"Nikita Simon Set to Expand Business Empire from your hair to your home?Nikita Simon is reportedly set to expand her business empire by branching out into "Home and Lifestyle" products. "For her, it's the next logical step when she thinks about expanding her businesses," a source exclusively shared with Page Nine.Another source tells us that the Beauty entrepreneur wants to "help people feel good in their homes and in their bodies." This is an interesting move by the notoriously private Simon. It's not yet clear how she intends to tie this in with her existing businesses.There's no word yet on just when she'll make an announcement but we're confident it'll be sometime this Spring.Can this hair guru become a homemaker?Only time will tell what she has in store for us. Perhaps she'll be announcing a lifestyle blog (à la Boop and Goosh). Perhaps this will finally give the public an insight into her mysterious personal life –""Please stop," Gemma groaned from her seat on the cou
The Billionaire's Promise Chapter 2: A Rude Awakening
Luca groaned in pain as the room filled with light, jolting him out of his sleep and into a monstrous hangover."Get your a*ss up!" his mother barked from the general direction of his feet."What are you doing in my room, Mom?" he croaked weakly, his eyes squeezed tightly shut.She snorted and pushed his feet aside, knocking them off his spacious couch. "If only you'd made it that far."He cautiously cracked his eyes open, squinting against the bright light. Though his vision was still quite blurry, he could make out the unimpressed form of his mother standing in the middle of his living room."You better not make me repeat myself boy!" his mother snapped in slightly lilting English.Luca groaned in response before heaving his body upright with great effort. He knew his mother well enough to know her accent only got stronger with her emotions."To what do I owe the pleasure?" he asked hoarsely as he unsteadily got to his feet and shuffled in the direction of the kitchen.Lucia
The Billionaire's Promise Chapter 3: Fire Meet Gasoline
"How do I look?" Kit asked as she waltzed into her living room, where Gemma was patiently waiting."You look stunning!" she trilled excitedly while running her eyes over Kit's body appreciatively. "Do a turn for me!"Kit laughed and waved Gemma off as she walked across her open-plan living area, straight into her kitchen. She was secretly pleased that Gemma felt she looked good in her casual outfit - a nude bodysuit, cargo pants, and a cute pair of heeled sandals.Gemma trailed after her and planted herself on a chair in front of the kitchen counter. "Are you looking cute to impress a certain someone?"Kit snorted as she turned from the cupboard with two wine glasses. "The last thing I care about is being attractive to Luca Brooks. I have a heartbeat and that's all he really cares about."Gemma chuckled and happily accepted a glass as Kit started filling it with Rosé. "Do you even remember why you hate the guy?"Kit rolled her eyes in response. "I'm considering hypnotherapy to ha
The Billionaire's Promise Chapter 4: Feel The Burn
Kit listened along to the radio as she tried to get her nerves under control. Today was the day she and Luca were officially going to become a couple. She suddenly started to worry that it would be obvious their relationship was fake. The media backlash would be brutal if that happened.She watched the passing buildings and faces as the car rolled through the New York streets, grateful that Gemma had suggested their 'first date' happen at her place."How far away are we?" she asked Joey, her driver and bodyguard."We're a few blocks away," he told her with a chuckle. "You seem awfully antsy to get there today."Kit winced, grateful that he couldn't see her face. She liked Joey, she didn't want to keep him out of the loop, but it was better this way. Less chance for there to be any media leaks."Gemma promised she'd make lasagna tonight," Kit offered with a nervous laugh."D*mn," Joey responded with longing, "You think she'll think of Ol' Joe too?"Kit laughed and shook her head.
The Billionaire's Promise Chapter 5: Making It Official
"Umm…Miss Simon?" a mousy voice called out from the door, snapping Kit out of her focused trance.She looked up from the mock-ups she'd been studying and gestured for Dana to come in. Dana strode toward the desk and hovered in front of it awkwardly. Kit smiled at her assistant, vaguely amused. "You can sit down Dana. And I mean that in general."Dana smiled at Kit bashfully before sitting down. "There's someone here to see you."Kit frowned. "Do I have a meeting scheduled for right now? I thought I was free for the rest of the day."Dana shifted in her seat uncomfortably. "They're not - it's not a meeting. It's someone that Mr. Brooks sent."Kit gave her a confused look. "Who's Mr. Brooks?"Dana smiled at her boss in amusement. "Luca Brooks. Your boyfriend?""Oh right," Kit muttered, causing Dana to chuckle softly. "He's not my boyfriend.""So, you're not dating?" Dana inquired as she leaned forward in her seat, eager to get the gossip from the horse's mouth.Kit chuckled an
The Billionaire's Promise Chapter 6: An Impromptu Invitation
"Hey!" James called as he snapped his fingers a few inches away from Luca's face.Luca flinched and reared his head backward before scowling at James. James just smiled in amusement before arching his brow questioningly. The two of them were in Luca's office and they were supposed to be discussing ideas for their brand reveal and launch.Luca heaved a deep sigh, "I'm torn."James frowned in concern. "You're not generally indecisive. What's up? Having second thoughts about this new proposal?"They'd kept their business plans under wraps but the time to reveal it was coming soon. They both knew that they were taking a huge risk with their plans, especially Luca. 'High Life', their new THC and CBD company, was supposed to specialize in high-end products for medicinal and recreational use. They hadn't thought to branch into animal products, but James felt the proposal was compelling.Luca shook his head. "I'm thinking about inviting Nikita to the gala tonight."A surprised expressi
The Billionaire's Promise Chapter 7: From The Top
Kit hovered outside Luca's front door with a bottle of Chardonnay in one hand and the other poised to knock. She hesitated and gnawed on her bottom lip gently. This 'date' made her feel more nervous than she was comfortable with, even if they'd be discussing charity work.She had to begrudgingly admit that his charity gala had been amazing; the kind of event she'd want to throw one day. The cause was surprising, she never would have pegged him as someone who thought of others. Maybe she had misjudged him, but she wasn't ready to come to a final conclusion just yet.She took a deep breath and knocked on the door firmly, her hand tightening on the bottle of wine as she heard footsteps approaching.Luca pulled the door open and smiled at Kit warmly. "Hey, please come in."Kit smiled back at him tentatively and stepped past him, into his home. It wasn't what she'd expected for a bachelor pad as it was tastefully furnished and had a warm, homey feeling to it."Please follow me," Luca i
The Billionaire's Promise Chapter 8: Life's Joys
Kit lit up and smiled gratefully as Gemma walked into her office, two coffees in hand. She snatched the coffee off her desk the minute Gemma put it down, causing Gemma to shoot Kit an amused look as she sat down.Kit ignored Gemma and slurped her coffee with a happy groan. She savored the warmth with her eyes closed for a minute before opening them and giving Gemma her attention."Late night?" Gemma asked with a knowing twinkle in her eye.Kit rolled her eyes and flipped Gemma off while sipping her coffee with her other hand. "I went back to my place, alone, at a decent hour. I'm just feeling a little groggy after all the wine I had."Gemma perked up with interest. "You were drinking wine while discussing starting a charity?"Kit groaned internally, dreading Gemma's reaction to the news that they'd kind of had a date."Actually, he suggested we get to know each other better. So we hung out and talked a little," Kit explained in a nonchalant tone. Hoping that Gemma would match her
