When They Beg I Rise (Lemira) novel Chapter 914

She was suddenly hit with the memory of their very first time. Even though she had been a bundle of nerves, she remembered precisely how prominent he was everywhere.

Stella tried to bolt, but he grabbed her ankle and dragged her right back.

Caleb dipped down to kiss her. "Too late to run now."

He had been plotting this revenge ever since they were sparring at Iron Haven Fitness.

Stella tried to argue, but every word she had was shattered by his relentless drive, reducing her to breathless, broken gasps.

His body was like a roaring furnace, making it impossible for her to escape his grasp.

Right now, only one word echoed in her mind: Regret!

She never should have listened to Janice's terrible advice, and she absolutely shouldn't have doubted Caleb's stamina.

The next morning.

In the master bedroom.

Lemira woke up with a yawn, but the moment she stretched her arm out, she realized something was very wrong.

Her arm was completely bare, and it felt like she wasn't wearing a single piece of clothing.

Slow realization washing over her, Lemira turned over and came face to face with the strikingly handsome man lying beside her, his arm draped possessively over her waist.

The heat rushed to her cheeks. She had completely blanked out on what happened after they got back to the apartment last night.

But because she was always so comfortable around Orion, her guard had been entirely down.

"You're awake?"

Orion opened his eyes and gently pinched her cheek. "Do you remember what you did last night?"

Lemira met his dark, profound gaze, racking her brain to recall the previous evening's events.

She drew a total blank.

At that exact moment, the hand on her waist casually slid upward.

Lemira quickly pinned his hand down. "Nice try. Shouldn't I be the one asking what happened last night? Why am I completely naked?"

"Because you threw up all over yourself. And me."

Orion's utterly calm tone left Lemira with absolutely no room to argue.

She lowered her eyes. "Okay, fine."

"Does your head still hurt?"

"No, I'm okay."

Orion pulled her closer, and Lemira ended up sprawling right on top of him. Panic flared in her chest—she was completely bare.
