My One-night-stand Alpha 32 — Next-door neighbors…?
“What?” I say out loud, then cover my mouth for almost shouting, and feel my face heat up. My cheeks are probably red as my hair.Jasper takes a few moments to understand what he's said, and his eyes widen slightly… wait, is he getting flushed…?“No, not like that.” He says quickly, swinging the key, “I want you to have my room.”“Oh…” I give a silly laugh, lowering my hand slightly, secretly amused at the way Jasper looks away and seems unable to look at me at the moment. “But you're with Bryan, aren't you? And even if you weren't, girls can't stay in the boys' room.”He finally looks back at me and puts a smug smile on his lips. “This one is exclusive, Reddy. I rented it with my own money, there's no one to share it with.”I look at the key he keeps dangling, picking it up fearfully, leaving it in my open palms… and bite my lip, unsure of what to do.When they started to sign the groups, and Alice's name was placed in room 1B, I get an extreme relief. However, my turn came, and does
My One-night-stand Alpha 33 — “Who I really want.”
Amber is approaching quickly, and when she notices me, her expression closes. Only then I realize that Jasper's hands are still on my arms, and he's holding me close to his body.What is she doing here?And why are they both out here so late…?I put my palms on his chest to discreetly push him away, but he doesn't move a single muscle. Biting the inside of my cheek, I feel a bitterness rise in my throat… I'm clearly in the way of something.Jasper's eyes are on me, even though Amber is standing next to him, looking directly into his face with eyes that shine like this starry sky. It makes my stomach twist.“I knew it was you… I wouldn't be able to mistake you for anyone else.” Amber touches his arm, entwining her fingers around the muscle in his arm, exposed by the t-shirt. And her eyes go to his hand on my skin.“What are you doing here, Amber?” Jasper rests his eyes on her, pulling his arm free of her touch, but keeping one of his hands on me.“Your team will be participating in the
My One-night-stand Alpha 34 — Something wrong with me
The intensity of Jasper's gaze makes me hold my breath. At this point, I feel like I could do anything he wishes, but… Footsteps in the hallway give me a jolt. Familiar male voices make us both widen our eyes slightly because, jeez… aren't those the teachers?I turn the knob sharply, opening the door, which makes me stag backwards into the room and tumble to the floor. Jasper also loses his balance and falls right on top of me, backing his weight on his arms to not hurt me.But the voices are getting louder and louder….“The door…” I mutter low, pointing desperately with my head, “Close the door!”Jasper uses his leg to push the door shut with a loud thud. The voices pause for a moment, but soon they're talking again, passing by the room, completely oblivious to our fall.I breathe a sigh of relief, throwing my head back, closing my eyes while I slide my elbows across the floor and lean my back on the soft carpet. But relief doesn't last long, as I quickly realize that Jasper is still
My One-night-stand Alpha 35 — Proud of myself
The first stage of the math contest has finally begun. With a quick glance, I can count at least a hundred candidates… a considerable number that will surely be whittled down today.According to the schedule Mr. Thompson handed out to us, this is an elimination stage. We'll be taking a twenty-question test with complex equations within an hour. Anyone who doesn't finish in time or get the minimal grade to pass will not qualify for the next round. Each question is worth five points, and it's needed at least 80.In other words, if you get more than four questions wrong… you're out.And I have to admit that this makes me a bit anxious.We're separated into four groups to take the tests. I'm in Group B, while Kevin is in Group C. The groups were drawn, so there's not much to be done.I wave at him with my hand and walk to my room, drying my hand on the sides of my pants that seem tighter than usual. Imagine my surprise when I noticed that all the clothes I packed had been replaced by othe
My One-night-stand Alpha 36 — JASPER ROOSEVELT (POV)
As expected, sharing a room with Bryan is like spending time in hell. I didn't sleep very well because of his hostility, and also because my mind kept going back to the last kiss with Scarlett.Her smell has been getting sweeter. It doesn't seem like it's changed, but still, there's something different. It's hard to explain, and even harder to resist.I close the locker with a single hand and start to straighten my team shirt, when I notice that Bryan already finished putting his uniform and is setting a wristband on his right arm now…Nathan approaches and wraps his arms around Bryan's neck, saying with a proud tone, “Here we go, the lucky wristband!”Lucky wristband?I furrow my brows and this simple reaction catches Nathan's eyes, who flashes a mischievous grin, as if he's had a wicked idea. Even though they're best friends, sometimes I feel like Nathan is ready to throw him into the fire when necessary for his own entertainment.And my perception doesn't fail because Nathan soon s
My One-night-stand Alpha 37 — A real kiss
When the game ended, our team won easily, with a great score of 34 for our college compared to 7 for our opponent. I couldn't stop cheering loudly because Jasper scored most of the points. He really gave his best in that game, and although Bryan made the first baskets, he was soon overshadowed.And while I'm celebrating with the other people in the bleachers, who are also won over our team's performance, Jasper's eyes stop on mine. Even though we're far apart, and he's still retreating from the court with the other players, he's holding my gaze so intently that it completely steals the air from my lungs.This makes me feel funny, and makes me stand up abruptly, attracting Kevin's attention… “What happened?”“I need to… go to the bathroom.” I force a smile, “Actually, I think I'll head back to the Hotel first… I'm not comfortable with, um… public restrooms.”Oh, dear.Kevin's expression is confused, but I just ignore it and, before I get down from the bleachers, I notice that Jasper is
My One-night-stand Alpha 38 — How could this be wrong?
“What's the meaning of this?” Bryan's voice comes out loud again, almost accusing. It makes me slightly uncomfortable, after all, he sounds like I'm doing something wrong.But what could be wrong? As far as I know, Jasper is single — and so am I. So how could this be wrong?“Are you really with this guy?” Bryan asks loudly, his voice obviously shaking, and his hands clenched into fists.I frown.“You can't be with this guy, Scarlett.”Bryan starts walking towards us quickly and, on a protective impulse, Jasper disentangles himself from the wall and puts my body behind his, putting himself in front of me and releasing my waist.“And why she can't?” Jasper asks with a serious tone.“You're not right for her.” Bryan says with his voice filled with hurt, and even if he disguised the tone of his voice, it could still be seen all over his face.“And who's the right guy for her? You?” Jasper asks sarcastically, making Bryan's eyes get even sharper. “The boyfriend who kissed another girl in f
My One-night-stand Alpha 39 — “I'm hurt, Reddy”
Jasper obeys, sitting down on the bed… I can't quite read his expression, but when I kneel exactly in front of him and fit between his spread legs, I notice his breathing gets heavier. He's staring at me intently, watching my movements… I know this because my skin is heating up under his gaze.But I ignore it and open the first-aid kit, reaching for a gauze and antiseptic… When I look at him again, I can't help but hold my breath, holding on his thigh, feeling the stiffness of his muscle against my palm. I try to push the thoughts away, and get myself up to his height; Jasper is so big that, even sitting down, I struggle to get at his size.I lean towards him, and he moves forward slightly too, to the point where our breaths become one. His eyes are on my lips and his breathing is becoming more and more hard… When Jasper slowly raises his gaze again, I feel like I might melt.“Why are you looking at me like that?” I force myself to ask, pushing him by the shoulder slightly to add dis
