In Love With The Hot Billionaire. ~Neither Of Us Moved Through The Door~
Chapter Ninety-SevenHe was breathing. I could feel that, the movement of his chest against my back, and the breathing was not steady. It had the specific ragged quality of something that had passed through the body too fast to be processed yet, the aftermath of movement that had been pure reflex and was now catching up with the rest of him.He did not let go.The grip was iron, both arms now, and I was pressed fully against him and neither of us was moving and the lake continued its mild indifferent glittering and somewhere behind us Noé's butterfly pursuit went briefly silent.Adrien turned me.His hands moved from my waist to my shoulders and he turned me to face him with a controlled force that was not rough and was not gentle and was entirely focused, and I looked up at his face and found something there that I had not seen before in quite this configuration. Not the careful cold. Not the managed distance. Something underneath all of that, raw and specific, the fury of someone wh
In Love With The Hot Billionaire. ~Bois De Boulogne~
CHAPTER NINETY-SIXCamille's POV~The Next Day~~Isabella had described it as breathing room."Everyone in this apartment is wound so tight," she had said at breakfast, with the particular directness of a woman who had known her brother long enough to say true things to his face without flinching. "A picnic. Fresh air. Noé can run. You two can stop circling each other like you're waiting for something to explode."Adrien had said nothing, which Isabella had interpreted as agreement, which it may or may not have been. By ten in the morning we were in the car.The Bois de Boulogne was already busy with the particular Saturday energy of Paris deciding collectively to be outside, families and joggers and couples and dogs moving through the green with the cheerful chaos of people who had been inside all week and were making up for it. Noé pressed his face to the window the entire drive and provided commentary on everything he saw with the enthusiasm of someone for whom the world continued
In Love With The Hot Billionaire. ~I Am Running Out Of What To Say~
Chapter Ninety-Five Adrien's POV When the man approached her I was already moving. I registered him before he had fully committed to the approach, read the intention in the angle of his body and the direction of his attention, and I was on the path before I had consciously decided to be. The anger that moved through me in those few seconds was clean and specific and not proportionate to the situation in any professional sense. I reached her and I tucked the strand of hair behind her ear and I looked at the man with the gray eyes and said nothing that required saying because the situation had already been communicated. I had handed her a bouquet of her favorite flowers and I had no idea why I did that. He apologized and left. I had told her to be careful because it was the appropriate thing to say and because it was a fraction of what I wanted to say and because the rest of it had no business existing on a public garden path. Then I walked away. I walked away with the delibera
In Love With The Hot Billionaire. ~What I Won't Say~
Chapter Ninety-FourAdrien's POV I am not a man who revisits things.I make decisions. I act on them. I move forward with the understanding that looking backward is a luxury that costs more than it returns, and I have never found the exchange worthwhile. This is not a personality flaw. It is a structural choice, made early and maintained consistently, and it has served me without exception for years.Except that I have been sitting at my desk for twenty minutes looking at a hospital report I have read four times without retaining a single line, which suggests that something about the current arrangement has stopped serving me in the way I intended.I put the report down.I think about Thursday.**************The school had been the beginning of whatever this is.I had known, going in, what it would require. A performance of family for a morning, for Noé's sake, the kind of thing I could manage with the same detachment I brought to any situation requiring me to operate outside my nat
In Love With The Hot Billionaire. FREYA'S POV
FREYA'S POV "Right there, yes, just like that."I froze in the doorway.The woman's voice was breathy and high pitched. She was on my bed. Her dark hair was spread across my pillow like she owned it. The red dress I did not recognize was pooled on the floor next to heels that probably cost more than my rent. Her lipstick was smeared across her mouth and down her neck.Kelvin was on top of her.His hands were in her hair. His mouth was on her throat. The sheets I had washed three days ago were tangled around their legs.He looked up.Our eyes met.He did not stop. Did not scramble away. Did not even look surprised. He just stared at me for a long second before slowly pulling back and sitting up on the edge of the bed."Freya." His voice was flat. Calm. Like I had just walked in on him watching television instead of screwing another woman in our bed.The woman turned her head to look at me. She did not cover herself. Did not grab for clothes. She just propped herself up on one elbow an
In Love With The Hot Billionaire. CHAPTER NINETY
The champagne in my glass costs more than most people make in a week but still I don't drink it. I'm too busy watching him. Adriano Salvatore stands across the ballroom like he owns it because he does actually. He owns this hotel, half the city, and probably the souls of everyone in this room. His tailored black suit fits him like a second skin, and when he laughs at something the senator says, I see the flash of white teeth that's graced a hundred magazine covers. Billionaire. Tech mogul. Real estate tycoon. Liar. What the glossy magazines don't mention is that he's also the Don of the Salvatore crime family. One of the Five Families that run the East Coast underworld. The man who could give me everything I need. The man whose mother killed my father. "You're staring," Sofia whispers beside me, her grip on my arm tightening. "Bella, maybe this is a bad idea" "It's the only idea." I hand her my untouched champagne and smooth down my red dress. The fabric clings to every curve

Chapter Thirty Six The words hurt because they were probably true. I tried myself not to feel emotional because I didn't want to feel it right now despite the fact I'm with Elodie."I'm not looking for love," I said quietly. "I just got divorced. I'm homeless and pregnant and broken. I'm not think

Chapter Thirty FiveCamille's POVThe taxi drove through Paris streets I barely registered, my mind was stuck in a loop of the past hour.The way Adrien's fingers had brushed mine. The intensity in his gray eyes behind those glasses. The careful way he'd touched my stomach, listening to the baby's
