#Bethany Holt

[melhoreslivrosderomance]

📗A proposta ousada do CEO📗 de Amity

Classificação em estrelas: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Como uma assistente, enviar mensagens ao CEO no meio da noite pedindo filmes adultos foi uma iniciativa ousada.

E Bethany não ficaria surpresa se não recebesse nenhum filme. No entanto, o CEO respondeu que não tinha nenhum filme para compartilhar, mas poderia oferecer uma demonstração ao vivo.

Depois de uma noite cheia de paixão, enquanto Bethany pensava que perderia o emprego, seu chefe propôs: "Case comigo. Por favor, pense nisso."

"Senhor Bates, você está brincando comigo, não é?"

Capítulo 1 Me indique algum vídeo picante

"Bethany, você já se aventurou na cama com alguém?"

Bethany Holt, viajando a negócios e após tomar um pouco de vinho, estava deitada na cama do hotel, prestes a adormecer. A pergunta de Aimee Bates, sua melhor amiga, ecoou na sua mente assim que ela fechou os olhos para descansar.

"É incrível, Bethany! Você deveria aproveitar sua juventude e ter experiências com alguém atraente! Ou então, sempre pode explorar seu próprio corpo sozinha. Não seja tão tímida. Alguns filmes eróticos podem te ajudar a abrir a mente."

Rindo discretamente, Bethany tentou se lembrar de como havia respondido à provocação de Aimee.

Com o efeito do vinho, seu rosto estava corado e seus cabelos escuros se espalhavam pelo travesseiro, lembrando ondas do mar.

Faltando um mês de completar vinte e seis anos, Bethany nunca havia se envolvido romanticamente com alguém. Ela nem sequer havia beijado um homem e muito menos tido experiências mais íntimas.

A sugestão de Aimee não era nova, mas naquela noite, talvez impulsionada pelo álcool, um desejo desconhecido começou a se formar dentro de Bethany.

Se sentindo estranhamente excitada, ela se levantou e, quase sem pensar, buscou o celular. Com a visão nublada por ter removido as lentes, ela vislumbrou o sobrenome da amiga na tela e enviou uma mensagem para Aimee.

"Me indique algum vídeo picante. Estou com vontade de algo realmente provocante", digitou ela, impaciente pela resposta.

O retorno de Aimee foi um simples ponto de interrogação.

Bethany, ainda sob efeito de álcool, respondeu com irritação: "Vamos, não se faça de desentendida! Preciso de algo excitante. Seja um vídeo ou algum cara gostoso. Estou no quarto 1501."

Ela até acrescentou um emoji de beijo na mensagem, brincando.

Após enviar a mensagem, Bethany ficou à espera de uma resposta, mas foi recebida pelo silêncio. Quando estava prestes a ir buscar água, a campainha soou de repente.

Sem pensar muito, ela foi atender. Afinal, Aimee não enviaria um estranho ao seu quarto a essa hora, certo?

Ao abrir a porta, Bethany ficou paralisada.

"Senhor Bates?"

Ele parecia ter saído do banho há pouco. Com os cabelos ainda úmidos e vestindo um roupão de seda preto, ele revelava tatuagens de números escuras em sua clavícula saliente. Os contornos definidos de seu abdômen se perdiam nos limites do roupão.

Sua estatura imponente o fazia dominar a entrada, quase bloqueando a porta com seu corpo. A escuridão parcialmente ocultava seu rosto marcante, e seus olhos não tinham a frieza habitual. Ao contrário, ele a observava como um predador observa sua presa.

"Senhor Bates, como posso ajudar…"

Antes que ela pudesse completar a frase, sentiu as grandes mãos dele agarrando sua nuca. Em seguida, os lábios dele pressionaram os dela com força.

O sabor do vinho invadiu a boca de Bethany.

Antes que pudesse processar o ocorrido, Bethany foi lançada sobre a cama, sentindo o peso do homem sobre ela. Ela vestia uma camisola branca, que apenas inflamava mais o desejo dele.

Era evidente que Jonathan Bates estava embriagado. Do contrário, por que o CEO da Corporação Ensson estaria num quarto de hotel com uma simples assistente?

O primeiro impulso de Bethany foi resistir, mas então ela cessou sua luta. Era a primeira vez que ela estava com um homem. Seu juízo nublado pelo álcool começou a ponderar se estar com alguém tão atraente, rico e poderoso não seria vantajoso.

Jonathan parecia não se lembrar dela, assim como não recordava que foram colegas de classe no ensino secundário durante quase um ano.

Como uma assistente júnior, raramente ela cruzava o caminho do CEO. Ninguém acreditaria que ela tivesse algo com ele.

Após um breve momento de reflexão, ela encontrou coragem para passar os braços ao redor do pescoço dele sob a luz do luar.

📕Coup d'un soir avec le PDG📕

En tant que simple assistante, envoyer un message au PDG en pleine nuit pour demander des films pornos était une initiative audacieuse. Sans surprise, Bethany n'a reçu aucun film. Cependant, le PDG a répondu qu'il n'avait pas de films à partager, mais qu'il pouvait offrir une démonstration en direct. Après une nuit pleine de passion, Bethany était certaine de perdre son emploi. Mais au lieu de cela, son patron lui a proposé : « Épouse-moi, s'il te plaît, réfléchis-y. » « M. Bates, vous vous moquez de moi, n'est-ce pas ? »

Chapitre 1 Donne-moi un homme

« Bethany, as-tu déjà fait l'amour ? »

Bethany Holt, en voyage d'affaires et ayant bu un peu de vin, était couchée dans son lit d'hôtel, sur le point de s'endormir. Mais à peine a-t-elle fermé les yeux que les paroles de sa meilleure amie, Aimee Bates, lui sont revenues à l'esprit.

« C'est incroyable, Bethany. Tu devrais dormir avec un beau garçon pendant que tu es encore jeune ! Ou alors, tu peux toujours "jouer" avec toi-même. Ne sois pas timide. Je te recommande vivement de t'essayer au porno pendant que tu y es. »

Bethany a gloussé toute seule, incapable de se souvenir de la réponse qu'elle avait donnée à Aimee.

En ce moment, Bethany était tellement ivre que son visage délicat a commencé à rougir, ses cheveux épais s'étalant sur les draps comme des algues.

Dans un mois, elle aurait vingt-six ans et, durant toutes ses années sur cette terre, elle n'avait jamais eu de petit ami. Elle n'avait même pas encore embrassé un homme, et encore moins couché avec lui.

Ce n'était pas la première fois qu'Aimee le suggérait, mais aujourd'hui, Bethany a soudainement senti un désir inexplicable s'éveiller en elle ; peut-être à cause des quantités copieuses d'alcool qu'elle avait consommées.

Bethany s'est redressée dans le lit alors que ce sentiment étrange et nouveau devenait insupportable.

Inconsciemment, elle a léché ses lèvres sèches et attrapé son téléphone. Ayant enlevé ses lentilles de contact, sa vision était floue et elle ne pouvait pas voir l'écran clairement, mais lorsqu'elle a vu le nom de famille familier de sa meilleure amie, elle a cliqué dessus et lui a envoyé un message.

« Envoie-moi des recommandations sur le porno. J'ai envie de regarder quelque chose de cochon. »

Quelques secondes plus tard, elle a reçu une réponse. « Quoi ? »

Bethany a froncé les sourcils et, encore ivre, a plaisanté : « Ne joue pas à l'ignorante ! Soit tu m'envoies du porno, soit tu m'envoies un beau mec. Je suis dans la chambre numéro 1501. »

Elle a même ajouté un emoji de baiser à la fin de son message.

Après avoir appuyé sur « envoyer », Bethany a attendu une réponse, mais le téléphone restait silencieux. Au moment où elle s'apprêtait à sortir du lit pour aller boire de l'eau, la sonnette de la porte a soudain retenti.

Elle n'y a pas prêté attention et s'est dirigée vers la porte. Après tout, Aimee n'enverrait pas un homme dans sa chambre au milieu de la nuit, n'est-ce pas ?

Dès qu'elle a ouvert la porte, Bethany s'est raidie comme une planche.

« M. Bates ? »

On dirait qu'il venait de prendre une douche. Ses cheveux courts étaient encore mouillés et il ne portait qu'une robe de chambre en soie noire, exposant plusieurs chiffres sombres sur sa clavicule enfoncée. Il s'agissait d'un tatouage.

Bethany pouvait clairement voir ses muscles abdominaux bien définis, disparaissant dans une ligne en V.

À cause de sa grande taille et de sa forte carrure, il la dominait et bloquait pratiquement l'entrée de la porte. Son beau visage était partiellement dissimulé dans l'obscurité et ses yeux n'étaient plus aussi indifférents et détachés que d'habitude. Au contraire, il ressemblait à une bête affamée, fixant sa proie.

« M. Bates, que puis-je faire pour… ? »

Elle n'a pas eu le temps de finir sa phrase qu'elle a senti une paire de grosses mains lui saisir l'arrière de la tête. La seconde suivante, elle a senti les lèvres de l'homme se presser contre les siennes.

Bethany pouvait sentir la douceur intense du vin sur sa langue.

Avant qu'elle ait pu comprendre ce qui se passait, elle a été jetée dans le lit et l'homme a grimpé sur elle. Elle portait une chemise de nuit blanche, ce qui a encore attisé le désir de l'homme.

Jonathan Bates était manifestement ivre. Sinon, pourquoi le PDG d'Ensson, la filiale du Groupe Bates, serait-il venu dans la chambre d'hôtel d'une modeste assistante ?

Le premier réflexe de Bethany a été de se débattre, mais tout à coup, elle a cessé de le faire. C'était la première fois qu'elle était seule avec un homme. Son esprit gorgé d'alcool a commencé à se dire que coucher avec un homme aussi beau, aussi riche et aussi puissant serait peut-être une bonne chose.

Jonathan ne se souviendrait pas de qui elle était, tout comme il ne s'était pas souvenu qu'ils avaient été camarades de classe au collège pendant près d'un an.

En tant qu'assistante de bas niveau dans l'entreprise, Bethany croisait rarement le chemin du PDG. Personne ne croirait jamais qu'elle a couché avec lui.

Après avoir réfléchi pendant quelques secondes, elle a finalement trouvé le courage de passer ses bras autour du cou de Jonathan au clair de lune.

Imogen is a true believer, while Natalie sees ghost stories as nothing but pure fun. Then, Imogen suddenly passes away from an undiagnosed heart condition that no one saw coming, and Natalie is left to take on the summer before senior year alone. Without Imogen, Natalie throws herself into her senior project. Her passion is still horror, so she plans to spend her summer back at The Harlow Hotel recording fun fake footage that will get her on the teen ghost hunting show of her dreams. And her plans would be a lot less complicated if Leander, her irritatingly attractive arch rival from school, wasn’t working on his senior project at the very same hotel. The longer Natalie stays at the Harlow Hotel, the more she realizes that Leander might be helpful for her project. After all, she could use an extra hand to help record her fake footage. But, when strange things start happening at the Harlow, Natalie wonders, could there really be something to these ghosts after all?

Then Ruby finds out her father has been living a secret life as a delivery person for a magical underworld—he “jumps” train lines to help deliver packages for a powerful family.

In an effort to protect her father and save all that remains of her mother, Ruby volunteers to take over her dad’s station and start jumping train lines. But this is no ordinary job. Ruby soon realizes that the trains are much more than doors to romance and they’re also doors to trafficking illicit goods and fierce rivalries. As she becomes more entangled with the magical underworld and the mysterious boy who’s helped her to learn magic, she realizes too late that she may be in over her head. Can she free her father and save her mother’s house? Or has she only managed to get herself pulled into the dangerous web her father was trapped in?

[fundieshaderoom]

This is just a suggestion and feel free to ignore! Something I think would be helpful would be to include at the top of your "Fundies and Adjacent I Follow" type posts a summary of what makes them fundie or adjacent. I haven't heard of the majority of them, so I can't tell if it's a friend of the Duggars, someone with a blog that spouts hate in the name of Christianity, a vlogging family, or just a random family that just so happens to have a bunch of kids. Maybe for the lesser known follow up pregnancy or engagement announcements where most fundie followers would go "who is this...?" linking back to the main post? Thanks for all you do!

Yeah okay alright she can go up with Bethany Erin Holt on the Fictional Bethany Wall of Approval 📌

Before the blog went live, I read ALMOST all of the most successful and acclaimed novels by transfemmes. But there’s one glaring outlier missing from my repertoire. I’ve been procrastinating on it since literally 2022, but not anymore. That book is Manhunt by Gretchen Felker-Martin. 👀
