She loved him when he had absolutely nothing. When the tough times came, he was the one who let her down. Three years ago Dominic Hale was the one who broke Arielle Moores heart. He was her first, the man who knew every inch of her body, every way to make her fall apart. Then he just left her there like a broken piece. He's now the CEO of a billion, dollar company, and she is the designer whos been hired to renovated his office. And one thing they still had in common? Their chemistry never faded. One glance and she is reliving his touch on her skin. One breath and he is terribly tempted to remind her just whose she used to be. Six months of close proximity. Business meetings that seem like foreplay. Boundaries that are falling apart with every passionate gaze. When at last, she breaks and kisses him desperate, hungry, all three years of need they both acknowledge: this was never truly over. He wants her back. Whole. She wants to protect her heart. But her body is still yearning for his touch. His manipulative ex shows up again. Her brother overdoses. And all of a sudden, staying away from each other becomes totally impossible especially when he appears at the very moment she needs him, just like in the old times. He had her once and lost her. He is not going to make the same mistake again. And he knows exactly how to get her back in his arms.

HIS TO LOSE Chapter 19: Still Raining At Ten
Saturday came in quietly.No meetings, no calls, no Jared this weekend. Just the apartment, the grey sky outside and too much time to think.I picked up my phone somewhere around noon.I wouldn't mind some company today.I sent it before I could talk myself out of it. Set the phone down. Picked it up again.Her reply came twelve minutes later.I’ll think about it.She was at my door by two.“You thought fast,” I said when I opened it.She walked past me into the apartment. “Don’t make it a thing.”I smiled and closed the door.She made herself comfortable on the couch while I moved around the kitchen checking what I had.Not enough.“I’m going to get a few things.” I grabbed my keys. “Are you good here?”She was already reaching for the remote. “Don’t rush.”I stood there for a second looking at her settled into my couch like she’d done it a hundred times, shoes off, legs tucked underneath her.I left before I said something unnecessary.The store was quick. Twenty minutes, in and out.
Last Updated : 2026-07-19HIS TO LOSE Chapter 18:Everything about this was casual (I guess)
Dinner at Dominic’s was supposed to be casual.That’s what I told myself when I was getting dressed — it’s just dinner, don’t overthink it. I changed twice before settling on a fitted tank, light wash denim skirt and my brown leather belt. Tied a scarf around my hair, kept the jewelry simple. Looked in the mirror and decided I looked effortlessly put together.It took forty minutes.I told myself it was just returning the visit.He has been to my place twice now. It was only fair.That was the story I was going with.I rang his doorbell at half past six.He opened the door in a simple fitted tee and grey sweats.I was not prepared for that.“You actually dressed down.” It came out before I could stop it.He stepped aside to let me in. “It’s my apartment.”Fair enough.His apartment was exactly what I expected and nothing like it at the same time. Clean, intentional, expensive without trying too hard. The kind of space that said someone lived here and actually thought about it.I stepp

The office was quieter by six.I’d loosened my tie somewhere between the fourth meeting and the fifth, jacket thrown over the back of my chair, laptop open to a report I’d been staring at for twenty minutes without actually reading.A knock at the door pulled me out of it.“Come in.”Arielle pushed the door open, bag on her shoulder, coat already on, clearly on her way out.“Just wanted to say goodnight.” She leaned against the doorframe like she had somewhere to be but wasn’t in a rush to get there.“Goodnight.” I leaned back. “How did the contractor call go?”“Better than expected. They pushed the timeline back two days but I negotiated it down to one.” She shrugged. “We’re fine.”“Good.”She should have left then. She didn’t. She shifted her bag and glanced at the bookshelf behind me like something had caught her attention.“Is that a vinyl player?”“It is.”“You actually use it?”“When the mood calls for it.”She smiled slowly. “I didn’t take you for a vinyl person.”“There’s a lo

Arielle’s POVFour months.Four months since I walked into Hale AI with my portfolio and my best blazer and a quiet prayer that I wouldn’t let nerves make me forget my own name. Four months of site assessments, material sourcing, contractor calls, design revisions and more coffee than my body has any business processing.Four whole months and two remaining.If someone had told me then that I’d still be standing — not just standing but thriving — I would have believed them about the job. I was always going to be good at the job.It was the other part I wasn’t so sure about.Dominic Hale in the same building, Three days a week, sometimes five. Dominic Hale who notices things without appearing to notice anything. Dominic Hale who stopped feeling like someone I needed to brace myself around.I deserve a raise just for that alone.The tension that used to follow me into every room he occupied started to loosen. The hyperawareness settled. We found a rhythm — professional enough for the

Arielle's POVWe dished the food together and headed to his bedroom to eat. A few bites in, I felt his left hand slip between my thighs, fingers trailing dangerously high.My fork froze mid-air. I couldn’t concentrate on eating anymore…couldn’t think about anything except his touch.By the time we
