~Amber’s POV~

I played with my fingers absently, twisting them together in my lap, pulling at the hem of his shirt that I was still wearing, anything to keep my hands occupied while my eyes stayed focused on the blurring roads outside the window.

Because I didn’t want them to focus on the last threat playing over and over in my head.

That didn’t let the food digest even though it tasted the exact same it smelled, made it feel like it was still lodged in my throat minutes later after getting in

  • Fated to my One Night Stand    Chapter One Hundred and Thirty Two: The Plan

    ~Axel’s POV~“If I wasn’t so drop dead gorgeous myself, I would have thought it unfair that people like you existed.”The raspy voice met me the moment I stepped back into my office and my eyes immediately narrowed with irritation, finding Demi’s turned up lips before anything else in the room.My lips parted but she beat me to the exact question I was about to ask.“Please don’t be so cliché to ask how I got in here.” She drawled. “You are way too hot for that. And if you must know, that’s a door. I walked through it.”“Then walk right back through it and get out of my office.” I deadpanned moving past her to take my seat. She chose that moment to lower herself into the seat opposite me, crossing her legs with the deliberate slowness of someone making a point entirely through movement. For a very brief second my eyes registered it before they came back to her smiling face, the kind of smile that anyone stupid enough would let their guard down for if it was ever directed at them.“

  • Fated to my One Night Stand   Chapter One Hundred and Thirty One: And So It Begins...

    ~Amber’s POV~It felt… anticlimactic. Right?Again with me pushing questions at no one in particular when I knew I would not be getting answers, because I genuinely had no idea who I was even asking and the ceiling of this restaurant was not about to start talking back to me.“Amber.” The fingers snapping in front of my face pulled me back and I blinked at Rosella meeting the frown that had been sitting on her face for the better part of this lunch.My mouth opened to apologize, which would have been the fourth time, but she got there before I could.“Why would you agree to have lunch if you were just going to spend the whole time staring into space?”“I know, I know. I’m sorry.” The same words I had said the last three times and from the look I received in return I could see she had reached the absolute limit of how many times she was willing to accept them.I closed my eyes, ran my hand through my hair and tried to find a way to explain the thing I had been trying to explain to my

  • Fated to my One Night Stand   Chapter One Hundred and Thirty: Too Easy

    ~Amber’s POV~I let the shock that immediately turned to irritation mixed with anger stay on his face for exactly three seconds before the grin I could not contain anymore spread across mine.“I’m joking. I’m joking.”The anger faded into just irritation and that alone made the grin slip. “Okay. Okay. I’m sorry. I will behave myself from now on, I promise.”Silence followed and for a moment the two of us just stared at each other while he gently rocked Asher since I supposed we were calling him Asher and then the question that had been sitting at the back of my throat since he walked in took root properly and I had no choice but to voice it.“How are you so sure he is yours?” My voice came out quieter than I intended. “I mean, he is. You are the only person I have ever been with and it was the night that started all of this but…”I trailed off not entirely sure how to finish that sentence.“I might not be as good with numbers as you but I do know how to calculate.” He said it evenly.

  • Fated to my One Night Stand    Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Nine: Asher

    ~Amber’s POV~Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.Plink. Plink. Plink. Plink.Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep.That was how silent the hospital ward was.So silent that I could hear the clock hand moving, the tap in the bathroom that refused to close fully, and the machine I had been was hooked up to that had been announcing my vitals to no one in particular. And in the middle of all of that silence, the two of us, as in me in the hospital bed and Axel who had arrived thirty eight seconds ago, approximately six hundred seconds after I had given birth to a child I had not known I was having just stared at each other.The baby was asleep in my arms.I had been cycling through things to say for what was now sixty seven seconds and not a single one of them was working.“The beard is new?” That one was going for comedy and given everything, the five months, the things that had been said, the small baby currently sleeping between us, there was simply nothing funny about this situation. “You look

  • Fated to my One Night Stand   Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Eight: The Universe Has It Out for Me cSpecifically

    ~Amber’s POV~Was I a coward?The answer would have been a capital NO because I was brave, which was exactly why I got into so many unprincess-like situations, but today that capital N and that capital O had slowly shrunk into lowercase letters before eventually rearranging themselves entirely into the three lettered opposite.Because I had arrived at the mansion with all that bravery sitting on top of my racing heart, knowing full well, if I was being honest with myself, which I was trying very hard not to be that I had timed my arrival specifically because I knew he would be at the company by then.Which would give me enough time to settle my nerves. To walk through the space. To get used to being in the same proximity as him before actually having to be in the same proximity as him.Unfortunately for me, he was there.I felt it the moment I stepped inside the mansion. That particular awareness that had never once failed to announce him regardless of how much I wished it would. So

  • Fated to my One Night Stand   Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Seven: Stalker Axel

    ~Axel’s POV~“You know what you are doing is trying to get her attention so why don’t you just pick up the phone and call her. Or even more obviously, get on a plane, the private jet which you have and go see her.”I leaned back in my chair and looked at Zane across the desk, taking in the expression on his face that had been cycling through variations of the same thing for five months now. Frustration wearing different clothes depending on the day but always, unmistakably, the same frustration underneath.“Do you know what I just realized?”“I already know I am going to regret asking this but what?”“That you have not shut up for one single second over the last five months.”The glare he gave me in response had been hardening incrementally with each passing day, like something that had started soft and been left out long enough to set permanently. “That is because you completely went downhill the moment you got back and yes, I understand that she lied to you. I understand it and I

    ~Amber’s POV~Unfortunately… he was right.But more specifically, he was right because I looked worse than a beast. My hair was tangled into what could only be described as a bird’s nest on top of my head, mascara smudged under my eyes, and was that… dried spit at the corner of my mouth?I didn’t

    ~Axel’s POV~‘Come on, Axel, it’s one in the afternoon the next day.’‘I am well aware of that,’ I answered simply into the psychic link between Zane and me.His groan followed, as expected.‘I have apologized over and over even though none of this was my fault. I did try to stop you before you mar

    ~Amber’s POV~There wasn’t an ounce of recognition.He didn’t know I was his mate.I didn’t understand why and that exact perplexity was exactly how Roxanne felt. It was the only thing that registered as I made my way back to my room, found my things where I had left them, pulled them into the spac

    ~Amber’s POV~This bitch must really think I was playing around.“My wolf is growing agitated by each second I allow you to stay breathing and I am this close to seeing if killing you will end the spell.”I intended to follow through with the threat and the fear in her eyes got more obvious.“I am
