Susan

The morning light seeped through the curtains, casting a soft glow across Meera’s apartment. I blinked awake, the events of last night crashing down like a tidal wave. My head throbbed, not from the wine but from the weight of my choices.

I had betrayed Elliot’s trust.

And worse...I had done it knowing exactly how much it would hurt him.

I turned on my side, expecting Meera to still be asleep, but she was already sitting up against the headboard, scrolling through her phone.

“Morning, traitor.” She didn’t even look up as she spoke, but the sarcasm was thick in her tone.

I groaned, burying my face into the pillow. “I don’t need the judgment this early.”

“Well, too bad,” she snapped, tossing her phone onto the bed. “Elliot called me twice.”

That got my attention. I shot up, my heart beating rapidly. “What?”

“And texted,” she added, handing me her phone.

I hesitated before reading.

Elliot Prescott: Where is she?

Elliot Prescott: She’s not at the penthouse. If she’s with you, tell

  • Falling For My Billionaire Ex    Just Us

    Susan The room faded behind me the moment Elliot led me away, our fingers entwined like lifelines. I barely remembered who was clapping or who raised a glass. My heels clicked down the polished hallway as we walked in silence, hearts pounding too loud to speak.We didn’t go to the main lounge or his office. He took me through the back stairs to the quietest wing of the estate...the old library no one used anymore.He opened the double doors and guided me inside.Warm, dim and dusty in a beautiful, forgotten way. The golden lamplight flickered against the wood-paneled walls.Elliot let go of my hand only to pull off his blazer and toss it onto the old armchair. He turned to me slowly. “Was it too much?”I laughed, covering my face. “Are you insane? You just announced our wedding date in front of a boardroom full of corporate royalty and both our mothers.”He crossed the room, eyes soft. “And you said yes without saying a word.”I looked up at him, heart swelling. “How long were you pl

  • Falling For My Billionaire Ex    The Moment He Chose Forever

    Susan’s NarrativeThe drive home was quiet. Not the uncomfortable kind, but the kind that wraps around you like a soft blanket after a long day. Elliot's hand rested over mine the whole way, his thumb brushing gentle circles against my knuckles. He hadn’t stopped smiling since we left the airport, and yet something in his eyes told me he was hiding something. Not in a sinister way—more like… anticipation.I leaned back into the seat and studied his profile. Confident. Handsome. Focused.“What?” he asked, catching me in the act.“Nothing. You’re just…” I hesitated, then smiled. “Suspiciously happy.”He chuckled, eyes never leaving the road. “Can’t a man be in a good mood after a successful trip with the woman he loves?”“Hmm. You can,” I replied, narrowing my eyes, “but not when you’re glancing at your watch every two minutes.”He kissed the back of my hand. “You’ll see soon enough.”That didn’t help. At all.By the time we arrived at the Prescott estate, dusk was settling in, bathing

  • Falling For My Billionaire Ex    The Morning After

    SusanThe warmth of Elliot’s body anchored me in place, his arm draped over my waist like he had no intention of letting me go. His breathing was slow and steady, his chest rising and falling beneath my cheek.I blinked against the soft golden light streaming through the curtains, my body still aching in the best way possible from the night before.I should get up.But for once, I didn’t want to move.Not when Elliot’s fingers were lazily tracing patterns along my spine. Not when the scent of him...warm, musky, familiar...wrapped around me like a cocoon.I shifted slightly, but the moment I did, his grip tightened, pulling me back against him.“Where do you think you’re going?” His voice was thick with sleep, rasping against my ear.I smiled, tilting my head back to meet his gaze. His dark hair was a tousled mess, his jaw dusted with stubble, and his eyes...still heavy with sleep...watched me like I was the only thing that mattered in the world.“I need to get up,” I murmured.“No, yo

  • Falling For My Billionaire Ex    The Distance Between Us

    ElliotI used to believe I was a patient man. That no matter how chaotic life became, I could handle it with control and precision.But Susan was testing me in ways I never imagined.I sat at the dining table, fingers tapping rhythmically against the wooden surface. The clock on the wall mocked me—11:47 PM.She was late, again.Dinner had gone cold an hour ago, and the bottle of whiskey I’d sworn I wouldn’t touch was now half-empty.The moment I heard the front door click open, I tensed. Her footsteps slow. Then, the sight of her...exhausted, her hair slightly messy, dressed in a sleek business suit that reminded me just how deep she had buried herself in that damn foundation.She barely glanced my way as she set her purse down, stretching her neck. “You’re still up?”I let out a slow exhale. “No, Susan. I’m sleepwalking.”Her lips pressed together, and I knew I’d hit a nerve. But I didn’t care.“I had a long day, Elliot.” She rubbed her temples, sighing. “Please don’t start.”I pushe

  • Falling For My Billionaire Ex    Us

    Susan I barely had time to think before Elliot’s lips crashed into mine.It wasn’t soft. It wasn’t patient.It was raw.Like a man who had been starving for too long. Like someone at their breaking point.I gasped against his mouth, but he didn’t let me pull away. His hands gripped my waist, fingers digging in as if to remind me exactly who I belonged to.I had pushed him away for weeks.Tonight, he wasn’t letting me run.His lips traveled down my jaw, hot and demanding, his breath ragged against my skin. My knees threatened to buckle when his teeth scraped the sensitive spot just beneath my ear."Tell me you missed me," he growled.I shuddered, clutching his shoulders. "Elliot..."His grip tightened. "Say it."I swallowed hard, my pulse hammering. "I missed you."A low curse left his lips before he lifted me effortlessly, carrying me toward the bedroom. My arms wrapped around his neck, and my body molded against his as he kicked the door shut behind us.I barely had time to process

  • Falling For My Billionaire Ex    Missing Her

    Elliot I woke up alone again.The other side of the bed was empty, the sheets cool to the touch. I ran a hand through my hair, irritation already simmering beneath my skin. This had become a pattern...Susan leaving at dawn before I even got the chance to hold her, to talk to her, to feel like we were still us.I sat up and reached for my phone.No messages. No missed calls. Nothing.With a sigh, I tossed the device onto the nightstand and stared at the ceiling.She had promised this wouldn't happen. That her new position at the foundation wouldn’t consume her, that she wouldn’t lose herself in proving a point to my mother.Yet, here I was. Alone. Again.My patience was wearing thin.I climbed out of bed, threw on some sweatpants, and headed to the kitchen, where I found Gerald waiting for me. He was standing by the counter, sipping coffee, his expression unreadable."You look like hell," he noted dryly."Good morning to you too, Gerald," I muttered, grabbing a mug and pouring myself
