《My Enemy [BL]》全部章節：第 431 章 - 第 440 章

ELLISHis lips met mine with a slow, intense pressure that stole the air from my lungs. At first it was just a brush, soft, warm, almost tentative, like he was testing the waters even though his hand on my jaw said he already knew exactly what he wanted.But then the crowd’s chant blurred into white noise, and something in me snapped. I didn’t pull away. I couldn’t. My mouth parted under his, and Julian took it as the invitation it was.It almost felt like I couldn’t control my own body any more. I couldn’t help but wonder who was in control. My head? My heart?He deepened the kiss instantly, tilting his head to slot our lips together more perfectly. His mouth was hot, insistent, tasting faintly of the soda he’d sipped earlier and something darker, something that was just him.His tongue traced the seam of my lips before sliding inside, stroking against mine with a slow, velvet drag that sent a bolt of pure heat straight down my spine.Fuck...I groaned into his mouth, the sound vibra

ELLISThe ride home should’ve been easy.The limo was warm and quiet, the city lights drifting past the tinted windows in golden and white streams, the soft glow inside making everything feel detached from reality.Harris drove smoothly, like he’d done this a thousand times, so it felt completely ordinary. The seat was, as previously established, ridiculously comfortable.Everything on the outside seemed fine. Better than fine.But my brain, sensing this, decided to retaliate by making a mess of things.I stared out at the city lights while my thoughts spiraled back to the same territory they’d been circling all evening, landing at the same conclusions each time.Pamela, Julian, the date, tonight, the kisses.I’d kissed Pamela outside Kingston Hall on a Saturday evening. It had been sweet, warm, uncomplicated in that way things are when they’re right and good for you.I’d kissed her back and meant it and felt comfortable after, like enjoying a perfect cup of coffee on a slow morning s

ELLISPanic surged through me, a physical, all-consuming discomfort, starting in my chest and radiating outwards. I straightened up. "No reason."She looked at me.I looked back.Holy fuck...This lasted all of three seconds before her face shifted from patient understanding to sheer delight, which meant my expression had given something away."Oh my God," she exclaimed."What—""It’s Julian the Hottie, isn’t it?"I inhaled wrong, leading to a genuine coughing fit that offered no cover. "It’s not—""It is.""It is absolutely not—""Ellis," she said, grinning widely, the sort of smile she used when she was gearing up to have fun with something she had just discovered. "A certain six-foot-something, blue-eyed, annoyingly put-together roommate wouldn’t happen to be part of this conversation, would he?"Fuck...kill me now.My face was aflame. My ears were on fire. Honestly, my whole head was probably radiating heat at this point. "I hate you.""You love me.""I’m reconsidering that active

ELLISI managed to squeeze in about four hours of sleep that night. Honestly, I felt like it was a small win given everything going on. The issue wasn’t so much the lack of sleep but rather the poor quality of it; my brain had decided that sleep was optional and chose instead to replay the past week on repeat. Sera’s voice.The hockey game. The weight of the keychain in my jacket pocket that I somehow started carrying around. The constant awareness of a person who lived just twelve feet away and whom I was now, with great determination and a touch of obsession, trying to dodge.Avoidance had turned into my full-time gig, and I was getting surprisingly skilled at it.The days blurred into one long, chaotic routine. I’d rise before sunrise almost every morning, sneaking out of Pinnacle Hall while Julian remained snoozing under his blankets, blissfully unaware of my stealthy escape.I’d grab a coffee from the nearest vendor, clutching the scalding cup in my hands, and dive headfirst into

ELLISThe words came out flat, tired, and didn’t carry the authority I wanted. And trust me, I wanted lots of authority because this was my bed, and I was the one who’d been here first, with very clear feelings about the whole deal.But, surprise, surprise...Julian didn’t fucking budge.If anything, he seemed more at ease, even making a small shift like someone who’s found a comfortable spot and is letting it know he plans to stay and no one could ever change his strange ass mind.Again...kill me now.Outside, the storm was still throwing its weight at the windows, rain hammering the glass in waves while distant thunder rolled lazily across the sky, like it had all night to get wherever it was going.The apartment was cloaked in darkness since the power was out, with just enough dim light sneaking through the curtains to make out the unmistakable shape of Julian lying next to me like this was just a normal setup that didn’t need any explanation."Did you catch that?" I asked, unwillin
