I stepped forward and asked, "Where do you want me?" It took me a second to realize what I just said.

Shit!

I placed a hand on my crimson face and muttered, "Get your head out of the gutter! You know what I meant."

He laughed, his voice sounded hoarse and deep even when he's laughing.

I peeked at him from the gap I made between my fingers.

He was close. So close. He grabbed my hand and took me to the bed.

Damn! It did sound sexy.

His shirt was loose. Too large for me, and it hung on me like a cloth hung on a hanger.

He sat on the bed, criss crossed and pulled me to him.

♡♡♡♡♡

The thing about love is... its unpredictable. Even when you don't want love, it just happens. 

Cassandra is your typical anti-social tomboy where Easton is your black leather jacket high school bad boy. 

Cassandra and her siblings arrive at Brinkley mansion hoping the year to get by quickly so they can be back with their dad. But then they meet Easton who has a different plan for them. 

The to-be sole heir of Brinkley Inc., rude, party lover, filled with nothing but rage for the invaders in his house, becomes determined to bring the truth out to world about his father by making the lives of Cassandra and her siblings living hell.

Cassandra is not supposed to fall in love with someone like Easton who not only doesn't want her here but also isn't even available.

Join these two teens in their journey to find what's right kind of love, or is there even a righteousness to love?

The Middle - Volume Three ✔️ by jamiesquared2
76 parts Complete Mature
#1 - Shocks 26/9/19 "Never knew you had such a dirty mouth." I say, finally opening my eyes to see her giggling at me and biting her lip. I don't even hesitate about what I need to do next. I flip her over so that she's lying on her back on the bed and I'm hovering over her. I pull her up into me so that I can kiss her neck and simultaneously unclasp her bra. I wanna hear her moaning into my ear. I wanna make her call out my name. I wanna hear her scream. My lips travel down towards her panties. I can hear her ragged breathing, and she's pulling at my hair with her hands. I hook my fingers into her panties and pull them down slowly, my kisses going lower and lower, along with her panties. I know she knows what's coming, but I tease her a little, softly kissing her thighs first after her underwear has been disposed of and she's totally naked beneath me. I am very aware of my raging hard on, and I'm fighting off the urge to just sink myself down into her right now. No. I want her to know what I can do. And I want her screaming. When I finally kiss her where I know she wants me to, the noises she makes are extremely encouraging. She bucks her hips upwards, and eventually, she lets go of my hair completely and grabs fistfuls of the blanket beneath her. I hear her moan my name, and I wanna stop what I'm doing and fuck her now. But I don't. I keep going. She's moaning and gasping for breath, and I can feel her legs start to shake, and she's wringing the blanket in her fists and her chest is rising and falling so fast, and I know she's there. It's the hottest thing ever, making a girl climax. There's no bigger ego boost, and unfortunately for me, no bigger turn on. I need to fuck her now. *** The Middle Volume Three picks up right where Volume Two left off. Enough said... *MAJOR SPOILERS if you haven't read the first two books DO THAT FIRST!* [Complete Series: Volumes 1 - 4 out now]

"People would die to see us together." Huh, as if. "Too bad their dreams won't ever come true." I leaned forward and gave him a sorry look. "Ever." I added with a sharp edge and narrowed my eyes. He smirked. I stood my ground. But I could still feel my cheeks take up a slight pink. It also made me think if Sam was my only mysterious problem. But I knew better. ~ They're arch-enemies.

Cassie (Book #1 of the "Cassie" Series) by xxxSweetMelodyxxx
37 parts Complete Mature
"Alright, I'll start with an introduction to me and all the people I'm gonna tell you about, so errrr, welcome, I guess? I'm Cassie Langer, I'm seventeen, and I'm an aspiring fashion designer doing my senior year at Crestville High in some town in the middle of bumfuck nowhere. I won't bore you with the long-winded description of what I look like, this isn't My Immortal and my name isn't Ebony Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way." ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Cassie always faded into the background of life, mostly only interacting with her inner circle of close friends and seeing herself invisible to everyone else at Crestville High, and that's how she likes it. So imagine her surprise when her former friend and long-time crush - kind-hearted jock Ryan Park - decides to reconnect with her. As Cassie's growing connection with Ryan draws more attention to her, she starts gaining the confidence to take on her bullies and break out from her shell. However as she grows closer to Ryan, her close and protective childhood friend Chad Hills starts showing his own feelings for Cassie. Will she continue seeing where things go with her self-described "perfect man", or find herself falling harder for her best friend. This is the first of a series. I decided not to dump the entire story that I have planned out into one and split it into several different ones. So consider this as Cassie Book #1. This story as well as the series as a whole blends silly humor, cuteness, and also some pretty dark storylines, if you're into that kind of stuff. Also, this book makes use of music, so every chapter has a song that correlates with the story being told. I do not own any of the music or song lyrics used and every song used is linked in the chapter, all rights belong to the artists and composers :) ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED: November 10, 2020 EDITED: November 21, 2022
