Kiara’s POV
“See anyone who tickles your fancy?” Maya shouts over the music, passing me another shot.
I take it in one go, wincing as it burns down. “I told you I’m not doing that. I’m not sleeping with a stranger. I don’t feel anything for…”
The words are barely out before my eyes lock onto a shadow behind her.
Kade.
Maya’s brother. My personal plague. My walking migraine.
Six-five, leather jacket, tattoos peeking from everywhere, built like he was chiseled by a vindictive god determined to ruin my life.
And of course, my stupid body notices all of it.
We maintain eye contact for a few minutes but I look away first. Pathetic.
“What are you doing here, Maya?” he says, but it feels like he’s talking through her and right at me.
Maya’s face drains. She mutters a curse, turns slowly. “Hey, Kade… I didn’t think you’d be here. I was just—”
“Leaving. Now.”
He doesn’t raise his voice. He doesn’t need to.
“It’s not the 1900s,” I mutter loudly enough for him to hear, reaching for another drink.
Maya shoots me a frantic shut up gesture.
Sorry, girl. I physically cannot shut up around this man. Something about him flips a switch in me—the fight switch
And the worst part? He hates me more. Every time Maya and I got into trouble, he acted like I dragged her there. Maya drove drunk? My fault. Maya punched a guy and got us arrested? My fault. He bailed only her out of the cell and let me rot till morning.
I loathe him.
But I feel his stare dragging over me again, and a different buzz settles in—hot, wrong, dangerous.
“Excuse me?” he finally says, voice low.
“It’s the 2000s,” I say calmly, even though my heart is doing aerobics. “Just because she’s your sister doesn’t mean you get to dictate her life. Women have rights. I suggest you crawl back to whatever cave you came out of.”
His eyes don’t move. “I suggest you mind your business. The last thing you want is me taking this personally. You won’t like the outcome.”
I scoff, set my glass down, and stand—cheeks hot, body hotter. Toe-to-toe, even though I have to tilt my chin up to meet his eyes.
“Don’t you already take everything about me personally?”
His jaw flexes. His eyes flick down to the dress that barely qualifies as a dress. Too short. Too tight. Too everything.
For a second, I swear he swallows.
Maya jumps between us
“Okay, let’s chill—Kiara’s taking the next step sexually in her relationship , she’s learning, I’m trying to help, don’t yell—”
I blink.
Did she just—
Of course she told my worst enemy I haven’t had s*x.
Nope. I’m not doing this. I am NOT sticking around to let Kade be smug about my non-existent s*x life.
“You booked a room upstairs?” I cut in.
“Yeah. First door on the right.”
I keep my eyes locked on Kade, refusing to break first again.
“Well, since you’re leaving, Maya,” I say, “send the first guy you see up. I’m buzzed enough for a few bad decisions.”
Maya’s eyes nearly pop out from excitement. Kade’s teeth? Probably turning to dust from how hard he’s clenching them.
I shoulder past him—literally shoulder-to-stomach because he’s built like a wall—and head upstairs.
The room is drenched in red light. A huge mirror. Red leather seating. Low music humming in the background. It feels like stepping into a sin you can’t talk your way out of.
The door opens behind me.
She actually sent someone.
I turn—
Kade.
My breath stutters. “I didn’t ask you to come.”
“Well, according to you,” he says, shutting the door behind him, “Maya was supposed to send the first guy she saw. And you have her house keys.”
My own words land like a slap.
His eyes rake down my body again—slow this time, deliberate, like he wants me to notice.
“Stop looking at me like that,” I whisper, heat crawling up my throat. My stomach is a knot of nerves and something darker.
His lips twist in something not quite a smile nor a smirk but he quickly schools the expression
“How many times are we going to have this conversation about you bringing my sister to places like this”
She brought me here but sure….
“In case you missed it… she’s a grown ass woman. She can make her own choices, Kade,” I shot back, my calm facade cracking a bit as his piercing gaze bore into me.
I exhaled deeply, trying hard to ignore the way my body was reacting to his mere presence. Why did he have to be so intense?
I should go …..
Before I could take another stepped he tugged me back slamming me into the wall his body was pressed against mine
He was too close... too damn close for comfort.
"Let me go Kade."
I meant to say that with more force but it just came out breathless and needy.
His hands came down to my neck and he started pulling slow steady strokes at my pulse point. Lucky for me those red marks faded earlier in the day.
"Please..."
I said not sure what I'm begging for but I wanted more and at the same time I didn't
"What do you want Kiara?" He asked, keeping his voice dangerously low as his fingers trailed up my thighs feather light.
A sound filled the air and I realized that whimper came from me.
"I hate you." I spat out. But there was no strength behind my words.
Only desperation and the next thing I knew, I was spun around and bent over the couch.
"That bratty mouth of yours will get you in trouble one day." He said behind me.
“Fuck...."
My words broke into a yelp as I felt his heavy hands come down on my ass.
He spanked me again.
And again.
And then there was a pause.
I didn't know what was going on but bent over like this I could feel his erection and boy was that thing big. I rubbed myself all-over his length and nudged him with my ass, taunting him.
"How about you say please like a good little girl." He said.
"You're crazy if you ever think I'll beg you for anything…I’d rather s**t in my hands and clap " I retorted, still trying to prove that I was stubborn.
"Let's test that theory then shall we? Let's see how long I can edge you before you start begging me to let you come."
Then he pulled my dress up and then I felt the sharp rip of my panties as he slid his fingers inside me.
His hands worked magic in my p***y.
In, out. In, out.
Deliberately. Slowly bringing me to the edge.
A moan broke out of me and I nearly toppled over the couch
"That's it love, see how you're dripping all over my fingers like the greedy little slut that you are."
I had fully resigned myself to him at this point. To do to my body as he pleases.
I'm getting married to an old man tomorrow. Why not lose my virginity now to Kade? At least he was nice to look at.
Fuck! Where the hell did that come from?
"If you're going to f**k me then do it. If you won't then I'm sure if I go back to the club I'll find someone who..."
My words were cut off as he slapped my p***y with something thick and long and before I could register it he slammed into me with one full thrust, pain bloomed low but he didn't even stop as his thrusts grew angrier, rougher and so hard that my hips slammed into the couch.
And just as the white spots began to appear behind my eyes, just as I was beginning to see stars, he pulled out.
I nearly turned around to slap him but then he opened his mouth to talk.
"Are you begging already?" He taunted.
"No."
Cock in one hand, he slipped his d**k from my p***y lips to my ass cheeks which clenched at the thought of the intrusion…but he right back to my p***y
I felt his d**k inside me again and this time it was easier. My pleasure was building but just as I was about to tip off the edge, he stopped.
"What? Please. Please Kade. Please let me cum." I begged and whined.
"Now that wasn't so hard was it, love."
He said, slipping his d**k back home and f*****g me again
He was hitting exactly where I needed and soon enough, I felt myself shatter around him with a loud moan
Kade was right behind me. His thrusts uncoordinated and deeper as he chased his release.
A few more thrusts later and he let out a groan as I whimpered at the sight of him coming undone. I felt his seed inside me and I let out another moan as he fully rested on my back but still holding me up
A lazy smile appeared on my face and I turned to look at him. My eyes were shutting down and the last thing I remember was him telling me goodnight as he placed his hands on my waist.
★
I opened my eyes, and a small smile crept across my lips as the memory of Kade’s hands on me filled my mind. My body ached in ways I couldn’t ignore, yet with Kade it was….
My thoughts cut off as the full weight of the situation came crashing down on me
It was Kade
What the hell had I just done?
Maya is my best friend, and I was supposed to be getting married tomorrow. My stomach twisted as the thought settled in. No…today. My eyes flicked to the clock.
Eight o’clock.
I was getting married today.
I could stay here and forget it but my father knows where Lily is , I could hear the shower running from the bed I quickly and quietly picked my clothes up and exited the house
Welcoming my new hell.
