DEREK’S P.O.V.

I was mesmerized as I stood at the bar, watching Charlotte dance.

For the first time since I met her, she was completely carefree. There wasn’t a single ounce of stress or fear in her body, and I couldn’t take my eyes off her.

With each sway of her hips, I was sucked in further, hypnotized by her.

I had the feeling she knew it, too.

Every few minutes, her eyes would sweep over the bar, only stopping when they landed on me, and she would send me a mischievous smile before she w

  • The Accidental Almost Kiss with my Ex's Uncle   One Hundred One

    CHARLOTTE’S P.O.V.My heart dropped, and my hand tightened around the phone as my other reached for the counter, needing to steady myself. Derek rushed to my side, looking like he wanted to reach for me, but he held himself back, giving me space. I was grateful for it because for a moment, the room began to spin around me, and holding onto the counter was the only thing grounding me. It felt like minutes had passed before the nurse spoke again, when I knew it hadn’t been.“Your mother regained consciousness about twenty minutes ago.” She said, and my breath caught in my throat. “She, what?” I asked, choking on a sob, completely frozen. It felt like if I moved, the illusion would shatter and she would tell me I had misheard her. The nurse repeated herself, but it still hadn’t sunk in.“Charlotte, what happened?” Derek asked softly from next to me, but as I turned to him, everything was blurry. It took me a moment to realize that it was because of the tears filling my eyes.“Ms. V

  • The Accidental Almost Kiss with my Ex's Uncle   One-Hundred

    CHARLOTTE’S P.O.V.I loved the giddy feeling I had as I snuck downstairs, wearing Derek’s shirt. I probably should have grabbed a clean one, but dear God, that man smelled incredible, and I loved pulling on his button-up shirt and smelling his cologne. Plus, I left the front halfway unbuttoned to make sure he got a show with his breakfast. Being with him was so empowering that, as I stepped onto the cold kitchen tile with my bare feet, it sent a thrill through me. I wanted him to wake up and find me. We hadn’t explored anything in the kitchen yet, even though I did drag him into his office last night to use his desk. I wanted to make sure that the next time he was pulling an all-nighter, he had something pleasant to remember, and it had been pleasant. As I walked around the kitchen and began to cook, I found myself humming, wiggling my hips and twisting as I danced to the tune in my head. “Hm,” a low hum sounded from the doorway as I finished whisking the eggs, and I glanced ove

  • The Accidental Almost Kiss with my Ex's Uncle   Ninety-Nine

    PAUL’S P.O.V.Setting my fork down beside my plate on the patio table, I sat back in my chair, looking over my barren backyard. I knew I would need to tackle that project next now that I finished repairing the inside, but I wasn’t ready. Once I finished that, the house would be ready to sell. Flipping a house had always been on my bucket list, but I hadn’t expected it to take this long. Work had kept me incredibly busy, and I was only able to work on the house for a few hours each week. Once the backyard was done… there would be nothing keeping me here. This was a house, but it wasn’t my home.Maybe it was because I had never bothered to decorate it, but it had always felt like it was missing something. It was just four walls and a roof over my head for me to sleep in each night, nothing more. I could sell it, take the profit, and move back home to be closer to my family, but just thinking that made the idea of working on the backyard unbearable. They had all been violently oppos

  • The Accidental Almost Kiss with my Ex's Uncle   Ninety-Eight

    LYDIA’S P.O.V.Family birthday parties had never been my favorite events to go to, but there were only so many I could miss before I got yelled at for 'not acting like a part of the family.' I had never been close with any of them, but gave in and showed up with a present and food anyway.Yet, as I helped clean up at the end, I was ready to snap. I couldn’t take another comment or joke about being the spinster of the family. All of my cousins had at least four kids each, and I had four restaurants. They had husbands, wives, and planned annual family vacations, and I had an empty home and a to-do list longer than their grocery receipt. As I looked up at the kids running around while the adults cleaned up, it all felt so normal. Like it was what I should have been doing at my age, but none of it had felt right for me until recently.I had been so focused on my career that I hadn’t been interested in the idea of settling down and popping out a few crotch-goblins. Even if the thoug

  • The Accidental Almost Kiss with my Ex's Uncle   Ninety-Seven

    CHARLOTTE’S P.O.V.Sliding off the edge or the bed, I swayed my hips as I walked toward the bathroom door, looking over my shoulder at him with one eyebrow raised, waiting for him to take my challenge. “Coming?” I asked, but he didn’t answer. Instead, he stood and followed after me, his eyes locked on my face, but I was shamelessly admiring him and could see that he was enjoying this. Turning to walk into the bathroom, I laughed as he rushed forward and wrapped his arms around me from behind, urging me toward the shower. I twisted in his hold to face him, and his hands slid down to my ass, quickly lifting me. I let out a small moan as I wrapped my legs around him, each step making him move against me. He didn’t stop though and walked us right into the shower, closing the door behind us and pressing my back against the cold tiles as he reached up to turn the shower head away from us and turned on the water. “Derek!” I cried out with a giggle as my back arched into him to get it o

  • The Accidental Almost Kiss with my Ex's Uncle   Ninety-Six

    CHARLOTTE’S P.O.V.The slow rise and fall of the warm surface beneath me gently lulled me awake, and I sighed as I felt Derek’s arm wrapped around my back, holding me to his chest. The birds were chirping outside, and I slowly opened my eyes to see the warm glow of the sun behind the curtains. Tilting my head back, I stared up at his rugged face. The scrub on his beard was still short, but it had been so delicious as it scraped along my body as he kissed every inch of me.His hair was disheveled, and I smiled, remembering all the times my fingers had run through them last night.Somehow, Derek was even more handsome while asleep, and I closed my eyes as I listened to his calm heartbeat beneath my ear. “Good morning,” He said, his voice thick with sleep, and my eyes fluttered open as he brushed my hair back behind my ear. “Morning,” I whispered, scared to destroy the peace of the morning by speaking too loudly. It was the most peaceful night and waking I’d had in a very long time,

    CHARLOTTE’S P.O.V. I wanted to set it on fire. It took me a moment to collect myself before I rushed outside to the car and yanked the door open. I could hear Justin laughing behind me in the kitchen, but the sound just grated on my nerves. I didn’t want to find anything, but with my camera rec

    CHARLOTTE’S P.O.V.I woke up with a pounding headache that was only made worse by my phone ringing. My hand slid across the bed as I searched for it, but I froze as I touched a warm, hard chest instead.A flash of dark green eyes and a devilish grin popped into my mind, and I tensed as I tried to r

    CHARLOTTE’S P.O.V. Lydia grumbled under her breath as she shoved the hotel keycard into the slot for the third time. The light flashed red again, and I groaned, stumbling to the side a few steps before regaining my footing. We had been at the club all night, and there was no way I wanted to retur

    CHARLOTTE’S P.O.V"Ms. Valente, the divorce papers you requested will be ready within a week."I forced a tight-lipped smile to my lawyer, nodding my head as I stood. “I look forward to it. Thank you,” I said, pulling on my coat at the door, feeling my phone vibrating in the pocket. My best frien
