Semua Bab Forbidden Flames: Dangerous Cravings: Bab 11 - Bab 20

The office was dead silent at 9:30 PM, with only the hum of the air conditioning and the glow of computer screens cutting through the darkness.Damien Black slammed his fist on the conference table, his jaw tight with frustration.“Lila, this report is complete garbage,” he snapped, his deep voice echoing through the empty floor. “I told you this presentation had to be perfect. What the hell were you thinking?”Lila stood frozen on the other side of the table, her heart pounding hard in her chest. She had been working late for three straight weeks on this project, sacrificing sleep and her personal life, and now her boss was tearing her work apart in front of her.“I double-checked everything, Mr. Black,” she replied, trying to keep her voice steady even though anger was rising inside her. “The numbers are accurate. If there’s a problem, it’s not because I didn’t work hard on it.”Damien ran a hand through his hair, his sharp eyes locking onto hers. He looked exhausted but still incre

Lila’s phone kept ringing loudly on the conference table, her best friend’s name flashing insistently on the screen.She reached for it with a trembling hand, her body still pressed firmly against Damien’s. Her heart was pounding so hard she could feel it in her throat.“I have to answer this,” she whispered urgently, her voice barely above a breath. “She knows I’m working late and will worry if I don’t pick up.”Damien didn’t pull away. Instead, he stayed pressed close behind her, his hands still gripping her hips possessively as he looked at her with dark, hungry eyes.“Answer it,” he murmured, his voice low and teasing against her ear. “But don’t you dare hang up too quickly. Let’s see how well you can keep that professional tone.”Lila swiped to answer the call, trying desperately to sound normal even though her legs were shaking. “Hey, Sarah. Yeah, I’m still at the office. Just finishing up some work on this big project.”Damien’s lips brushed against the sensitive skin of her ne

The secret texting had turned them both into addicts.Every day started with a risky good morning message and ended with late-night fantasies that left Sophia wet and Reed painfully hard. “I keep imagining you on your knees in my office.” “I want to fuck you so deep you feel me for days.” “I’m touching myself thinking about your cock right now.” The messages got bolder, dirtier, and more desperate with each passing day.By Friday evening, Dr. Reed couldn’t take it anymore.He sent her a simple text: “House call. My apartment. 9 PM. Don’t wear panties.”Sophia’s hands shook as she replied “Yes, Doctor” with a racing heart. She spent the next hour getting ready, choosing a simple sundress that was easy to take off, her body already aching in anticipation.When she arrived at his upscale apartment building, Reed opened the door before she even knocked. He looked tense, like he’d been pacing. The moment she stepped inside, he pulled her into his arms and kissed her like a man drowning.

Lila stormed out of the elevator onto the executive floor the next morning, her heels clicking sharply against the polished marble.The rumors had spread like wildfire overnight, whispers in the break room, sidelong glances from colleagues, and that pointed message from her coworker about the board asking questions.Her stomach twisted into knots as she replayed the conference room encounter in her mind, the security camera's blinking red light haunting her. She couldn't keep doing this. Not if she wanted any chance at a real career.She found Damien in his office and closed the door firmly behind her."Damien, we have to stop," she said, voice low but resolute. Her hands trembled at her sides."Last night was incredible, but it's getting too dangerous. The rumors are everywhere. I won't ruin both our lives."Damien rose slowly from his chair, his tall commanding frame filling the space. He stepped closer, eyes intense and burning."You're scared. I understand," he murmured softly. "B

Lila's hands shook as she showed Damien the note in the hotel suite.The words burned into her mind. Someone had followed them here. Their night of raw honesty was now tainted by this new danger."We handle this together," Damien said firmly, pulling her into his arms. "No more facing threats alone. We're a team now."They checked out of the hotel carefully, scanning for anyone watching. Another note arrived at Lila's desk later that day with clear instructions."Meet at the old storage building behind the office complex at 8 PM. Come alone or everyone sees everything."Lila showed Damien immediately. They decided to arrive early and face the threat as a united front.The storage building was dimly lit and eerily deserted. They hid near the entrance, hearts pounding with high tension.At exactly 8 PM, a figure approached from the shadows. Lila gasped when the person stepped into the light.It was Marcus, a jealous colleague from the marketing department. He had always watched her too
