Surrendering to my Best Friend's Dad Chapter 11 : Ecstasy
“Let me show you how much I care for you, Lexie," Noland murmurs against my lips, his hands beginning to roam over my body with a tantalizing mixture of tenderness and possessiveness that sends shivers down my spine.I nod my consent, unable to resist the magnetic pull between us any longer, and Noland slowly undresses me with reverent hands. The cool air of the room mingled with the heat of his touch, heightening my anticipation.Noland kisses me with a hunger that threatens to consume us both, his hands tangling in my hair to hold me in place. I cling to him, lost in the dizzying rush of sensations—the taste of him, the scent of his skin, the firmness of his body against mine.He tears his mouth from mine, trailing hot, open-mouthed kisses along my jaw. "Tell me what you want," he rasps against my ear, nipping at the lobe.I gasp, desire coiling tight within me, but I can’t form the words to speak. He then nibbles my lobe and now I feel myself tremble, shaken by the way he seems
Surrendering to my Best Friend's Dad Chapter 12 : Too Close and Personal
*Noland’s POV*The sun pours through the floor-to-ceiling windows of my office, casting a golden glow on the polished mahogany desk. I take a sip of my steaming espresso and let out a sigh, feeling the caffeine rush through my veins. Just as I'm about to get back to the paperwork in front of me, the door swings open, revealing Avery in her impeccably tailored suit that hugs her curves just right.We work at the same building, but we had agreed on a monthly meeting to update each other. Lately, she has been strolling into my office once or twice a week. The first couple of times were understandable, she asked about some new properties in the business district, and we both wanted to make sure we got them before anyone else; we had clients waiting to buy them.But as time went by, and so did the weeks, she started to come just to talk and check on me. The last time she came was only four days ago, and there was no need for another update when I still had to close purchases before we de
Surrendering to my Best Friend's Dad Chapter 13 : Jealousy
*Lexie’s POV*The warm glow of candlelight flickers against the luxurious drapes that envelop the private area of the club, casting shadows that dance to the rhythm of the live band's sultry tunes. My gaze drifts from the sparkling chandeliers above to the glass of wine cradled in my fingertips. The rich crimson liquid swirls lazily, mirroring the turmoil within me.Although we have been here at this club for over an hour, I just can’t stop thinking about how out of place I feel here. The people are dressed to kill, with elegant clothes and fancy shoes, and although Natasha lent me a sexy outfit to wear while we are here, I just feel like a fish out of its bowl.Then I let my mind drift to the earlier hours, and how I can't help but think about Noland and the way his eyes burned into mine earlier today, like a moth drawn to a flame."Lexie, meet Tristan," Natasha's voice cuts through my thoughts, drawing me back to the present moment. She introduces me to the man beside her, whos
Surrendering to my Best Friend's Dad Chapter 14 : Manipulation
Without a doubt, this is one of my favorite things from Santa Barbara; the sun as it creeps through the curtains, casting a warm glow across my face when I stir awake.I blink groggily, trying to focus on the ornate ceiling above me. After a while, I finally get up and head to Natasha’s door, knocking gently on it. There is no answer, and I realize that she isn't in the room.There is so much silence, it makes me uneasy. I focus all my attention into every sound around me, but the more I listen, the more convinced I am that I am completely alone. There is no music, no voices, no whispers. I feel like I was left abandoned in a castle.My phone buzzes with a message from her, explaining that she has left early for her show and will pick me up after lunch. The emptiness of the house presses down on me, leaving an unsettling feeling in the pit of my stomach."Miss Montgomery, breakfast is ready," a voice calls softly from the door. I quickly go back to my room to get another outfit on
Surrendering to my Best Friend's Dad Chapter 15 : The Game
The sun is setting, casting a warm glow over the opulent Santa Barbara streets as I stand outside my apartment building, waiting for Natasha to pick me up. The evening breeze blows gently through my auburn curls, and I can't help but feel a flutter of excitement for the fashion show we are about to attend."Lexie!" a familiar voice calls out, catching me off guard. My heart skips a beat when I see Tristan's car pull up instead of Natasha's."Tristan? What are you doing here?" I ask, surprised."Natasha got caught up with some last-minute preparations, so she sent me to pick you up," he explains, flashing a charming smile. He whistles playfully as he takes in my appearance. "Wow, Lexie, you look stunning.""Thanks," I say, trying to suppress a blush as I climb into his car."I don't get why Natasha is so worried about this fashion show," Tristan ponders aloud. "She has an even bigger one coming up in a month.""Natasha always pushes herself to be the best," I explain, feeling prot
Surrendering to my Best Friend's Dad Chapter 16 : Life is never that simple
*Lexie’s POV*For the first time in weeks, my thoughts are untroubled by Noland's intense gaze, his brooding presence. He's away for some days, and though I'd never admit it aloud, I'm grateful for the reprieve. My heart has been a tempestuous storm ever since he entered my life, and I desperately need to find my way back to still waters."Lexie!" Natasha's voice, bright and full of energy, shatters the peace as she bursts into my room. "You won't believe who I invited over today!""Who?" I ask, pushing myself up on my elbows, my curiosity piqued."Tristan and Robert," she says, her eyes shining with excitement. "I've got a massive crush on Robert, and I need your help to make sure I don't mess this up."I already had an idea of this before, the way that Robert would whisper things in her ear, and how she would blush and giggle at his comments. I am happy, I like Robert, he seems to be a very good person for Natasha."Of course, Tasha," I reply, smiling at her enthusiasm. "I'll b
Surrendering to my Best Friend's Dad Chapter 17 : I want to sin with you
*Lexie’s POV*Noland's imposing figure fills the doorway of his study room, his deep blue eyes flickering with a mix of irritation and surprise as he observes us both waiting for him. I can't help but feel my heart skip a beat as he steps into the room, a powerful energy emanating from him. Natasha is furious, her voice shrill as she demands to know why his security had kicked out her friends last night."Natasha, I didn't even know there was a party going on," Noland says with a calm that does little to soothe her anger."Really, Dad? You just happened to have your security team kick everyone out at the exact same time you arrived back in town?" Natasha spits out, her statuesque frame trembling with indignation.I watch the scene unfold in silence, taken aback by the intensity of Natasha's emotions. It's unlike her to be so confrontational, especially with her father. But there's something about the way Noland speaks, a subtle hesitation in his tone that makes me believe he's not
Surrendering to my Best Friend's Dad Chapter 18 : Unwanted Visitor
*Lexie’s POV*I wake up in Noland's arms, a strange mix of fear and comfort surging through me. His chest rises and falls gently, the rhythmic beating of his heart beneath my ear both soothing and unsettling. At this moment, he seems almost vulnerable, a stark contrast to the powerful, dominant man I've come to know.As I lay there, unable to tear my eyes away from his sleeping face, I can't shake the feeling that what we're doing is catastrophically wrong. Yet, I can't deny the magnetic pull I feel towards him – an attraction that goes beyond physical desire; I feel like he understands me, knows me, and cares for me more than I care for my own safety. And it terrifies me.Suddenly, the sound of shattering glass somewhere near us echoes, yanking me out of my thoughts. Noland's eyes flash open, a protective edge to them as they dart between me and the door. We both tense up, our hearts pounding in unison."Are you alright?" His voice is low and urgent, filled with genuine concern fo
