"Do you know I dreamt of us last night? Do you know what we were doing?" Caleb, asked rubbing slow circles on her hand."Let me guess," She said teasingly. "We were happily married with children and still more in love than ever?"An abashed smile curled up Caleb's lips when he obviously realized he'd used that line on her before. "What, you had that dream too? This just goes to prove my point that we're soul mates. Can I see you outside work?"Nostrils flaring, Luca glared between his friend and his PA while they flirted with each other, but they payed him no heed. This wasn't the first time they were flirting, and normally, Luca would've just been annoyed. But today, his jaw ticked and the muscles in his biceps pulsed with tension and another emotion he was too scared to admit. Especially after all that had happened between him and Skylar last night."Of course." Skylar replied to Caleb's plea."Really? When? Where?" The man's eyes gleamed with excitement and anticipation.Skylar st

Sitting on a swivel stool at the counter of a nightclub, Luca spun around to face the dancefloor, taking in the lewd scenes to see whether it would help him purge out the woman who'd been infiltrating his nightly fantasies for five days straight.It only seemed to make things worse, so huffing, he swiveled round to face the barman just as he placed his order on the countertop. Luca wrapped his hand around the neck of the frigid bottle of tequila and was just about to raise it to his mouth when suddenly it was Skylar's breast he was fondling as he plunged into her deep from behind. In his imagination, anyways.Cursing loudly, he whisked the drink up and downed as much of the cold brew as possible, hoping it would quench the hot images running wild in his head and cool the fire burning in his groin.When it did bupkis to help him, he set the bottle down with a forceful thud along with a loud grunt, frustrated at all the reckless hunger gripping him. Hunger for a woman who could destroy

Burning with fury, Skylar glued her eyes to the view of the clouds whisking by swiftly instead of the infuriatingly handsome, sexy hunk who wouldn't even look at her as they rode his private jet to Atlantic City even though he'd forced her to take the seat opposite his.He'd been focusing on his laptop, ignoring her ever since the flight begun and he claimed he was trying to woo her into exclusivity with him? The cheek of it!She didn't know she'd huffed until she felt his gaze burning into her skull. "Is everything alright, Vanilla?"Snapping her head to look at him, she etched on a grimace. "Everything is okay, thank you very much. And stop calling me that!" "Jeez, why are you so hot and bothered?" A teasing smile was playing on his lips."I am not hot and bothered." She shot at him through gritted teeth as she crossed her arms on her chest and returned her gaze to the window.But she knew he was right. She was hot and bothered and she'd been feeling that way since Friday night afte

Skylar clenched a fistful of sand, destroying the sand castle she was building all alone when a loud shriek which seemed to be the loudest among the cacophony of several voices at the beach reached her ear.Looking up to find Blondie running off into the water while Luca made a show of chasing her, jealousy jutted it's grotesque head, far more sharply than Skylar would ever admit to. She hadn't known how much she hated platinum blondes until now, which said a lot about her disconcerted state of mind considering that her best friend, Ella, was platinum blonde.You have your freedom for the day. Let's just see how many guys you can fuck before the day ends.His words just before he'd gone off to gallivant rang in her head, and it made her grit her teeth so tightly she was surprised they didn't shatter. Just when she'd begun to feel her defences crumbling, just when she had been right on verge of giving in to his demands, he had to say that?Which man who wanted a woman the way he claim

a minute after Tony had left, Skylar got up and headed for the beach. Not to look for Luca, but because she needed time and the calming effects of the waves to reflect on things.The beach wasn't even half as packed as it'd been in the afternoon since it was evening. The glow of the somewhat dark sky and the crescent moon casted on the ocean made it look like shimmering swathes of jeweled silk. Skylar chose a spot on the white sand away from the shore and sat down, gazing at the sea as it crashed and fizzled on the shores.Why was it that her past was coming back to kick her in the ass? First was the situation with Ramiro, and now this.She felt a presence beside her and looked up in time to find Luca lowering to the ground beside her. His face was a carefully formed facade of impassiveness. "How many more relationships and marriages have you destroyed?"She let out a weary sigh and turned her head away from him to look back at the sea. "The last thing I need is you judging me and my
