Twenty minutes later, Peters arrived to collect Blair.

“You know this isn’t necessary. I could just call down and make sure Dan is working today. Once I know the coast is clear, make a run for the apartment and clear everything out.” Blair felt uncomfortable standing in the living area of Roman’s apartment, in yesterday’s clothes and no underwear under the watchful eyes of Roman’s head of security. There was no way she would wear dirty underwear, and she definitely wouldn’t wear wet underwear if she washed them.

Roman pulled on his suit jacket. “I’m not having you go there alone, Blair. End of discussion.”

Arrogant ass. But it gave her a secret little thrill that he cared about it, Blair thought before saying aloud. “Dan has never hurt me, well physically, at least. I’m perfectly safe.”

Roman finished with his jacket and walked over to her. He obviously didn’t care that Peters was watching because he leaned down and took her mouth in a hungry demand. Shocking Blair by the intense ki

  • In Bed With Her Shithead Boss   Chapter One Hundred-Fifty-One

    Ten Weeks LaterSutton stood in the hospital corridor, her hands shaking slightly as she buttoned the last snap on Miles’ going-home onesie. It was soft blue with tiny stars printed across the chest. She didn’t know why she was so nervous; she had dressed him so many times. Today she had more people watching her because today was the day… it had finally come. She was overjoyed that finally they were taking their son home.Miles squirmed a little, his fists pumping the air, his eyes fluttering open for a second before drifting shut again. His face was rounder now. Healthier. He wasn’t the fragile little thing he’d been the night she almost lost him. He was still tiny. But so much stronger. It was amazing to think that he should have only been born around now, but instead, he was almost twelve weeks old.He was now strong enough to come home, and she was more than ready to have him there. The last two and a half months had been draining on her, not being able to check on her son at nigh

    Luca helped her out of the car later that afternoon. His hand steady at her lower back as they made their way up the front steps. He could see she was still tired and clearly still in pain. The doctor had told them Sutton could be in pain for at least another month—not only from giving birth to Miles but also from her fall.When they got inside, Sutton went straight to the room they were going to use for Miles when he got home. He watched her turn on the light and stand in the middle of the room looking around.He could feel her pain from here. Every day she left the hospital without Miles was heartbreaking for her and him. More so because her pain was there for all to see.“We’ll bring him home soon,” Luca said beside her, putting his arm around her waist. “We’re so close.”Sutton nodded and leaned into him for a second before she turned away and headed toward the kitchen. She needed water. Maybe a sandwich. But she wouldn’t cry.She was halfway through filling a glass when she caugh

    Luca didn’t remember much of the drive to Lenox Hill. He was still wound up tight after his face-to-face with Nicole. He just hoped he had scared her enough to make her back off.He would never let his guard down until she was in jail or gone from the US for good.There would never be forgiveness. The damage she’d tried to do… to Sutton, to Cyber10, to Miles—if she’d gotten into the NICU, the consequences would’ve been unimaginable. He hadn’t even let himself consider what might’ve happened if she’d made it past security, if she’d found a way into the NICU. Just the thought made his chest tighten enough to hurt.But she hadn’t.His legal team had tipped off her lawyers about his intention to press formal charges. He just hoped she’d want to save her skin enough to bolt. Orange was not a good color on Nicole.His phone buzzed just as he was pulling into the parking structure under the hospital.It was an unknown number, but it was the call he had been waiting for.Luca swiped the call

    Luca stood behind his desk at Cyber10 the next morning, hating the fact he had to leave Sutton. But she had been heading to the hospital to be with Miles, and Luca had to make sure she had protection every step of the way. There was no way he was going to take any chances with her life.His gaze had been locked on the skyline for over ten minutes, not reading a single line of the reports Jake had forwarded him. He really didn’t want to be here. He wanted to be with Sutton and Miles. He’d taken so much time off since Sutton’s fall. But soon they would be together.The only shadow he could see now was Nicole—and he had no idea how to handle her. If he didn’t do something, she would always be a threat, and he couldn’t see Sutton being happy living under protection all the time.He hadn’t told Sutton about the ongoing text messages and voicemails from Nicole. She hadn’t been stupid enough to turn up here. But she hadn’t stopped since his press conference.He knew Sutton didn’t want secrets

    Sutton hadn’t realized how draining it was going to be leaving Miles at the hospital. She felt empty. She was so glad she had Luca. She was so tired.Her body still ached from the hospital stay, her muscles weak from the enforced bed rest on top of everything else, but her heart was raw from everything that had happened to Miles. Now she had this new worry about Nicole getting near their son. The crazy bitch. She didn’t know what would make her stop unless she went to jail.Luca opened the doors to his apartment… Their apartment. She could hear noise and people talking. Keira had said she would drop off all Sutton’s stuff with Blair and Roman.But the thing that caught her attention was how beautiful the penthouse was. It was warm and soaked in golden sunset light from the floor-length windows. It wasn’t all black and steel like she had sort of expected. No… it was all warm colors, wood, and cozy. The colors reminded her of her place in Europe. Had he prepared this place to make her h

    Sutton cried the moment she stepped out of the NICU. She was crying because she was leaving Miles in the hospital while she went home. She didn’t care that it was only temporary. Her arms felt wrong without him in them. Even though she hadn’t been with him all night, it still felt wrong somehow.She knew he was safe and well fed. Monitored around the clock, supported by more machines and sensors and trained professionals. The NICU nurses knew her by name. They adored Miles.And yet—it still felt like she was walking away from her heart.She pressed one hand to her chest as she returned to her room to gather the last of her things. Luca had left her a few minutes ago to talk to Antonio, who was seeing their father. Sutton had already been in to see Nick.A nurse smiled gently, not asking why she was crying. They always knew.“You’ll be back tomorrow,” the nurse said softly, folding Sutton’s discharge papers into a folder with the hospital logo.“I know,” Sutton whispered. “I just… I do
