He licks his lips, raking a hand through his hair. "You know I've had my suspicions about something, but I think that phone call proved it." He pauses, waiting for me to continue. "You race," He says. And when I don't nod, he continues. "I think it's more than that." He takes a deep breath. "Lila, are you the racer who holds the title?" Frustrated, he says, "I opened up to you and I don't think it's fair you aren't doing the same."
I scoff. "I didn't ask you to do that."
"You didn't deny it."
Panic fills my body.
My hands shake by my side.
Ollie gently grabs my hands. "Lila, I'm not going to hurt you. I'm here for you. Answer me this: Are you the racer who holds the title? Be honest with me. Reel me in and I can help you." I nod, a tear slipping out of my eye. 
"Lila, please let me in so I can help you. Why is Devin after you?"
"He wants the title. The whole industry is pretty much after me."
"But why is he the one who is out for blood?"
I squeeze his hand. "Maybe this is where your patience comes in."All Rights Reserved

PERFECT || Ollie Bearman by ElyseTomlinsonx

"Alright, what the- Sadie?" Ollie did look terrible. He just wasn't the same from the last few days I had seen him. "You okay?" I collapsed straight into him, sobbing. "You're fine, Ollie," I looked up at him. "I missed you." "I can't believe you're here!" He exclaimed like an excited little boy on Christmas morning. "I just want to kiss you right now." "What did you say?" He hummed and dragged me and my bags in, cupping my face tightly in his hands while I reached for the back of his neck. "Last time we did this, your Mum interrupted us." "I know," Ollie chuckled. He leant in closely and pressed his lips gently on mine as I sensed an awkward smile on his face. I backed myself into the door as his hands found my waist, while I dug my fingers onto his back. "I had no idea how to kiss. Teach me sometime, won't you?" "You were already pretty good, Ollie," I pushed his head in. "Lovely," He sighed. "We should get to bed." "I don't want you sacrificing your career for me, so sure," I ruffled his hair. "I love you." "Say it twice, love," He wrapped himself around me. "I love you more."

My Bikie Boyfriend by jvaenuku

He grunted as he grabbed my arm again and made me face him, but he didn't say anything. My anger was mounting and this was as private as it was going to get with Sione and Maddy in the car next to us slowly inching forward when we did. "Dammit you can't keep fucking man handling me! You need to stop the possessiveness and for fuck sake Alastair's a friend him smacking my arse is how he greets fucking all of his female friend's! You need to back off because we are not a fucking couple! And you need a fucking filter, what you said to Tessa was horrible!" "Are you done?" He growled out. I was panting so much my chest was heaving as I realised my anger was slowly disappearing. I just nod. "Good, you are my fucking woman so you better get used to it, I didn't hear any fucking objections when I claimed you in front of Beast or in front of that pack of sluts. I don't fucking share what's mine." My anger quickly returned, "I'm not a fucking object you egotistical son of a b-" Grim grabbed me to him and crashed his mouth on top of my own he dominated my mouth as he pulled me closer, while like this I remain still hating him more for his domination. Grim seemed to realise this and changed tactic. He shifted so I was more cupped into his body wrapping his arms around me and softening his assault on my mouth. He asked permission to enter my mouth and I let him, his skill with his tongue made me melt into him and bring my arms up around his neck burying my hands in his hair. Pleasure was shivering all over my skin as he continued to kiss me I tentatively brought my tongue out to touch his and moaned at the sensation. Pulling his hair in the process causing Grim to groan and lift me fully into his embrace.

Loving My Brother's Best Friend✅ by Romantic_stories123

When he looked in through the window, he was astounded to see her topless and braless. She was standing with her back to him, eliciting wild desires in him. He took his handkerchief from his pocket and crept into her room through the window. After snatching the top from her hand, he blindfolded her with his hankie before dragging her towards the bed. Her heartbeat accelerated. She could feel that he was her man but she wanted to be sure. She asked, "is it you, baby?" He pushed her onto the bed and gazed at her perfect slender body with profound desires in his eyes. He hovered her and tied her wrists with his tie to the headboard. **** She had madly and deeply loved him since the moment she understood the meaning of love and could never stop her heart from beating for him since the day she saw him despite knowing that he would never retaliate to her feelings as for him she was only his best friend's sister while for her he was her world. She was so innocent and pure like holy water, and he was messed up and a monster whom anybody definitely wouldn't like to come across. She had never dated anyone in her entire life because, for her, the love of her life was everything. On the other hand, he never believed in all this. For him, "love" didn't exist; it was all about physical needs. His mere presence was enough to relieve her pain; he was like oxygen to her, while on the other hand, he didn't even acknowledge her presence. Her love was so pure and selfless that it could make anyone fall for it because it's not easy to love someone who is forbidden. But will he ever witness her this unconditional love? Will he ever love her as purely as she loves him? Will her one-sided love ever be fulfilled? If you want to know, then follow the journey of a tempting biker and his secret admirer.

He doesn't know how much he's breaking my heart right now. "Trinity, I don't know how to show you how much sorry I am." He states, rubbing his face with his hand in frustration. "You can't, your 'sorry' doesn't changed what happened." I point to my face, where the bandage is. "This could have been prevented but you didn't even move a muscle to come and save me." "Trinity, if I did that it could have ruined my plans." He says, lowly. "It doesn't matter. If you truly love me like you say you do, you wouldn't have hesitated to come save me. I was so scared Aaron, I thought I was going to die." I respond, tears spilling before I can stop them. "I do love you Trin, I love you so fucking much." He states, clutching his shirt where his heart is. "Not like the way I love you Aaron. If you were in the position I was in, I wouldn't have fucking hesitated to come save you. I would die for you and you clearly wouldn't do the same." - Trinity's planner didn't originally have "falling in love with Aaron Florence" on it, but after a heated night and multiple dates, it became a daily thing. That is until, she learns about what he does for work. She knew he worked with Reid Laurent, but she didn't know about what they did. Ambitious, Aaron Florence is willing to do anything to finish a work task, or mission, even if it puts his loved ones in danger. And it did. Now, terrified and pregnant, Trinity doesn't know what to do, how can she co-parent with the man who claimed to protect her at all costs but didn't? - scandalous © r3mismylove 2022 all rights reserved

The Silver Fighter | ✓ by LiseR05

"I already killed your mother, Cam." As the words left my enemy's mouth like a mocking sneer, I growled under my breath at the mention of my old name. Memories started to boil up that I had been wanting to squash deep into my heart. Bad memories. "As you can guess, I'm here to finish the job." He continued with that ever-present sinister smirk on his face. And in that moment, a sudden burst of confidence just appeared within me. Or blatant stupidity. 'I'll take either one.' I silently admitted to myself. I rolled my eyes at his so-called 'threat', not really intimidated in the least. "Yeah, like that went so well the first time. The first time, you fucked up enough to get caught by the police." I pointed out. "The second time, your grown-ass men got their asses handed to them by two teenagers." I snorted at him. "Your odds aren't looking too good here, Berti." ~•~ Losing her father? Lovely. Getting in a car accident with her aunt, uncle, and cousin and being the sole survivor? Fantastic. Losing her mother because a deranged psychopath holds a grudge even better than The Grinch? Amazing. Being ostracized from her own family save from her paternal grandparents, and getting the blame for her mother's death? Cherry on top of the cake. Having to make sure three idiotic twats don't get themselves killed because they couldn't mind their own bloody business? Bloody hell, that's an entire ice cream cake with ten pounds of gummy bears. ~•~ Join Grace Stanton as she faces her demons and the demons of her past all while trying not to commit murder against her three new friends. Fun times. (First book in the Gilded series) ~•~ [#1 Streetracer - 4/21/21] [#1 Gangs - 9/16/21] [#1 Boxer - 9/12/21] [#1 Fighter - 12/11/21] [#2 Boxing - 9/3/21] [#1 Girlpower - 2/12/21]

Completed!! "I think that I might be falling in love with you, which shouldn't be possible since I barely know you and-" The feeling of something soft and warm covered my lips, and it took me a moment to realize that Adrian was kissing me. Dumbfounded, I stared at him with wide unmoving eyes as he gently pulled away. The kiss was short-lived, but it didn't stop the warmth I felt erupting from my chest. My eyes zeroed in on his lips, "... Do that again... " I whispered, leaning in as my eyes fluttered closed, "... please? " His minty breath fanned my face as he let out a heartfelt chuckle, "Gladly... " Gently grabbing my face in both of his large calloused hands he kissed me once more. Ever Monroe was abandoned in the middle of nowhere by her boyfriend and was found by Adrian Wolf, a street racer with a past he doesn't like to talk about. What happens when he lets her stay the night with him? Will they become close or will they go their separate ways without a second thought?
