Lahat ng Kabanata ng Signed, Sealed, Betrayed: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 7

My name is Nicole Reeves. I'm 29, and I have a very high sex drive. I used to be a software engineer, which was as dry as it sounds. These days I run an online adult-novelty shop.Every product photo on the site is me. Face, body, all of it. Two full breasts, a narrow waist, long pale legs, small smooth feet without a single callus.Which means the creeps online lose their minds. They send me 'inquiries,' asking whether I deliver in person after they place an order.Keep dreaming, boys. I looked up at the delivery guy in my living room, who was blushing like crazy while he helped me box up orders. Brandon Hayes. If it was him, I might actually think about it.Brandon ran the route for my building. Somewhere under thirty, a solid six-one, tan skin, thick arms, and a very generous bulge in the front of his work pants. In the daytime he looked after me like a brother. In my dreams, he was significantly less brotherly.Meeting him was the first time I understood what 'chemistry' act

His hand was wide and warm, and every time it moved against me it lit something deeper. I was coming apart.My head was spinning. I bit down on my lip to stay present for half a second, and then his mouth covered mine.Everything else dropped out. My hands fisted into the front of his shirt. The tension in my whole body loosened under him.After a long time, he pulled back, brushed my lower lip with his thumb, and said, "Nicole. I love you. I've loved you forever. I can't hold back anymore."He leaned in again. His mouth moved from my lips to my cheek, my jaw, down my neck, lower. I felt like I was on fire. Every cell of me was lit up.This was moving way too fast. Somewhere underneath, a voice was telling me to stop him. My body would not listen. My body was loud and shameless. "Don't... don't stop..."Right when I saw just how much he wanted this, his phone rang. A sharp, ugly ringtone that shattered the mood.He frowned, reached out, and fished the phone out with obvious irri

Brandon was off at a work training that day, so I was home alone when the manufacturer called. They'd already tried me a bunch of times on different numbers. I'd been ducking the calls because I figured they just wanted me to take the one-star review down.This time I picked up, annoyed."Ms. Reeves, thank you for finally answering. Our product has no quality issues. Our engineering team inspected the returned unit and concluded the housing had been opened and the internals modified. These devices cannot be resold after tampering, so we are unable to issue a refund. Thank you for your understanding.""That's not possible. I didn't touch it. Nobody touched it between the time it arrived and the time it was sent back.""However, our engineers have confirmed the internals were rewired. A high-torque motor was added. The circuitry was cross-connected. The unit was also coated with a large dose of flibanserin. Ma'am... was the packaging intact on delivery?""Packaging? You want to talk

I was still wiping my eyes when the officers pulled up. I walked them through what had just happened and handed over the package she had dropped.They opened it. Inside were small listening devices, a miniature camera rig, and a bottle of sulfuric acid. She had never stopped watching me. She was escalating.With that evidence in hand, the PD reopened the case against Brandon's 'cousin.' I worked with them on every detail I could remember about her.After a deep dive, the PD built enough of a case. She had not just been involved in the earlier operation. She had been running it.They arrested her. Once they had her on that level of evidence, she talked.She was not Brandon's cousin at all. She had come from a broken, poor household. She was significantly older than him, and his family had refused to approve the relationship. So the two of them had run off together and landed in this city.She had wanted to prove herself, fast. She wanted to make real money. A friend pulled her int
