Chapter Eighteen
The next morning was terrible. Sandra had come to check on me and I had muttered something to get her to leave. I wanted to be alone. I had sent the money to my dad as soon as Jax had sent it and there hadn’t been as much as a thank you.
I had called him and he had confirmed that he received it.
Jax on the other hand, I had texted him and told him I had received the money, with a thank you attached to the text. I don’t know what I expected after his sudden change of attitude but it was not for him to ignore my message so blatantly. I felt so embarrassed.
But I asked myself why exactly he had kissed me.
I had to admit that my mind had gone to the kiss more times than I wanted to process. It had been very short, with minimal contact. Just his lips and the tip o

JaxI stared at Reine as she stood next to my desk, my mind racing. I didn’t know what to make of her demands of the previous day. Of course, it was part of the contract that she got whatever sum of money she asked for, so long as it was a reasonable sum.For some reason I couldn’t explain though, yesterday had put things into perspective. No matter how great the relationship between us was, it was still business. She and I were using each other to attain our objectives.I had no idea what she needed the money to do and after the previous night, I had almost given in to the temptation of calling Dylan and getting him to send over what he had found on her. But I had told Reine I wouldn’t pry into her life and I was going to respect that promise.She looke
Silhouette Chapter Twenty
I almost couldn’t believe my ears. After I had spoken out for him, defended him, even though my heart had been racing, he was treating me so coldly. I was beginning to hate the fact that I had growing feelings for this man. I was a little numb. Rejection had never had me feeling this way. If anything, before I had been used to it so it was never something that I particularly dreaded. But with how Jax’s tone switched when we got into his office, I wondered just how much I had attached myself to him, how much importance I had given him. Because the way my heart had shattered in that moment was not healthy. I was definitely going to cry tonight. I had pushed the tears away enough. It wasn’t even healthy at this point. Honestly, I couldn’t explain why exactly I was so hurt by Jax’s rejection if anyone asked. It wasn’

JaxI stared at the expectant look on Reine’s face. I didn’t know what exactly she was expecting me to say but I knew she thought it was nothing good. For what seemed like the thousandth time, I wondered who exactly had hurt her to the point where she didn’t trust anybody at all. I stared at her in silence for a while, marveling at her beauty.I couldn’t even deny it at this point. I had feelings for this woman, no matter how much I had tried to turn them off. I hated the fact that she was keeping secrets from me and I had wanted to punish her for it by being distant.I didn’t know how to even start asking all the questions I had. I shook my head to clear my thoughts. There was a clearly questioning look on her face, and I knew she expected me to speak.
Silhouette Epilogue
Jax stared at Reine with a fascinated look on his face. There was no more pretending that he was not completely obsessed with this woman. And the more the days went, the more he felt like she was made for him. It was a few weeks after their truce and after a dinner home, they had ended up in the bedroom. Reine was standing naked in front of him and he had apologized beforehand because he didn’t think there was going to be anything gentle about the sex they were about to have. Jax placed his cold fingers on Reine’s aching nipples. Reine gasped and looked up at him. "Jax?" she let out breathlessly. "Shhh," Jax said, then bent his dark head and slipped one nipple into his mouth. Reine arched her back involuntarily and clutched at Jax so she wouldn't stumble and fall.
