Falling hard for the bad boy's charms isn't such a good idea... especially if said bad boy is your current boyfriend's older brother. What if the bad boy in question is your lecturer in college? Even worse, huh? Or is it more exciting? Read on this story of love, sex, deceit and betrayal and find out how it goes for Natasha.
And it's the way Fate comes in unannounced that can change everything.
Natasha had her life ahead of her, but already had it all planned out. It was the first time she was spending the night at her boyfriend's. They had been together for almost three months, and already she could barely stand the thought of being apart.
She opened the door, expecting Carl bringing back food, only to find a stranger. Said stranger was wearing dark jeans that hung low on his hips, a light blue shirt that stretched across his chest nicely, and a leather jacket that completed his bad boy look. He had messy dark brown hair that made him look like he had just gotten out of the bed, his lips were curved into a smirk that had her holding back a gasp, and his midnight blue eyes were taking her in appraisingly.
He was sin incarnated.
"Hey," her voice sounded shaky even to her own ears. She shook her head inwardly, steeled herself and carried on, "Can I help you?"
"You can let me in for starters," the guy's smirk widened and she had to grip the door for fear of falling. How could anyone be so devilishly sexy?
"I beg your pardon?" She bit out, forcing outrage onto her words, when all she wanted to do was do as she was told. Maybe she could get to sample this exotic beauty.
Bad Natasha! She chastised herself.
"Well, it's only fair," he pushed the door open with his hand, ignoring her startled gasp, "I kind of own the house."
"Huh?"
"The name's Daniel by the way," he walked in, dragging two large suitcases behind him, his laptop case dangling by his side, supported by his strong shoulder, "I'm Carl's older brother."
She had heard all about him from Carl. He was a player par excellence, a troublemaker on his best days, a good-for-nothing who had no notion of responsibility, and many other things according to her boyfriend. He had, however, failed to mention he was such a hunk. The man was temptation on legs, and despite her feelings for Carl, it was all she could do not to fling herself at him.
Right then, all the plans she had previously made crumbled to ashes in front of her eyes.
It scared the hell out of her, but excited her to no end.
As her best friend often told her, she had always been a goody-two-shoes. Some part of her thought it might just be the perfect opportunity to change that.

"You're such a conceited, arrogant bastard!" In a heartbeat, he had my back against the wall. "I'm your conceited, arrogant bastard," he countered intensely. He was so close I could feel his body heat, yet not close enough to touch. I dampened my lips mechanically and his eyes followed the gesture hungrily. He closed the gap between us and leaned in a little so that his breath caressed my cheek, "I'm also very persistent. I always get what I want." I saw the unveiled determination in his eyes and my throat suddenly felt really dry. I gulped down nervously as a shiver of pure, unadulterated, unwanted want went down my spine. My heart was drumming against my ribcage, and I was soon taking small shallow breaths. "You're not unaffected by me," he whispered against the soft skin beneath my ear, while smothering it with butterfly kisses, "that's good to know." I could almost feel the smirk in his words. ... .. . She was a loner, and she liked it that way. She lived by one sole rule: No attention, no boys, no drama, no troubles.

Add to that the fact that he's a werewolf, all strong and possessive male, and he was damn proud about it. To her utter despair, he took interest in her... her life shall never be the same again.
