MasukSerene’s heart raced as she stood in Nicholas’s dimly lit study, the scent of leather and whiskey heavy in the air. She’d been dusting the bookshelves when he entered, his presence filling the room like a storm. Now, he stood inches away, his black suit hugging his broad shoulders, his dark mullet framing a gaze that burned with intent. “You missed a spot,” he murmured, his voice a low growl, pointing to a shelf she’d already cleaned. Her cheeks flushed as she turned, the hem of her maid uniform riding up her thighs. “I-I’ll get it, Mr. Volkov,” she stammered, reaching up, but his hand caught her wrist, firm yet gentle. “No,” he said, stepping closer, his breath warm against her ear. “Let me show you.” His fingers slid down her arm, leaving a trail of heat, before guiding her hand to the shelf. His chest pressed against her back, and she gasped at the hardness of his body, the evidence of his arousal unmistakable. “You’re trembling, little maid,” he whispered, his lips brushing her neck, sending shivers down her spine. “Do I scare you… or do I excite you?” Her breath hitched as his free hand trailed up her thigh, slipping beneath the lace of her uniform. “Mr. Volkov…” she whimpered, but her protest melted into a moan as his fingers found her, teasing her through the thin fabric of her panties. “ Nicholas,” he corrected, his voice rough with desire, his touch growing bolder, circling her most sensitive spot until her knees buckled. “Say it,” he demanded, nipping her earlobe. “N-Nicholas,” she gasped, her body arching into him, surrendering to the fire he’d ignited. In that moment, the billionaire and his naive maid were bound by a hunger neither could deny.
Lihat lebih banyak...Serene's POVI was laying, curled on the couch, the soft throw blanket pulled up to my chin and the television flickered with some random late night show I wasn’t even watching. It was night- proper night, the kind that made everything feel smaller and heavier. The clock on the wall read 10:28 p.m. I sighed, long and tired, shifting under the blanket.Nicholas was in his office. Again. He’d kissed my forehead earlier and murmured something about “important work” before disappearing behind the door. I tried to focus on the screen, tried to let the mindless chatter of the show pull me under, but my mind kept circling back to him. To us. And worse- to Julian. The thought of him, of everything he’d already tried to ruin, gnawed at the edges of my heart like a persistent little animal. I couldn’t shake it.I couldn’t stay here any longer. What if Nicholas found out and hated me- what if this all was a dream and I would wake up to all that misery again. I pushed the blanket off an
...Serene’s POV The car ride back from the estate had been a blur of rain-slicked streets and Nicholas’s hand on my thigh, his fingers tracing lazy circles that kept me on edge the entire way. By the time we stepped into the penthouse, my body was a live wire every nerve humming, every inch of skin hypersensitive. The butt plug had been removed earlier in the guest room, but the phantom stretch lingered, making me ache in ways I couldn’t ignore. Nicholas had been quiet, but his eyes burned with that dark intensity that always meant one thing, he wasn’t done with me yet.We barely made it to the living room before he pulled me onto his lap on the oversized leather couch. The city skyline glittered beyond the floor-to-ceiling windows, but I couldn’t focus on anything but him. His shirt was half-unbuttoned, revealing the hard planes of his chest, and his sweatpants did nothing to hide how ready he was. I straddled him instinctively, my knees sinking into the cushions on either s
...Serene’s POV I was still curled on the couch when Nicholas walked in, the morning light catching the hard lines of his face. My eyes were puffy from crying all night, throat raw, heart a frantic mess. Julian’s threat echoed in my skull like a ticking bomb. I had to tell him. Now. Before everything exploded.He stopped mid-step when he saw me.“Serene.” His voice dropped, instantly alert. “What happened?”The concern in his eyes cracked me open. Tears welled again before I could stop them.He crossed the room in three strides, dropping to his knees in front of me, hands cupping my face. “Baby, talk to me. Who hurt you?”I shook my head, sobs hitching. “I—I need to tell you something. Something bad. And I’m so scared you’ll hate me.”His thumbs brushed my tears away. “Never. Whatever it is, we’ll fix it. Just breathe.”I tried. God, I tried. But the words stuck in my throat like glass.He pulled me gently into his lap, settling us both on the couch, my legs over his thighs, arms
...Serene’s POV The night wrapped around the penthouse like a heavy blanket, the city lights twinkling far below like distant stars I could never reach. I sat on the edge of the massive bed, knees drawn to my chest, the silk sheets cool against my bare legs. Nicholas was in the shower, I could hear the water running, a steady rhythm that should have been soothing but only amplified the storm in my head. The room was dimly lit by a single lamp on the nightstand, casting long shadows that danced across the walls like ghosts of my past mistakes.I stared at my hands, twisting the black diamond ring on my finger. It felt heavier tonight, a constant reminder of the tangled web I’d woven myself into. How had I ended up here? From a desperate girl signing a contract to pay off her father’s debts, to… this. Nicholas’s fiancée. His obsession. His everything. But it was all built on lies.Julian.The name alone sent a chill down my spine. He’d been the one to orchestrate it all offerin
