“Oh, my bad,” Sofia said, glancing back down at her phone. “She’s a temporary TA.”Aria blinked. “Temporary?”“Yeah,” Sofia continued scrolling.Some of the pressure in Aria’s chest eased slightly.She turned back to Sofia. “Wait. How do you even know all these so fast?” she asked. “We literally just saw them.”Sofia shrugged, tucking her phone away. “I have my ways.”Aria looked back toward where Jason and the girl had passed. If this Hera girl is temporary, what happened to Ethan?"I need to know what happened to his former T.A."She dug her phone out of her pocket and opened Ethan’s chat.No messages since the brief, polite “thanks again for covering” weeks ago, before she got reassigned.Aria: “Hi Ethan. Haven’t seen you around. Is everything okay?”“Maybe he’ll say ‘I left because Jason is a nightmare’” Sofia asked, laughing as she leaned in to read her text.“Don’t joke,” Aria said, her eyes glued to the screen.The reply came faster than she’d expected.Ethan: “Hey Aria. Sorry,

By the time it was late afternoon, most students had already left campus, leaving the walkways quiet and echoey.The kiosk’s metal shutter was half‑down; Tyler was inside, wiping the counter and fiddling with the till.Aria leaned against a nearby pillar, checking her phone for the fourth time in five minutes.He glanced up and grinned. “Staring at me won’t make me close faster.”“It might,” she said. “If you feel the burn of my impatience.”He snorted, flipped the lights off, and ducked under the half‑closed shutter and closed it. He slung his bag over his shoulder as he walked toward her.

The raw admission made her gasp as her heart hammered in her ribs.She reached up, tracing her fingers along the lines of his chest, feeling the heat radiating from his skin."Then don’t make me wait any longer,” she whispered as she parted her legs instinctively, inviting him closer.Tyler didn't hesitate. He leaned down, capturing her mouth in a fierce kiss, his tongue plunging deep into her throat.One hand trailed down her side, skimming the curve of her hips before dipping under her skirt.He caressed her thighs, going down until his fingers hooked into the edge of her panties, tugging them aside with a rough urgency.“Tyler…” Aria whispered as the cool air hit her exposed pussy, swollen and slick for him."God, Aria, you're soaking wet," he growled against her lips, his thumb tracing a feather-light path along her inner thigh, stopping just short of where she arched the most.She whimpered, lifting her hips like a silent plea. “Touch me, Tyler…please.”He smirked and cupped her

They lay there together for a long while.Aria’s cheeks pressed against his chest while he stroked her hair absentmindedly, catching occasionally on a curl, smoothing it down again.The city below had shifted fully to night. More lights, fewer visible details, the odd honk drifting up faintly.For a few minutes, neither of them said anything.She shifted, propping her chin on his chest so she could see his face.“Oh!,” she said, suddenly remembering. “I forgot to tell you. I got the news today about the Lawson gala. It’s officially happening next weekend.”His eyes widened. “Really?”“Yeah,” she said. “They just blasted the announcement everywhere. My face is… all over the internet. Look.”She got her phone and showed him one of the ads on Instagram.He grinned. “Oh wow. You look hot.”“I looked terrified,” she said. “I can see it in my eyes.”“Terrified and hot,” he corrected. “Power combo.”She rolled her eyes, but her mouth curved. “Anyway,” she said. “The point is—the gala is next

Jason had woken up early the next morning at the suite. He turned to his left and saw Aria sleeping peacefully.“The triple orgasm must have put you out,” he chuckled, tracing his fingers softly across her face.He showered, put on the new suit he’d ordered the previous night, watched her breathe for exactly thirty seconds, then walked out and shut the door behind him.Should he have left her there? He wondered as he sat in his car at the suite’s underground parking lot, fingers drumming on the steering

Jason stared at Victoria's text for a long while.“That’s strange,” he muttered to himself. “Why is she texting me now?”But he swallowed his curiosity before replying.Jason: “Rounding up. On my way.”He quickly zipped his trousers, picked up a few files and his laptop, grabbed his keys and left.By the time he pulled into the garage, it was already dark. He let himself in, already loosening his tie.“Jason!” Victoria stood at the base of the stairs with her arms crossed.She was dressed in an emerald gown that hugged her frame, her brunette hair swept up, diamond
