The soft light of dawn filtered through the curtains Tiffany stirred due to the sunlight.

She shifted slightly under the blanket, her eyes fluttering open. As she moved, she felt warmth beside her and for a moment, she froze feeling the steady breathing blending with the quiet stillness of the morning.

As she turned she found Kai, lying on his side, his face inches from hers. His usually sharp, commanding features were softened in sleep, his dark lashes, a faint shadows on his cheeks. His breathing was slow, his chest rising and falling in a steady rhythm

Tiffany felt her heart ache at the sight of him like this so deeply human. Her second favourite look. She didn’t move. Instead, she watched him, her gaze tracing every line and curve of his face.

He looked so different from the man the world saw as she remembered the news he was just Kai. Her Kai. And in that moment, he seemed so at peace that she didn’t dare disturb him.

    The hospital room was eerily quiet, with only the faint, rhythmic beeping of the machines to remind Kai that life was still hanging on. The sterile air smelled faintly of disinfectant, but none of it mattered to him. His hand rested on the edge of his father’s bed, his fingers brushing lightly against the coarse blanket. On the outside, Kai’s face was unreadable, calm as still water. But inside, waves of anguish and frustration churned, threatening to pull him under.His father lay there, unmoving, his chest rising and falling with shallow breaths. The sight struck a deep ache in Kai’s heart—a mixture of helplessness and longing for a miracle. He refused to show it, though. Not here. Not now.The soft creak of the door broke the silence, and Kai’s dark eyes flicked over to the figure entering. Peter stepped in hesitantly, his face etched with worry and something else—fear, maybe. "Mr. Winson," he said softly, his voice careful, like he didn’t want to disturb the fr

  • ONLY YOU, NO CONTRACTS.   TENSED RELIEF

    Tiffany’s heart raced as Kai’s touch grew more urgent, his hands moving over her with a kind of restless need. She could feel the pressure building, a tension that mirrored the storm of thoughts swirling in her mind her mother and Noami only a few rooms away, the need to stay quiet gnawing at her. But Kai wasn’t helping. His touch, his gaze, were relentless. His fingers tangled in her hair, pulling her head back just enough to expose the tender curve of her neck, and she inhaled sharply, his breath warm against her skin. The way he held her, firm and possessive, sent a shiver down her spine. Tiffany squeezed her eyes shut, but the way he moved against her, the steady rhythm that had her body arching for more, made it impossible to ignore. Her pulse quickened, a rush of heat curling in her stomach. His hands slid over her, gripping her hips as he pulled her closer. His lips brushed the sensitive spot behind her ear, a whispe

  • ONLY YOU, NO CONTRACTS.   IT'S A FAIR GAME

    Tiffany as she stepped back into the room. The sunlight had shifted. She paused in the doorway, catching sight of Kai sitting in the armchair by the window, his phone pressed to his ear. His expression was focused, his free hand resting on the arm of the chair as he listened intently to Peter on the other end of the line."I’ll take the meeting with Auden tomorrow morning, but push the board review to Thursday. I need to make time for Nolan’s doctors this evening." There was a pause as he listened, his fingers tapping lightly against the chair’s arm. "No, I don’t care about the press conference. Let them speculate for now. I have more important things to handle."Tiffany smiled softly to herself, watching him. Even in the middle of chaos, Kai carried himself with that unshakable air of control. He looked so much hotter, well, not as hot as their time this morning.She moved quietly across the room, her footsteps muffled by the plush carpet, until she was standing in front of him. Kai

    "Kai!" Tiffany called out, her voice trembling. He stopped in his tracks, pausing to take a deep breath before turning to look at her. Her wide eyes were brimming with fear, her chest rising and falling rapidly as though the air itself was too heavy to breathe.Kai released Kate’s arm, his jaw tightening as he turned away without a word. He walked back to Tiffany, took her hands in his, and guided her out of the room. The sound of their footsteps echoed, leaving Amelia frozen in shock, her mouth slightly open as though trying to form words that never came.Barely a minute later, a man burst into the room, panting as though he had run a marathon. "Ma’am, the police are searching for you," he said between gasps.Kate’s head snapped up. "What?" she asked, her voice sharp but tinged with panic.Tiffany’s worried eyes darted to Kai’s face. He was calm, too calm, as though he had expected this all along.The man glanced nervously at Kai and Tiffany, his words faltering under their gaze. "Th

    "Okay, spill it," Noami said firmly but gently. "What’s going on? And don’t even think about leaving anything out."Tiffany’s lips quivered as she tried to speak. Finally, the words tumbled out. "Noami... I think Kai’s involved in something bad. Really bad."Noami’s expression tightened. "What do you mean? What did he do?"Tiffany’s voice cracked as she whispered, "Kate got arrested. She’s the one who hurt his mom, and Kai... he knew. He knew all along." Her voice dropped lower. "Even Conrad..."Noami’s face paled. "Tiff, are you safe? Do you feel safe with him?"Tiffany’s shoulders shook as tears finally spilled over. "I don’t know," she choked out. "I want to believe I am, but... everything’s falling apart. I don’t know who to trust."Noami reached out, gripping Tiffany’s hands tightly. "Listen to me. We’ll figure this out. You’re not alone. I’m here, okay? No matter what."The Next Morning.

  • ONLY YOU, NO CONTRACTS.   THE BIRTHDAY DREAM

    A sleek black car rolled to a gentle stop in front of the boutique, its engine quieting to a soft purr, like a contented whisper. The door opened with an elegant ease, and Tiffany stepped out, her presence commanding yet ethereal. She looked like she had just walked out of a dream, her skin glowing against the soft morning light. Her outfit was something out of a fashion editorial—a three-piece tailored suit in pearlescent white that seemed to shimmer with every subtle movement. The corset-style vest hugged her figure flawlessly, its sculpted design cinching her waist before flaring slightly at the hips. Each satin-covered button gleamed with understated elegance, catching the sunlight like tiny stars.Around her neck rested the necklace. The one Kai had given her. Two delicate chains of silver and diamonds lay against her collarbone—one a choker, snug and bold, while the other draped longer, cascading down her chest like a graceful line of starlight.Her high-waisted trousers were a

    "Thank you so much, girls. I loved it. Noami... are you coming home tonight?" Noami turned, surprised etched her face. "What? No, I'm going to see Daniel." Tiffany nodded. "Ah? Daniel? Alright." She said with a smile. Although, she wanted to celebrate more for her birthday. She couldn't bother their plans. She had Kai after all. As she stepped out of the boutique, there he was. The perfect one. She spotted him just across the street Kai, tall and poised, his frame leaning against the car parked. His coat flared gently in the breeze, hands tucked into the pockets, but his eyes were locked onto her like a man possessed.Tiffany didn’t think. Her feet moved, and she ran towards him. The world blurred around her. Her heels struck pavement like thunder, her heart roaring in her ears. Her curls bounced wildly, her blazer flaring behind her like wings. Her hands wrapped around him, hugging him tight. Kai smiled, leaning backwards to take a look at her. Before he could say a single word

  • ONLY YOU, NO CONTRACTS.   GOLDEN LIGHT OF FLORENCE.

    The jet touched down just as the golden light of Florence’s early evening spilt over the tarmac. As soon as Tiffany stepped onto the stairs, the warm Italian breeze kissed her cheeks. But what truly stole her breath was the car that awaited at the base of the steps.A Rolls-Royce Boat Tail. A custom pearl and rose-gold finish that shimmered like sunlit silk. The wooden rear deck gleamed under the fading sunlight, handcrafted like a yacht. It looked like something out of a dream. It's a fantasy-made metal.Tiffany descended the last step slowly, her heels clicking with intent, her lips parted in awe. "Kai!" she whispered."In love?" he asked, his arms wrapping around her waist, taking her towards the car with that lazy confidence that made her stomach flip. "Can I drive it? I wanna drive it!" She pouted, looming at him. Kai chuckled. She had been drowsy throughout the flight. Driving? "Not today, baby. Come on." He opened the door for her. Tiffany looked around. "What about your gua

    Tiffany scrambled away, her chest heaving as they subdued Kate. But Kate’s voice rose, sharp and mocking as she sneered at Tiffany. "You think you’re special? You think Kai loves you? You’re nothing but a means to an end. You’ll never carry the Winson heir. Kai would never let you! You're just some whore he picked at the club!" The words struck Tiffany like a physical blow. Her blood ran cold. Her period… it hadn’t come. Her chest tightened as realization crashed over her. In a sudden haze, She bolted up the stairs, her mind spinning, ignoring Audrey’s calls as she raced up the stairs. Her breaths came fast, unsteady. Her heart pounded as she grabbed her phone from the dresser, yanking open her calendar app. She scrolled back counting the days. Twenty-six days. Twenty-six days late. Panic clawed at her as she stared at her phone and her hands trembled, gripping the edge of the vanity. Slowly, she sat at the edge of the bed with her gaze locked on the screen. "Tiffany…" Kai’s voice

  • ONLY YOU, NO CONTRACTS.   MOST TREASURED

    Three days later, Tiffany sat at her desk, her hands clumsily shuffling through papers as her head felt like a lead weight, her stomach twisting and turning like a storm at sea. The morning had been relentless, emails, reports, deadlines but none of those could distract her from the growing unease that crawled through her body. Her vision blurred slightly as she glanced at Noami and Elle who were going through their weekly reports. Their voices seemed muffled and distant like she was underwater. Tiffany blinked hard, trying to focus, but the world only spun faster. The desk beneath her hands felt too far away."Guys, let’s take a break," she whispered, her voice so soft. Her exhaustion was palpable, weighing down her words.Noami looked up sharply, her brow furrowing in concern. "Tiffany, are you okay? You don’t look too good."Tiffany forced her lips into a weak smile. Her hand trembled as she reached for her water bottle, the cool plastic grounding her momentarily. She took a sip,

    "Going down on me," he said, his tone firm but laced with vulnerability. His eyes met hers, dark and intense. "I don’t want it." Her breath stilled, confusion flickering across her face. "Why?" His jaw tightened, his hands gripping her waist a little harder before loosening again. He leaned in. "Because I might lose control," he said. "And if I lose it with you like that… I don’t know if I can stop." The sheets were a mess twisted and pushed low on the bed, their bodies tangled in a fevered knot of heat. Tiffany’s back arched and her skin flush against Kai’s as he hovered over her, their mouths fused in a breathless, consuming kiss. Her fingers twisted into his hair, pulling him closer, while her other hand gripped the hard line of his back. She felt every ripple of muscle as he moved in a slow motion and each motion sent a wave of fire through her spine. Kai groaned into her mouth, his lips moving with hers desperately, like he couldn’t get enough of her. His palms wrapped

    Tiffany shook her head. "No, thank you." She disappeared into the bedroom, closing the door gently behind her. The moment she was alone, she let out a long sigh, her shoulders slumping. She undressed quickly, stepping into the shower. The warm water cascaded over her, washing away the stress of the day. But the heavy feeling in her chest lingered. Once finished, she slipped into a silk robe, the fabric cool and smooth against her skin. She caught her reflection in the mirror, her fingers brushing against the neckline of the robe. It was new but she knew he wouldn’t be able to resist it. But as excitement flickered in her chest, it was quickly doused by a wave of uncertainty. He still wasn’t home. Suddenly, voices echoed from upstairs, muffled but unmistakably loud. Tiffany froze, her heart thudding. Her breath hitched as she recognized the voice. It was Kai’s. But she had never heard him yell like this before. "What do you mean you can’t fucking find Kate?!" Kai’s voice boomed, fi

    Tiffany approached, her heels clicking softly against the ground. She stopped just short of the pile, clutching the strap of her bag nervously. Kai’s gaze locking onto hers, his arms crossing over his chest as he studied her."What? You’re moving in?" he asked, his voice low, tinged with disbelief.Tiffany shrugged, trying for nonchalance, though her heart raced under his intense scrutiny. "You asked me to. I know I didn’t tell you—"But before she could finish, his lips were on hers. The kiss was sudden, stealing the air from her lungs and the words from her tongue. It silenced everything. His breath was warm against her lips. "What are you saying? What I own is yours already. You don’t need any permission to do anything."Her cheeks flushed instantly. A smile broke through her lips as she threw her arms around his neck, burying her face against him. "Gosh, I’ve been waiting for this," he whispered. Days later, Tiffany stood in her boutique, adjusting the sleeve of a mannequin for

  • ONLY YOU, NO CONTRACTS.   THE FEELING IS AMAZING

    The reception was a vision of soft candlelight and swaying greenery. Tiffany found herself swept into the rhythm of the evening, laughing and sipping champagne. Then DJ’s voice rang out over the speakers."And now, ladies and gentlemen, it’s time for the bride and groom’s first dance."The room was hushed as Allison and Henry took centre stage. Tiffany could feel the anticipation thrumming in her chest, an energy that seemed to ripple through the crowd. Henry extended his hand toward Allison, his smile soft, and she placed her fingers in his, her cheeks tinted with a delicate blush.The music started a slow, romantic tune that wrapped itself around the couple like a gentle embrace. They moved together effortlessly, the sway of their bodies in perfect harmony, their eyes never leaving each other.Tiffany watched, her heart unexpectedly tight in her chest. She glanced toward Kai, who stood a few feet away, his hands in his pockets. His gaze was fixed on solely her like she was the only

    The door creaked open with a low, lazy groan.Kai stepped inside, already dressed in a sharp black suit that hugged his tall frame perfectly, a slim black tie knotted at his throat. His dark eyes swept across the room, taking in the organized chaos. Makeup brushes scattered across a vanity. Curling irons still warm, makeup bottles open and half-used. The soft scent of hairspray and perfume hung in the air.And there, right in the center of it all, sat Tiffany.She was perched on a stool in front of the mirror, her legs crossed, laughing lightly as Kasey, her stylist, dabbed a final touch of highlighter along her cheekbones. Her skin glowed under the soft lights, a delicate shimmer kissing the curves of her face. Her hair tumbled down her back in soft, loose curls, some strands pinned slightly away from her face.Tiffany wasn’t dressed yet just sitting there in simple black lace underwear, a matching bra and panties that clung to her flawless skin. She looked effortless beautiful all a

    He groaned, his forehead pressing to the back of her shoulder, his breath hot against her damp skin. He was losing himself in her, drowning in the way she gave him everything, her body, her voice, her soul. She was his, utterly. "Tiffany... I want you to—" He whimpered, his eyes closed deeply.Tiffany shook violently beneath him, her body still panting his name like a prayer. He was trembling. His teeth grazing her shoulders as her release left him wrecked and vulnerable. It was too much for him. He followed her over the edge, spilling himself deep inside her, his entire body shuddering as he let go.The room fell into silence, except for the sound of their ragged breathing. Hours later, the sheets twisted around their bare bodies. They were still damp from the shower they had earlier. Kai lay stretched out on his back, his chest rising and falling heavily. One arm was loosely wrapped around Tiffany, his fingers brushing absently against her skin, keeping her close. She rested ag

    "Now," he growled, grabbing a fistful of her hair and tilting her head back. "Be a good girl and clean your mess properly."Tiffany whimpered, her thighs clenching together as she opened her mouth wider, offering herself completely to him.Kai’s fingers tightened in her hair, the sharp sting making Tiffany’s breath hitch. Her heart hammered in her chest, but she opened wider. So obedient and desperate for the taste of him."That’s it," he murmured approvingly, guiding his cock between her lips.The moment she wrapped her mouth around him, Kai let out a guttural sound. A raw, primal mix of a growl and a moan that seemed to reverberate through his entire body. His hips rolled forward, unthinking, desperate, forcing more of himself into her warm, wet mouth. Pleasure shuddered through him, his body betraying the control he always prided himself on.Tiffany’s tongue swirled instinctively, tasting herself mingled with him, the sheer intimacy of it making her heart race.
