It was a photograph. A very old photograph.

Four years old. The day they started dating. James was smiling. She was smiling.

Neither of them looked perfect. Neither of them cared. Under the picture was a single message.

I miss us.

Queen stared at it. Then another message arrived. I miss the girl who believed in me before anyone else did.

Another. Good night, Queen. She swallowed hard. Because he always knew exactly what to say.

Exactly. And that was the problem. Ava returned carrying two bowls.

  • The Billionaire's Curvy Prize   SHE EARNED IT

    Queen and Ava arrived at T&B with a strange sense of calm. James's visit was still somewhere in the back of her mind.His demand. His assumption that she would come running back. His sudden talk about a wedding that didn't even have a ring attached to it.But she wasn't going to let him ruin her day. Not today. She walked into the office beside Ava."Coffee?" Ava asked. "Definitely." They had barely reached their desks when Queen noticed Melissa standing near the conference room.She was holding a folder. And she wasn't alone. Two junior associates were listening to her.Melissa noticed Queen. Her smile disappeared almost immediately. "Queen."Queen nodded. "Morning." Melissa looked at the folder in her hands. "So how is the Harbor View presentation going?"Queen stopped. "Going well." "Interesting." Ava glanced at Queen. There was something in Melissa's voice.Queen noticed it too. "I'll be presenting the acquisition brief." Melissa gave a small laugh."Right. Melissa opened the fold

  • The Billionaire's Curvy Prize   RING THAT NEVER CAME

    The next morning came. Queen was halfway through fastening her earrings when the doorbell rang.She glanced at the clock. "Who is that this early?" Ava was in the kitchen, pouring coffee."Probably security." The bell rang again. Then again. Ava frowned. "Whoever it is, they're impatient."She walked toward the door. Queen picked up her handbag. Then she heard Ava's voice."What are you doing here?" Queen froze. She knew that voice. James. Her stomach tightened.She stepped out of the bedroom. Ava was standing in the doorway, blocking most of the entrance.James stood on the other side. His hair was slightly messy, his jaw tight, and there was an unmistakable irritation in his eyes.His eyes moved past Ava. The moment he saw Queen, his expression hardened."There you are." Queen stopped. "James." "I've been calling you." "I know." "And?" Queen said nothing. James looked at Ava."I need five minutes with my girlfriend." Ava didn't move. "Then talk to her here." James' eyes narrowed."T

  • The Billionaire's Curvy Prize   THE SEAT AT THE TABLE

    The next morning, Queen arrived at T&B earlier than usual. She had barely settled behind her desk when Richard's assistant appeared at the doorway."Mr. Harrison wants to see you." Queen looked up from her laptop. "Now?" "He said immediately."She nodded. "Thank you." She saved her work and picked up her notebook. As she walked toward Richard's office, she reminded herself not to overthink it.Yesterday had gone well. George had made it clear that he wanted her involved in every Harbor View meeting.That didn't mean Richard had suddenly changed his mind about her. If anything, she suspected the opposite.She knocked. "Come in." Queen entered. Richard was standing beside the window, reading through several pages.He didn't ask her to sit. "Close the door." She did. Richard turned around. "I spoke with Williams Hospitality this morning."Queen waited. "They want the next phase of Harbor View moved forward." "All right." "You'll be handling the preliminary coordination."Queen nodded. "I

  • The Billionaire's Curvy Prize   WHAT MATTERS 

    Queen was still smiling when she walked back into T&B. She didn't notice it at first. The moment she stepped into the office, she felt the difference. The place was quieter than it had been that morning.She set her handbag down and checked the documents she had brought back from Williams Hospitality.The meeting had gone well. Better than well, actually. George had approved several of her recommendations.But somehow, that wasn't the part of the afternoon she kept thinking about. It was the lunch.The conversation with George. The way George had looked at her when he told her about his Grandma, so casual.The way he'd held her hand before she got into the car. Queen shook her head. She had work to do.She picked up the Harbor View file and headed toward Richard's office. She knocked once."Come in." Queen opened the door. Richard was behind his desk, reading through a document.He looked up. "You're back?" "Yes, sir." "How did the meeting go?" Queen stepped inside."It went well."

  • The Billionaire's Curvy Prize   LUNCH

    The drive to the restaurant took less than twenty minutes. Queen had expected George to take her somewhere close to Williams Hospitality.George's driver was waiting outside when they stepped out of the building. Queen slowed for half a second when she saw the black sedan.She had expected them to walk somewhere nearby. Apparently, George Williams does not do less.He opened the rear door for her. "After you." Queen hesitated. "Thank you." She slipped inside.George followed. The door closed quietly behind them. As the car pulled away from Williams Hospitality, Queen glanced out the window.She still wasn't completely sure what she was doing. She had come to Williams Hospitality for a meeting.She had expected questions, and another round of Harbor View discussions. She hadn't expected lunch with the billionaire himself.George sat across from her, looking completely at ease. His phone rested in his hand, but he wasn't looking at it.Instead, his attention was on her. Queen noticed. "

  • The Billionaire's Curvy Prize   DON’T FALL

    Queen closed her notebook. The room had gone quieter. Lucas was still reviewing something on his tablet while George leaned back in his chair, watching Queen gather her papers.She stifled a yawn. George noticed. "You tired?" Queen immediately shook her head."No, sir." He raised an eyebrow. "That was a very convincing yawn." She covered her mouth."I've had a long day." "It's barely afternoon." "Exactly." George smiled.Queen reached for her pen. "Are we finished?" "For now." "Okay." She started gathering the documents.George watched her for a moment. Then he said casually, "Let's have lunch."Queen looked up. "Lunch?" She gave him a confused look. "I promised my Grandma to have lunch and not overwork myself.""Okayyy." "Then why are you telling me, sir?" "Because we're going together."Queen shook her head. "No, we're not." George's eyebrow lifted. "Why?""Because I'm here for a meeting." "The meeting is over." "I'm here to work.""And you're hungry." Queen stared at him. "I am not
