Timothy; My Forbidden Temptation Chapter 26 The Awaken
FEW MINUTES EARLIERIt was a long, restless night. Sleep was a luxury Ethan couldn't afford, not with the taste of Timothy’s lips still haunting him and the crushing weight of his mother’s demands echoing in his mind. He needed a distraction—something to quiet the storm in his chest. He reached for his gardening shears, the only comfort he had known in years.Ethan hadn’t always been a fan of the dirt. In fact, he didn’t even know he had it in him until the day Madison had first brought him to the mansion as a boy. During one of his youthful, lonely strolls through the massive estate, he had stumbled across this specific spot. It was a hidden corner, carved out by nature and pulsing with a life the rest of the cold mansion lacked. Even as a child, Ethan knew this place had been loved. It had been cared for by someone who cherished every petal and leaf.Mesmerised by the view, Ethan had vowed right then to keep up the work of whoever had tended it before him. When Madison later suggest
Timothy; My Forbidden Temptation Chapter 25 Sanctuary
The evening was a symphony of flashing lights, the scent of expensive lilies, and the hushed, reverent whispers that only occur in the presence of true masterpieces. If Chloe were to be asked, this wasn't just a date; it was a coronation.Tim Dorian was the architect of the perfect night. Every woman in the room—from the seasoned socialites to the young heiresses watched them with eyes like sharpened daggers. They saw Tim’s poise, his effortless command of the room, and the way his well-built frame seemed to anchor the very space around him. He was every woman’s dream: educated, talented, and possessed of a wealth that was as much about influence as it was about currency.Chloe felt the weight of those gazes, but she didn't shrink. Instead, she leaned into it. She had made up her mind: Tim Dorian would realise tonight that she wasn't just another girl in a pretty dress.As they wandered through the gallery, Tim would pause before a canvas—perhaps a moody, abstract piece of charcoal an

"My name is Harrison," he began, his voice barely a rasp. "Harrison Fabian. I am an attorney... or I was. I served as the personal lawyer for Alexander Hemsworth. The late Alexander Hemsworth."Harrison shifted in his chair, his oversized suit jacket bunching up around his neck as if it were trying to swallow him whole. He looked like a man who hadn't slept in weeks, his skin sallow and his wobbly head trembling with a frantic, internal vibration.Something clicked in Olivia’s mind, a cold spark of recognition. She leaned back, her eyes narrowing until they were thin slivers of ice. "Wait. Alexander Hemsworth? The billionaire who died recently? The 'Heart Attack' case that the tabloids couldn't stop printing for a month?"Harrison nodded, his double chin quivering. "The same."Olivia gave a sharp, dismissive shrug, her hands gripping the edge of her mahogany desk. "Well, that’s a tragedy for the financial papers, Mr Fabian. But what does a dead billionaire have to do with me? Why are

Timothy; My Forbidden Temptation Chapter 23 The Catalyst
The Dorian residence at 11:00 PM was a sanctuary of amber light and velvet silence. Outside, the Nashville skyline glittered like fallen diamonds, but inside the terrace of the master suite, the world was reduced to the soft clink of a china cup and the rhythmic, rhythmic purr of Fester.Olivia Dorian sat draped in a midnight-blue silk nightgown, the fabric cool against her skin as the evening breeze stirred the gossamer curtains. Fester, a magnificent creature with fur like polished onyx, rubbed his head against her ankles, providing a steady, comforting warmth. To the outside world, Olivia was a titan of industry—cold, precise, and untouchable. But here, in the quiet hours, she was simply a woman waiting.She never went to bed until the heavy iron gates hummed open. She never slept until she heard the distinct, confident stride of Timothy ascending the stairs, or felt the subtle shift in the air that signalled he was home. He protested, of course—claiming he was a grown man who didn
Timothy; My Forbidden Temptation Chapter 22 Ominiously Brewing
The air in Madison’s private courtyard was usually heavy with the scent of blooming night jasmine and the quiet hum of the fountain, but for Ethan, the atmosphere was suffocating.He kissed me. He fucking kissed me! And I liked it! Oh God! What’s happening to me?The thoughts were a frantic, looping track in his mind. He was sitting across from his mother in her private villa within the mansion, a place of glass and white leather that usually felt like a sanctuary. Now, it felt like an interrogation room. Ethan couldn't think straight. His lips still felt branded, the phantom pressure of Timothy’s mouth making his skin hum with a traitorous heat."Ethan Wellman! Are you even listening?"Ethan shook his head sharply, trying to physically rattle the memory of Tim out of his skull. He turned to his mother, forcing himself to meet her gaze. Madison was watching him with an intense, puzzled look—those sharp eyes scanning him like a predator looking for a wound. The longer she stared, the m
