Fatal Alliances: Bonus Chapter 3 (Part 1)
Juliet tightened her grip on the icy metal of the balcony as the darkness of the night consumed her. Her dark locks tousled in the soft wind as she let out a tired sigh. This uneasy feeling had been sitting heavily on her bones. One she couldn’t easily shake off.
“You’ve been standing out there for over an hour,” his cool, collected voice kissed onto her pores. Adrian leaned against the frame of the door casually as he absorbed the sight of the young woman in the c...

Fatal Alliances: Chapter 36.5
I wanted this. I wanted this more than anything in the world right now. But I didn’t deserve it. I didn’t deserve her.
Hurt fogged over her features. Embarrassment. Pain. It all drifted through her and I hated myself for it. No matter how much I wanted to reciprocate, no matter how much I wanted her. I couldn’t. I couldn’t have her. I couldn’t hurt her any further.
She pulled away quickly, but I held onto her wrist, “Julie wait-” I tried to say, hoping she’d u...
Fatal Alliances: Chapter 32.5
I shouldn’t have tried to kiss her. I had to control myself and these urges I had. The back of my head sank into the pillow as I stared at the ceiling. What was wrong with me? I shouldn’t want her like this. If she and I did something, it’d only end in regret. And she’d be the one regretful because I wasn’t the man she wanted. I’m not the kind of man that a girl like her would need. Or rather should want.
Our relationship needed to be professional. So help me God, ...
Fatal Alliances: Chapter 29.5
I wasn’t sure what I was supposed to feel right now.
I should be angry. I think I was. But, watching her walk out like that made me regret how harshly I spoke to her. Could I blame her? For wanting her family’s happiness? I’d do anything to get mine back. I knew how manipulative her father was as well. I wouldn’t doubt he used her.
Planting myself back on the sofa, I ran a frustrated hand through my hair, tilting my head back and tightening my eyes. Her floral s...
Fatal Alliances: Chapter 22.5
“Well, I’m not like you, I can’t turn off people like that. Not when they’re judging me and my character like that. You’re a man, you wouldn’t understand. Let me get one thing straight Vandermir, I’m a decent girl but I’m not naïve in that sense and I don’t take crap from people.”
She never fails to push my buttons.
If getting another room makes her feel more comfortable then fine. I wasn’t going to argue further with her. “Don’t call me mother.” I scowled abou...
Fatal Alliances: Chapter 19.5
“It isn’t very polite to stand right there when others are speaking,” I said to her. Her soft flowery perfume danced off her and delicately kissed my senses.
“This is my house, I can stand anywhere I want.” she shot back.
She was about to leave but I held her back by the wrist. I was careful this time not to be rough, although it was hard when she was so tiny. “And don’t make calling me a habit Greene, it’s quite annoying.” I finished.
“Adrian, I’ve made some...
Fatal Alliances: Chapter 16.5
You’re firing me?
Her words lingered in my head. The way her face fell, and her eyes dampened as she spoke. I’ll never fucking get it out of my head. The alcohol burned down my throat as I had the bartender refill my glass. I don’t know how long I’d been in here. But I was trying to escape it all. Escape her. But she only kept haunting me. My interaction with her kept playing on repeat in my mind, no matter how much I tried to drown it.
“So how long are you pla...
Fatal Alliances: Chapter 13.5
Had I hurt her? The damn question burned within me. I shouldn’t have tugged her so roughly towards me last night. She was sick, I should have been more gentle. Maybe she was right. Maybe I was a monster after all.
“Adr—Mr. Vandermir…” a soft voice filled the air.
Through the reflection of the window, she stood there in that crimson dress. She was a sight in it after all.
“Shouldn’t you be gone by now, Miss Greene?” I couldn’t help but ask. Nor could I admit t...
Fatal Alliances: Chapter 9.5
She tightened her arms around me, sinking her face into my chest. I could feel the heat dancing off her soft breaths as she pressed further in. She didn’t let go. And quite honestly, I didn’t want her to. I’m not sure why. Apart from that, I had to get her out of this, she was turning into a vegetable. Clearly, she was in pain. All she had to do was tell me. Tell me, Greene.

From my peripheral vision, I observed how she tightened her eyes and pressed her cheek...
