Kira's POV "I am officially an orphan," I gritted into my phone as I stormed into my apartment. "Today I disown my parents and will live a tumultuous life." Stella scoffed on the other end. "Yeah right," "Can you believe them?!" I asked, kicking off my shoes in anger. "They betrothed me without my consent?! Who the hell does that, Stella?! It's the freakin 21st century, who on earth gets betrothed these days?" Stella chuckled, obviously enjoying my breakdown. "Girl, I always knew shit was wrong with your parents, I just didn't know it was this bad." Groaning, I flopped on the sofa in the living room, holding the phone pressed to my ear. Grabbing a handful of my golden blonde hair, I hissed through my teeth. "I still can't believe this! You can't believe this too right? Tell me you can't!" "Oh, I believe it." My best friend snickered. "Your parents are bat shit crazy. Always knew that anyway. I suppose it's a good thing you're starting to see it." You're not helping Stella. S
Kira's POVFuck I was doomed. I reread the message, closed my eyes and wished I could disappear from the surface of the earth. Xavier Barnes was an expert software engineer, who's blog on data analysis I had read for an assignment. I had saved his mail for Professor's Ford class a few days ago. Swallowing, I tapped on the reply button. Kira Andrews: Hello, I'm Kira. Please ignore the message, it was a mistake. Can we pretend this never happened? I would appreciate it. There. Any decent person would understand it was a mistake and- My phone pinged interrupting my thoughts and there it was. A reply from Xavier Barnes. Jackass, I snapped mentally then took a deep breath. " I apologize once again. Please overlook it."Stella sent a message gushing over the list ans telling me to go for it. But I couldn't focus on her words. What if the Xavier Barnes guy tells Professor Ford about the list? What if this resulted in one those messy internet scandals?! I would be shamed! Ther
Kira's POV I checked through my phone for the one-thousandth time before getting out of the car. It was an Audi, Dad had gotten me last year because I had aced an award in Data analytics. He had been so proud, I thought he was going to sleep with the award plague by his side every night. "No reply," I mumbled to myself. I hadn't gotten a word in reply from Xavier and with each step I took towards the house, I felt like a stupid person. What was I thinking sending pictures of me in my underwear to a man I didn't even know?! What if he thought I was disgusting? I had spent the day stalking his social media. Turns out he was a big deal. Hot CEO of a tech company with over 15 branches. He was one of America's most eligible bachelors. No wonder he thought I was a stalker. He probably got nudes sent to him every day. I stopped at the entrance, frowning when a box glared right up at me. A delivery? A gift? Probably an apology gift from my Dad. Mom would never apologize for trying to ma
Xavier's POV I was a damned bastard. I had heard those words for more than half my life yet never believed them. Until now. Not until now. My phone vibrated with a message and quickly I tapped on it like a fucking starved man. Because I was. Oh, I had been for a long fucking time. Kira. "Oh fuck," I leaned against the counter, viewing the picture she had sent me. She'd cropped her face, yet her blonde hair managed to spill over her breasts. That tanned skin, fuck! She had that golden glow on her skin that made her look like honey. Honey that would melt and run down my tongue. Her breasts, oh hell, they were lovely. Perky round globes covered in a white lace bra They looked so damned feathery against her skin, cupping the beauties, making my mouth water. "I take it you like it then" She sounded so fucking hopeful on the phone, it killed me. "Like it?" I murmured. "You have the best set of tits I have seen in a long while, Kira." "Oh," she sounded breathless. Ah hell, th
Kira's POV "Here's how this will work, baby girl," Xavier said, his voice low and raspy. It was past six in the morning. I had woken to his calls and I had never been so thrilled in my life. I could still remember last night. It played vividly in my head. His instructions, that voice, that deep low voice that made it so hard to say no to him. That made me want to do as he says. It was terrifying. After my orgasm, when he had ended the call, I'd fallen asleep thinking I had to tell him not to call me anymore. The hold he had on me was... Unsettling. I had been told what to do all my life, by my parents. I didn't want to put up with a man who told me what to do as well. Well, here I was now, curled up on my bed, covered in just bed covers and panties with my phone pressed to my ear listening to his hypnotic voice. "You do as I say," He hummed. "And I'll do everything on your list." "Everything?" I asked. That would mean he wanted to meet physically. I wasn't sure I wanted th
Kira's POV"We're here," Dad announced as he drove towards a huge black gate. "Wipe that frown off your face, Kira. And quit folding your arms like a petulant child," Mom chastened, glaring at me. "Why are you doing this to me?" I grumbled and heard my dad sigh. "Do not be dramatic. I am mad that we are late for the appointment with Barnes. Don't get me angrier." "You engaged me to a stranger without my consent and you expect me not to be dramatic? If I were Stella, there's no way I'd be in this car right now." "Exactly. That foolish girl has corrupted you!" Dad snapped. The gates pulled open and my stomach turned queasy as our car slipped into the compound. My mouth dropped as I gaped at the huge mansion before us. "Just how many people live here?" Mom shook her head in disapproval. "You have to act with dignity. You cannot be so uncouth when you meet with Mr Barnes, do you understand Kira?" I grumbled that I was going to do whatever the hell I wanted. My brows k
Kira's POV"Hey, I've been looking all over for you," Asher replied, a light smile on his face. I suppose he was kind of cute. But not my cup of tea. His taller, muscular, much older brother was more of my- No! I can't seriously be considering going to him. I had to stay away from Xavier. I could throw all the tantrums I could now, but it would not change my parent's mind. If they wanted this engagement with Asher? Then it was happening. "Hey, are you okay?" He asked then dragged a hand down his face. "I'm sorry. I know, the wrong question. I know you're freaking about this marriage, but I promise to always treat you with respect. Always." And with that gentle look in his eyes, I could easily believe him. ...Wrong word, Baby girl...A replay of Xavier's words had my body stirring. I could feel his mouth against mine again, demanding, plundering, taking what was his. "No!" I yelled then blushed when Asher frowned, confused."I understand," He nodded and walked away
Xavier's POVWet. So fucking wet. I pushed the panties aside, the white fabric digging into a corner of her thigh, exposing those puffy lips. I swiped my thumb over Kira's pussy, spreading apart the swollen lips to see all her sweet pink self. A bead of moisture clung to her inner fold and without thinking, I swiped a finger through the lips and tasted her. Her sweet tangy taste exploded in my tongue. A groan escaped me as I sucked on that finger. My little pet tasted heavenly. She was here. In my arms. On my fucking bed. Her sweet little cunt gleamed at me, begging to be fucked just like she did. "Just the thumb, Kira?" I teased, gripping a handful of that supple perfect ass. it bounced when I smacked it lightly, those cheeks jiggling covered her pussy, exposed it, and covered it again as if playing hide and seek with me. When I stroked my thumb down her cunt and teased her moist entrance with it, she gasped, looking at me over her shoulder with those sultry eyes.
