Entangled with the Billionaire Evading Him
Scarlett murmured her thanks to the server and left the line. She had managed to evade Mr. Grayson all day, which was no easy feat. She spent the better part of her day holed up in the restroom until lunchtime. After much internal deliberation, she decided to come out for lunch. If there was one place she wouldn't find Mr. Grayson, it would be at the cafeteria. She saw the girls from the legal department sitting at their usual spot but decided against joining them at the last minute. She could not deal with them, not right now, not in this mood. She spotted Benjamin at the end of the hall, sitting by himself. She walked up to his table and sat across from him. He furrowed his brows and leaned forward, and asked her, "Are you okay?" She replied, "Yes, are you?" and dug into her food, glancing behind her between bites. They ate in silence for a while before he broke it, asking, "Have you met Mr. Grayson? What do you think of him?" She almost spat out her food and immediately cover
Entangled with the Billionaire Meeting Cameron Grayson (1)
Scarlett gave herself the biggest pep talk of her life and managed to show up at work the next week. Thankfully, Mr. Cameron Grayson was not at the office, and she was more than relieved when she found out. In the following days, she made the extra effort to avoid him. It was taxing, but it was all worth it in the end. Her relationship with Lucious had improved because she took up all his errands, which took her out of the office for hours. Lucious was more than happy to oblige her. At the end of the day, she felt exhausted, but it was all for the best. Of course, she was not stupid to think she was going to be able to carry it on for long. She worked in the Grayson’s office, and it would be impossible to avoid Mr. Grayson completely. However, she was going to drag it on for as long as she could, until she was mentally ready. She shuddered at the thought of it. Could she ever be mentally ready?Benjamin had been helpful too. He still was confused as to why and always had a worried ex
Entangled with the Billionaire Meeting Cameron Grayson (2)
He chuckled and turned his attention back to the file and peered at it. “It says here, your name is Scarlett Knowles...” he looked up at her, with a squint of his eyes. “You sure do look like a Scarlett.” His eyes darted back to the file in his hand. “You’re twenty-six, from Springfield, and you’re single...” he looked up at her, that damned smirk on his lips. The smile on his face widened. He went back to the paper in his hand. “You have no children...” Her heart tugged as she thought of Levi. She absolutely loved him but she had to keep him a secret, more so now. She bit down on the inner corner of her mouth, not wanting to betray her true emotions. It was best no one found out about Levi, especially... “Are you stalking me, Scarlett?” he asked suddenly. “Did you track me down to my office after all these years and get a job in a bid to get to me?” Her eyes narrowed, she pressed her lips together in anger, her face flushed with rage as she stomped tow
Entangled with the Billionaire The Kind Gesture (1)
Lucious was dressed in white wide-legged pants and a matching jacket, the neckline of the jacket was deep, showing his bare chest. His hair was braided into big cornrows, and he was carrying a purse in one hand with his tablet, while the other hand was in the pocket of his trousers. As he walked past some employees, they cleared a path for him. No one wanted the attention of Lucious, especially not in the morning. He looked away from the tablet in his hands, his eyes taking in the environment. A pleased smile crept up on his lips as he heard the small whispers among the employees, everyone clearly avoiding his path. His smile widened; he loved his job. When he got to the elevators and it opened, two men were inside. As soon as they saw him, they scurried off, leaving him all alone. He shook his head in amusement as he walked into the elevator.He was fixated on his tablet, and when he walked into Grayson’s office, he almost bumped into Cameron. “Mr. Grayson…” He called out in a fluster
Entangled with the Billionaire The Kind Gesture (2)
As soon as he walked out of the doors, a small group of people followed closely behind him. “Mr Grayson!” “Please excuse me, Mr. Grayson...” “Sir, can we get your opinion on our new company policies for the financial year?” He turned in the direction of the voice. “Shannon, you know you can just file those to my office, right?” She smiled sheepishly and tucked her hair behind her ear.“Mr. Grayson, you have to make a social appearance, it has been a long time coming, and the people are thirsty...” someone asked in a high-pitched voice. Cameron stared at the lady who had asked the question. She had a stick sweet in her mouth, she made popping sounds occasionally. He would have been so uncomfortable if they were alone and she was looking at him just like she was now. “I have a P.A, that handles matters like this...” He peeked behind him, “Where is Lucious when I need him?” “Lucious is kind of hard to reach...” she drawled out. He sighed, “Get it to him, please.” He continued walk
Entangled with the Billionaire Spontaneous Shopping Spree.
Lucious held an umbrella over Cameron’s head, as he struggled to keep up with his long strides, “Remind me, why are we doing this again, Mr. Grayson.”Cameron was flanked on each side by hefty bodyguards, dressed in black suit and dark shades. “It is a kind gesture for an employee...”He gritted his teeth as he looked up at the large boutique. It was fancy, quite alright but Cameron never did his shopping, let alone shop for a lady, “Couldn’t we have had someone else do the tedious work for us, Mr. Grayson. I mean...” He held the door open for him, “I can surely think up a thousand other ways you should be spending your time.”Cameron squeezed his shoulders. “I do enjoy spontaneous acts like this.” He replied before walking in.Lucious touched the shoulder where Cameron’s hands had been, he bit down on his lower lips and sucked in a breath before rushing to meet up with him.As soon as they walked in, a couple of shop attendants rushed towards them, with a wide grin that almost reache
Entangled with the Billionaire The Dress Gift (1)
Scarlett exhaled and smoothed her dress before knocking on the door. She took a moment to steady her breathing before walking in. He looked up at her as soon as she did. “You were standing outside for a while.” She frowned. He turned his laptop screen around, showing a still image of her outside his office, capturing her table and chair too. Her frown deepened. She couldn’t tell for certain if it was okay to have cameras in her office, but nothing was okay or normal about what Cameron was doing. She was mandated to stop by his office every morning when she came in. “Good morning, Mr. Grayson,” she greeted before turning around to leave. “Scarlett...” She spun around. "We have an external meeting to attend together in 45 minutes from now. I need you to change into that dress,” he pointed at a dress that was hung in the corner. She hadn’t seen it until he pointed at it. “And join us at the parking lot.” Her mouth ga
Entangled with the Billionaire The Dress Gift (2)
Those words hung in the air, even after he left the room.The way he said them, the piercing stare of his beautiful grey eyes, his deep baritone voice that had sent tingles down to her toes. Those words held a deeper meaning, a promise. There was nothing casual about the words he said...She exhaled and slumped on the chair across from his, resting her head on the table. The mental gymnastics going on in her head was exhausting. Her brain was working overtime, trying to make sense of the man that was Cameron Grayson. What was he thinking per time? What was the end goal? Why did he keep tethering at the edge, what was he getting out of all of this? She groaned and stretched on the table. The questions were endless. How long would he continue? Would they ever have a normal working relationship, or would he never stop with his subtle jabs and...Her head shot up suddenly, she looked towards the corner of the wall, and just like she guessed, there was a camera

Entangled with the Billionaire The Devil
Lucious arrived fashionably late, as always, for Mrs. Grayson’s birthday celebration. Through no fault of his own, his flight had been delayed. He rushed in when the party was already underway, grabbed a glass of champagne, and blended in with the merry crowd. His eyes searched the room for familiar faces, and then he spotted her: Scarlett Knowles.She looked beautiful in the blue and white floral dress she was wearing. He rushed towards her, grabbed her shoulders from behind, and exclaimed, “Hello, Scarlett!”She turned around sharply, her eyes widening in excitement. “Lucious! You got here late. I was beginning to think you wouldn’t come anymore!”He rolled his eyes. “I had the most hectic flight, you won’t believe it…” He let out a big exhale and fanned himself with his hands. “The flight got delayed, and we encountered some difficulties on the way here. I should have just listened to Mr. King's advice and flown private…”Scarlett gave him a knowing gaze. “Mr. King, huh?”Lucious g
Entangled with the Billionaire Happy birthday!
“Happy birthday to you...” Everyone's voices rose together in a slightly off-key rendition of "Happy Birthday."Belinda beamed, glowing as her family and friends sang together for her. They were all gathered at a hall in the resort. Her birthday celebration was a small, cozy event. At the end of the rendition, everyone stepped forward to personally wish her a happy birthday and hug her.Her husband, Mr. Grayson walked up to her, beaming with smiles. He opened a jewelry box and revealed a diamond necklace. “I had one especially made just for you, there’s only one special gem, just like you...” He leaned close and kissed the top of her head.There were a lot of "aww's" from the crowd.She shut her eyes. “Thank you, my love.”Her grandchildren, Loretta and Levi, had brought gifts for her: handmade cards and letters. It was the cutest thing. Levi’s gifts were mostly illegible scribblings, while Loretta’s were more meaningful, but she loved and appreciated every one of them.Cameron and Va
Entangled with the Billionaire Siblings
Vanessa walked into the lounge, her hands folded across her chest, “Cameron! Cameron!” She yelled aloud as she walked in.He rolled his eyes, “Nessa, it says relaxing lounge for a reason,” he gestured towards the sign at the door.She glanced at it and back at her scruffy-looking brother, “Yes, I can see that it clearly says relaxing lounge and has a no alcohol policy so what’s that about?” she pointed at the half-full bottle of whisky by his side.He exhaled, “Does it matter? We bought out the whole place. The rules don’t apply anymore.”She walked up to him, “I don’t think that’s how rules work, but you’ve never been one to abide by any rule ever, so I can’t say I’m surprised.”He groaned, the last thing, okay maybe not the last thing. The second to last thing he wanted to hear was his sister’s bickering. The last thing was definitely his mother's voice chiding him for something, “What are you here for, Vanessa?”She gave him a long look. He lay on the couch, his hair overgrown, spo
Entangled with the Billionaire Club Dazzle 3
Cameron bit down on his lips, liking the way she called out his name softly. It made him rock hard. “I want to bend you over right now, right here, and make love to you until your body shakes in excitement. I’d like to hear you cry out my name as you beg me to make love to you, knowing no other man will ever give you pleasure like I would, knowing it will never be enough…”Scarlett let out a small squeak. He spun her around until she was facing him and pulled her close. Her breasts were pressed up against him, almost spilling out of her dress. He stared at them with a burning look of desire in his eyes.Jaxon was fuming where he stood. Somewhere in the middle of the song, he had stopped pretending like he wanted to dance. He just stopped and stared at them. His hands were clenched into fists. Cameron’s hands were roaming, whispering into Scarlett’s ears, and she looked like she was enjoying it, every bit of it. Her eyes were shut, and she was leaning into Cameron. She had no fear for
Entangled with the Billionaire Club Dazzle 2
It was going to be fun, alright! Cameron gulped down two more shots, loving the burn of the liquid as it trickled down his throat. This was what he needed. He turned around to leave. Jaxon finalized their order before he left.Cameron was only halfway towards Scarlett and Hadley when a familiar song came on the speakers. He stopped in his tracks to listen, his lips curling into a small smile. He looked up to meet those bright blue eyes staring at him with flushed cheeks. He knew exactly what she was thinking about at the moment. He walked up to her and grabbed her, “Shall I have the first dance, Scarr?”Scarlett looked around in worry.Hadley opened her mouth in protest, “Cam—”“Oh, it’s only an old-fashioned dance, love,” he cut in. “It will be good for us, remember?” he used her exact words against her.Hadley frowned.“What the hell, man?” Jaxon protested when he saw Cameron was holding hands with her.Cameron spun around to face Jaxon, still holding onto her. “Oh, it’s only a danc

As they got out of the car, Hadley leaned forward, cupped his cheeks, and kissed him, “This will be good for us.”Cameron stared at her hesitantly.“I promise.” She leaned into him, grabbed his hand, and put it around her waist, “You’ve been stuck up all day, overthinking, worrying...” She pulled at his cheeks, “You’re beginning to have worry lines. You’re in need of a good rest…”He gave her a look.She burst into soft laughter, “Yes, you need rest and you’ll rest later tonight. You’re also in need of some fun. I don’t think you have enjoyed any bit of our trip here. You can’t keep wallowing in your problems, let loose and let’s party!”He glanced at the neon flashing sign; it read Club Dazzle. They had driven a long way to find the club. Apparently, it was a hotspot for tourists. He could easily blend in without being noticed, and maybe that was what he needed. A night without Scarlett, a wild night drinking and dancing might just be enough to stop thinking about her. He hardly beli
Entangled with the Billionaire Love petals
Jaxon peered into the room with a frown on his face, “Are you sure the petals are enough?” he asked.The young brunette girl nodded, “There isn’t a lot to work with here. The twin-sized beds don't really help..."” She trailed off.His frown deepened, “Have you checked with the staff? Are there no available rooms?”She nodded, “This resort is fully booked by the Graysons. The neighboring lodges are fully booked at this time of year. The nearest hotel room is two hours away…”Damn you, Cameron! Jaxon cursed under his breath. His plans to take Scarlett to bed were getting frustrating each and every day. He hated sleeping next to her yet unable to touch her. She usually slept with her back to him and a blanket covering her head. It was like she was taking extra care to get further away from him as she possibly could. There were no other rooms available, and he had no car to make the two-hour journey.He had to improvise and make do with what he had. He couldn’t continue to hold back, it w
Entangled with the Billionaire Behind Locked Doors
Cameron stepped out for a walk, and this time he truly needed the time alone and the fresh air. He needed to settle with his thoughts and clear his head. He had walked for a long distance, without his phone or his headphones, and then a thought hit him, Levi! He had been so caught up in his life falling apart; he hadn’t given his son much thought. He walked straight to the suite he shared with Ms. Sharma, and to his amazement, Scarlett was there.She stared wide-eyed at him when he walked in. She was sitting on the bed, with Levi in her arms. Ms. Sharma was giggling about something she said; she stopped when she saw him.Cameron took in her appearance. She was wearing a pale pink robe, her hair was tied up in a messy bun atop her head. Her suite was not far from Levi’s, so she had probably made a quick stop. He had hoped to catch her alone since the first day he spotted her at the airport. He had memorized a long list of questions he hoped to ask her when he did, m
Entangled with the Billionaire Lost in thoughts
Hadley stared at her reflection in the mirror, her blonde hair styled to perfection and cascading in waves down her back. She reapplied her bright red lipstick and admired her reflection in the mirror. She had on lacy lingerie that left next to nothing to the imagination. Of course, it was bright red lingerie. Red was Cameron's favorite color, something she had learned only a few hours ago, which was pathetic. But she wasn’t going to put herself down, not today. Today was great, she and Cameron had gotten a lot closer. She had half-expected him to push her off when she started kissing him earlier, but he didn’t. He let her, all of that in front of Scarlett. She would be dumb not to get the message that Cameron was hers and hers alone.As if on cue, the doors opened, and he walked in. He froze and stared at her. For some unexplainable reason, she was unnerved by his piercing stare. She had done this a couple of times. She was a model, being seductive was her job. S
