Episode 16 -The Fallout

Camila's POV

'Request for Meeting - Compliance Review'.

That was the email subject line I had gotten in my inbox from HR.

My stomach dropped as I scanned it only to find vague mentions of 'recent observations' and 'potential policy violations' during the merger integration.

Walter Langford's name wasn't there but it didn't need to be for me to know this was his doing. Everyone knew as the whispers in the halls, and the

  • Sinful Desires (Volume 1)   The fake fiancée (5)

    Episode 5 -Roman's POV"You didn't tell us when you had a girlfriend, Roman. Now she's your fiancée". Was the first thing I heard from my mother after a brief hug. Then she gave Elena a very long hug, followed by a kiss on the cheek."Welcome to the family, Sweetie".My family had invited Elena and I for dinner at their estate. Of course they had heard of it and had seen it through the media after the gala.Elena and I arrived by 5 pm, with her in a dinner dress and me, in a suit and tie. Family dinners at the Cortez estate always felt like a production because my mother always insisted that everyone put on formal attire.The meal that was served on the large glass dining table was a three-course meal—orders given by my mother. The silverware were also enough to confuse a diplomat.And tonight, the guest of honour was Elena, and I hated every second of it. I didn't hate it because of her but because

    Episode 4 — Roman's POV Tonight seemed different. The Charity gala was held at the Metropolitan Museum and all male attended guests were in black ties and the females, in glittering gowns. It seemed everyone was holding a champagne flute with smiles, curving the corner of their faces. But the smiles never did reach their eyes. I had been to a hundred of these events and they were all the same. Handshakes were used to seal deals, whispered conversations were used to move markets, and then there was the constant, and exhausting performance of being Roman Cortez. Still, something about tonight seemed extremely different. Elena was on my arm. She was wearing the emerald dress I had chosen for her. The fabric clung to her curves like it was made for her. The plunging neckline that dipped just enough to hint the swell of her breasts, drew eyes and the slit exposed

    Episode 3 — Elena's POV My apartment was in complete disarray. Boxes were scattered everywhere, my clothes were spilling from half-packed suitcases, the movers Roman had hired were standing at attention like soldiers awaiting orders. I had barely had time to process what happened in his office yesterday... The way he had fucked me on that leather couch, the contract clause I had missed, and the fact that I was now moving into a billionaire's penthouse. And he had said it didn't mean anything. I repeated that to myself as the movers loaded my belongings into the black SUV: It doesn't mean anything, Elena Moore. Strictly business. But my body remembered every detail. His fingers inside my pussy. His mouth on my breasts, sucking my nipple. The way he had thrust into me, so deep and relentless until I came apart. And then his cold dismissal afterward. Fuck. I needed to get a grip. Soon, we arrived and the penthouse was on the top floor of a glass tower in the fin

    Episode 2 — Roman's POV I knew she would be back. She showed up at ten o'clock sharp the next day. I would give her that—Elena Moore was punctual and professional. At first, she had seemed like the kind of woman who kept her emotions locked behind the neat blouse she always wore and a precise smile. But surprisingly, I had felt her melt beneath my hands the previous day. "Mr. Cortez". She said, walking into the office with her tablet clutched to her chest. She had a composed exterior but I had seen that shatter by a fraction. "Roman". I corrected. "We're to be engaged, remember? First names are required". She nodded, settling into the chair across from me. I pushed the contract across the desk to her. It consisted ten pages of legalese, carefully drafted by my lawyers. She picked up a pen, scanning the first page with furrowed brows. "You should read the entire document before signing". I said, leaning back. "I've included every detail. Public appearances, media p

  • Sinful Desires (Volume 1)   The fake fiancée (1)

    Episode 1 — Elena's POV I knew I was out of my depth right from the moment I walked into Roman Cortez's penthouse. The man was known for a reputation that preceded him. He was cold, calculating and the kind of billionaire who bought companies the way most people bought coffee. But he had hired me to plan his annual gala, and I'd never turned down a client. Not even one who made my skin prickle with something that wasn't quite fear. The meeting with him had gone as expected as he had outlined his vision in clippers and precise sentences. His dark eyes hadn't left mine and me on the other hand, had taken notes, nodding and assuring him that everything would be flawless. Then, just as I was packing up my tablet, he had stopped me with a single word. "Stay". I froze. His voice was low and commanding, making me turn instantly, expecting some last-minute detail about the centerpieces or the champagne. But instead, he gestured to the leather chair opposite his desk. "S

    Episode 9-Brooklyn's POV Later, I was lying on the pool side seat, loving the feeling of the tan lotion on me when the phone rang."Tristan?". I called, not opening my eyes. "Please can you get the cell?".But it kept on ringing until I got frustrated and got up, stomping inside and to pick it up."Hello?"."Brook". What the heck?"Darren?"."Yeah, it is I, Darren. How are you?"."I...". I shook my head. "How did you get...?"."Your father gave it to me. I asked of you and he told me I could reach you this way"."Oh, that's..."."Amazing isn't it? I was hoping we'd go out on a date sometime?"."Look, Darren, this isn't the..."."How about next week?"."Are you on a call?". Tristan's voice suddenly came behind me, causing my heart to summersault in my chest."Is that your bodyguard?". Darren proded.I turned to Trist
