All Chapters of The Devil’s Bargain: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Zoe bit her lip hard, trying to push his head away, her voice barely a whisper. “Don’t... don’t look anymore.”From her angle, she could see his bloodshot, burning eyes focused solely on her.“You don’t want me to look? Then what do you want me to do to you?” Aaron pressed his thumb firmly against the swollen center of her pleasure.“Mm...” Zoe’s cheeks were a deep crimson, her mind drifting. “Help me, Aaron. Please.”The second the words left her mouth, she felt a drenching, searing heat envelop her.Zoe let out a choked moan, her entire body trembling. His tongue was a master at work, sweeping into every corner of her. He used his teeth to graze and tug at her, sending jolts of electricity through her frame.He pushed deeper, his tongue swirling inside her slick heat. Every stroke sent her internal muscles into a rhythmic, desperate contraction.Wanting more, Aa

“Still cold?”Zoe couldn’t even find her voice. She just shook her head. With her skin pressed against his scorching chest, the chill of the mountain air had vanished completely. She felt like she was leaning against a furnace.Aaron grunted in satisfaction. His hands found her hips, lifting her and adjusting her position until she was hovering directly over his steel-hard length. Then, he guided her down.“Mmm...”A low, broken moan escaped Zoe as he filled her to the absolute limit. In this position, he was deeper than ever before. She felt a sharp, staggering fullness in her lower abdomen, as if the head of his shaft was threatening to pierce through her from the inside.“You look fragile,” Aaron challenged, his voice a dark, raspy growl. “Move for me. But if it’s too much, tell me. Don’t go breaking on me.”Zoe looked into his mocking, predatory eyes, and her stubborn stre

Martha soon brought out a pot of steaming, savory ginger porridge.“Come on, eat up while it’s hot,” she encouraged. “Finish this and take your medicine; you’ll both be back on your feet in no time.”“Where’s Silas?” Zoe asked.“Still out cold. I think he overdid it with the moonshine last night.”The four of them huddled around the small table on the porch. The atmosphere was peaceful, almost domestic. Zoe stirred her porridge, occasionally glancing at the two “patients” beside her.Feeling a pang of guilt for what had happened to Ryan, she fished out the perfectly poached egg from her bowl and slid it into his.“Here, have this. It’s better with the porridge. A doctor can’t afford to be sick, Ryan. If you’re out of commission, your patients will lose their ‘Angel,’ and their recovery time will double just from pure heartbreak.&

The moment they reached the door, before Aaron could even punch in the passcode, it swung open from the inside.Phoenix lunged out. Her beautiful features were distorted with a murderous rage. Without a single word of warning, she swung her hand.Smack!The blow was vicious. Her sharp nails raked across Aaron’s cheek, leaving a jagged red trail. Beads of blood immediately welled up, dripping onto his white shirt in a stark, jarring contrast.“What the hell is wrong with you? Are you insane?” Zoe’s brows shot up. Reflexively, she lunged forward to shove Phoenix’s hand away.“I’m disciplining my son. Since when does a little stray like you get a say?” Phoenix hissed. She raised her hand again, this time aiming for Zoe.But Aaron was faster. He stepped forward, seizing Phoenix’s wrist in a crushing grip and pulling Zoe behind him, shielding her with his broad frame like a fortress.&l

Aaron pressed a series of lingering kisses across her flushed cheeks and dazed eyes, his breath hitching before his gaze finally locked onto her parted lips.Zoe’s eyes went wide. She couldn’t believe it—this was the first time he had ever initiated a real kiss on the mouth.Even in the height of their previous encounters, he had always kept his distance from her lips, as if maintaining a final, invisible barrier. But today... today was different.His mouth was searing hot, crashing against hers with a raw, desperate hunger that forced her to yield. His tongue invaded her space, sweeping through every corner and tangling with hers in an aggressive, breathless dance.Zoe was paralyzed. The sheer unpredictability of the moment sent her heart into a frantic rhythm, her mind going completely blank.The kiss deepened, turning into a devouring, rhythmic assault. Aaron sucked at her tongue, pulling it into his own mouth as if he were try
