The Billionaire's Dirty Obsession
“Tell me, Scarlett. What do you want?” His voice is a growl — low, filthy — fingers teasing beneath the lace of my panties, just enough to make me squirm.
“Say it. I want to hear you beg for it.” He murmurs the words, lips brushing the shell of my ear.
“We shouldn’t be doing this…” I whisper, breathless, my body already arching into his touch, betraying every word I just said.
Then his fingers slide into my soaked folds, and a sharp moan escapes my lips.
He chuckles. Dark. Wicked. “Then why are you so wet for me?”
—
All Scarlett Bennett wants after a messy divorce that nearly destroyed her reputation and forced her out of the career she loved is a fresh start with absolutely no complications.
Even when she wakes up dazed after a reckless, mind-blowing one-night stand, she tells herself it was just sex. A mistake. A moment of weakness that would never happen again.
Until she walks into her new office… and sees him.
The man who had her spread across his bed, begging for more. The man she now works for.
Lucien Whitmore.
Lucien is all sharp edges and sin. He's a Billionaire. Brilliant. Mysterious and every bit as dangerous as he is irresistible.
He is everything she should avoid — powerful, untouchable, and entirely too used to getting what he wants. And what he wants… is her.
She swore it would never happen again.
But when he’s got her bent over his desk, whispering praise in a voice that makes her knees weak, she forgets every reason she ever had to resist him.
She’s not just a part of his empire now. She’s his favorite sin. And if the world finds out?
They’ll both burn for it.

Chapter: 90. Wide AwakeLucien was leaning back on the couch, an empty glass in hand, watching me beyond the warm lighting of the room like some god-damned freak.It startled me at first.Who the fuck does that?I blinked, clearing the remnants of sleep, but I stayed on my side on the bed, not making any attempt to move. I was still sleepy and tired and not interested in entertaining him at all. But a part of me—much bigger than I’d have liked—was elated to see him here.He slowly set the glass down and leaned forward. “Good morning.” His voice was deeper than usual and raspy. It made my lower belly tingle treacherously.“What are you doing here?” I murmured, rubbing my hand on the bed in search for my phone. I found it and winced when the brightness of the screen hit my eyes. I squinted at the time. “It’s five in the morning.”I dropped the device and took him in properly. On the coffee table before him was a bottle of what I suspected was whiskey and next to it was his laptop. My eyes narrowed. He worked t

Chapter: 89. A little irritation.Talia had noticed me watching them, and her smile widened by a fraction. I hated that my eyes shifted a second too late and gave her that opportunity.I looked away, staring down at the horses getting geared for the race.My shoulders tensed when they stopped on our row. Honestly, I hoped they’d seat somewhere else, but the universe had other plans.“What did we miss?” Talia’s honey voice made my stomach drop with irritation.Cassian shifted beside me. “Nothing that would interest you. Enjoy your reunion?”“Very much.” Talia looked at me as she said that, as though she was trying to make a statement. A statement which was very clearly received.My gaze stayed fixed ahead even as they took the seats on my end. Lucien sat right beside me, while Talia at the edge beside him, cuddling against his chest like she belonged there. I mean, he let her so, of course she did.I shifted slightly, folding my arms across my chest, doing everything I could not to look sideways even as I felt his gaze

Chapter: 88. Quite the Asshole“Keep your elbow down.”I lowered my arm.“Not that far.”“Then stop telling me to lower it.”Cassian laughed behind me. “You’re remarkably argumentative for someone holding a loaded weapon.”We were at the shooting range. Of course a place this huge had one. Cassian had shown me the polo lounge, the equestrian center, and then we ended up here. Somehow, I was now awkwardly holding a loaded pistol while he’d been expecting me to take a shot for the past ten minutes.The thing was, I wasn’t cut out for this. But Cassian wouldn’t give up on me, which was quite touching and funny at the same time.PAWW!Shots echoed through the room as the other shooters fired at their targets.I flinched at the sound and immediately lost my stance again. I sighed, dropping my hands, and turned to look at Cassian, who kept a straight face.“Earmuffs. Shouldn’t I have those?”He snapped his fingers like I’d just given him the brightest idea. “Ah, yes. You know, I was wondering what was missing.”I chuckle

Chapter: 87. Old Flame-Lucien thought the best way to make those twenty minutes interesting was to spend them teasing and edging me until I was begging him to take me.I think I may have cried at some point. It had been unbearable how aroused I was.But on the bright side, I did not blow him in the car. Though, considering how quickly I’d drop to my knees if he asked me to now, there was nothing bright about that.“Sweetheart. Still with me?”Lucien stood by the window, leaning forward on his elbows against the glass as he stared at me with a knowing look.I blinked, trying to shake off the fog of desire. When did he get out of the car? No, when did he even stop the car?My eyes darted through the windshield, taking in my surroundings. Ahead of us was a huge building complex, with an open field beside it. A few people were riding horses across it. Other than my brief confusion about where we were, the place looked like some sort of recreational center.Drawing in a deep breath, I shot Lucien a glare. “I h

Chapter: 86. A bore.~Scarlett:-“Where did you say we were going again?”I asked once the tension in the car had finally settled. We’d left the restaurant about twenty minutes ago, and Lucien had been driving south ever since.Initially, the drive had been great. The playlist was mine, so we spent most of it discussing my immaculate taste in music until we got caught between two truck drivers engaged in what could only be described as vehicular warfare. And all Lucien had done since we got trapped was tighten his jaw and sigh like the city had personally offended him.The situation had been bad, but that didn’t mean it wasn’t funny. I’d laughed at his expense so much, I think he might be mad at me.Lucien glanced at me, a crease forming between his brows. “Are you tired of laughing?”Another fit of giggles burst out. “You looked so done, it was entertaining,” I said, trying to muffle the sound.He scoffed. “Is that something you should say to your boss, Ms. Bennett?”“My boss is a kind and perceptive ma

Chapter: 85. I don’t offer commitment~ Lucien:Scarlett’s expression shifted almost instantly after I said the word marriage. It wasn't dramatic. She was too composed for that.But something in her eyes cooled.The waiter returned with our coffees on a tray and said something about our breakfast coming in ten and then went off to the back.Scarlett reached for her cup like she wanted something to ground her. She then cleared her throat, her gaze darting away for a split second before returning to mine.“What exactly do you want to know about it?”Yeah, what exactly. “You can start wherever you want.”“Why are you even asking me this now?”“Curiosity.” I shrugged one shoulder.Her lips pursed as her eyes flicked toward the anniversary couple beside us.Right.Not exactly subtle.The truth was, outside of knowing Stephen Kane was an asshole and that the marriage had ended badly, I knew almost nothing about that part of her life.Which shouldn't have bothered me.Scarlett was my employee. The rest of whatever existed betwee

Chapter: 27. Thirty-six Hours- Calvin -I’ve never made it onto Ariana’s list of favorite people, and this moment probably seals it. Not that it matters. I don’t care about that. What does matter is the absolute horror that has taken over her face as she stares wide-eyed at the tablet.She’s gripping the device so tightly her knuckles have turned white, her breathing growing heavier by the second. She is mortified.I bite back a smile.Ariana has been avoiding me since this morning, diligently completing her work through Jo instead. I know it’s because of what happened at the club, and I’m quite unapologetic about that. Watching her move so carelessly across that dance floor for half the night had been tempting enough. I still can’t decide whether it was the way she moved or the dress that undid me.Then she dropped into my lap.My dick had already been half-hard through the night. Feeling her perfect ass settle against it took care of the rest.She felt it. For a while, in fact. It’d taken her longer than necess

Chapter: 26. Did you come?-The next day, I spend most of my time behind my desk, going through emails and paperwork and having Jo deliver them to Calvin in my stead.I’m doing everything I can not to think about last night at all. Which hasn’t been a hundred percent successful, because every so often, my thoughts wander, and I drift right back to that moment in the club.The moment I fell into Calvin’s lap.It’s been thirteen hours since then. Thirteen hours since I discovered how blessed he is. All that money and power on top of being sinfully attractive, God thought the cherry on top would be to endow Calvin Grey with a big dick.Heat rushes into my face any time the thought crosses my mind. Which is every time I send Jo to him. And that’s a lot of times.Then my thoughts drift to Roger, and I feel frustrated.“Ms. Halberg.”Jo’s voice pulls me out of my thoughts as she walks up to my desk with her usual bright smile and a file in hand.I blink and focus on her.“This is the S&S file you wanted to review wi

Chapter: 25. Still working on it.-“Do you know Oliver?” Ivy asks, her face flushed from blushing.“Yeah. But I’ve never met him.”Thank God.Ivy has been looking for ways to get us onto the mezzanine ever since she found out her “blond majesty” is Ambrose Clemons, who might be just as interested in her. The last ten minutes have been spent with them flirting from across the room, with Ivy giving him a show as she sways seductively to the music.I’ve stayed exactly where I am because she’s using me as a prop, her hands wrapped around my neck while she dances. In the process, I’ve caught Calvin staring at me, every so often when I look up.And every time, my insides flutter with that familiar prickling beneath my skin. I hate that he makes me feel something my body recognizes before I do.“I could’ve sworn you knew a Rothwell.” Ivy purses her lips, narrowing her eyes at me.I do know the Rothwells but not Oliver. That aside, she is being annoying.I give her a look. “Seriously?”“Sorry.” She flashes me a cheeky smile.

Chapter: 24. A Bartender, a Priest, and a Madman?-I sigh and collapse back against my chair, watching as my system completely shuts down. I just finished filing the last report, and I wish I could float out of here and all the way to my apartment.My limbs are sore from moving around like I’ve been chasing a toddler, which would be technically correct considering how much I followed Calvin around today.Meetings. Paperwork. Emails. Meetings. More meetings.The funny part is, Jo did a lot more than I did, yet she looked forward to tomorrow as she clocked out.In my defense, I don’t remember the last time I was a subordinate, and neither does my nervous system.I force myself to sit up. Calvin left about an hour ago, and Jo, a few minutes so I’m the last to clock out. My phone starts to ring as I pack my things into my bag.Ivy.“Hey,” I place the phone against my ear as I stand and stretch. “What’s up?”“You sound wrung out.” she says.I round my desk, grabbing my bag as I do and head towards the elevators. “I am. This is my first d

Chapter: 23. One Step at a Time-_________________Re: Margaret Should Not Be a Stand-Up Woman.I considered this, and you’re right. I’ll work on her again.All the revisions will be in your inbox Friday.–SUSAN_________________I’ll look forward to it.–ARIANA_________________I slide my phone into my pocket and start the espresso machine.Susan and I have spent the last forty-eight hours discussing her manuscript. I went through the revised draft over Saturday and Sunday, and I had very little to complain about.Susan is a good writer. She’d published one fairly successful book eight years ago before disappearing from the literary world altogether. So when I found her new manuscript in Blackwood’s submissions a few months ago, I reached out myself.We didn’t exactly hit it off.But the past two days have been different. We’re finally talking like two people who understand what the other wants.Which is a relief. A blessing, even.Maybe this will actually be a smooth journey from here.What worries me the most n

Chapter: 22. First Date 2- What does one feel when they see their fiancé out on a date with the woman they cheated with? The same woman they swore meant nothing? I usually know how to handle my emotions under pressure. Even when they start slipping beyond my control, I can somehow find a way to pull them back. But now... I don’t know what to feel. Or maybe I know exactly what I’m feeling and simply don’t want to admit it. Nathan slows but his eyes stay on me, and I hate that I still know what that look means. Surprise. Regret. Guilt perhaps. Maybe I’m just seeing what I want to see. My fingers tighten around the stem of my wineglass before I look away and bring it to my lips. “Ariana...” Nathan says and pauses when he finally notices Calvin across from me. “Oh.” The annoyance packed into that single syllable makes me look back at him. How dare he act annoyed when he’s out here with her? The irony isn’t lost on me, I shouldn’t be feeling this way when I’m also here with someone else.
