SHANE

I parked in front of Cathy’s townhouse just as the sun was beginning to sink behind the skyline, throwing streaks of orange and pink across the sky. My chest felt heavy as I sat in the driver’s seat, gripping the steering wheel tighter than necessary. I knew this conversation wasn’t going to be easy. But it had to be done.

Carrie was at the hairdresser’s. She knew where I was, I told her when she was leaving that I would come over here. There had been no protest in her voice when I told h

  • Billionaire's Remorse: My CEO Ex-husband Wants Me Back    Chapter 177

    CARRIE Two weeks after Leo’s birthday, life had gradually slipped back into its gentle rhythm; work, home, laughter-filled evenings with my big and little boys, and the quiet comfort of routine. So when Anders called that Saturday afternoon, I didn’t think much of it. His voice was warm, steady, the same familiar tone he always used.“Carrie,” he said, “please be ready by seven. I’m taking you out tonight.”I smiled to myself. It wasn’t unusual for Anders to suggest a spontaneous dinner, especially after a long work week. He, Emmett, and Kwame had been attending a workshop all day, and I assumed he simply wanted a quiet evening with me. So I dressed the way I always did when he took me somewhere special, slipping into a soft champagne-colored dress that made me feel elegant without trying too hard. When he came for me he looked effortlessly handsome in a navy blazer and crisp shirt. His smile warmed me instantly.“You look breathtaking,” he whispered, his eyes twinkling.I flushed,

    SHANEThe world came back in pieces. The slick heat of her skin under mine. The heavy scent of sex in the air. The ache in my muscles. But the silence inside my head was already breaking, shattered by the echo of Anders' low chuckle, the phantom brush of his hand on Carrie’s back. I pulled out of Shelby slowly, my softening cock dragging against her swollen flesh. She made a small, satiated sound, but I was already moving, already consumed.My arms hooked under her knees and behind her shoulders before she could even catch her breath. I lifted her off the sofa. She gasped, her arms looping instinctively around my neck, her body pliant and limp from her climax. “Shane?” Her voice was a husky whisper against my throat. I didn’t answer. I just carried her the few feet to the open space of carpet in front of the cold fireplace and set her down on all fours.The position was stark, vulnerable. Her back arched, the pale, perfect curves of her ass on full display for me. The sight should hav

    SHANE My mind was so much coiling in tension by the time I finished up in my office later that day at the Blackwood Marketing headquarters. It was a physical ache, a hot coal lodged just under my sternum. I knew right then that I had to do something about it. And the only person who could douse the tension was Shelby. I called her and told her I was coming.I didn’t ring the bell at Shelby’s townhouse. I just pushed the door open. The familiar scent of her apartment hit me, soft and welcoming. It made me furious. I needed something harsher. Something real.Shelby appeared from the kitchen, a smile already forming on her pretty, practiced face. “Shane, you’re early. I was just…” She stopped, the smile faltering as she took me in. I knew what she saw: tie loose, collar undone, a wildness in my eyes that wasn’t usually there. “Shane?” she asked, her voice softer, cautious.I didn’t answer with words. I crossed the living room in three long strides to where she was standing, I wasn't g

    SHANE Board meetings were supposed to energize me.At least, they used to.The room was full by the time I walked in; sleek suits, crisp papers, polished laptops, and the subtle hum of controlled excitement. This was my company, different entirely from Blackwood Marketing. It was the baby Liam and I had built from scratch, from late nights to boardrooms, from nothing to global influence. An investment/private Equity firm; Aurion Capital. Normally, the numbers alone would have put a fire in my veins.Not today.“Good morning, gentlemen,” I said as I took my seat at the head of the long glass table.“Morning, Shane,” a few of them echoed, nodding respectfully.Liam, who worked as the CEO of Aurion slid into the seat next to mine, whispering, “We’re about to blow their minds with these numbers. Smile a little.”I tried. I really did. But the muscles refused to cooperate.The CFO stood first, tapping his tablet. “We’ll begin with the quarterly financials. It has been… exceptional.”Char

    ANDERSCarrie's house was quiet by the time I arrived. Leo had been bathed and was sleeping soundly, I didn't expect anything else. The little guy had a very hectic day. Sandy had retired too until the guestroom. Carrie was in the kitchen working on her laptop, her hair untied, the strands fell freely around her shoulders. She said a memo came in her email and she needed the quickly react to it.She looked exhausted, beautiful, but exhausted. My chest tightened at the sight of her. I hated the way the day had weighed her down, how she always tried to hide it behind a forced smile or a quick “I’m fine.” Tonight, she didn’t pretend. She just looked… tired.“I will draw a bath." I said quietly, stepping closer to kiss her on the cheek.She nodded, “thanks, sweet. I'm going to wrap this up in five minutes.”“Okay,” I said and left for the bathroom. I did my magic there and then returned to the kitchen to get her. She was logging off when I walked in. “Right on time,” she smiled tiredly a

    CARRIE If I thought the morning had been magical, the afternoon was something else entirely.The sun finally pushed through the gray clouds, coating the station grounds in a soft, golden glow that made everything look airbrushed and perfect, balloons glittering, streamers waving gently, children running in joyful chaos. Music drifted over the speakers, light and cheerful, the kind that made you want to sway without realizing it.Leo was having the absolute time of his life.I could barely keep track of him. One moment he was toddling toward the bubble machine with his cousins, giggling as bubbles popped right beside his ears, and the next he was in the arms of a staff member who had shamelessly asked, “Can I steal the birthday boy for one minute?”Everyone wanted to hold him. Everyone wanted a picture. Everyone wanted to make him laugh.And he gave them all of it; giggles, claps, open-mouthed smiles, tiny excited kicks.Sofia’s team had set up separate sections: a kids’ activity zone

Most people were already gone for the weekend, drifting out in small groups with tired laughter echoing faintly through the hallways. I loved Fridays for that reason; the q

Sunlight slipped gently through my kitchen blinds, painting gold stripes across the countertop as Sandy and I moved around each other with the easy rhythm of friends who d

    SHANE I woke to the soft vibration of my phone alarm. I had set it two hours later than usual, my body needed the rest, and for once, I listened.I lay still for a moment, staring at the ceiling as the memory of where I was settled over me like a slow fog. Copenhagen. The hotel. The reason I was h

    SHANE The moment the plane touched down in Copenhagen, something inside me tightened…not fear, not excitement, something heavier, something that sat low in my chest like a stone I’d carried for months. I exhaled slowly, looking out through the oval window at the soft evening lights lining the runw
