《RUTHLESS TEMPTATION 》全部章節：第 31 章 - 第 40 章

Morning light seeped through the slats of Jace’s old blinds, cutting across his face in thin stripes of gold. He blinked against the brightness, and for the first time in a long time, waking up didn’t feel heavy.Last night’s laughter still lingered in his chest. Apart from the times he had been elias, he couldn’t really remember the last time he had eaten without calculating how many shifts he’d have to take to pay for it, or when he’d last spoken to someone without measuring every word or thinking of revenge. But Aiden… Aiden was different. He was easy to be around, good-looking and steady in a way Jace wasn’t used to.A small smile tugged at his lips as his gaze fell on the black jacket hanging neatly over his chair — Aiden’s jacket. He had forgotten to return it. Today, he’d make sure he did.Jace dragged himself out of bed, showered, brushed his teeth, and dressed in his best work shirt. As he buttoned it, he let out a breath — not the usual tired sigh, but one that felt… fresh.

Elias kissed him. Passionately. The heat of it still burned on Jace’s lips as Elias dragged him back for another, hungrier claim. Their mouths collided again, harder, wetter, the air thick with need. Elias had kissed jace numerous times but this time he kissed Jace as though the world around them could fall apart at any moment, and he wouldn’t let go. Jace melted against the wall, his fingers fisting in Elias’s shirt like he needed something solid to hold onto. His pulse thundered in his ears. It wasn’t just a kiss anymore—it was a battle for air, for control, for something deeper that terrified him as much as it thrilled him. Elias’s hand slid down Jace’s side, rough and possessive, finding the hem of his shirt and pushing it up with no patience. His palm flattened against Jace’s stomach, dragging upward, feeling every quiver in his muscles. The scrape of his fingers was both scorching and grounding. Jace’s breath hitched, body betraying him, arching into the touch. The corrido

Jace walked into Noah’s hospital room a little shaken, his body still buzzing with the ghost of Elias’s touch. He hadn’t expected it to affect him this much, to leave his chest tight, his lips sore, his pulse still erratic. He pushed the door open quietly, and his eyes fell on Aiden. The young man sat casually in a chair beside Noah’s bed, arms crossed, one ankle resting over his knee like he owned the place. His gaze flicked up, landing on Jace the moment he stepped inside. “I’ve been waiting for you,” Aiden said smoothly. Jace froze, his hand still on the door handle. “Oh...I’m sorry, I didn’t… I—” “Never mind,” Aiden cut in with a small shrug. “You don’t have to explain.” The words hung in the air, strange and loaded. Silence stretched between them, pressing down like thick fog. Jace forced himself to move further into the room, though his chest felt heavier with each step, his mind already churning with unease. Then Aiden’s mouth curved into something that looked like a smi

Elias’s phone buzzed against the surface of his desk, the vibration sharp enough to cut through the quiet of his office. He reached for it without looking away from the file he had been reading, expecting a routine update. But the name on the screen made his eyes narrow. Justin. The message was short and urgent. 'We need to meet.' Elias frowned, typing back quickly. 'Why?' No reply came. Instead, a moment later, another message dropped onto the screen—an encrypted attachment. He opened it with a slight grimace, a set of coordinates unfolding into a location on the map. A restaurant. Elias tilted his head, studying it. It's not flashy. Not polished. Certainly not the sort of establishment he would ever choose on his own. It looked almost deliberately plain, a place people went to vanish into the crowd and not to be seen. Which, of course, was likely the point. Justin didn’t want anyone catching them together. Elias slid his chair back, pocketed his phone, stood, and walked o

Aiden’s body ground hard against Jace’s, every thrust against the door sending a shudder through his frame. Jace’s nails raked over Aiden’s back, his mouth falling open with a strangled moan. The alcohol in his blood only made the world spin hotter, rougher, needier. “Fuck” Jace gasped, the word torn from his throat as Aiden dragged his mouth down his neck, teeth scraping, sucking. Jace arched, his head hitting the door, his body alive with every touch. Aiden’s hands fumbled at Jace’s belt, tugging it loose with impatient force. The sound of the buckle clattering filled the room before Aiden shoved his hand down, gripping his cock firmly. Jace cried out, hips jerking into the touch. “God...Aiden—” But Aiden didn’t let him finish. He dropped to his knees, pulling Jace’s pants down in one swift motion, leaving him exposed, flushed, Jace’s cock trembling. The cool air of the storeroom bit at Jace’s skin, but then Aiden’s mouth was wrapped around his cock—hot, wet, relentless. Jace’s
