Did I walk on my own? Or had he carried me? The details were lost in the fog of my mind, clouded by alcohol and emotion.All I knew was the present. The here and now.We were in a room—an unfamiliar, opulent space. The luxurious decor was nothing like anything I’d ever seen before. It wasn’t his home, at least not one I recognized. Perhaps it was a hotel, though even that felt like a distant thought in the back of my mind. The soft glow of golden light bathed the room, casting shadows on the walls that seemed to flicker and dance.He was with me, his lips trailing over mine with a mixture of tenderness and intensity. His kisses were careful yet demanding, like he was holding himself back but couldn’t quite stop himself from indulging in me. It was a contradiction that left me breathless and confused, my heart pounding so hard it felt like it would burst from my chest.His hands moved over me, tracing the curves of my body with an almost reverent touch. Yet there was a hunger in his mo

"Relax, my love," he whispered, his lips brushing your ear, sending shivers down my spine. "Let me pleasure you." His fingers reached the apex of my thighs, and I instinctively parted my legs, offering myself to him. His breath caught as he gazed at my glistening core, his eyes dark with desire. "So beautiful," he murmured, his voice hoarse. "So ready for me." His fingers traced my folds, gathering my essence, and I gasped at the sensation, my hips bucking involuntarily. He teased my clit, circling it slowly, making me squirm and beg for more. "Please," I pleaded, my voice breathless. "I need you." He chuckled, the sound low and sensual. "Patience, my sweet. I want to make this unforgettable." His mouth replaced his fingers, his tongue sliding through my wetness, sending shocks of pleasure through my body. He lapped at my sensitive bundle of nerves, sucking gently, then flicking it with the tip of his tongue, driving me to the brink of ecstasy. My hands clutched the sheet

If he noticed I hadn’t been home last night, there would be hell to pay. But maybe, just maybe, he wouldn’t realize it. After all, he hadn’t cared much about where I was before. But fate wasn’t on my side today. The moment I opened the door to the house, I froze. Vincent was standing in the living room, his eyes instantly locking onto me. The sharp intensity of his glare sent a chill down my spine. He didn’t need to say a word—I could already tell he knew. “Where were you?” he asked, his voice low and laced with suspicion. I swallowed hard, struggling to come up with an excuse, but the words wouldn’t come. My heart raced as he stepped closer, his gaze narrowing, demanding an answer. “Well?” he pressed, his tone now sharper. “You think I wouldn’t notice you sneaking out and not coming home last night?” I opened my mouth to respond, but no excuse could cover the guilt I felt. My silence only fueled his anger. I stood there frozen, my mind scrambling for an answer that wouldn’t wo

For the past few days, Vincent has been keeping a close watch on me. It’s suffocating, knowing that he finds time for his own twisted rage—to monitor my every move, ensuring I won’t attempt to escape. His eyes follow me, not out of love, but out of sheer possessiveness, as if I’m a possession he refuses to let slip away. And he’s right. We both know it. I can’t leave. Not when he’s made sure to block every possible exit from my life. He’s trapped me in a prison of debts and obligations, shutting every door and locking me into a life I no longer recognize as my own. I haven’t given up—at least, not completely. But I no longer have the strength to fight him or argue over things that feel like losing battles. Every day, I wake up hoping for the right moment to finally come—the moment when I can settle my debts, walk away, and never look back. But that moment feels so far away, almost unreachable, and the weight of waiting is exhausting. I’m tired of everything. Tired of Vincent’s w

Seeing her again reminded me of everything I’d been running from, of the love I’d never been able to forget. And as I sat there, watching her from a distance, I couldn’t help but think that maybe fate wasn’t done with us yet. Maybe this was our second chance. I stayed at the counter, pretending to nurse the drink in front of me, but my thoughts were too loud to let me enjoy anything. I couldn’t stop analyzing her every move—how she tucked her hair behind her ear, how her lips curved into a hesitant smile, how her eyes darted around the room as if she was searching for something—or maybe someone. Was she here alone? Who was that woman with her earlier? And why did she seem so... lost? I clenched my fist, trying to hold back the storm of emotions building inside me. It had been years, but seeing her again made me feel everything I’d buried so deeply. I wanted to walk over, to say something, anything—but the fear of her reaction rooted me to my seat. Would she even recognize me? Woul

"To check if I have another man? To make sure I remember that I’m nothing without you?" Her words hit me like a punch to the gut. What the hell had she been through? She looked at me with such pain, such anger, and yet all I could see was her vulnerability. It tore me apart to hear her speak this way, to see her reduced to this. I fought the urge to grab her, to shake her, to tell her that she was everything—that she was strong, beautiful, and didn’t need a man like Vincent to define her worth. But now wasn’t the time. She was too lost in her emotions, too drunk to comprehend anything I could say. Instead, I stayed silent, letting her vent, letting her pour out the anguish she had been carrying. But inside, my resolve hardened. Whatever Vincent had done, whatever pain he had caused her—I would make it my mission to ensure Kirsten never felt like this again. She deserved better, and if she couldn’t see that right now, then I would make damn sure she did someday. She began hitting

Her eyes fluttered open, hazy with sleep and intoxication, but they met mine with a clarity that left me breathless. Her lips curved into a soft, dreamy smile, and before I could process what was happening, she leaned forward, closing the distance between us. Her lips pressed against mine in a kiss that sent a jolt of electricity through my entire body. I froze for a moment, utterly stunned, before my instincts took over. I couldn’t hold back the smile that spread across my face, even as her kiss deepened. Between our kisses, I murmured her name, unable to believe this was real. My hands found their way to her face, cupping her cheeks gently as I poured every ounce of my emotions into that moment. Her lips moved against mine with a hunger that matched my own, and it wasn’t just the alcohol—it was something deeper, something raw and undeniable. I kissed her back with everything I had, savoring the way she responded, the way she clung to me as if I were her anchor in a storm. Her fin

I pulled back, my forehead resting against hers, our breaths mingling. “Kirsten,” I murmured, my voice trembling. “I’ll give you everything you want, everything you need. But let’s do this the right way. When you’re ready, when we both are.” Her eyes softened, and for a moment, I thought she understood. But then she leaned into me, her lips finding mine again, and I realized I was powerless against her. I was hers, always had been, and tonight, I would give her whatever she asked for. As I kissed her again, I made a silent promise to myself: no matter where this night led us, I would do everything in my power to prove that I was worthy of her. This wasn’t just a fleeting moment—it was the beginning of everything I’d been waiting for. I surrendered to her completely, letting her take the lead as I navigated the delicate line between control and passion. Her hands roamed over me with a hunger that both exhilarated and broke me. This wasn’t just about the physical; this was the culm

I stopped, turning my head slightly, but I didn’t let go of Anton’s hand. “Yes?”He hesitated, his lips parting and closing as though he couldn’t quite find the words. Finally, he spoke, his voice quieter now. “Do you think I even deserve peace? After everything I’ve done to you… to both of you?”I sighed, glancing at Anton, who gave my hand a small squeeze. He didn’t intervene, allowing me to face Vincent on my own terms. “It’s not about deserving it, Vincent,” I said gently. “It’s about whether or not you want it. Whether or not you’re willing to change and work toward it.”He leaned back in his chair, his cuffed hands resting heavily on the armrests. His gaze fell to the floor as if searching for answers in the patterns of the tiles. “I don’t know if I can live with the guilt. Every time I think about what I’ve done… it’s like it’s eating me alive.”“Then stop running from it,” I said firmly. “Face it. Own your mistakes and make amends where you can. That’s the only way you’ll ever

He looked down at his cuffed hands, his voice lowering to a whisper. "So, I took advantage of it. Out of jealousy, out of spite. I wanted to take away something he cared about, something he might love, just to prove I could. I wanted to hurt him the way I thought he had hurt me... and you became the collateral damage."His words hit me like a tidal wave, and for a moment, I couldn’t breathe. All this time, I had thought Vincent’s actions were about me, about control, about possession. But now I realized—it was never about me. It was about his insecurities, his bitterness toward Anton, and his need to win a game only he was playing."You used me..." I whispered, the hurt evident in my voice.Vincent’s eyes met mine, and for the first time, they weren’t filled with arrogance or anger. They were filled with regret. "I did," he confessed. "And I’ll regret it for the rest of my life.""I can’t believe you..." I whispered, my voice trembling with disbelief and pain.Vincent nodded slowly, h

"Anton..." I hesitated, my fingers twisting nervously in my lap as I searched for the courage to voice what had been weighing on my mind. "Can I meet him?"The room fell silent, the air suddenly thick with tension. Anton’s jaw tightened, his usually soft eyes hardening as they locked onto mine. "Why do you want to meet him, Kirsten?" His voice was calm, but there was an unmistakable edge to it.I took a deep breath, steadying myself. "Because I feel like I need to," I said softly. "To free myself from him completely—for real this time. I need closure, Anton. I need to look him in the eyes and tell him that we’re done. And... I want him to ask for forgiveness."Anton’s gaze didn’t waver, but I could see the conflict brewing behind his eyes. For a moment, I thought he’d argue, tell me it was unnecessary, that I didn’t need to reopen that chapter of my life.But then, to my surprise, he nodded. "If that’s what you need," he said quietly, his voice firm but filled with understanding, "I’l

The days passed like a dream—soft, fleeting, and almost unreal. I hadn’t been counting them because, for the first time in years, I was truly happy. But that happiness was laced with an edge of unease, especially when Anton told me what had happened.Vincent had been captured. By Anton’s men.The news left a strange weight in my chest, and though I tried to push it aside, it lingered."What are you going to do to your brother, Anton?" I asked, my voice quiet but firm as I sat across from him in the spacious living room.Anton leaned back in his chair, his sharp features illuminated by the soft glow of the chandelier. His brow arched slightly, a smirk tugging at his lips. "You sound like you’re worried about him."I hesitated, unsure how to answer that. Was I?Despite the cruel way Vincent had treated me, a part of me couldn’t deny that he had once been a significant part of my life. But worry? Love? Those feelings had long since faded."I’m not worried about him," I said, shaking my h

I learned from him that Vincent had resorted to sending death threats, demanding Anton leave the country. My stomach turned at the revelation. It was a side of Vincent I hadn’t fully understood until now. Anton, however, seemed unfazed, stating firmly, “He’ll pay for that. I’ll make sure he does. Threatening me gives me the leverage I need to put him behind bars.”The thought of Vincent—once the man I thought I loved—going to prison left me torn. A part of me felt justice was inevitable, but another part still struggled to reconcile this side of him with the man I had once known.And then there was Anton. The man who had been a stranger not so long ago but now felt like a lifeline. It was surreal to think back to the days when I would deliver lunches to his company, never once imagining that the CEO himself was aware of me. And now, here I was, living under the same roof with him."Can you believe this?" I murmured to myself one evening as I stood by the window, looking out at the exp

His eyes narrowed, and for a moment, I thought he might lash out. But instead, he turned away, laughing bitterly. "We’ll see about that," he muttered, disappearing into his bedroom and slamming the door behind him. I exhaled shakily, my entire body trembling. This wasn’t living. This was survival. I picked up my phone and opened Anton’s message again. Without overthinking, I typed: Me: I need your help. I hit send and waited, my heart pounding in my chest. Within seconds, his reply came. Anton: I’ll be there in the morning. I stared at the message, a mix of relief and fear washing over me. Tomorrow, things would change. Whether for better or worse, I didn’t know. But one thing was certain—I couldn’t keep living like this. The morning light filtered through the curtains, and I sat on the edge of the bed, staring blankly at the floor. My heart felt heavy, weighed down by everything that had happened the night before. Vincent’s words still echoed in my mind—his possessiveness, hi

"Do you want to go home?" Anton asked softly after a long stretch of silence.I shook my head, burying my face deeper into his chest. Embarrassment coursed through me. The memory of what had just transpired between us replayed in my mind, leaving me flustered. I couldn't look him in the eye, not yet.Anton, ever calm, held me close. His arms wrapped securely around me, and his fingers combed gently through my hair, lulling me into a fragile sense of peace."Live with me," he whispered, his warm breath brushing against my ear.I froze for a moment before resting my cheek against his chest, my voice barely audible. "I can't.""Then at least work in my company," he said, his tone coaxing but firm. "That’s your dream, isn’t it?"I lifted my head fully this time, meeting his eyes. His words struck a chord deep within me. "How do you know that?" I asked, my brow furrowed in surprise. "You know so much about me—it’s almost unsettling."A playful chuckle escaped his lips. "I do. Want me to li
Claiming What's Mine: A Billionaire Romance CHAPTER 101
His words hit me like a wave, washing away the barriers I had erected around my heart. I felt exposed, raw, but in a way that was strangely liberating. I had spent years feeling trapped, burdened by obligations, and here was Anton, offering me a glimpse of freedom and the possibility of happiness. Taking a shaky breath, I closed my eyes, letting the tears continue to fall. I knew that this moment was a turning point, a decision that could alter the course of my life. Anton's intense gaze was fixed on me, waiting for my response, and I knew he was willing to fight for me, to be the one to save me from the darkness that had enveloped my existence. In a bold move, I took a step forward, closing the distance between us. I reached up and gently placed my hands on his broad shoulders, feeling the warmth of his skin beneath my palms. Anton's eyes widened with surprise, but he didn't pull away. Instead, he leaned in, as if he had been waiting for this moment too. Our lips met in a kiss t

I didn’t say much after that, choosing instead to focus on finishing my meal. Anton, however, spent the entire time watching me, his piercing gaze following every small movement I made. It was unsettling, but I tried my best to ignore it.By the time the last course was served, I was so full I doubted I could take another bite. Still, I felt an obligation to finish—it seemed wasteful not to. But for someone like Anton, leaving food untouched probably didn’t matter at all.I dabbed my lips with a napkin and looked at him. “So,” I started cautiously, “what’s this ‘show’ you said I’ve been missing out on? What’s so important that you had to drag me out tonight?”His lips curved into a smirk, one that made me instantly suspicious. “You’ll find out,” he said cryptically. “But only if you decide to come with me after dinner.”I blinked, unsure whether he was serious or teasing. “Come with you where?”“Just trust me,” he said simply, leaning back in his chair, exuding an air of confidence th
