Dangerous Games
Grace Watson
The campus glowed with the last light of evening, and I hurried toward the library, arms full of case studies. Just another night of work - and coffee.
As I rounded a corner, my path was blocked by none other than Nash Dubois, campus flirt and walking headache, lounging against the doorway with that smug, annoyingly handsome smirk.
"Grace Watson," he drawled in that infuriatingly smooth French accent, glancing at my books. "Burning the midnight oil, as always?"
"And you're loitering, as always," I shot back, stepping to move past him. But, of course, he blocked my way again, grinning.
He tilted his head, eyes glinting. "Loitering? No, observing. Do you ever not have a book in your hand?"
I rolled my eyes. "Some of us have priorities, unlike those who drift through life playing music and... distracting people."
His smirk deepened, leaning in just a little. "Ah, so serious. It's almost tragic, really." He paused. "But you look cute when you're mad, chérie."
I felt my cheeks warm. "Save it for someone who cares, Dubois." I pushed past him, ignoring the smug glint in his eyes as he called after me.
"One day, Grace," he said, voice low and teasing, "you might just let someone see past that shield."
Ignoring the twist in my stomach, I shook my head and stepped into the library. Nash Dubois was nothing but trouble - a complication I had zero interest in. Or at least that's what I told myself, even as his words lingered in my mind.

Under Knight's Spell
The first time Riley sees Alexander Knight, he imagines him between his legs-rough hands, filthy mouth, breaking him apart like he was made for it.

One touch spirals into a night he can't forget. And one night turns into an addiction he refuses to fight. They swore it would only happen once. Summer's heat makes liars of them both. In stolen midnight rooms and against cold walls, Riley learns what it means to be claimed-body, breath, and every trembling, broken part of himself. But secrets echo louder than any moan.

The Art Class (MXM)
Alex, a new student at Breakworth College studying art, struggles with being on time for class. With a lack of friends and no social groups, he finds himself alone and helpless. One encounter after another with Zack, he finds himself debating whether or not Zack is really homophobic and a downright asshole or is trying to hide something about himself; only time will tell. --- I had two options: Say yes or make this situation worse for myself, Deciding on option two, "Zack, you're acting pretty gay for someone who's homophobic," I said slyly. I knew this could only cause him to get angrier, but I knew it was true he was the one who called me a "fag" not even a week ago. "I'm not gay, unlike you; I just know how to get things I want, and you caught my eye. Being my friend is a blessing. You should take the offer," He said, still against my neck. "Aren't you cocky," I replied, trying to stand my ground. Gripping tighter on my waist, he hummed against my ear once again. "I'm getting impatient, Alex. Cut the crap. Say yes already so we can put this past us. I already know I can get you to say Yes," and in a barely audible voice, I heard him say, "I know your weakness". "Now, what weakness could that be-" I didn't even get to finish my sentence before a set of teeth sank into the sensitive flesh of my neck, sending an unexpected wave of pleasure through me. "W-wait, not there. Fine, fine. I'll be your friend. Just stop that shit." Zack paused, his breath hot against my skin as he chuckled. "That wasn't so hard, was it?" His tone was dripping with satisfaction, revelling in his perceived victory. He pulled back slightly, his eyes locked onto mine with a predatory glint. I tried to steady my breathing, my pulse racing from the conflicting sensations. "What is wrong with you?" I muttered, more to myself than to him. The fear and arousal mingled in a way that left me feeling disoriented and vulnerable.Complete
The Road Less Traveled (Prof./Student)
He looked so innocent reading his book, almost peaceful. I stopped in the frame, admiring his face. His brows were pulled together in a concentrated manner. His jaw was defined, leading up to his musculine body. I couldn't take my eyes from him until I heard a low chuckle. "Won't you come in?", he asked me, his blue eyes lingering on me with an indescribable look. "Eh yeah of course, sorry, I did not want to interrupt you reading.." "You would never interrupt me", he responded without any doubt in his voice. Unable to say anything else I walked towards him, my knees weak, as well as my self control. I took the seat across from him and smiled shyly at him. "So, where do we start Professor?" --------------------------- Liz had believed that this would just be her last semester in college.

Brett retorts, grabbing hold of my waist and pulling me towards him, moving me over to straddle him. Grabbing hold of my lower back he pushes me into him, and I moan slightly as his hardness rubs against my core. "Do you feel what you do to me?" he whispers and I nod.

Worth the Risk
August & Colin | WRU series | book 1 We take risks. We make mistakes. We lie. We love. We hurt. We lose total control. I took a risk. I paid the price. I made a mistake. I felt the guilt. I lied. I lie. I loved. I try not to. I hurt. I still do. I lost control. I'm losing again. I try to stick to my plan, I try to follow my rules, I try to silence my heart, I try to keep control of the domino stones that represent my life. But one domino fell and the rest just followed. *** "We shouldn't do this," he whispers against my lips. I should applaud him for having the strength to act on that thought because I haven't been able to. At one point I wanted to, but his touches made the impulse to stop vanish. Now, the only thing I want to act on is the longing inside my chest as I think about demolishing the space between us. "Do you want to stop?" I can feel his frown against my forehead. He nudges my nose before placing a featherlight kiss on my mouth. His hands slide over my jawline, his thumbs slowly caressing my cheeks. He gives me another kiss. Slow and deliberately, as if he's still debating the answer to my question as he slicks his tongue over mine. He softly sucks on my bottom lip, dragging it with him when he pulls away. "I can't," he confesses before he presses his lips back on mine. *** All Rights Reserved (Do not copy this story, thank you :))Complete![Scandalous Submission [+18]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/217111341-256-k990916.jpg)
Scandalous Submission [+18]
In an instant, I knew I wanted to release her from the blindfold. After all, if the curtains were closed, she wouldn't discern my features anyway. I gently grasped her, pulling her close as I reached for the remote resting on the table beside the sofa. With a press of a button, the heavy curtains glided shut, enveloping us in a cocoon. The world was lost to me. All that mattered was the woman now in my arms. Taking a deep breath, I began to ease the blindfold from the back of her head. As the fabric loosened and slid away, I sensed her heart quickening against my touch. She seemed startled, afraid even, her instinct to shield her eyes immediately with her hands. But I gently guided her hand aside, softly tracing the contours of her eyelids with my fingertips-a silent reassurance urging her to open them. ISABELLA Friday night was supposed to be about fun-drinks with Charlotte, letting go. But when she confessed that her online Dom, Mr. L, had cut her off for disobedience, I made a risky bet: I'd win Mr. L's submission, gain his trust, and get him to meet me in person. It felt like an easy challenge... until I realized the game would draw me closer to my cold, distant CEO, Levi. My online master's punishments awaken forbidden desires I didn't know I had. Now, the lines between pleasure and pain are blurring, and I crave more than I ever imagined. LEVI When Isabella's message hit my inbox-"I'm looking for a new online master"-I expected a typical submissive. But then I realized it was her, my intern-the woman I've secretly wanted since the moment she stepped into my office. Now, the stakes are higher than ever. My need to dominate her consumes me, but my father's warning against mixing business and pleasure rings in my ears. Can I resist the temptation... or will I finally give in to everything I've wanted?
