  • Nora and Her Unexpected Billionaire    Meetings

    Several weeks had passed since the graduation celebration. In that time, Nora had become a regular part of Arlo's nuclear family. She had spent afternoons with his mother, gone shopping with her, and even ended up with a pair of matching shoes neither of them had actually needed. She had also visited Celeste severally and spent time with her new baby. Even the family gatherings that once would have made her feel like an outsider had started to feel natural. On a Tuesday afternoon, Arlo was at work. It had been a particularly busy day at Reeves Corp. The company had recently announced plans to fully integrate artificial intelligence into its architecture and real estate operations, and the announcement had attracted considerable interest from technology companies and investors eager to pitch their systems. Arlo had five presentations scheduled for the day. Four had already come and gone. The fifth was scheduled for late afternoon. Arlo sat at the head of the conference table,

  • Nora and Her Unexpected Billionaire    To Nora Ellison

    Louise stood frozen, the clean shirt trembling slightly in her fingers. Her eyes darted over Nora’s upper body under the bright bathroom lights, completely horrified. “Nora...” Louise whispered, her voice shaking as she reached out a hand. “My God... what happened to you?” Nora raised a brow, genuinely unsure which part Louise was talking about. “What do you mean?” “You're covered in bruises,” Louise said, her eyes wide with worry. “And I see a scar running down your back. Not to mention the plaster peeling off your hands.” Nora let out a small breath. “Oh. Uh, the scar is from an accident I had as a kid. Nothing recent.” Louise nodded slowly, but her gaze didn't shift. She clearly needed more answers. “The plasters are from a cut I got yesterday,” Nora added quietly, looking down at her hands. “It's really nothing serious.” Then, silence stretched between them. The elephant in the room was staring right back at them. The purple marks were impossible to hide. Nora sucked in

  • Nora and Her Unexpected Billionaire    Louise x Nora

    Nora squatted down in the closet to look through the clothes again, one hand moving hangers aside as she searched for something Arlo could wear. Behind her, Arlo remained on the floor with the clothes she had just handed him, watching her with an amused expression. “You don't have to go,” he said. Nora paused and glanced over her shoulder. For a second, she considered it. Then she shook her head. “I'll go.” “You sure?” She nodded as she stood. “Probably after work. We can go together.” Arlo got to his feet and stepped closer. Before she could say anything else, he leaned down and kissed her. The kiss was slow at first, but it didn't stay that way for long. His mouth moved from hers to her jaw, then lower, tracing the side of her neck. Nora let out a small breath before placing both hands against his chest and pushing him back. “Arlo.” He looked at her “I need to get dressed.” He gave her an exaggeratedly disappointed look. “Come on.” She laughed. “Go.”

    “They died in an accident? All three of them?”“Yes,” his father sighed heavily through the line. “Anyway, that’s all in the past now. Bring her over. Let’s just settle this.”“Okay,” Arlo muttered flatly and ended the call.He slid the phone into his pocket and walked back into the bedroom. The second he stepped inside, he saw Nora was already awake. She was sitting up, her hair disheveled and her eyes visibly puffy.“Good morning,” Arlo said softly.Nora tried to reply, but her voice was hoarse.“Morning.”She tried getting up, but the minute her feet touched the ground, her legs gave out. She collapsed onto the floor.She tried again, carefully placing both feet on the floor and pushing herself upright.Her knees trembled.“What the fuck?” she muttered.She looked down at herself in disbelief. Arlo laughed when he saw her.“Come here.”Nora immediately shot a glare at him. Amused, Arlo stepped forward and scooped her up into his arms.“I can walk,” Nora whined softly, squirming aga

  • Nora and Her Unexpected Billionaire    The next morning

    Nora lay completely dazed against the pillows, her chest still heaving as her breathing slowly returned to normal.The bedroom was thick, heavy, and warm. Arlo propped himself up beside her, his hazel eyes focused on her face.Nora caught his relentless gaze and let out a soft, tired chuckle. "What?"Arlo didn't answer with words right away. Instead, he leaned down, burying his face in the crook of her neck before lazily resting his head right against her chest."I can't stop staring at you," he murmured, his warm breath on her skin. "I wish I could see you like this all the time."The moment Arlo propped himself up again to look down at her, Nora immediately covered her face with her hands, frantically pulling the white covers right over her head.Before she could finish, Arlo caught the edge of the sheet, letting out a low chuckle. "What?"Nora didn't talk. She slowly parted her fingers around her eyes, peering up at him from behind her hands.Arlo leaned closer, his face just inche

  • Nora and Her Unexpected Billionaire    First night

    Arlo carried her through the threshold, kicking the door shut behind them. He reached down, his fingers finishing the unzipping of her dress with one smooth stroke. The Valentino silk slid down her legs, falling into a dark heap on the floorboards. Arlo stood up for a brief second, stripping off his shirt and trousers until they were both semi-naked in the quiet dark.He reached beneath her back, his fingers carefully unbuckling the clasp of her bra as he lay her gently on the bed. When it fell away, Arlo paused, his eyes consuming her under the faint night light. He leaned down, his lips kissing her all over, slowly savoring every single inch of her skin as he moved down her neck, past her collarbones, all the way to the smooth slope of her stomach.When his hand reached the edge of her panties, he slowly used his teeth to catch the satin fabric, pulling it down her thighs until she was entirely bare beneath him. He slid his palm up the inside of her thigh, his fingers gently brush
