Skylar didn't sleep a wink that night. She only forced herself out of bed when her mother knocked on her door to check up on her. After brushing her teeth, she went downstairs to put something in her stomach like her mother insisted on.They were still having breakfast when the doorbell rang. Skylar got up to go see who it was, needing an excuse to get away from her mother's stern insistence that she eat when she didn't have any fucking appetite.Her heart threatened to leap out of her chest when she opened the door to find Luca and Cornelia. While the woman looked somewhat neutral, her son had nothing but coldness in his eyes.She focused on Cornelia, expecting an outburst, for the older woman to rip into her for cruelly hiding her grandson, but Cornelia surprised her with a small smile.“Hello, Skylar. How are you doing?”Skylar blinked. “I'm fine.”An awkward pause, before Cornelia spoke again. “We came to see my grandson.”Skylar nodded, having already expected that. “Please come i

Cornelia ripped into Luca the moment the door closed behind them.“Luca Mathews, that was no way to speak to Skylar. You shouldn't have spoken to her like that!”Luca whirled around, glaring at her. “Oh yeah? How else was I supposed to speak to her? Fall at her feet and thank her for keeping my son away from me for three fucking years?”“You hurt her first, Luca.” His mum began to say.“That's beside the point mum. I've apologized for everything I did to her and I'm still trying hard to make up for it!” He scoffed as his chest ached anew. “What about her? Not a word, mum. Not a sorry. After keeping such a big thing from me, she hasn't even offered me a single apology!”“So your problem is that she hasn't yet apologized?” She jammed her hand on her hip. “Tell me, Luca. How long did it take you to apologize for everything you've done to her?”“I apologized the moment I found out the truth!” He bit out, glaring at her. “And she forgave you." His mother pointed out.“Well that's quite so
Taming My Hot Personal Assistant •107•His Insecurities
Alex knew something was wrong almost immediately Skylar opened the door to him. First was the fake smile she plastered on her face, and second, was her lukewarm response to his kiss which hadn't been so in a while.“You look radiant.” He complimented, hoping for a more tangible reaction.“Thanks.” She answered simply as she ushered him, and his unease shot up immediately.He told himself he was just overreacting as he followed her inside, but the response of everyone else as soon as he said hi was very telling.“Hi.” All three–Skylar's mum, her sister and Laura– said back.He was more surprised by Emily's reaction because normally she would say more than that and try to engage him in an animated conversation that would almost make him forget about Skylar's presence.Turning to Skylar, he asked quietly, “Is everything alright, babe?”Instead of answering, she looked towards her family in a wordless request, and without a word, they all began making their way out of the living room.Aft

The blaring sound of her alarm jolted Skylar awake. Not ready to get out of bed, she reached out and slapped it to shut it up. The alarm usually rang again after a thirty minute silence but it felt like only a minute before she was being jolted awake.Glaring at the offending device, she finally forced herself to sit up on the bed before she could be tempted to disobey its wake-up call. It was six o'clock now. She had to get ready for breakfast and work. Groaning, she carried herself out of bed and went to the bathroom to brush her teeth and take a shower. Afterwards, she changed into casual clothes and headed out of the bedroom.Laura was already up so they prepared breakfast together. Just as they finished setting up the table, the doorbell rang. It was still early in the morning and that made Skylar grimace as she went to get it.Her heart leaped when she found Luca on her porch looking devilishly handsome in a body-fitting grey suit, a new, fitting haircut, and a well-trimmed lig
Taming My Hot Personal Assistant •109•He's Not Worth It
Alex rushed out of his bathroom, quickly making his way over to his closet. He cursed softly under his breath when he looked towards his wall clock. He'd only meant to nap for an hour after the exhausting day he'd spent running errands for his father but an hour's nap had turned into three in what seemed like a twinkle of an eye. He was definitely going to be an hour late picking Skylar up for their date.A smile split his face as he thought of the woman who so had his heart, a thrill shooting through him. It didn't matter how many dates they went on, spending some time alone with Skylar was something he always relished, and he always found himself looking forward to it.More so in the past two weeks.He stiffened, realizing he was about to allow that bastard to penetrate his mind again.It'd been two weeks. Two fucking weeks of having to tolerate that guy's very intruding presence in Skylar's life and his.

Skylar finally understood the meaning of loud silence, because the silence that settled over the room after her answer was so deafening that she couldn't hear anything else. Not even her own breathing. Until Luca exploded.“Are you crazy, Skylar? Are you out of your goddamn mind? Do you want to stop loving me so badly that you'll agree to marry someone you have no fucking feelings for?”She knew he was right; she was going out of her mind. She should be retracing, eating back her words, or at least trying to maneuver her way out of the hole she was digging herself into, but Luca's anger and his certainty of her love for him only served to fuel her own irritation.“Don't fucking tell me what I feel or don't feel!” She sneered. “Contrary to what you believe, my life does not revolve around you, Luca. If I will, I'll get married to Alex because I fucking love him!”Luca stared at her in stunned silence before an infuriating laughter burst out of him. “Tell me, Skylar. How ridiculous do yo

“Is Mr. Knight inside?” Skylar asked, stepping in front of Luca's secretary's desk.“Oh yes." The young woman beamed. “I think he's been expecting you. He told me to inform him if you stop by even if he's in a meeting. Luckily, he's not in a meeting now, so you can go in, Miss Simpson.”‘Luckily', Skylar thought wryly as she thanked the secretary and proceeded to knock Luca's door. For whatever reason, she was nervous about having to discuss the new arrangement with Luca.She opened the door and stepped inside, closing it behind her. Their eyes met and locked, eliciting a vibrant buzz of awareness through her veins she had to strive hard to not let show.It didn't take very long for the staring contest to unnerve her even further, and she cleared her throat, letting him win by looking away.“I'm here to talk about the new arrangement.” She said.He quirked a brow. “Do you intend to stand through it? Please sit down, Skylar.”She shook her head. “I'd rather not. This won't take long any
Taming My Hot Personal Assistant •112•Worth So Much More
Skylar knew she shouldn't even be surprised, but she was surprised. And she was shocked.For a long moment she just stared at Alex's father even after he'd ripped the sheet out of the check book. When she finally found her voice, she shook her head in wonder.“Three million dollars? Is that what you think your son's happiness is worth?”“Happiness?” The man scoffed. “Please, I know my son. He's fickle, impulsive, makes decisions on fleeting emotions rather than his common sense. You wouldn't believe it if I told you how many women I heard him telling his mum was the one.”Skylar huffed. “He was just barely an adult when your wife died, Sir. We're all allowed to be impulsive during that time. But he's mature enough now to know exactly what he wants. And even if that weren't the case, you have no right to try and meddle in his life like this.” “Of course I have to meddle in his life. He is my son. He's going to be thankful to me later.”
