Alexander

I arrived ten minutes early. The bistro was charming in that understated way that meant expensive without being flashy. White tablecloths, fresh flowers, and large windows letting in natural light.

The hostess greeted me with a professional smile. "Good afternoon. Do you have a reservation?"

"Alexander Knight. Table for two at noon."

"Right this way."

She led me to a corner table with a view of the street. I settled into my chair, declining the wine list but accepting water.

    AlexanderWe grabbed our things, Ethan bouncing the entire way to the elevator. The ride down felt quick, his excitement filling every available space. The Bentley purred to life. Ethan claimed the backseat again, kicking his feet and humming some tune I didn't recognize. "There's a theater near Union Square," Madison said, pulling out her phone. "Showtime in forty minutes." "Perfect." Traffic cooperated for once. We made it with time to spare, finding parking without the usual Manhattan nightmare. The theater lobby buzzed with families, couples, and groups of teenagers. Ethan's hand found mine automatically as we navigated the crowd toward the ticket counter. "Three for the penguin movie," I told the bored teenager behind the glass. "Two o'clock showing?" "Yes." I handed over my card without looking at the total. Madison started to protest. "Alexander, I can pay—" "Already done." I collected the tickets and passed them to Ethan. "You're in charge of these, prince." "I won

    Alexander"Ethan's been exploring for a while," she observed. "Should we check on him?" "He's fine. The penthouse is childproofed. Mostly." "Mostly?" "There aren't any sharp edges or exposed outlets." I dried my hands on a towel. "And the balcony doors lock automatically." "Reassuring." I caught the edge in her voice. Not quite sarcasm, but close. "You don't trust me to keep him safe." "I didn't say that." "You didn't have to." Madison's jaw tightened. "I just met you a few days ago as his father, Alexander. Forgive me for being cautious." Fair point. I'd walked back into her life after five years' absence and expected instant trust. That wasn't reasonable. "You're right," I said quietly. "I'm sorry." Her eyebrows rose. "Did Alexander Knight just apologize?" "It happens occasionally. When I'm wrong." "How often is that?" "Not often enough, apparently." Her lips twitched. Almost a smile. Ethan's voice carried down the hallway, singing something with no rhythm whatsoever

    AlexanderThe elevator opened directly into my penthouse. Ethan rushed past Madison and me, his sneakers squeaking against the polished floors. He made a beeline for the floor-to-ceiling windows, pressing both hands and his nose against the glass. "Whoa! I can see EVERYTHING from here!" His breath fogged the glass. "There's Central Park! And all the tiny cars! They look like toys!" Madison followed more slowly, her eyes scanning the space like she was cataloging every detail. Looking for what, I wasn't sure. I watched her take in the sparse furniture, the empty walls where photos should hang. Nothing personal. Nothing that screamed home instead of expensive real estate investment. "Can I come here whenever I want?" Ethan spun around, his face bright with excitement. "Like, anytime at all?" I glanced at Madison. She was watching me carefully, waiting to see how I'd answer. "Yes," I said, meeting Ethan's eyes. "Anytime you want. This is your second home now." "Really?" His whole

    AlexanderThe elevator doors opened onto Hazel's floor, and I stepped out, the weight that had been pressing on my chest for months finally lifting. I knocked on the door, hearing the muffled sounds of cartoons playing inside. Hazel answered, her expression curious. "That was fast." "I don't waste time." "Clearly." She stepped aside, letting me in. "They're in the living room. Well, Ethan's in the living room. Madison's been stress-cooking in the kitchen for the past hour. I think she's made enough food to feed a small army." I walked down the hallway, following the sound of animated characters and the smell of something savory. Ethan sat cross-legged on the floor, his eyes glued to the television, surrounded by his new dinosaur collection. The T-Rex stood guard over the smaller dinosaurs like a prehistoric sentinel. "Hey, buddy." His head whipped around, and his face lit up. "Dad! You came back!" "Told you I would." He scrambled to his feet, running over to grab my hand. "Com

    AlexanderShe laughed, the sound hollow and sharp. "Don't be ridiculous. You can't just end it." "Watch me." "Alexander." She moved toward me again, her hands outstretched. "Whatever this is about, we can work through it. We always do. Remember when we fought about the venue? Or the guest list? We figured it out." "This isn't about venues or guest lists." "Then what is it about?" Her voice rose slightly. "Another woman? Is that what this is? Some little distraction caught your eye?" Madison's face flashed through my mind. Not a distraction. Never that. "It's about me not wanting to marry you." Katherine's jaw tightened. "You put this ring on my finger." She held up her hand, the massive diamond catching the light. "You made a commitment." "A mistake." "A mistake?" Her voice went cold, all warmth draining away. "Do you have any idea what my family has already invested in this wedding? The deposits, the arrangements, the announcements? My mother has been planning this for month

    Alexander"Why don't we table this discussion for when you're older?" Madison suggested. "Like thirty." "Thirty?" Ethan's eyes went wide. "That's forever away!" "Exactly." She held out her hand. "Come on. We should probably start thinking about heading back to Connecticut soon." "Already?" Ethan's face fell, his excitement deflating like a popped balloon. "But I just got the dinosaurs! And we didn't even finish setting up the habitat yet!" "I know, baby. But we need to get back." "Can't we stay one more day? Please? Just one more day?" "Ethan." "Pleeeease?" I opened my mouth to tell them they should stay. That I'd book them rooms at The Plaza, or they could stay at my penthouse. That Connecticut could wait another day or two. That Ethan needed more time with his dinosaurs, and I needed more time with both of them. My phone buzzed in my pocket. The words died on my tongue as I pulled it out, glancing at the screen. Josephine Miller. My PA. I swiped to answer. "Yes?" "Mr. Kn

    Madison"Jesus fucking Christ," Alexander hissed, his fingers pinching my nipples. "Your pussy feels amazing." I rolled my hips experimentally, adjusting to the feel of him inside me. His hands moved to my waist, guiding my movements. "That's it," he encouraged, his eyes fixed on where our bodies

I turned around to see Hazel standing there, looking polished in her work outfit—a gray pencil skirt with a burgundy blouse. Her hair was pulled b

    MadisonI took a deep breath and pulled up the meeting agenda, determined to be over-prepared. If they were going to judge me, I'd at least give them something substantial to judge. The distinctive ding of the elevator caught my attention, and I glanced up to see Alexander stepping out. He walked

    Madison"Fuck!" I gasped when he finally let me breathe, my lips tingling from the assault. "You're not going anywhere," he growled against my mouth. "Not until I'm done with you." My heart hammered against my ribs as his hands roamed over my body, no longer teasing but possessive. He cupped my b
