~XANDER~

The steering wheel bore the brunt of the anger and frustration swirling a graceful circle inside of me. I had decided to take the wheel so I would distract myself from the sexual heat that surged through my system as a result of my proximity to her earlier.

But I didn't know that I was signing up for her and Ace to be hurdled up in a corner in the backseat, him whispering what I couldn't make out to her.

My knuckles were turning white but I cared less. I had to alternate my gaze between the road and the rearview mirror. God! Xander. This couldn't possibly be jealousy, was it?

Ever since I broke the news about that bastard almost raping her, Ace had gone all overprotective, even insisting that we leave early. I should have known that he wouldn't join me in the front seat, but instead perched beside Luna back there.

When I averted my gaze from the road, fixing it back on the rearview, I almost pumped my fist against the steering. He wrapped his hand around her, leaning down as

  • 30 Days With My Dashing One-Night Stand Billionaire   Chapter 14 One Good Turn.

    ~LUNA~He called me dewdrop again. I couldn't stop smiling as I stared at his retreating figure before he finally disappeared into his room at the end of the hallway. Not just because he remembered the pet name, but because he suggested dropping me off at school tomorrow. That alone wiped off the traces of anger in my heart at his rejection last night.Even though I wasn't sure where we stood. Or whether there were any traces of likeness he had for me. Or whether that night really meant something to him. I wanted to hold on to the fact that I hadn't totally lost. There was still hope that he might see me as more than a one-night stand. It was a glimmer of hope, but I was willing to hold on to it. See where it would lead me. The one-night stand was just to prove Eric wrong, but right now, it was becoming more. I didn't know how and when it happened. Was it during our throes of passion or afterwards? I couldn't say, but one thing was certain: he had arrested my interest and heart. It

  • 30 Days With My Dashing One-Night Stand Billionaire   Chapter 13 Making Amends.

    ~XANDER~I didn't get much sleep last night. Not because I was up working my ass off, or had a business call that needed to be attended to. But because my mind couldn't rest. It kept taking me back to that scene outside the country club where she held me tightly as though I were her lifeline.For the first time in my life, I jerked off on my own and with the thought of her leading me through."Dammit! Alex!" I cursed under the cascading water emitting from the shower spray.I didn't know how she had become so engraved in my thoughts like that. But whatever the case, it would surely be hard for me to get her off my mind. My mind was restless even in the shower after jerking off the second time that morning, with a frustrated groan that accompanied it. I figured if I wanted to get over her, I needed her to get over me first. But how would I do so without hurting her?The hurtful look I beheld on her face last night was still haunting me. I didn't even bother to check if she had taken t

  • 30 Days With My Dashing One-Night Stand Billionaire   Chapter 12 Apologies...

    ~XANDER~With my gaze fixed on her receding figure, I gritted my teeth to the point I was sure it would crack, but it didn't. I wish it did, so I would have another pain that would distract me from the one that was gnawing at the pit of my stomach.I shouldn't have replied to her like that. But would you blame me? I was trying to cut off the connection that hitherto existed between us. I figured that if I could, it would be easier to quench this fiery feeling that was rearing its head inside of me.But instead of doing so, it drove an imaginary spear through my heart. It was an imaginary spear, but the pain was lethal; I could feel it deep into my soul.Still gritting my teeth, I removed the already toasted bread from the machine and proceeded to dish out the fried eggs. She might say she had lost her appetite, but I couldn't care less."Hell, I am not buying that." I brought out her plate as well and began dishing. Despite the determination to discontinue whatever it was that was goi

  • 30 Days With My Dashing One-Night Stand Billionaire   Chapter 11 "I've Lost My Appetite..."

    ~LUNA~ I delayed downstairs, pretending to be invested in the channel playing on the television while in reality, I was waiting for Xander to be done with his brother so we could talk. He didn't mention the exact time frame for the talk we were supposed to have, but I wanted to know what was wrong with him. Why did he seem so closed off and angry, his eyes losing their earlier sparks? The curiosity was so deep-rooted that I didn't consider the option of going upstairs to freshen up— at least to wash off the touch of that human stain off my body. But when minutes morphed into an hour, and an hour flew into hours, I knew I needed to go freshen up. Plus, I didn't want Ace asking me why I hadn't gone up because I had no excuse to give. As I ascended the stairs, half of my mind listened to any sign of a door opening downstairs and the other was on the banter or should I say the squabble between Xander and Ace. Backtrack from the time when Andy asked if we were a thing and I was the

  • 30 Days With My Dashing One-Night Stand Billionaire   10. No Distractions...

    ~XANDER~With Andy taking me towards the direction of the study, I knew what he wanted to talk about was serious. And it was something he didn't want any ear to hear. The door of my study was soundproof, so anything done or said there never got out.We entered, with me trailing behind him. I shut the door immediately I got in and made straight for my mini-bar. I had a mini-bar both in my room and in my study. There were times I would be neck deep with work that I wouldn't want to step outside. So, if I needed liquid courage I didn't need to go far to get it.Well, that was a few months back when I still spent time here, and not in my private condominium. But I figured things would change from now on. Speaking of change, Ace had never openly argued with me, playfully or not. But what he did back there... Being so defensive and overprotective... Coupled with his comment at the office earlier today about his guest being special. It was all starting to make sense.Still mulling over that

  • 30 Days With My Dashing One-Night Stand Billionaire   9. The Squabble.

    ~LUNA~I could tell he was angry. It was obvious from the way he abandoned us at the parking lot and stalked off. He didn't need to talk much, I could see it in the widening of his broad shoulders and the rigidity of his gait. But what I couldn't fathom was why.Still trying to wrap my head around what could possibly be wrong, I stepped out of the car, standing by the side as Ace proceeded to get the key from the keyhole. He was fine before we left the country club, but something shifted during our ride home. I wasn't sure then, because the only outstanding event was him almost getting us killed by slamming on the brakes all of a sudden. My brows furrowed in thought. Now that I thought about it, that action of his depicted anger. But there was still no hint of why he would be angry. I remembered his stare through the rearview mirror when he apologized about it. Nothing in his gaze screamed anger. But his blue eyes had lost their sparks— or was it because I wasn't staring at him dir
