All Chapters of Wicked Swipe: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Isla’s POVI stood in the middle of the room, my gaze cutting through every detail like a blade. Tomorrow, this store would be flooded with people who mattered. Honestly, my heart had been racing for a week straight.For the past seven days, I’d exiled myself from the office, pouring every ounce of focus into this space. The closer we crept to launch day, the heavier the pressure pressed against my shoulders.Sure, the presentation had already been signed off by the team lead, but I knew the real game wouldn’t begin until the doors opened. One tiny, overlooked detail could unravel everything I’d built. That wasn’t something I could live with.Straightening my spine, I adjusted the last scarf around a mannequin’s neck. A long breath finally escaped my chest.Almost done.“Ready to go home?” Nola’s voice broke my focus. Her hair was a wreck, tied up in a careless knot.I gave her a quick glance. If I had a mirror right now, I knew I wouldn’t look much better. My hair was a mess, my blaz

Isla's POVI couldn’t contain the rush bubbling inside me. Tonight’s event was a massive success. Eleanor Rowe was officially set to dominate the UK retail market. And knowing I had a hand in making that happen, it made my chest swell with pride.As the last guests filtered out and the music finally died, I stayed rooted in place. A few of my colleagues lingered too, but the silence slowly replaced the buzz of the night. I let my gaze sweep over the store one last time, my smile refusing to fade.“Good job today.” With the last guest gone, he addressed the team who’d fought tooth and nail to make this night flawless. “Let’s wrap it up for tonight. Tomorrow, we start a new journey.”Applause erupted. After that, my team drifted out one by one, heading home with tired smiles.I stayed behind. Hoping for a chance to talk to Julian. My pulse still buzzed with leftover adrenaline, the euphoria of success humming through me. I wasn’t ready to head back to my empty apartment. I needed someon

Isla POVThe comfort made me reluctant to open my eyes. Instead, I curled tighter and hugged Julian’s body that had been my pillow all night.His skin flowed warmth into my chest. I stroked his chest, savoring the pleasure that wrapped itself around me.“Are you hungry?” he asked.I’d even forgotten the last time I’d eaten. Julian had completely wrecked my life, yet my stomach chose that exact wrong moment to grumble.Julian chuckled. “Let's eat something.”I groaned when Julian lifted me. I flopped back onto the bed, feeling like I would rather not do anything today except curl up under the sheets.Oh… of course I wouldn’t mind if Julian wanted to do it again. Just remembering it made a smile bloom.Julian pushed himself up. Casually, he headed toward the walk-in closet that connected the bedroom to the bathroom. I rested my head on his arm, not moving an inch from his shape.He seemed utterly unconcerned about his naked body. The sight sharpened something inside me.I smirked, proud

Isla POV“I want to know about your life in New York.” I stroked the chest that had become my pillow tonight.“Nothing special.”I scowled. “I wish to know what you were like before you met me. That’s my question for today.” I tipped my chin up to look at him. “Even if you’re my boyfriend now, you still have to answer my daily question.”Julian folded his arms behind his head. He’s so hairy. It’s the first time I’ve been with a man with this much hair on his body. Instead of grossing me out, it made me hotter. That chest hair only made him more dangerous.“I worked at the same company for years,” he finally said. “I started from zero and worked my way up to CMO. So I don’t have a lot of variety in experience.” I watched him without blinking, waiting for more. “Candice was born when I was twenty-four. I was just building my career then. The baby changed everything—gave me responsibilities. That’s why I stayed at the same company for so long; it was a safety net.”“Did you ever think

Isla POVHis hand moved towards my ass. The warm water around me now lost its meaning, because Julian's presence was burning my whole body.He caressed my pussy while his lips continued to kiss my breasts endlessly.Without letting go of me, Julian stood up. He carried me out of the hot tub. Water droplets falling from our bodies became the background melody of the upcoming hot scene.Julian sat me on the edge of the pool before he got back into the hot tub. He spread my legs wide open, making me very exposed in front of him.“Julian…” My scream pierced the night as his tongue played in my moist pussy.Under the starry night sky, Julian satisfied me with his tongue. I sat leaning on my elbows and watched Julian devour my pussy so passionately.My breath instantly became irregular because of the sensations he left.This was my first experience of making love in an open place. The night air swept over my body, making me shiver with cold but at the same time burn with passionate desire.
