Shower Thoughts

What...what are you doing, Simon?" Hazel stuttered, her eyes darting everywhere but into Simon's eyes. "You are pushing me into temptation, Haze. You're slowly turning me into a sinner." His huge, calloused hand ran smoothly down Hazel's cheeks, leaving her breathless. "You...you are my stepbrother," Hazel said. "And?" Simon asked, raising an eyebrow. "And, you have a daughter, Simon. I...I can't do this," Hazel replied, shaking her head. "Look into my eyes, Haze, and tell me you don't want me." ********** The death of Hazel's stepdad marked the beginning of something sinful for her. After the burial, her mother sold the house where Hazel was supposed to live after spending five years in California. Left stranded by her own mother, Hazel had nowhere to go except her step-brother's home. Thinking she could stay with Simon temporarily until she found an apartment, Hazel discovered that living with him brought out forbidden thoughts she once had about him. Simon was slowly turning her into a sinner. With her hot mafia stepbrother hovering around and making her heart flutter, will Hazel give in to this temptation, despite knowing Simon has a daughter and is twelve years older than her?

The Eagle I watch her come out of the shower, the droplets of water on her body, I would like to take their place. I hand her a pair of panties and a top that fits her breasts well. - Get dressed. She turns her back to me so she can dress. - The first rule: never be ashamed of me. - The second rule: always dress in front of me and without turning your back to me. So look here and remove the towel to get dressed. She faces me and unwraps her towel; I look at the naked body in front of me: her enormous breasts standing out, her buttocks visible behind her, she tries to quickly put on her panties. - Stop.

She does not respond. - Come closer so I can help you get dressed. She remains frozen, unwilling to approach. - Rule No. 3: always do what I ask you. Come closer.

Amelia's leg tapped against the table as she asked, "What are your thoughts on love?" Her hands were clasped together on her lap, but her eyes sparkled with curiosity. Lucas met her gaze, a smirk playing on his lips. "Love is a waste of time," he replied. "It's a tool designed to weigh people down. Without it, we could achieve so much more." Amelia's eyes lit up with interest; he had just ticked almost all her boxes green. "I agree," she said, her smirk matching his. "Love is nothing but bullshit. We could save a lot of time by keeping our relationship minimal." With a proactive glint in her eye, she added, "What do you say? We should get married to fulfill our filial duties." _____________ Their marriage was a facade, a contract between two individuals who didn't believe in love but were forced to get married to fulfill their obligations. Everything was going as planned, until suddenly... "Have you eaten, dear?" "How is my baby?" "Is he doing well?" Lucas's words, once empty and mechanical, now held a tender tone. Amelia found him falling for her, and she seemed to be falling too. Why were they succumbing to the very thing they once scorned? Love, once a distant possibility, was now becoming an option. But would they choose it?

My Fantasies, Exposed!" Elias McIntyre was the classic definition of a nerd—quiet, book-smart, hidden behind oversized glasses and baggy clothes. She kept to herself, buried in schoolwork and fiction… especially the kind she secretly wrote in her personal journal. No one knew about her massive crush on Kaelen Nightshade—the Hot biker, star quarterback, and her twin brother's sworn enemy.

One morning, she walks into school and finds everyone staring. Her secret journal, the one filled with steamy thoughts about Kaelen, has been leaked. And suddenly, she’s not invisible anymore. Especially to him.

While my boyfriend, Caleb Lawson, is in the shower, I grab his phone on a whim and drop a message in the group chat he's in with his friends. "Guess who I'm with tonight." I expect them to say my name, but their reply blindsides me. "That freshman who used to chase you when you were a sophomore? She's obsessed with you. She's definitely easier than your girlfriend. Want us to swing by tonight?" My gut tells me he's hiding more than an affair. Just as I start scrolling through his messages with the freshman, a notification from her pops up. "Caleb, I agree to the threesome. I'll do anything you want." Seconds later, another message appears in the group chat. "Just be careful this time. We don't need another body on our hands."
