บททั้งหมดของ Craving Mr Redd: บทที่ 31 - บทที่ 40

The silence that followed was deafening.Kyla nearly choked on her saliva, and heat flooded her cheek.But Carlos went on. “Kyla is allergic to vinegar. It was accidentally added to her meal yesterday. That caused her skin to itch, causing the red marks.” He turned to Kyla. “Right, Kyla?”She froze for a beat before nodding. She stared at Carlos like he'd grown a second head.“So mind your mouth and your assumptions at my table, Jayden,” Carlos warned, voice sharp. “You're out of line.”Jayden didn’t give in completely, but it was clear Carlos’s explanation landed. “I almost thought they were hickeys,” he muttered under his breath.“Oh dear, that’s worrisome.” Old Josie reached for Kyla’s hand. “Should I take you to the hospital?”“No, it’s fine.” Kyla brushed her hair over the mark. “The rash will fade soon.”“That’s good,” Josie said, then glared at Carlos. “You better be careful with what she eats. I can’t believe you didn’t check properly. I don’t want my baby sick.”Kyla quickly c

"Kyla?"Taylan's voice sounded too loud and sudden, snapping Kyla back to reality. It took a few seconds before it all crashed into her senses.The drink had gone down her throat, the glass of wine in her hand. Her gaze fixed on Taylan's lips.It was all in her head. She didn't. couldn't bring herself to do it.Why? She was ready to show Carlos he didn't matter. Ready to start something that might or might not be a great idea.But then, she weighed the outcome.Taylan was her boss, and by Monday, she'll probably get to be the hottest topic in the company.Elizabeth will hate her. Her co-intern will see her as someone perfidiously hooking up with her boss to become a full employee, which is not true...Maybe then Taylan will make a move and stand in front of everyone and tell them they were dating for, like, months before, to save her ass.Maybe all of that wouldn't even happen, as Carlos, her godforsaken guardian, will burst through the door and shoot Taylan straight in the chest, kid

Silence stretched on the line. Tense and heavy"I knew you were bluffing," Taylan replied. "I know Kyla, and I know she wasn't that kind of woman. I would have stepped in myself and confronted Dr. Romano, but since you handled it, I decided to step back.""And still wanted to have dinner with him.""That was for a business purpose. I had planned to send Kyla home if you hadn't dragged her away," Taylan retorted. "I won't let anyone hurt her. I'm not a villain." A pause. "Carlos Redd."Carlos's mouth curled further.Taylan went on. "You know a lot of things changed about you after you went missing years ago. Even my father warned me never to cross your path again. I left her that night because one of my men spotted you, letting me know you own the club. I never wanted to interfere in your and Kyla's relationship until I came across her resume in my office. She is a bright woman. She is my friend.""Classic. That's lovely," Carlos muttered, tone taunting.Taylan clicked his tongue on the

Vincent spewed out everything he knew. It wasn't enough, as the culprit was still anonymous in the shadow, but at least he got a lead now.Carlos was now staring at the post where Kyla's photo was exposed as Harper's daughter.The poster was referred to as 'the whisperer,' and judging by how careful the person was, it will be hard to trace.It could be anyone.Including those John might have trusted in the past.Now he understood why John put Kyla under his custody.Vincent was dead three hours ago, and Carlos was back in his office.Carlos's phone buzzed with a message. It was from his mother, requesting dinner with him.Sighing, he put his phone away without replying.His door clicked open, the scent of honey reached his nose, and heels clicked against his dark floor.Carlos slipped his eyes shut, his head rested backward, and his tall legs were slightly apart.He felt her soft hand gently slipping between his legs. His belt clamped softly as she undid them, finding her way until she

Kyla lay on the couch, hands above her head as he commanded. Her heart was painfully beating against her rib like it was about to burst in anticipation.When Carlos appeared in dark trousers and a red shirt, Kyla almost whimpered.Why is he dressed up when she'd literally seen him naked a moment ago?Noticing her stares, he said. "I'm going to fuck you."Why does that feel like a blow?"Why not? You don't want to?"He parted her legs and hovered over her, gripping her hands from above...Cold handcuffs pressed against her wrists."Rather than fucking, there are many other ways to pleasure a woman," he said, trailing his finger along her arm. "One of them you're to experience."He leaned closer, and for a moment, she thought they were going to kiss, only to have a red fabric pressing against her eyes, plunging her into darkness."Fuck," she cursed and heard him chuckle. "You have such a great annoying wall of restraint, Mr. Redd."That she fucking hates."You'll be surprised."She strug
