SLADE'S POV::

Monday mornings always arrive too fast at S.B.D. Motors.

The garage doors are already open, engines rumbling in the distance, somewhere in the factory while the first wave of employees hurry through the glass entrance, clutching coffee and half-finished conversations.

It’s obviously a new week, and of course work has begun again.

Monday mornings? They’ve always been one of my biggest pet peeves.

But do I really have a choice?

Nah. Not even if someone actually gave me th

  • Craved By My Fiance's Brother (An Erotic Billionaire Romance   Chapter 107: Nothing Close To It

    By the time my car finally rolls through the heavy iron gates of the DeWitt estate the following evening, the last bit of daylight is completely gone, leaving the sky pitch black.The driver brings the car to a smooth stop right beneath the grand front portico. I barely have time to reach for the door handle before the butler is already pulling it open from the outside. “Good evening, Miss Clemson,” he says, stepping back smoothly.“Good evening,” I reply.I step out into the cool evening air and immediately smooth down the fabric of my dress—honestly, more out of sheer habit than actual nerves. Or maybe a little bit of both.The butler softly shuts the car door behind me, every move practiced and polite. “They're waiting for you in the family dining room, Miss.”“Thank you.” I give him a quick, polite smile.The second I walk through the front door, the sheer quiet of the mansion hits me. It’s almost creepy how silent it is in here tonight, definitely not what I was expecting from a

  • Craved By My Fiance's Brother (An Erotic Billionaire Romance   Chapter 106: Nathaniel's Grandmother

    I honestly don’t even know how long I just stand there, rooted to the exact same spot on the hardwood after my mother finally turns and walks away.Long enough for the heavy, suffocating silence she always leaves in her wake to completely drop over the room. Long enough for that fake, plastic smile I’d forced onto my face to finally slip off and shatter.The whole house feels unnaturally quiet right now.I let out a slow, ragged breath and practically sink onto the edge of the couch, burying my face in my hands and rubbing my temples hard.God. I am so incredibly exhausted.And it isn't even the kind of normal tiredness that a good, long night’s sleep can fix, either. It’s that deep, heavy ache that settles right into your bones, the kind that makes even the smallest, dumbest decisions feel like you're trying to move mountains.Right on cue, my phone starts vibrating against the cushion right next to my hip. The sharp, aggressive buzz cuts straight through the silence of the quiet roo

  • Craved By My Fiance's Brother (An Erotic Billionaire Romance   Chapter 105: I am So Not Okay

    The question follows me like a shadow all the way to the parking garage and into my car. And no matter how many different ways I turn it over and pick it apart in my head, I can't find a single answer that doesn't completely hurt.The drive back feels twice as long as it usually does. By the time I finally pull into my parents' driveway, the dull headache that started right around lunch has settled firmly behind my eyes, throbbing perfectly in time with my pulse.I kill the engine and just sit there in the driver's seat for a minute, both hands still resting flat on the steering wheel. I don't move. I don't even have the energy to open the door at this moment.But the front door of the house swings open before I can even gather enough motivation to unbuckle my seatbelt.“There's the soon-to-be-Mrs-DeWitt!” my mother calls out from the porch, waving me over with the kind of high-energy excitement only she seems capable of maintaining twenty-four hours a day.I close my eyes for a quick

    MEEKA'S POV::A hollow laugh catches in my throat, sounding way too loud in the quiet room.God, what the hell is actually wrong with me?This is exactly what I’ve been begging for ever since I walked out of his apartment, right? I wanted space, and total silence. I wanted him to just leave me the hell alone.So why does finally getting exactly what I asked for feel so much like losing something I can't afford to lose?I stare back down at my computer screen, watching the numbers on the spreadsheet blur together into a gray mess again.Honestly. This seriously has to stop right now before I actually run mad.I force my back straight against the uncomfortable office chair and click open a random report, determined to do something, absolutely anything that keeps my brain from drifting back to Slade fucking DeWitt.I check one email down, then another, approving two invoices in a row without even reading the line items.Halfway through a third one, my brain actually registers the screen

    I rub my hand over my forehead, trying to force some actual focus into my brain. “Come on, Meeka. Just do your job. Read the stupid report, check the fabric designs sent , think about the wedding, think about literally anything else.I manage to keep my eyes on the screen for maybe thirty seconds tops, before my mind just completely drifts away again. And it doesn't go to flower arrangements, or the seating chart, or even the rehearsal dinner. It doesn't even go to Nathaniel. Instead, it goes straight back to the one place I’ve been desperately trying to avoid for the past one week.Slade.My fingers freeze right over the keyboard. For a complete one week, the guy wouldn't leave me alone. He was calling me non-stop. Morning, afternoon, late at night when I was trying to sleep. My phone was constantly lighting up with voicemails, texts, paragraphs of explanations, literally anything he could think of just to beg me to meet up with him.And then, now there's nothing. Just sudden, total

    MEEKA'S POV::“And honestly, if we don't get the approval from CK by Friday, the entire launch is going to be pushed back. I was thinking we could bypass them and go straight to accounting, but I wanted to check if you had the—"The voice is just background noise. A dull, rhythmic sound of the office AC and the distant clacking of keyboards that do not register at all, are all I can hear from a distance.“Meeka? You layout the budget for that yet? Meeka....? Meeka!”I stay frozen, staring straight at the glowing computer screen while my fingers hover totally uselessly over the keys. The rows and columns are just a massive, blurry jumble at this point. Quarterly projections, expense reports, and designs that need an approval stamp by the end of the day. It all just looks like a wall of meaningless black text. I realize I've been staring at the exact same sentence for a solid fifteen minutes now, and if someone asked me right this second, I couldn't tell them a single thing it actually

    The drive to Meeka’s place is even quieter than the night itself.She’s slumped in the passenger seat, buried in the jacket I practically forced onto her the second she stopped shaking enough to walk. Her hands are tucked deep into the sleeves, like she’s trying to disappear inside the fabric. Sin

    "Meeka."Hearing my real name stops me in my tracks.Even though I’m still angry with him, I dislike that he called me that. I wish he understood just how much I’ve come to hate it when he uses my name instead of the other one he calls me, and hearing it now only tightens something in my chest.I l
