All Chapters of The CEO'S Forbidden Secret: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

BRYAN'S POV"I'm sorry, Bryan. I can't be a man's second option, I just can't," she muttered, pulling her hands from mine. Without another word, she walked into the bathroom and shut the door behind her. The sound of her muffled sobs reached me through the walls, and it felt like a dagger twisting in my chest.I hated myself for being the source of her pain. I left the room, giving her the space she clearly needed.After last night, I know exactly what I want from her it's not just about having her in my bed. She doesn't even realize how much she controls my emotions. She's like a magnet, drawing me in, even when I know I should keep my distance.But after our outburst and the heated argument that followed, I don't know where we stand anymore. I want to move on from the painful memories of Mia, but they haunt me, creeping into my thoughts at the worst times those moments we shared, the way we made love, the sweetness of our time together. I don't want to hurt Laura, but I can't let

LAURA'S POVMy heart pounded in my chest as he squeezed my ass cheek sweetly and pulled me close."Bryan, I'm sleepy," I said, breaking the kiss."Okay, you go to the room. I'll be there shortly," he said, and I looked at him amusedly."Why?" I asked, and he sucked on his bottom lip as he chuckled."Trust me, sweetness," he said, and my heart warmed.If anything was stopping me from falling for Bryan, it has vanished into thin air because this man is irresistible. His sweet words and caring side can sweep any woman off her feet."I will be in the room," I announced and stared at him curiously.What is he up to? Or was he trying to... My thoughts trailed off, and my cheeks heated up immediately.Is he trying to help himself after what happened between us just now? The thought of Bryan pleasuring himself had me feeling naughty.I got into his room and lay down on the bed to sleep. Some minutes later, I felt him on the bed as he pulled me into his embrace. A smile graced my lips."Goodni

LAURA'S POVThe next morning, I woke up to a thank you note from Bryan. He had left early for something important but mentioned that I should prepare for a date that evening.As the evening approached, I took a shower, changed, and walked back into our room, only to find Bryan staring at me with a deep frown."What are you wearing?" he asked, his voice laced with disapproval."A dress," I replied, confused, as I turned to check my outfit in the mirror. It was a gorgeous red dress with strings at the back. The dress hugged me in all the right places and ended just before my knees, with a slit at the back."Go and change the dress," he said firmly as jealousy spark on his blue eyes, and my frown deepened."What?" I asked, getting pissed off."Am I speaking gibberish? I said go in there and change. We're not going out with you dressed like that," he repeated, his tone leaving no room for argument."But what's wrong with what I'm wearing?" I asked, with frustration in my voice."Everythin

BRYAN'S POV"You're so innocent sometimes that I'm scared I'd break you when you eventually see that side of me," I said while playing with her hair. She looked into my eyes shyly."You're such a tease, Bryan," she replied, and I stepped out of the tub."I know you're not ready for anything called s*x, so let's get out of the water because I need to take another shower," I said, and she raised her eyebrows."Again? But didn't we just bathe together?" she asked in confusion as she tied her hair in a bun.I stared at her milky skin, watching the drops of water trail from her neck into her cleavage."Baby, I need a cold shower because right now I'm so hard," I admitted, and her face flushed immediately."I'm sleepy," she mumbled, escaping from the bathroom as I laughed.I bit my lower lip as my mind drifted back to how soft she was, her gentle cries and moans whenever we made out. I remembered that time in New York when I buried my fingers in her warmth.I groaned as the cold water splas

BRYAN'S POV"That's not even a question. I love you and trust me, right now all I want to do is make sweet love to you, but..." I trailed off, and she pulled me into a kiss."I want it. I don't care," she said, and I kissed her back hungrily as I gripped her ass, trailing kisses down her chest.My lips reached the pink buds of her breasts, and as I took them into my mouth, she moaned out. I sucked on them as her fingers ran down my back, and then I captured her lips in a sweet kiss.My fingers trailed down, checking if she was wet enough. I was nervous because this was the first time I would be having s*x with a virgin, not just any virgin, but the woman I’m crazy about, the woman who makes me happy."Tell me if it hurts, okay? I promise I’ll stop," I whispered, and she nodded."Open your eyes, watch me take you," I instructed, as I began to penetrate her slowly."Ahh... ahh," she cried softly.I paused, kissing her lips to distract her. I wasn’t even halfway in yet, and we were alrea
