“Hi kitten,” I let the words hang with just enough tease to make her scowl. I knew the pet name would provoke her, and I wanted her angry. “I’ve been expecting you.”

Her nostrils flared like she was one breath away from decking me in the face. She took a shaky inhale to rein in her temper.

“Expecting me?” she echoed. “Is that what the GPS told you? That I was headed straight for your office to shove those damn trackers down your throat?”

To be honest, I’d assumed our next conversation wo

  • The Billionaire’s Masked Obsession    CHAPTER FIFTY THREE

    LUCIANIt’s only Thursday, and I’ve already decided this week is the worst one I’ve had in a long time.I pulled my glasses off and set them on the folder in front of me, rubbing at the pressure that has been building behind my eyes all day. When I opened them again, my gaze drifted to the empty space across the desk. For a second I could almost see her fiery statue standing there again.Since she stormed out of this office three days ago, whatever small progress I thought we’ve made has gone straight to hell.The silence is the worst part. I’ve grown use to her sharp tongue and the way she’d glare at me like she wanted to set me on fire.I could handle her anger, but her new mannerism is different. She’s gone completely numb. It’s almost like she reached into her own system and flipped a master kill-switch on. She doesn’t give me the time of day anymore. If I speak, she answers with one word. Maybe two if she’s feeling generous then walks away like I’m not worth the breath.She hasn’

    LUCIAN“Hi kitten,” I let the words hang with just enough tease to make her scowl. I knew the pet name would provoke her, and I wanted her angry. “I’ve been expecting you.”Her nostrils flared like she was one breath away from decking me in the face. She took a shaky inhale to rein in her temper.“Expecting me?” she echoed. “Is that what the GPS told you? That I was headed straight for your office to shove those damn trackers down your throat?”To be honest, I’d assumed our next conversation would be about Saturday night, about the lines we’d crossed and the mess I’d left her in; not fucking trackers.I gave a casual shrug and leaned against the edge of my desk. “I wouldn’t know that, since you never got around to using it.”I’m still impressed. Surprised, even. Those prototypes were top-of-the-line; they weren’t supposed to be detectable by anyone without a knowledge of the mechanics and I’m curious to know how she got that figured out.“Lucian.” My name sounded like a curse on her l

  • The Billionaire’s Masked Obsession    CHAPTER FIFTY ONE

    CORINNEI’ve had years to perfect the art of avoidance, so sidestepping Lucian yesterday and again this morning was effortlessly a piece of cake.Do I regret what went down that night? Fuck no. Not even a little.It’s been far too long since I let myself crave pleasure, let alone actually give in to it, and I wasn’t about to beat myself up for finally indulging.Hands down, it was one of the most noteworthy experiences of my life. But here’s the thing—I don’t care about Lucian enough for his cold exit to gut me afterward. Not really. If he’d mistakenly offered a glass of wine and a deep conversation after that, I would’ve kneed him in the balls.We’re both adults. Adults who know exactly what they want, and most importantly, we’ve already established the fact that we hate each other’s guts with a burning passion.So yeah, avoiding him wasn’t cowardice. It was about sidestepping the suffocating awkwardness of a ‘morning after’ that clearly shouldn’t have happened. And I was secretly re

  • The Billionaire’s Masked Obsession    CHAPTER FIFTY

    LUCIANI stood under the freezing shower pounding on my back with my hands fisted against the glass. The sting of the water didn’t help, nothing cooled the heat clawing through me. I fucked up and there’s nobody to blame for that except me.Control has never been my weakness as I’ve spent years building a fortress around my emotions, yet she’d managed to unravel me with nothing more than a silly glare and a filthy suggestion.I lost that control.Were blowjobs ever that good, or was it just her?Was it the way she looked up at me like she was daring me and surrendering at the same time?And did it really have to be at the very cusp of my release that my brain realized it was a mistake?I nearly lost myself in her, nearly made a mistake, nearly spilled into her mouth like a desperate boy.Of course, I had followed her to the club hours ago.But when I got there and saw her on stage, lights flashing over her skin, music thundering through the room as she laughed and moved freely, somet

  • The Billionaire’s Masked Obsession    CHAPTER FORTY NINE

    CORINNE“Get on your knees.”The command dropped like my high school grade. ‘No.’ My mind hissed, because there’s no way I’d willingly do something Lucian ask of me without a fight. But my body was already betraying me.I’ll regret this. I’ll wake up tomorrow and want to scream myself to an early grave, but right now? I’ll put the blame for this wanton behavior on the single shot of tequila still burning in my veins, and on the agonizing amount of horniness riding through my body.Fuck… I shouldn’t.I know I shouldn’t, but the floor met my knees with a mocking sound.Suddenly, I’m eye-level with the unmistakable tent in his trousers. My mouth went drier than a desert and it took every ounce of my fading sanity to swallow and not pounce on him.I craned my neck back to look at him only to find him already staring down at me, his dark eyes raking over my face with a hunger that looked a lot like anger.“Tell me,” he said in a voice pitched low and rough that made my core pulse. “What d

  • The Billionaire’s Masked Obsession    CHAPTER FORTY EIGHT

    CORINNEIt was already pushing 3 am when I tiptoed my way into the house and eased the front door shut behind me slowly. I stood there for a moment, listening for movement but the entire place was drowned in darkness and still silence, a clear indication that everyone was still in bed.For the hundredth time, I was grateful the staff didn’t stay in this mansion. If they did, I would’ve had it hard trying to sneak pass a dozen watchful eyes, which would have still ended up in a disaster.I slipped off my heels and held them in my hand, padding across the marble floor in my bare feet as I crept up the grand staircase.My mind was a whirlwind of worst-case scenarios.Lucian will literally kill me if he finds out I left.Or worse, since killing would be quick, he’d probably lock me inside and throw away the key. Keep me tucked away somewhere high and unreachable like Rapunzel, except my hair isn’t nearly long enough to be useful so I’ll just be stuck waving helplessly out the window while
