MasukI never meant to betray my sister. But from the moment Adrian's dark, smoldering gaze met mine, he became my secret addiction. His touch sets me on fire, his possessiveness borders on obsession. And despite him being my sister's boyfriend, I'm powerless to stop. Then there's Alexander. The charming guy I met on campus. He's everything Adrian isn't. He's sweet, kind, safe, and he makes no secret of how much he wants me. With one boy, I'm breaking all the rules. With the other, I'm denying all my desires. But now I'm trapped between one love I can't have and another love I can't resist.
Lihat lebih banyakI never thought I’d end up hiding inside Alexander’s house. But that’s exactly what it had become for me. The footage Sloane released had spread like wildfire, and even though Alexander had scrambled immediately to pull every string he could to erase it from the campus blog, the damage was done. But Alexander wasn’t letting me fight this alone. He had gathered everything. Sever logs, hidden IP traces, timestamps. I sat on the edge of his couch, hugging my knees while he worked at his multiple monitors. His face was illuminated by the cold blue light. “She didn’t even bother to mask her trail,” he muttered, pulling up another window. “That’s arrogance for you. She thought no one would touch her. She must’ve forgotten who I am.” “Can we really prove it’s her?” Alexander swiveled in his chair, meeting my eyes. “Kim... we already did. Look.” He turned the screen toward me. A string of numbers and letters I didn’t understand glared back at me. “That’s her login. Her device. The files w
I walked past Sloane as I entered the living room. My hands tightened at my sides. “Sloane,” I said again. “What are you doing here? How do you even know where she lives? Why are you here, Sloane?” She flinched slightly, her hand brushing over her arm. “Kim, it’s not that deep—” “Not that deep?” I cut her off, my voice pitching louder. “You’re in my sister's apartment. And I don’t even know you were close enough to her to be here.” My chest rose and fell in shaky bursts. “When exactly did that happen, huh? When did you get close to her behind my back?” Her eyes flicked away, and she let out a nervous laugh. “It’s not... Look, it’s complicated.” “Complicated?” I repeated, stepping closer. “How long have you two been—whatever this is? Friends? How long have you been going behind my back?” She sighed dramatically, like I was exhausting her. “Kim, don’t make this bigger than it is—” “Bigger than it is?” My throat burned. “This is my sister. And none of this makes sense! You kept thi
Alexander was on me instantly. His arm swept around my shoulders, pulling me tightly against him. “Don’t look at it. Don’t, please.” “My sister...” The words barely broke past my lips. “Everyone... the whole school.” Alexander pressed my face into his chest, his palm shielding my head. “Don’t look,” he repeated. Across from us, Adrian still hadn’t moved. His eyes were locked on this phone. “Adrian,” Alexander barked, but there was no response. Adrian’s lips moved, muttering curses under his breath, but he didn’t look up. He was transfixed, as though the footage had him nailed to the couch. I was trembling, tears streaming freely down my face as I clung to Alexander’s shirt. Alexander shifted, keeping me shielded as he bent to pick my phone up from the floor with his free hand. He locked it without glancing at the screen and shoved it into his pocket. “We’re leaving,” Alexander said flatly as he turned to Adrian. Adrian didn’t move. His gaze was still glued to his phone screen,
I blinked, the room spinning slightly. “What did you say?” Adrian nodded. “Genevieve is the anonymous mailer. That’s what we were fighting about today in the lot.” He exhaled harshly, dragging a hand through his hair. “She found out. And then she—” His voice faltered. “She broke up with me.” I stood there, frozen, every nerve in my body ringing with shock. I slowly went back to Alexander and sat down beside him. Adrian sank into the couch opposite us, his hands dragging down his face. He looked tired. He leaned back, staring at the ceiling, then exhaled sharply. “Fine,” he finally said. “I won’t lie about it. Yes, the mail came from my house. From my network and probably from my own computer.” My heart lurched, and I gripped the edge of the couch where Alexander and I sat, my nails digging into the fabric. But before I could form words, Adrian tilted his head back toward me, his expression almost pleading. “But it wasn’t me,” he continued, voice breaking through my panic. “Believ
I couldn’t take it anymore, everything felt far away as I sat on the low bench under a jacaranda tree near the science wing, hugging my knees. My head ached from being under the sun for too long. With a heavy sigh, I pulled out my phone and dialed the only person I knew would come without asking q
I blinked against the sudden light as I and Sloane stepped out of the examination hall. My lungs expanded with a shaky inhale. Sloane walked beside me, clutching her paper like it had personally offended her. “I need a massage,” she grumbled. I let out a breathy laugh. “Me too.” We wandered to
I walked into the room exhausted. Closing the door behind me with a soft sigh. Sloane turned from her desk, her eyes lighting up the second she saw me. “Kim!” she gasped, half standing. “Wait—how are you already here? I thought you were walking!” I blinked at her, then gave a small laugh as I to
The second the exam papers were collected and the invigilators dismissed the class, I stood up so fast my chair nearly scraped into the person behind me. My head was pounding not from the midterm, but because Alexander, of all people, hadn’t so much as texted me yesterday, after what happened at th
