Semua Bab 30 Days With My Dashing One-Night Stand Billionaire: Bab 1 - Bab 10

~LUNA~"Are you sure about this?" His deep, crispy voice rumbled through me, even though our bodies were no longer pressed against each other. We were standing in front of a hotel room, his gaze fixed on mine searchingly. "Once we go in, there's no going back." He continued when I didn't say anything immediately, allowing me to rethink my obviously stupid decision and go back."Yes," I muttered as my determined gaze met his. I was done being careful. A touch of recklessness should suffice. I was tipsy, but still in control of my reasoning. I climbed the elevator with him, knowing fully well what I was getting into. I needed to prove an asshole wrong— have wild sex. Break, if I could— since I was fragile."Let's do it." I held his gaze with a challenging tilt of my head. After a few seconds of holding mine, his gaze dipped to my lips and the intensity of it sent chills through my spine. I mentally shook my head. Maybe it was the alcohol seeping in and not the fact that his gaze was do

~LUNA~I made sure not to be there when he woke up. Not just because I didn't want him to see me after the heat of passion wore off, but because I needed to be at home earlier to help my brother pack for his first international business trip, which would last for thirty days.A friend of his had connected him to his boss, who in turn pulled strings for this trip to happen— to push my late father's company off the ground.I needed to be there before he woke up— if that would be possible.Shutting off the events of last night and willing myself to forget ever meeting and bedding the most handsome man I had met in my entire life, I jumped into the first taxi that pulled over in front of the hotel.I had already seen tons of missed calls from my brother and Mia, probably wondering whether I was alive or dead. I was already on my way home. I would deal with the calls of Mia later.Just as the taxi zoomed off, my mind zeroed in on the way he was slamming into me at a fast pace but not viole

~XANDER~All through the ride here and now sipping the champagne one of the female servers served us, I couldn't help but ask myself what the hell I was doing. The plan was to have a plate of ice cream to diffuse the heat a bit before I would take a quick dive into the bathroom to assuage the remnants with a cold bath. But here I was, sipping from the champagne flute, inside a country club I never in my wildest dreams imagined finding myself in tonight.Never had a woman had such control over me, making me change my plans overnight just by batting her eyelids and offering me a plate of ice cream. I had never given any of them that control.Just...who was this Luna that had slipped past my defense so easily, and even without my knowing?"Alexander!" The sharp calling of my name dragged me out of my thoughts. I turned immediately to face Ace. I might be a little popular—judging from a few people who were constantly waving and smiling at me from the minute we entered here— it was only A

~XANDER~The steering wheel bore the brunt of the anger and frustration swirling a graceful circle inside of me. I had decided to take the wheel so I would distract myself from the sexual heat that surged through my system as a result of my proximity to her earlier.But I didn't know that I was signing up for her and Ace to be hurdled up in a corner in the backseat, him whispering what I couldn't make out to her. My knuckles were turning white but I cared less. I had to alternate my gaze between the road and the rearview mirror. God! Xander. This couldn't possibly be jealousy, was it?Ever since I broke the news about that bastard almost raping her, Ace had gone all overprotective, even insisting that we leave early. I should have known that he wouldn't join me in the front seat, but instead perched beside Luna back there.When I averted my gaze from the road, fixing it back on the rearview, I almost pumped my fist against the steering. He wrapped his hand around her, leaning down as

~XANDER~With Andy taking me towards the direction of the study, I knew what he wanted to talk about was serious. And it was something he didn't want any ear to hear. The door of my study was soundproof, so anything done or said there never got out.We entered, with me trailing behind him. I shut the door immediately I got in and made straight for my mini-bar. I had a mini-bar both in my room and in my study. There were times I would be neck deep with work that I wouldn't want to step outside. So, if I needed liquid courage I didn't need to go far to get it.Well, that was a few months back when I still spent time here, and not in my private condominium. But I figured things would change from now on. Speaking of change, Ace had never openly argued with me, playfully or not. But what he did back there... Being so defensive and overprotective... Coupled with his comment at the office earlier today about his guest being special. It was all starting to make sense.Still mulling over that
