Chapter Forty-five: Bad News.
DAWN.
My heart won't stop beating fast against my chest as I stare down at my phone before raising my gaze back to Ryder who now has his hands buried in his hair.
"Ryder. "
I hum, afraid of what he will do if I push too hard and at the same time, trying to find out what's happening.
One moment, everything was fine to expect from the time his mood changed and now, I just don't know what's wrong.
"Ryder."
I call again, this time moving a little closer to him and ignoring the fact that I almost had a heart attack in less than a minute ago.
"He's... He's..."
Soft sobs falls from his lips, and I'm enmeshed where I am, my eyes wide and my hand hanging in the air as I watch him breakdown. It's the first time that I will ever see him cry, and it's such a surprise to me as I ponder about what can be the reason for Ryder

DAWN.I rent a sigh of what I will probably call defeat as I drop on the bed, staring at the blank ceiling like it's the most interesting thing to do and seriously, at this moment of my life, it is the most interesting thing to do.Minerva has finally gone to sleep after a lot of persuading from me and Ryder and her, crying her heart out of course. It shows just how much she really loves her father and seeing her cry took me back to when I lost my parents.I shake my mind to get my mind off the thought, this isn't the time for me to break down as well.Ever since he told me I should probably leave, and we convinced Minerva to bed, I haven't seen Ryder around since. I should probably stay away from him and keep my distance to secure my own heart, but I just want to make sure he's fine. I know he isn't, but I just want to see him.Hearing him say those words to me hurts. A lo
A Night With The Billionaire Chapter Forty-seven: Worries In His Embrace.
RYDER.She knows how to fuck with my emotions. She calms me without even knowing herself.My father's death is something that weighs heavily on me, I knew he was going to be gone soon but still... I didn't know how I will feel about it until now. Knowing that I have no other family any more apart from Minerva tears me up and knowing that I'm the cause of it breaks me even further.I wasn't thinking. I couldn't. I needed to get out of here. Need to fight. Have to fight. The feeling of blood dripping down the knuckles, the metallic scent that hits me always has a way of calming me down. It always does, until now it's been the only thing I rely on whenever I need help. Until now, it's the only way I know how to keep my senses sane and now somehow, in a way that makes absolutely no fucking sense to me, this girl in my arms seems to be able to calm me down with only a few words from her. Oh, Dawn, what have you done to
A Night With The Billionaire Chapter Forty-eight: The Funeral.
DAWN."Are you sure you want to do this?"I ask Ryder once again as he stands before the mirror, his fists clenched at his sides tightly, it makes me really scared. I don't think he will be able to handle this.He laughs before turning back to me. "I'm fine. I have to do this, it's my father's funeral, it will be stupid if I'm not there and everyone else is. "I sigh before nodding my head and closing the distance between us, my hands smooths across his chest and his arms goes around my waist, pulling me closer than I can go.I laugh, shaking my head as he continues to pull me close, almost as if he wants to merge our bodies together as one."Stop. "I laugh, pulling away from him when he won't stop doing it."Oh come on cupcake. I'm trying to make us one. "Even though I know he's only joki
A Night With The Billionaire Chapter Forty-nine: When Hell Breaks Loose.
RYDER.I'm fucking going insane. I can mentally see the bolts that hold my self-control together going fucking loose, and I know I won't be able to hold it any longer if he doesn't keep his damn mouth shut and get the fuck out of here."Get out of here, Oliver. "This is my father's funeral and I will not allow him to ruin it for me but if he pushes me too hard which I know is what he plans on doing then I won't give a damn about this enemy. I don't care about the hundreds of eyes that will be watching me, but he's going to get it from me."As I said, Ryder. I'm here to offer my sincere condolences. Now, if you will excuse me, I'll love to say a few words of peace to your father. "The smirk across his face is getting me fucking angry, and I'm breathing through my nose as I step closer to him, stopping him from moving any further."I will give you my last warning, Oliver. Get
A Night With The Billionaire Chapter Fifty: I Care About You.
DAWN."Thank you all for coming. We appreciate the support that you've given us, I'm sure father will be glad for this too. Thank you. "Minerva says to the guests as they leave while I stand at the corner, Emily bouncing in my arms as my eyes trail over to him. He hasn't said a word ever since then, and I'm starting to feel guilty. Maybe I shouldn't have acted that cold to him but what he did was wrong. It was so wrong, I told him not to, but he didn't listen. Walking away from him was the right thing to do."Come on. "Minerva says as we all walk towards where the car is packed, the guards behind us and immediately we step out to the world once again, the reporters surrounds us immediately. Like the fuck is their problem? Don't they have a life to live or something?The guards block them away from us as they start with their load of annoying stupid questions."I have to spea
A Night With The Billionaire Chapter Fifty-one: A Little Moment.
DAWN.His hand goes to the back of my head, and he pulls me close before his lips claim mine just like he always does, his tongue swipes across my lower lip as he pushes it in, almost as if he's claiming his territory and the familiar heat that shoots through my body from his touch comes quickly, making me pool between my legs. Fuck, I can't imagine how wet I will be, but I know I'm soaking.I let out a low groan as my legs wrap around his waist to pull him closer to me and my hands flatten on his chest, trailing across, and it feels so fucking good to feel his muscles under my touch.I almost whine when he pulls back, shaking his head. "We can't. Minerva will be here any minute from now. "I ignore the ache that tugs at my heart before nodding my head, giving him a small smile. "Yes, you're right. "I tell him, and he says nothing but just stand there, watching me, his hands now back on
A Night With The Billionaire Chapter Fifty-two: The Mystery Behind Sarah Smith.
DAWN.I stand awkwardly behind Ryder as Minerva walks in with Emily in her arms, I'm sure the little girl will be asleep by now."I thought you guys would have retired to bed already. "She says, closing the door behind her and Ryder turns to me, giving me one dirty look which makes my cheek heat, and I move my gaze away from him."We were a little... Busy. "Of course, he will be an asshole about what happened earlier. My insides quiver at the thought that he might have just given Minerva a hint about what we were doing."About what you did earlier, Ryder..."Minerva starts, a hard look across her face and I cross between the two siblings, grabbing Emily from Minerva and turning back to walk up the stairs."Thank you. "She says behind me as I leave them to their conservation. RYDER.

DAWN.He peers at me as I look at him with my eyes large. I don't know why the hell they are, but you can state I'm stunned by what I had just learned. Minerva had stated she recognizes him as her brother. Now that can only mean one thing. Ryder isn't her biological brother and that surprise the shit out of me.He raises, taking long strides to close the distance between us before he's in my face."What the fuck are you doing here?"His tone is sharp, and it shows that he's annoyed. I hint at him not wanting me to hear that, but he never asked me to stay put in the room either, so how the fuck am I supposed to know?"I was coming down to..."I start, but he shakes his head, cutting me off."How much of that did you hear?"His eyes dim. And I do not mean in a pleasant state, I mean dreadfully. There's no longer the playful Ryder that I was with
