I Won Him At A Billionaire Auction Threat
Allan walked out of Mr. Torino’s office feeling a hundred pounds lighter. The deal was done and all that was left was putting their signatures on the contract.Mr. Torino had called for him immediately after they arrived at the hotel. Allan didn’t have to wonder what it was about. He had made himself clear at brunch that he was going to hand over the company to him. So it didn’t surprise him when Mr. Torino asked Allan to settle the bank loan which had grown considerably in the last two months.Not that he cared, but Allan asked if he and his children had another source of income. Leaving Mr. Torino destitute would not go over well with Riana.Anthony and Antonia had trust funds and Mr. Torino had his savings, which he would keep him comfortable for the rest of his life. With that out of the way, Allan called his lawyer to draw up the necessary paper work then left Mr. Torino to join Riana in their suite.They had three hours till dinner
I Won Him At A Billionaire Auction Feeling Like A Goddess
Riana kept the water running as she tried to throw up quietly. She thought she’d escaped it when she didn’t get sick that morning.Why call it morning sickness if it hit you any time of the day?There was a knock on the door followed by a loud, “Signorina Albury, are you fine?” Guliana, her stylist and makeup artist for the night sounded worried.Before she could respond, she felt something come up. She retched what looked like water and the knock on the door grew to a banging.“Signorina, I should call the Signore, yes?”“No!” Riana yelled out. She flushed the toilet and lowered the cover before she sat on it. At least she didn’t feel drained and weak like when she was on the yacht.She placed her hand over her belly. “Why are you doing this to me? I’m housing you inside me for nine months.”“Signorina?”Rian
I Won Him At A Billionaire Auction Not So Harmless
“What?” Allan asked taking a sip of his drink before looking over his shoulder. His eyes bulged out and he began coughing. Riana asked for a glass of water from the bartender. She handed it to Allan who was still looking at her like she’d walked in naked—well, she was a little exposed. But not naked. He took a few gulps, his eyes still moving over her. “Fuck, Riana!” She took the glass away from him and placed it on the counter. “Language, Allan.” “Signorina Albury!” The man standing with them exclaimed like she wasn’t what he expected. Riana almost asked ‘who else do you think I am’ instead she said, “Si, Signore, but you have me at a disadvantage. I don’t know who you are.” He chuckled and turned to Allan. “Naïve and sweet, huh?” He shook his head and turned back to her, holding out his hand. “Dante Vittorio, Sinclair’s lawyer—here in Italy at least.” Riana placed her hand in his and smiled at him. “I should have recognized your voice. You are always on the phone with Allan. I
I Won Him At A Billionaire Auction In His Arms
After the tense dinner the night before, Riana was looking forward to a day of relaxing with Allan—and Von.She still didn’t like having a bodyguard, a third wheel, but Allan was adamant about Von following them around. She only wished Von wouldn’t be so obvious and that he would blend in with the crowd like all the other bodyguards had done in the other cities.She wanted to keep up the delusion that she and Allan were on their honeymoon, and no one went on their honeymoon with a third person.She was glad, finally, when she got her wish. The moment they stepped out of the hotel, Von was nowhere to be seen. She looked around, searching for him, and spotted him a few feet away. He was dressed in a white linen shirt, blue jeans, and a white, woven hat—unlike the black suit he had on the night before. He looked like a tourist, completely blending in with the crowd.Riana’s attention was pulled back to Allan when he tugged her h
I Won Him At A Billionaire Auction Tension
“What?” Riana looked from him to Dante as she pulled the dress to cover her leg. It stayed put for a while before it fluidly slipped off her leg like water against marble. Oh damn! Mr. Torino chuckled, and Dante groaned, his eyes riveted on her leg. Allan cursed, quickly taking the seat next to her teasing leg and placing the napkin from the table to cover her thigh. She looked at him with a quirked brow before she smiled that ‘oh, not so innocent’ teasing smile and said, “Oops!” “Yeah right, little witch!” Dante took the seat next to him laughing. “Remind me to send Guliana a thank you gift basket.” “Remind me to send Guliana a pink slip,” Allan grumbled. Riana giggled and cupped his cheek in her hand. “No, you won’t. She was going for a specific reaction from you, and I think she accomplished it. Her masterpiece was a success.” Allan leaned in close and whispered, “Her master piece is about to be
I Won Him At A Billionaire Auction Confession
Allan leaned against the doorframe and watched Riana as she cooked in their hotel kitchen. She was humming and swaying to a tune he recognized. It was the same one the gondolier sang.Being with her in the gondola, made him feel…he wasn’t sure the emotion had a name because he’d never felt it before. All he knew was it was pure magic.It put a kink in his plans when she fell asleep but he understood. She was still feeling sick. Carrying her weightless body back to the hotel did make him worry, though…just until she woke up hungry and she devoured a plate of chicken saltimbocca and an entire pizza. He was glad she was getting her appetite back.He continued to watch her, and eventually joined in, as she spun on her heels, curtsied, and did a few steps of the waltz and began humming another tune, reminding him of their dinner with Mr. Torino.He had loved holding her in his arms as they moved to the gentle music, lost in their own
I Won Him At A Billionaire Auction Go Pack
The setting was perfect, romantic even, if he had any intention of admit to his feelings and confess them as she had just done. He knew she had fallen for him and the usual protocol for this kind of complication was…He let go of her and stepped away. “I’m going to the upper deck. You should go pack.”He heard her quick intake of breath as more tears spilled. “Go pack,” she whispered in a deadpan voice. “I tell you I love you and you respond with ‘go pack’?”Allan remained silent. There was nothing he could say that would salvage this moment. Anything that came out of his mouth would only make things worse.He turned around to leave. He had gotten as far as the railing before he felt something hit his back, making him arch forward in pain with a hiss. Allan looked down at the offensive object and cursed loudly. “My iPad! Of all the stuff in this room you choose my iPad? I have work on it!”She chortled bitterly throwing her hands up. “Of course, the only thing you love—your damn work!
I Won Him At A Billionaire Auction Regret
Riana shoved her things into the suitcase. She’d thought about leaving everything he’d bought her, but decided against it. When, not if, he decided to get another bedmate to keep him company, there was no way she was going to let her wear the stuff Allan had bought for her. Each piece held a wonderful memory for her. And despite Allan being such a bastard, she was going to treasure each and every memory and someday tell it to their child.Riana rested her hand on her belly and permitted herself two minutes to cry. She fell onto the bed and sobbed for the end of a love affair, for the unrequited love, for the future that would never be, and for the child who may never have an active father in its life.When she was done, she sat up, wiped the tears away and promised herself to never ever shed another tear for Allan Sinclair.She wrote Allan a goodbye note and placed it in the case that once held a diamond pendant—which was now in one of the six
