Chapter 1

The muffled sounds of a guy and a girl getting down and dirty buzzed in my ears.I caught a glimpse through the door crack—Henry Larson and his girlfriend tangled in a heated moment.Henry was like a wild, fearless creature, powerful and untamed.My cheeks burned with a mix of feelings I could not quite sort out. Part of me, the part that was all teenage curiosity and hormones, wondered if Henry had treated me the same way, would I be able to handle it? However, another part, the pure green-eyed monster, could not understand why Henry would choose her over me. I mean, I was pretty sure I had her beat in the looks department by a mile.Henry was the boy next door—literally—and the guy I had been crushing on for what felt like forever.With my parents out of town for a month, the idea of staying alone in our big, empty house freaked me out. So, naturally, I thought of asking Henry to come over for some company.And, okay, maybe I was hoping for a little more than just company.

Chapter 2

Just then, my bestie texted me, wanting to know if I had scored. I spilled the whole story to her, feeling pretty down, and asked her what I should do then.[Girl, based on what you told me, I'm pretty sure he's got a thing for you. You just haven't hit the right note yet. Remember that 'battle dress' I sent you? Slip into that and give it another shot. Guys are pretty simple; they think with their other head. I bet he won't be able to keep his calm when he sees you in that!]The so-called battle dress my bestie was talking about turned out to be a ridiculously skimpy dress, barely covering anything and leaving little to the imagination.She swore by it, claiming it was her secret weapon that never failed to enchant the guys she dated. She even bragged that her boyfriend could last seven rounds in a single night whenever she wore it.As soon as she found out about my crush on Henry, she did not waste a second and got me one just like hers.The dress felt a bit too bold and wild fo

Chapter 3

Henry chuckled with a mischievous glint in his eye. "Yasmin, were you off in dreamland again? Who's the hero in your dreams?"I blushed a deep shade of red, feeling like a tomato that had spent too much time in the sun. Henry was such a tease, always trying to get a rise out of me.Desperate to steer away from the topic, I shot back, "Henry, you've caught me in my birthday suit twice, and I haven't even caught a glimpse of you. Don't you think you owe me?""What kind of compensation are you thinking of?" Henry quirked an eyebrow, a playful challenge in his gaze.I nibbled on my lip, a little embarrassed. "I want to see you, too."I never thought Henry would go for it, but to my shock, he started peeling off his clothes.That was my first full-on view of Henry's physique, and it was way more up-close and personal than that morning's sneak peek.His chest was sculpted and strong, his abs chiseled into a perfect six-pack, and just below, where the V-lines converged, was... well…S

Chapter 4

I was swept up in a whirlwind of passion with Henry, and together we crafted a symphony of life, full of high notes and fervor.After our time together, I snuggled into Henry's arms, my fingers playfully drawing patterns on his chest."Henry, when did you start falling for me?"He pondered for a moment before answering, "It's been a while. I was waiting for you to grow up, but I have this... need. Before you, I could only fill the emptiness and loneliness inside me with other women."I felt a pang of sympathy. "Henry, now that you have me, I promise you won't have to feel that way again."He smiled, nodded, and with a swift move, he was on top of me once more. "My little temptress, let yourself drain me completely."So began another chapter of romance...The week that followed was filled with days and nights of ecstasy. Influenced by Henry, my body grew increasingly responsive.My desires intensified.However, it was not long before Henry started to leave early and come home l

Chapter 5

As I watched Wendy, looking wild and unhinged, I could not shake the feeling that she was not all there mentally.The hospital gown she wore was a dead giveaway. She could very well be a madwoman who had bolted from a psych ward.Trying to reason with a madwoman was a lost cause, I had to play her game."So, what's your grand plan?" I asked, locking eyes with her.Her face contorted with a twisted glee. "I'll carve up that pretty face of yours, then let these guys have their fun with you. After that, I doubt Henry will give a second glance to someone as messed up as you."I stared her down, my anger boiling over. "Have you lost your mind? You know this is a crime, right? You could end up behind bars. And for what? A jerk who's not even worth it?"Wendy let out a harsh, mocking snort. "To have Henry all to myself, I'm willing to risk it all."Her level of crazy was off the charts, she was head over heels for Henry in the worst way.I kept up the pretense of conversation while my

Chapter 6

Bushy beard must have caught on to my plan because he made sure I could not run by knocking me out cold with a swift chop to the neck.When I came to, I was back in that ramshackle hut, drowning in despair and fear like I was trapped in hell itself.To keep things from getting messy, they ditched the livestream and decided to videotape it instead.A gang of muscle-bound brutes were there, stripped down and reaching for me with their greedy hands, inching closer.I huddled up, terrified, pressing myself into a corner.Wendy was there too, smirking at her phone screen. "Go on, don't hold back on her. I want her to learn her lesson for trying to snatch my guy."The scar-faced guy chuckled creepily, licking his lips, "We've been itching to get started."They were just about to rip my clothes off."Stop." A voice I knew all too well cut through the chaos.My eyes snapped open—it was Henry.Was he there as my knight in shining armor? Or was he just another spectator, eager to join

Chapter 7

I did not want to worry my parents, so I kept them in the dark. My bestie was the one who stuck by my side in the hospital.I knew Henry was hurt way worse than me. When I woke up, I could not stop myself from asking, "How's Henry doing?"My bestie huffed, "This is all his fault, and you're worried about him?"I bit my lip, thinking about it. "He got hurt trying to save me. He's been my neighbor forever. If something happened to him, I couldn't face his folks."That's when she told me Henry had a broken hand and was still in the hospital, but the rest was just cuts and bruises. He would be okay.That news eased my mind. No life-threatening stuff, thank goodness.To be honest, seeing Henry all battered and bloody that day really freaked me out.My own scrapes and bruises were nothing serious, and after the docs patched me up and handed me some meds, I was good to go.However, there was Henry, waiting for me outside the hospital. He looked so guilty, his eyes downcast."Yasmin,
