Billionaire Alpha Missing Her
KendalThe last few days had been nothing but a blur. A thick numbness had settled over the top of me, and at times I was grateful for it. Between losing Mandy and having to testify in Jake's court case from his stabbing, I was spent. The school was good enough to give me a few days to myself, or really the whole fucking semester if I wanted it. My answer had been short and sweet. Hell no. There was no way I was sitting around in my misery for three months under the guise of trying to heal.There was no such thing as healing from death. It lightened its sting over time, but the bastard stood beside the living, ready to remind them at each turn in the bend of what, or rather who, they'd lost.If it hadn't been for Damon, I'd probably have missed every meal between Mandy's passing and the funeral. I was grateful for his friendship before my sister passed, but ever indebted to him after it. I wouldn't have made it without him."I miss you," I whispered softly as I stood at the front of t
Billionaire Alpha Rules Are Rules
Kendal"Thank you," I mumbled and glanced over toward Dana as we drove back toward my place. She'd only been there twice, and I was giving shitty instructions from dipping in and out of my thoughts."For what?" She reached over and took my hand in hers. The softness of her skin and the warmth of her touch thawed me a little."For sitting with me at the funeral, and loving on me at the graveside service." I lifted her hand to my mouth and kissed her fingers softly. "I don't deserve your kindness.""Of course you do." She pulled into the neighborhood where I'd purchased my house a few years back. "Are you up for telling me what happened at UT?""What happened with what?" I pulled my hand from hers and unbuckled as she parked in front of my place."You were so mad at me over the class schedule." She reached for her door handle. "Why?""Oh. That." I opened my door and walked to the front of the car. "The University has strict policies against a professor dating a student or another profes
Billionaire Alpha Madness
Dana"I just don't get it," I barked into the phone as I paced the floor in my living room."He's in a weird place right now, Dana. Give him a little bit of space and he'll come around." My best friend Olivia was forever trying to patch up the world with Band-Aids and butterfly kisses. How she was a top investment advisor in a cut-throat city like New York was beyond me."I don't think he will." I ran my hand through my hair and sat down on the couch. "I've been moping around this stupid apartment all weekend. Thank God I have a meeting with my adviser in an hour and a shift at the hospital, or I'd still be moping.""Just call him. You guys have a friendship, right?""It's not that easy." I wanted to pull the phone away and glare at it in hopes of getting my point across, but it was useless. Everything was, as far as I was concerned. "Maybe I should just change schools. If the problem is me being at UT, then I'll just look to see about transferring to another-""Hold up." Olivia's voi
Billionaire Alpha You're Going
DanaNurse Barry had a note on her door that said she was unavailable because of an emergency at the hospital. I was almost grateful to see it seeing that I wasn't really sure what I was going to tell her. I'd met with her the week before and locked down my schedule and my graduation. The only other thing she could help me with was dropping my classes and trying to transfer to another University for graduation, but after talking with Olivia, that option felt ignorant.I'd been at UT since I was a starting freshman. With my mom being a single mom and having to raise three kids, paying for the prestigious college had taken its toll on all of us. Me turning my back on that in hopes of being more available to Kendal was over the top. It was eight months. Eight months until graduation. If nothing else, I could wait that long for him. The only real question was whether he would wait for me.I walked back through the nursing building at UT and waved at a few people who greeted me. No matter
Billionaire Alpha Going Out
KendalI called in on Monday and moped around the house, sleeping off and on until the sun set and another day was officially over. I'd planned to do the same the next day, but the sound of someone banging on my front door at seven in the morning said otherwise."I'm coming. Shit." I grabbed a pair of sleeping pants and pulled them over my legs before stumbling down the hall. The last few days had been a blur and not the good kind. I was pretty sure I'd kissed Dana in my living room after Mandy's funeral and then told her we were nothing more than friends, but maybe not. My daydreams were starting to mix with my reality and I wasn't doing so good at telling which way was up.Damon gave me a cocky look as I opened the door. "You look like shit. Get dressed. We're going to breakfast.""No. I'm not hungry." I growled as he moved past me, hitting me with his shoulder."Don't care. I'm hungry and it's your turn to buy. Get dressed or I'll fucking dress you myself.""This I gotta see." I cl
Billionaire Alpha Sneak Around
KendalWe sat down and gave the waitress our drink orders before Damon turned the conversation back to Dana. Something told me that he wasn't going to relent until I made a few promises to get my love life back on track. Sadly enough, she was the only woman I wanted to do that with, and she was officially off limits."So tell me specifically what these rules say. It's the UT code of conduct? Like the exact verbiage.""I don't know the exact verbiage, but I know as a professor, I'm not allowed to date any student or another professor on campus. It's pretty simple. She's a student at the college I'm teaching at, and she's off limits." I narrowed my eyes at him, as if I had any hope of intimidating the dick in front of me. He'd been muscling me around since we met a million years ago."So you sneak around." He shrugged and pulled his napkin into his lap. The look on his face said that his idea was not only brilliant, but something we should have thought about already."No." I smiled up a
Billionaire Alpha Emergency
DanaAfter another restless night of sleep, the last thing I wanted to do was head back to the hospital the next morning. I was almost looking forward to the mini-mester starting just so there would be something in my life that wasn't the hospital or my empty-ass apartment.The flashing lights by the ER entrance caught my attention as I drove toward my usual parking spot. Where it wasn't anything out of the ordinary to have several ambulances at the hospital, I couldn't pass up the curiosity bubbling inside of me.I jerked the wheel to the right and parked in the first spot I could find. After grabbing my backpack, I jogged toward the ER entrance and walked in to see a bit of mayhem."Young, good." Dr. Lewis walked by the entrance and motioned for me to join him. "Multi-car pileup on I-45. We need you in trauma. Wash up and be prepared to help however we need you to.""Yes, sir." I jogged behind him as adrenaline filled me completely. I loved the rush of knowing I was heading into a s
Billionaire Alpha Figure It Out
Dana"Wow. I swear you always end up at the right place at the right time." Jackie pulled her hair into a high ponytail and gave me a cheeky grin.I dipped my spoon into my frozen yogurt and glanced around at all the mall-goers before turning my attention back to her."Are we really going to New York this weekend?""Yes." She tilted her head a little. "You're not backing out. I already got the tickets.""And where are we staying when we get there?" I already knew the answer."At Parks' apartment. It's the top floor of some ritzy apartment building right near Times Square."I shook my head and took a quick bite of my yogurt. "You're not going to be completely butt-hurt if I stay with my best friend from high school, right? She lives in the city. I'll hang out with you when you want me to, but you know you're just going for a bootie call."She snorted. "I don't care if you stay with your friend or me. I just want you to go with me up there. I hate flying by myself.""All right. I'll cal
