All Chapters of Heating Up The Billionaire's Sheets: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

"This again? Your jealous streak is starting to concern me, Bianca," Will teased, trying to make light of the matter. How did I miss this? Almost from the moment we met, I knew that he wasn't what he seemed. It never occurred to me, however, that actual thought went into this don't care, light hearted, playboy routine of his. Like all of us, Will Hunter had secrets too. "I have this problem. I think I've always had it," I began in a small voice. "This tendency to go above and beyond for people, even without them asking me to or even necessarily needing me to." The slapped-on smile faded from Will's face and was quickly replaced with an indiscernible mask. Not sure what to make of it, I considered shutting the hell up. The last thing he needed right now was to hear more of my baggage. Impulse overrode my natural instinct once more and I carried on. "Then when they show even an iota of gratitude, I confuse it fo

She pulled down her rumpled up skirt, then yanked the zipper down and shimmied out of it. I watched it float away behind her, either sides of her open blouse halfway down her arms, struggling to come off her body, bra dangling loosely around her breasts. Her chest heaved as she fumed. "I don't need your fucking pity, " I spat back, eyes fixated on her state of undress. Wet red hair flowing all around her. Her make up was a mess. Hands balled into fists, erratic stormy eyes. Despite the venom I was spewing, I could feel myself crumbling. All I wanted was her limbs wrapped around me. "Wanting the person you care about to be okay isn't pity," she said, her voice dropping low. She took a few steps forward and my chest tightened. That's right baby, come to me. Make it all better the way you have since the

In my mind's eye, I could still picture my legs tangled up with Bianca's. Us between the sheets, her warm body tucked safely into my arms, as we caught the first few winks of sleep since this nightmare began. That was my reality up until thirty minutes ago. Bianca's voice dragged me back into the here and now. "Where's my sister, Merida? So help me, if you've lost her—" "Baby, Bianca, calm down," I said, wrapping an arm around her waist as she charged at Merida. Merida visibly flinched, even wheeling her chair away. "I'm calm," Bianca said, her eyes darting at Merida manically. I gave her a look that said sure you are as my arm tightened around her middle. "She's a fucking grown ass woman. You can't lose a damn adult," Merida sassed. As anticipated, Bianca made her second attempt at lunging at Merida, which I swiftly prevented once more. "Let me go. I'll have her talking in no time," Bianca ins

My palm was red from punching my fist into it as we all nervously crowded around Olivia's tablet to watch Britney's press conference. Fuck, Britney looked nervous and her cheeks were a deep pink. Was she drunk? I couldn't imagine how she would, but Britney had a knack for making bad situations worse. As I readied my fist to stuff it back into my palm again, Will slipped his hand into mine, rubbing small circles into my palm. He didn't look at me, didn't say a word, but I knew he was letting me know that everything would be okay. "What Jason said in the video is true, in case there was any doubt. The woman in the photos and video is not Bianca Hastings, it's me," Britney blurted out. The press started yelling questions at a flustered Britney, until she pointed at someone in the crowd. "Is Bianca Hastings your twin?" the reporter asked. "Yes," Britney ans

The days leading up to the launch dragged by slowly. Harmon had Will's schedule packed so full that we hadn't seen each other since the day of Britney's press conference. After seeing Will every day for over a month, not seeing him for the last two weeks made me … uncomfortable, for lack of a better word. It was the strangest thing. I had never felt anything like it before. He made a point of checking in with me every night before he went to bed. While I looked forward to the thirty to sixty minutes that I would spend on a video call with him every night, it just wasn't the same. When launch day finally came, I had to keep my distance from Britney so as not to gouge her eyes out. Will didn't want to distract from the airline's launch by confirming our relationship publicly ahead of it. This had me a bit worried, to be honest. Something told me it was more than that, but I didn't push the issue. It didn't help knowing that he would spend the day next t
