Chapter 69 Chapter 69 They were at a standoff. A cigarette was finished, its butt hit the ground, sparks flying briefly before being snuffed out under his foot. “There’s nothing left to say, let go,” he said, reaching for the car door. Jocelyn didn’t want to release her grip, fearing that once she did, he’d […]

Chapter 68 Chapter 68 She was just about to scream when a creepy voice cut through. “Go ahead. Might as well call down your mom and dad for a show In her moment of hesitation, her lips were sealed. The familiar taste and touch sent shivers down her spine. Jocelyn fought back, punching and pinching,

Chapter 67 Chapter 67 Jocelyn took a while to toss some trash and didn’t come back upstairs, so Daisy headed down to look for her and bumped into Eline. The moment Elise laid eyes on Daisy, you’d think the way she cozied up to Daisy. Elise seemed to find her long-lost best friend, grabbing her

Chapter 66 Chapter 66 Jocelyn was pretty chuffed with his attitude. She had to admit that he did a bang-up job But she still had a bit of an affectation and chinned up, not saying a word “Are you…” Melvin, lost for words by her demeanor, just went for it and pinned her to the

Chapter 61 Chapter 61 Jocelyn was tormented by Melvin bright and early in the morning, feeling uncomfortable all over. She thought men really had a knack for looking spick and span outdoors but turning into beasts indoors. To avoid a run-in between Melvin and her mom, Jocelyn thoughtfully suggested Melvin wait for them at the

Chapter 60 Chapter 60 Jocelyn thought he would make a big deal out of this. When the elevator door opened, Melvin scooped her up and carried her straight into the apartment.
