"What the hell was that all about?" Chloe demanded, staring fiercely at Damian outside the cafeteria. The rain tapered into a drizzle as the clouds parted to unveil an azure sky in the backdrop of sunshine.

She had left the lunch abruptly, grabbing her fleece jacket and muttering a hasty excuse, only to be followed by the relentless blond Casanova.

Damian cut to the chase, his voice strong and unwavering. "Here's the truth. You're attracted to me, but you're afraid to admit it. And I... I'm drawn to you."

"We're not together. End of story." Chloe stood her ground, her face tinged with irritation.

"We can change that," Damian suggested, his grin playful yet predatory.

"Stop smirking. I'm not another one of your flings."

"Flings?" His smile faded. "What are you getting at?"

"Don't play ignorant. I won't be another notch on your bedpost. You're known for playing the field, Damian."

His expression darkened, the playful smirk dissolving into a furrow of anger. "I don't know what rumors you

    Damian’s smile dimmed as he pondered Chloe’s question. The flickering candlelight played across his face, deepening his thoughtful eyes.“I guess you could say I had a mentor,” he admitted.“A mentor?” she echoed, drawing closer.“Yeah.” Damian paused, his gaze growing distant. “Her name is Isabella. She was a dominatrix. God, she was the most captivating woman I’d ever met, and I was hooked. Learned a few tricks from her and some of the women here. Valentina, whom you met earlier tonight.”“Ooh. Spicy. Do you still see Isabella?” Chloe questioned. “Where is she now?”“Nah, I stopped seeing her after she left. She runs her own business these days.”“Did you love her?”“No. We never...” He cleared his throat, then spoke. “She showed me how to give and get pleasure through foreplay. She taught me about trust and surrender, as well as dominance and submission without us having intercourse.”Chloe’s eyes widened. A sudden realization dawned on her. “Wait, does that mean—”He nodded, eyes

    Chloe’s eyes locked onto Damian with an intense curiosity, narrowing as she leaned in close. Her fingers trailed gently down Damian’s arm, coaxing him to unveil his soul to her.“You’re a paradox. You’re quiet and shy, yet your presence commands attention when you enter a room—it’s like watching an enigma unfold. But something’s shadowing you. A dark, forceful side. Tell me.” Her voice dropped to a whisper. “Who are you, beneath it all?”He drew in a deep breath. “You want to know everything?”“Yes,” she responded, her heart pounding fast. “Everything.”Damian rose from the bed, a warm smile playing on his lips, and extended his hand. “We’ll shower first, and I’ll tell you later. Come.”She placed her hand in his, following him to the luxurious shower. The space was refreshing, with smooth stone walls and lush greenery hanging overhead, reminiscent of the Amazon rainforest.Warm water cascaded over the lovers like tropical rain. Chloe closed her eyes, inhaling the soap-scented air as

    Damian unfastened the leash, stepping back as Chloe whimpered at the loss of contact. The cool air kissed her bare skin, amplifying her sense of loss. A wicked grin curled at the corner of his mouth when he leaned closer. “Beg for it, baby girl.”“Spank me, Daddy,” she pleaded.“You are my little brat, aren’t you? You forgot to say ‘please.’“ Damian’s steely stare frightened and thrilled her simultaneously.“Please?” She bit her lower lip, twirling a lock of her hair.He picked up a black leather paddle, its handle adorned with pink silk and the words “Daddy’s Brat” etched into it. He positioned Chloe across his lap. “Are you ready?”“Yes. Punish me, please,” she begged, her voice ripe with anticipation.He cupped her bare ass, kneading once before the paddle cracked against her skin—heat and sting colliding. “I’m going to break you,” he breathed, lips grazing her ear, “and put you back together. Piece by piece. Mine.”Her breath hitched. “Then do it.”A slow, dark smile curved his mo

    The Church was a hedonist’s playground—burlesque dancers moving like silk in water, holding their audience in a trance. The place dripped with the decadence of a modern harem, steeped in rich perfume and velvet-lit luxury. A statuesque blonde glided past with a tray of cocktails, flashing Damian a knowing smile. Chloe’s long winter coat felt like armor in a sea of bare skin. Damian moved as if he were born to this decadence, the flirtatious stares sliding over him like second nature. They crossed into a room steeped in old-world opulence: satin drapes, velvet cushions, every inch built to indulge excess. “Hey, Dami, long time no see,” cooed an attractive woman with jet-black hair and striking blue eyes adorned in nipple tassels and a minuscule, glittering thong. Her breasts bounced as she embraced Damian, planting a kiss on his cheek. He returned a faint smile, gently pushing her away. “Good to see you too, Valentina.” “Dami?” Chloe whispered, her eyebrow arched. He whispered bac

    ThenThe college semester had ended with a blur of late-night study sessions and challenging exams. Chloe and Damian hit the bowling alley after their finals, exchanging laughs and competitive banter as they celebrated.“How did you do?” he asked, gazing at her as he laced up his bowling shoes.Chloe’s grin stretched wide, her excitement radiating. “I passed every subject, including financial management,” she beamed. “I got the top score on the exam. Thanks for all your help—I couldn’t have done it without you.”He chuckled. “Nah, you’d have done well. You’re brilliant.”She elbowed him as they settled into their game. “We’ll see who’s brilliant at bowling, then.”Damian moved fast as he approached the lane, sending the ball down with precise power. Chloe’s heart fluttered as she watched him score a perfect strike. Damn, was there anything he wasn’t good at?“You’re going down, Mister Perfect Score,” she teased, picking up her bowling ball.“Is that so, Miss Top of the Class?” he reto
