Erin's POV

“I can’t believe this,” Rowan slammed the door as he barreled into the house.

I bit my bottom lip to stifle a smirk.

The only time Rowan ever got this worked up is because of Azure, which means my little intel drop was successful, and Azure earned some brownie points in my book.

The sound of his briefcase smacking against the wall just outside the kitchen had me painting on a fitting expression, “What’s going on?” I called out as he entered the kitchen.

Rowan’s face was flushed red with fury, “Azure Blackwood is what’s going on,” he snarled. “Do you remember that deal I was telling you about this morning?”

He leans down, elbows on the granite, and presses his forehead to the countertop.

“Vaguely,” I glanced up from the book I was pretending to read. “I’m assuming it didn’t go well?”

“Didn’t go well is an understatement,” he spat, slamming his fist against the counter. “That fucker managed to swoop in with a ten-year contract instead of the five-year contract I was offering,

  • His Baby, My Revenge   Chapter 78

    Erin's POVMy fingers refused to stop fluttering, tapping an uneven tempo against my thigh.Finn has been silent, allowing me to sit here with my thoughts for the last ten minutes.“I don’t know if I can pretend today,” I whispered, watching my fingers strum. “How am I supposed to step foot in that room knowing that he and Ophelia got into an accident together? If I ignore the elephant in the room, it’s going to be obvious, but if I question it….” A shaky exhale bleeds from my lips. “I don’t think I’ll be able to hold it together.”“Erin,” Finn reached across the space between our seats, squeezing my hand. “Whatever you end up doing after you walk through those doors does not change a thing. If you walk in there and can’t fake it, we’re still going to make sure he pays for what he’s done to you.”My belly fluttered with a kick, startling me back into my reality. I’m pregnant with Azure’s baby. I have two men who continuously reassure me that they are interested in doing this thing we

  • His Baby, My Revenge   Chapter 77

    Erin's POVThe phone went to voicemail again, but no message was left. Not even two seconds later, the same number called me back, making four calls in a row.“Hello?” I barked; annoyance laced in my tone. I quickly pressed the phone to my ear, stepping just outside of the viewing room. I had been trying to maintain my professionality, but whomever this is, seems to want to throw a wrench in my plans.“Am I speaking to Mrs. Erin Connolley?” a deep, male voice questioned.“Yes, this is she.”“My name is officer Cleric. We’ve been trying to reach you because your husband was involved in an accident this morning and has been taken to Portland General hospital,” the man explained.Rowan was involved in an accident… Here in Portland? He was supposed to be on his business trip for another day…“Is he… okay?” I glanced over my shoulder at the door, wondering how much longer I had before Finn and Mr. Nitrile stepped out here.“Mr. Connolley is being taken into surgery for a lacerated spleen.

    Finn's POV‘Is she watching?’ Azure’s voice fills my head, and I have to fight the urge to roll my eyes.‘No, she’s having a tea party with Mr. Nitrile,’ I snarked. ‘She hasn’t taken her eyes off of you or your ass.’ I probably should have left that tid bit of information out, but it was clear she held the same appreciation for Azure’s ass that I did. And that outfit…. I may or may not have persuaded him to test the pants today for a little bonus to the show.Not that he needed it. Azure oozed confidence, and once he begins moving; That’s going to be on full display. Even Rowan wouldn’t be able to tear his eyes away from what Azure can do.‘Thank you, as always, for your pep talks,’ Azure sounds cocky, even while thanking me. ‘I’ll make sure to give you a little show too, baby.’ This time, I couldn’t fight it. My eyes rolled so hard, I swore they might get stuck.‘You know he’s always like that,’ Nash sighs. ‘At this point, I don’t think he or Nero will ever change.’ His words hold

    Erin's POVFinn escorted us to another room with floor to ceiling windows as well as various monitors showing different areas of the arena.My curiosity got the best of me, and I walked straight up to the large windows, looking down at a massive space designed to look like a forest. Large, fake trees and shrubs were scattered around, as well as rocks, a cave, and a few trenches.“This is an impressive set up, Mr. Gray,” Mr. Nitrile chirped, glancing around the space with curious eyes, “And Mr. Blackwood does all of his own testing?”“Yes,” Finn’s eyes lit up, and it was clear how much pride he felt for Azure and their accomplishments. “Azure has always made it his top priority to be involved in every aspect of this business. His goal is to create groundbreaking products that he personally knows will work in battle.”“Are you suggesting that he will be shot,” Mr. Nitrile’s eyes widened. “While down there?”A pit of anxiety tangled up in my stomach as I stared down at the empty arena. W

    Erin's POV“You’re wearing something new on your lips,” Finn’s green eyes dip to my mouth before lifting to my eyes.“You’re observant,” I can’t fight the smile that pulls on my lips. As I was doing my makeup, I pickup up my tinted gloss but just as I was raising the wand to my lips, I switched to a plain, cocoa scented balm.“Didn’t want to leave any evidence behind?” he pecks my lips again with a smile.My cheeks heated immediately. That was exactly the reason I’d made the change.“I was simply trying to be frugal and didn’t think you’d be interested in having pink lips.”Finn’s face falls in the crook of my neck, “Are you suggesting that I have dry lips?”The elevator began to slow, and Finn immediately pulled away, moving just far enough away that he looked professional as the doors slid open.“Right this way, Erin,” Finn didn’t use my last name again, and I was grateful. The thought of being tied to Rowan now makes me feel sick to my stomach. The sooner I drop his last name, the

    Erin's POV“Erin,” Andrea hisses, and I have to pull the phone away from my ear. “How?!”That was a really great question. How the hell am I supposed to explain my exclusive invitation to Blackwood INC without admitting that I’m sleeping with the CEO and CFO.“I must have caught Mr. Blackwood in a good mood yesterday,” I hoped the tone of my voice didn’t betray me. “He responded to my inquiry almost immediately.”I hated being a good liar. While it served me right now, it still felt incredibly wrong, especially to Andrea.“You do understand how difficult it is to get in touch with the Azure Blackwood, correct?” I imagine her pacing the length of her office with the end of her pen clicking against her teeth. “I know you remember that man causing me a full mental breakdown,” she growled.Only a fraction of a second later did that incessan
