Urban RomanceThe moment I enter the office, I notice Tristan Godfrey's secretary, Scarlett Robertson, crouching under the desk.
She decides to tease Tristan on purpose, making him unable to school his features for a moment.
I place the documents before him, pretending not to notice anything.
"Here's the request for the funding for the western suburb project. Please sign this document."
Since Tristan is enduring the immense pleasure flaring from his lower body, he drops his signature on a couple of pages without even checking the fine details.
Then, he looks up at me, his eyes foggy with lust. "Wait… I thought your flight was tomorrow? Why are you back all of a sudden?"
I pick up the documents. "I'm here to deal with some urgent matters."
Before I turn around, I shoot a glance at the spot beneath the desk. "Tell her to come out."
Tristan is slightly stunned. He probably thinks that I'll do the same things I did before—intimidate Scarlett, tug at her hair, and take a video of her most vulnerable side.
But I merely add, "Her legs will go numb if she crouches under the desk for too long."
Knowing that he's in the wrong, Tristan quickly changes the subject. "What sort of urgent matters are you dealing with?"
I don't give him an answer. Instead, I close the door behind me and put up a "do not disturb" sign.
Tristan has no idea that I've just finished settling my urgent affairs.

By: Laila AliRomance"From today onwards, I will take every decision of your life. What you will eat, where will you go, when will you speak, what you will wear it will be all as I wish. And if you dare to defy me then till now it must have been crystal clear to you how far I can go to keep my words," his voice unsympathetic and cold, causing a shiver down her spine.
Out of fear she was not even able to raise her head and kept her eyes casted down.
He lifted her head up with his forefinger, underneath her chin and stared directly into her mesmerizing hazel eyes.
"Understood?"
Her throat was parched and her mouth was dry. Her tongue felt heavy in her mouth. The seam of her lips was cracked and pasted with each other and she couldn't find enough courage in herself to say anything using her tongue, so she just nodded and casted down her eyes again.
He raised her chin more now with his forefinger and thumb, indicating her to look in his eyes and she did so.
"Understood?" He asked again and raised both his eyebrows, warning her.
"Yy....ye..ss" she croaked out. Her eyes were widened with fear and hands were fisting the bedsheet. Her cheeks were imprinted with red finger marks.
"Good. Now take of your clothes and fulfill your duty" he ordered.
She only pleaded him with her eyes. Clearly, she didn't want her wedding night to turn out like this.

Urban RomanceThe morning of our wedding, I happen to discover a voice message saved under Joseph Payne's favorites.
"Honey, I miss you." A syrupy-sweet voice fills the air.
I confront him and demand an explanation, but he doesn't even flinch.
"I won't lie. I made a selfish mistake," he admits calmly. "But it was just a dare she lost. That message was a bet, nothing more."
Their chat history seems to confirm his claim. There's nothing flirtatious. They're just ordinary, day-to-day conversations. Nothing crosses the line.
But as I scroll through them, my eyes blur with tears, soaking the delicate fabric of my wedding dress.
I look at him and say, "Joseph, delete her number from your phone. We can still go on with the ceremony."
Seven years of being together has brought us to this final moment. We're just one step away from the altar.
Just days ago, I found out I was pregnant. We could have had it all today.
But right then, a young woman in a cleaner's uniform suddenly coughs blood and darts off with reddened eyes.
Joseph recognizes her instantly. And without thinking, he runs after her.
I grab his arm tightly. "If you walk away now, don't ever dream of marrying me again. This is your last chance."
He doesn't answer. Instead, one finger at a time, he pries my hand off his sleeve.
Then, he leaves.

Urban RomanceI just experienced the most unforgettable Christmas night of my life.
I had planned a pajama-themed Christmas party with my best friend, Lia Wright, and I purposely changed into my black, lacey night gown, took a sexy photo of myself in it, and sent it to her.
"Daddy, wanna open your Christmas present tonight?" I said in a text message to tease her.
Exactly three minutes later, she replied, "Are you sure you want to play this game?"
I chuckled at how serious she was, then typed my provocative reply. "Just say it if you're too scared to come over."
Now, 20 minutes later, the door to my room is suddenly thrown open with a loud bang.
Liam Blake, my childhood friend who had been giving me the cold shoulder for the past half year, shows up at the door, his eyes rimmed red and with a light dusting of snow on his clothes. He pushes me onto the bed and kisses me fiercely and fervently.
"What did you just call me earlier?" Liam gasps, backing away slightly so his hot breath fans across my lips. His voice is low and hoarse, and I have never heard him speak like that before. "Call me that again."
I shiver hard and quickly sober up before grabbing my phone that was still lit up.
I had thought that I'd been chatting with Lia the entire time. But now, I suddenly realize that the name on top of the chat window had been "Liam" the entire time.
