All Chapters of His Million-dollar Desire : Chapter 1 - Chapter 7

CALLIE“Trent, where’s my money?” It’s only 3 A.M, but my voice is loud enough to wake the entire building. I rush out of the bathroom in a panic, nearly tripping over my own feet, my hands shaking so badly I can’t even pull my trousers up properly.I don’t care.All I care about is the missing thousand dollars.“Trent…” My voice cracks as I stagger into the livingroom, tears already blurring my vision. “Explain this to me.”I press my phone against my boyfriend’s face to wake him up. He stirs awake, acting like a sleep deprived workaholic when he's been in bed all day. He grabs a pillow, pressing it over his head, like he desperately wants to mute me. “Are you insane?” He mutters, “It’s freaking 3 in the morning.” “I don’t care,” I say coldly, “you’re not sleeping until you explain exactly what happened.”He tosses the pillow across the room, agitated. “What the hell is your problem, huh?!”“You!” I shout back. “A thousand dollars vanished from my account.” I snap, “and you expect

CALLIE I’m a crying mess when the door slams open. Landon—no hair, puffy face with a venomous tongue—pushes his way in, guiding a six foot tall man into my apartment. The supposed Mr. Hale looks at me, then at the messed up apartment. “I thought the entire society agreed that women take care of houses better, why in the world does this space look like a dumpster?”Panic floods my system. I ignore the rude man and face Landon instead. If he can give me a few days to figure this out, I’ll pay up his rent. He doesn’t have to humiliate me by bringing someone else in. I part my lips, but Landon shuts me up with the murderous gaze in his eyes. “You want to beg like always?” He asks with a light chuckle that humiliates me to the core. “That’s not going to work today, Callie. I’ll give you ten minutes to pick up your ID and a few important items, others will be thrown out.”Adrenaline shoots through my system. “I just need a few days.”“A few days?” Landon barks, spitting in my face. “Whe

CALLIE I shove him off me. Hard. I hate men like this. Men who think anything can be bought with money, just like my filthy landlord, Landon. Reaching for my purse, I grab it, then steady myself when I realize I’m about to fall. “You’re ridiculous to think every woman can be bought with money.” I take a step back, tugging my mini gown to cover myself more. “I don’t care how much you’re willing to pay…I’m not interested.” His dark eyes follow me as if he can read every thought racing in my head. “You’re walking out of here, little dove?” His voice is calm, almost teasing, like he’s already won some private game I don’t even know I’m playing. “Yes,” I walk toward the door, my heels clicking sharply against the floor. Glancing over my shoulders, I glare at him. “And you can keep your money.” He tilts his head, a smirk curving his lips. “Not so fast. I’d like to know the name of the woman who dares to tell me no.”I freeze. My pulse jumps, but I don’t bother to turn around. Clutc

SEBASTIAN Seeing the little dove again never crossed my mind. Not even once. That night, I needed a distraction, something to keep my raging monsters at bay, and she did her job quite well. She even amused me. One minute she’s docile, and the next she’s spitting fire from her heart shaped lips. Callie Parker did something no woman had ever done—she said no to me. It was supposed to rile me up, fuel me to claim her and make her say the golden word, but it only made me curious to know her. And you see that curiosity? To me, it’s dangerous. Why do I want to know the little dove? Why do I play images of that night on a constant loop in my head? Why does my cock harden at the thought of her voice? It’s why I didn’t fucking bother to find her. But now, she’s standing in front of me like a prize. Her teary blue eyes are blown wide, her breath bursting in and out as she stares at me. “Mr….Mr…” My lips twitch. “Do you owe this man, too?” The piece of shit next to me shout
