VAUGHN'S POVWade Malkiel's words made me rush to the men's room. I got into the cubicle, unzipped my pants, and grabbed some toilet paper as I grabbed my c*ck and shamelessly came into my hands. He had made me shatter into an orgasm just from his words. I was screwed. I got out of the cubicle and washed my face. Wade's voice and his dreams made me shudder with need. When I walked back to the gazebo, I saw him standing by the sea. He looked lost in thought and every step that I took toward him made my body burn.I suddenly realized that I had gotten shy around him."Why did you run?" His piercing gaze burned into me. Turning around I shook my head in answer. I was not ready to tell him that his words just made me come. I suspected he knew, and I started walking toward the car. He caught up with me and laced his fingers with mine.We left Bullata bay and headed to his villa. On arrival, he instructed the guards to open the door since he did not want to be photographed. Mr. Eli Ma
The Art Collector and His Billionaire Lover Chapter 25: Malkiel's Exhibition
WADE'S POVWe were busy over the next two days as we prepared for the museum and art gallery exhibition. Vaughn kept avoiding meeting me, maintaining calls and texts all through the two days. 'How long are you going to avoid me?' I texted.'I am trying to clear my desk so that we have the weekend together.' 'I want a video call tonight. No compromises.'Before I left the office, Elaine arrived with Auden. The awkwardness that was there between them was long gone. And this made me happy since I wanted things to work out for them."We are just here to do the final touches for the exhibition. Everything is ready for tomorrow. The confirmation from the public and elite society is the largest we have ever seen in the history of Valletta." Elaine beamed. "The donations have been streaming in for the last two days after the announcements. The money from the Bexley foundation also arrived today. It will be the biggest donation ever done," Auden stated. I nodded and then pressed the

"What the f*ck do you think you are doing brat," I whispered in shock. He moved back, turned around, and said, "Let's take pictures for the papers, Wade." I smirked and shook my head as the cameras flashed and Vaughn grinned from ear to ear. His mother's face was priceless but what made me laugh out loud was the look on Vera Bexley's face. It was in between disgust and embarrassment. Leaning down to whisper in Vaughn's ear, I reprimanded him. "Why did you not prepare me for this? You should be punished." He turned to look into my eyes, our mouths were inches apart. The excitement in the hall was deafening and I took a step back from him while his eyes twinkled in mischief. "That's enough," I scolded. I walked away from his table and went to sit with Pa. I ignored all the media questions or invites for an interview while Pa kept laughing his heart out as we ate dinner. Sam Bexley walked over after the event was finished and Uncle Malkiel was the first to stand up in defense.
The Art Collector and His Billionaire Lover Chapter 27: Euphoria
Time ticked by so slowly, the tension in the air thick like the honey color of his eyes. He rubbed himself on my crotch."Stop squirming," I commanded as I rolled back on the seat and titled my neck to look up at his beautiful features. The moonlight shone on the balcony making him look like an angel."I can't help it, Wade," Vaughn breathed softly, shifting his weight when I grabbed his waist to stop his movement. I wanted to take this slow, but he was being a rogue about it. "What do you want to do?" I asked him. I saw him panic and his body tremble. He nestled his face in the starched corner of his shirt, but I slid my hand up his back and tugged the back of his neck making him face me. "What are you thinking about?" I murmured. "About how much I craved this," he responded.Pulling his head to mine, I kissed him. The kiss was a mixture of the sweet notes of fruit that were distilled into the whiskey and the crispness of its freshness against ice. Demanding more, I opened
The Art Collector and His Billionaire Lover Chapter 28: Waves

I wanted us to make up and talk, before getting back to the chaos we left behind.I had rented out a yacht and now we were deep in the Mediterranean enjoying the breeze and the view. Wade was sulking because I had dragged him out of bed while he wanted to rest. We only had today to keep each other company since tomorrow we have to return to Valletta. "You do know that I am the president of the holdings. I can always delegate," Wade complained. "I planned this for us. Why do you always have to be difficult?" I scolded him. "We have a lifetime, Vaughn," he stated."You better keep your word," I laughed.His body demeanor changed, and he leaned back on the railing and closed his eyes. I could tell that he wanted to relax and enjoy the scenery. I steered the yacht closer to the destination, shut the engine, and
The Art Collector and His Billionaire Lover Chapter 29: Everette Hotels
After having breakfast at home, Gideon and I drove to the Everette hotels. Upon arrival, we found the media was already outside waiting for me. Gideon drove past the main entrance, and we used the back entrance with the underground parking. We got into the VIP elevator and Elaine was already waiting for us. "It's about time you showed your-" Elaine's statement drifted off when she saw Gideon. "How was your weekend, sis?" I asked her. "Good morning, Elaine," Gideon stated. She turned around and walked toward the office without a word. Gideon murmured, "Patience." We walked into my office and Elaine moved to sit by the couch. "Why weren't you picking up calls?"I walked to sit at the desk and Gideon moved further away from Elaine to stand by the desk. "I already told you that I was with Wade," I calmly said. I knew that Elaine was agitated and having Gideon around did not help much. "Ma was worried still. The media has been going crazy and Vera Bexley has been doing interv

The next day flew by and by evening Elaine was pacing up and down the west wing while I tried to reach Gideon. He picked up on the fourth ring. "Where the hell are you?" "We had a last-minute meeting with Pa's office. Please proceed without me. I will join you later," Gideon said and disconnected the call. Elaine huffed and muttered, "Why the hell did he not communicate this earlier?""He has been trying to secure a meeting with the Secretary of State about Ma's issue," I informed Elaine."Okay, let us go. I'm so nervous," Elaine whispered, making me laugh. "Why do you sound like a bride going to meet the groom's parents?" I jested. "Tsk, I bet you were as nervous as I was when you visited the Malkiel villa the first time," Elaine laughed. We were laughing as we walked out of the west wing and found Ma by the foyer all dressed up and waiting."You said we are going for dinner, right?" Her eyes sparkled. We sped off on the Valletta roads and arrived at the Malkiel villa.
