The last thing Reid King had expected when going on a business trip to Dubai was to fall into bed with her haughty, conceited boss, Gabriel Sullivan. It was definitely a mistake—one that should never have happened. But after a few nights of passion with irreparable consequences, she finds out she is pregnant, and her world is turned completely upside down. Gabriel Sullivan loved his single, carefree solitary life and all the things that came with it: the beautiful woman,the luxury, and the exotic destinations. He was in no rush to settle down, especially not with his employee, even though he couldn't stop thinking about her. Through an unexpected turn of events, she turns up pregnant, and he suddenly realizes he is going to be a father. He knew he had to take responsibility for his actions. He proposes a deal. Though Reid had no interest in Gabriel Sullivan’s money, she couldn't say no to accepting his help. He had the financial means to take care of both her and her baby. But living under the same roof as Gabriel, she realizes she wants more than what he is offering. Will she be able to convince him to let down his guard and finally find true love?.
View MoreGabriel Sullivan woke up with a start, feeling groggy due to lack of sleep and jet lag of the day before. The memories of the night came rushing to him in quick succession.He sighed, he so wanted to punch himself right now. What had come over him last night. Reid was his employee, a very low level one at that and Gabriel had never messed around with his employees coupled with the fact that she was Steve's precious sister.This could definitely lead to a problem between them in future if he ever found out and he had no one to blame but himself.He wondered about Reid,he had never felt any feelings of interest or attraction from her, infact he sometimes felt she disliked him. She had always treated him with an aloof air of indifference.Now he wondered if it was all just for show, women around him had often feigned indifference when they were attracted to him.They preferred to be chased.“Was she one of them?”, he mused.Look how easily she had fallen in to his bed.More importantly, h
She had slept with him. Her mind was still reeling from what had happened just a few hours ago. What was she going to blame, the stress and exhaustion of the day, the alcohol or maybe temporary insanity. She must have lost her mind. So many thoughts ran through her head on succession.Jerking her thoughts away from questions she couldn't answer,she headed towards the bathroom pulling off her crumpled clothes on the way. She filled up the bathtub, setting the water temperature to a warmer temperature. She watched as it filled with water, the trickling sound of the water cooled her fraying nerves.Her mind began racing again. How was she going to face him tomorrow?. Now that it had happened,she wasn't sure she was cool enough to pretend nothing had happened between them.“Well you should have thought of that before you slept with him”, her mind chatised her.All the rational reasoning she had locked in at the back of her mind were finally making an entrance. This was a completely uncha
What was she doing? She couldn't control herself any longer,it was as if rational thought had left her. Her body was acting on its own and she couldn't stop it. She knew it was a mistake the moment his lips came in contact with her lips.The intensity of the kiss stunned her. She could feel his eyes on her, his hands trailing over her body and sliding off her clothes with intense focus, deepening the kiss.All rational thought disappeared in that moment and she couldn't think of anything else.She tangled her hands between his hair and pulled him closer. His hands leaves her clothes as he carries her to the bed. He trailed kisses all over her face and body connecting his lips fiercely with mine. He slids his body on top of her and his kiss begins to deepen. He lifts his head to stare at her with full concentration. His stare brought a full burst of desire within her. She had never felt this way before.“You want me?,”Say you want me”,He whispered into her ears bringing her almost to
He was staring at her. While she’d been daydreaming he had looked up and happened to catch her eye. Even from across the room,she could feel his smoldering gaze.He held her eyes for a few more seconds before he looked away. Reid thought she saw a spark in his eyes. It was gone in a flash,and she wondered if her brain had tricked her into seeing things since she was exhausted and hungry. Shrugging it off her thoughts,she walked over to the exquisite dinner table where she had left her phone and began checking her emails and text messages.She had a couple missed calls from her brother ,Steve, and a message from her friend ,Maya, and another one from a store to deliver the package she had ordered. She called her brother first, knowing he must have been worried as he didn't hear from her all day. She loved her brother but sometimes he was such a worrywart. She hoped one day he’d stopped worrying about her and focus on his relationship and life with his fiancee who was also her best f
“Freshen up, Miss Reid, and meet me back in the living room in thirty minutes. We have a lot of work to do”, Gabriel Sullivan commanded pouring himself a drink with one hand and removing his tie with the other hand.Reid King stared at her boss through tired eyes filled with resentment she had learned to hide quite well during the short period she began working for him. Nevertheless, she was tired. They had landed at the airport that morning and had gone from one meeting after the next and now had only just arrived at the hotel they were staying at and all she wanted was a hot shower and a good night's sleep for tomorrow's busy schedule.Sadly,Mr Gabriel wasn't done working, and that meant no sleep for Reid until he said so.“Yes, Mr. Gabriel”, She said keeping her voice emotionless. He acknowledged her response with a nod and began looking through the contents of a stock market pamphlet with intense focus.When Reid learned that she would be sharing the penthouse suite of one of the
