Chapter 1

(Chelsea's POV)I will never forget the sound.The wet, rhythmic slap of skin against skin. The muffled groan I recognized as Adrian's voice. The low, breathless whimper I had only ever heard when my best friend confessed secrets after too many glasses of wine.It all collided together in the most nightmarish way the moment I opened the door to his apartment without knocking, like I always did a hundred times before, like I belonged there.I froze in the doorway, my hands trembling around the bag of Chinese takeout I had picked up for us. The smell of sweet and sour chicken clung to me, sickening when mixed with the scent of sex that lingered in the air.And there they were.Adrian was behind her, hands gripping her waist as he drove into her with the kind of savage energy that made him distracted enough not to realise someone had walked in on him having sex. Her long blonde hair swung wildly as she braced herself on the headboard, moaning his name, begging him not to stop.Sophia. My

Chapter 2

(Chelsea’s POV)The hotel was five stars and surprisingly, everyone at the front desk bowed their heads the moment they saw him. I suddenly wondered who he was. He didn’t need to check in. He just led me upstairs, his hand firm on the small of my back, and I followed without asking questions.My heart pounded loud in my chest because I knew this was my fault. I was the reason he had brought me here.The suite was larger than my apartment, with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the city. I barely had time to take it in before he was in front of me, his hand cupping my cheek, his thumb brushing across my lips.A shiver ran down my spine. I realized what I felt was fear. I had never had sex before. I had no idea what it would feel like.“Before I proceed, I need you to answer one single question for me.” He murmured, a soft look in his eyes as if he noticed the slight hint of hesitation. "What did he do?""Who?" I blinked."Your boyfriend."Color drained from my face. How did he know?

Chapter 3

(Chelsea’s POV)I barely remembered how I got home that night. The only thing that clung to me was the burn of his touch, the roughness of his voice in my ear, the way his fingers alone had driven me to the edge. And the way the voice in my head continually screamed, 'wrong, wrong, wrong.'Leonard Grey.My ex boyfriend’s father.Nothing more worse could have happened in my life.I blocked Adrian from contacting me on literally everywhere that I could remember. But I couldn’t sleep. I tossed and turned until dawn, my skin still thrumming with need, my stomach churning with disgust.What kind of sick twist of fate was that?To stumble out of heartbreak and straight into the arms of the one man that should never, ever know how it feels like for his fingers to be buried deep inside of me?I shook my head thoroughly, forcing myself to forget it all. Pretend it never happened. Pretend I never saw him and shove that night into the darkest corner of my mind and never let it crawl out again.I

Chapter 4

(Leonard's POV)Chelsea Laurent.I had looked over her résumé that morning the same way I looked over a dozen others. Scanning through with efficient judgment and absolutely no emotions attached. I had no idea the woman walking through my door would be her, the stranger from the bar, the one who vanished before dawn. The one who looked just about the same age as my own son, Adrian.When she stepped into my office, something inside of me came alive. Her chestnut-brown hair was pulled back, her blouse modest, but it didn't matter. My memory stripped away the fabric until all I could see was soft, bare skin, the replay of her voice, the way she had trembled when I brushed her shoulder.I had no idea why I gave her the job. My relationship with her should have just been a one night stand and nothing more. I shouldn't have cared less that she disappeared before she had a real taste of me. After all, I had gotten someone else to replace her at once.Yet, seeing her face again reminded me at

Chapter 5

(Chelsea's POV)"Dad!"My eyes widened.That voice. I recognized it. It was Adrian.Just as I'd guessed right, I was immediately released from Leonard's grip and able to land my eyes on that arrogant face of his. His smile so wide it was as if he was the happiest man in the world. Not like someone who had recently cheated on his so-called prettiest girlfriend in the world with her bestfriend.To say the least, he wasn't alone. Clinging to his arm, like she'd been born there, was Sophia.Her blonde curls gleamed under the lights, her red lips curled in a smile too sweet to be real. She wore a designer dress that screamed money and expenive jewelries she never had before I caught her in bed with my boyfriend.My heart twisted. The sight of them together made me feel like a knife was being driven into my chest. I also felt nauseous, like bile was rising in my throat.However, I kept my head down. Adrian didn't seem to notice me yet as he quickened his pace to give his father a big hug."

Chapter 6

(Leonard's POV)The moment Adrian and his girlfriend left my office, I fell in my chair and drummed my fingers on my desk.Funny of him to have thought he could bring a random girl to my office and request for a specific job position just because she was his so called girlfriend. Adrian knew I was strict when it came to business.And girlfriend? Girlfriends changed. He should have brought his fiancée and perhaps I would've listened to him.I cocked my head to the side and thought about the thing that gnawed at my mind the most.Chelsea.The way Adrian had called her name. The way he had looked at her. I didn't want to believe she was just a friend to him.Besides, when he realized Chelsea was my personal assistant, his expression changed and his girlfriend seemed pissed likewise.I picked up my phone and dialed a number."Hello, Greg.""Leonard!!! My man!!!"I winced at the sound of the man which yelled at the other end. He was my good friend and business partner, although I treated h

Chapter 7

(Chelsea's POV)I was wrong. Wrong to think I could manage to have everything under control.I spent the entire night after work thinking about my mother, how she was feeling, if the doctors were treating her any better, hoping the pain she was feeling wasn't getting any worse than it already was and it made me cry myself to sleep. Then I spent an extra hour crying in my bed the moment I woke up the next morning.Why? Why would my best friend do something like that to me? And how long had they been together? How long had they been sharing each other's beds?seeing each other's nakedness? Longing for each other? How long?And if I hadn't caught them, would they have kept on smiling in my face, pretending they weren't hurting me behind my back?!Could it be that they were in love? My own boyfriend? Or was this some sick way of my best friend secretly getting back at me for something I did and looking for all means to hurt me?I burst into fresh tears because I realized none of the reason

Chapter 8

(Chelsea's POV)While I stood preparing Leonard's cup of coffee, my head was about to explode with several thoughts running through it."It's just a cup of coffee he wants, right?""No way on earth is he going to try to touch me again, or grope me or throw me on top of his desk and want to—""Why on earth am I thinking he would want to throw me on top of his desk and do anything?! It's work. It's his office. No way he would try such a thing, right?"By the time I was done preparing his cup of coffee, my ears were beet red. I held the handle of the cup tight and carefully, so not to be absentminded enough to let it slip from my fingers and turned but nearly bumped into someone."Hi!" A beautiful red head was standing in front of me and another girl with shoulder length, wavy brown hair stood next to her, each smiling at me.The red head extended her hands and I took it. "I'm Sarah and this is..." She gestured to her friend."Charlotte." The other girl completed for her and I shook her

Chapter 9

(Chelsea's POV)“Oh, yeah,” Victor said with a teasing grin. “They talk about his voice, his hands, that sharp jawline. Some even say they wouldn’t mind being called into his office for a private meeting.”I felt my face heat up. “That’s— that’s ridiculous.”“Is it?” Victor asked, folding his arms. “I mean, come on, the man doesn’t even look like he’s in his forties. He’s got that whole ageless power thing going on. Maybe it’s the way he carries himself. The way he seems ruthless, cold, commanding and always in control. People love that sort of thing.”I looked away, pretending to focus on the last bits of shattered mug I’d swept into a dustpan. My ears were burning again.“Maybe,” I muttered, avoiding his eyes. “I wouldn’t know.”Victor tilted his head, catching the tone of my voice immediately. "So you're saying you don't think he’s attractive?"I opened my mouth, then closed it again.The image of Leonard’s amber eyes flashed in my mind, that intense gaze that always seemed to pin

Chapter 10

(Chelsea's POV)By three sharp, we would be leaving. Those were the words Leonard said to me before I left his office. I tried concentrating on one file on my computer, one file! And I couldn't. Because my eyes kept going to my wrist. The place he had held so tight and which now left a red mark on my arm.What a jerk!I couldn't believe I had welcomed the idea of him spanking me for a second. He wouldn't dare! I wasn't his daughter! And neither was I his... his..."Hello, Chelsea."I jumped, my heart flipping in my chest and turned my head sharply to the right to see Victor standing there, smiling at me. His smile dropped when he realized he'd scared me."Are you good? I'm— I'm so sorry—""No, no, it's fine." I chuckled, my hands to my chest as I felt embarrassed for not noticing him when he'd come to stand next to me. "I was just—""Distracted?" His smile returned, turning into a wide grin. "Yeah, I figured. Although you looked so angry. Is the big man stressing you out that much?""
