LOGINLena’s POV After a long silence, I finally turned my head to look at Kendra. The air in the room felt heavy, charged with the weight of the things we usually left unsaid."Kendra," I started, my voice barely a whisper. I turned to look at her, needing to bridge the distance between us. "Say something. Anything about what just happened."Kendra leaned her head back against the wood, her expression uncharacteristically soft, shedding the polished, untouchable mask she wore for the rest of the world. She looked at me, really looked at me, and let out a long, shuddering sigh. "I think... I think I've realized something, Lena. Something I've been burying for a long time, or perhaps something I was just too afraid to put into words."I waited, my heart drumming against my ribs. I knew my own secrets—the dangerous pull of Adrian, the way his presence made my own life feel like a house of cards—but I hadn't realized that Kendra had been battling her own internal storm."I’m into girls, too,"
Lena’s POV The sex had been intense.I lay on the bed, breathing heavily, my body still tingling from the powerful orgasm Adrian had given me. He collapsed beside me, pulling me into his arms, his chest rising and falling rapidly. For a few minutes, we just lay there in silence, our bodies pressed close, the room filled with the scent of sweat and sex.I enjoyed every second of it. The way he touched me. The way he claimed me. The way he made me feel wanted.But as the high faded, the guilt from the encounter with Richard crept back in.Adrian kissed my forehead and sat up. “I have to start packing. The flight is in a few hours.”I nodded and helped him pack. I folded his clothes neatly, placing them in the suitcase while he gathered his documents and laptop. We worked in comfortable silence, but my mind was elsewhere.When we were done, he pulled me into a deep kiss.“I’ll miss you,” he murmured against my lips. “Text me when you get home.”His driver took me back to my place. I wav
Adrian’s POVI woke up slowly, the morning light filtering through the penthouse windows. The bed felt empty without Lena beside me. I reached for my phone on the nightstand and saw a missed call from one of my business partners. I called him back immediately.“Adrian,” he said, voice urgent. “We have a situation in Dubai. The deal is falling apart. I need you here as soon as possible.”I rubbed my eyes, already feeling the weight of the day. “I’ll be on the next flight. Send me the details.”I ended the call and sighed. I had hoped to spend the day with Lena. Instead, I was heading to the airport again.I dialed her number.“Hey, baby,” I said when she answered. “Can you come over to my place? I miss you. I thought we’d have time together today, but something came up.”She agreed, and I smiled despite the frustration. “Good. I’ll see you soon.”I went to the kitchen and made myself a strong cup of coffee, the rich aroma filling the space. I sat at the island with my laptop, going thr
Lena’s POV I finally made it home after the last delivery, my legs aching from riding around all evening. The apartment was quiet when I stepped inside. Cleo was already fast asleep on the couch, one leg hanging off the side, his breathing soft and steady. I smiled softly and draped a blanket over him, tucking it gently around his small frame. He looked so peaceful. So innocent.I headed to the kitchen and quickly prepared something simple for myself — leftover rice and some fried plantain. I ate standing up, barely tasting the food, my mind still replaying the confusing encounter with Richard. The way his fingers had brushed my skin. The way he had looked at me. The things he had said.I shook my head, trying to push the thoughts away, and headed to the bathroom for a quick shower. The hot water felt good on my tired muscles. I stood under the stream for a long time, letting it wash away the day — the deliveries, the strange tension with Richard, the constant pull of Adrian’s world.
Lena’s POV I pushed the door open and stepped inside.My heart skipped when I saw who placed the order.Richard stood in the middle of the spacious living room, dressed in a casual but expensive black shirt with the sleeves rolled up. He looked up from his phone with a slow, surprised smile that sent a confusing flutter through my chest.“Lena,” he said, voice smooth and warm. “What a pleasant surprise. I didn’t expect you to be the one delivering tonight.”I stood there frozen for a second, the delivery bag suddenly feeling heavy in my hands. The apartment was luxurious — modern furniture, floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the city, soft lighting that made everything feel intimate. I hadn’t realized this was one of the Vanguard family properties.“I… I didn’t know it was you,” I said, my voice a little unsteady. “Here’s your order, sir.”I walked over and handed him the bag, careful to keep some distance. But Richard stepped closer as he took it, his fingers brushing against min
Lena’s POVI looked at my reflection in the mirror, pulling on my old delivery jacket. It felt a little stiff, but it still smelled like the city—exhaust fumes and street food. I zipped it up, checked my hair in the ponytail, and smoothed my jeans. My hands were shaking just a little. I took a deep breath, trying to calm the nervous energy in my chest. Everything had been so complicated lately—the secret messages from Adrian, the heavy feeling of his family’s expectations, and the memory of Richard’s eyes on me. I needed to move. I needed to feel like me again, not just a girl waiting for a call.I walked into where my little brother was. Cleo was sprawled on the couch, his eyes glued to the cartoons on TV.“Back to work?” he asked, not looking away from the screen.I walked over and ruffled his hair. “Just for a bit. I need to keep my head busy. Dinner is in the fridge. Don’t stay up too late, okay?”He gave me a thumbs-up. “Be safe, Lena.”I grabbed my helmet and the heavy insulated
Lena’s POV 🌸I was still in my small kitchen, wiping the counter when my phone rang. Adrian’s name flashed on the screen. My heart did that familiar little flip.“Hey,” I answered softly.“What’s your day looking like, baby?” His voice was deep, smooth, and commanding even over the phone.“It’s a
Lena’s POV 🌸I couldn’t sit still.The lecture was passing right over my head. The lecturer’s voice faded into background noise while my mind kept replaying every filthy moment I’d spent with Adrian. My pussy throbbed under my desk. I was soaked, aching, and shamefully distracted.I pulled out my

Lena’s POV 🌸I woke up sore, sticky, and aching in the best and worst ways possible.My thighs trembled as I shifted in Adrian’s enormous bed. My pussy felt swollen and tender, still leaking traces of him. Every tiny movement sent a dull throb through me — a constant reminder of how many times he
