Stay In My Arms If You Dare Novels & Stories

I was brave. So why was I tiptoeing over to my bag, quietly scooping it up, and tiptoeing back up the stairs? Because I'd spent my entire life waiting in the wings for love to find me, and now I'm standing onstage and demanding attention...and I'm going to get it any way I can. With nice outfits. . . or wearing nothing at all. Clouds quickly obscured the sun. The brightness has vanished. The wind rocked the windows as rain splattered across the glass.

“I was so scared… they wouldn't let me go…” Damien stepped up behind me, his large, muscular arms enveloping me from behind and pulling my back tightly against his chest. He held me with a desperate, crushing intensity. “It’s okay now, beautiful. We’ve got you. We are right here, and no one is ever going to touch you again.”

Ariana's Pov Damian is breathing hard, shoulders rising and falling. His hands are still shaking, one bloodied, the other clenched so tight I think he might crush bone. When his eyes meet mine, something inside me gives way — the fear, the fight, the endless tension I’ve been holding in since the moment they took me. I’m in his arms. It’s not gentle. It’s desperate. His chest heaves against mine, his breath ragged as if he’s been holding it since I disappeared.

He yanked me closer, his grip bruising as he kept me in front of him like a shield. I couldn’t move even if I wanted to; every muscle in my body felt frozen, the fear anchoring me to the spot. “You leave now, without harming me, and I’ll let her go. That’s the deal,” Moscow demanded, his tone turning desperate. Dare, standing firm across the room, didn’t waver for a second. His eyes locked on me, flickering with a promise I could feel even from where I stood. “I’m not leaving her,” he said, his voice a low growl, but deadly.

Jasper began. "You don't need to ask for her permission, just do it already!" Ari said outloud. "Don't worry about your partners, just do it already! It's a dare" another yelled. "Stand up Jasper, Do this, Be a man and man up!" another added. Jasper stood up slowly and everyone went silent again, he moved towards me. Taking a turn, "Alright, I accept the dare," he said. Is he really going to do it? But before I could speak out, Jasper reached out and spun my chair over and took my hand in his. He pulled me closer, and our bodies met, he leaned closer and I could feel his hot breath on my skin.

I snapped, though the tremble in my voice betrayed me. “Oh, you will.” He stepped closer, his boots crunching leaves. “Darius wants you. That’s all that matters.” My chest tightened. My breathing picked up. Their eyes were everywhere—watching, calculating, deciding how to break me. Then one of them moved. He grabbed my arm—hard—yanking me forward. I gasped, the pain shooting through my injured arm like fire. “Let go of me!” I shoved him, twisting out of his grip, stumbling backward. He snarled and reached again—

She adjusted herself and arched forward on the chair, staring uncomfortably at Elena as she said "Let's begin", "So Lorraine, you won the game night, so we'll start with you. Truth or dare", Elena asked "Truth", "Is your boyfriend secretly rich?" Elena went right off the bat. Immediately Lorraine became greatly uncomfortable and tried to change her pick, "Dare. I meant to say "Dare," she quickly defended

And even if he'll recognize me, he won't have the tiniest bit of idea that I know what he did. "Why are we just sitting? Let's play a game...common" A red haired guy said, grabbing the attention of everyone. Everyone agreed with his idea. Well, except me who didn't know what to say. "What game are we playing then?" Another guy asked, he was sitting three people at the guy I saw jerking off at the bath, the left I mean. "A daring game..." The red haired guy said and they all agreed. "No limits to the dares, but no death dares are allowed" he gave the rules and they all nodded.

"Dance with me." His arm encircled me and he pushed me close against his body. "You look out of this world tonight, Bri. An absolute dream." He whispered in my ear and his arm tightened around me. He breathed in deeply and his body seemed to relax slightly, like he was very tense before and could finally chill out. My arms moved up his arms to his neck and my nails slightly grazed the back of his neck. I saw goosebumps rise on his skin. "You too, Adrian." I whispered and in response, his other arm wound around my body and he held me like I was his anchor. For long moments, he stood there with his arms tightly secured around me and in that moment, I felt truly safe.
