41. You are a devil!

Louis’s POVI smiled like an absolute fool while watching her eat the pastry I had ordered for her. I still don't know why I did it. I just knew that giving her something she liked felt good. Almost selfishly good. Like I was rewarding myself instead of her.Seeing her smile does things to me that nothing else does. She looks softer when she smiles. More beautiful when she is not sulking or fighting me. I could stare at her like that for hours and still not get enough.But the punishment was not over. Not even close. And she had no idea what was waiting for her.My innocent little bird was busy making notes during the meeting, eyes focused on her laptop, posture proper, pretending like nothing was wrong. That was when I pressed the button.Her reaction was instant.She dug her nails into my thigh the second she felt the vibration, breath hitching sharply. I bit back a smile and kept my face neutral, eyes fixed on the presentation screen like I was reviewing numbers instead of watching

42. He hits better!

Lisa’s POVI groaned and rolled over the soft surface. Waking up from sleep never felt this hard. It felt like I had overdosed on chocolate, heavy and slow, like my body refused to cooperate.I yawned and pushed myself up, lazily rubbing my eyes. That was when I saw Louis at his desk, focused, sleeves rolled up, posture calm like nothing unusual had happened.Reality hit me all at once.I remembered where I was. I remembered everything.His words echoed in my head again.“If you didn’t realize it already, let me tell you that you climbed on me without protection.”Panic rushed through me so fast that my chest tightened. It took a few seconds before my brain caught up and reminded me that I was on birth control.“I have it under control.” I murmured to him.Relief washed over me and exhaustion followed right after. My body felt loose, spent, and warm. I hadn’t even realized when I had fallen asleep, but Louis’s jacket resting over my shoulders told me he had made sure I was comfortabl

43. You are not my destination!

Lisa’s POVI scratched my head. I hadn’t felt this panicked even when I signed the contract with Louis. Packing bags right now felt way worse.What am I even supposed to pack? I have clothes, but will they look right? I don’t know where we’re going, for how many days, or why.God, does he even understand how hard it is for a girl to pack without knowing anything about the trip?“What’s wrong?”Jack walked into my room, looking confused as he scanned the piles of clothes spread everywhere.“Are you going somewhere?”“Business trip.” I said quickly.Technically, I wasn’t lying.“Wow. Bikinis on a business trip.”He whistled mockingly.“Come on, Liz. You’re a terrible liar. Just tell me you’re going out with your boyfriend.”“I don’t have a boyfriend, Jack.”I kept folding clothes, avoiding his eyes.If these dresses didn’t match whatever work Louis had planned, then God bless his credit card because I’d be shopping there.“You have love bites on your neck and you can’t even walk proper

44. The vacation!

Lisa’s POVRich people have different kinds of obsessions. Like my boss, he is obsessed with having meetings in the most unbelievable places.I had no idea he owned an island. And not just any island, but a stunningly beautiful one where only rich people are allowed to enter. It is his private property, and the houses here are given only on rent. So technically, he is the landlord of rich people.The rent alone is probably equal to my lifetime savings. And then there is his villa, which is completely out of reach even for the people living on the island. A private, heavily protected villa with its own private beach.He is really something. My jaw was on the ground the entire journey. This man is crazy rich, and suddenly it made sense why he didn’t even bat an eye when he gave me all that money. For him, it was like taking a drop from the ocean.I glanced at him. He was still on a call, walking beside me casually, his hand resting on my butt as if it was the most normal thing in the wo

45. Surfing in excitement!

Louis’s POVI was in heaven. That sexy neck was just the beginning of something passionate, but my mother had to ruin it.She is lucky that I can’t kill a family member.Lisa was frozen in shock. She probably wasn’t expecting anyone to witness us like that.“Stay here,”I whispered before pushing myself away from the tree and from Lisa.Mom eyed her up and down with a judgmental look. Her eyes clearly saw Lisa as a potential threat.I can’t blame her. Lisa is a threat. To everything I have planned for my future and my empire.I followed my mother away from Lisa, though she could still see us from where she stood.My mother made an annoyed sound when her heels sank into the sand. Typical rich lady who refuses to give up on looks, even at the cost of comfort.“What brought you here?”I asked, standing in front of her. She glanced at Lisa again.“You may not feel the mother son connection anymore, but I am still your mother. And I haven’t forgotten my place.” She said calmly. “I keep a

46. She is a fantasy!

Louis’s POVLisa looked at me like she was lost for words, and I waited for her to speak.She composed herself.“He is Siana’s friend.”Oh. That explains why she looked like she had seen a ghost.“I know you told me to leave it to you, but I was just shocked. I am sorry.”I smiled, but it felt forced.Is there something I am missing? Or maybe my suspicious mind is overworking.“I will be by the beach,” she said. “I need a walk.”She awkwardly pushed her hair behind her ear.She looks more beautiful when she is not wearing makeup. Her skin glowed under the natural light. She was wearing a light gown that moved with the breeze, brushing against her legs.“I will join you,”I said.She frowned, clearly surprised.“No.”I raised my eyebrows.“No?”She realised what she had said.“No, I mean… why do you want to waste time? Don’t you have your secret work to do?”“Really?”I looked amused.“Is that your comeback?”She tried to hide her naughty smile.“That wasn’t bad, was it?”“Ahhaa”I smi

47. A Tracker!

Louis’s POVWe sat under the dark sky that feels endless when you stare at it too long. The waves could be heard from a distance, not loud enough to interrupt us, just steady enough to remind me where we were. The breeze was gentle, cool against my skin, carrying the faint smell of salt and food. And Lisa was sitting right in front of me.She had tied her hair into a bun after getting tired of fixing it again and again as the wind kept messing it up. A few loose strands framed her face no matter how hard she tried to tame them. I had never seen her this relaxed before. There was no tension in her shoulders, no guarded expression in her eyes. She looked like someone living the best days of her life, someone who had nothing to protect and nothing to lose. Her eyes lit up the moment Peter placed the sizzling food in front of us. The sound alone seemed to wake something inside her. I chuckled silently when she dug in without waiting even a second. No hesitation, no pretending to be polit

48. The Mermaid!

Louis's POVI don't know if she knows or not but she was completely red while playing it. She visibly swallowed when I killed her pawn. Her nervous eyes met mine, and she gently unbuttoned her first button. I can win this game in two moves, but what's the fun if I don't trap my little bird slowly? After a few unbuttonings, she got used to it, naughtiness took over the nervousness. Her half shirt was unbuttoned, revealing her bikini top. Which was covering just nipples. What a sight to distract me from the game. She finally killed my pawn and I saw a little smirk on her lips before it disappeared. "Go ahead!"I ordered when she looked at me for approval. She stood on her knees and pulled my T-shirt over my head placing it aside and roaming her beautiful eyes on me. A few more moves and Lisa was out of her shirt. Sitting in a bikini which wasn't hiding anything. Her bottom were relied on thin strings. I would never understand how girls trust these weak clothes. Well, seeing L

49. Falling!

Lisa’s POVThis is the most beautiful vacation I have ever had, and I don’t think I will ever experience something like this again.I have never felt this much peace anywhere else. I don’t know if it’s because this place is beautiful or because I am here with Louis.He is so different here. Like a normal person, not that rude and arrogant boss I know. Seeing him laugh, relax, and enjoy himself feels unreal. He looks different when he laughs. Softer and warmer. To be honest, I have almost forgotten what he has done to me in the past.I am loving this version of Louis.“Where are we going?”I asked as he led me forward.“Have you done scuba diving before?”he asked, lifting me easily and placing me inside a small boat.“Yes!”I said instantly, excitement rushing through me.“I love scuba diving.”He smiled, that confident smile that always makes my heart race.“I will make it an unreal experience for you.”The boat moved slowly over the water, cutting through the endless blue. The ocean

50. Realisation!

Lisa's POVAll those moments. All that closeness. The laughter, the protection, the way he looked at me. None of it meant what I thought it did.I felt stupid. Weak. Naive for believing that this could be something more.I swallowed hard, forcing myself to breathe, to stay composed. But inside, everything was breaking apart.I was falling for a man who was never meant to be mine.And I realised it too late even though it was always in front of me.The boat stopped, and I got out. I wish it could be easier to step out of all the feelings this easily. "Congrats!"I forced a smile. "Now I'll be free from you."Louis looked at me like he knew what was going on inside me. After all, he just slapped my delusion with his reality. Thank god, I didn't confess. "Like you always wanted."There was a hint of mocking. "Like I always wanted!"I turned around, not to face him anymore. We walked back to the villa and he rested his hand on my waist like usual. I looked at him like we look at the
