ERIC’S POV

The moment Tina’s voice cut through the noise, both of us froze.

“What the hell is going on here?” she shouted, rushing toward us. Her heels clicked sharply against the wooden floor as she stopped between me and Frank. Her eyes darted from my bloody lip to his clenched fist, disbelief all over her face. “Seriously? What’s wrong with you two?”

Frank was breathing hard, still glaring at me like he wanted to finish what he started. His hand twitched at his side, knuckles still red from the punch.

“Stay out of this, Tina,” he snapped,

“Oh no,” she shot back. “Don’t you dare tell me to stay out of it. You’re fighting my brother!”

Her words sliced through the tension like glass.

For a second, Frank looked like he forgot that detail—that the guy he just punched wasn’t some random jerk, but her brother. His jaw tightened, but his eyes never left me.

I wiped at the blood on my lip again, this time slower, just to piss him off more. Then I turned to Tina, my voice flat. “Let’s go.”

  • Tempted By The Sweetest Sin   Chapter 44- What The Hell?!

    Sabrina’s POVI hit the floor like a sack of bricks.Hard.A sharp yelp tore out of me as pain exploded through my backside, the sound echoing way louder than it had any right to in my tiny apartment.“Oh my God—don’t look!” I screamed, scrambling uselessly as my limbs tangled and my dignity completely evaporated. “Eric, don’t you fucking look!”“I’m not!” he said instantly, voice sharp with panic. “I swear—I didn’t see anything.”I squeezed my eyes shut, mortified beyond words, my face burning hotter than the shower water had. I twisted onto my side with a groan, my ass throbbing where it had collided with the floor like it had a personal vendetta against me.“Turn around!” I snapped.“I am turned around,” he said quickly. “Hand on my face. Eyes covered. Scout’s honor.”I cracked one eye open.Eric was sitting upright now, his back to me, one large hand plastered dramatically over his face like he was shielding himself from the sun.For half a second, relief washed through me.Then p

  • Tempted By The Sweetest Sin   Chapter 43- We Can Share Your Bed

    Sabrina’s POV“But Eric—”I didn’t get to finish the sentence.He was already stepping inside.I stumbled back instinctively, my body moving before my brain caught up, giving him space as he crossed the threshold like he belonged there. The door swung wider, letting in a gust of cold air before I snapped out of it and reached behind me to push it shut.“It’s just for the night,” he said calmly, like he wasn’t completely bulldozing his way into my house . “It’s not like anything’s going to happen.”I folded my arms across my chest, frustration burning hot and fast. “That’s not the point…you can't just come to my door unannounced and expect me to be okay with it.”The lock clicked loudly when I turned it. The sound echoed in the small apartment, final and heavy.I turned to face him.“Eric,” I said slowly, carefully, like I was talking to a ticking bomb. “You have a mansion. You could probably book out an entire hotel floor without blinking. Why are you here? Why would you come to spend

  • Tempted By The Sweetest Sin   Chapter 42- Can I Stay The Night?

    Sabrina’s POV By the time I got home, my whole body felt like I had been run over by a truck. Every step up the cracked concrete stairs sent a sharp ache through my legs. My shoulders sagged under the weight of the day, my head throbbing, my hands burning beneath the bandages like they were on fire. I smelled like sweat, cheap disinfectant, and fear. Not the kind you shake off easily. The street was quiet in that unsettling way that never felt safe. One flickering streetlight buzzed above me, casting long, warped shadows against the walls. Somewhere down the block, a dog barked, then went silent. I dug my keys out of my bag with clumsy fingers and unlocked my door, slipping inside as fast as I could. I locked it behind me. Twice. Only then did I let out the breath I’d been holding. My cheek throbbed. It burned, hot and sensitive, like someone had pressed a brand against my skin. I raised my hand slowly and touched it, wincing. The slap replayed in my mind—sudden, sharp, humiliat

  • Tempted By The Sweetest Sin   Chapter 41- The Easy Scapegoat

    I raised my fist. Everything inside me screamed to swing. To end it. To finally give him back even a fraction of what he’d given me my whole life. Before my knuckles could connect with bone, my mother’s voice cut through the room—sharp, panicked. “Eric!” I didn’t look at her. “Eric, are you really going to hit your father?” I scoffed, a humorless sound that burned my throat. “So it’s fine that he hit me, isn’t it?” I snapped, eyes never leaving my stepfather’s face. “That’s okay. That’s normal. That’s just another Tuesday in this fucking house.” My raised fist trembled, not from fear—but from how badly I wanted to use it. I lowered my arm slowly and turned my head toward my mother. She stood near the foot of the bed, her hands clasped together like she was praying. Or pretending to. “You should talk to your husband,” I said coldly. “Because the next time he puts his fucking hand on me, he’s going to the ER.” My stepfather took a threatening step toward me. My muscles tight

  • Tempted By The Sweetest Sin   Chapter 40- It's All Your Fault

    “Where is she?”The words ripped out of me the second Diana said it. ‘Something happened to your sister.’My body was already moving before my brain caught up. I was halfway down the hall when she grabbed my arm, her fingers digging into my sleeve.“Eric, wait…your parents…”I shook her off without looking back.I didn’t want to hear about my parents. I didn’t want explanations. I didn’t want excuses.I wanted my sister.Tina’s door was at the end of the hall, half closed. Light spilled out from underneath the door, harsh and white. My heart slammed against my ribs with every step I took. The closer I got, the heavier the air felt, like the house itself was holding its breath.I reached the door.Pushed it open.And froze.My parents stood over the bed.Hovered was the right word. Like vultures. Like judges.Tina lay motionless on the mattress, her skin pale against the dark sheets, dark hair spread around her head like a halo. An oxygen mask covered her nose and mouth, the soft hiss

  • Tempted By The Sweetest Sin   Chapter 39- Get a Grip

    ERIC’S POV I slammed the car door harder than necessary, the sound echoing through the parking lot like a gunshot. “Fuck,” I muttered, gripping the steering wheel so tight my knuckles went white. “What the hell is wrong with me?” I leaned my head back against the seat, staring up at the dark roof of the car, chest rising and falling too fast. My lips throbbed, a dull reminder of the punch I’d taken—and the dozen I’d thrown. My ribs ached where that bastard had clipped me, but I ignored it. Pain was easy. Pain made sense. What didn’t make sense was her. Sabrina. I dragged a hand down my face and laughed under my breath, the sound sharp and humorless in the silence of the car. A fucking laugh. Because if I didn’t laugh, I might do something worse—like go back in there to her. God. When I’d seen that man’s hand connect with her face, something inside me had snapped. Something violent. Like a wild animal breaking free of a cage. I could still see it if I closed my eyes—the sho
