All Chapters of My Bestie’s Father Likes Me Wet : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

CHAPTER THIRTY ONE: LATE NIGHT FINDSNOVA POVThe week had stretched like a lifetime. Seven days of silence. Seven days of walking past Grant as if we were strangers. Seven days of curling into myself, pretending I didn’t care, when every bone in my body ached from the weight of his absence.So tonight, instead of sleeping, I wrote. My journal has become my confessional, my graveyard, my punching bag. Ink spilling everything I can’t say out loud: the anxiety chewing at me, the anger curdling under my skin, the stupid, stubborn love that refuses to die no matter how badly he treats me.Maybe I wasn’t made to be loved.The thought scrawled itself in jagged lines across the page before I even realized my hand had written it. I shut the book quickly, blinking back the hot sting in my eyes. I swore I wouldn’t cry again.That’s when I heard it.At first it was faint like a glitch in the air, the kind of sound you think your tired brain makes up after being sex starved for days. A moan. Long

CHAPTER THIRTY THREE : Old EnemiesGRANT POVI managed to lure Nova out of her room without a flicker of suspicion. Of course I did. She’s nosy, predictable, and like any wise man worth his bullets, I kept that little detail hidden until I could make the most of it.In the mafia you learn fast: keep your enemies close enough to smell their fear. That’s why, even after the board of directors practically salivated for Nova’s resignation, I defended her. I stood for her. Not out of loyalty—don’t insult me—but because pulling her closer lets me measure the length of her leash.My gut tells me one of my own staff has been bleeding company secrets to outsiders. No proof yet, but the timeline doesn’t lie. Before Nova joined us, there were no leaks. Since then it’s a different story.And her ties to the Ratels? Another rotting thread I’m pulling at. My private investigators return with nothing, she’s too neat, too clean. Her background is sterilized like a hospital floor. No family except th

CHAPTER THIRTY FIVE : False AlarmNova POVThe flashing red-and-blue lights outside the mansion nearly stopped my heart.“Do you know what this is about?” Grant asked Ivin, his voice calm but heavy with that clipped edge he used when something wasn’t right.Ivin shook his head. No answers.Grant turned to me, and his gaze pinned me harder than the seatbelt, Cold and Unblinking and For the first time since I met him, I wondered if he’d hand me over without blinking if it meant saving himself.“Don’t get out,” he ordered. “If they ask questions, you don’t know anything. If they push harder, you tell them you’ll only speak with a lawyer present.”I nodded because my throat had locked shut. Fear does that.He barked some rasped instructions to Ivin, pulled out his phone, and made a call I didn’t catch, but I’d bet a thousand orgasms it was his lawyer. Then he was gone, striding toward the police like he owned their badges.I sat there, shivering in silence, while my brain staged a horror

CHAPTER THIRTY SEVEN: DEAL WITH THE DEVILNOVA POV“My rules are simple,” Luca drawled, his fingers circling lazily around the rim of his glass. He looked like a man on vacation; relaxed, careless but I wasn’t fooled. Behind that mask of nonchalance were the shadows of men in plain clothes, stationed at the edges of the room, pretending to blend with the crowd. All Burly, silent and waiting for any inconvenience. A noose. That’s what this was. And I could already feel the rope tightening around my throat.“I have what you need, and more importantly, what you don’t even realize you’re looking for.” His dark eyes bored into mine, a slow smile curving his lips. “But I’ll only give it to you… on one condition.”My pulse stuttered. Justice had always been my weakness, the word alone rattled in my bones like a sacred bell. I wanted to walk away, but my feet stayed rooted under the table.“What’s the condition?”Luca leaned forward, setting his drink aside. The space between us evaporate

CHAPTER THIRTY-NINE: Ice ColdGRANT POVI should hate her, avoid her, ignore her, and maybe even intentionally hurt her, but something about her keeps pulling me in. Keeps me on my toes. Keeps me yearning for more.Since the incident with Luca, I’m not so sure of Nova’s involvement with the Ratel Mafia. I know Luca well enough, if Nova works for him, he wouldn’t hesitate to flaunt that fact and gloat until I don’t want to see the next day. But the bastard has been interested in her.The plan was to watch out for any leaked information, and I wasn’t expecting Luca there. But Luca seeing Nova is like me purposely trying to get his attention, and now I regret the very decision that pushed me into taking a delectable, yummy delight like Nova to a place where hungry sharks like Luca roam and hunt for their next meal.Work has been going well, albeit with some mysteries that are yet to be uncovered, but so far the majority of the harm from the Nova system has almost faded.After I fucked N
