Benjamin Button Libro Novels & Stories

Removing some books from the top, my heart leaped for joy when I saw a book that I actually liked. "Thank you," I said with a smile as I pulled it out and admired the cover. "I'll continue to make use of them all." "What book is that?" Benjamin asked as he leaned in to look at the cover. "It's a fiction novel about romance in the midst of a plague," I answered and before I knew it, I was blabbering away.

She loosened the next button then the next. A light dusting of dark hair marched across his chest. Too eager to see him she didn't explore. She kept going until the front of his shirt parted. Benjamin took over then, shrugging out of it and laying the button down across the foot of her bed. Holy...

Now, Benjamin waited patiently, not rushing me, not pushing me, just letting me breathe. I took a shaky breath. “Maybe… clothes first?” He smiled. “Perfect. Lead the way.” I led us to a boutique I’d seen students talking about, with bright displays and racks lined with more clothes than I’d ever dreamed existed. The moment we stepped inside, a sales lady approached, eyes wide at Benjamin’s tailored shirt and the subtle air of wealth around him. “Welcome,” she gushed. “How can I help you today?” Benjamin answered with his usual calm authority. “We’re looking to restock her entire wardrobe. Start with casual, then formal. She’s starting college.”

Benjamin turned to his female assistant and Hannah and ordered, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and bring a cup of good coffee to the VIP lounge. Oh yes, bring some snacks too." Hannah was taken aback at first. Then, she quickly responded and ran to the pantry. However, Liam waved her hands calmly and said, "There's no need for all the hassle. Didn't you want to talk? Let's talk here." "Here?" Benjamin was confused, but he still nodded and continued, "Sure, since that's what you said, let's talk here, then. Are you sure you want to buy the most expensive King Mansion in Emerald Lake?" Benjamin's attitude was drastically different from earlier. He was mocking and insulting Liam a moment a

The car pulled into the yard, making me uneasy as I waited on the porch. I had promised to meet Benjamin tomorrow, and he had agreed. Yet now he showed up without warning. I couldn’t understand the way this man’s mind worked. He looked too much like Alexei, and just like Alexei, he was completely unpredictable. It felt as though Benjamin always thought several steps ahead of everyone else. When Benjamin stepped out of the car, my breath caught. Dressed in a casual collared shirt with a gray jacket, he walked toward me with confident strides. A faint smile curved his lips. It was a polite smile, yet there was an unmistakable flash of arrogance behind it.

TESSA I could see Benjamin—Ben, as he had introduced himself and insisted we call him. He did look like Ben. His face was too open and eager, as though he wanted to be trusted without earning it. And yet, every time his eyes slid toward me or, worse, toward Calla, I felt my chest constrict. There was something strange about the way he looked at us. It wasn’t hostile, but it wasn’t simple curiosity either. It was like he carried a memory in his stare, one that refused to stay buried.

"Now you've gone crazy, I won't let you do it. "Claudia, even if you make it difficult, I'll still know which hotel you're staying at, so walk." He gestured with his hands forward. She looked at him, right in his face. Benjamin was tall, quite tall, his face was that of a sensual, mature baby. He wore a beard several days old that looked a little light but wasn't. His hair was cut flush to his head and he had a small scar very near his left ear where no hair had been born, but the mark itself was so small, she didn't explain how he managed to see it. His jaw was angular, and his eyes were penetrating and somewhat clear, but at that moment before her (perhaps because of an afternoon without s
