When Skylar stepped out of the bathroom after her shower, she found Joe already out. He was drying his hair, water droplets dripping from his lock.

Shirtless, with only a towel around his waist, Joe turned toward her, his gaze deepening with desire.

“Finished with your period?” he asked, approaching her.

Joe possessed an undeniable presence. He stood there intimidatingly and without a word, yet the raw hunger in his eyes eclipsed his commanding presence. Despite his aloof demeanor, Skylar knew his

“Or else what?” Skylar thought. But her retort died on her lips as Joe pulled her into a fierce kiss.

The force of the kiss almost knocked Skylar off balance. He didn’t give her a chance to explain.

Lost in his embrace, Skylar bit his shoulder and called him a “scoundrel“.

Sadie’s initial curiosity quickly morphed into suspicion. They wouldn’t appear out of the blue without a reason. An agenda was afoot.

As expected, after hearing Kenny’s account of the day’s events, Sadie understood their motives perfectly. They wanted to use her.

Their sudden visit wasn’t fueled by pangs of conscience or a desire for heartfelt family bonding. It was all wishful thinking on her part.

Three prior mistakes had left him wary.

Peter also frowned.
