-Vincent-

I was in a sour mood ever since my alone time with Evelyn was interrupted. We were finally getting somewhere but they just have to butt in and destroy the moment.

Evelyn and I may be bound by a piece of paper, but something had shifted between us. Something we both didn’t dare talk about. Well, not directly at least.

I took a glance at the girls who were giggling as they walked on the tarmac excitedly but my focus landed on the woman who kept bothering me more than she should.

I know that I shouldn’t want her more than what we agreed on but as time passes, I can’t help but want her more and more.

I wonder what would she say to me if she knew when my fascination with her started.

“We’re here,” Garrett announces in front of the private jet that his father gave him on his birthday two years ago. “Ladies first,” he gestured towards the girls. Who excitedly walked towards the stairs. I followed behind Evelyn, subtly elbowing Garrett who let out a grunt.

I know the seating capa

    Eve-It was my first time flying and I was so scared of so many things like our jet crashing, exploding, and the list just goes on. But all of those disappeared because of Vincent. He kept on asking me questions about so many things that I didn’t know I wanted. I hate to admit it but this is one of Vincent’s versions that I like the most. “Why do you love books so much?” Vincent asked pulling me back to the present. The look he has now is far from the look he had this morning, especially the look he had when Garrett and the rest of the gang arrived. I just wish he would look like this most of the time. “Hmmmm,” I said, thinking of a better way to explain my love for books. “Remember when I told you how my life is so different from yours?” Vincent nodded, his piercing eyes would have scared anyone but it did not scare me. I know we haven’t been together for so long, but in those days that we were, I was slowly beginning to understand him more, especially his moods. Well, at least

    -Vincent-Sin City…I know I was not in a good mood going here. Didn’t even want to be here. Well, if it’s just me and Evelyn then that’s a totally different conversation. I know that Evelyn and I had bonded over the plane ride. It was fun to know how easily I could push her buttons and watch her cheeks turn crimson or how her eyes widen whenever she was surprised or embarrassed. I also came to the conclusion that her ex was nothing but an asshole and a douchebag. “So,” Garrett said placing his arms around my neck as he looked at me while wearing that smug smile that I wanted nothing more but to erase from his face. “It seems like you are now in a good mood,” he added.“I was,” I replied not even hiding my irritation from him. “Oh, come on,” He said, still smiling smugly. “I know why you’re in that mood.”I turned to face him, and the glint in his told me that he was up to something. “It’s been a while since you got laid,” his voice low and serious. “I know that you have officiall

    -Eve-One of the worst things about being in a fake relationship is catching feelings. It hadn’t been an issue when we started this game. Vincent has always proved that he was someone I wouldn’t want to be with.I’m not even sure when it started or how. Not sure if started when he bought the bookstore for me or when saved me several times from Stephen. When I first saw him, he was naked with a woman in bed, I always thought that he was the filthiest man in the entire world. I knew that I didn’t want any piece of him at that time. But the more time I spend with him, the more I get to know him. The wall I carefully created between us slowly crumbles. At first, I tried to deny whatever it was I was feeling and dismissed it as a crush, something every other girl feels about him. Regardless of his constant mood swings, Vincent Beckett is a sight to die for. He stands six foot eleven, every girl’s ideal height with broad shoulders, buffed but not in a scary way like the bouncers you find

  • The Billionaire's Secret   Chapter 32 - Bright Lights and Alcohol

    -Evelyn-I don’t really enjoy shopping. Well, shopping for clothes, bags, or shoes, that is. I rarely go to the mall, mainly because I don’t have the luxury to do so before, but if I do, you won’t see me in department stores. You would see me in bookstores instead. I am a bookish person, and an introvert who finds her happiness staying at home, curled up in a quiet room with a book in my hand. The only time I was not doing that was when I was with Stephen. I hate that I always kept thinking about him these past few days. Well not romantically at least. It was more of a realization moment for me. Realization of how bad my choices are when it comes to men even though he was the only boyfriend that I had ever had. Well before my fake relationship with Vincent. Fake relationship, I repeated to myself, making sure that I won’t forget that first word. Lately, I can’t help but compare my relationship with Stephen versus my relationship with Vincent. I know that I shouldn’t do it becaus

    -Vincent-Finally, some peace and quiet, well at least literally. I looked at the open bedroom and watched as Evelyn slept peacefully. I saw how tired she was since we arrived in this room until she decided to join her friends for a shopping spree that I knew was not something she enjoyed. All because I pushed her too far. It was a playful teasing, kind of foreplay for me, and I know that there are times she almost gave in. But Tony was right, Evelyn is not like us. And the faster I accept that, the better.Here I was judging her ass of a boyfriend when I was doing the exact same thing but worse. I am not a romantic guy, I don’t do things like flowers, courting, endless dinner dates, or even cuddling. It’s not my style. Hell, I didn’t even do that for her.Everyone thought that I loved her and that I was heartbroken when I lost her. But what they didn’t know was that there was never an us. Sure, we were seen together and I enjoy spending time with her especially since she can sa

    -Evelyn-Vincent was gone when I woke up. Despite the little freedom and alone time I had, I was not sure if I should be glad of it or not. But as I walked around the empty penthouse suite, I realized how big Vincent’s presence was regardless if he only sat in one corner brooding over something on his phone or teasing me.We might be bound by a piece of paper, but why do I feel there was so much more? I hate being unsure. Hate stepping forward only to take three steps back. But what I hate more is the fact that I think I am falling for the guy I shouldn’t fall in love with. “No,” I said, putting a frown on Vincent’s face, “there’s one more,” I added.“Okay,” Vincent replied crossing his strong arms in front of his chest. “What is it?” He asked impatiently.“Do not fall in love with me.”I sunk onto the couch in the living room and I wiped my face with my hands. “Don’t fall in love my ass,” I cursed to myself. I know that I said that because I was so sure then that I would never

    -Vincent-I’m gonna kill Garrett. That idea has been stuck in my head all night. First, for making me leave Evelyn because he thinks he knows me more than I know myself, second for getting Evelyn so drunk that someone almost took advantage of her, third for making Evelyn sick, fourth for making us all come here, fifth for making them go shopping and making Evelyn choose this damn dress, sixth… I can’t think anymore but I can always come up with something. As much as I want to blame everything on Garrett, I know that I was more to blame than him. The moment I saw her dancing like that on the dance floor and with that asshole coming to talk to her, all I saw was red. I have never liked and hated a color as much as I do now. But I have to admit that whatever doubts I had about what it was I was feeling for Evelyn, it was long gone now. I want her.Only her and no one else. But let me remind you that wanting someone doesn’t mean that you love them. And a girl like Evelyn goes for

  • The Billionaire's Secret   Chapter 36 - Whiskey and Truths…

    -Vincent-It took a bit of my self-control not to give in.“Then take everything from me.”I could have ended this endless push and pull between us by doing it. I could have pushed her back and tied her hands on the bedpost and fuck her senseless. Take what I want and just get over it. I could have been selfish and just put the two of us out of misery. But she was drunk. Maybe not as drunk as she was in the club. Still, I am not sure if the courage that she possesses right now comes from the alcohol or from herself. “Sleep, Evelyn,” it was both a plea and an order. “You’ll thank me in the morning.” I left the bedroom and closed the room behind me harder than I should as if that was enough to relieve all of my pent-up rage. I looked at the living room and contemplated staying on the couch. But I didn’t trust myself enough not to do something stupid while staying close to her, so I left Evelyn alone once again. I hated myself for it.I knocked on the door twice and Tony opened it o

    -Vincent-I could see the determination in Evelyn’s eyes. I know that what she said was the right thing to do, but the fear in me wouldn’t just go away. I have almost lost her before, and I don’t want that to happen again anytime soon. And the person we are talking about isn’t just any person. This is Samantha. For some, she seemed like a harmless, spoiled brat. But for me and my friends, she is worse than the devil himself. I know that I could do worse, but I also know that Evelyn wouldn’t let me do that. She may call me Lucifer, but to her, I am more of a fallen angel, redeemable, and never the bad one. Little did she know that I am not that kind of person. I have always thought that I was not someone who could be redeemed. Until Evelyn came. “I am still worried that you would meet her little devil,” I state the obvious. I know that she knows what I mean, and I am really trying my best to be able to meet her halfway. She wants honesty, then that’s what I am going to give to her

    -Eve-“Yes, little devil,” he answered. “I had loved you long before I knew what love meant.”I didn’t know that he loved me. I mean, maybe a part of me did, but I didn’t really expect him to say it to me. Didn’t expect him to confess to me. I am a nobody and he is Vincent Freaking Beckett. I look at the man in front of me, and I suddenly feel awkward. Keep yourself together.I ordered myself. Not wanting to embarrass myself once again. “Are you okay?” Vincent asked worriedly. “Yes,” I replied, “but I want to leave this place.” Vincent nodded as he stood up and guided me out. He led me to an elevator that I don’t remember riding up when we had arrived. But that doesn’t really matter right now. Once we reached the basement, the door opened. Carl was already behind the wheel, waiting for us. “Carl knew about this?” I asked. “He knows most of the things about my life,” Vincent replied as he opened the door of the car for me. “And he gets paid handsomely for keeping his mouth shu

    -Eve-I couldn’t believe what the hell I was seeing. I was not even sure if this was still right. I looked at Vincent, and automatically, my thoughts of him being a good person began to waver. “If you have questions you need to ask,” Vincent reminded me calmly. “For this relationship to work, I need you to be totally honest with me. I need you to tell me the entire truth. And I need you to use your safe word if this is something that makes you uncomfortable.” It really makes me uncomfortable, especially after seeing so many films about girls taken away from their families and sold to the syndicate to be auctioned like this. “Are-,” I choked on my own question, not sure how to ask Vincent. But he was right, I need to be honest because I want him to be honest. I need to know the truth. “Are they girls who are kidnapped?” Vincent blinked at me several times as if he wasn’t sure if he heard me right. “Kidnapped?” He repeated. “Yes, kidnapped. You know, like those girls who are drug

    -Eve-When Vincent promises something, he delivers. I was in heaven after Vincent gave me what I asked for. I could hear people moving around us as I caught my breath. My body was still convulsing as Vincent gently cleaned me up.“That was…” I started to say, but was too out of breath to finish. “Mind blowing.” I could see the proud smile he was wearing even though he was trying his best not to show it to me. He let me rest and as I look up, that’s when I saw a roof on top of our booth. Now it make sense, the button that Vincent pressed before he proceeded on fulfilling his promise was for the roof and the blinds. With the lights on, I could clearly see that our booth was different from those below us. The booths below had curtains, while ours was like a cubicle with thick walls. It was like a small room in a house, giving us all the privacy we needed to do whatever the hell it was that we wanted. After Vincent was sure that I was cleaned, he sat on the bed-like couch but didn’t

    -Eve-I don’t know where I got my courage from. I’m not even sure why I suddenly became so bold.“Make me cum.”I thought I would be embarrassed for saying it, for even thinking about it. But I didn’t feel that way. Vincent never made me feel that way.“Is that what you really want?” Vincent pulled me closer to him, there was no doubt in the way he asked me. It was as if he were asking for permission. As if my opinion and answer matter.“Yes,” I replied, almost out of breath. I didn’t have to ask Vincent twice. I saw him press a button, although I don’t know what it does. Vincent’s mouth crushed into mine with so much hunger that everything around us faded away. “I missed you,” Vincent whispered as his hands roamed my body like her couldn’t get enough of me. “I missed you, too,” I said, out of breath as Vincent continued to kiss and caress me. He pulled out my breast out of my clothes and and suck at each one of them. I moaned, unable to control the pleasure I was feeling. The know

If you are sensitive to this topic, please skip this chapter. Evelyn hasn’t said the safe word yet. Ever since we walked in, she has been quiet and observing. I saw the way she looked at each of the rooms that we stopped by. There was no judgment in them. I know that Evelyn is just seeing the beginning and not yet the dark side of it. As much as I want to confirm to myself that there was a big chance for her to accept me as a whole. I couldn’t do that. Not until she sees the last room of this place.The hardest part of this process isn’t showing her the lifestyle that I've gotten used to. The hardest part in this process is letting her see it as something positive and not look at me like I was a pervert. She glanced at me once in a while, and I could clearly see the internal battles behind her eyes, but she never said anything. I don’t

I just didn’t know that he was that different. “Breathe, little devil,” Vincent whispered. Sending chills down my spine. I exhaled the breath I didn’t know I was holding as I let the view in front of me unfold. I don’t know how to describe what I was feeling right now. Not sure if I could even find the right words. All I know is that this isn’t something I was expecting. “You have the power over everything, little devil,” Vincent reminded. “You have the power to stop everything; all you have to say is your safe word. If this makes you uncomfortable, all you have to do is say your safe word.”A part of me was tempted to do just that. Part of me thinks

    -Eve-I don’t know where we are going. I don’t know what is happening. Because I did not see anything, I didn’t know why they had to wear this black cotton cloth over my head. When he placed it over my head, I almost panicked until he slapped my ass playfully. I am not panicking right now because I can feel him beside me. I can smell him beside me, and I am not sure if it was because of the black bag over my head or if it was because I miss Vincent, but every movement he makes just heightens my anticipation. “Is this cloth really necessary?” I asked. “Yes, little devil,” he replied. The low tone of his voice sent a shiver down my spine. It was sexy, it was hot. I felt my pussy clenched. I felt the car we were in stop, but we didn’t get out of the car yet. Instead, I heard hushed whispers, but I couldn’t make out the words that they were saying. The suspense is killing me. “So, this is the girl that won Vincent Beckett’s heart,” a woman with a thick accent said. Although I am no

    -Vincent-I know that we’re stepping on unknown ground. I know that I am pushing my luck. But that silent whisper at the back of my head wouldn’t stop telling me to take the chance. To take the risk. But my friends are afraid. That’s the reason why they are here now. I understand where they are coming from, and I have already pushed this idea to the back of my mind so many times. So afraid of what the results might be. So afraid that I might lose the only person who made me realize that my heart was actually beating.But I don’t want to hide from her anymore. I want to have Evelyn as a whole. I want to have everything that she could give me. Even those parts of her that she’s afraid for me to see. Which is why I am pushing for this. I want her to see the worst of me and hope that she will be able to accept it. “Okay,” I finally relent, “We will go now, but before we leave, I want you to give me a safe word.”“Fuck!” I heard Garrett say, but I never tore my eyes from the fiery wom
