NOLAN It was a little hard to pull away from her since she held onto my shoulder as we kissed. With the way we stood, any onlooker would think Evelyn was the one who initiated the kiss. For some reason I couldn't explain, Robbie asking Eve out in my presence had pissed the fuck out of me. Because of that, I decided to act like a bad boy to her only to see how she would react. When I kissed Evelyn, my mind went mostly blank, and all I could think of was her. I could feel her breath on my face as our tongues fought for dominance. Amidst everything, what surprised me the most was that Evelyn kissed me back. The funniest thing was that I hadn't actually planned on kissing Evelyn today. Or anytime in the future. My hands left her waist and went a little lower. Well, not for long, because Evelyn pushed me away and turned her face away from me. “I can't breathe,” Eve said, drying her lips with the back of her palm.It felt wrong that the kiss didn't last long. Now that the kiss was over
EVELYNNolan.I could still taste him in my mouth. The kiss was surprisingly pleasant and I am angry at myself for not hating it fully. Why did I kiss him back? I should've kicked him to the curbs and let him taste my wrath but instead, I let him claim my mouth. Maybe I was more drunk than I thought I was. Oh well, I should just forget about it. One week later, my family arranged a picnic like they do every year around this time. Most of the time, it's at the lake where they bought a beach house. It wasn't anything formal. Just me, my parents and some close family members. Which means Jessica would be there and I'd have the chance to interrogate her about Nolan. What the fuck was she thinking hanging out with that douche?Whatever, there was no point in regretting things now. In the morning, I put on my bathing suit under my summer dress and headed to the lake."Evelyn! Sweetheart. Glad you are here. You can help me with the set up," my chirped as I walked toward the picnic table.
NOLANEvelyn didn't move as I had my hand on her shoulder, my thumb lightly stroking her collarbone. Her eyes were fixated on mine. They were missing their usual coolness. Was she warming up to me?I sure hope so.I had planned only to tease her. Pretend to kiss her, then move away, leaving her hungry for more. Then I walk away like a champion, so she felt like a fool. But in the end, I lost control of myself.She flinched but didn't push me away when our lips fused. When my tongue met hers, she moaned against my mouth, then pressed her hips against mine. She made noise as if to complain but kept kissing me. She jerked a little when I placed my hand between her thighs but didn't try to stop me. She was being good, letting me do what I wanted."Mm...Nolan," she mumbled against my lips and looked at me half-lidded.My lips traveled to her shoulders, then to her collarbone. I pushed the straps of her dress halfway down, which seemed to break her out of her trance. "St...stop!" Evelyn cri
EVELYNI felt a shiver run through my spine as Nolan placed his hand on my shoulder, and stroking my collarbone only made it worse. I stared into his bright blue orbs feeling unable to move.What are you doing Evelyn? You should be kicking his ass for touching you right now. I felt trapped in the spot I was and my eyes flickered to his lips as he moved closer to me. I gulped nervously and before I could blink, he pressed his lips against mine. I tried not to show that it affected me, but I ended up moaning and I moved my hips against his. It wasn't sloppy or overly wet, it was unexpectedly pleasant and I felt a tugging of desire in my lower belly.What am I doing Eve?! I need to stop this. I wanted to protest but ended up giving in again. I didn't expect it when Nolan placed his hand between my thighs, causing me to moan. I have to stop this. "Mm...Nolan," I mumbled as his lips traveled to my shoulders and he began to push down the straps of my dress. "Evelyn, Evelyn?"I blinked,
A fake smile is plastered on my face as I stare at the man in front of me.His name is David Rowland, and he is the producer of the upcoming film, "Love Me Harder." And right now, I am trying to concentrate on our mindless conversation, trying my best to look animated."You know you have the perfect bone structure and the body of an actor. Have you thought about being in the show business?" David says and looks me up and down. His eyes linger on my breasts a little too long, and I have the sudden urge to throw my expensive wine at his smirking face.But I couldn't do that. I was here for a purpose, and it was to impress this man."I'm more of a businesswoman," I say and force a smile."Oh? What kind of business?""Well...I..." I stop midway as I spot a tall figure in my peripheral vision. My heart stopped as I looked at the lean, hard body in an e
Nolan."Have the statistics department send every single detail right now." I hissed and cut the call, dropping my phone carelessly on the empty car seat.A frown spread across my face as I recalled the incident with Evelyn.I wiped my lips subconsciously as I remembered kissing her.I cringed at the warm feeling in my heart.I can't possibly like the kiss with Eve! I just did it to prove a point and that's it!She's a daring and competitive woman who would go to any lengths to get what she wants. Our first meeting was at a charity event in Carnegie Hills and I found her so annoying.I looked up as the car slowly came to a halt and the door by my side was opened by my Valet.What's his name again?I acknowledged him with a quick nod, climbing down from the car, a white Aston Martin and I w
EVELYNI knew men like him, men who had everything at their disposal and would still demand for more. Handsome, young, intelligent and wealthy—no better recipe for making arrogant twats.He was born in wealth, pampered from birth and groomed to be the heartless CEO he was today. He never lacked anything, from love to respect, to fame—he had everything and more.One didn't even have to dig deep to know pretty much everything about Nolan Walter. There was always so much hype around Nolan that it never failed to make me cringe whenever I heard people talk about the ‘young golden business mogul’.I wasn't raised that way. My parents had always been wealthy but they didn't exactly make things easy on me. I had always been told that I had to be more this, I had to be more that.Yeah, Nolan and I both had the responsibility of running ou
NolanWhat a joke!That woman. That infuriating, arrogant woman thinks she can outrank me. Oh please...I would like to see her try!I went home with a bad taste in my mouth as I recalled the event that happened back at the restaurant. She may have won this round, but I will be ahead of the game next time.You just watch Evelyn Bennett!Things weren't always this bitter between us. I first met her at a charity auction hosted by my friend Frank Duncan Jr. He was one of the city's well-known artists at the time, and I was there to support him. Frank introduced me to Evelyn, thinking we were the perfect match."This is Evelyn Bennett. She is the daughter of a great client of mine," Frank had said.I looked her up and down. She was tall, slender with long legs that went on forever. There was a spark in her big brown eyes that intrigued me. She
