BECCA POV After mom had finished with the emotional blackmail, we managed to fry the rest of the duck meat together, got everything together for a hearty meal, served the dishes on the table and mom had gone out of her way to even get a rose on the middle of the table. I smile at her in appreciation.The front door clicked opened and I knew Colin was here, so I took off my apron and walked out of the kitchen. He was already giving mom a hug and kissing her cheek. Oh...ok. I'm here guys! And this is awkward."Hey, Colin" I break their little romance. The older guy smiled at me before coming to hug me."Hey Becca, glad you could make it. Your mom had been dying to see you all week""Oh, has she?" I glance at mom who was red in the face, she then lifts her arm to pat her cheeks lightly."Yes, she h

JACOB POVI have a hard time concentrating on anything I'm doing because my mindis on Becca. That dress! Fuck! It taunted me to see her in, the way it clings to her body, holding her perfect curves and her tight ass. Instantly I feel that familiar ache of want, I'm already hard but I don't want to come off desperate. I reach into my pants to adjust myself.But then she's at a party all by herself. She's with Bailey, I know, but Becca does what Becca wants. And who was that Reid guy she talked about? His name didn't ring a bell to me and I certainly need to browse him up, only I don't have his surname. Gah!. Just a friend? I have a hard time believing that. Becca could get any man wanting her in that dress she wore.Curiosity is eating me out. Curiosity killed the cat. But I'll die happy if I knew Becca wasn't grinding against a total stran

BECCA POVI squint when I see so many emails pop up on my laptop and I do a full rotation with my chair. About a few hours ago, my recent designs had sold out to even in small boutiques they were shipped to. It seemed that when my four major dressed sold out, the others fell into line and people started buying them. I proudly walk into boutiques knowing some clothes are my designs. I'm living the dream. I even took pictures with a fan of my dress yesterday at the mall. I was with Bailey and we were shopping for some maternal gowns for her. That's it! My new design should be based on maternal wear. Pregnant women would appreciate that so well. Pregnant with style. Fucking awesome."Uh...hello!" Niki knocked on my door, her eyes moving around my office. Even Nikki has secretly become a fan of mine. She seemed to talk to me often, throw appropriate comments and even smile at me.

BECCA POV Jacobs left hand rest on the lower part of my back as we walk out of the restaurant. It's based on the middle floor of the hotel so we're either taking an elevator down or taking one up. When we reach the passage, he stops and looks at me, I see that usually flare of desire in his eyes and I'm sure mine mirrors his. Who was I kidding thinking we were going to take baby steps. It had never happened in the history of us and it never will."I have a room in the hotel if you'd like us to go there...or we could drive back to my place" he throws the suggestion out and I fiddle with my fingers."Um...home," I say and he nods before walking us into the elevator. We're not the only ones or Jacob would've kissed me against the wall of the moving box."You good, love?" He asked me and my stomach flip in both delight and lust at the endearment Love.

Jacob POVPiper greets me at the airport with a small smile on her face. She's dressed smartly in a dark pencil skirt and grey shirt as always."Welcome home Mr. Fox," she said before taking my suitcase from me. I rushed back to Baltimore to attend some business meetings besides doing them on zoom, carry out projects, and what needs to be carried out fast because I'm heading back to New York today. There's no way in hell I'm letting Becca sleep all by herself, she's been staying with me for a whole week now since the incident and boy am I glad to have her near me most of the time. The other reason I'm also here is to confront Claudia.My PA informed me that she was in the Bahamas until yesterday which means I can see her before I leave, and confront her about the incident back in New York."Have the first meeting ready, I'm going b
