Novel & Cerita Kiss Him Not Me Spin Off

“You what? I know they’re related to he who shall not be named and all, but from what you’ve told me, they seem like they genuinely want to help. Where’s the problem?” I wring my hands as I look at her, debating coming clean. She blinks, realizing there’s more I haven’t said. The smile that graces her face should make me feel on the spot, but it doesn’t. It only makes me feel safer. “Tripp and I kind of…kissed. Twice,” I say, letting out a breath. “Tripp Adams, huh? Can’t say I had that on my bingo card.” She whistles. “…And I almost kissed Dane the other day, and⁠—”

When I finally slip out, Freddy won't meet my eyes. "You need to burn that folder," he says, voice shaking. "Please. Forget you ever saw it." I nod, even though we both know that's not actually going to happen, and I walk away feeling sick in a way that has nothing to do with getting caught and everything to do with what I'm turning into. By the time I'm home that night, my phone is already lit up. Zane: heard the assembly went well Zane: any progress on freddy I stare at the message for a long time before I finally type back.

He leans in, our faces so close to each other; his peppermint breath hits my nostrils. “I don’t know who fucking told you all these things, but there’s only you.” “I have eyes, Killian. I don’t need anyone to tell me what I saw.“ “The girl at the game,“ he says, “Devon’s cousin. She has not seen me since summer, and she is fifteen years old, and she jumped on me because that is what she does every single time since she was four.“ He holds my gaze. “That is who you saw me kiss.“

“Except the last time he talked to us—er, to Isobel—about his mysterious yellow Power Ranger, he had no idea who you were. I take it he knows now, since he recognized your… Cookies and called you Kaitlynn.” “He does,” I confirmed as I closed my eyes and gripped my head between my hands. “And he didn’t like learning I was the stepdaughter of his nemesis. So, now do you see why I ran off as soon as I realized who he was that night? I knew he wouldn’t like learning my connection to her. As soon as I learned who he was, I knew. And I swear, I didn’t know it was him in that courtyard before we started talking. Except, I’m pretty sure he doesn’t believe me. That’s basically what he told me this mo

“And still be part of yours?” “Yes.” He nodded. A smile was waiting to blossom fully onto his face if I gave the right answer. “You will have to go to board meetings. And I'm expecting several one-on-one meetings between the CEO of Travel, Inc and Dream Vacations. Don't worry, though, I hear he's cute.” I laughed, tears running down my cheeks. “Yes. Yes, I will partner with you!” His face split into a grin that made my heart soar. In a smooth motion, he tipped his head forward and kissed me. Our teeth clicked together because we were both smiling so broadly that we couldn't stop, but I didn't care. It was a great kiss.

I gently reassured them, guiding them to the couch with promises that I'd join them shortly. Knox pulling me into the kitchen caught me off guard, his eyes searching mine for a moment before he acted. His lips met mine in a sudden, passionate kiss that vibrated like a spark igniting a flame. It was a kiss that spoke of longing, unspoken promises and deep-seated desires. I could feel the intensity of his emotions, a turbulent mix of love, fear, and hope, swirling in that single, passionate gesture.

Damon didn’t sleep. Again. The sheets still smelled like her. Or maybe it was a memory. Either way, it strangled him. That kiss… It was nothing like before. It wasn’t love. It was punishment. And God help him—he wanted more of it. His lips still burned with the weight of her mouth. Her breath. Her words. “This kiss isn’t forgiveness. It’s evidence.” He replayed it a thousand times. And every time it ended the same — with her pulling away. And him… standing in the middle of everything he broke.

In a moment of impulsive decision, she closed the distance between them, her trembling lips meeting his. The kiss was meant to distract Haider, to momentarily dissolve the tension and create a semblance of a loving moment. However, as their lips touched, Ameera's heart sank. The connection she had once felt with Haider had been shattered, and what remained was merely a hallucination of the love they had shared. As the kiss lingered, Ameera's realization grew stronger. The sparks that had once ignited between them were now extinguished, replaced by a void of emptiness and betrayal. She pulled away, her eyes filled with a mix of disappointment and resignation.

And then he whispered, “I love you, Scarlett.” My heart stopped. Scarlett. I tried to move, to slip away—but he pulled me closer. His lips captured mine in a kiss so passionate. Tender. Hungry. And I didn’t stop him. Because for a moment, just one, I let myself pretend. That he was kissing me. “Fuck,” Damien groaned, grabbing his head as he pushed me to the side and collapsed back onto the bed. I sat up, watching him for a moment. He was out cold again, snoring softly.

“You see? I told you! You said, ‘No, Mary, I just want to focus on my studies,’ but look at you now. Miss ‘I’m-not-interested’ going on dreamy lake dates!” Kim nodded eagerly. “I saw this coming from the start. First, he stays in your room, then you ‘accidentally’ take care of him every day, and now you’re out by the water. Girl, the math is mathing.” Norah hid her face in her hands, trying not to smile. “You two are ridiculous.” “Oh, we’re not done,” Kim said, grinning wickedly. “So… tell us. How was the kiss?” Norah froze. “What—how did you—”
