All Chapters of The CEO's Love: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

 "Amanda? Amanda!" Amanda started, her father's voice finally bringing her back to the present. She wasn't dreaming. Lucas Erikson, the man she fucked for an entire week at the resort, was standing before her. And, apparently, he was the new CEO of the company. Those grey eyes pierced into her. A smile appeared on his lips. He stuck his hand out. "Good evening. It's nice to meet you, Amanda." Amanda's eyes flitted from his outstretched hand to his face. Was this a joke? Aware of her father's worried look and the observing executives around them, she forced a smile onto her face. She accepted his hand. There was nothing ladylike about her squeeze. "Hello, nice to meet you." Her father beamed at the successful introduction. "Lucas formerly worked at—" "Dad?" she interrupted, her f

 Amanda managed to make it to the front of the hotel without running into someone to stop her. She was leaving early and didn't want to draw any attention. Fortunately, she was able to get hold of her driver quickly. She instructed him to get her to her apartment before driving back for Tyra, since she was her ride. As the car peeled away from the hotel premises, she took out her smartphone and went online. On the search bar, she typed 'Lucas Erikson'. When the results loaded, his information was right there, on the first page. The first article was related to his latest career move:"Hotshot NY Fashion CEO Joins Lemaiyan Fits" She clicked on it. According to the article, Lucas had spent the past five years at the helm of the most successful fashion start-up in New York at the moment. He was with the company from the beginning and within a few years was able to make it a notable n

 This is crazy, Amanda thought as the two of them walked down a paved path leading to the cabins. When Lucas first came to sit with her, she had been sane enough to block any sort of sexual thought about him. Half way through dinner and two glasses of wine later, the part of her that thought rebound sex was a great idea was winning the debate in her mind. Here was a guy, gorgeous in every way, and well mannered. She was single and nothing was wrong with wanting to sleep with him. She felt she was more likely to regret not sleeping with him than doing it. How could she be with such a good looking, thoughtful guy and regret it? She stopped drinking when she started feeling excited and realised another glass would do her in. If she was going to make a move, she didn't want him to turn her down on account of her inebriation. When he asked to escort her to her cabin, she

 Amanda woke up in the middle of the night to find herself cocooned in Lucas's warmth. His tall frame spooned her smaller one, her back pressed to his bare chest. A clock on the table revealed it was 4:04am. They had gone to sleep at midnight, after three rounds of sex and some time basking in a fire Lucas made in the fireplace. She couldn't recall the last time she felt this happy and satisfied after sex. She had just gotten out of a two-year relationship, and the sex wasn't anything to complain about. However, despite the fact that she wasn't emotionally invested in Lucas, being with him felt a hundred times more explosive. Too bad she wasn't looking for anything long-term, even just sexually. Lucas seemed like the kind of man it would be easy to get attached to if she slept around with him longer than necessary. He was quite the gentleman, and he was great in bed. It would be wise to be content with the p

That day, Lucas and Amanda stayed indoors, even after the weather cleared. Lucas left that evening once the snow was salted and mostly gone and the pavements were finally passable. The two spent the rest of the week mostly in each other's company, almost as if they had come on vacation together. They tried skating, went hiking, and camped out in the woods for two days. While they couldn't keep their hands off each other for the week they spent together, they knew that what happened in Riverside Park would remain there. Or, at least, that's what Amanda knew. Lucas never told her that he found out her identity. It was clear that if he did, it would ruin everything. There was no doubt that when she went back home and found out he was the new CEO, their relationship would take an ugly turn. But he chose not to think about that until he came to it. After his week of vacationing was done, he left Riverside Park and took a flight to the city, where his new j
