Chapter 41: Fate

"I just got into town today. Wanted to unwind before getting busy tomorrow," Ethan said and she nodded.

Though she wanted to ask if he doesn’t live here in Zeden, she decided against, telling herself it was best not to know much. Instead of asking him more personal questions, she decided to talk about other things generally.

They talked for a while—shouting over the music at first, but gradually leaning closer and closer until she could feel the heat of his breath on her skin. Ethan was charming. Funny. Flirty in just the right way. And god, he smelled good.

When he placed a hand gently on her lower back to guide her toward the quieter lounge section, she didn’t pull away. Instead, she leaned in.

In the low-lit booth tucked away from the loud dance floor, they talked more. He asked about what she did, and she told him she was in "personal relations," which wasn’t a lie—not entirely. He laughed at her jokes, listened when she spoke, and looked at her like he saw everything.

An hour passed, maybe more, before she leaned in close, her hand resting on his thigh, her voice barely above a whisper. "Wanna get out of here?"

He paused only for a second before giving a small nod. "Yeah. Let’s go."

Ethan drove them to his penthouse, just a few blocks away. If she’d been there as his friend, maybe she would’ve taken sometime to explore the place but that wasn’t why she was there. She was there to satisfy her sexual desires.

She could barely keep her hands off him in the elevator—trailing her fingers along his arm, her body brushing against his in deliberate movements. And once the door clicked shut behind them, it was like a switch flipped.

Rayna turned to him, her heels clicking as she stepped backward into the room, eyes locked with his.

"You good?" he asked, searching her expression for any hesitation. The last thing he wanted was for her to accuse him of rape or anything or the sort.

"Very," she said, pulling her dark hair loose from its clip, the curls tumbling down around her shoulders. "Unless you’re having second thoughts?"

"Not a chance," Ethan said, shrugging off his jacket.

Rayna stepped forward and slid her hands up his chest, her fingers working at the buttons of his shirt. "Then stop talking."

Their lips met in a rush—hungry, and urgent as though they hadn’t had sex in years. She kissed him like she meant it, like she hadn’t had a proper kiss in months. He responded in kind, strong hands gripping her waist and pulling her closer.

In no time, their clothes hit the floor, one piece after another. They stumbled toward his bedroom, laughter and moans filling the air in equal measure. And when he laid her down on his bed, she reached for him again, pulling him close, guiding his mouth back to hers.

Ethan wanted to be in control but Rayna wouldn’t let him as she turned him so she was on top and straddling him. She located his rod with her hands as she slowly moved her hands up and down his entire length, making Ethan groan in pleasure.

When the heat in between her legs became too much to bear and her wetness was already on the surface, Rayna slide his dick into her honeypot—a moan eliciting from her mouth the moment she felt him inside if her, strong and firm.

Rayna wasn’t shy as she moved her waist around him, humping and spelling coconut on top of him. She didn’t hold back. She wanted this, and she made sure he knew it. Every touch, every kiss, every breathless whisper in the dark—she led, and he followed.
