The Sweetest Temptation

Chapter 1: Betrayal

(Arya)

I knocked softly on my boyfriend's apartment door. He lived in a small apartment complex in New York City. I got no answer so I knocked a little louder. There was still no answer. I put my ear up to the door and listened and I could hear moving around on the other side.

I knocked even louder and he still didn't come to the door. I rarely use the apartment key he gave me because I'm always with him. I pull the key out of my purse and unlock the door.

When I entered I looked around and saw that the place was a mess. There were clothes everywhere and most of the clothes looked like women clothing. My heart sank to my stomach and at that moment I knew exactly what was going on.

He was with another girl. I walked down the hall towards his room and I was going to knock until I heard giggling. I whipped the door open so fast and couldn't believe what I was looking at. "What the fuck!?" I scream.

My best friend Amber jumps out of bed and starts putting her clothes on. "Omg Arya I'm so sorry... it's not what it looks like I swear." Mateo says. I look at him in disgust, " Oh really, tell me, what is it then?" "Arya listen please" Amber butts in.

I turned to look at her, "What happened to you saying you were going to kill him if he ever hurt me?" Amber starts to tear up. "I was going to end it I swear!" I laugh at her and turn to walk out. As I'm walking out Mateo follows me.

"I'm so sorry Arya, please forgive me." "Don't bother being sorry, you can have her, it's over." I leave the apartment without looking back. Honestly I don't know why I dated such a jerk anyway. He never treated me right in the first place.

I got in my car and decided to go to the nearest bar. I arrived and ordered a strong drink right away. I sipped on my drink and zoned in and out. Thinking about earlier kind of made me sad. I sat my drink down and put my head in my hands and cried.

Just as I was about to wipe my tears a tall dark figure stood over me. I look up to see who it is and I'm surprised. It's Leo, we've known each other since we were kids. Seeing how handsome he was made me flush. He looked so different.

He was tall and muscular, had dark brown eyes and beautiful long eyelashes. He wore a black long sleeve button shirt with black pants. I have to say this man is the most gorgeous man I've ever seen. "Hey Arya." "Leo, what are you doing here." I said trying not to sound like I was just crying a few seconds ago.

But obviously he could tell I was crying because of my red eyes and the dried up tears on my face. There was no hiding the evidence. "The question is what are you doing here and why are you alone." He looks down at me and frowns. "I needed a drink." "Why are you crying?" I stay silent and ignore him, taking a big gulp of my drink and cringing at the taste of how strong it is.

He puts his hand on the bar stool I'm sitting on and spins it around to face him. My heart flutters when I get a really good look at his face. Damn this man is the sexiest man alive. His hair looks as if it's been freshly cut and a few strands of hair fall directly into his face.

Heat rushes throughout my body and reaches between my legs. This man is so hot just standing there like that turns me on. He smirks at me and runs his tongue across his bottom lip knowing that I admire him. "Tell me Arya, what is it that you want?" His voice is so deep. He takes a step towards me, making me part my legs so that he can come closer. He steps in between my legs and looks down at me.
