The Untamed Billionaire Fifty Eight
Asher’s POV There was a pause, then a shuffling sound on the other end. “Mr. Campbell, I…” he started but I cut him off, knowing he was just going to give an excuse now. One of the things I hated most was someone slacking off and then giving excuses to be rid of that. I just couldn't stand it at all. "No, Alex. No excuses. How could you miss something like this?" My voice was a low growl, a thin veil over my rising panic, and anger, because boy, I was really angry. I was paying him, wasn't I? Good a ridiculous amount of money at that and he didn't think he needed to deliver? "I'm sorry, sir. I had no idea she left the country. There must have been some kind of miscommunication. I'll look into it immediately," Alex's voice was apologetic, but it did nothing to cool the heat in my veins. I could almost feel my blood boiling over, but I tried not to show it too much. I was in a public place after all, and I didn’t want to be caught unaware by some lurking paparazzi. “Just fix this.”
The Untamed Billionaire Fifty Nine
May’s POV The old taxi creaked to a stop in front of a house that until a few weeks ago, was mine too, and I sighed with a shake of my head. So many things had happened in the last few weeks I had been last here for, when I still lived here and this place was mine as well. I handed the money I was holding to the cab driver, a kind old man who had asked me if I was all right when I entered the backseat with a warm smile at me, and told him to keep the change. I just wanted to do something nice for him as well, for the care he had shown me since I got behind his cab. “Thank you!” he said and I shook my head, gesturing with my hand that it was nothing. It was nothing anyway, it wasn't as if I bought the man a house or something. I didn't even own one, so… I trailed off my thought to think about something else. Pushing the door open, I stepped out into the familiar compound, yet now distant world of what used to be my home. This was my house, my abode, my home for those two years a
The Untamed Billionaire Sixty
Asher’s POV May had walked in here looking like that part of the cake I love best when I was having it for dessert, the icing part of it. She was wearing a golden yellow beaded dress that was off her shoulders, with a ruched ruffle design. She had no makeup on, at least, none that I could see, and even at that, she looked so beautiful. The dress was hugging her body so perfectly, showing off those curves I was too angry and frustrated at her to see back then, and it ended an inch or two below her knee. Damn, she looked like my favorite food right now, but I hoped I wasn't looking at her like I wanted to devour her. I licked my lips even as she sat down in front of me looking so calm, like she doesn’t give a damn about how she was making me feel. She had this nice perfume on and I wanted to walk to her and sniff her, as I latched my nose onto her slim and elegant neck. I would even love to bury my face there while my hands roamed that perfect figure I didn't even let myself see bef
The Untamed Billionaire Sixty One
May’s POV His mouth against mine in that hot kiss was what I had been able to think about all day! It was all I could dream about even in my sleep, and I don’t even know how to stop myself. Or maybe it was because I didn't want to stop myself at all. Damn, it wouldn't leave even if I tried, that kiss was just too hot. Ever since that kiss with Asher, it's been swirling around in my head like a relentless storm, working its magic and making me fret and sweat for no reason. I couldn't shake it off; it clung to my every thought, tainted every moment with a feeling of regret and an aching desire I wasn't supposed to feel anymore. “Stop doing this to yourself, May!” I told myself mentally, but I just couldn’t muster the will to stop my brain. It seemed to completely have a mind of its own, and was the one controlling me instead of the other way around. “If only I hadn’t let him kiss me that day. If only I had just walked out or push him away when he dipped his head to kiss me. Here I
The Untamed Billionaire Sixty Two
May’s POV I decided to put my hair down and let the soft curls I had put my hair flow on my back. I made sure that I wasn’t wearing a lot of makeup, using just a brush of mascara, a darker shade of blue eyeshadow, and a pink lipstick to add color to my lips. After that, I walked to my dress to wear it. Emily and I had settled against a blue long satin dress that had a slit in front of the left side of my leg up to my upper thigh, and it was off the shoulders. It wouldn't have been my first choice because of how open and too fitted it was, but I loved that it was the one we settled on, because I didn't want to look like a joke when Asher saw me tonight. Although, I would make sure to avoid him as much as I could for the better part of the night, because it was the safest thing to do. I slipped into the dress and struggled with the zipper but after a couple of minutes, I was able to do it. Standing in front of the mirror, I looked at my reflection and tried smiling a bit to make me
The Untamed Billionaire Sixty Three
May’s POVI was wandering around the house now, thinking about what else Ellen would like to discuss with me. After she spoke to me in the drawing room, asking me the question, I had explained things but we had been interrupted by one of the domestic staff that her attention was needed.She had left me there telling me she still had a lot to talk to me about, and with that in mind, I just wasn’t in the mood for any party at all, not that I was in one before.I walked up the stairs, seeing only a few people around talking with smiles on their faces, and with glasses of white wine in their hands. It was common for people at a party to be holding one, but I was certainly going to stay clear of wine tone ght. The last thing I wanted after the episode with Ellen was getting drunk and misbehaving or say things that I wasn't supposed to say.Up until now, I hadn’t seen Asher, which was good, because I couldn’t face him now, not even when I had just talked about him with his mother.“May?” I
The Untamed Billionaire Sixty Four
May’s POV I threw my head back, and the sound of my own laughter surprised me; a flowing release that reflected off the walls of Bradley's nicely decorated office. It felt strangely liberating, yet absurd, to laugh like this when I least expected it. I shouldn’t be doing this, because it might come across as rude, so I tried to simmer down and talk to him instead. "I'm sorry," I said, still chuckling as I wiped a stray tear from the corner of my eye. "It's just... what you said, it's funny, in a strange way." I wasn’t kidding at all, that was how what he said sounded to me, so strange I couldn’t even hold my laughter back the second time. Bradley's expression softened, a curious tilt to his head. "Why is it funny to you, May?" he asked me, squinting his eyes. Although, Bradley still looked serious, I felt like laughing again, but I pushed the urge down. "It's just that..." I paused, collecting my thoughts. "If what you said was true, and somehow I've made him soft, gotten throu
The Untamed Billionaire Sixty Five
May’s POVThe chime of a glass being tapped with a silver spoon pulled me back to the present where I stood at the bar.Asher was about to speak, I realized when I saw he was the one that did that. He stood there with a very handsome but cold look on his face, and I just wanted to walk to him and wrap my hand around him.Damn, why was he this gorgeous? He was so handsome and he knew it, and he let it show to everyone he was aware of that fact.My heart skipped a beat as I watched him take the stage, his presence commanding attention. He had that effect on people, or maybe it was just on me, because I really couldn’t look away.But he did caught people’s attention, drawing them in with just a glance or a few words. If he were to smile at them, then it wouldn’t even matter what he was saying anymore, because he would have drawn them in.He started to thank the guests for their contributions and spoke of future endeavors. I couldn't help but admire him, even if our personal connection wa
