She didn’t care she had makeup on. She splashed cool water on her face and reached blindly for paper towel. The door to the bathroom opened and a hand put the serviette in hers and she offered a meek thank you to the person who had entered.
She looked up and saw Ares leaning against the door and she grimaced. “I’m sure the sign on the door says women.”
“It does,” he nodded, his eyes pleading. “Can we talk?”
“In a restaurant bathroom?” She sneered at him. “No. In fact, not here. Not anywhere.”
“I’m sorry.”
“You should be.” She forgot herself for a moment and shoved his chest hard, “what kind of fucking games are you playing?”
He grabbed her hands and pulled her close, his blue eyes searching hers. “I’m sorry. I panicked. In panicking, I came to a stupid conclusion.”
“What conclusion?”

The Billionaire and the Banker Drunk Text
She was fucking terrified. They were in Miklos’ club and they’d been busted and while Dimi and Darya were tough as nails, she was not. She was shaking like a leaf between her friends while Miklos and Kostas Masalis eyeballed them like they were enemies of the Laskaris family and ready to be punished for their transgressions.First, they’d said they were going to search them as if they were spies for the government and now she’d said too much admitting they were spying to find out if he was fucking a girl in the club and the girls were ready to kill her themselves. She was too drunk. Far too drunk. She’d been trying to drink the misery of her situation with Ares Winter away and too much prosecco later, she was wasted out of her skull. Her feet felt numb and her hands were sweaty. Now the girls brought up she was a virgin in front of Miklos and Kostas and the two men were staring at her as if she were an alien. It was evident Dimi for
The Billionaire and the Banker Beach Day
The contract was signed. Dimi was gone. Nothing was ever going to be the same again. All their hard work to allow them the freedom to come and go and escape the confines of their families were for naught because Dimi was gone.She and Darya were curled up on Darya’s bed with Jinx between them after crying their hearts out.“I miss her already,” Darya’s bottom lip trembled.“Me too,” Magda whimpered.“She said she wouldn’t be able to call for a long time.”“I know.” She was going to start sobbing again. She rolled to her back. “We need to get out of here.”“We can’t,” Darya moaned. “The press got wind of our address. They’ve been outside.”“At least Miklos’ guy he had stationed here called it in and they immediately sent a full team for us. Though they think Dimi is here so once they realize she’s not, the
The Billionaire and the Banker Dinner Date
She’d agreed to dinner with him. After riding multiple waves and laughing and simply enjoying the sunshine and the surf, Ares had asked her to have dinner and she’d agreed. She knew in her heart of hearts Dimi would have pushed her to go.Now she was pacing in the living room, Jinx giving her dirty looks for disturbing her relaxation and feeling her nerves creeping up on her again. Miklos had tripled the security at the house but she had let the man currently at the end of the driveway know she was expecting Ares Winter.A single knock on the door made her jump nervously and she gave one last kiss to the top of Jinx’s head and moved to open the door. She stepped outside, not quite ready to let him into their space.Ares stood there in a pale blue suit which was almost silver in color and a white shirt opened at the color. No necktie was present but he was wearing a pocket square which was a blue which was almost perfectly matching his eyes. She
The Billionaire and the Banker Walk With Me
Magda’s fingers were intertwined with Ares as they walked along the pier.Jake had grumbled about them getting out of the car and had called in three more people as back up but they were all discretely out of sight. Even Jake had disappeared from view and she was relaxing in Ares’ presence.They’d been flirty and laughing all evening and dinner had become a silly affair with Ares telling her naughty jokes to try to make her blush and her reminding him she lived with Dimi Lykiaos and nobody had a bigger potty mouth than her.Now however he was focused on another topic.“A BDSM parlor. What exactly did you do there?”“Fetish play.”He came to a dead stop, his eyes rounding incredulously. “Like what?”“Never intercourse but I had one guy who paid me a grand more than once to lick peanut butter off my body. There was a man who simply liked feet. He paid me five hundred bucks a se
The Billionaire and the Banker Threes A Crowd
Magda was sitting in Ares’ office of his building in LA on the sofa while he was in the hall outside. The only light coming from a couple of lamps were on aside from the dimly lit hall which was filtering in through the partially opened door. From what she could gather someone had used a taser on the security agent who worked the desk overnight and the other security desk who was doing rounds had made a call to Jake and then went radio silent and they couldn’t find him.Now, Magda was tucked into the office after Jake had scoped it out and said it was the safest place for them to be while his team sorted out what was happening. The door ajar she could hear Ares arguing with Jake.“We’d be equally as safe on the boat.”“Unless it was a diversion tactic and the plan is to get you away from me and the team. I can’t keep you safe if I don’t know have eyes on you and until I know what we’re dealing with, I would prefer to keep you close.”“How much longer until you complete the sweep?”“At

“I hate him,” Magda sniffed against Darya’s shoulder. She had returned from the gym, agreed to coffee with Angelo in the afternoon and was sitting on the floor in the kitchen. “Why did he call me now after I agreed to go out with Angelo?”“I’m still trying to figure out why you’re going out with a giant beefcake of a man.” Darya snickered, he’s not even close to your type.”“I’m avoiding my type. There has to be a reason all my dates wind up the way they do.” She exhaled. “How are you feeling today? Yesterday you told your parents to go fuck themselves. Any regrets?”“Not a single one.”Magda’s phone rang again and she looked to Darya.“Answer it, Mags. You’ll be wondering ‘what if’ if you don’t. You don’t have to see him or go out with him again but for your own peace of mind, answer it and then be d
The Billionaire and the Banker Never Give Up
Tuesday morning Ares was ready to pull his hair out. He’d given her the day to rethink the words she’d said to him but by this morning she hadn’t so much as texted him. Was she really so pissed off about him not calling she would end things without allowing any explanation at all?It was six in the morning and he was outside her house. Jake was distracting the security guards by arguing with them over their slack behavior and he managed to slip past them and knocked on the door. He could hear someone moving about inside and muffled speaking and then the dog yipping when he knocked again.“Magda!” he yelled her name on the other side of the door. At the very least, she was going to hear his side of the story and if after this she was truly done, he knew he had to respect her decision but he wasn’t giving up without her knowing the truth of what happened. He heard the curse from one of the women and then frantic movement, “sweeth
