His to touch, I to surrender

9.3 / 10.0
In the shadowed underbelly of Istanbul, where the ancient Bosphorus whispers secrets between Europe and Asia, ambitious journalist Blessing infiltrates the Velvet Veil—a clandestine club hidden beneath the historic hammams of Sultanahmet. Disguised in black lace that clings like sin, she hunts for evidence of corporate corruption tied to reclusive billionaire Elias Voss, a man whose empire spans continents and whose gaze alone promises ruin. But one piercing look across the crimson-lit room changes everything. Elias, silver-threaded and commanding, sees through her facade in an instant. “You think you can play in my world without paying the price, little one?” His voice is velvet over steel, his first touch—a deliberate graze along her wrist—igniting a fire she’s long denied. What begins as a calculated seduction spirals into raw, consuming passion: stolen moments in silk-draped alcoves where his fingers map her trembling body, his mouth devours her pleas, and their bodies collide in desperate, tear-streaked ecstasy that blurs dominance and devotion. As leaked videos expose their night of surrender, Blessing’s career crumbles under scandal, and Elias’s loveless marriage to a vengeful wife threatens to destroy them both. Yet in hidden chambers scented with oud and desire, they cling to each other—whispered confessions between bruising kisses, frantic unions against ancient stone walls, every thrust a defiant vow against the world closing in. But the deepest betrayal lurks closer than she imagines: the journalist who came to expose him may hold the key to his downfall—or his salvation. In a city where East meets West and truth hides in shadows, one question burns hotter than their skin: Can love born in deception survive the light of day?

His to touch, I to surrender Chapter 1

"You think you can just walk away and leave me like this?” My voice cracked, raw and desperate, louder than I intended in the cocooned silence. “After you’ve already ruined me with one touch?”

He stopped mid-step beyond the silk, shoulders tensing. Slowly—agonizingly—he turned. The red light painted half his face in blood and shadow; the other half stayed mercilessly unreadable. When he spoke, his voice was quieter than before, almost tender, and that gentleness terrified me more than any command.

“Ruined you?” He stepped back inside, letting the curtain seal us once more. “Sweetheart… I haven’t even started.”

My thighs clenched involuntarily at the endearment wrapped in threat. I was still sprawled against the chaise where he’d left me—dress rucked high, panties soaked through, nipples straining painfully against damp lace, chest heaving with shallow, humiliated breaths. Every inch of skin he’d grazed felt branded. The ghost of his fingers still pulsed between my legs like a second heartbeat.

He crossed the small space in two strides and dropped to one knee before me—not in submission, never that—but so our eyes were level. Close enough that I could smell the faint cedar-and-smoke of his cologne mixed now with my own arousal. His gaze dropped to my mouth, then lower, cataloguing every trembling inch.

“Look at you,” he murmured, almost reverent. “Already crying for it and I’ve barely begun.”

I hadn’t realized tears had slipped free until he reached up and caught one on his thumb. He brought it to his lips, tasting salt and shame and want in one slow lick. Something inside my chest cracked open.

“Please,” I whispered. The word tasted like surrender.

He didn’t smile this time. Instead his hand cupped my jaw—firm, possessive—and tilted my face so I couldn’t hide.

“Say it properly.”

My lips trembled. “Please… touch me again. I need—” My voice broke. “I need you to finish what you started. I can’t breathe without it.”

For one terrible heartbeat I thought he would deny me again. Then his mouth crashed against mine.

It wasn’t gentle. It was starvation.

Teeth and tongue and the low, animal sound he made when I opened for him immediately. I tasted whiskey and possession and something darker—relief, maybe, that I hadn’t run. My hands flew to his shoulders, nails digging through expensive wool as if I could anchor myself against the tidal wave of him.

He kissed like he was claiming territory. Like every sweep of his tongue was rewriting my nerve endings. When he finally pulled back—just enough to speak against my swollen mouth—his voice was wrecked.

“You taste like mine already.”

Then his hands were everywhere.

One slid into my hair, fisting at the roots to hold me still while the other dragged down my body in a single ruthless stroke—over collarbone, between aching breasts, across quivering stomach, straight to the drenched cotton between my thighs. He cupped me possessively through the fabric, palm grinding against my clit in a slow, deliberate circle that ripped a sob from my throat.

“God, you’re dripping,” he growled against my neck. “This greedy little cunt has been weeping for me since the moment I looked at you.”

I arched helplessly, hips chasing his hand. “Yes—please—more—”

He hooked the soaked fabric aside with one finger and dragged it through my folds—once, twice, gathering slick before circling my entrance without pushing inside. Teasing. Torturing.

“Beg properly,” he ordered, teeth grazing my pulse. “Tell me exactly what this desperate body wants.”

Tears spilled again—hot, humiliating, cathartic. “I want your fingers inside me,” I choked out. “I want you to stretch me, fill me, make me come so hard I forget my own name. Please—I’ll do anything—”

The confession seemed to snap something in him.

Two thick fingers plunged deep in one brutal thrust.

I cried out—half pain, half ecstasy—as my walls fluttered violently around the sudden invasion. He didn’t give me time to adjust. He curled those fingers immediately, hooking against that devastating spot inside while his thumb found my clit and rubbed merciless, perfect circles.

“Look at me,” he snarled when my eyes tried to roll back.

I forced them open. His pupils were blown, jaw clenched so tight I could see the muscle jump. He looked… wrecked. Like touching me was hurting him as much as it was destroying me.

“You’re so fucking tight,” he rasped. “So wet. So perfect. This cunt was made for me—say it.”

“Made for you,” I sobbed, hips bucking. “Only for you—”

He rewarded me by adding a third finger, stretching me wider, fuller. The burn was exquisite. My thighs shook uncontrollably; slick coated his wrist, dripping onto the velvet beneath us.

“That’s it,” he crooned, voice gone velvet and gravel. “Give it to me. Let me feel how badly you need to come on my fingers like a good girl.”

The praise shattered me.

My orgasm hit like violence—back arching off the chaise, a broken scream tearing from my throat as every muscle locked and released in punishing waves. He fucked me through it with slow, deep strokes, drawing it out until I was whimpering, oversensitive, tears streaming freely.

When the aftershocks finally ebbed he didn’t withdraw. Instead he leaned in, forehead pressed to mine, breathing as ragged as my own.

“You’re shaking,” he whispered, almost brokenly. “I’ve got you.”

Only then did he ease his fingers free—slowly, reverently—bringing them glistening to his mouth. He sucked them clean while holding my gaze, groaning low in his throat at the taste of me.

I trembled harder.

He kissed me again—soft this time, tasting myself on his tongue, sharing the evidence of my surrender. When he pulled back his eyes were molten, unguarded for the first time.

“I’m not done with you,” he said quietly. Dangerously. “Not even close.”

My heart stuttered.

He stood, offering his hand. When I took it my fingers were still trembling.

“Where are we going?” I managed.

He tugged me against his chest, lips brushing my ear.

“Somewhere no one will hear you scream my name when I finally fuck you properly.”

His grip tightened—possessive, reverent, terrifying.

“And when I’m finished,” he murmured, “you’re going to beg me never to let you go.”

I already was.

Alpha Rejected True Mate Novel Cover

The greenhouse was my sanctuary in a pack house that had never felt like home. Dawn hadn't yet broken when I slipped inside, the familiar scent of damp soil and blooming flowers wrapping around me like an embrace I'd long been denied elsewhere. My fingers trembled slightly as I reached for the watering can—a weakness I couldn't afford to show outside these glass walls. I focused on the white lilies, my favorites. Their pure petals reminded me of what I once was—hopeful, untainted. Before the mate bond that became my prison. "You're wilting too, aren't you?" I whispered to a drooping bloom, gently supporting its stem. My wolf, Luna, whimpered softly in the back of my mind. Once silver and strong, she now barely stirred, weakened by the sickness that had been consuming us both since I gave too much blood to save William three years ago. A sudden tremor ran through my bones, stronger than the usual morning weakness.

I tapped my pencil against the edge of my sketchpad, staring at the half-finished design for the ceremonial necklace I planned to surprise Marcus with for our fifth anniversary. The silver and moonstone piece would symbolize our enduring bond—five perfect years as Alpha and Luna of the Silverstone Pack. "What do you think, Lyra?" I whispered to my wolf, who purred contentedly in my mind. *Beautiful, like all your creations, Victoria.* My inner wolf had always been my greatest supporter, even before Marcus. I smiled, setting down my pencil and stretching my arms above my head. The afternoon sun streamed through the windows of our shared study, casting a warm glow over the polished oak desk. Marcus had left his tablet behind this morning in his rush to handle what he'd called an "urgent pack matter." I reached for it, thinking I could review some of the anniversary celebration plans we'd been discussing. We'd granted each other access to our devices years ago—a symbol of trust between mates. The screen lit up at my touch, revealing a messaging app I rarely used. A notification blinked insistently in the corner—from Amber Rodriguez, our new pack coordinator.

The scent of pine and mountain air clung to my skin as I stepped into the sprawling neutral-territory lodge. My heart fluttered with anticipation, one hand instinctively resting on my still-flat stomach where our future heir grew. Three weeks of morning sickness had confirmed what my wolf, Luna, had already whispered to me – I was carrying Michael's pup, the future Alpha of Silver Creek Pack. "He's going to be so happy," I whispered to my wolf, feeling her eager agreement pulse through our shared consciousness. *He'll finally look at us the way he did when we first mated,* Luna murmured inside my mind. I hadn't told anyone about my pregnancy, not even my mother back in the Moonstone Pack. This moment belonged to Michael first – my Alpha, my mate, the man who had swept me into his world three years ago with promises of devotion and protection. The marble floors echoed beneath my careful steps as I followed the familiar trail of Michael's scent – sandalwood and authority, a commanding presence that had always made my knees weak. The diplomatic meetings between packs had kept him away for nearly two weeks, and though he'd ordered me to stay at our pack house, I couldn't bear to wait another day to share our miracle. My fingers trembled slightly as I traced his scent down a long corridor lined with carved wooden doors.

Just like the evening breeze leaves no trace Novel Cover

Chapter 1 It was their seventh wedding anniversary. Carolyn found the divorce agreement in Roger’s nightstand. The pages were covered in scribbles and corrections, as if he’d agonized over them for years. *"If, during the marriage, I fall in love with another person, I voluntarily relinquish all assets and leave with nothing. Asset details as follows…"* His first impulse had been to walk away empty-handed. But the asset section told a different story—a mess of revisions. First, he’d crossed out the property he intended to give her. Then, the fifty million earmarked for her was scratched out and replaced with five hundred thousand. Finally, as if in penance, he had written a single line. *"Better to have Carolyn leave with nothing. No choice, Catherine is pregnant."* … Carolyn sank onto the bed, disbelief washing over her. On the agreement, Roger’s signature was clean and decisive, without a hint of hesitation. And the document had been drafted seven years ago—the very year they married. That year, Roger had been willing to give up everything for her. Yet every year after, he had crossed out another piece of their shared life. Now, seven years later, the one leaving with nothing would be her. Her phone buzzed abruptly. A message from Roger. *"Urgent business. Won't be back."* She called, only to find his phone already switched off. Another notification flashed—a screenshot from a friend. Catherine, the student she sponsored, had posted on social media. *"Wow, got praised! To commemorate my first period without a leak, the big boss said we should celebrate properly!"* In a nine-photo collage, Roger gazed at her, eyes crinkling with affection as he fastened a dazzling gemstone necklace around her neck. The post was tagged at a couples-themed hotel. Carolyn’s breath caught. He couldn’t remember seven years of marriage, of weathering storms together—but he could find the energy to celebrate Catherine’s… leak-free period. And that pendant… she’d seen it at an auction just last week. It was her mother’s lost heirloom. She’d been ready to bid when her bank card was frozen. She’d asked Roger why. A long time later, he finally texted back, telling her not to waste money on such impractical things. Clutching her bidding paddle, she’d sat helplessly in the auction hall. In the end, she resolved to sell one of her own designs to raise the funds. But someone on the phone swooped in with an unbeatable offer and took it. For weeks afterward, Carolyn hated herself—hated that she couldn’t protect her mother’s last keepsake. She never imagined the one who snatched it away was Roger. He knew exactly how much that pendant meant to her. Yet he gave it to Catherine. Even on their seventh anniversary, Roger had lied about being busy with work, while wining and dining the girl she’d sponsored. The anniversary gift he left her was a divorce agreement demanding she leave with nothing. Seven years of marriage. Seven years of infidelity. And Carolyn had known nothing. She’d even introduced the other woman to him herself. Catherine was the impoverished student Carolyn sponsored. The first time Catherine came to their home to give thanks, Roger found her intrusive and disliked her on sight. *"That girl has no manners. Tracked mud all over my cashmere rug."* *"If her grades aren’t up to par, cut the sponsorship."* Back then, Carolyn had teased him, saying not to be jealous—it was good the girl had a grateful heart. She never once suspected Roger and Catherine. For seven years, everyone in their circle believed Roger never played around. That he loved only Carolyn. But by their next meeting, Catherine had become Roger’s personal assistant. Roger explained, *"The girl’s had it tough. You’ve sponsored her for years. Giving her a job is just helping you out."* Carolyn had laughed it off. Now, hands trembling, she opened Catherine’s social media feed. Catherine had always hidden her posts from Carolyn. Now, she seemed desperate to flaunt everything. While Carolyn drank until her stomach bled to secure a deal for Roger, Catherine was using Roger’s card to buy her first Louis Vuitton. While Carolyn changed bedpans for Roger’s bedridden grandmother, Roger was taking Catherine to a perfume atelier for a blending class—calling it a business trip. Catherine had even complained online. *"Your wife is such a pampered princess. Can't handle the tiniest thing without you running back. Can she not live without a man?"* And Roger had replied beneath it. *"If she were half as independent as you, I’d have an easier life."* But that day… Carolyn’s mother had lost her battle with cancer. She’d cried until her heart felt shredded, scrambling to handle the arrangements. All the while, Roger kept checking his phone impatiently, eager to leave. Not for work, she realized now—but because he was desperate to get back to Catherine.
