Butterfly and the CeoChapter 16Ellies’s point of view.I wake up in the morning wrapped in Zac’s arms. He stayed with me after the nightmare and held me in his arms all night, safe to say I never had another nightmare after that. I look at him as he sleeps. My god, this man is handsome. I smile as much more than him being insanely attractive with the looks and body of a Greek god. He makes me feel safe, and that's something I haven't felt in a long time.I drift off back to sleep with a smile on my face. I open my eyes again as I hear him gently calling my name.“Ellie?

Butterfly and the CEOChapter 20Ellie’s point of view.Zac stayed by my side right through the statement; although I could feel his anger, he never said a word as I relived my nightmare. He gives me the strength to go through with this, and when I’m finished, he wipes away my tears, and when we're finally alone, he says,“I’m so fucking proud of you, Ellie; you are the bravest person I’ve ever known.”There's a knock on the office door, and Zac calls out.
