stumbled, but regained his footing.“Be careful.” Noah’s hands came out, a reflexive gesture to stop him.“Stop!” Nathan cried out—not loudly, but the pain behind his voice was everything. He continued to step back, but Noah kept taking short, tentative steps closer. “

  • SECOND SIN    CHAPTER 31: A KISS

    The lobby was diffrent that afternoon with more bustiling crowd, which had atttracted a low hum of professional chatter and clinking cutlery. But still Nathan and Elle were able to finf a good spot to talk, because he hadn't seen each other since early morning. Elle had to meet a doctor's appointment, that morning before work, and he had to cover for her.Nathan pushed a piece of grilled chicken around his plate, his appetite nonexistent. Across from him, Elle ate with a steadiness that felt alien to his churning stomach.“You’ve been quiet all day,” Elle said finally, putting her fork down. Her gaze was direct and filled with concern. “What’s wrong? And don’t say ‘nothing.’ I can hear you thinking from over here.”Nathan set his own fork down with a soft clink. “Just… thinking,” he murmured, his eyes fixed on his uneaten food.“Thinking about what?” she pressed, leaning forward. Her voice dropped. “And while we’re at it, what’s the deal now? With you and Noah. You were so cryptic yes

    Nathan was furious, anger boiling hot in his veins as he burst out of George’s office. Instead of heading back to his own desk, he marched straight for the elevators and pressed the button for Noah’s floor. He needed answers. He needed to confirm where he actually stood in this company. He was tired of being the one Director George could troll, threaten, or treat like a charity case whenever he felt like it.The elevator ride up felt endless. When the doors finally opened, Nathan stepped out quickly and headed down the hallway toward Noah’s office, passing the receptionist with only a quick nod. He tapped his new access card against the reader and walked through the automatic door.Catherine was at her desk, typing away. She looked up when he approached. “Hi… Mr. Grayson didn’t tell me you’d be coming.”Nathan tried to catch his breath, still riding the wave of anger from downstairs. “Oh… but can I see him?”“Okay, I’ll just put a call through.” She picked up the intercom, spoke brief

    CHAPTER 29 Nathan flipped the egg in the pan, wiping sweat from his forehead as he struggled to make dinner in the already suffocating kitchen. When he got home, he had found Anabelle wide awake, refusing to eat any street food or snacks. She had waited patiently for him so she could have a proper homemade meal—something she said she missed because he hadn’t cooked in a long time. “You’re sweating?” Anabelle asked, her voice filled with laughter that sounded more like gentle mockery as she watched him struggle. Nathan, still wearing his office clothes with an apron tied over them, looked up at her and frowned deeply. She sat relaxed at the small table, legs swinging, clearly enjoying the show. “You little brat. I know you’re doing this on purpose.” Anabelle pouted, lips pushed out dramatically. “I just wanted you to cook dinner for me. You know I barely see you before bed these days.” “So you decide to stay awake till this hour?” Nathan asked, keeping his hands busy mashing the po

  • SECOND SIN    CHAPTER 28

    It was evening and closing hours at Dynamic Group. Noah sat in his dark blue BWM parked just outside the main entrance, it's engine off, windows tinted so no one could see inside. He watched the steady stream of workers pouring out of the building—some chatting in small groups, others hurrying toward the bus stop or parking lot. He waited patiently, eyes fixed on the glass doors, heart beating a little faster than he wanted to admit. After several minutes, Nathan finally appeared, walking beside Elle. They moved together through the crowd, talking quietly. Noah remained perfectly still in the driver’s seat, hands resting on the steering wheel as he observed them through the glass. He couldn’t bring himself to do anything else, he just sat there, watching until they walked past his car and disappeared down the sidewalk. Only then did he collapse back against the leather seat. He dug both hands into his hair, gripping tightly, frustration and exhaustion rolling through him in waves.

    After the brief conversation with Elle, Nathan felt a small breath of relief wash over him, even if it was temporary. He decided to push the chaos aside for now and focus on work because it was early Monday morning, and he couldn’t afford to fall behind. Not with the team depending on him, not with

    It was closing time, and Nathan stayed behind as always, determined to finish every last task before leaving. He liked the quiet of the empty office—the way the hum of computers faded, the fluorescent lights dimmed slightly, the absence of chatter letting him focus without distraction. He finalized

    Immediately Nathan rounded the corner, he crouched down fast, his back pressing against the rough brick wall as his chest rose and fell in sharp, uneven bursts. He pressed one hand to his sternum, trying to force his breathing to slow, to make sense of the frantic pounding inside. What had just h

    Nathan stared at the figure filling the doorway, his chest rising and falling too fast. His lungs burned from the sudden collision, from the adrenaline, from everything.“Are you okay?” Noah asked, his voice softer than Nathan expected. Real concern flickered across his face as he noticed how hard
