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 TWO: WHAT LUCAS AGREES TO LUCAS'S POVDeclan has been talking for three minutes and I already know where this is going.I know because I know Declan, and I know that face he makes when he thinks he's found something clever and he's building to reveal the way bad directors build to a twist, letting it breathe a little too long, enjoying himself too much. I let him enjoy himself. I reach for the bottle and top up my glass and wait.We're six tonight. The private room at the back of Nero's, the one you have to know someone to book, dark wood and low lighting and a door that closes properly. Felix is across from me. Kwame and the two Australians Rhys, who I like, and Brett, who I tolerate are down the other end. We've been here since nine. It's past midnight now and jackets are off and ties are loose and we're all in the particular state of a long good evening where everything is slightly funnier than it would be sober."You know Seraphina Noire?" Declan says."Should I?""BBC dr
In Love With The Hot Billionaire. What Vivian Wants
VIVIAN'S POVI picked up some warm champagne. Not terribly warm, not ruined, but enough that I can taste the laziness of whoever poured it. I set the glass down on Lucas's kitchen counter without drinking from it again and watch him move around the island like he owns it which he does, technically, his name is on the lease, though I'm not sure his father doesn't own the building entirely. These are the kinds of things you grow up knowing when your father and Thaddeus Crowne have been best friends for thirty years.I know a lot of things about the Crowne family.That's rather the point."You're not drinking," Lucas says, not looking at me. He's opening a second bottle, the good one this time, the one he keeps at the back of the wine fridge behind the bottles he opens for guests he doesn't care about."The first one was warm."He looks up then. The corner of his mouth moves. "You could've said something.""I just did."He pours two glasses of the good one and slides mine across the marb
