All Chapters of Barely Legal: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Arianna left Pierce and noticed Poison Ivy hatefully glaring at her as she passed by. It was no other than Pierce’s ex, Stella. Arianna hated that Stella was allowed membership to the club, but she understood it would have been bad for business if she was turned down without a justifiable reason. Stella couldn’t wait to brag in Arianna’s face that she would be seeing a lot more of her. It was clear that Stella was trying to intimidate Arianna, but Arianna wasn’t impressed. Stella carried no weight, and Arianna knew it would only be a matter of time before she had to put Stella in her place. Lord knows Pierce had done everything but get a restraining order against the woman, but now it was Arianna’s turn to take a crack at her.Arianna retrieved her costume from the back of the coat closet and made her way to the bathroom. She knew that Stalking Stella had followed her out of the ballroom and was thrilled that the woman planned on confronting her in the bathroom.Arianna slipped into a

Pierce woke up when he heard the familiar sounds of Arianna’s loud snoring. She snuck into his room at some point and was now hogging all the covers.The doorbell rang, causing Pierce to groan lowly as he shuffled out of bed. He threw a shirt on and raced down the stairs when he remembered who it was.“Good morning. We have a delivery for Mr. Pierce White. A proud owner of a Tesla Roadster?”“That’s correct.”“Sign here, and we’ll be good to go,” the delivery man said.Pierce quickly scrawled his signature on the tablet and accepted the keys. He barely had the door closed when Arianna came stumbling down the stairs...naked.“Who was at the door?”“Are you going to make it a habit of walking around naked?”“It’s usually what I do at home, but if you have a problem with it, then toss me your shirt.”“I don’t have a problem with it...it’s just going to take some getting used to. How are you feeling?”“Not too horrible. I have a slight headache, and my eyes are killing me,” she said, rumm

“Dinner was delicious. How did you learn to cook so well?” Pierce sighed into Arianna’s hair as he held her tightly to his body.“YouTube has a ton of recipes. Go grocery shopping tomorrow since you have nothing better to do with your life,” Arianna demanded.“Yes, ma’am,” Pierce agreed, pecking Arianna on her soft lips. “Call me when you get home. Please mind the speed limit.”“I can’t make any promises, Pierce. If you didn’t want me to speed, then you shouldn’t have gotten me a Jaguar. You should’ve gotten me a Prius or something.”“Right. I’ll remember that for next time. You can’t drive that little two-seater forever.”“Why not?” Arianna questioned with furrowed eyebrows.“Where would you put the car seat?” Pierce teased.Arianna’s mouth popped open, and she couldn’t close it until she made it to the confines of her brand-new sports car. She revved the engine a couple of times, just to piss Pierce off, and peeled out of the driveway.***“Let’s go, Legs,” Arianna said, gathering h

“I parked in my assigned parking spot, and Stella came out of nowhere and began berating me about the car. She called me a slut and complained about how my car was worth more than her current car. I may or may not have egged her on to the point where she slapped me because I knew her membership would be terminated,” Arianna confessed.“That’s a little reckless, don’t you think?” Pierce asked, cleaning Arianna’s wound.“Pierce, trust me when I say that Stella is the least of my concerns. Plus, I could’ve dropped that bitch if I wanted.“I’m sorry this happened. I feel like it’s all my fault,” Pierce said.“It’s not your fault that she realized too late what a wonderful man you are. She didn’t appreciate you while she was with you and treated you like shit. She thought she was going to leave you broken-hearted. She didn’t bank on you moving on and replacing her with someone better.”“You’re such a sweetheart, Ari,” Pierce sighed, gently placing the Band-Aid on her knee. “How about I tak

Harry sighed and dramatically dropped his head.“I had a feeling you would say that,” he said, pulling out his phone. “One second, I might have something that’ll change your mind, Harry expressed, tapping away at his phone.Arianna used his distraction and tried to shove him off of her. Instead of catching him off guard, Arianna found herself staring down the barrel of his gun. “Don’t make me use this on you,” he warned.“You wouldn’t,” Arianna challenged.“What makes you so sure?”“Apparently, I’m worth a lot more alive than dead.”“True, but I’ll shoot you in your fucking knee cap. I’d still fuck you with a limp.”Bile rose in Arianna’s throat, and she was only seconds away from losing her meager breakfast of yogurt and granola.“Let’s check up on Pierce, shall we?”“I'd rather not.”“Too bad. Aw, look at that? He’s at the florist buying you some flowers. How sweet is that?” Harry asked, showing live-stream footage of Pierce on his phone. “One word, and he’ll have a bullet embedded
