Anastasia POV

I woke up the next morning feeling exhausted. I hadn't been able to sleep after my conversation with Nikolai. His words kept replaying in my mind, the way he'd looked at me, the way he'd accused me of avoiding him. I'd tossed and turned for hours, my thoughts spiraling.

I got ready for work, trying to push him out of my mind. Luckily, there was no sign of him at home, which made it easier. I didn't have to worry about dodging him or pretending I wasn't affected by his presence.

  • Bound By A Billion-Dollar Lie   The pool and sprain

    Nikolai POVI couldn't help the smile that plastered on my face hearing Anastasia's accusation of me talking too much.She was looking at me with that defiant glint in her eyes. The moonlight reflected off the water, casting a soft glow across her face. She was beautiful. Infuriating. Completely irresistible."You think I talk too much?" I asked, my voice low."I know you do.""Then maybe I should do something instead."Before she could react, I pushed her. She let out a surprised shriek as she toppled backward into the pool, the water splashing up around her. She surfaced a moment later, sputtering, her hair plastered to her face."Nikolai!" she gasped. "I can't believe you just did that!"I laughed, the sound warm and genuine. "You said I talk too much, so I was trying to be you know, more... action-oriented."She glared at me, but there was no heat in it, then a slow smile spread across her face."Two can play at that game," she said.She reached up, grabbing my ankle, and yanked.

  • Bound By A Billion-Dollar Lie   Breaking his own rules

    Anastasia POVI laid on the bed, my phone pressed to my ear, a glass of wine balanced on my stomach. The room was quiet except for the soft hum of the air conditioning and Zara's voice crackling through the speaker. I had been on the phone with her for about five minutes."So," Zara said, her voice deceptively casual. "How's Elias?"I laughed, rolling my eyes. "You just asked me about Elias five minutes ago.""Because you didn't give me a proper answer.""Your answer was 'he's fine.' That is not an answer. It just sounds like you're trying to get rid of me.”"Zara, I don't know what you want me to say. He's been busy,we've both been busy. I haven't had time to interrogate him about his feelings for you.""Interrogate? I didn't ask you to interrogate him. I just asked you to... observe, you know, casually. Like a normal person."I snorted. "You want me to be a spy.""I want you to be a friend who's willing to do a little reconnaissance.""Reconnaissance? What is this, a military operat

  • Bound By A Billion-Dollar Lie   Goodbye to Athens

    Anastasia's POV One week went by so fast that I felt like time was against us. It felt like just yesterday we'd arrived in Athens and the city was out before us, ready to explore and now, somehow, a week had passed. A week of laughter and discovery, of lazy mornings and passionate nights, of learning things about Nikolai that I'd never known. I'd learned his favorite meal (a traditional Greek lamb dish his grandmother used to make). I'd learned that he loved classic rock and could play the piano. I'd learned that he'd always wanted to learn to paint, but never had the time. I'd learned about his childhood, his dreams, his fears. I'd learned that he was so much more than the cold, controlled businessman he pretended to be and there was, of course, the mind-blowing sex I couldn't quite get over. Every night had been a revelation. He was attentive, creative, utterly devoted to my pleasure. He knew exactly how to touch me, how to make me gasp, how to reduce me to a trembling mess. I'

  • Bound By A Billion-Dollar Lie   The confession

    Nikolai POVI'm completely captivated, watching Anastasia eat and rambling about how amazing each meal was, rating each dish with exaggerated enthusiasm. Her eyes lit up with every bite, her words tumbling out in a joyful rush that made me grin."This tastes absolutely amazing," she said, pointing at her plate with her fork. "I mean, I knew you had good taste, but this is……" She took another bite, closing her eyes in bliss. "......this is transcendent.""Transcendent?""Please don't mock me, because right now I'm having a moment."I laughed, shaking my head. "Nahh, I'm not mocking, just simply enjoying the show."She opened one eye, glaring at me playfully. "You're enjoying watching me eat?""I'm enjoying watching you enjoy yourself." I leaned back, my eyes never leaving her. "It's amusing seeing you this way."She blinked, caught off guard by my words, then she looked away, a faint blush creeping up her cheeks. "You're being weird," she mumbled, while eating."I'm being honest.""Exa

  • Bound By A Billion-Dollar Lie   A private day

    Anastasia POVHearing Leona's voice brought back memories of the deal I had tried to make with her.The file she brought, which was full of contracts, the promises of deals that could take Reed & Associates to new heights. The condition attached to the benefits of having me break my engagement with Nikolai and leave him.I remembered how I'd almost considered striking a deal with her, desperate to get over Bianca's latest scam, I'd actually thought about it. I'd hated the mere thought of her, but I'd been so lost, so afraid, that I'd almost reached out.Watching Leona and Nikolai talk now, I couldn't help but think about how much I would have regretted that decision if Nikolai hadn't swooped in to help me out.He'd paid the debt, settled the issue. He had done it without asking for anything in return and now, watching him interact with Leona, I felt a surge of gratitude so powerful it almost knocked the breath out of me.Leona and Nikolai eventually closed the gap between us. She was

My body instantly flooded with the heat of wanting him immediately.He took his time, trailing kisses from neck, his warm breath hitting my skin making me arch in pleasure. His tongue slowly moved down from my neck to my boobs, taking in each nip into his mouth, sucking on it gently. I closed my eyes, my lips parting, a low moan escaping my lips as I took in and enjoyed every moment of his mouth on my nip.“Enough teasing Nikolai, I want you right now.” I demanded with a seductive tone while I looked at him with lust.He didn't hesitate, he took off his robe, pinning both arms to the bed, his eyes with dark dirty intentions as it burned through me.
