Aaron accompanied the officer to the door, aware that he would still see him many times. Spencer suspected Aaron, but he had no evidence, and just that suspicion was enough to make Granger lose many nights of sleep."The next meeting will be at my department," Spencer assured, once he reached the double doors of the room."I promise to bring flowers next time."The inspector left the office, and Aaron closed his door shortly after. He turned to his lawyer, unhappy with the outcome of that conversation. Spencer seemed to be more astute, less intimidatable. It was as if some light was guiding his way, and for the first time, the officer was certain that he would achieve what he had been seeking for so long."I can't say I understood," Carter confessed."He came to give me a message.""The thousandth message in five years?"Aaron walked back to his desk again, still pondering what that conversation meant. Perhaps Spencer was bluffing very well. But what if it wasn't just a bluff?"This

The woman lifted her eyes to the tall man beside her, realizing that his gaze was even more dangerous than his scent. It felt as if he pierced through her, invading and exploring without any permission. Lara warmed under the blue of those wicked eyes, capable of dragging her to hell or soaring to heaven. "Aaron..." she gasped, unable to finish a simple sentence."Yes," he replied, skeptical."There are a few things I would like to say," Lara wiped her sweaty hands on her dress, "A few things I said yesterday and regret.""I can't imagine what," Aaron raised an eyebrow, and Lara could not tell if he was in a bad mood.She did not think twice before advancing toward him. The man beside her meant danger and, at the same time, was an impossible magnet to break away from.She approached and pressed the red dress against his designer suit. The man wasn't surprised, and he would not back down. He would love to see how far Lara would go. He would love to see that she was crazy about him.

"How inflated does your ego need to be to assume Greyson means nothing to me?"Despite knowing that Lara was attracted to him, Aaron also knew she was too confident a woman to submit herself. The truth was, the only thing that would make the beautiful woman surrender would be her own will."Very," was finally his response.Lara felt her face burning with a mix of anger and remorse. Those definitely were not the words she intended to hear. Maybe something gentle, or an intense tease. She was prepared for many things, but not for Granger's sarcastic side."Alright. I said what I wanted, now, if you will excuse me, I need to go. Have a good night, Granger," Lara did not wait for a response, nor did she give him time for a reaction.She simply started walking out of the apartment, irritated by his responses. Her thoughts scolded her for succumbing to temptation. It would have been better to send a message, a simple and subtle request for forgiveness. Lara thought about how Aaron would se

The man was losing his sanity. He wanted to relieve everything he felt for that body, but he had a rule to worship every part of a woman's anatomy, to deserve the moment, and to give her the best of pleasure.Lara arched her body, releasing shivers as she moaned. She clutched the fine linen sheet between her fingers, wanting to express the implosion she felt. Granger resumed kissing the woman's throat, descending to create expectations.He pulled down the cups of her lace bra, revealing the round breasts of the beautiful woman. The pink aureoles received his full attention. Aaron kissed the skin of her breasts along its entire length, dragging his tongue between the mounds. His mouth savored her flavors, relishing each passing second.It was as if he could truly undress her before even removing her clothes. The way their bodies attracted each other was pure connection. Aaron's eyes roamed the woman's silhouette without reservation, with genuine admiration.The man continued his desce

Lara remained still, pondering what would be best for her mental health. She did not want to leave the apartment feeling hurt because, theoretically, there was no reason to do so.She had agreed to sleep with him again, so why did she feel like she had been used?"Your clothes are in the laundry. You can wear whatever you want from the closet," Lara was taken aback when Aaron spoke again. He was still adjusting the tie as he spoke, indicating he was not very interested in the matter."Okay... thank you," although she was a confident, strong, and very decisive woman, at that moment, Lara did not feel very vigorous."Breakfast is set in the kitchen. And you can leave whenever you want," and then, only then, Granger turned to Lara.She thought about the situation as a whole. Aaron was a man used to supermodels from all over the world. His affairs lasted no more than a few hours.When Lara slept with Aaron for the first time, at the brothel, she started a game of cat and mouse. A game whe

"Wait," Lara could hardly find her voice. "You are going to help Detective Spencer incriminate and arrest Aaron?""Fuck, Lara. Of course I am not going to do that. You are going to do it," he replied calmly."You must be out of your mind," Lara said, her voice trembling."What? You are not going to help your darling husband?" Greyson winked."If he were a decent husband, maybe!" As Lara's words tumbled out, tinged with bitterness and frustration, they seemed to ignite an inferno within Greyson. His eyes flashed with a dangerous intensity, his jaw clenched with barely contained rage.In a sudden outburst of fury, Greyson grabbed the glass from the table and hurled it towards Lara with a force fueled by his mounting anger. The glass sailed through the air with deadly speed, aimed directly at her. With reflexes honed by survival instincts, Lara instinctively dodged to the side, narrowly avoiding the glass projectile. It shattered against the wall behind her, sending a shower of sharp f

In response, Lara received a nod of agreement. Greyson, indeed, did not care, but he knew it was good to be seen as a generous man.And then she raised the plaque with her table number."Eighty thousand dollars from table five. Do we have ninety thousand?" the master of ceremonies encouraged.People diverted their eyes to Greyson's table, curious about the girl who made the bid. Lara hoped there would not be any other bids, as she did not want to spend thousands of dollars on a few milliliters of drink, especially because the money was Greyson's, and she did not want to become even more indebted to that despicable man. But she also did not want to lose.Some murmurs were heard, but they soon ceased when another guest accepted the bid, raising their plaque."We have a dispute, with ninety thousand dollars on table ten," the master of ceremonies said, excited about the course of the proposals."One hundred and fifty thousand dollars," Lara said in a clear tone, raising the plaque once

She reached her limit. Her patience would not allow her to continue that conversation, so the beautiful girl began to move away from the mirror. Lara knew she would have to pass by Sabrina at the door, and decided she would do so while ignoring the blonde's presence. However, she could not help but hear Sabrina's words: "It's been a while since we last saw each other," she said. "The last time was at the cocktail party, right?"The model slid her fingers over the rhinestone clutch she held in her hands. Lara stood just before her, a few steps away. And on the face of the beautiful girl, there was an unreadable expression. Lara did not seem unshakeable, but she also did not seem fragile."We can go longer without seeing each other," Lara retorted."We do not need to keep up the rivalry. You won him," Sabrina smiled like a snake. "Although you already have a husband. Do you like to collect?"Lara had to step away from Sabrina as she thought about the words she heard, certain that she

She looked back towards the elevators and saw Granger walking out of one. If the man did not have such good physical conditioning, Lara might have risked running away. However, she just stood still as he closed the distance.Harley, realizing that the moment wasn't his, stepped away from the beautiful woman. He remained a few steps away, enough to ensure the couple's protection and privacy. Because, after the incident in the elevator, any care would be little.Aaron assessed the woman's posture before him. He knew that his memory truly did not do justice to the beauty of that woman. She was even more beautiful than he remembered. The only thing that stood out was her unhappy expression. More than ever, the man wished to embrace that figure and not let go until they were one."I do not know what Sabrina said, but I do not want you to think we have something. We're just friends," he explained."Friends," she laughed, sarcastic. "She said you were hers," Lara pointed out, letting large

"I am not going to scold you. You can do whatever you want, with whomever you want," Lara replied."That's why Greyson cheats on you. You do not appreciate him," Kesha retorted, a smirk playing on her lips.Lara's hands trembled as she clenched the edge of the kitchen counter, struggling to contain her emotions. The weight of betrayal hung heavy in the air, suffocating her."How could I appreciate a man who fucks with my sister, in my bed?" Lara shot back, her words filled with bitterness and disbelief.Kesha's laughter cut through the tension like a knife. "Oh, come on, Lara. You act like you are so innocent, but we all know you are not. You've had your share of secrets too."Lara's jaw tightened. "This isn't about me. It's about you and Greyson, and the utter lack of respect you both have."Kesha's expression hardened. "Respect? You do not even respect yourself, Lara. You've let Greyson walk all over you for years, and now you are surprised when he finds someone who actually appreci
