MY BEST FRIEND’S FATHER. MAYA’S POV. “Maya, quit staring at your phone,” Luisa’s voice cut through the quiet room. She reached for my screen anyway…….like she could rip my misery out with her fingers. I jerked my phone back. “I can’t believe he hasn’t called all day.” Luisa scoffed, dragging her hand down her face. “Oh my God. You still….” “I just….” I swallowed. My throat felt tight, like the words were bruising me on the way out. “Wait. Are we really over?” Luisa went still for half a second. Then she muttered, “Ughh…Maya, not again…we can’t keep talking about that jerk over and over again.” I hated how her anger sounded like mine. Because the truth was, it was over. Asa had dumped me last night, like I was something he could set down and walk away from. Like the past three years we’d spent together meant nothing to him. I stared at the phone anyway, praying the screen would contradict reality. Luisa leaned closer. “Listen to me. If Asa wants out, then fine. But

Heart Break.

Luisa wouldn’t let me answer the call. I could tell because she was doing that thing where her face stayed calm, but her eyes begged me not to answer. Not to touch my phone and cause more mess. But me? I wanted a reason. Any reason. Anything that wasn’t Mr Sebastian Voss standing on a yacht like the ocean existed to worship him. Anything that could drown out the way my body kept reacting to him… And what if Asa was calling to apologize? So when my phone buzzed again, I didn’t wait for Luisa to stop me. I answered on the last ring. “Hello,” I said, breathless. For a second, all I heard was silence. Then Asa’s voice came through…so mean and harsh. Like I was an inconvenience he’d already decided to punish. “Why do you keep calling me, Maya?” The irritation in his voice caught me off guard. My stomach dropped. “Asa, please. Just listen to me for a second.” “I don’t want to listen.” “Please.” There was a long silence, then he laughed. Tiredly. “We’r

“Maya! Are you in there?” Mr. Sebastian pulled back immediately. Too quickly. One second he was close enough to steal my breath.The next, he was stepping away as though nothing had happened. The door eased open and Luisa walked in. Her gaze landed on us first. Then on the shattered wine bottle by my feet. Her expression tightened. She looked at her father, waiting for an explanation. Mr. Sebastian’s jaw flexed. For a moment, I thought he might say something…Instead, he turned toward the door. “Someone will take care of the mess later,” he said calmly. His voice sounded perfectly normal. Too normal. “I’ll be by the helm if you need anything.” He didn’t look at me again. Then he walked out. The moment the door shut behind him, the room felt strangely empty. Luisa stared after him before turning back to me. “Maya… what happened?” I swallowed. My throat still burned from the alcohol…My head felt light…My thoughts felt even lighter. “I…” I struggled to find the words.

Danger.

MAYA’S POV. “More,” I mumbled, sliding the empty shot glass across the counter as I waited for the bartender to pour another round of vodka. The glass slipped from my fingers and tipped onto its side with a soft clink. I blinked at it for a second before letting out a small, crooked laugh. The room tilted ever so slightly. Or maybe I had. I wasn’t sure anymore. I rolled my head once, slowly, trying to steady the strange heaviness behind my eyes, but it only made the colored lights smear together into bright streaks. Not enough. None of it was enough. The music was loud. People were having all kinds of fun around…I should have too. But somehow, the emptiness inside my chest still swallowed all of it. Beside me, Luisa swayed effortlessly to the music, as though she’d been born for nights like this. A minute ago she’d been laughing. Now she was watching me. Not with amusement, but with concern. Maybe even guilt. I reached for the fresh shot before the ba

Let Her Go.

“Ignoring me isn’t very polite.” The tattooed man’s fingers tightened around my wrist. I flinched. “I… I’m sorry,” I mumbled automatically, my voice barely steady. He smiled. Not kindly. Like he already knew I couldn’t get away. “I asked you a question.” His gaze wandered lazily over my face. “Who were you looking for?” I swallowed. “My friend.” “The blonde?” I nodded, surprised he’d seen me and Luisa together. Which also meant he could have followed me up here. “I…I got lost.” I added. “Aww.” He laughed softly. “That’s cute.” His thumb brushed slowly across the inside of my wrist. Every instinct in my body screamed run. I tried to pull away. “Please…I just want to find her.” I said softly, praying he would understand. “But you found me instead.” He stepped closer. Too close. The smell of alcohol on his breath made my stomach twist. “I said…” I tried again, my voice shaking. “Please let me go.” He tilted his head. “Where are your manners?” Before I could

Drunk.

Mr. Sebastian’s hand remained wrapped around mine as he led me away from the tattooed man lying unconscious on the floor.Only then did the reality of what had almost happened begin to settle over me.If Sebastian hadn’t found me…If he had arrived even a minute later…GoshA cold shiver raced down my spine.My knees suddenly felt weak.I trembled.Sebastian glanced down at me almost immediately.“Are you cold?” he asked quietly, finally breaking the silence between us.I shook my head.“No.”But my voice sounded small.Fragile.I wasn’t cold.I was terrified as hell…knowing the kind of danger I would have been in if he hadn’t come to my rescue.His eyes lingered on my face for a brief moment before he gently tightened his grip around my hand.He didn’t say another word.He simply kept walking, leading me through the crowded nightclub and outside.The music faded behind us as we stepped outside.I turned back quickly towards the entrance door, like I was forgetting something.I was abo

Sleepless night.

I stood beneath the shower, letting the warm water pour over me.It soaked my hair.Slid over my shoulders.Ran the length of my body.But none of it washed away the memory of what had happened outside.Or the humiliation that still burned beneath my skin.God…What had I been thinking?I squeezed my eyes shut.I had actually leaned in. No. Like, I had almost kissed him.Fuck!Mr. Sebastian.A man who had done nothing except remind me, over and over again, that there were lines we couldn’t cross.I let out a shaky breath.It was stupid.So unbelievably stupid.I wasn’t his.I never could be.I was his daughter’s best friend.His best friend’s daughter.Someone he had probably spent years looking after.Nothing more.And the way he’d pulled away replayed in my mind like a punishment.So quickly.So instinctively.As though the very thought of kissing me had been wrong.Forbidden.I wrapped my arms around myself.“I can’t do this again,” I whispered, shaking my head in disappointment.“

YEARNING.

“You’re awake.”The words left my mouth before I could stop them.Great.Out of every possible thing I could have said…that was it.Maya blinked, as though I’d startled her just as much as she’d startled me.“I…” She tucked a damp strand of hair behind her ear. “I couldn’t sleep.”Neither could I.But I wasn’t stupid enough to admit that.I forced my gaze away from her, but that was a big mistake.Because the moment I looked back…I couldn’t help but notice how my oversized white cotton shirt hung loosely over her frame, the sleeves swallowing her hands while the hem rested against the middle of her thighs.So sexy.Fuck!I swallowed hard.She could have borrowed Luisa’s clothes instead…not torture me with this.Damn!“Headache?” I asked, my voice quieter than intended.She nodded once.“I wanted some water.”“Sit.” The word came out more like an instruction than a suggestion.She hesitated.Then obeyed, climbing onto one of the stools by the kitchen island.I turned before she could

What the?…

Without a single explanation…Mr. Sebastian turned around and walked away from the kitchen.Leaving me standing there…Speechless and confused.My fingertips drifted to my lips.They still tingled from his kiss.“What the…?”7:35AM.BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!The phone alarm exploded across the room.I reached over and turned it off before it could ring a second time.My eyes were already open…they’d been for hours.I hadn’t slept.Not really.Because every time I closed my eyes…I was back in the kitchen.His hand tangled gently in my hair.His sweet and mushy lips against mine.Ouuh!His touch.But everything came crashing down at the part where he’d walked away without a single explanation.I stared blankly at the ceiling.Exhaustion weighed heavily on every part of my body.My eyes burned.My head still throbbed from last night’s alcohol.But somehow…None of that compared to the ache inside my chest.“Why?” I whispered into the empty room.The same question had haunted me all night.And

TENSION.

MR. SEBASTIAN VOSS’S POV.“…and if we proceed with the acquisition before the fourth quarter, projections indicate an eighteen percent increase in annual revenue.”Someone was talking.I knew that much.Words drifted around the boardroom...Charts changed across the massive screen.Numbers…Graphs…Forecasts.Normally, I would’ve corrected a few mistakes by now.Instead…I couldn’t remember a single word the presenter had just said.“Mr. Voss?”I heard someone call my name faintly.“Mr. Voss?”My eyes lifted.Every executive around the table was looking at me.Waiting.I blinked once.“I’m sorry.”My voice sounded distant.“Continue.”The presentation resumed.I stared at the screen.Another graph appeared.Another explanation followed.Still, nothing registered.Because every time I tried to focus…I saw her.Standing barefoot in my kitchen.My shirt hanging loosely over her body, making her so fucking sexy.The way her voice trembled when she said my name.God…Her voice refused to le
