Chapter 48.

Skye was certain her career was about to end on a bright Tuesday morning.

The email from Adrian Keller's assistant had arrived before eight, requesting her presence in the art director's office as soon as she got in.

There was nothing unusual about being summoned by Adrian anymore, but the timing made her stomach twist, because she had spent most of the previous night buried in research, old archives, and scattered references to Anna, and she had barely managed to make progress on

  • Ten Days to Capture the Biker Heir   Lying on purpose

    Chapter 109.Katrin Roth had stopped counting the cups of coffee Oskar Behrens brought her. The building had been sealed since morning, its employees gathered in the lobby and the adjoining conference room while officers documented access points and collected statements. Greta's office stayed closed behind a cordon, and the body had been taken away for examination. No one had been told a cause of death, and no one had been given permission to return to work.That uncertainty was making people nervous, which Roth preferred. Nervous witnesses talked too much, corrected details nobody had questioned, and revealed what they believed the police already knew. The confident ones could be just as useful, but they took patience. The trick was to listen to the words, watch everything around them, and resist deciding too early which person deserved suspicion.Oskar set a fresh cup beside her notebook. "The staff are asking whether they can go home.""They can, once we have their statements and

  • Ten Days to Capture the Biker Heir   Small circle of suspects

    Chapter 108.The sirens grew louder outside VISION, but Skye stayed on the floor beside Greta with her fingers wrapped around her friend's hand, even though it had already begun to feel colder than it should. She knew the paramedics were coming, and she knew she'd done everything the emergency operator told her to do, but some foolish part of her still expected Greta to squeeze her fingers, open her eyes, and complain about the hour.Instead the first responders came in with their equipment and quiet urgency.One knelt beside Greta while another gently asked Skye to move back, and she obeyed, though it took more effort than she expected. Her knees felt weak, and when she stood she had to catch the edge of the desk to steady herself. She wat

  • Ten Days to Capture the Biker Heir   A murder has happen

    Chapter 107.At 5:20 on Monday morning, Skye Hart stood in front of her apartment mirror, trying to convince herself that the woman staring back looked awake enough to run a company. Behind her, Kai leaned against the bedroom door with his arms crossed, watching her put on her earrings with the expression of someone that is personally offended by the existence of morning."Tell me again why we're leaving the house before the sun has even considered coming out."Skye checked her reflection one last time. "Because we have an event to plan, Mr. Sturm.""An event that will still exist at eight.""And a team that will start arriving at eight. I want to review the arrangements before everyone gets there."Kai pushed away from the door. "You are the director. You can arrive at a reasonable hour and order people around after breakfast."She turned to face him, smiling at the way his hair was still slightly messy from sleep. "You make it sound

  • Ten Days to Capture the Biker Heir   A slow sunday

    Chapter 106.Sunday was the kind of day Skye wished she could bottle and keep for emergencies. There were no meetings, no emails from VISION demanding her attention, no deadlines waiting to ambush her, and no reason to leave the apartment unless she wanted to. She'd spent most of the morning in bed with Kai before he reluctantly left to meet his father and Anna, promising he wouldn't be gone long. Now, dressed in comfortable shorts and one of Kai's oversized shirts, she was stretched across the couch with a blanket over her legs when the doorbell rang.She opened the door to find Elise standing there with two takeaway bags, a bottle of wine tucked under one arm, and the triumphant look of someone who'd accomplished something extraordinary."Before you say anything, take these," Elise announced, pushing the bags toward her. "And don't you dare tell me you're not hungry."Skye took them and peered inside. The smell hit her first, sweet and buttery, and her face lit up. "No way.""Yes

  • Ten Days to Capture the Biker Heir   Make a mess of you

    Chapter 105.Skye opened her eyes, seeing the raw, primal hunger in his gaze.She felt the pressure building, the tension in her thighs trembling. As Kai hammered into her, his cock sliding through the abundance of her natural lubrication, she felt the first wave of her orgasm crash over her. Her internal muscles clamped tight around him, milking him with contractions. Kai let out a guttural roar, his body stiffening. He thrust one last time, burying himself as deep as physically possible, and released a thick, hot rope of cum deep inside her. He shuddered, his forehead resting against hers, both of them panting in the wreckage of their dinner.

    Chapter 104.The scent of charred garlic and something resembling burnt rubber hit Skye the moment she stepped inside. She kicked off her heels, the silence of the hallway was then broken by the rhythmic clatter of a pan hitting a stovetop in the kitchen.Kai stood over the burner, a smudge of soot on his cheek and a look of intense concentration on his face that usually belonged to a racetrack.“What’s the idiot doing now?” She muttered.He wore a simple black t-shirt that clung to the broad muscles of his shoulders, his tattooed arms flexing as he scraped a blackened mass from a skillet."Welcome home," he said, not looking up.Skye leaned against the doorframe, clutching a thick envelope she had retrieved from the lobby. "I saw the m
