OLIVIA

His voice was low, and also almost careless but every word sank into my chest. He sipped his wine as if we were discussing something random that didn’t matter.

“You don’t like loud people,” he continued. “You flinch at shouting, even when it has nothing to do with you.”

He wasn’t wrong. Loud voices always crawled under my skin and made me uncomfortable. Even laughter, if it came too loud or too sudden, made my shoulders tense before I could stop myself.

My gaze dropped instantly, his stare pressing into my skin. My fingers curled into the fabric of my robe, twisting by my side.

“You bite your bottom lip when you’re about to say something you’ll regret,” he added. “You like the rain, not for the smell or the sound, but because it reminds you of summers at your grandmother’s house.” He leaned in slightly, his voice lower now. “You hate when people walk too close behind you. You always step aside.”

He paused, his brows twitching.

“I noticed everything,” he said,

    DANTE I lifted her gently and laid her on the bed. Her eyes shone as they locked onto mine. “Tell me what you want,” I said softly, “and it’s yours.” “I want you to fuck me,” she breathed. I smiled against her, rolling my tongue over her clit in slow circles. Her head fell back, fingers digging into the sheets. “I will,” I murmured, “but tell me what you want before I do.” She was so sensitive, so alive under my touch. I tugged the waistband of her underwear between my teeth, then let it snap back and she shivered. “I want you to take these off and lick me until I come,” she said, voice trembling. “There we go,” I said. I knelt between her legs, my cock already hard, and pointing straight at her. Her eyes were glued to it, her lips wet. I stroked myself a few times, teasing her, and letting the tension build. Then I pulled her underwear down her legs and tossed it aside. There wasn’t a shy bone in her body as she bent her knees and spread her legs, giving me a

    DANTE I watched as she stepped into my room. I didn’t know why she came or maybe I should have known, but after what my confession did to her, I never expected this. She lingered by the door, her hair tousled and her eyes clouded with uncertainty. For a second, I forgot how to breathe. The thin, silky robe she still wore from dinner clung to her in all the ways that tested my restraint. It did nothing to hide her curves, especially the ones I thought about too damn often. Her scent carried across the room, hitting me like a punch to the nose, and my eyes nearly closed as my head tipped back. I forced myself upright, careful not to startle her, though my body wanted to leap forward and close the distance. My gaze betrayed me as I skimmed from her face, down to the swell of her chest, holding her there. I swallowed hard as her fingers slid to the knot at her waist…slowly tugging it loose. She slipped the robe off slowly, like every second of delay was a punishment she knew I

  • Sinful Pleasures: In Bed With His Best Friend    Not just my body

    OLIVIA My stomach growled, the sound loud in the quiet room. Lying on my back, I pressed a hand against my abdomen with a sigh. I hadn’t eaten all day, not because I didn’t want to, but because everything had spun so far out of my control. And the thought of going downstairs and pretending nothing had happened after the way I lashed out at Dante felt impossible. A knock at the door cut through my thoughts. I froze, my head snapping toward the sound. Dragging myself up from the bed, I ran a hand through my tangled hair and tucked a few strands behind my ear as I crossed the room. When I opened the door, a middle-aged woman stood there smiling at me. She was the housekeeper, I guessed. “Mr. Devereux would like to know if you’ll be joining him for dinner.” The woman’s hands fell neatly to her sides. I bit my lip, my stomach turning as the memory of my outburst at Dante came rushing back. Shaking my head, I murmured, “No… thank you.” Right on cue, my stomach growled, lou

    OLIVIA I pressed the phone to my ear, blinking fast to hold back the tears. I didn’t want to cry, not in front of my sister, and definitely not over the phone. But the moment I heard Dante’s voice, everything I’d been holding in came crashing down. “Where are you, Olivia?” he asked. My throat tightened, and the tears spilled harder, sliding down my cheeks. “I’m with my sister,” I whispered, my voice breaking. “Lilian.” There was a pause. “Are you crying?” He asked, his voice laced with worry. “What happened? Are you hurt? Sick? Tell me.” I shook my head, wiping my face with the back of my hand like it would erase the shame. “No. I… I got evicted.” The words choked out of me. “I have nowhere to go. Lilian’s landlord won’t even let me stay the night.” Silence filled the line again, heavier this time. “Text me the address,” he ordered. “Have you moved your things?” “Yes.” I sniffled, trying to pull myself together. “They’re outside. Eight boxes.” “My driver

    OLIVIA A knot tightened in my stomach, making me queasy. I motioned for her to answer, silently praying this wouldn’t turn into yet another setback. She swiped the screen. “Hello?” “I’m terribly sorry for the confusion,” Hailey said. Her voice was softer now, almost like she was using kindness to mock us. “But I’ve just been informed the unit has already been paid for.” My mind reeled. What the hell? She’d just said it was available and now, it wasn’t? My shoulders slumped, all the air rushing out of me. Lilian’s eyes narrowed. “Paid for? By who? And when? Because a few minutes ago you told us the unit was open. Did this mystery tenant appear out of thin air?” There was a pause on the line, Hailey hesitating. After a short pause, she said, “I apologize for the inconvenience this has caused.” The call ended immediately. I stared at Lilian in disbelief, Hailey’s words echoing in my ears. Why was this happening to me? I shut my eyes tight, fighting the burn of tears.
