LOGINAria frowned slightly. “Pretty sure.”
She wasn’t looking for complications. Just one reckless night to erase Marcus.Then tomorrow, she would start her Masters program with a clean slate.
No baggage. No feelings.
He studied her for a long moment, his blue eyes darkening. “Alright. One night.” Before she could say another word, his mouth claimed hers again—deeper, rougher, like he was rewriting every rule she’d just set. He dragged his lips down her jaw, nipping at the sensitive skin of her neck while his hands roamed her curves. She gasped, tilting her head back as he sucked hard. His palms slid down to squeeze her ass cheeks, pulling her tighter against him so she could feel every inch of his throbbing erect cock grinding into her belly.
“Fuck, I need you,” Aria whispered, her voice husky with desire.Aria fumbled with his shirt as she dragged it over his head, exposing his broad chest. Damn, he is fucking ripped.She worked his belt, the metal clicking as she unbuckled it. She shoved his jeans and boxers to his ankles in one go and his cock sprang out, thick and veined, already leaking pre-cum at the tip.Holy moly fuck!Marcus was definitely nowhere close to the sheer size of this… this monstrous cock that was teasing her to take it into her mouth.“My turn,” he muttered as he yanked her tight dress over her hips and off in one swift motion, exposing her lace bra and matching thong. Her heavy tits strained against the fabric, her nipples poking through like hard pebbles. He snapped the clasp open, watching her breasts bounce free, then palmed them roughly, leaning in to capture one nipple in his mouth as his tongue lashed it relentlessly.Aria moaned, threading her fingers through his hair, holding him there as waves of pleasure shot straight to her core. She was soaked. Her pussy was aching and dripping into her thong.Pushing him to the bed, she dropped to her knees, her eyes locked on his as she gripped his cock and spat on the head. Then, she took him deep into her mouth, bobbing her head as she sucked from balls to tip. The man bucked, one hand gripping the bedpost while the other held her hair tight, guiding her rhythm.“Fuck, your mouth is so good," he rasped, watching her through half-lidded eyes. "You’re gonna make me blow if you keep that up."She worked him faster, hand twisting at the base until he pulled her off with a pop and a strained grunt. “Not yet. I need to taste you first.”He hurled her up and tossed her onto the king-sized bed like she weighed nothing. Then, he peeled off her thongs and spread her thighs wide, inhaling her sweet, musky scent before burying his face in her pussy.He licked her clit in firm drags before plunging his tongue inside hers, fucking in and out, and lapping up her juices that flowed out. "Ommmggg!!!" Aria's hands fisted the sheets, back bowing off the bed as she moaned loudly, the overwhelming sensation shooting through her.
He devoured her hungrily, sucking her folds and circling her nub, flicking it rapidly. His two fingers slid into her wetness, curling to hit that sensitive spot deep inside.Aria writhed under him, her breath coming in short pants. “Right there… don’t stop,” she begged, her body tensing as the pressure built. He added a third finger, pumping faster, the squelch of her wetness filling the air. His mouth never left her clit until she exploded, her orgasm crashing over her as she shuddered.Not giving her time to recover, he positioned himself between her legs, rubbing the head of his cock along her slit.“You ready for me?”“God yes,” Aria nodded eagerly, wrapping her legs around his waist.He thrust in slowly at first, inch by inch, groaning as she clenched around his length, until his balls were pressed against her ass. “Godddd… you are so fucking tight.”Oh fuck me!They moved together, hips snapping in a building rhythm. He pulled back and slammed in deep, angling to grind against her G-spot with each thrust. Aria met him too, her nails scratching down his back, leaving red trails. Sweat slicked their skin, the room filling with the wet sounds of flesh meeting flesh and their mingled gasps.
“Turn over! I want to see that ass bounce,” he growled, flipping her onto all fours.She arched her back, presenting her soaked pussy and the tight pucker above. He slapped her ass cheek, watching it turn red and jiggle. Then he gripped her hips and slammed back in. The new angle let him go deeper as his balls slapped against her clit with every plunge. She pushed back, fucking him as much as he fucked her, her breasts swaying with the force.“Harder!” she demanded, and he obeyed.One hand fisted her hair, pulling her head back to expose her neck, which he bit as his pace turned brutal. “Your pussy is so fucking tight… I-I’m gonna cum soon. Fuck!”Aria tensed as her second orgasm ripping through her, pussy spasming wildly around his shaft. That sent him over the edge as he buried himself deep and erupted, with some of the excess leaking out around his base as he kept thrusting through his release.They collapsed in a tangle of limbs, chests heaving. He gathered her close, kissing her forehead as they caught their breath.What the actual fuck!Aria couldn't believe it. That was the best sex she'd ever had, even in all the years she was with Marcus.
She nestled against the stranger, sated and drowsy, her head on his chest, listening to his heartbeat slow. Within minutes, exhaustion from the intensity pulled them under as they drifted off to sleep.
- - -The sunlight that cut through the cheap curtain burned her eyes. "Fuck, my head!" It hurt so bad. She had taken more shots than she ever had.Slowly, she sat up and looked over at the other side of the bed. It was empty. No note on the pillow either.Of course. What was she expecting?She remembered last night and her walls clenched on nothing. God, could that man fuck any better? She pulled out her phone from her purse. 22 missed calls from Lena. "Why is she calling so early?" Then she saw the time. 10:25 AM. Oh shit!She bolted to the shower, scrubbing her sticky thighs still slick with their mixed release. Next, she combed her dark waves frantically into a messy bun that wouldn’t hold. She re-wore her now-wrinkled black dress.“I’ll have to borrow a sweater from someone at the reception,” she murmured as she rushed out the front door.In the cab, she pressed her forehead to the cool window, her fist clenched in her laps. This was her one big shot she was fucking up. A 100% tuition-free York Graduate Scholarship for Lit Theory Masters at York University. She was one of the 10 students who were awarded the scholarship this year. Lena had pushed her to apply after Marcus’s bullshit. “Success is the best revenge, Ari. Do it.”She had a 4.0 GPA for her bachelors, and published an essay on feminist arcs in Victorian novels which went viral. Even the Dean had called her personally. “You’re a top talent from working-class roots. Don’t waste this privilege.”And here she was, late on the first day of class.The cab pulled up to the campus gate that had massive red bricks arched thick around it. Fresh-faced undergrads buzzed around with overstuffed backpacks and new-year dreams.“Keep the change,” she slammed the door and rushed down to class.She plucked her airpods in and Lena’s voicenote crackled: “Girl, don’t tell me you overslept. I hope you’re in class right now.” Aria kicked into sprint mode, her books clutched tight to her chest as her lungs burned sharp.Boom!A full body collision rocked her hard, her bag exploding open, notebooks and pens scattered across the path like white confetti.“Oh god, I’m so sorry… I’m super late—”Strong hands caught her elbows steady, preventing her from falling over. She looked up to see who she had hit. The blue eyes widened behind thin wire glasses. Black hair neatly combed now, his crisp navy suit hugging that exact muscular frame she knew too well from…No. Fucking. Way.Her jaw dropped, her eyes almost out of their sockets, as she stared in recognition. Her stranger from last night. What was he doing here? Aria tried to say something, but no words came out. At least, she wasn’t the only one dumbfounded. The man looked equally shocked and confused.But before either of them could find their voice, a student yelled from across the sunny quad, waving a paper. “Professor Anderson! Have you got the updated syllabus yet?”Her knees threatened to give way. There’s no way she heard right.Professor? Did she just fuck a Professor in her school?“Len, breath…” Aria stood in front of Toronto’s airport as Tyler and the Uber driver put their luggage in the car boot. “Count with me. One… two…three…”“I am breathing,” Lena snapped, then yelped. “I am not breathing—oh my God, Aria, I can’t do this.”Tyler touched her arms lightly to let her know they could get into the Uber now.“Okay, Len, listen to me,” Aria said as she climbed into the car. “You CAN do this. That baby needs her mother. You need your ba—”“Oh my god, stop talking!!!” Lena screamed into the phone, sharp and frantic enough to make Aria flinch. “Where the fuck are you?!”“We’re literally in the car rig—”“If you are not at the hospital in five minutes, our friendship is over.”Tyler, who had just entered, winced theatrically.Aria shot him a warning glare so fast he pressed his lips together, though the corner of his mouth still twitched.“Don’t you fucking laugh,” she mouthed at him.His eyes widened in mock surrender, and he slid a hand over her lower stomach, rub
“Hey,” Tyler murmured, tipping her face back up to look at him.His eyes were softer now, wet at the edges, a disbelieving smile starting at the corners of his mouth.“You just said the exact words I was going to say to you.”She blinked in surprise. “Wha—”Tyler didn’t let her finish as he crashed his lips against hers.At first, her eyes widened in disbelief… and then it fluttered closed and she immediately melted into it, hands curling into the front of his jacket.Her entire world narrowed down to the warm, familiar taste of him that always grounded her.To the way his lips moved against hers with a mix of urgency and reverence.To the way her body instantly remembered this, as if no time had passed at all.Every memory since the day they met folded into this one moment.When they finally broke apart, both of them were breathing hard.Tyler rested his forehead against hers, eyes closed for a second, like he needed to anchor himself.“I love you,” he said, voice low but sure. “I ne
No.It couldn’t be.Aria stopped mid-step, her boarding pass crinkling in her hand.Slowly, with her heart pounding so hard it hurt, she turned toward the voice… and her knees almost gave out.Tyler.He stood a few yards away with one suitcase by his side, chest heaving, eyes wide like he was trying to make sure she wasn’t a trick of his imagination.The exact same way as she was feeling too.For a second, neither of them moved.Then, he took a step forward. And another.Without thinking, she moved too.Both of them dodged a couple of travelers going about their day without losing sight of each other… until they stopped just inches apart.Aria couldn’t believe it. Her heart pounded against her ribs painfully.It was really him.“Why are you going to Lon—” Tyler started.“What are you doing in New Yor—” Aria blurted at the same time.They both stopped, then let out a shaky, nervous laughter.They stood there, grinning like idiots, still a little too stunned to find the right order for
The silence Dexter left behind was thick enough to press against the walls.The apartment was completely silent.But strangely, underneath the grief and guilt, there was a thin, fragile line of calm. One that felt like certainty.Her heart was racing, but her mind was steady in a way it had not been in months. And even though the situation was heartbreaking, it was also necessary.She could no longer keep living half-truths.Not anymore.So, that night, she packed her clothes, toiletries, chargers, and all the little things that made a place feel lived in, moving carefully, almost reverently, as if she were handling something fragile and sacred.Every so often, she would stop and breathe through the fact of what she was doing.This was insane.This was real.This was happening.But she refused to dwell too long on the shape of the decision, because if she did, fear might catch up with her and make her stop.So she kept moving, folding, zipping, stacking, until the suitcase stood by th
Aria headed back to the table and sat down carefully beside Dexter.He turned to her immediately, brows drawn. “Are you okay?”“Yeah.” She forced a small smile. “I’m fine.”His hand found her knee under the table, thumb brushing lightly. “You sure?”She swallowed, glancing across at Lena, who was watching her a little too closely. “I’m sure. Just… long line.”Lena’s mouth twitched, but she didn’t say anything.Aria drew in a slow breath and tried to root herself in the moment—the clink of cutlery, Mia’s voice as she told a story about a coworker, and Jade arguing with Dexter about whether New York pizza was overrated.She also focused on the warmth and safety of Dexter’s palm on her knee like it might anchor her.Even though a certain name whispered at the edges of her mind, she shoved it back and reached for her drink instead.Three days went by faster than she thought possible.They crammed as much of New York as they could into the girls’ visit… until finally, it was time for them
The next noon, Aria and Dexter took a taxi to the scheduled restaurant together, their fingers laced as they walked in.The girls were already seated when they arrived, and all three of them looked up at once with matching grins.“There they are,” Mia said.Lena stood first, smiling warmly as they approached. “Hi,” she gave Aria a quick hug before turning to Dexter. “Nice to finally meet you, Dexter.”He gave her a little polite but easy smile. “Likewise”Jade stood next, offering him a once-over that somehow managed to be both amused and approving. “Nice to meet you.”“Same.”Mia was last, and she hugged him like they’d known him for years. “So you’re the one,” she said with a teasing tilt of her head.Dexter laughed. “I hope that’s not ominous.”“It is,” Mia deadpanned, then burst out laughing.Aria shook her head, already smiling despite the nerves buzzing under her skin.Almost immediately, the girlfriend test began.The girls eased into questions with the smoothness of people who
Aria stared at him, the weight of his hopeful gaze pressing on her chest.It was as if Tyler knew he'd just put her on the spot. He saw it the second her eyes widened.“Whoa,” he said, hands coming up like he could catch the word back out of the air. “That… came out more intense than it sounded in
Aria arrived the apartment twenty minutes later, quietly kicking off her heels so as not to wake Lena up. She winced when one heel teetered and fell, the sound impossible loud in the quiet.Her black dress was in tatters, one side ripped from hem to hip, the other barely holding together with a saf
An hour later into the dinner.“I have to leave now,” Aria said, standing up. “Thank you again for tonight.”She folded her napkins on the table just like she had seen in a YouTube video the night before, gave a polite smile, and left the room.The room felt too quiet after Aria left. Jason could s
It was Aria and Lena's shift that evening.She stood behind the counter, breaking down a stack of cups, the cardboard edges rough against her fingers. Her phone buzzed in her apron pocket.She fished it out with one hand, her thumb swiping the screen clean of flour dust. The sender line made her s
