Chapter 137 Their Last Time
Chapter 137 Their Last Time
When Natasha woke up, the sun was already high in the sky.
Her whole body ached, as if she’d been run over by a truck.
The room was a mess, and the air was thick with that unmistakable, intimate vibe.
Everything was a reminder that she and Jared had slept together again last night.
But she’d gone to him willingly this time.
She’d mainly done it to prevent Jared from interfering with her divorce proceedings after yesterday’s incident at the office.
She thought that she could go home after keeping her promise and sleeping with him just once.
But to her surprise, once he got a taste, he just wouldn’t let her go.
He kept her up half the night, only letting her go when it was almost morning.
Natasha was so wiped out she couldn’t even drag herself out of bed.
She’d slept straight through until now.
She glanced at the clock on the nightstand. It was already late.
If she didn’t get moving, she’d be late for work.
She immediately scrambled out of bed, rushing to freshen up and get ready.
A strong male arm suddenly wrapped around Natasha’s slender waist, catching her off guard.
She was pulled back before she could even set foot on the floor.
“Trying to sneak out again?” Jared’s voice was low and husky, still thick with sleep as he spoke right in her ear.
Natasha froze for a second.
She turned and met Jared’s deep eyes. He was already awake, watching her.
They were both completely naked at the moment.
He pulled her back into his arms, her body pressed against his, their skin touching everywhere.
Hér pretty face turned bright red.
Natasha blurted out, flustered, “I’m going to be late… I really need to get to work.
Jared pulled her closer, refusing to let her go.
“You’re officially on leave today. No work for you,” Jared said.
Natasha stared at him, surprised. “Really?”
Jared locked his intense gaze on her. “You were exhausted last night. Sleep a little longer.”
Natasha’s heart skipped a beat.
Jared’s gaze was downright predatory.
She could tell he wasn’t just talking about sleep when he said that.
“Uh… maybe I should just head to work,” Natasha mumbled.
‘At least if I were at the office, I wouldn’t have to sleep with him again, she thought. ‘If I stay in his bed, who knows if I’d end up being devoured by him all over again.’
Jared’s tall frame completely enveloped her.
He looked down at her, his voice teasing. “I gave you the whole day off, yet you’re still thinking about work? Are you really that obsessed with your job?”
Natasha subtly leaned away from his heated breath.
She mustered up her courage and mumbled, “I just… think maybe skipping work for no reason isn’t such a great idea…”
Jared gave her a sly look. “That’s not skipping work at all. You’re my assistant, just pulling an extra shift right here in your boss’s bed.”
Natasha’s blush spread all the way to her ears.
“M-Mr. Rundell…” she stammered, her voice trembling.
She looked at him, unsure what to do.

She really didn’t want to let him have his way with her like this.
Jared leaned in, pressing a gentle kiss to her lips. “So, were you satisfied last night?”
Natasha froze, totally at a loss.
‘Seriously, what does he expect me to say?’ she thought, feeling utterly flustered.
Jated leaned in right by her ear, his hot breath spilling across her tender skin.
Then, he said, “If you weren’t satisfied, we can go another round today and-”
Natasha’s internal warning bells were blaring.
Before he could even finish, she rushed to cut him off, “I’m satisfied. Really, I’m totally satisfied…”
A smug grin tugged at Jared’s lips.
He wanted to use his own body to make her addicted, to make her unable to leave him, so that she would finally make up her mind to divorce her scumbag husband and throw herself into his arms.
“So, am I better than your husband?” Jared suddenly asked again, his voice low and teasing.
“What?” Natasha blinked, completely stunned.
Jared leaned in, his lips barely grazing her ear. “Tell me, between your husband and me, who do you really prefer in bed?”
“You!” Natasha blurted out, barely thinking.
‘Easy answer, she thought. ‘I’d never even done it with Percy. So, of course, it’s Jared.’
Jared was over the moon.
He seized the moment and said, “Why don’t you just… be mine from now on?”
He was completely hooked on her.
Whenever she wasn’t around, he missed her like crazy, and when she was, he could barely resist the urge to pull her into his arms and take her straight to bed.
In short, he couldn’t live without her anymore.
“Be yours?” Natasha exclaimed, her voice tinged with disbelief.
Jared nodded without hesitation. “Yeah, be my woman.”
Natasha was scared out of her wits.
She’d finally managed to divorce Percy yesterday. If she agreed to be Jared’s woman, wouldn’t that mean she’d be losing her freedom all over again?
She’d barely gotten out of the frying pan, so how could she possibly jump into the fire again?
And at least with Percy, they were married, even if it was just on paper.
But with Jared, what would that make her? A lover who had to stay hidden in the shadows? Or the assistant he took advantage of behind closed doors?
If she agreed, their relationship would only become something she’d never be able to talk about openly.
“No, absolutely not!” Natasha shook her head, not hesitating for a second.
With that, she pushed him away and scrambled out of bed in a hurry.
She rushed into the closet and quickly picked out an outfit to change into.
Jared’s eyes were sombre, and an indescribable sense of loss filled his heart.
Never in his life had he wanted a woman this much, but she kept shutting him out, again and again.
‘Is her heart still stuck on that husband of hers?’ Jared wondered. ‘We’ve already slept together, and she still wants to stay married to that guy?’
When Natasha stepped out of the walk-in closet, Jared was already up.
He was by the window, wearing a loose robe and smoking a cigarette.
His profile was ridiculously handsome, those sharp, chiseled features making him look like he’d stepped right out of a magazine.
Natasha took a deep breath and walked over to him.
“I’m just borrowing these clothes for now. I hope you don’t mind,” she said.
The dress she’d worn last night got ripped apart by Jared, so there was no way she could put it back on.

And she couldn’t possibly walk out of here naked.
“No need to return them. They’re yours now,” Jared said, his voice low and casual.
All the clothes in this closet were bought just for her in the first place.
