Falling Slowly Once

Katrina Jones is determined to rebuild her life on her own terms after losing both parents in a tragic accident years back. Being practical, independent, and fiercely focused on stability, she applies for a position at the prestigious Whitmore Global, in hopes it will finally give her the financial security she desperately needs and that her writing hasn't given her. But nothing prepares her for the man behind the desk. From the moment Kate walks into billionaire CEO Eric Whitmore's office, an intense and undeniable spark ignites between them. One that neither logic nor professionalism can explain. A shocking moment of weakness leads to a kiss that changes everything, forcing Eric to reject her for the job despite knowing she is qualified. When he later offers to “take care of her” instead, Kate is left humiliated and furious, determined to stay far away from the arrogant man who clearly sees her as nothing more than a temptation. Yet fate has other plans for them. Thrown together repeatedly, Kate and Eric find it impossible to ignore the powerful connection between them. As resentment slowly gives way to attraction, late night conversations and stolen moments draw them closer until kate reluctantly agrees to give him a chance. But loving a man like Eric comes at a price. Secrets, jealousy, and dangerous business rivalries threaten to tear them apart, creating a betrayal that destroys the trust between them. When Kate is framed in a compromising scandal orchestrated by someone close to Eric, he is forced to choose between believing the woman he loves or the evidence placed before him. Heartbroken and abandoned, Kate walks away. Now, Eric must confront his own mistakes and fight to win back the one woman who has ever truly challenged his control before losing her forever.

"I'm sorry." She said clearing her throat unnecessarily in embarrassment. Oh Gosh, he was even more handsome up close and personal. Gosh, and he was bigger, could her day get any more better? He smiled and she melted, inside. On the outside, she has a blank face. Wow, his smile was breathtaking "I'm Luke" He said extending his hand out to her "Lena." She said, slipping her hand into his. Perfect fit, his hand was both soft and hard at the same time, somewhere in between. "Can I get you a drink?" "I already-" Vero kicked her thigh again and she closed her eyes for a second. "I already have a drink. But yes, I would love you to get me a drink" He smiled at her again, for some reason, admired her unmoved faze. He'd seen how her friend kicked her. "Two shots of devil spring" He said to the bartender and drew a seat for himself "By the way. This is my friend, Veronica." "Hi" He nodded "Hi." "I'm Luke" "Yeah, I know" She said with a smile, said something to Lena and left. Lena did not seem to happy about it he could tell. "So, uh... What brings you here tonight? Thank you" He referred to the bartender as he set their drinks on the table. "Uh... I guess I just wanted to get out." "No". She raised a finger up, bringing her beer to her mouth. "Don't try to ask questions. I know what you want. Okay" He smiled "And quit smiling. I've seen enough of your dentals already. Okay let's get drunk first so I'll have some courage. Lets do this"

Betrayed. Abandoned. And Avenged with Triumph. When I married Damian Carter, I believed in forever. In loyalty. In love that withstands time, success, and hardship. I was the woman who stood beside him when he was nothing, who helped him build his empire, who sacrificed everything so he could become the man he always wanted to be. And when he finally got there—when he was rich, powerful, untouchable—he threw me away like last night’s mistake. He didn’t just cheat. He rewrote our story, twisting the truth until I was nothing more than a pathetic, useless wife clinging to his fortune. The world believed him. My own family doubted me. I lost everything. But they were all wrong about me. I didn’t break. I didn’t shatter. I rebuilt. With the help of a man who saw me for who I really was, I built my own empire. I exposed Damian’s secrets, stripped away his power, and took back everything they said I never could. And when he came crawling back, whispering apologies, asking for another chance—his voice trembling with regret—I simply smiled. Because I wasn’t that woman anymore. And more than that, I had finally found a man who never needed to lose me to understand my worth.
