SLOANE’S POINT OF VIEW.

The doors opened slowly, soft music strumming from the band section added to the goosebumps lining my arms. Dad stood beside me with a tear-filled gaze, his eyes filled with joy as he smiled at me. “The big day.” He whispered, making me smile at him while fighting tears. Even though the makeup was waterproof, if I dared cry, Amara would somehow know and probably skin me alive for it.

“Dad…. don't cry, if you cry, I'll cry too.” I smiled.

“I know.” He chuckled, wiping the few droplets of tears that managed to escape his eyes. “Its just…it feels like a dream. You know, once upon a time, I wondered if I would ever get to see you recognize me, especially after the fire. The second I opened my eyes, I was so scared you wouldn’t recognize me that I fought myself constantly over it for days.

Seeing you like this, on your wedding day, being able to walk you down the aisle…it’s a privilege I never thought I’d get, Sloane.” he wiped his tears again. I swallowed the knot

    AURORA’S POINT OF VIEW.The second our eyes met, I felt the room turn to ice. My blood pulsed, as did the pace of my heartbeat. For a moment, his dark eyes appeared shocked, and all of a sudden, they were filled with heat, passion, and anger….a combination that set my heart on fire years ago, and even now. It caused me to falter slightly in the next move, something that had never happened before. ]I collected myself before anyone would see it, and focused instead on ensuring served a show. My hips rubbed while my ass bounded rhythmically to the beat of the music, my vision slightly blurred over not just from the dollar bills being sprayed all over the stage, but also the memories he conjured in my mind just by a mere eye contact.The life I’d abandoned, not by choice, but because my stepmother decided to pounce the second my father had a heart attack. It’d been the perfect afternoon. Kai and I had agreed to start dating. I’d liked him from the moment I walked through the doors of R

  • SERVING MR CEO AT MIDNIGHT FOR FOURTEEN DAYS. 21+   EPILOGUE.....HAPPY EVER AFTER AND A WEDDING.

    SEVEN YEARS AFTER.LUCIEN’S POINT OF VIEW.I always knew I would marry Sloane. Or rather, the thought was always engraved in my soul from the very moment I saw her walk through the golden doors of Ravenscroft High; I guess I just needed to fall in love with her first to fully realize it. We weren’t before a large crowd or extravagant décor, filled with the press breathing down on us with every moment.We didn’t need it. I wanted it, I wanted to show the world how beautiful a bride Sloane would make, but she was shy; she didn’t want it. So I respected it. Gathered around was only family. Sloane’s family, mine, the horsemen, and the girls. We’d lived together throughout college, even though Sloane objected at first. There was no point fighting it; I wouldn’t live anywhere she wasn’t. The reason I chose the college she went to was that she was going to be there.Studying business was a breeze; there was nothing taught that I didn’t already know, so it felt like time just folded over, wh

    SLOANE’S POINT OF VIEW.“I’m getting in my car already.” I giggled on the phone with Lucien; his raspy voice streaming through the speakers made my toes curl with excitement. He was taking me out on a date to the Spot, and would have rather driven me, but I convinced him to let me try driving myself there for once. The other day, he went to see Killian at the mental hospital with the guys. From what I was told, Kilian suffered from a rare form of Schizophrenia, and because of that, he had hallucinations that convinced him false events were true and real.It was why he thought I was his first long before Lucien and I even started our fake dating saga that turned real. A part of me felt bad for him, but I wasn’t able to visit him…..I don’t think I can yet. So I opted to send him a note last week when Lucien went with the guys on their weekly visits again. At the end of the day, they were always going to be friends. Killian would always be a horseman, no matter what happens.Now, we can

    KAI’S POINT OF VIEW.Her voice….it was still the same as the last time I’d heard it. I thought I knew how much I’d missed it…until I heard it for the first time since after what felt like forever. She looked ethereal, and it wasn’t because of the way she was dressed. It was the way she’d matured, but even as I tried to keep myself calm, to restrain my desire to pull her into my arms, kiss her, and hug her so she wouldn’t leave me again….so I wouldn’t…lose her all over again.I could see something haunted in her eyes….it looked like perfectly concealed pain, like something she’d kept hidden for so long that she’d masked it so wonderfully, the average man wouldn’t see it. But I could see it. Maybe it was because of the kind of man I’d become, or the simple fact that I knew her. “Twenty thousand dollars.” She scoffed, a pained laugh escaped her perfect red lips. She looked away from me, and it felt like someone had shot me. ‘No…please let me see you again.’ I yelled on the inside. I did

    AURORA’S POINT OF VIEW.“A private dance….um…” I stuttered, my hands still trembled at the thought of Kai in that crowd. He represented everything I have tried to keep buried, to hide….but seeing him here, one glance….it was enough to bring the past five years of pain back….and I wanted to drown in the heartache. “Yes,” Greyson grunted. Licking my dry lips, I looked around for a second, thinking Kai would suddenly jump out or materialize from nothing and pounce on me. “I am really tired…..Can’t I just head home and allow Vickie to take care of this instead?’ He still didn’t look at me; rather, he kept his gaze above my head. I couldn’t even see what he thought, because the man wore sunglasses and had a stoic expression on his face at all times. “No.” “Please, Greyson….I can cut you half of tonight’s earnings if you want.” I offered. I was so desperate. Although that money would have gone in support of mom’s medical treatment, I couldn’t risk seeing Kai….not tonight, not ever. Too
