Falling For The True Heiress

I stood up and pushed my chair back. It scraped against the floor, making a soft but unpleasant sound in the quiet room.

"I’m going home," I said quietly.

Camila stared at me for a moment before asking, "Do you want me to come with you?"

I shook my head.

"That won’t be necessary, Cam. I will go and face whatever happens alone for now, alright?"

Camila let out a deep breath. She clearly wasn’t happy about it, but after a moment, she nodded.

"Fine. If you say so. But remember to call me if something happens."

I nodded. "I will."

I walked back to the sofa and picked up my bag.

"Bye, guys. See you in the night."

"I hate you, Amelia, for saying that," Caleb said as he walked out of the gaming room.

I laughed softly. "I love you too."

I waved at him before heading toward the door.

Just before I opened it, I stopped and looked back at Camila.

She was already watching me. There was a worried look in her eyes.

I gave her a small smile and waved.

She nodded and waved back.

I pushed the door open, stepped outside, and closed it behind me.

The cool evening breeze immediately brushed against my face.

I closed my eyes for a second and breathed in.

The air smelled fresh, with a faint scent of grass and the food from the nearby houses. Somewhere in the distance, I could hear cars moving along the road and the occasional sound of a horn.

I walked toward my car and pressed the key fob.

Beep.

Beep.

Beep.

The headlights flashed, lighting up the driveway for a moment.

I opened the driver’s door and slid inside.

I dropped my bag onto the passenger seat and rested my head against the headrest.

For a few seconds, I simply sat there.

My mind went back to Janina.

I didn’t know why the thought bothered me so much.

I sighed and lifted my head.

I started the engine. The car hummed to life, and the dashboard lights came on.

I shifted into reverse and slowly backed out before pulling onto the driveway.

There was some evening traffic, but it wasn’t too bad.

I drove quietly, my hands resting firmly on the steering wheel as the last bit of daylight disappeared from the sky.

After several minutes, I finally reached the mansion.

I drove through the gate and headed toward the parking area.

But just as I was about to park, something caught my attention.

Someone was sitting in front of the main door.

I slowed down.

I leaned forward, trying to get a better look through the windshield.

My eyes widened slightly.

Sylvia.

What was she doing outside?

I frowned.

She was sitting there alone, with her hands resting in her lap.

Why hadn’t she gone inside?

I drove into the parking lot and parked the car.

The moment I turned off the engine, the quiet inside the car returned.

I looked toward the mansion again.

Sylvia suddenly stood up. She had been waiting for me.

My eyebrows pulled together.

She started walking toward my car.

I rested back against the seat and watched her through the windshield.

There was something strange about the way she was walking.

She wasn’t rushing.

She wasn’t smiling.

Her face was calm, but there was something in her expression that I couldn’t quite understand.

A few seconds later, she reached my car.

She knocked on the window.

Tap.

Tap.

I rolled down the window.

"Babe, what are you doing outside?"

She didn’t answer. Instead, she opened my door.

I blinked in confusion.

"Sylvia, what—"

Before I could finish, she reached for my hand and pulled me out of the car.

I stared at her. "What are you doing?"

She still didn’t answer. She walked around the car and opened the back door.

Then she looked at me.

"Babe, get in."

I stared at her for a moment before looking at the open back door and back at her again.

"What are we doing there?"

"You will know when you get in," she said calmly.

I furrowed my eyebrows.

Her voice was calm.

There was something about the way she was behaving that made the little hairs on my arms rise.

Weird.

Sylvia was acting absolutely weird.

I looked toward the mansion.

Everything seemed normal.

The lights were on and the house was quiet.

Nothing looked out of place.

I turned back to Sylvia.

She was still standing there, waiting.

"What are you hiding?" I asked.

A small smile finally appeared on her lips.

"Get in first."

I sighed.

Whatever she was planning, she clearly wasn’t going to tell me.

I climbed into the back seat. The leather felt cool beneath my hands.

Sylvia got in after me and closed the door.

Click.

The sound of the lock seemed strangely loud in the quiet car.

She reached over and wrapped her arms around my waist, pulling me closer until there was barely any space between us.

"Babe, I need you right now, please."

I glanced around the car, my eyes moving toward the windows and then the rearview mirror.

The windows were tinted, which gave us some privacy, but I still couldn’t relax. Not with Janina around. The thought of her suddenly appearing—or somehow seeing us—made my stomach tighten.

I turned back to Sylvia, ready to tell her we couldn’t take any chances.

But before I could say a word, she leaned closer.

Her face brushed along the side of my jaw, slow and gentle. I felt the warmth of her breath against my skin as she moved toward my cheek. The faint scent of her perfume filled the small space between us, making it harder to think clearly.

She continued upward until her nose almost touched mine.

"Babe," she whispered.

Her voice was soft, almost pleading.

A warm shiver ran through me, spreading from my chest to the rest of my body.

I swallowed and held her gaze, my heart beating faster than it should have.

"Please," she whispered again, her breath warm against my lips. "Let me in."

Without waiting for an answer I didn’t even have time to give, Sylvia leaned in and captured my lips.

The kiss was sudden, hungry, and full of a desperation that made my thoughts scatter.

My lips parted before I even realized what I was doing.

What was wrong with me?

Why did my body react to her before my mind could catch up?

She swept the roof of my mouth with the tip of her tongue, sending a strange shiver through me.

"Mmm!" I gasped, the sound escaping before I could stop it. She seemed to swallow the soft gasp, continuing her slow, overwhelming exploration with a confidence that left me completely breathless.

It felt unexpectedly good—far better than I wanted to admit.

She reached out and rubbed my breast with her palm, sending an immediate shiver down my spine. My body reacted before I could stop it, and my hips jerked against the seat as a startled breath escaped my lips.

The warmth of her touch sent a rush through me, and I felt my muscles tense beneath the sudden wave of sensation. My fingers curled against the seat as I tried to hold on to whatever control I had left.

Sylvia kissed me as though she had been waiting all day for this moment. Every time I thought she would pull away, she moved closer instead, leaving me breathless and confused by how easily she could make me forget everything around us.

The small space inside the car suddenly felt much warmer.

My heartbeat thudded loudly in my ears.

When her hand moved to my waist and held me firmly against her, a shiver ran down my spine. My body reacted before I could stop it, and Sylvia noticed immediately.

She finally pulled away.

A small, satisfied smirk appeared on her face as she looked at me.

"I love when your body gives you away."

I stared at her, breathing heavily. My chest rose and fell as I tried to calm my racing heartbeat.

"Hungry beast," I muttered, though my voice lacked the strength I wanted.

Sylvia smiled.

She leaned closer again, her eyes holding mine.

"Then maybe," she whispered, "I should show you just how dangerous this hungry beast can be."

My breath caught.

And suddenly, I wasn’t sure whether I wanted her to stop.

Sylvia smiled and closed her eyes, taking in the faint scent of my perfume.

"You really smell nice, and I love that."

Before I could respond, she leaned closer, bending toward my neck.

My body reacted before my mind could catch up. I tilted my head slightly to the side, instinctively giving her more room as she continued her teasing exploration.

Her tongue traced slowly along my neck, moving upward toward my cheek before drifting back down again. The warmth of her breath brushed against my cool skin, raising goosebumps along my arms.

"Mmm," I gasped quietly, my head falling back against the seat.

Sylvia followed the curve of my throat, and I swallowed hard at the warmth of her tongue against my skin. My heart hammered against my ribs as she moved to the other side of my neck and lingered there, her lips pressing against my sensitive skin.

A shiver ran through me when her teeth grazed the spot, followed by the soft warmth of her breath.

My whole body trembled at the sensation, every touch leaving me increasingly breathless and overwhelmed.

I could already feel myself shamelessly dripping from the sensation of her tongue. The warmth spreading through me as her touch sent a dizzying shiver down my spine.

"Ahhh!" I cried out, unable to hold back any longer. "Sylvia, please... touch me."
