“Thank you,” I murmur.His thumbs dig into my shoulders, and I melt into the bench with a soft groan. He inhales sharply. Strong hands sweep over my sides, down my back, to the base of my spine, where he presses, the way Ana showed him. And then lower. Oh, god. He’s so close. He kneads the side of m
Long fingers circle my ankles, and he yanks me to the edge of the table. “I need to taste you.”“Please, Michael.”“Oh, no. Don’t beg me, baby. This is all for you.”He pushes my legs apart and buries his face between them. At the first touch of his tongue, I cry out. He swirls the tip gently, right
MichaelI can already tell that tonight’s event is going to be messy. The crowd seems to know each other now, after a few days of mingling, and the conversation is flowing. Richard and Harold have created some sort of drinking game in the corner of the ballroom, and they’re getting rowdier by the mi

LillyI wake with a blanket of man draped over me. Michael’s heavy arm is over my stomach, and his chest is a warm wall against my back. Crisp hairs and hard muscle and smooth skin. Gosh, his heat feels delicious. I want to wriggle back and burrow into him.He shifts, and his hard length presses aga

“Rodrigo and Jade are perfect for one another.” Jule smiled. Tony chuckled. “I think everything we did for them worked out, starting from that text you sent me telling me to encourage the dinner plan. After Rodrigo mentioned where he was going for dinner, I ensured we went to the same restaurant he
“Why?” “It was named ‘Playing by Her Rules’.” He smiled, understanding her hint. “And just like that lioness in that painting, I will always protect you.” Now it was his turn to laugh out loud. And she loved it. She loved seeing him like this, carefree and so much at ease. “You are magnificent,

He turned to Kabier and Sameer. “Thank you for your support that day. You guys stood by me when you didn’t need to. You were ready to battle your wives for me, and I appreciate that.” Kabier shrugged. “We all needed closure on your silly and childish squabble with our women.” Sameer nodded. “Besid
Soon after Jade had proposed to him, Rodrigo had whisked her off to Delhi and to his home. He’d finally slept properly again with her in his arms. His insomnia was a thing of the past now. Jade had even returned to work at FF. His woman was brilliant. One day, he was certain, she’d head the FF team

He swallowed through the lump in his throat. “I’m glad you pushed me away. Seeing you with Ayden opened my eyes. I hated it when he touched you. My heart burned when he touched your hair. Seeing you with him made me realize what a colossal fool I’d been. I figured that to get you back, I had to try
“Yes.” “Uh, okay…” He couldn’t for the life of him understand what was going on. She tilted her head to study him. “Once upon a time, there was a girl who fell in love with a prince, and they were happy for a while. But then he rejected her. Again and again.” His muscles tightened. He understood
