Bound By the Billionaire 70
I’ve just stepped into the house, Friday afternoon I could barely sit still and get through my classes, today is Friday. The actual dee-day. I’m here to freshen up and leave Bumper behind for the rest of the day as I won't be needing her this evening. It's still early in the day so I hadn’t seen him all through yesterday, Ms. Pact informed me he left early for a meeting and wouldn’t join me for breakfast. Now I’m thinking I’ll just text Ian I’ll be staying the night at Hannah when I run into Ms. Pat. “Hello dear, Mr Quinn asked to see you as soon as you return” I straightened, “He’s home?” it wasn’t even four yet. “Yes, he returned a while ago” Hm. Okay… “Thanks, I’ll go drop my bag and see him.” My eyes rolled around my skull as I tried to imagine what reason he would want to see me this afternoon, coming up with nothing. “I’ll take that, don’t worry, go on dear” She steps into me, reaching for my bag and I have no choice but to relinquish it. “Ah… okay” I handed ov

Just as he said, there’s a little black skirt with silver accents and a matching top on the bed. I dont think that was gotten from my closet, when did he have the time to order an outfit? And it's not all I see two black boxes with designer labels at the foot of the bed and another beside the skirt on the bed but much smaller. I’m grinning like mad as I hurry into the room, kneeling to get one of the boxes, I push it open and then soft white tissue to reveal a pair of black low heeled boots.“Awwwn…” I brought them out one after the other, smoothing my finger on the soft shiny leather. How pretty, and kinda edgy. Not my usual style as I was more of a sneaker girl but I loved it. From the length they would likely go up to my calves. I couldn’t wait to try them on. I get the second box wondering what it might be, I’m surprised to see a purse with a long silver chain strap. It was chic and girly and pretty. Now that’s more my speed, “These are all so nice” I exclaimed appreciatively.T

I let myself into Hannah’s apartment “Hunny I’m home!” “Bathroom!” She yelled. I made my way into her room to see makeup and hair products clustered everywhere, a few pairs of shoes, and her new dress on the floor. The bathroom door opens and my friend comes out in a ratted shirt a range of clips stuck on her hair to hold curls in place. “Look what I got” She holds out a little bottle thing. “Blue nail polish?” “Blue eyeliner,” she corrects “Electric blue to be exact, it’ll look epic with the look I’m planning for you, now lemme see those tickets” she ordered, and as I’d be expecting it I already had them in hand, I handed the envelope over. “Your man is a magician oh my God it’s real!” she yelled “You’ll have to thank him for us” I laughed “I know I know. I did” She eyed me skeptically, “You said what? Thanks?” I raised my eyebrows feeling lost, “what was I should I have said? Thank you, my lord?” I’d thank him earnestly, I was very grateful and I made sure he knew that

“Ian?” My hand falls a grin splitting across my lips, “You're here!” Then I paused “Wait, but how are you here?” Has he been here all along? I thought he didn't know JBK? “W-what are you doing here?” And I glanced around to see that I hadn’t been magically transported to another place. Yes, still at the arena. And I'm more shocked to see he’s dressed differently, decked out in dark jeans tucked into heavy boots, a black v-neck sweater stretched over his wide chest, the sleeves pushed to expose those muscular forearms, a heavy watch glinting at his wrist. His brows furrowed, eyes on my lips indicated that he couldn’t hear me over the loud music. So I leaned forward, a hand dropped to my hip moved to my back to anchor me closer to him, the crop my of the top had my middle bare, his palm was warm against my skin, a large palm spanning across my back as he pulled me closer has a shiver running down my spine. I gulped. “I said why are you here? Did something happen?” He leans down spe

“New York City!” Screams called out in return and I turned to see Eliot standing before a mic, his bandmates haven vacated the stage. A soft grin lights up his features and when the screams finally reduced he brought his lips closer to the mic. “There’s this new song I’ve been trying out, it’s not been recorded, it’s rough around the edges, would you like to be the first to hear it?” The screams come again. “Holy fuck Katy, a new song!!!” Hannah yelled on her feet. “This is blowing my mind, I gotta record this” she starts digging into her purse flipping on the camera as she waits for him to start. “It’s your boy Kates, huh...!” she grinned at me, “Did you know Katy used to have a little crush on him?” Someone shoot me. Right now. Please. She winked at me and laughed at something her boyfriend said but I don’t hear them because it’s loud in here and I was filled with mortification. “Crushing on rock stars babygirl?” A deep voice slid into my ear. I covered my face w

It’s two am in the morning and there’s not a wink of sleep in my eyes, that’s the thing about having fun, if I had been studying right now, not even putting my feet in hot water would have kept my eyes open. I only managed to eat half of my plate with Ian’s watchful gaze on me, as he discussed football with Kyle and Sam, turns out he might not watch movies but he knew the NFL like the back of his hand. He was different, chatting with my friends than what I was used to from him during those other events we attended. Calmer, less… edgy. It was more handshakes and cutting tones, back pats, and toasts to secrets agreements. I guess discussing business would make one more guarded. Turns out he went to school with a few, knew them personally and they even kept in contact, I think Kyle might have a crush with the number of times he said “What?! No way” while I tried to ignore how hard his muscled thigh felt beneath my butt, how I tried not to squirm as his long fingers subconsciously

After a few sips of water, I suggested we wait for the others so we went back to our table. We didn’t have to wait long before Hannah and Kyle joined us, holding their own water in hand. I don’t think I’m the only one who noticed the wrinkled state of Sam’s shirt when he and Cami reappeared. Ian nodded at Mr Allen who has been close by all night. And we step out into the crisp night air. They settled into the back of the limo after we hugged and said good bye. Hannah listing two finger to her ear and mouthing the words call me. Ian takes my hand, “Come kitten, our ride is this way” “Did you have a good time?” He asked as we pulled out of the lot. “The best, thank you for everything, my friends will be talking about this for weeks to come” I swiped my tongue over my suddenly dried lips, he had such attractive hands, was that even an actual thing? I truth, I didn’t understand my recent obsession with the male forearms. And his is something to look at. His tanned skin, the veins l

**I wake up the next morning with a dry mouth. My tongue felt like a towel that was just in the wash and mouth equally as bitter. I push up slowly, throw legs over the bed, my eyes in my palm. , Recounts the night after wards, drive the rest of the way in silence, stop car, held her hand to the house, says good night, she heads to the kitchen for some water turn around to see his back, towards his office phone at his ear. The glass I dumped on my nightstand is not full and a bottle of pills, painkillers seats beside it. With half closed lids I leaned to the side, popped two pills into my mouth and washed it down with half of the water. Then I return it back into the night stand. Ian. His name immediately comes to mind. Last night was so great, I still can’t believe he joined us for JBK concert. Am I allergic?His words brought a smile to my lips. Now I know he could have a good time like the rest of us. And who knows, maybe there would be more of that, if he
