Anacá

I walked into the bedroom while Lucy preferred following Eros to the kitchen. It seemed more than me; his charm had bowled over my pet dog. I entered the enormous walk-in closet that was almost empty. With only one side occupied, I had the rest of the space to myself for my new and old belongings.

This was a work I hated, but what choice did I have? I couldn’t call Jess here to help me. In fact, Jess had completely disappeared from my life. Even my calls to her went unanswered. I wondered what she was up to.

“Woof!” Lucy trotted inside to rub her body against my legs. I stroked her head and smiled.

“Where’s your new buddy? Did you ditch him downstairs?” I chuckled at my joke.

“Why? Are you missing me? I’m all yours.” His voice echoed from behind, and I jumped out of my skin. Wasn’t he downstairs making dinner for us?

I whirled around to find him leaning against the doorframe of the closet. His words echoed in my head.

I’m all yours.

He was mine. A warm flush crept up my c

    Anacá “Uh.” My eyes widened as he leaned closer. The world ceased to revolve around me, and it seemed that there were only the two of us in the room. How he looked at me set a flutter in my stomach. I stood transfixed to the spot, watching him with delirious eyes. He pulled my face toward him and brushed my lips lightly with his. The soft touch was enough to send my senses into overdrive. A throbbing started deep down, and I needed the kiss to quell the desire I felt. “F*ck!” He raised his head to look into my eyes, and I gasped at the burning desire I saw in them. His fingers tangled into my hair as he crashed his lips to mine, this time yanking my head back to gain better access. His tongue probed into my mouth, colliding with my tongue, and all my inhibitions flew out of the windows. I needed him as much as he needed me. At that moment, I forgot we had an audience. A moan echoed around us, and surprisingly, it was from him. The kiss grew desperate, and I wrapped my arms around

  • A Reckless Alliance - Falling For My Billionaire Boss   Chapter Thirty - His Father’s Offer

    Anacá Dinner was bearable after his dad’s little reminder. I could feel the power he wielded over everyone present here, including Eros. After dinner, he declined the dessert I offered him. It hurt me, but I preferred hiding my feelings. “Dad has diabetes. He stays away from sugary treats.” Eros leaned in to whisper. It cheered me up again. I was glad Eros cleared the misunderstanding on my part. “We’ll leave, bro. Are you staying?” asked Uncle Enriquez. “Yes. I want to talk to Eros. You can go ahead. Eros will see you off.” They left, and Eros went downstairs to see them off. I felt acutely aware of his dad’s shrewd eyes watching me intently. “Come here, Anacá. I wanted to talk to you.” He gestured towards the opposite couch, and I complied. I wondered what he wanted to discuss with me. We just met, and he didn’t like me.” “Yes, Mr. Nikolaou.” My heart pounded in apprehension as I waited for him to start. Somehow, I had the feeling this wouldn’t be pleasant. “Look, I know yo

    AnacáThe moment the door closed, Eros smiled at me, waving the document in the air. “I’m the happiest man alive tonight. Can you believe it? Dad has finally signed his business over to me. I never expected this day to happen so soon. And it’s only because of you, Anacá.” My jaw dropped to the floor. What? Didn’t his dad threaten to disown him if I didn’t leave him? Then how did this miracle happen? “I’m sure this has nothing to do with me, Eros. It’s your hard work that has paid off.” Maybe his dad didn’t have the heart to disown him. I was sure it had nothing to do with me. “I disagree. Dad had come prepared. If he disliked you, he would have shown his disapproval. He wouldn’t have transferred the business to my name. Instead, he would have asked me to get rid of you. He’s quite stubborn and difficult to please when you try. Surprisingly, he liked you at first sight.” He looked so excited, I couldn’t burst his happy bubble and tell him about my interaction with his dad. It was an

    Eros I gazed at her beautiful face, so close to mine. If I dipped my head a few more inches, I could get a taste of heaven. Her lips were beckoning me to continue where we had left off. And then she licked her lips, her nervous gaze dropping to mine. I lost control. “Anacá,” I whispered her name almost like a prayer. “Yeah?” There was a shyness in her eyes that made my stomach tighten with arousal. I knew she wanted the kiss as much as I did. “Let me complete what we started earlier. I can’t sleep.” I could see the hot flush creep up her body, staining her cheeks and neck. It made me warm too, and my co*k responded instantly. “And what do you want to complete?” She tried hard to appear calm, but her hot breath came in gasps while her heart thumped wildly against her chest. I could feel every breath, every beat distinctly.Was she inviting me to do more than just a kiss? I leaned closer, and she gasped with surprise. “We can start with a kiss and see where it goes. Hmm?” “Okay.”

    ErosRelief washed over me at the sight of my wife in my office. She didn’t flee or bear a grudge against me professionally. She left home to shoulder her responsibilities. Despite having judged her wrong, my heart swelled with pride. Anacá had proved me wrong. She had proved herself. I knew I had made no mistake in choosing her as my PA.“Emergency? Why didn’t they inform me?” My eyebrows pinched together at her explanation.“They did. Your phone was muted, I guess.” She roped in the technical team to explain the situation in brief. “It’s taken care of. You can start your meeting anytime.”The door opened, and Maria from the Marketing team peered in. “Mr. Young has arrived, sir. Shall I escort him here?”“Yes, we’re ready to start.” The technical team walked out, leaving me with Anacá.“Umm, I’ll go to my office, then.” She gave me an indecisive look.“No. Stay here with me. I need you.” I watched her cheeks color at my double-edged words. “To record the minutes of the meeting, obvio

    Anacá I watched the jaw-dropped look on his face, and a sense of satisfaction coursed through my body.“Where were you? I looked for you everywhere. I thought you had left.” The fear in his eyes was clearly visible, and it felt good to know he wanted me to stay with him.“I went to grab a bite. After the way she insulted me, I had no wish to tolerate her.” I felt a little foolish for reacting to Acacia.“Oh, the food I ordered was for you. Why didn’t you have it?”“She snatched it from me.”Eros rolled his eyes in exasperation. “Anacá, you had the right to throw her out. You’re not just my PA. You’re the owner of Emerald as well. You should know and understand your rights.”My heart filled with an overwhelming urge to hug him. Did he really consider me the owner of his business? I hadn’t expected him to. “Oh, I am?” I couldn’t stop the urge any longer. Was he for real? We hadn’t been married for even a month, and he had already declared me the owner of his business. I didn’t need a s

    AnacáThe door opened, and a uniformed staff greeted us. “Mr. Nikolaou is waiting for you in the great room.”Eros led me down the grand foyer towards the lavishly decorated great room. Everything about the villa was exotic and over the top. It was quite suffocating, hardly the home I’d like to live in. Thankfully, it wasn’t my home. Eros had built his own private sanctuary for us. He seemed the most sensible of the lot.His grip on my hand was so tight it hurt. Why was he crushing my hand? Maybe he was stressed. It was normal, given the circumstances he was in. Even I was stressed. I couldn’t wait for this ordeal to get over. Would I stay in Eros’s life as his wife by the end of the day?Relax, Anacá.Breathe.I must trust my husband. He promised me that no one could separate us.Voices echoed around us as we entered the lavish great room. I tried hard to remain calm at all costs. The whole family seemed to have gathered here. In fact, even Acacia was present, busy chatting up Lydia,

    Eros“So, that’s my resume. I’m sure you know my qualifications, Eros. I’ll come down to the office tomorrow. With my experience, I can handle any top managerial job.”I gave Vincent a withered look. “Right now, we have no vacancy. Why don’t you apply at other companies?” I had no wish to induct him into my business. I would have avoided it if Dad hadn’t been so adamant. But with dad supporting them, I had no say in the matter. Victor had been trying to convince me for the last forty minutes in my dad’s study. It made me feel suffocated. Why couldn’t he get the idea?He gave me a shocked look. “Do you expect a Nikolaou to go begging others for a job? We are one of the top business families in the country, bro. Wouldn’t it tarnish your reputation?”I shook my head. “Nope. I’m an open-minded guy. Applying for jobs isn’t begging. With your qualifications, you’re serving a company, helping a business in return for money. It’s better than bothering others for money. That’s begging.” I coul

  • A Reckless Alliance - Falling For My Billionaire Boss   Chapter Forty-Six – Where Is Anacá?

    ErosDad closed his eyes and took a deep breath. “Enriquez is mentally unstable. From birth, he has been suffering from several impulse control disorders. When he was young, he resorted to bullying and stealing. Then it was bullying and alcohol. With therapy, we got rid of his illnesses, but he started gambling. No amount of therapy could help him this time. We tried to get him off gambling, and he developed schizophrenia. In the last twenty years, it became worse, more so after he went bankrupt. He stopped his treatment, and now he’s usually lost in a world of hallucinations. Dad and I had taken care of him since the day he was born. I promised dad I would take care of him all my life. I couldn’t break my promise now, Eros.” I sighed, feeling distressed. “Will you take care of him even after knowing he has killed grandpa?” Dad sighed and shook his head. “He hasn’t killed Dad.” I gaped at him for a minute. “What are you saying, Dad? Uncle Enriquez has admitted to his crime. He had

    Eros“This is between me and my brother, Eros. Stay away,” yelled my uncle desperately. “Then why are your sons here? I have the whole footage of the three of you, threatening, abusing, and forcing Dad to sign the property over to you. Do you realize what will happen if we hand the evidence to the cops?” The wish to throttle him was too much, but I calmed myself down. I had to deal with this properly. It was the only way to teach my uncle a lesson. Amadeus rolled his eyes and walked away. “I played no part in this. It was all Dad and Victor’s game. I was a mere spectator, bro.” “Wait, Amadeus. I can acquit you only if you give your statement against them? You have witnessed the entire thing.” He looked torn, yet nodded. “Yes, I will if that stops Dad from terrorizing innocent family members who help him.” “You, basta*d! I’m ashamed to call you my son. Now it will be your turn to die,” yelled my uncle, striding towards his son. “Stop right there, Uncle Enriquez.” I lunged forward

    Eros I gaped at my lawyer for a second. “I don’t have a choice. My uncle threatened my dad, and he handed half the company shares over to him. Now he’s an equal shareholder, and he wants access to the business.” “You shouldn’t concede. You’re the owner, Mr. Nikolaou. I think you should revise your Shareholder/Founder Agreement first. Still, I would advise you not to give them enough power in the company. Treat them as employees and have them sign the Employment Agreement like all the other employees. In case of a breach, you can drag them to court.” “Yes, I was thinking of doing the same. I’ll call a Board Meeting to discuss this with the members before deciding.” “I would still advise you against it. In the meantime, you must check up on your father. Maybe he’s under some sort of pressure. Why else would he sign his dream company, his hard work away to his evil brother?” I nodded. “Yes, I was suspicious, too. Maybe I’ll give him a surprise visit today.”“I can accompany you, Mr.

    ErosThe moment I drove through the gates of my house, I knew something was wrong. The guards stole glances and avoided eye contact with me. I parked my car and walked inside, only to see the guards at the front door busy talking. “What’s going on? Why aren’t you attentive today?” I barked at them, my mood worse now. Startled, they turned to look at me as if they had seen a ghost! Were they so busy with themselves that they hadn’t seen my car enter? “Oh, good afternoon, Mr. Nikolaou!” gasped one. “G-good afternoon, sir. We were attentive all morning,” said the other. “Did anyone visit since I left last night?” I watched them minutely, noticing their hesitation. “No, sir. No one arrived, but Mrs. Nikolaou left with her pet dog and luggage this morning.”My heart sank, although I had expected it. I was an ass for leaving her last night. Maybe I should have broken into her room and patched things up with her. I tried to stop myself from reacting, although the news shattered me tot

    Eros“Why do we have to give up on our dreams and business, Dad? You’ve worked hard to build it from scratch. So what if we’re adopted? Grandpa had signed it to us.” I paced the office in a fit of rage. This was an injustice, and my dad was supporting it wholeheartedly. Dad gave me a pleading look. “You still don’t get it, do you? Enriquez will kill you and Anacá. Do you want to lose your lives for the business? You have Krypton, don’t you? It’s not like you’ll be on the streets without Emerald.” I stopped and sat down beside him, ready for war. “I’ll file an FIR against him. I’ll hire bodyguards, but I refuse to give up on what’s rightfully mine. Why did you bend, Dad? You should have discussed with me before signing off the company shares to them.” He sighed and shook his head, looking at least ten years older, helpless and defeated. I had never seen my dad in this light. He was a born fighter. “I panicked, Eros. I can’t afford to lose you.” I sighed too. I could understand his

    ErosRemorse shunted through me as I stood at her closed door, begging to be let in. What had I done in my jealousy? Why didn’t I believe her? She had saved her virginity for me, and I destroyed everything between us. “Anacá, please, can you open the door once? I’m sorry.” I waited, but there was no response from inside. Did she lose consciousness? Guilt ate me up. How did I let the monster in me take over? All my life, I had lived recklessly with no one to teach me a thing about relationships. I f*cked available who*es who expected nothing but a rough ride. It had become a habit only to fulfill my needs, but tonight was different. Anacá was my wife, my better half. She didn’t deserve this.I had let my jealousy control my mind and body. How did I stoop so low? I had waited for so long to make love to Anacá, to consummate our marriage. Now I had fu*ked it all up with my insensitivity. She would never forgive me for being an as*hole to her, for snatching away what she had treasured

    Anacá We tumbled into the bed together, and I watched him hover over me. His hazel eyes held my gaze, while his arms on either side of my body held me captive.“Are you sure?” He lifted an eyebrow at me, and the look he gave me was so full of heat, I ignored the anger bubbling inside him. I knew he still hadn’t believed or forgiven me. I nodded, and he watched me intently. Yes, I was his. I had already surrendered my body, mind, and soul to him. He was the only one I loved and the only one I would belong to. But now wasn’t the time to confess. He wouldn’t believe me. It was time to show him through my actions. It was time to prove my love for him. His fingers worked on the buttons of my top while his eyes held my gaze. I knew he was giving me ample space to back out. But I didn’t want to. I wanted to please him tonight. He eased the top out of me, still with his eyes on me. A hot flush crept up my body as his eyes drank me in. The way he looked at me made my body flush. I had neve

However, Josh looked quite pleased with himself for causing a rift between my husband and me. I repented, having forgiven him. He didn’t deserve it. With a slight nod towards Josh’s parents, Eros gripped my arm and strode out, pulling me along. Lucy, too, followed meekly, sensing trouble. Once we were outside, he pulled me towards his car in a fit of rage. “Get in. This is unforgivable, Anacá. What the f*ck were you doing here with Josh?” “Please, stop! I can explain.” I tried to get free, but his grip on my arm felt like a steel band, refusing to loosen. “There’s nothing to explain. Why did you lie to me, Anacá? I asked you repeatedly.” He shoved me inside his car and let Lucy in before walking around to the driver’s side. “I went to visit Aunt Dana and Uncle Jeremy, not Josh.

I had agreed to stay back for Aunt Dana and Uncle Jeremy. They had done much for me, and I was indebted to them. But Josh seemed to get other ideas. I didn’t bother talking to him. So, he sat there sulking and glaring at me all the time. “Do you want to learn? You can make them for your husband. Do you know it’s a sure-shot way to win a man’s heart!” chuckled Aunt Dana. I opened my eyes, surprised to hear her joke in front of her crazy son. “Oh!” My cheeks were stained with color. Uncle Jeremy laughed too, while Josh glared daggers at me and his mom. “I’m sure she has touched his heart. Or he wouldn’t have pursued and married her!”“I don’t believe this! Are you supporting the man who has destroyed my career?” Josh rose in a fit of rage. “No, son. We’re just discussing Anacá’s husband. You have no reason to overreact,
