“What are you talking about!” Claire cried, completely bewildered.

Amanda chimed in right after, “Sweetheart, don’t tell me Riley came to see you again, pestering you to get back together? That is absolutely not happening! I will not let that jinx back into our family!”

“Mom!” Bryce glared at Amanda, his voice shaking with fury. “Don’t ever let me hear you say another bad word about Riley! The jinx you’re talking about saved my life! If it weren’t for Riley, I would have drowned in that river!”

With that, Bryce stormed off to his room on the second floor, ignoring both Amanda and Claire.

The room was filled with a cold, lonely silence.

He walked into the bathroom and splashed cold water on his face, then stared at his haggard reflection in the mirror.

The vibrant, confident man he once was had been replaced by this weary, broken shell.

Murphy Tech was in chaos, and to make matters worse, Bella was pregnant with his child!

Why did she have to get pregnant at a time like this?

No matter what, he couldn’t let her keep this baby. There was no way!

Sebastian brought Riley back to his apartment.

The drinks had definitely hit her hard. As she got out of the car, she swayed, falling against him for support.

Something, protective and fierce stirred in Sebastian’s chest. Riley, always so fiercely independent, was now trusting him completely in her vulnerable state. The weight of her trust both humbled and thrilled him.

It was as if he were her one and only!

“Let me carry you upstairs,” he murmured.

“No, I… I can walk myself,” she slurred, the words tumbling out in a way he found utterly adorable.

Without another word, Sebastian swept her up into his arms. “I want to carry you upstairs,” he said softly. “Let me, okay?”

Biley giggled. She didn’t refuse this time, instead wrapping her arms around his neck and resting her head on his shoulder.

Once inside the apartment, Sebastian gently placed her on the bed. “I’ll go get you something to help with the hangover.”

“Don’t,” Riley said, grabbing his hand. Then, with a surprising burst of strength, she pulled him down, pressing him onto the bed beneath her.

“Riley?” Sebastian raised an eyebrow, looking up at her. “Do you know what you’re doing?”

“Of course I do. I’m drunk, but I’m not out of my mind,” Riley declared. As the words left her mouth, her lips found his, brushing against them in a slow, deliberate tease.

Her hands moved with a natural confidence, first pulling his tie loose, then unbuttoning his shirt one button at a time.

His chest was slowly revealed, inch by inch.

Her fingers found their way beneath his shirt, drawn to his cool skin. The contact was a relief against her alcohol–warmed body. His breath caught at her touch, and desire coursed through his veins, threatening to overwhelm his control.

“Riley, I want to…” He started to push himself up, but she gently pushed him back down.

“Don’t move,” Riley whispered. “Tonight, I want to be in 376

“You?” Sebastian blinked, surprised.

“Yes. When you take the lead, things can get a little intense,” Riley explained. The memory of their last encounter, which had left her delightfully sore, was still fresh in her mind. “So it’s better if I do it myself.”

Sebastian chuckled, both amused and aroused. Still, he did as she wished. “Alright, you’re in charge. What do you want me to do?”

Riley narrowed her eyes playfully. “Just lie there and be good,” she murmured. “And…”

Her gaze fell upon the tie she had tossed aside earlier. She picked it up, crossed his wrists, and began to bind them together.

He obediently let her tie him up. “Do you really think a single tie is enough to hold me?” he asked, his voice low and husky.

“It won’t be that easy for you to break free,” Riley said with a grin. Her cheeks were flushed from drinking, giving her face a warm glow that took his breath away. “Besides…”

After securing his wrists, she tied the ends of the silk into a 476. perfect bow. “Lara said that tying a man up in bed can be a

special kind of fun. So I wanted to try…”

Sebastian’s eyes burned with a fire of their own. Would she even remember saying that when she sobered up?

And what other ridiculous things had Lara been telling her?

“Promise me,” Sebastian’s voice was rough with emotion as he looked up at her, “that I’ll be the only one you’ll ever do this with.”
