Billionaire's Dangerous Obsession. FORTY – NO ONE TOUCHES LACHLAN'S WOMAN
MASONI look up from speaking to the head waiter, my eyes instinctively searching the room for a sign of shiny, black hair. Mira. Fuck! Weird how I cannot seem to go two minutes without looking at her or knowing where she is, but she can survive a whole year without me. The thought causes an odd pang in my chest. And my chest doesn't do odd pangs. There. Found her. I watch as she comes towards me, her beauty never failing to twist me a thousand different ways. Mira Fernandez has a rare, exotic kind of beauty, and the fact that she isn't aware of it only ramps up the allure.My eyes follow her steadfastly as she gazes around the restaurant in child-like awe, completely oblivious of the mesmerized stares the male patrons throw her way. One guy stares at her until he overfills his glass of wine as she passes by, and I feel the stirrings of anger in my veins.I want to carry her out of here and take her far, far away, where no one would get the pleasure of ogling her, where she would exi
Billionaire's Dangerous Obsession. FORTY ONE – GAME PLAN
MASON A knock on my window startles me from my murderous thoughts. I depress the button that automatically opens the car doors and Darth climbs in.I dial Damon's number and put him on speaker phone. He answers on the first ring."Mason.""There's someone I want you both to investigate." I say without preamble." I got your text." Damon replies, his tone serious. " What's up?" Darth nods in agreement." Who is this person, boss?"I grip the steering wheel tight," I do not know at the moment. I didn't get enough time to find out anything about him, but I know he's a new employee at La Camonerra."That serious nod again," If I may ask, sir. Why do you want this person investigated?"I think about it for a while, white hot anger slowly crawling through my veins."I think he has something to do with Mira's past. I'm not sure exactly how yet, but I know something's not right about him. Mira had a strange reaction to him earlier today. She was horrified."" Do you think it's them?" Damo
Billionaire's Dangerous Obsession. FORTY TWO – SURPRISES
MIRAI sit huddled on the sofa, a cup of steaming tea in hand. My nerves are stretched to the point of breaking, and I'm still finding it difficult to calm my raging heartbeat.Being there, seeing him…it brought it all back. All the pain, the shame…the humiliation. God. I drop my cup on the table and cover my face with my hands, willing my tears not to fall. I thought I had moved past it. I keep all the memories of those years locked up in a part of my mind that I never visit. I believed I had moved on.I guess I was wrong. And Mason…Images of the icy anger in his eyes invade my vision, and I shut my eyes tight. He was so angry, yet so gentle. My heart clenches at the memories of the softness in his gaze when he looked down at me, and promised me things that are probably too good to be true. I feel something soften inside of me at the way he got me out of the restaurant when I asked him to, without asking any questions. Mason Lachlan might just be one of the worst things that ever
Billionaire's Dangerous Obsession. FORTY THREE – WHENEVER SHE WANTS...
MIRA"What on earth are you talking about?" I ask, my voice shaking. "Exactly what I said, Mira."I lift my chin,"My life is non of your business. Whatever happened or happens to me shouldn't concern you."His voice takes on a dangerous edge." It shouldn't concern me? You practically had a panic attack and almost fell to pieces in my arms, and you stand there and say that what happens to you shouldn't concern me. Don't you dare, Mira."I lean back on the sofa, momentarily stunned at his harsh response."Everything is already set up. Your sister will be staying with Vanessa until we return."I swallow, deciding to choose my battles."When will this be?""Whenever I please. Now I suggest you go upstairs and get yourself ready. The jet leaves in twenty minutes."My eyes fly to his once more, widening in shock," Twenty minutes? That barely gives me enough time to pack."He leans back on the bar, looking every inch the dangerous billionaire."You do not have to pack anything. Anything
Billionaire's Dangerous Obsession. FORTY FOUR – A MAN OFHIS WORD
MIRAI let go of the debate in my head long enough to quickly swipe lip gloss over my lips and give Anna and Vanessa a quick call before I go down to join Mason. I do not find him anywhere . Instead, I find Darth at the bottom of the stairs.“Where’s Mason?”“The boss is already waiting by the car, miss. This way.”He steps into the elevator and I step in behind him. The journey downwards is silent and awkward. I mean, darth doesn’t say a word. He just looks straight ahead, his face stone cold and completely stoic. Finally uncomfortable with the silence, I clear my throat to start a conversation but the elevator finally dings, signaling that we’ve arrived at our destination. I breath a sigh of relief.“This way, ma’m.” Darth says and I follow him gladly to the waiting Porsche. He opens the door and I slide in with a murmured “thanks.” I feel him even before I turn. He’s still dressed in the custom made, well pressed, all black three piece suit from earlier, only now, his tie is miss
Billionaire's Dangerous Obsession. FORTY FIVE – TRUST AND THORNS
MIRAI bury my face in Mason's neck, content to just let him hold me as I breathe him in. I am still a shivering, shaking mess, but he presses my face into his chest, hogging me to him like I'm some fragile, precious ornament. I feel my heart gradually turn to melted butter. "What ever this is, princess, we'll fight it together. You and I." His voice is a soft, soothing rumble beneath my ear, and I find myself nodding in agreement before I even totally hear what he has to say."You have to trust me, Mira." I freeze against him.Trust? Do I trust Mason Lachlan? Images of Mason hovering over me and threatening the doctors when I had a panic attack at Las Vegas assail my memory, Mason carrying me in his arms through a burning house when I was kidnapped last year, Mason holding me whenever I have a panic attack….He had no responsibility towards me during those times. He had the option of leaving me behind to rot when I was kidnapped, but he still came back for me. So do I trust Mason
Billionaire's Dangerous Obsession. FORTY SIX – CHANGED HIM...
MIRAI make to go outside, then I remember that my print on the retina scan hasn't been set yet. I turn in the direction Mason just went, then turn back immediately. Should I go back and ask him to get the door open for me? Should I just stay away? Decisions, decisions…I make up my mind to go ask him when a noise from behind startles me. I turn to find Darth standing there, a quizzical look in his eyes,"Do you need something, ma'm?" He asks quietly.I give him a wide eyed look," What is with all of you and sneaking up on me all the time?!"He backs up as if I've just accused him of bloody murder." My apologies. It wasn't intended."I roll my eyes and turn away," It's fine, Darth. I need the door open. Mason said you can take me on a tour around the property.""Your retina prints have already been set, ma'm. You just need to activate it."I whirl in his direction, completely surprised."Wasn't I supposed to provide that? How did you get it?"Darth's stone cold expression is still
Billionaire's Dangerous Obsession. FORTY SEVEN – BROKEN REVELATIONS
MIRAMason grabs a towel and ties it around his waist, hiding his impressive erection. I sink into the tub so only my head is visible as I focus all my attention on him . He sinks back onto the wet bench, his fingers firmly clenched into fists at his sides. His eyes meet mine and the raw intensity in them makes my cheeks heat.”I want you to understand that you have nothing to hide from me, Mira. You have nothing to fear. You can tell me about your past, and I’ll make sure that every single person who hurt you pays. If I have to tell you about my past to get you to really trust me, so be it.”I swallow and nod, giving him the go ahead. Mason takes a deep breath and lowers his head, when he raises them once more, I am stunned by the torturous look in those gray orbs.” My family is what you would call dysfunctional. My father…” Another deep breath, “he abused my siblings for a long time, until they began to run away one by one.” My heart twists at the raw pain in his voice. I can ima
