SERA

If you asked anyone from the outside looking in, they’d say I had it all.

A handsome, successful fiancé. A dream wedding being planned. A Pinterest-perfect life that looked glossy from every angle.

And today, Jared was in full husband-mode.

“I booked the tasting at that farm-to-table spot you liked,” he said, eyes scanning the spreadsheet on his tablet. “And I confirmed the floral mock-ups for next week. Oh, check your inbox, I shared the Google Doc.”

I forced a smile, curled up beside him on the couch, champagne in hand.

“Wow, babe. You’ve turned into a wedding planner.”

“I just want everything to be perfect,” He grinned, proud. “For you.”

For a moment, I let that settle.

He was perfect. On paper. In real life, even. Jared had always been everything I thought I needed; kind, steady, loyal. The kind of man you built a life with.

Not the kind you burned for.

And yet…

I nodded, leaning over to kiss him lightly on the cheek.

“Thank you. It means a lot.”

He beamed and went right b

  • The Den of Desires (Erotica Short Stories)   FALLING AGAIN

    SERA“Fuck,” I choked out, my mouth falling open as he filled me to the hilt and stayed there.His arms caged me in, forearms braced on either side of my head, his chest hovering just above mine. He didn’t move. Not at first. He just looked at me, eyes dark and feral, like he was savoring the moment I unraveled underneath him.“Feel that?” he whispered hoarsely. “How fucking tight you get for me? How perfect you are around my cock?”“Knox…” I whimpered, clutching at his biceps. He pulled out almost all the way, painfully slow, then pushed back in just as slowly, grinding his hips against mine at the end, dragging a strangled moan from deep inside my throat.He was torturing me.He’d never taken me this slow before.Never been this precise.This devastating.Every inch of his thrust was a calculated burn, every drag a taunt, every snap of his hips a quiet, punishing worship.“Oh my God…” I gasped, legs locking around his waist, trying to pull him deeper, harder.But he didn’t let me

  • The Den of Desires (Erotica Short Stories)   HEALING

    SERAIt wasn’t rushed.It wasn’t desperate.It was deliberate.Intimate.Starving.His mouth moved against mine like he was trying to re-memorize me, like he had all the time in the world and still didn’t want to waste a single second.Every brush of his lips, every flick of his tongue, was slow and intentional, like he wanted me to feel every second of it. Like he wanted to remind me what I’d been missing.His hand cupped the back of my neck, firm and possessive, guiding me deeper into him.I should’ve pulled away. I should have. But when his tongue swept gently against mine, teasing, tasting, coaxing, and my knees buckled.I clutched at his shirt, fisting the soft fabric over his chest like I could anchor myself to him, like he was the only solid thing left in my crumbling world.And when he groaned, that deep, low sound that rumbled from his chest and into mine, I felt it echo in places that had been hollow for weeks.The kiss shifted.It grew hotter. Hungrier. Rougher.His hand sl

  • The Den of Desires (Erotica Short Stories)   AFTERMATH

    SERAI sat cross-legged on the couch, the half-melted tub of vanilla and caramel swirl ice cream nestled in my lap.The room was a mess. Dishes in the sink, laundry in a heap by the hallway, and my sketchpads scattered on the floor like forgotten promises.I hadn’t been to work in days. Couldn’t even imagine showing my face there. Not with the headlines still making rounds.SERA MCFADDEN AND JARED REEVES ESTRANGED. WHO IS THE FRAUD?Classy.I dipped the spoon into the tub again and took another bite. Cold. Sweet. Numbing. Just what I needed.When the knock came, I didn’t move at first. Part of me hoped they… whoever they were would just go away. But then it came again, soft, and patient. I sighed, pulled the blanket off my legs, and dragged myself to the door.I opened it and blinked.“Lana?”She didn’t wait for an invitation. She stepped in like she always did, arms full of something, takeout, maybe, and wrapped me in a tight hug.“I brought Chinese,” she said softly. “Figured you h

    SERATime didn’t slow down. It snapped.Knox pulled out of me fast, the movement rough and final. I gasped at the sudden emptiness, staggering forward, my hands catching the edge of the vanity. My dress clung to my waist, damp and wrinkled, and I didn’t even have the strength to pull it down.Everything crashed at once, the weight of my choices from the moment I met Knox, the heat of guilt, and the chill of exposure.I looked at Jared, watching as he looked like his heart had just been ripped right out of his shirt. And rightfully so.“Jared-” I breathed, my voice cracking. “Please- just let me explain—”But he didn’t wait.He stormed across the room in three strides, a blur of black and white and fury. His fist came out of nowhere, connecting with Knox’s face in a brutal, sickening crack.Knox’s head snapped to the side.He stumbled but didn’t fall.Then he lunged.He punched Jared hard in the stomach, then swung again, landing another blow on his brother’s jaw. I screamed, rushing

  • The Den of Desires (Erotica Short Stories)   THE BREAKING POINT

    SERAI stood there, breathless, heart hammering in my ears like war drums. My lips still tingled from his kiss. My thighs clenched around his fingers, still throbbing from the pressure he had on my clit.Outside that door, everything was waiting for me, my vows, my future, and my husband.But inside this room, inside this moment… there was only him.Knox.The man I wasn’t supposed to want. The man I couldn’t stop wanting.I knew what I was supposed to do. What a good woman would do. What a loyal bride should do.I should’ve stepped away. Told him it was over. Pushed him out the door and gathered what was left of my dignity like scattered rose petals.But I didn’t move.I looked at him, really looked at him. The sharp lines of his jaw, the fire in his eyes, the promise of destruction in the curve of his smirk. His body was tense, waiting, watching me, chest rising with slow, deliberate breaths like he was restraining himself.But I didn’t want him to restrain himself.I wanted him to
