Filed To Story: Cheating with My Boyfriend's Best Friend Novel Read Online (Olive & Aaron)
“But-”
“Now.”
“…Fine.” Eliott compromised for the stubborn Cinder.
I was still thinking about the conversion when I got back to my room.
“What are you thinking about? You’re so focused that you didn’t even notice when I kissed your cheek.” Aaron held my face in his hands and planted gentle kisses on my eyelids and lips.
I pushed him away and crossed my arms over my chest. I asked the question that had been gnawing at my mind: “Aaron, be honest with me. Why did you invest in my research project?”
He rested his chin on my head for a moment, then I no- ticed that his lips were curled in a relaxed smile. “Because your project has a lot of promise.”
This project is my life’s work, so of course I think my research will have a lot of applications in the future, but…
Eliott is right. The main value of the project right now is academic, so it may be a while before the technology has commercial value.
I used to think that Aaron was a smart businessman who would not mix his emotions into his work, but now I’m a bit unsure.
Before this, I was a bit full of myself and thought Aaron invested in my research because he truly believed in it. When I thought about it, I knew that was impossible. Also, when he invested, our relationship was a bit complicated. I was still Vincent’s girlfriend back then…
When Aaron moved to kiss the corners of my lips again, I placed a hand over his mouth. “I don’t believe you.”
“Okay.” He shrugged and nipped my hand before giving my fingers erotic kisses and languid licks. “It really is be- cause…”
“I invested millions of dollars because it was for you. Are you touched?”
“Quit messing around and tell me the truth.” I shoved his face away.
“Well, that’s the truth. I invested in your project because of you.” He wore an innocent expression, even though he knew I was angry. “But you’re only one factor. Our family do- nates a lot of money every year, and you know that donations have always been a great way to avoid taxes.”
“I merely invested the money that I planned to invest into an Antarctica penguin conservation into your lab instead.” He gave my finger one more gentle bite and slowly got up off the bed to wrap me in a warm embrace. He let go of my hand and gave me a loving kiss. “Is that truth satisfactory?”
A penguin conservation in Antarctica?
That probably meant that my parents would need to live off of instant ramen for a year, but I was satisfied.
It was a relief to find out that Aaron wasn’t investing in my research only because I was the one doing it. I’m not one of those squeaky-clean girls who doesn’t care about money. In fact, I’ve been short on cash before, so I love money. But I don’t want to bear such a heavy burden at the start of a rela- tionship with my boyfriend as my main investor.
It makes me feel like Aaron is my ‘sugar daddy.’
“Yes, I’m satisfied. I’m glad that I don’t have to call you sugar daddy.”
Me opening my mouth to tell Aaron the truth about how I felt just provided a gateway for his tongue to slide past my lips.
Aaron stifled a laugh as his big hands grabbed at my a*s and his tongue probed dominantly into the depths of my mouth. My lips were forced to open wider, and I felt saliva dribble out from the edges of my lip.
“Well, I don’t mind being your sugar daddy…”
The trail of saliva slid down my cheek, tickling a little. I was about to wipe it off with my hand, but Aaron was one step ahead of me. He used his index finger to wipe away the spit.
The atmosphere was getting pretty steamy, and I realized that tonight would just be a repeat of last night, so I shoved Aaron away. “Stop that. You need to get up early tomorrow, so no fooling around tonight.”
“Oh, are you disobeying me? How is daddy going to pun- ish his bad girl for her behavior?”
I rolled my eyes. “Daddy’ should get some sleep. You need to take good care of yourself, especially at your age.”
“If you talk to daddy like that, aren’t you worried that dad- dy won’t give you any more money for your tuition?” Aaron was having fun with this little ‘game’. I opened my mouth to taunt him and point out that my scholarship was more than enough to cover my tuition, but I was cut off by a harsh slap on my ass. I instantly let out a loud moan, changing my tone.
When I woke up the next day, Aaron was already out of bed. I heard the sound of running water from the bathroom.
It didn’t take long for the sound to stop, and the bath- room door was pushed open. A freshly clean Aaron dried his hair with a towel as he walked toward me. “Morning, babe! How did you sleep last night?”
I grumbled. “I think I would’ve slept better if you hadn’t messed around.”
He ignored my complaint and leaned over me to plant a kiss on my cheek. “Get ready, we need to buy some camping stuff later.”
“I was in the middle of getting up.” I got out of bed and noticed Aaron staring at me. I looked down to find myself bare, except for Aaron’s h*ckeys dotting my skin.
His habits in bed were absolutely awful. It was like he was a dog marking his territory. I had no clue how his previous lovers put up with him.
I glared at Aaron in disgust, and he rubbed his nose. “I’ll go make you some coffee.”
I hopped in the bathroom for a quick shower. When I was done, Aaron was already standing in the doorway, waiting for me. He had a hairdryer in his hands. “Come here, I’ll dry your hair for you!”
Fantastic!
I said thank you, took the towel off of my head, and walked over. I perched on the stool in front of the vanity and looked at my blazing red hair in the mirror. It was wet and clumped together, but it slowly separated into distinct, flow- ing locks as Aaron dried it.
He patiently combed every strand of my hair with his fin- ger, as if he was handling the most precious treasure in the world.
I glanced at his blue eyes in the mirror. They were deep, peaceful pools of love. The gentleness I saw made my heart flutter.
I watched him silently as he stared at my hair. At this mo- ment, I thought I was the happiest woman in the world.
Once he finished, he arranged my hair so that it flowed down my shoulders like a river of lava and embraced me from behind. He smiled at me through the mirror and spoke in a wistful tone. “Babe, you’re so good for me in bed. Next time we do it in front of the mirror, you should watch yourself so you can see how beautiful you are, okay?”
Aaron was a handsome man who was capable of accom- plishing anything. Why did he have to have such a dirty mouth? He could instantly ruin a perfect atmosphere with a single sentence!
I was so angry that I glared at him, shoved him away, and stomped toward the door. “Aren’t we going shopping? Then let’s go!”
“Haha,” he laughed from behind me. He caught up to me in two long strides before grasping my hand and walking by my side.
Last night we were so busy that we didn’t even notice it was snowing outside.
The tiny s*owflakes floated down from overhead. Some found their way past my collar and onto my skin. I shuttered from the cold.
Aaron paused before stepping in front of me. He wrapped me in his down jacket and placed his wide-brimmed hat atop my head.
“No, I look like a dumb penguin,” I protested, moving to take off the hat.
My hands were stopped by Aaron, who kissed my palm and said,
“Well, good thing I like dumb penguins.”
“…” This idiot.
