Chapter 2LolaWas it odd to say that I felt so good when I was supposed to be mourning my father's demise?Last night was wonderful. Mr stranger—yes, I named him stranger because I didn’t get his name—was the most wonderful companion ever. I’d gone to the club, not seeking company but for an easy escape from my grief, but the heavens surprised me with one.Even now, I can still remember how he smelled like chocolate melted in a bucket of sandalwood. His deep set brown eyes probed into my soul each time he set his gaze on me with that Greek god body that was specially built to tempt all womankind.Just one accidental meeting, but the feelings he aroused in me had become permanent. I was twenty-two and I could boldly say that I’d never felt that way for any man before, not even my current boyfriend.The only sad part was his age. He was apparently old enough to be my father so why couldn’t I stop pining for him? It didn't mean that my heart didn't constrict whenever I remembered my da

Chapter 4LolaI couldn't believe what I was doing, but I continued doing it anyway. Rowan had mistakenly left his door open, giving me the opportunity to see how mercilessly he fucked the woman that couldn't stop screaming his name all night. He looked like a beast, a handsome monster as he thrust furiously into her. I wanted to be in her place. I wanted to know how it would feel to experience such pleasure that was capable of numbing my mind. My panties were soaked, I could feel my wetness trickling down my thighs, but I could do nothing about it. Unable to take in the torture anymore, I shut the door carefully and returned to my room. I'd busied myself with watching the erotic scenes of Rowan and Lyra in bed, and now I couldn't get the images out of my head. Scrolling through reels on Instagram couldn't help so I searched for my boyfriend's contact and dialed his number. Even though I was harboring strange feelings for Rowan, it didn't change the fact that Zane was my boyfrien

Chapter 6RowanI hadn’t seen him in a long time, nine years precisely. Our relationship turned sour the day his mother died. He was only ten, but I could remember how he looked at me the evening I informed him about his mother’s death.It was as though he’d seen it for himself and didn’t want to believe my side of the story, and when he turned eighteen, he moved out of the house. He cut me off completely, didn’t return my calls or even use the money I put away in his trust fund even though he was old enough to use it.Seeing him again brought back an ache I’d managed to ignore after so many years, and as if that wasn’t enough, he was friends with the only girl that only her presence ignited a thousand sparks in my heart. “I need to leave,” he picked up his bag.Not wanting him to leave so hurriedly, I stepped in front of him. “Reid, it’s been five years now. Aren’t you happy to see me? You haven’t been here before, why don’t you sit with your friend while I make you guys lunch? You

Chapter 8 LolaHis words hit me hard like a cold gust of wind. My heart leapt in excitement as I realized that what I'd been wishing for has just become my reality. “You don't see me as a daughter anymore?” my eyes narrowed. “Did I touch you like one?” I huffed. “You play games with me, Rowan, and I don't appreciate it. From the onset, you told me that you don't want me and as hard as it was, I accepted it. Now, whatever happened in that pool is to be forgotten, Rowan,” I demanded, gulping. As hard and painful as it was, I realized that it was better this way. He still didn't know what he wanted with me and I didn't want to fall into the endless loop of uncertainty that would only lead to unrequited love and heartbreak.“Is that what you want?” he questioned, deadpanned. I almost changed my mind. Clenching my fist, I met his gaze squarely. “That's all I want. If you'll excuse me, I need to be in my room.” I said, walking away. Locked away in my room from the breathing temptati

Chapter 10LolaMy head hurt like crazy, but the fact that Reid fought over me against Zane hurt me more. I was trying hard not to blame him, but it was almost impossible because I wouldn't be in this position if he’d listened to me and stayed away from Zane. The doorknob, which was getting twisted, caught my attention. My eyes were fixed on the door as it gave way to Reid who poked his head first then came in. His grey orbs held remorse but behind it were glints of satisfaction as though he'd been wishing to throw that punch at Zane all his life. “Why are you here?” I questioned calmly so that my head wouldn't hurt more than it already did even though I wanted to scream at him for what he did. He drew closer to the bed, hands clasped behind him. “I came to see you,”“To confirm my death, right?” my tone was sassy. He slouched on the bed beside me, reaching for my hand which I withdrew immediately. “Lola, I'm sorry,”“What are you sorry for? Because I know damn well that you'd h
