All Chapters of Just A One Night Stand: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

The already low lights went down further and before I knew it, we were introduced to the Mayor's wife and sitting with him in his private seats for the rest of the show.This is when I let my uncle take full control and whisper his plan to the mayor as the performance started up. My head was throbbing and the music was grating against some nerve I never knew I had. I couldn't stop shifting around in my seat as the show lit up.I had to admit that this view was fantastic. We were so close to the stage but I wasn't impressed. I didn't give a single shit about ballet.However just as l was still staring, something immediately changed when she took the stage.The moment she did arrive, every person in the theater held their breath. The air left the building and ice danced across my skin. The lights flashed and she moved with impossible fluidity and grace to the trill of the music. I didn't care about ballet but I knew enough to know that this was the lead of the show. This woman was the s

| RHEA'S POV |"You can't afford not to do this , Rhea, lam sorry", His words felt like a dagger going through my back. "We all have contracts to fullfil, and this is too much money to turn down", He went on. I angled away from the dancer choreographer, Luke and crossed my hands to hold myself as if that would stop the ice freezing the blood in my veins. Even if I didn't want to hear his words. He was right."We have you set up in the skyview suite at the New York palace. It's fifteen minutes away and you have just about one hour to meet this guy on time", My eyes snapped up to Luke who was standing in the studio doorway. He drummed his fingers on the frame of the door as if he was waiting for me to say anything else. I simply nodded my head. It was enough of a sign for Luke to turn and leave.After the grueling performance tonight , I was so exhausted. The moment the curtains closed,the show left my mind and all I could think about was thinking into my bed. The other dancers had trie

When his hand stopped roaming my sides and landed on my breast , a moan slipped past my lips. This never happened at the meetings. I never enjoyed them but here l was feeling like l was in heaven. His palm on my breast was soft as he touched me, yet I could feel now just how much he was restraining himself. There was a slight tremor with in him as he held back."Do you want to go to the bedroom?", My mouth asked, and I felt like I was going on autopilot. Perhaps it was my exhaustion,or the small amount of alcohol in my system. But I knew those things mixed with Aleksander's dark allure were dangerous. His touch was winning my body over ."Fuck yes," He growled. I froze, but in the next instant he lifted me up from the couch and rose to his feet. His quick speed and calm strength impressed me. A bright blush spread across my cheeks and I wondered if he could see my resemblance to a tomato. He carried me into the bedroom where nothing but the New York City lights streamed into a darkene

I stiffened remembering it was Nikolai's contact who had connected me to Rhea that night. Ofcourse, he would remember. Clearing my throat, I clasped my hands over the desk."It just came to mind," I shrugged the topic off."How was that, by the way? The Ballerina? She danced like nobody's business,but I bet she was good on her back too. Worth the money you forked out to get her?" My first clenched when l heard his words. Although this wasn't an unusual conversation, I came from an openly promiscuous family where we didn't keep our loves lives hidden; I didn't want to hear my uncle talking about Rhea.It was ridiculous. I barely knew her. Yet my jaw clenched painfully as I glared across my desk."Yes. Worth it", l responded lastly. "Great to hear!" He clapped his hands. "Don't go around spending that kind of money each time you need a lay, though. Plenty of women will give you that for free, Aleksander. You're a good looking man, and I see how the little slice out side looks at you", H

"Very good seats," Annika mused as we settled down. She was happy but every single one of my nerves was on edge. The world was moving far too slow as we waited and waited for the performance to start. Nikolai and I had missed the first half of the show last time and my eyes were wide and ready to seek Rhea the moment she set foot on stage.All I could I think about was watching her fly over the stage. My fingers itched to pull another smoke from my front pocket, but then the lights were dimming, and the music was starting. The first act of swan lake was terrible, Rhea wasn't in at all. The entire thing was about some dumb prince, and the man prancing about the stage. It annoyed me to the point that l bounced my leg in my seat.The second act's first half was equally boring. More than anything. I was certain that prince Siegfried was a moron.Everything changed when the swan Queen was revealed. Odette, the great beauty, cursed to live as a swan by day.Rhea, the most beautiful woman I
