***

I excused myself and head out of the room.

I know Lilah saw it on my face.

I couldn't tell her.

Not when she has Liam to worry about.

I had planned to stay at the hospital, to be sure Liam's okay, to support as much as I can.

Unfortunately, some asshole decided to the plan the day for me differently.

Steve sent a text that seemed like a way-out-of-line grim joke.

Someone snuck into the construction site and shot one of the workers in broad daylight. That's all the text says.

  • Her Return, His Regret    171 A horny mess

    ***~~Jenaya~~***I let that sit for a second. “Dinner?” I repeat, eye brows raised.He doesn't turn, just nods and head straight to the door.I stared at the back of his head, confused.The things this man does and says, and it's usually with a straight face like it's the most normal thing to do.Who the hell eats with their ‘special handy man?’I cross my arms, not bothering to button my shirt.He returns with a plastic nylon and lift it up with a faint smile. “Pizza,” then he walks over to the table and ease it down.“I'm eating with you,” I blurt out, eyes burning holes in his back.He turns his head. “Why?” he mused. “You're not hungry?”I stomp a foot. “You can't buy me with food. Besides the exclusivity terms does not include feeding each other,”I watch his lips twitch. “I love to buy my woman food, you should expect that often.”My fist balls. “I'm not your woman, Knox. It's just sex,”He grins before I can say more, dragging a hand through his hair. “Come and have a bite. I

  • Her Return, His Regret    170 Nothing's like her

    ***~~Knox~~***The first swipe of my tongue makes her thighs tremble.I don't ease in.Not when she's spread like this for me.I rub my face against her, wild, feral, then drink her in. Tongue flicking, circling, devouring. “Oh, fuck, Knox.”She squirms, but I grip her thighs and pull her in. I alternate between gentle licks and firm pressure, finding a rhythm that drives her wild.Her hips starts moving on their own, aching into my face, seeking for more.My tongue moves faster now— back and forth, then it dips into her core, moving in slow, deliberate strokes, exploring every inch of her.“There,” she gasps, her voice breaking. “Right there, Knox.”I slide two fingers into her, pumping in and out in time with the movements of my mouth.Then I curl my fingers. Just the right angle. Her whole body jolts.“Knox!” she screams my name, trembling under me.I can feel the tension building within her. I keep going. Her hips starts to stutter. Breath coming fast.“I'm close,” she choke ou

    ***~~Jenaya~~***I shoot him a sideways look. “What are you doing here?”His lips twitch and he straightens. “Have you forgotten so soon? We have a deal, Jenaya.”“That doesn't include showing up at my house uninvited,” I quip back.His eyes stays locked on mine, and then he starts inching closer.We're a breath apart now, and I didn't even try to push him off.He leans in, his mouth to my ear. “Who knows, Naya. I might just be horny.”My breath hitched.Eyes wide like saucers.He pulls away a bit, eyes on me. And maybe he sees the tension eating at me.He steps back and smirks. “You left your heel at my house. And you have what's mine you pretty thief.”Oh right.His flip flops.I shrug. “I didn't steal it. I only borrowed it,”He smiles. “Is that right?” he murmurs, stepping closer.“Of course. I wouldn't leave all the diamonds in your room for a mere flip flops.”His smile spreads and then he extends a bag I hadn't seen earlier.I take it. “Thank you,” I say pointing. “Come in fo

  • Her Return, His Regret    168 Breathing between regret

    ***~~Jenaya~~***It's been days and I've immersed myself back to work, hoping to get the other night out of my head.But no.I keep thinking about it.Every touch. Every thrust. His kisses.And I hate that despite my restraint, I still want him again.Today. Tomorrow. And maybe for the next six months.He pried me open to a sizzling orbit that sank deep into me and now I don't want to let go.“Auntie Naya,” Liam's voice breaks into my wild thoughts.He blinks when I turn to face him. “What's wrong Auntie Naya?” he asks with a tilt of his head.I smile. “Nothing. I was just…thinking,”“You look sad,” he observes.I touch my cheeks dramatically. “Sad? No. It's just work,” I try to coax him. “Do you need help with anything?”He shakes his head. “No. Are you leaving?” His gaze drops to my already packed bag.“Yes, work's over.”“I'll miss you,” he says with a pout.My smile spreads and I crunch to his level, squishing his cheeks. “I'll miss you more my boy.”He gives me a sad look but

  • Her Return, His Regret    167 Life is fickle

    ***~~Meghan~~***He strides fast and no matter how hard I try to catch up, I couldn't.And not on a pointy heels.The longer I walked, the more the fire in my chest blooms.“Mr. Steele,” I call but he doesn't slow down.My jaw locks.Fingers fisting on the card.Iris stands as she sees him coming, her eyes darting between us.Probably wondering what the hell is going on.He doesn't acknowledge her, just walk straight to his office, pull the door.I run to catch up, slipping in before he'd close it.He turns to face me. “I don't remember asking you over Miss Smith.”My chest rises and falls. “You didn't. But don't you think you owe me an explanation?” He stares at me and I could've sworn I saw his lips twitch. “What explanation?”I grit my teeth. “You called my idea trash and yet you presented it to the board,”“Steele’s group is mine. What I do shouldn't be any of your business,”Bullshit. I yell inwardly.This man ticks me off so bad.“That was my idea. It's my business. You didn'

    ***~~Meghan~~***I stirred.Feeling my back ache.My eyes hurts.The room is bright as Sunlight filters through the window.I sit up fully, blinking awake.Folders are open on the table. My laptop too. I had slept off while working.I reach for my phone and it's 7AM.Shit. Shit. Shit.This folder needs to get to Hunter's desk on or before 8AM.I rise to my feet, slam my laptop shut and stride downstairs to check on Janet.But the couch is empty.She had insisted on staying there and now it only makes sense because she wants to sneak out.I run my temples and dial her number.It rings out but no response.After two more trials, I gave up.I wasn't bluffing when I said my mother was a real pick me.I whirl and start up the stairs hastily, taking it two at a time.I take my bath fast and run out of the bathroom with a towel clinging to my skin, heart hammering as I check the time on my phone.7:20AM.Fuck.The drive to Steele’s group is about half and hour.An about 3 minutes walk into
