MIRA

My heart picks up speed again as memories of that night assail me. My eyes are wide with shock.

"You were there that night. You saved me."

Mason stops in his tracks, his face darkening with an expression that dangerously tilts towards anger.

"What did you think, princess? That I didn't care if you were taken? I would'nt look for you?"

His voice washes over me, the intensity of his stare heating my cheeks. I lower my eyes.

"I would'nt blame you. You do not owe me anything." I say quietly.

"Bullshit!"

My eyes snap to Mason's at his outaged outburst.

"You were my responsibility that night, Mira. It was my job to protect you. I want you to understand that."

Annoyance spikes through me at his anger. I give him a haughty look.

"Fine, I get it. You came looking for me out of obligation. That's great."

"Cut the smart mouthed crap, Mira."

I lower my eyes once again at the seriousness in that icy stare.

My entire body stiffens in tension as Mason advances closer to the bed. He finally sto

    MASON"No! Please, no!"I bolt upright, flinging my MacBook to the side as the pain filled sound reaches me. I flick a glance at my watch. It's two in the morning."Please!"It takes me a moment to realise that the sound is coming from the bed, from Mira. I reach her bedside in a flash, my pulse pounding wildly against my throat.Lights begin blinking on and off, and alarms go off crazily as her heart monitor beeps, showing a rapid spike in her blood pressure. But that isn't what really catches my attention. Mira twists and turns in the restricted bed. Her delicate fingers are bunched around the bedsheets in a death grip. Her knuckles are white, completely drained of blood. Her eyes are tightly shut, her face contorted in a mask of pain as she writhes and twists on the bed.I grab her shoulders and shake her as gently as I can, just as a sleepy looking nurse and Mira's personal doctor run in through the double doors."Mira. Mira, baby, it's Mason. Wake up."" We heard the blood press

    FORTY ONEMIRAI stare at Mason, shock coursing through my veins. I find it extremely difficult to survive five minutes alone with this man in the room. How the hell will I survive two weeks in an entire mansion alone with him?"B-but…""Hush, princess. There are no buts." His gaze turns serious. "After last night, I realized this is the only way." He gets to his feet. "Be prepared. We're leaving in a few hours.""What exactly happened last night?" I ask quietly.Mason pauses, then he turns slowly in my direction. His steely gaze holds mine. It is a real struggle not to look away, or lower my eyes in fear."What did you say?"I shrug, trying to appear nonchalant."I do not think anything happened last night, or if it did, I do not remember."Something dangerous flashes in those gray depths, just before he shuts his eyes. When he opens them a moment later, they are calm. Unnervingly so.He leans over me, his hot breath tickling my senses. I clench my thighs against the heat that flo

    MIRAThe doctor finally gives the all clear, Mason signs a few papers and I'm ushered into a Porsche that looks like it just left the show room seconds ago.I lean against the buttery leather seats and close my eyes, trying to gather my thoughts as I await Mason's arrival.I clench my fingers to quel their trembling. I might act all strong whenever Mason is in the room, but deep down, I'm scared shitless.The kidnap scarred me, more than I am ready to even think about. Most importantly, it dwindled my almost non existent trust for others to big zero. Mason only says we're going to Hawaii. I have no idea where, or if I would have access to a phone in case of an emergency. I am putting my life in the hands of a man who still thinks I am nothing but a ten dollar whore.If I survive this, it will be one of the greatest miracles of all times. After waiting for what feels like an eternity and Mason still hasn't showed up, I begin to doze. Curse these pain relievers to hell.I shoot awake

  • Billionaire's Dangerous Obsession.   FORTY THREE – HATRED AND PLEASURE

    MIRA The food arrives and Mason force-feeds me the entire plate, not eating anything as usual. His heated gaze on me as I wrap my lips around the fork is enough to flood my already soaked panties all over again. I shift and squirm in my seat, trying to alleviate the throbbing ache in my core. After my brutal past, I vowed never to feel any form of sexual attraction towards any man. I kept to that vow until I met Mason Lachlan. Now, I'm simmering like a cat in heat, anticipating even the slightest brush of his fingers against my skin, but dreading it all the same. Get a grip of yourself, Mira. All too soon, the dishes are cleared and it is time to depart. Mason hasn't said a word to me since the food arrived. Now, he leans over me, fiddling with the snaps of my seat belt as the announcer's voice comes over the speakers. My eyes rove over his hard, handsome profile. His finger brushes against me and shivers run up my spine. His arresting, gray gaze finally meets mine and I look

    MIRAThe densely tinted glass of the car makes it almost impossible to get a full view of the child, but from every indication, he's male.I turn to Mason, stunned at the look of warmth in his eyes, and the wide smile that curves his lips. I have never seen him look this…happy about meeting someone. I have never seen him this happy. Period.A thought crosses my mind and I pause. Could Mason have a child I do not know about? From an ex wife or a mistress maybe? Now that I think about it, what do I really know about Mason Lachlan? He knows every single thing about me, except my past story, but all I know is that he's New York City's most dangerous billionaire."Mr Lachlan…" Before I can ask any questions, Mason pulls open the door and gets out of the car. I remain in my seat, confused as hell.Within seconds, my door is pulled open and I look up into his cold eyes once again. Those eyes will never brim with warmth for me.I should be happy. Emphasis on "should".After I just sit ther

    MIRAMason's kiss leaves me oddly breathless, and craving for more.My core hasn't stopped throbbing, and my thighs ache with the need to wrap then around his strong, muscled body. I fly to the bathroom, hurriedly taking off my clothes and sinking into the large, French tub. The hot water sluices over my skin, and I moan with pleasure.I lather with the Jasmine scented soap absently, imagining the wickedly hot things Mason Lachlan might do to me when he finally arrives. Will he eat me out while I come until I have nothing left to give like the last time? Will he thrust those expert, blunt fingers straight through my G-spot? Will he spank my arse until it glows a decadent red, and all I feel are delicious, pin pricks of pleasure in my core, while my pain fades into distant memory?Will he bend me over one of the marble sinks while his hot, hard cock pounds into me over and over again?Mason and I haven't actually had sex yet, and I am relieved. But at the same time, I'm beginning to

    MIRAI cannot breatheI try to flip to my side, struggling to draw in much needed air, but a hot blanket falls over my stomach, keeping me in place.I freeze, panic searing my veins as my eyes fly open. I turn my head to the side and my eyes meet the sharp lines of a devilishly handsome face. I breathe a sigh of relief. Mason.I think I've got a few precious minutes before that cold gaze comes to life, so I use it to study him.Staring at him, I realise that "handsome" is indeed an understatement. His well chiseled jaw, perfect nose and perfectly shaped brows makes Adonis, the Greek god, sound like a bad joke.This is one man Vanessa would call God's gift to womankind. Even in sleep, he looks so…intense. He probably signs business contracts and yells at me in his dreams. I almost giggle at the thought.He makes a deep groaning sound and my pulse leaps in surprise. His head moves and a lock of dark hair falls over his forehead. I hold my breath, waiting for him to settle down.When h

    MIRATo my surprise, Mason cleans me thoroughly with a bath cloth, then gives me a refreshing, full bath in the bathtub, before leaving the room without a word.Thelma comes in a moment later to announce I will be having breakfast downstairs this morning.I must say, I'm shocked. Mason had a change of mind? Oh well, I do not particularly care, so long as I do not get to eat all by myself up here.I hurriedly dress up, afraid to keep everyone waiting. I plan to do a little light exploring today, so I wear very short shorts and a mid riff exposing crop top.My choice of clothes is partly to tempt Mason, more than it is for exploration. My subconscious tells me that I'm playing with fire, but I have never been known to shy away from flames. I rush downstairs. Voices filter into the hall as I descend the slightly curved, grand stairs. Male voices. I take one look at my shorts and immediately have a rethink. If Mason has guests, I do not think it would be wise to trigger him by appearing

    MIRA “Wake up, princess. It’s getting late.” I blink sleepily, smiling to myself when I catch a whiff of heavenly smelling cologne. With my eyes still firmly shut, I reach out to the source of the delicious scent and my arms instantly come in contact with broad, cloth covered shoulders. With a determined tug, I pull the shoulders closer to myself and it lands against me with a soft thud, then I proceed to sink my face into the neck of the owner of the shoulder and get a better whiff of that addictive scent. “Mmm… you smell so good.” I feel soft, warm lips against my cheek. “Thank you, baby.” That jolts me out of my sleepy state. I open my eyes and I’m immediately assailed by piercing gray eyes. I blink up at him for a second. “Good morning, baby girl.” He whispers. I swallow. “Good morning.” I feel every part of my body tense up, mostly because I believe I have an early morning arousal and the world’s most handsome man is lying almost fully against me. I try to move awa

    MASONI should be holding Mira right now. I should be reassuring her of my unlimited devotion. But her confessions earlier struck a chord deep in my heart."Fuck!" I curse into the empty office.Unable to keep sitting still, I walk to the mini wet bar and pour myself a glass of my favourite Cognac. I tip the shot glass and down the contents in one gulp. The sharp burn does nothing to lessen the pain inside of me. It does nothing to quench the fire that burns so desperately for one green eyed, stubborn-as-fuck female.I slam the shot glass on the counter to stop myself from throwing it against the wall.Mira wouldn't want to stay with me unless I admit that I'm in love with her. Am I in love with Mira?The sudden realization has me freezing in my tracks. It hits me out of nowhere, numbing my senses.I walk back to my chair and sink into it. It is either that or fall flat on my face. I've always seen myself as incapable of love or anything related to the term. Turns out, the little

    MIRAMason and I fall into each other in a tangled heat of fused mouths and moving hands. He picks me from the bathtub and I hold on to him, enjoying the delicious slide of his wet body against mine.“Wrap your legs around me, baby.” He whispers urgently against my lips, and I comply. He grabs my arse, his fingers digging into the soft skin. The combination of pain and pleasure almost leaves me reeling.My core is already slick and dripping from arousal. My entire body feels like I’ve been set alight with a flaming torch.Mason pins me atop one of the counters in the bathroom. He spreads my legs and steps between them. His hot, hard, throbbing erection brushes against the swollen nub of my clit and I throw my head back, a slight whimper escaping my lips.“Mason. Mason please…”He runs his hot lips over the skin of my neck.“Please what, baby? What do you want?” He whispers against me. “Whatever you want is yours. Whatever you want, baby girl.”“Touch me. Touch me, please.” My voice is

    MIRA“Bathe with me.” He says confidently like he hasn’t just made a declaration that has my heart spilt all over his thousand dollar shirt.All traces of sleep departs from me and I stare at him, transfixed. He looks serious. Dead serious.“Is…is this still part of the challenge? Getting me to fall in love with you, I mean.” Because if it is, unfortunately for me, that ship has long sailed. I need to know where all this is coming from.For a moment, Mason says nothing. He simply stares at me, those stormy grays causing havoc to my raging nerves.“Do I look like I’m joking, little flower? Challenge aside, I’ve decided that I want you. I need you with me every single fucking moment.” My breath hitches. “You’re not there for five seconds and I suddenly can’t breathe properly. I remember that whatever is going on here is temporary and I want to smash something against the wall.” He pauses, his chest heaving rapidly. I have never seen him so…worked up. “ I think I’m obsessed with you, Mi

    MIRAIt’s eight o’clock and Mason still isn’t back. I left Vanessa’s a while ago after spending enough quality time with my sister and promising to come back. Actually, Darth came up and declared in his usual quiet, lethal manner that the boss wanted me back home. I would have defied him and stayed back, but I want to get this tuition issue out of the way once and for all.That was seven o’clock, almost an hour ago. Now, I sit in the main room and stare unseeingly at the beautiful mini aquarium, worrying myself to death. I started calling him thirty minutes ago. So far, he hasn’t answered any of my calls. Neither has he returned them. He said he was going after those who hurt me. What if they hurt him? My heart squeezes at the thought of him probably lying broken and hurt somewhere with no means of getting help, and I call his phone over and over again. It keeps going to voice mail. I throw the stupid thing against the wall, watching it crack open and fall to the ground with a sick

    MASONMira and I have been back to civilization for all of three days and I already want to load her up and take her back. I admit that our little vacation time together was…positively enlightening, but I never wanted it to end. Sadly, the real world was calling. I had to come back and make plans, put things in place.Mira trusts me to take revenge on everyone who hurt her in the past, and that is exactly what I’m going to do. I haven’t told her about our little encounter when she was fucking nineteen years old. The very thought of telling her makes my insides turn to ice.She might run. She might want to leave me. I won’t let her. Losing Mira would destroy me. I never counted on wanting a woman so much, not seeing or hearing from her for up to an hour would make me itch, but Mira changed…everything. So if keeping this little secret from her for the meantime would guarantee that she stays with me a little longer, that is exactly what I’m going to do.“What’s the plan?” I turn my

    MASON Mira might seem a little dazed, a little confused even, but I meant what I said. I protect her now. Her care is my responsibility. I know everything might go to shit later when she finds out that my uncle is in fact Escobar Scuderi and I’m the nephew she was “given to,” but when that time comes, I will be ready. She may have an anger fit, she might cry, she might even throw things at me. But even then, I’m not letting her go anywhere. She’s stuck with me for life now, even if I have to force a ring on that finger to prove it. I freeze as that thought flits through my mind, but the thought of Mira in my house, legally mine with my ring on her finger to prove it leaves me hot…and hard. I want to bind her to me in every possible way. I don’t really care if she accepts it as first. In the long run, she will come to understand that there won’t ever be another man in her life except me. As it should be. When I saw Mira for the first time at Le Delegharo, it felt like I was being p

    MIRAYou know that point in your life when it feels like you have absolutely no idea which path you're headed?That part where you feel like you had everything all figured out and suddenly, the way you chose doesn't feel like the right way anymore and you're all toggled up with confusion? That is exactly how I feel right now.Mason's eyes spark with conviction and something else, an emotion I have seen one two many times in those gray depths…determination. "I'm the one who owes you not the other way round, Mason."One of his perfectly shaped brows shoot up."And what exactly do you feel you owe me, Miss Fernandez? Sex? Mistress duties?"Okay, now I'm confused. I lift my chin, my gaze equally tinged with determination."I'm sorry, did I perhaps miss the memo? Isn't that exactly why I'm here?"Mason stares down at me for a while. An emotion that feels too dangerously close to indecision flits in his gaze."I don't want you to just be my mistress anymore."I freeze." What?"He rolls off

He literally scrubs me clean.When we’re both squeaky clean, Mason pins me beneath him on the bed. My legs are completely entangled with his. There’s absolutely no escaping him.”I like you like this.” He murmurs, running a thumb over my cheeks.”Oh? Like what?””Naked in my bed. Completely mine.”My pulse spikes and my heart begins to burn with a warm glow. Calm down, stupid heart.”I’m not utterly yours, Mason.” I challenge.His eyes equally spark with a dangerous, gray gleam.”Want me to show you all over again?” He asks, running his fingers over my thighs suggestively.”Are you joking?”His face is a perfect mask of seriousness,”Do you think I’m joking?”My mouth falls open and for a few seconds, I’m not able to utter a single word.”We just had…sex a couple minutes ago. I’m incredibly sore.” I point out incredulously.His
