Semua Bab Desire and Danger; A Billionaire's Game of Lust and Power: Bab 1 - Bab 10

As I strolled through the foyer of my art studio after finishing a tutorial session with some college students on painting, I heard footsteps running my way. It's been three years since I graduated and traveled to the big metropolis, New York, to start working with a small-time art company.I truly needed to get away from some of the drama from my background, and I had no choice but to run. As a small-town kid from an artistic family, I can't help but question why I selected art as a job and a course to study in school, but one thing I do know is that I really enjoy what I do."Lisa, hold up," yelled the voice, which sounded extremely familiar as I turned to validate my guess or, better yet, find out who was calling out to me."Will, oh my goodness, how did you find me here, ho...ho...how did you get here," Lila exclaimed, her smile beaming across the foyer, revealing her very white teeth and well-rounded cheeks, a gorgeous lady she truly was."You haven't lost your touch with this yo

Lila's first week at the mansion was a whirlwind of excitement and discovery. Every day brought new challenges and new revelations as she worked on the commissioned piece and explored the sprawling estate.Alexander was a demanding boss, but Lila found herself enjoying the challenge of pushing herself to meet his expectations. There was a sense of exhilaration in being around him, like she was on the brink of uncovering something incredible.As the days turned into weeks, Lila began to see a different side of Alexander. He was more than just a mysterious billionaire with a dark past – he was a complex, multifaceted individual with a sharp mind and a wicked sense of humor.Lila found herself drawn to him more and more, despite the fact that she knew their relationship was both forbidden and dangerous. There was an undeniable chemistry between them, a spark of electricity that crackled in the air whenever they were together.But as much as Lila wanted to explore that connection, she cou

Soon Lila discovers that the business trip was actually just a business trip to seal a deal and sign some cheques, drink champagne and discuss further business opportunities around art. This meeting was in a luxury hotel and I was always standing beside Alexander like a personal assistant at all times. “Am sorry I had to bring you out of the studio to this meeting” Alexander said as he leaned down towards her ear and whispers. “Lila gave a weird look and followed up with a smile, not a problem she said” if this is part of my work with you then I should as well get used to impromptu opportunities like this, she added. Alexander looked at her with a mild lustful eye as though he was about to do something funny, he walked away from Lila saying “thank you for accompanying me here again, but we have to leave tomorrow so you continue with your work” and the lights faded off. As Lila made her way back to her quarters after a long day from the previous trip, her mind was spinning with que

Lila couldn't resist the magnetic pull she felt towards Alexander. Despite her reservations about his darker side, she found herself drawn to him more and more each day. They spent their days working together on the art project, discussing their passions, and exploring the city. One day, Alexander surprised Lila with tickets to a private concert. As they entered the venue, Lila was struck by the opulence of the space. The walls were adorned with gold leaf, and crystal chandeliers hung from the ceiling. They made their way to their seats, and as the lights dimmed, Alexander took Lila's hand in his. The music began, and Lila was swept away by the beauty of the performance. She glanced over at Alexander and saw the intensity in his eyes. In that moment, she felt like he was the only one who truly understood her. As the concert came to an end, Alexander leaned over and whispered in Lila's ear. "I want to show you something," he said, his breath warm against her skin. Lila nodded, and th

The morning after their passionate encounter, Lila woke up feeling a mix of emotions. She couldn't deny the chemistry between her and Alexander, but she also couldn't shake the feeling that there was something sinister lurking beneath the surface of their relationship.As she got dressed, she noticed that Alexander was already up and dressed as well. He looked serious and preoccupied, his mind clearly elsewhere."Is everything okay?" Lila asked tentatively.Alexander turned to her; his expression unreadable. "I'm not sure," he said slowly. "I have a meeting today that could potentially be very...problematic."Lila's heart sank. She kept asking herself why there was always one problem or issue with Alexander and his business associates. Yes, the world of art can be a serious affair when money got involved and more interesting when it is a rare piece, but she didn't know how to help him. "What can I do?" she asked, feeling helpless.Alexander sighed, his eyes flickering with emotion. "J
