ANITA'S POV "At first, it was your physical attributes. Like your hair and your manner of sleeping that had me hooked. That night I had kissed you at Atlantis Hotel, you seemed like her somehow. Although I was drunk." Ryan sighed, before continuing. "It's crazy, but that's how it was at first. However, getting to know you and seeing you almost everyday for the past one month, you didn't look like her at all. I found out that you are your own person and it was my mistake for trying to give you an identity that wasn't yours because of my heartbroken longing. It's a lesson I've learnt and I'm very sorry for my mistake." "So you knelt down to beg me to be your substitute because of this? How disappointing." I chuckled, despite how hurt I was feeling inwardly. Ryan shook his head and continued. "Not exactly. When you kept refusing my offer, it made me curious and I wanted to know you even better. I felt convinced that it had to be you. And I just knew I wouldn't have anyone else.
ANITA'S POV I leaned my back against my room door as I stared into space in shock. I had no idea what came over me. If not for the butleress interruption, Ryan and I would have gone on the path of no return. I sighed, placing my hands on my chest as though that would stop my heart from pounding so loudly against my ribcage. But that felt so good, more than anything I had ever experienced. And a part of me couldn't wait to experience it again. And when he called me 'Ma Chérie', my legs literally turned to jelly. I thought the new pet name was only for the public but I guess I was wrong. The fact that he called me that even in private, meant something more. To be desired by a man like Ryan Rivers... I say a fuckin yes to that! I walked over to the vanity in my room, and with rosy cheeks, I stared at my reflection and tried to fix myself before going downstairs to meet him for dinner.__ "Do you always take pills after dinner?" Ryan asked me the moment he walked in
RYAN'S POV "Then show me." She dared. I paused to briefly trail my thumb along the line of her upper lips. "This mouth of yours, would get you in trouble soon." My voice was husky and it was only a moment's more before I would completely lose control and fuck her so hard till she's screaming my name for all who cared to hear. Unexpectedly, she parted her lips and took in my thumb. And with her eyes seductively locked against mine, she slowly and sexually sucked on it. "What sort of trouble?" She innocently asked, her voice laced with pure seduction. My cock strained even harder against my pants, begging for release. My eyes darkened. I lowered my hand on her back until it rested against the softness of her ass. Then I squeezed suddenly, and without a warning, I pulled her up and slammed her core against the huge bulge of my pants. She let out a breathy gasp. "Troubles like this." I brushed my lips against hers. "Hmm," She moaned, easily wrapping her legs around m
RYAN'S POV I forced myself to relax. It might be different from what I was thinking. "What ex?" I asked him calmly. "Wait, you don't know?" He excitedly continued. "You're in the entertainment industry and you mean you don't know your 'model wife' was involved in a scandal with an actor about two years ago?" Milton said in disbelief. I exhaled softly in relief. Thank the heavens. "Oh, that?" I smiled and walked to the large floor to ceiling window in my office. "That was just a rumor. They had met on set and because of their chemistry while modeling for 'Dolce and Gabbana', some fans started shipping them together and that's how the rumors began that they were dating. I can't believe you thought that was true. It's an old news and both parties had clarified it wasn't true. Do your findings properly, my friend." "Wow! See how fast you went into details about this. I never knew you were this swift." He said and I smiled. "Well, I'm guessing you already know everyth
RYAN'S POV "'Crescent Moon, Royal Love' starts filming in a few days, right?" I said as I flipped through a document. I was at my company, having the regular month-end meeting with the managers of my artists, models and actors. The freelance lawyer working with the company was present as well. The meeting was taking place at the usual location, the large board room of Opulence Entertainment's building. "Yes, Sir. They would start filming after the read-through in two days." Bluey offered. He's the manager of top Actress Unice. Unice was the lead female actress in the upcoming movie 'Crescent Moon, Royal Love'. And she's really good at pulling crowds and had also won the love of the city on numerous occasions in the last three years since her debut. "That's great," I nodded as my gaze travelled over diverse faces and across the large meeting room, noticing Kaia's manager wasn't around. They had both gone to Paris for the Paris fashion week and were scheduled to return today
ANITA'S POV A week later, I was busy in Paris for the all-time famous Paris fashion week. The experience was fun as usual and had ended today. I was scheduled to leave for NYC tomorrow and I really couldn't wait to be home. I've missed the kids so much even though I made sure to communicate with them daily. And, I've missed Ryan too. I couldn't help admitting it, not after our 'situationship' had somewhat taken a positive step from what it's meant to be after that kiss. I felt blood rushed to my face as the thought occured to me. I smiled shyly as I went through my Insta, secretly feeling grateful that Kristen wasn't currently in the hotel suite with me. She had gone to make preparations concerning our departure to NYC tomorrow. Earlier, I had taken photos and selfies after the show and uploaded them on my social media platforms and stories. And Ryan had 'hearted' and left sweet comments on each post as usual, earning the dramatic swooning and support of our fans in the
