Christmas Eve
"You disgusting little horror, I've never known anyone smell like you, Not even your handsome big brother." Nick held Aria Henderson-Swan at arm's length and took the stairs two at a time. "You gorgeous beautiful stinkpot, what are we going to do with you?"
"Shh, I've just got Arlo to sleep," Gabriel whispered, he sat in one of the two rocking chairs with his tiny son over his shoulder gently patting his back. "You'd better be quick, one of her legs has turned a strange mustard colour.
"Bloody hell what has your mother been feeding you?
"Same as she has been feeding this one, Google says breastfed babies have mustard pooh."
"Great." Nick sighed, "Oh my

HEAVEN & HELL Liar!
"Liar!"The force of Ruby Ashton’s anger droveMillie back against the sitting room wall. The only protection it would offer was if it absorbed herand she wished that it would.Or better still, she wished for the floor to open up and swallow her miserable sister. Maybe if Ruby stamped her Louboutin clad foot even harder she would get her wish.“It wasn’t me,” she protested. “I wouldn’t iron that kind of material.”Millie ducked as the beaded silk-chiffon top flew like a wounded bird-of-paradise through the air towards her, and her elder sister stormed across the room after it.Millie moved fast. Savage should have been Ruby’s middle name and she didn’t trust her not to lash out at her and with those nails, it could damage her; it would be like trying to fight a rabid she-Ruby snatched the top up, only just missing Millie’s chee
HEAVEN & HELL The Tiger's Den
Amelia Ashton was havingone of those days.She was dragging her wheeled suitcase up the pea gravelled drive of her new employer, which was rather more difficult than she ever imagined.Then she had to fight with her umbrella in the gale force wind and then the teeming rain, which had poureddown as if God was pouring a bucket of water directly over her which had ruined her long glossy hairfrizzing it up and turning it into a rats nest within five seconds of getting out of the cab.The last straw had been the stupid pea gravel that got stuck in the wheels of her case and stopped dead almost dragging her arm out of the socket. Her hand slipped off the handle and she only just saved herself from face planting on the drive. That was all she needed, to be picking gravel from her chin in front of her new employer.Taking a deep calming breath, “Keep calm, you can do this,” she muttered under her breath. She ha
HEAVEN & HELL The Forfeit Jar
She had spent an interesting evening - although nerve-wracking in some places - with two of the most handsome and eligible men in the entire world. She sighed with happiness as she thought of Gabriel who, when he had sobered up, was the most delightful man she had ever met.“So Amelia, what do you like to do in your spare time?” Gabriel asked as he poured the rich deep red wine into her glass.“I like to cook, I love trying out new recipes, and please call me Millie, Amelia is just a Sunday name.”“Oh, we will definitely be your guinea pigs for that, Millie,” he said.He teased her gently, making her blush and giggle, and being around him did something to her insides low down and deep. Making her very warm and her tummy felt almost liquid as he had made her laugh with his silly jokes. He didn’t treat her like staff, he’d made sure she had everything she needed, and she felt
HEAVEN & HELL L'Amore
Waving her hands in front of her face, and blowing her breath upwards to dispel the burning heat, Millie went back to the kitchen, feeling relieved that she was alone in the house. She definitely needed time to recover from her late start and the news of that wretched forfeit jar.She blushed scarlet again as she remembered what Nick had said'specifically interact with others.'Bloody hell

He - Hello.""Amelia," Nick's voice was as smooth as melted chocolate, "we were wondering if you were alright? You didn't answer our texts," Nick said.Oh shit, they weren't from Pearl.She thought.
HEAVEN & HELL Eavesdropping
Nick unlocked the front door they had enjoyed lunch and spent the rest of the afternoon at the Groucho club where they knew that they wouldn't be disturbed. They had decided to give Millie a week to see how they got on with each other, though judging from the conversation yesterday evening they both knew in their hearts that it would take something drastic to let her go. They walked towards the kitchen stairs and then stopped."Listen," Gabriel whispered."We can't listen to her conversation." Nick tried to pull Gabriel away from the top of the stairs. Gabriel stayed put. "Shh, something's wrong."Nick stopped and listened."Pearl, please don't do this, I like this job, I won't stop you from getting photo shoots and catwalk jobs. Just leave me alone!" Millie's voice was getting louder."No I can't invite you, how can I just invite you here on my first day? No, I'm not keeping them all to myself, I'm not so deranged that I think they might actually
HEAVEN & HELL You're So Vain...?
A minute later Millie heard the front door bang shut, oh my God they were home! She ran to her apartment to recheck her face and taking slow and deep breaths she tried to calm down."Hello!" Gabriel called as he came down the stairs. "Hey, how're things?"Millie came out from her apartment, "Hello, can I make you some tea?" She said, forcing a smile onto her face."Thanks that would be great, how has your day been, did you find everything?" He sat in his usual place at the breakfast table."Yes thanks, I've made a list out of the things that I will need." She said, filling the kettle."Okay you'd better have this, it's the credit card for the house." He took his wallet out and flipped through the cards, I'll only forget to give it to you if I don't do it now."Millie took the card and put it in her skirt pocket, she memorised the pin number Gabriel gave her.
