Gabriel’s POV 

Chapter 82: Seduced By Her 

The question haunted my thoughts. Why me and not her boyfriend? What did she see in a broken, old man like me? 

I had nothing to offer her but pain and heartbreak. Exactly what she didn’t need after her last relationship. 

I yanked on a pair of loose shorts from the wardrobe and grabbed my phone, dialing Elena to bring fresh sheets. 

Shortly after, Elena arrived at the deck room. Her eyes landed on the red stains, and she gave me a questioning look. My jaw clenched as I ripped the sheets off the bed, ignoring the way her eyes followed 

every move.

I should have done that before calling her, but she would’ve seen them anyway. What did it matter what Elena thought of my personal life? I’d never cared before, and I wasn’t about to start now.. 

Elena worked quickly, stripping and replacing the sheets with practiced efficiency. When she finished, she faced me with a suspicious look. 

“All done, Mr. Storm. Would you need anything else?” 

“That’ll be all,” I dismissed her curtly, but as she reached the door, I added, “Thank you, Elena.” 

She turned, offering a soft smile before leaving.

Chapter 82; Seduced By Her 

I was grateful Clairessa hadn’t come out of the bathroom. That would’ve made the situation even more 

awkward. 

Returning to the tub, I scooped her into my arms without a word. 

Her wet body pressed against mine, her skin warm and smooth. She gasped softly, her arms instinctively wrapping around my neck as I carried her to the room. 

Once inside, I handed her a towel and grabbed one of my polos from the wardrobe, tossing it her way. 

As she dried herself, I turned away. When I turned back, she was dressed, and I thanked the heavens for 

her modesty. 

I couldn’t trust myself around her. 

Pulling back the fresh duvet back, I gave her a cold, commanding stare. She slid under the blanket slowly. and I covered her with it. 

“Go to bed,” I ordered. 

Just as I turned to walk out, her soft voice in my tracks. 

stopped me 

“Gabriel… you can’t keep ignoring me all night.” 

I stood still, refusing to face her. I needed space, needed time to clear my head.

“I… lied,” she admitted, her voice trembling with sincerity. “And I’m sorry. But to be honest, whether I told you the truth or not wouldn’t have changed anything.” 

Her words made me snap. 

I spun around, closing the distance between us in three long strides. My anger burned as I gripped the bed–frame and leaned over her. 

“Clairessa, don’t fucking play with me.”

She shrank back slightly, her wide eyes searching mine for understanding, but I wasn’t in the mood to give 

“It wasn’t my intention,” she mumbled, her voice trembling. 

“Then why the hell did you lie? Why didn’t you tell me you were a freaking virgin?” 

“I was a virgin,” she teased, her lips curling into a sly smile. “Not anymore.” 

My brows furrowed, her playful tone pushed me further toward the edge. 

“Clairessa, this isn’t funny. Don’t you realize what you’ve done?” 

She shrugged, “I just made love for the first time,” her tone was almost casual and unapologetic. “And it was… surprisingly better than I expected.” 

I scoffed, shaking my head in disbelief. “You don’t get it, do you?” 

“Actually, I do,” she retorted, her tone mocking. “I just didn’t think a man as experienced as yourself would panic because he found he slept with a virgin. Surely I’m not the first virgin you’ve slept with?”

I cursed under my breath. “For fuck’s sake, Clairessa,” I muttered. My eyes bore into hers. “You’re the first untouched woman I’ve been with,” 

Her eyes widened slightly before she chuckled and crossed her arms over her chest, leaning back against the headboard. “Untouched? What do you think this is, the eighties?” 

“You know exactly what I mean,” I shot at her. “I don’t do virgins. Ever. 

Disappointment flashed across her face. “I see. You mentioned earlier, how you like your women mature and experienced.” 

“Don’t twist the conversation,” I fumed. “You know why I don’t sleep with virgins. I explained that to you. So tell me why did you intentionally deceive me?” 

She hesitated, guilt flashing across her face. “Maybe because I knew you’d say no if you knew the truth,” she admitted, her voice cracking. “The last time we made out at your apartment and you sensed I was a virgin, you freaked out. You acted like you’d done something abominable.”
