YULIA

I changed outfits three times before finally settling on a royal blue fitted top and jeans, which was honestly ridiculous. It was just a casual get-together at Damon’s house. Not a date.

Still, my stomach wouldn’t stop flipping nervously every few seconds.

Mostly because ever since Kendrick kissed me, everything between us had changed. The air felt heavier now. Every glance lasted too long. Every touch lingered, and I liked it way too much.

I stared at myself in the mirror one last time b

  • The Wrong Kind Of Love   CHAPTER 27: Lines In The Dark

    UNKNOWN POVShe gets away with everything. She gets to have everything.That’s what I kept coming back to. Not just him. Not what he does for her or how he looks at her or the way his whole body shifts when she’s in the room. All of that burns, yes. But what really ate at me was her. Just her. The way she moved through the world was so carefree and unbothered.I’d watched her go to school and settle on the first day, and go to class and back to her apartment and live this little life she’s built for herself, and all I can think is how unfair it is.How does she get to have him, and I don’t? How does she get to be loved, and I don’t?How she gets to walk into rooms full of people who care about her while I sit in the dark and count the ways she’s stolen from me.And she doesn’t even know I exist. Not really. Not in the way that matters. She has no idea that someone is keeping score. That every good thing that happens to her is a debt she owes me. That every smile on her face is borrow

  • The Wrong Kind Of Love   CHAPTER 26: The Only Thing on My Mind

    KENDRICK“Our cybersecurity division is up twelve percent from last quarter, and we're currently negotiating four major contracts, including one with a government agency,” Daniel, my Chief Operations Officer, informed the room.Quarterly review meetings weren't exactly my favorite way to spend a morning, but they were necessary. Around the long conference table sat my executive team, department directors, legal advisors, and senior managers—the people responsible for keeping Fernsby Technologies operating at the level I'd built it to.As I listened, my gaze drifted briefly across the room. A lot had changed since the early days. Fernsby Technologies had started as a small cybersecurity consultancy with a handful of clients and a rented office space. Back then, I handled almost everything myself—security audits, penetration testing, client meetings, and endless nights writing code.Now, things were different. Over the years, the company has expanded into software development, cloud sec

  • The Wrong Kind Of Love   CHAPTER 25: The Distance Between Us

    YULIAMoving day felt strange, not because I was going back to university, but because I was leaving my father’s house for school. Again.The last few weeks had become a rhythm I never expected to settle into so easily. Living with Kendrick and then coming home to familiar voices in the background had somehow become normal. Small moments that quietly stitched themselves into my routine without permission.Now I stood in my room, surrounded by packed suitcases, watching reality settle in slowly. School was reopening, and as always, life was moving forward.A knock sounded against my bedroom door.“Come in!” I called out, glancing toward the door as I smoothed down the last of my packed suitcase.The door opened, and my breath caught.Kendrick stepped inside, dressed in a charcoal suit, looking unfairly attractive for someone who had been awake since six.I wasn’t expecting him to come here today. I blinked once. Then twice. “What are you doing here?”He looked entirely too calm for som

  • The Wrong Kind Of Love   CHAPTER 24: Our Luck Won't Last

    YULIA“Kendrick—” I began to speak, but he placed a finger over my lips, silencing me immediately.“Shhh,” he whispered, his face still buried against my neck, his breath warm and maddening.My heart stuttered. Oh my God. Daphne was right behind the door.“Yulia, are you okay?” she called again, her voice closer now. Too close.My throat went dry. I glanced toward the door like it might save me.“Answer her,” Kendrick whispered, like this was normal. Like we weren’t seconds away from disaster.“I… ye—yeah, Miss Daphne, I’m coming,” I called out quickly, my voice slightly unsteady despite my effort to sound normal.Kendrick smirked like the situation amused him, like we weren’t standing on the edge of getting caught. He finally shifted off me and lay back on the bed as if there wasn’t danger outside about to close in on our affair.I gawked at him with a look: Are you serious?“Go before she enters, Peaches. The door isn’t locked.”“Shit!” I muttered under my breath.I scrambled off th

  • The Wrong Kind Of Love   CHAPTER 23: The Wrong Time

    KENDRICK Every head at the table turned toward Yulia. I hated that question the moment Mother asked it. Yulia blinked once, clearly caught off guard. She placed her fork down as she searched for an answer, and accidentally, the glass beside her tipped. Champagne splashed across the tablecloth and onto the front of her dress. “Shit,” she muttered. She stood so quickly her chair scraped against the ground. “Excuse me.” Before anyone could say anything, she disappeared toward the house. The table fell silent. Mother looked startled. Natalie's smile faded slightly. I exhaled slowly and set my cutlery down. “That question wasn't necessary, Mother.” She frowned, looking confused. “I was only making conversation.” “You put her on the spot,” I replied evenly. “She doesn’t even know Natalie like that.” My mother's expression softened immediately. “Oh…” For a moment, guilt crossed her face. “I didn't mean to.” “I know.” I pushed back my chair and stood. “I’ll be back.” Without waiting

  • The Wrong Kind Of Love   CHAPTER 22: All Eyes On Me

    YULIAThe celebration has arrived. Our home felt alive with catering staff moving through the backyard carrying trays, floral arrangements, and last-minute decorations while voices drifted from nearly every room. Daphne's celebration wasn't scheduled to begin for another hour, but somehow everyone already seemed busy.I stood in front of the mirror in my bedroom, staring at my reflection. The emerald-green dress hugged my figure perfectly. Sophie had practically forced me to buy it weeks ago, claiming every woman needed one dress capable of making men forget their own names.At the time, I'd laughed. Now I wasn't so sure. A knock sounded against the door before it opened. Sophie stepped inside first, then Adeline followed behind her.Both immediately froze at the door.“Ooooo…” Sophie exclaimed, placing a hand over her heart.“Oh, wow!” Adeline blinked twice.“Okay, everyone!” I chuckled and turned, seeing them still in awe. “What?”“You look illegal,” Adeline murmured.I rolled my ey

  • The Wrong Kind Of Love   CHAPTER 21: The Look He Couldn't Hide

    YULIAKendrick entangled his large hands in my hair and groaned sleepily as I bobbed my head up and down on his dick.“Fuck, if I knew you would start waking me up like this, I would have made us sleep on the same bed together sooner.” My stomach tightened. I realized earlier that I loved hearing h

  • The Wrong Kind Of Love   CHAPTER 20: The Eyes in the Shadows

    KENDRICKI didn't tell Yulia about the photographs. Maybe I should have, but when I looked at her last night, smiling and talking on the phone with Sophie and Adeline, I couldn't bring myself to do it.She'd spent the last few weeks happy. Really happy. I wasn't about to be the one who took that aw

  • The Wrong Kind Of Love   CHAPTER 19: Everything Would Fall Apart

    YULIA“I swear, if Professor Reynolds gives us another twenty-page assignment before the semester even starts, I'm dropping out.”Adeline's dramatic sigh echoed through my phone, making me laugh. “You say that every semester,” I pointed out.“And one day I'll mean it.”“You won't.”Sophie laughed f

  • The Wrong Kind Of Love   CHAPTER 17: The Truth In My Heart

    YULIAThe question hung in the air. My father frowned slightly. “What's taking you so long to answer?”I forced a small laugh. “Nothing… I was just surprised.”“Why?” he asked.I set my fork down carefully. “Because… I've gotten used to staying at Kendrick's place.” My father raised a brow. “You
