With less than two hours to his departure, Sean ran around making some calls until he was able to buy a ticket for Rebecca, at an extremely high price.He races back to her, holding the ticket triumphantly. “I got it!”Rebecca jumped up from the seat. “How did you even find one of these?”He just smiled. “Got lucky, I guess.” The truth was he saw a man who decided to cancel his flight but persuaded him to buy the ticket instead of getting refunded. It was risky but worth it.“What about clothes?” She reminded him. “I don't have any luggage with me, nothing.”He easily waved off her concerns. “We can easily get you some things when we land, it's too late to go back home and grab some things anyway but in the meantime, you can use mine.”“That’s sweet, thanks.” Her face turned red, and she tucked a stray strand of hair away from her face staring intently at the floor. “Sean excused himself to get some snacks and when he came back, Rebecca was fast asleep.Cradling her against his chest

A quick shower made Moriah feel good again and in less than an hour, she was dressed up and ready to go to the company.Caesar wasn't picking up her calls, so she was clueless about what was going on. The only reason why he would schedule such an impromptu meeting is if he had something important to share but if he did, shouldn't it have been run through by her?It was a bit confusing.As she rushed out the door to where her driver was waiting, Adriana called out to her. “Mrs Lambert! You forgot your coat!”Pressing a hand to her chest, she stopped to take it from her. “Oh, thank you! It is freezing out here.”“Do you have any idea what the meeting is about?” She asked.Moriah shook her head. “Not a clue. I have to go now or I'll be late.”“Stay safe!” Adriana called out, hanging back as Moriah rushed into the safety of the bulletproof car, standing by the curb as she watched them go.Fortunately, Moriah didn't have much time to dwell on the mystic nature of the meeting because as soo

Rebecca's eyes bulged when Sean kissed her and she froze in place, not sure how to act or what to do. Sean senses the resistance and immediately backpedaled, thinking he read the room wrong and made a mistake. Groaning, he slapped a hand over a face briefly closing his eyes in shame. “Oh, my gosh. I'm so sorry, I don't know what came over me. I shouldn't have done that.” His hands were raised, his eyes filled with apologies. “Believe me when I say, I had no intentions of doing that when I invited you over. I-”Rebecca's cool touch on his skin calmed him down, stopping him from rambling. “It's fine, Sean.” She bit her lip, not sure if she should say anything more. Should she tell him that her heart sang for joy when their lips touched and all she wanted was more?Should she tell him that the only reason why she froze up wasn't because she was disgusted or repulsed but due to surprise?Unfortunately, the pause went on for too long making things awkward so Sean decided to retreat.“Um,

Standing the freezing cold, Chloe looked left and right for any sign of Luke.His car wasn't here yet. Rolling her palms together to ward off the cold, she took a quick glance at her watch biting her lower lip.Twenty minutes late.“Chloe!” she heard him yell from down the street, waving his hands like a madman. He had on a leather jacket and a longer coat that reached his legs and a fitted jean that molded the shape of his thighs. To finish off the look, loafers donned his feet. Jumping out of his car midway, he raced to get to her wrapping his hands around her.“I'm so sorry I'm late, the car broke down on my way here.” He apologized, rubbing his arms over hers. “Hope you aren't pissed off?”Actually, she was but Luke looked so torn up over it that she decided to let it go. “It's fine. I would like to get out of the cold though.”He practically carried her into his car, cranking the heat up to the highest.Chloe slowly felt the cold ebb away and she could slowly feel that she was re

Chloe avoided all contact with Luke after that disaster of an outing the other day, staying holed up in the house until Maeve grew sick of her.Chloe could hear the sigh from a mile away before Maeve plopped her ass on the chair next to her.“Okay, what the hell is going on?”Chloe had the clueless look down to an art form. “What do you mean?”“Don't you pretend to not know what I'm talking about, young lady!” Maeve said in a mock stern manner.It was such a good imitation of her that Chloe burst out laughing, the sound effectively dissolving the tension. “Now, that was a good one.”“Don't try to change the subject, Chlo.” She gave her a pointed look. “Luke has been blowing up my phone for the last couple of hours, saying that you're not picking up his calls.”Uh-oh, that was exactly what I was afraid of.“Maeve…” Chloe drew her name out.“I know it's none of my business but the poor guy's in love with you!” Maeve exclaimed. “He trails about you like a lovesick puppy, and you don't ev
