Eduardo's Point Of View"This place never gets old, does it?" I said as Herald and I walked into his club.We were at CLUB V'R, the biggest and most popular nightclub in the city, owned by Herald. It prided itself on exclusive, invite-only memberships for the world’s wealthiest and most powerful. A good number of members, including Herald, engaged in less than legal activities.We got into the VVIP room where a rare eighteenth-century chessboard sat on top of the thick oak next to two empty crystal tumblers and one full decanter of Glenfiddich 40 Year single malt scotch whisky."Hard to believe you invited me over to beat your ass."He laughed and took off his suit jacket. He handed it to one of his men and sat down. "Don't get too excited, old friend. I might just do more than that."Taking off my suit jacket and rolling up my sleeves, I sat down. "We'll see."The room was quiet, except for the soft clacking of pieces being moved on the chessboard. We were focused intently on the gam
GOMEZ ENTERPRISEAurora's Point Of View "We should celebrate!" Mr. Gomez was beaming with smiles after we closed a deal with two of their top clients who had been thrilled with their proposals. Everything was my idea, and he couldn’t be more thankful for my support and assistance."That can wait, Mr. Gomez. We're not even started yet.""Oh yes, we are. We could grab dinner or do anything you want." When I shook my head in response, he groaned and tried harder. "It's just a normal celebration. If this is all about being alone with me, you can invite everyone else."I sighed and looked up from my computer. "No, it's not that. I'm just concerned about other things.""They can always wait, Miss Williams."I inhaled deeply and looked back at my computer. Of course, I couldn't tell him about my other concerns, which involved my ex-husband constantly plaguing my life. His attention had slowly diverted to the business, and I feared what he would do next.No, fuck that. I was not going to let
Aurora's Point Of ViewIt wasn't a date; I had planned to grit out work but changed my mind. He could believe whatever he wanted to. All I cared about was how he had managed to get into my house once again. How did he even know I had gone out? And what about the housekeeper and the kids?"You have no right to be in here," I snapped."So you've said a couple of times," he replied dryly and sipped his coffee. My eyes darted to the cup, and I gritted my teeth. That was my coffee cup. How dare he?"Now, get out. And never come back again."Eduardo hummed in response but didn't make a move to leave. Instead, he looked around the kitchen until his eyes finally landed on me. His gaze swept the entirety of my body, and his eyes blazed."I deserve to know where you ran off to, leaving the kids behind."I scoffed and rolled my eyes. "It's none of your business. Besides, someone was looking after them.""The nerve of you to leave my kids under the care of a fucking housekeeper," he growled and p
Aurora's Point Of ViewJust as he said, I lied to him, even though the truth was written all over my face and radiating from my pores. He only smirked knowingly but didn't press any further. Then, he left after wrecking down my walls and promised to return as always.How the hell does he get in the first place, I wondered as I prepared the kids for school. I had a hard time sleeping the whole night and was restless. The little time I slipped off, I had a wet dream that involved my ex-husband touching me in all the right places and whispering dirty words to me.I bolted upright in the middle of the night, a gasp lingering on the tip of my tongue. Sweat coated my skin, and my hair was plastered to my cheeks, neck, and down my shoulders. The shocking part was that my fingers were buried in my panties and my pussy was dripping wet!How in the name of the moon did that happen?"Mummy, you're spilling the tea," Eloise called out, breaking into my jumbled-up thoughts."I'm so sorry, sweetie,
Aurora's Point Of View"Eduardo, what are you doing here?" He smiled sinisterly. "I was just here to bid your ex-boss goodbye on your behalf." I frowned. "What do you mean?" I asked as I walked further into the office. I stood before Eduardo and said, "You shouldn't be here." "No, Aurora, you shouldn't be here. I gave your boss here a proposal." I turned to Ricardo who had rage blazing in his eyes. "What did he say to you?" "I would stop bothering him under one condition," Eduardo said. "And what's that?" "Don't listen to him, Aurora." Ricardo's said. "On a condition that you quit working here and come work for me," Eduardo added and I scoffed in disbelief. "Are you crazy?!" I fumed. "Oh, trust me, sweetheart, this is just the tip of the iceberg of my craziness." "Why do you think I would come join you at your stupid company?" I seethed. "I am not going to do that!" "Oh really?" Eduardo gritted. "Yes!" Ricardo thundered, pulling me to stand by his side. My cheeks heated u
Aurora's Point Of ViewMurmurs erupted from every corner as I stumped inside the company. "Isn't that Mrs. Garcia?" "What is she doing here?" "I thought they had divorced." "Look at how she looks. She really let herself go." I ignored the nasty and unwanted comments and turned in the direction of the elevator. Shit! I needed a key card to open the elevator. Just as I was about to lament, the elevator dinged open and Eduardo emerged with his guards. "Excuse me, miss, you're not permitted to be here..." One tried to hold me but I shoved him back. I got to Eduardo and I sent a harsh slap across his face. Gasped echoed around me as the slap landed on his cheek. Everywhere went dead silent. His face turned in the direction of my slap and he grinned mischievously."Touch her and you'll never use your hands again," Eduardo fired as the guards tried to touch me. I slapped him again. My chest rose and fell as I heaved in rage. "You motherfucker!" I screamed and he smirked cockily. "To
Aurora's Point Of ViewRicardo was in no state to drive so I offered to drive him home. He told me not to worry and was adamant at first but after I insisted, he let me drive him home. The drive home was very quiet. Ricardo had his face turned to the window, gazing outside absentmindedly. Only Moon knew what was going through his mind. The Ricardo I knew would have been mad, flared up, and cursed Eduardo with everything he had in him but right now, Ricardo was calm. No, calm was not the word. He was expressionless. It was as if he felt nothing but emptiness. He wouldn't say a word to me, he wouldn't look at me. Even when I tapped him, he only stirred and he didn't turn to me. So I decided not to push it. When he was ready, he would talk. I drove into the garage of his mansion and he stepped out before I even did. I stepped out and followed behind him. We got to the door and he said, "You can... you can leave." He told me. "I'll take it from here." "I'll leave but not now. Someone h
Aurora's Point Of ViewI knew exactly what he was capable of. The mere thought sent shivers down my spine. "Get lost!"He did the opposite.Like a feather, he slowly and lightly ran his coarse beard over my neck and across my heated cheek, his hot breath making my pulse, respiration, and body temperature jump. What was he doing? And why was my body reacting to him even after five years?I shouldn't allow him to get so close. I should have shoved him away and ordered him out of my house, but I couldn't. Not when my body was burning in flames and he hadn't even touched me."Feels like old times, doesn't it?" he asked, his voice diluted by its unmistakable huskiness.Yes! But I didn't say that out loud. I couldn't lose myself to him again. Never!He licked the sensitive skin on my neck, and I shuddered, stifling a moan. Evander smirked and whispered, "That still turns you on. I can smell your fucking arousal from up here."The cool air in the room created goosebumps that covered my burni
