CHAPTER 1

Ashley's POV

“Ashley, Do you have plans for tomorrow?” My Dad asked me over the phone, interrupting my thoughts.”

“I don't have any plans, Dad, I will just stay in and watch a few movies, I'm here on a break, remember?” I replied, laying on the cozy bed in my hotel room ‘it's so comfy’ I told myself.

“It didn't seem that way to me. All you ever did since you got there was business.”

“Touché, but I'm done with all that, and now I'm going to explore the city of Paris.” I said out of excitement, thinking of all the fun I will have.

“I think it's too late for that, sweetheart, I need you here. Micheal is coming back into town, and I'm inviting him for dinner to Welcome him home. I need you to be here when he arrives. You've always liked Micheal since you were a child, you will get to see him again and maybe discuss business with him. it's a win-win for you.”

I froze on hearing that name that reminds me of most of my childhood memories. Micheal Kingston. I did not get to see him much because he left New York when I was ten . My father's best friend and business Partner, the one who had always been a father figure to me. He practically watched me grow. I can't wait to see him but I would like to stay a bit longer in Paris.

“But Dad…” He interrupted me before I could speak further.

“No buts Ashley, Micheal is not just anyone to us, he's family and you know that. I expect you to be in New York tomorrow.”

“Fine, I will be there. See you soon dad.”

I came to Paris to take a break from work ,but it has been all about business since I arrived. But because tonight is my last night in Paris, I am going to have fun and possibly make new friends, before I have to put on a serious face for whatever it was my father had planned for tomorrow.

******

I entered the finest club in Paris later that night. And the smell of luxury perfumes and expensive champagne hit me as I walked closer to the bar. I was here to have fun and enjoy myself.

I ordered a wine, and the bartender slide it to me across the counter with a knowing smile. I glanced around the crowd, It's pretty much what I imagined it would be, different people drinking champagne, smoking expensive cigars, and men flirting with women. I wasn't expecting anything else. Then he walked in.

He was a tall, well built man with a sharp jawline. He had on an Armani suit that screams luxury, his dark brown hair was perfectly styled, and his face showed no expression. He exchanged geeetings with the bartender and ordered a drink. He looks old, but his young features make it difficult for one to notice

He looked at me and our eyes met for a brief moment, I looked at him for a bit longer than I intended ‘Bitch you are staring’ I said to myself.

I shake my head to remove any thoughts of him.

Then I took a sip of my wine.

I couldn't help but look at him once more and I caught him staring, he did not look away. He just came over and stood directly in front of me.

“ Why is a damsel like you, Sitting alone in a place like this? you could use a friend, don't you think? He asked, obviously flirting with me.

I simply glanced at him, pretending like I hadn't been checking him out ever since he stepped in.

“Oh trust me I'm not alone, my boyfriend is out there on a phone call.” I lied, and from the way he's smiling now, I think he knew.”

He burst out laughing, holding his drink with one hand as he shook his head. “And you think I will believe that lie of yours, Are you that scared of me?”

I forced a smile, feeling a bit embarrassed.

“What gave it away?”

“This isn't my first time in the club darling, most girls say that to get rid of guys. Nice try tho.”

I snorted, trying not to smile.

“I'm not most girls and I'm not scared of you. I'm capable of being by myself.”

“Oh really? He leaned in a little closer “I can be your boyfriend for tonight you know, to help you keep the guys off your back.”

I looked away to hide my face from him. I was blushing to the point of being unable to bear it but I was certainly not going to let him see that he affected me in this way. “You are being a little too confident, don't you think?”

“I can be anything just to have you darling.”

‘Damn! Why is it so hot here?’ I asked myself.

This man is making me feel all sorts of things but I knew better than to fall for a stranger's charm, someone who looks almost twice my age.

But for some reason unknown to me, I wish to know more about this man.

Just for the sake of getting to know him, I decided to ask him a few questions “What do you do? it's okay if u dont want me in your business though.”

He smiled, sensing my curiosity.

“It's okay. I'm a businessman. But tonight, I'm here to have fun.”

“So you do this often? Flirting with girls? That's how you have fun?”

“He leaned in closer to me, his breath wrams my skin. “Maybe, but none of them had my attention like you have right now. Have spent more than 10 minutes with you, which is a good sign. I guess I was just waiting for the right woman to come along and show me what real fun looks like.”

I swallowed hard. He definitely had a way with words, I will give him that but I wasn't about to fall for his charms so easily. “You will have to do better, those sweet words don't work on me.”

His smile deepened but he appears to be challenging now. “Oh I will, And I don't plan on leaving. Not until you are ready to have some fun.”

I moved closer to him, our faces just an inch apart as I whispered in his ear. “I don't give in easily, you will have to try better than that.”

“Is that a challenge?”

He leaned in even closer, his breath fanned my skin. “You are playing hard to get, aren't you?

I shook, my heart thudding against my chest but I forced myself to be calm. “Maybe I am, or maybe I'm just bored.”

“Sweetheart, you are anything but bored.”

Without uttering another word, he pressed his lips against mine, he was hesitant at first, to see if I was going to stop him or pull back but when he saw that none happened, he allowed his hands to find their way into my hair and pull me in closer to deepen the kiss.

I kissed him back and he moaned Into my mouth. I was so caught up in the heat of the moment to care about where we were. All the sensible part of me screamed at me to stop, that I was kissing a man old enough to be my father but I didn't care. This was reckless but yet, I wanted it.

His phone buzzed with a message which interrupted our moment, we pulled apart for a brief second to catch our breath.

“You want to get out of here? Let's go somewhere private. I booked a place nearby.”

I simply nodded, not knowing how to reply.

“Good” he took my hands in his, leading me to the club's exit.

My mind raced as I followed him, but I didn't pull away, i didnt stop him. I knew exactly where this is going and how it's going to end but I still wanted it. I might regret my actions tomorrow but I didn't care.

For the first time in a long time, I don't want to care about the consequences. I just want to have fun and enjoy myself.

CHAPTER 2
Ashley's POV As we arrived at the hotel, we walked in and stepped into the elevator, and just as we did, he moved closer to me and held my face in his hands. He moved my head back slowly, placing kisses down my neck, I tilted my neck more to the side, giving him more access. ‘This is wrong, this wrong’ I repeated those words over and over in my head, but I couldn't stop him.He slowly pulled back and looked up at me. I looked away and blushed.He just smiled and took my hand in his. He took me to a door and opened it, I was shown a luxurious and expensive looking suite.“I need you.” He murmured, leaning forward to rest his head on mine. He ran his fingers across my lips, and at that moment, it was difficult for me to breathe. He kissed me again, his tongue forcing its way into my mouth, insisting on entry and when I did, he forced his tongue into my mouth and kissed me harder, it was a kiss of desperation. I let out a moan as his tongue stroked my mouth with desire, making my tem

CHAPTER 3
Micheal's POV I sat on the luxury seat of the private jet, I had it all to himself, perks of being a billionaire. I looked through the window, my eyes following the clouds passing outside in white patterns. My mind was far removed from the beauty of the cloud. All I could think about was her. The hotel room girl ‘Shit! I don't even know her name,’ I muttered to myself.“Sir, do you need anything?” One of the flight attendants asked, interrupting my thoughts.“No, thanks. I will call for you when I need anything.” She simply nodded and carried on with her job.My thoughts drifted back to events of last night. It wasn't planned that way. The one night stand was supposed to be a way to distract me and help keep my mind from the pains of my past. I had justified that a little fun wouldn't hurt, just like every other night. But then she came along.Her innocence caught me off guard. She wasn't like the women I was used to, experienced, and street-wise. No, she was different, pure, and del

CHAPTER 4
ASHLEY'S POV“Ashley” Uncle Micheal called from the hallway, he followed closely behind me as I walked down the hall, my heart was beating against my chest. I walked faster, hoping he would not catch on. I wasn't prepared to talk about this. Not after all that has happened.“Ashley!” He called me again before grabbing my arm in a gentle way.I turned to face him, pretending as if I had no knowledge of what this is all about. ““Uncle Micheal, what is it? Do you need my help with anything?”His eyes were filled with something I can't explain but I saw the guilt there, the same guilt I am still feeling for allowing myself to fall for his charms, which led my first experience to be a bitter one. He was about to say something, maybe he wanted to apologize or he's trying to explain. But I wouldn't let myself fall for it again.“I would like us to talk about what happened last night. I know I hurt you and i..”“Uncle Micheal, I interrupted him before he could finish. I don't know what

CHAPTER 5
ASHLEY'S POV“Ashley, are you all right? I heard you speaking loudly, so I came to check up on you." My dad asked as he glanced back and forth between me and Uncle Michael.Uncle Michael jumped in quickly, sensing my discomfort. "She's just upset, Jayden. It's been hard on her with me away for so long. She misses her favourite uncle."I stood frozen in place, my heart still pounding in my chest. I had been so sure he had heard it all, everything about that conversation.My dad exhaled, his eyes relaxing. "You are at fault here, Michael. You were supposed to be there more, you know she likes spending time with you since she was young but now you have your chance to do it right. Make it up to her. Then my father turned his attention to me, “And Ashley, take it easy on him, will you? He had his reasons for his decision."I simply nodded, fighting to keep my cool. My dad wasn't aware. He didn't hear any of our conversation, and I had to make sure that he never found out.Sense of relief

Chapter 6
Michael's POV “Jayden,I have to go now,” I tried to sound as neutral as I could. “I have an early business meeting tomorrow. Thanks for having me over again.” Jayden looked up and nodded, “I understand, I know you have a lot to catch up on, but try to have some rest as soon as you get home.” I simply nodded, forcing a smile. “Don't worry, Jayden, I will definitely have some rest.” As I was leaving, I looked at Ashley briefly. She looked down, refusing to make eye contact with me. As I closed the door behind me, relief washed over me . That was close. The last thing I wanted right now is for Jayden to find out about what happened between me and his daughter. I got into my car and drove off. What I need now is to have a good sleep and regain my strength. But I can't, I have a lot on my mind. I need to clear my head. Maybe going to the club and having some drinks will help. Twenty minutes later, I arrived at the club, A place where people went to forget their worries. I entered an

CHAPTER 7
Kate's POV"What do you want, Kate?"The phone had been answered by the same icy voice I hadn't heard for a long time , but I couldn't blame him. Not for it, at least. Everything that had transpired had left me no right to expect anything else, and I was the one who had ruined it."We need to talk," I told him, my voice trembling somewhat, though I fought to stand firm. "It's important."There was a silence, and I knew he was thinking things over. I could practically hear him pacing back and forth, his mind racing with the permutations of what I might possibly want, of what I was after his time.Finally, he spoke, his tone tougher than I remembered. "You've got one shot, Kate. What's this all about?"I swallowed hard, the weight of my decision against me. It was stupid of me to reach out to him, but I was desperate. The last two years of my life had been full of errors, and now I was at the edge, ready to fall off the cliff. Unless I could find a way to balance myself.“I'm not askin

CHAPTER 8
Kate's POV After Jayden left, the silence in the room was deafening. I remained standing in the living room. My mind was filled with thoughts of everything that had just happened. the kiss, the conversation, the tension between us. But as I tried to take my mind off it to focus on Jayden, my mind drifted back to the past.I grabbed the glass of wine I had left on the counter, my hand trembling slightly as I took a sip. The taste tightened the knot that was forming in my stomach.‘What am I doing?’ I asked myself, the question repeating itself in my mind over and over.This is not the way it was supposed to be.Ever since my divorce from Michael, nothing has been the same. I had tried to fill the gaps with other men, with fleeting connections that in the grand scheme of things meant nothing at all. But none of them had been able to replace what I had lost. Michael had been my world for so long, and when that world had collapsed, I had been left trying to pick up the pieces, not quite

CHAPTER 9
Micheal's POV“Kate, what's this all about? You said you want to talk? You have your chance now.” “Micheal, why the rush? you can't stand being with me. Is that bad now?”Seeing my ex-wife again after 15 years does a lot of things to me. I don't even know how to feel right now—should I be sad, angry, hurt, or in pain? I thought I had had enough of all that in the past 15 years, but seeing her again brings back painful memories and memories I would love to bury in the past.“It's been 15 years,15 years of no communication, 15 years of being divorced, and now you want to talk? What exactly do you want to talk about?”“About Us.” She said with teary eyes, “Micheal, you need to know how sorry I am. I know my actions have caused you great pain, but all I need is a chance to right my wrongs. Let me fix this.”The old me would have fallen for those teary eyes, I would have embraced her and wiped her tears but it's not going to work on me this time, I know she can be tricky and unpredictab

CHAPTER 10
Michael's POV“Hey man, is everything alright? You don't sound good.” jayden said through the phone.I sighed and replied, “I don't know what or how to feel, man. I thought I got it all figured out. Besides, did you know Kate was in town? I was shocked when I got a text from her, she wasn't looking good when I saw her.”“You met with her? Why? I mean…When?” Jayden asked, with a voice laced with curiosity.“We met tonight. She reached out to me, asking to see. So I decided to give her a chance to explain herself.”“No Micheal, I know nothing about her arrival. So you've got the answers you seek then.”I sank into the nearest chair in my mansion, my head in my hands, “Jayden, It's complicated. Her reasons sound like excuses to me. I gave her everything she had no reason to cheat on me, and to make matters worse, I had no information about the guy she cheated on me with, I don't even know his name.”I could hear Jayden's breath shake through the phone, as if trying to process what I jus
