Dirty Little Secret Chapter 27
The next morning, I woke up in his bed, next to only the memories of last night's crazy sex. The best sex I ever had in my entire life. My legs are still jelly even after a genuinely nice nap. "Shit." I jump up right, my hair must be a real mess. I started searching for my clothes."Morning, baby girl." Lorenzo strolls in, with only jeans on. Carrying a glass filled with orange juice. "I don’t know how you take your coffee, so I bought you juice." He says placing it on the bedside table. Lorenzo plots down next to me and kisses my forehead. "Did you sleep well?""Uh, yes." I smile sweetly, sipping on the juice as last night’s event plays off in my head. Lorenzo’s phone starts to ring. "Well, shower is in there, you can grab one of my shirts if you’d like." He points towards the bathroom and stands as he plants a kiss on my head, leaving me alone in his huge bedroom, that smells of his cologne. A shower will be great. I grab the black silky sheet and wrap myself in its luxurious e

There are times when we wish we can rewind the clock and get back the time wasted on ridiculous people and stupid mistakes, but those are the times that make us or break us. It's all up to you. You are your own worst enemy."Lorenzo!" I storm into the room without even knocking. Lorenzo jumps to his feet and rushes to my side."Lilly-Ann?" He wraps me up in his arms. "What is the matter, baby girl?""I need you to take me to my sister, please." I can feel the tears burning in my eyes."Yeah, come let's go." Lorenzo grabs my hand and pull me out of the office, Jaxon sit still, staring as we exit. His blank expression confuses me, Jaxon looked surprised at first but he didn’t utter a word, was that fear in his eyes or something else?We step into the garage, my eyes widen at his impressive collection. Who needs this many cars? There must be twenty or more, neatly parked cars stack in the garage as they gleam in the dim lit space. Varied of colors and models, from sleek sports cars with

The atmosphere is one of constant motion, with reporters typing away at their computers, making phone calls, and interviewing sources. This is the first time the office came to life, like hell, everyone is working even the slackers. A soft chuckle escapes me as my eyes scans over the busy office. Something is up, this is not normal, not for this place at least. I make my way to the elevator. "Great, why must the elevator be out of service today of all days." I pout and start to jog upstairs."What's going on?" I ask Will breathlessly as I reach his desk."Oh, the big boss is coming in today, or should I say the new big boss." Will rolls his eyes. "He some hot shot from England.""What?" I frown, what the hell does he want with a newspaper from New York?"Lilly-Ann!" Regina calls my name but with a hint of anger and irritation in her voice."Well, I need to go." I widen my eyes at Will; he fully understands the, oh shit, expression on my face."Shut the door," Regina says as she gaze t

I slide into the driver’s seat, grabbing the steering wheel tight, smiling like a child who just got a new toy, a soft giggle escapes me. Lorenzo smirks at me as he put his seatbelt on. A frown pulls on my forehead as he brace himself. “Don’t trust me?”Lorenzo just grins in response, “Drive, baby girl.” The engine roar’s to life, a deep growl vibrates through the car and up into my bones, as a stream of adrenalin gushes through my body. “If I knew you’d enjoy it this much I would have let you drive a long time ago.” His eyes sparkle with joy as we pull out the parking lot and speed down the road.The power is intoxicating, now I know why he prefers this car.
