We visited not a great deal and at some point, throughout the flight, I ended up resting on Blake’s shoulder and allowing my sore body to relax a bit. Only the first time we were together had I felt this way and it was the happiest soreness I could have. It still wore on my body and I found myself drifting to sleep.

I was suddenly in a very vivid dream and a dark alley with a man at the end. I walked towards him trying to figure out who it was. Right as I got close to the man, he turned around quickly and I realized it was Curtis. I took a step back and now there was a brick wall behind me leaving me trapped with the only way to go being through him. I knew he was stronger than me so there wasn’t much I could do.

“All of this is all your fault.” He glared piercing into me and I felt frightened. “You just had to tell everyone who I was and now you are going to pay!”

I felt myself gasp in terror and then out of nowhere behind Curtis there was Blake and S

    I looked out the window from my bedroom and saw Blake and Kate coming up the drive. I was sure they had more to tell me about Curtis and my whole body felt unstable. I had felt numb for the last two days since we’d left the beach house. I hadn’t started doing some reflection however and started to realize in my mind that I may have not truly known Curtis or for that matter loved him. I had been so caught off the card by Curtis when I first met him because I wasn’t sure if love or a real relationship was for me. He was so polite, cute, and charismatic that I was drawn to the idea of someone like him wanting me. Now that I had some space from him, I realized I was being fooled the whole time by a really good con artist. If anything at this point I was more embarrassed than anything and that part were very hard to admit to anyone even my family. I was dreading visiting with Blake because there was always the possibility with my overly powerful and connected brother that he kn

    We left Susan feeling a bit defeated by finding out a bit more about Curtis and concerned that nobody had been able to find him. I did my best to empower her while we visited it and it did seem to help. I did know at this point Susan was going to be okay and that was the best we could ask for at this point. Still, I couldn’t help but worry about Curtis but did my best to try to put it out of my mind while we had dinner with Blake’s family. We all visited about going to the beach with the family and Blake’s parents seemed to just enjoy hearing from their children and held hands while they listened. I added in a few comments but kept watching Blake’s parents and realized how beautiful it was to just watch parents have the opportunity to take in their children’s adult interactions, and stories and truly was memorized by how close they all were. I found myself quiet the rest of the evening but did take time to help with dishes with his mother who made small

  • Falling for the CEO   Coming Home

    We made it to my apartment shortly before 10 pm and I was exhausted. The whole day was quite busy and overall we’d still managed to have sexual encounters three times during the day. We had been busy since I’d said I was all in. I still was trying to decide what all that meant and knew Blake was way more ready to shop for houses than I was but I wasn’t going to let that bother me because tonight Blake Sutton was staying at my small apartment after I’d found out he lived in a tiny room in his building. In some ways it made sense and in others, I was completely blown away by the revelation. It also made me realize we’d be spending a lot more time at my apartment. Blake packed some clothes and we entered my tiny apartment building. Chad probably was at a gig, Laura I’m sure was at work, Mia and her parents had to be asleep as was Mike getting ready for his next day of work, and typically that meant Marvin was fast asleep as well. That left Mrs. Flora and I was surprised t

  • Falling for the CEO   Mischief Monday

    Blake and I got to work on time and I even allowed us to walk in together although with none of the hanky panky he wanted. I had to have a few limits and that was keeping things at home if I could also keep myself under control. Luckily it was easy to do on Monday as I ended up swamped with meetings and it seemed so was Blake. It was good work though and I made new plans to reevaluate the other manager’s advertising to more what they were wanting now and plans to keep it going in the future. My team was already busy and I was even able to get a few more interviews completed with plans to send over a hiring plan for human resources. Throughout the day Blake sent me a few texts, nothing too much except for the one where he told me to look out the balcony. Sure enough, there was a gentleman outside in the balcony area putting down grass and a luxurious dog house. I already knew what he had tried to plan from the get-go and realized this was the little piece I was g

  • Falling for the CEO   The week

    The week continued like this with us taking the opportunity after every one to be together. Blake was living out of a suitcase and although not ideal I didn’t know what other options there were. Still, it wasn’t anything I wanted to complain about because it was so easy to connect and spend time together. We’d even spent quite a bit of time with my apartment family which was exciting to me because they all seemed to embrace Blake. All of them at one point or another told me how much they approved of him and how he was the one. I knew at some point probably sooner than later that part of the conversation was going to come up with Blake. I wasn’t quite ready for it so I did my very best to avoid it and I was lucky that so far Blake hadn’t pushed the subject just continued with some subtle hints such as sending me a few listings of homes via e-mail. He never brought up to talk about it but just said in his e-mail that he just wanted my opinion. On Wednesday

  • Falling for the CEO   The Meeting Table

    Blake looked over at me with a menacing grin. “Kate, I was hoping to discuss something important with you first thing this morning. What luck that you are in the elevator. Could we please meet in your office right away? “ “Of course, I will always make time for my CEO,” I smirked back at him already imagining him inside me causing my body to flush. “Wonderful.” I knew it was all part of the game and I was rather enjoying myself so I was sure to be the first one out of the elevator so he could stare at my butt he followed behind with a large smile as he was met with employees as we walked and answered questions. I looked back and made sure he saw me biting my lip and I swear his pace increased instantly. I greeted Monique and told her that Blake had requested to meet with me right away so please do not disturb us. She happily agreed as she greeted Rosco and me and handed me a few messages to go over. I went into my office a

  • Falling for the CEO   Date

    I ducked out early after having Monique schedule an appointment with the stylist on the lower floor complete with makeup and hair. I couldn’t help spoil myself a little because I didn’t do much and truly wanted to look my best tonight because it was our official first date. Well, since I said I was “All in”. Blake gave me till 6 pm so I had roughly about 3 hours to pick a dress, get ready, and get my makeup and hair. I was happy it was the same stylist and they went to work right away. I selected a black dress because it was of course a little black dress always made a woman feel good. It was form-fitting and went right above my knee up. The top had shoulder straps with cuts out around the shoulders and right around the front where my cleavage was another cutout. The sleeves went down to the elbow and then flared out into a lengthy ruffle. I selected high-heeled strappy sandals and knew my stylist would take care of the rest for accessories. I was happy with my outfit and went righ

  • Falling for the CEO   Date Continued

    We got off the boat and made our way back to the car. “Where are we going now?” I checked the time and it was around 9:00 PM. “Kate I want to surprise you.” Blake smiled and kissed my cheek. “Okay then.” I smiled and looked out at the city pondering my fears and why I couldn’t just tell Blake what I felt but it was a bit difficult. Blake leaned in and looked out the same window as me leaning his head on my shoulder, “So what are we looking at?” “Just admiring the city.” I snickered. “Goofball.” “Goofball?” He gave me a quick tickle in my ribs and made me laugh harder. “Okay, I surrender.” Putting my hands up. “Careful I will take that surrender as a lot more.” He wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me locking me into an almost high school make-out session. Blake slowly started making his hand up my dress and I wasn’t doing a very good job of stopping him.

    Blake and I hugged and kissed for quite some time engulfed in what kind of commitment we just made to each other. To be honest I couldn’t be more ecstatic when Blake grabbed my hand and said we needed to go see everyone for our dinner plans. I knew he had thought of everything as he walked me through our spacious outside area and onto one of our terracotta patios streamed with lights above and now placed was a large table with all of our friends and family including Blake’s parents and also Laura! I thought she had been extended a week and I ran over to her instantly giving her a giant hug as everyone stood up and clapped and yelled congratulations. “I thought you were in the hospital for another week.” “Eh, I couldn’t help but surprise you!” She laughed and we hugged again. “Kate I’m so happy for you and thank you for showing me what happiness really could be. I have one more surprise for you.” “What is that? Are you alright?” I cou

  • Falling for the CEO   The proposition

    The rest of the week flew by with Mrs. Flora and Tiffany mainly taking up my time. It was amazing how fast Tiffany was working and our Master Bedroom was practically complete with maybe a few touches here and there. When I complimented her on how fast she was working she only shrugged and said this is what is expected if you work with Blake Sutton. I had to agree with that as Blake moved quickly. He spent much of his time now in our Master Bedroom in the afternoon with me doing what work he allowed me to do lying in bed on my laptop. We spent our evenings many times with Mrs. Flora and Russ having dinner and it stopped feeling like Russ ever worked for Blake just more friends. Laura’s hospital stay was extended another week as her wrist fracture developed an infection but she was more upbeat than I’d heard in a while. The biggest news on that front was that Jason had stopped over in the middle of the week looked at the other apartment and said he was moving in. Bla

    I woke up the next morning at the same time I normally do for work 5:00 AM and started out taking a quick shower alongside Blake which was very businesslike in Blake’s mind as he informed me we had to wait until later for any good time action. Then I focused on work for several hours before Blake gave me at least a passionate kiss before leaving. On-time of his leave I started doing some research so I’d be ready for the designer to come around 9:00 AM for a light breakfast while we discuss some color schemes and plans. Time snuck up on me quickly and before I know it Alice was asking me to come down to the dining table where the designer was. I wore comfy clothes again, simple leggings and a nice sweater that allowed my sports bra to stick out but were oh so snuggly which is something I needed at the moment. I walked in and felt completely underdressed as the designer was dressed to the nines with calf size Black healed boots and a beautiful brown suit. I realized I

  • Falling for the CEO   Making Plans

    The new housekeeper Anna was amazing and the food was delicious. I had to give it to Russ and Blake they knew how to pick people to do their bidding. I spent the night talking to Blake and walking through our new home trying to decide certain things we wanted to have to happen such as an office space in our bedroom that could be utilized for two if needed. The face was that work was important to us, especially now and we wanted to still be able to be close to the other, plus at this point, we were both getting pretty used to working side by side at home. I worried about my apartment mates and especially Laura but I was able to send her a few messages and found out she wouldn’t be getting out for a few more days. Now that we were able to talk I learned that she had suffered several broken ribs, a broken wrist, and ankle, and way too many scars emotionally and physically. Still, the way Laura talked about Jason I was hopeful she might just accept an offer to live in our

  • Falling for the CEO   The Christening

    I wake up and realize Blake is snuggling against me and look down to see Rosco must have gone for his adventure outside. I love the idea of him being outside whenever he wants now and there are no more worries for anyone. I can’t help but embrace this luxury of the many luxuries that have been coming right along with us. Feeling Blake against me I take in his warmth and muscular arms and I start realizing that everything is going to be okay if I want it to be. I take a minute and push back all my fears and worries from the last week and turn myself to Blake. He is lightly nappy so I know I could wake him up if I wanted. I feel his chiseled jaw and outline it with my hands and then go down his black muscle shirt pulling it up and allowing my hands to go over his beautiful six-pack. I can’t help but think to myself this man is secretly a model or something and know this is why all those magazines call him one of the most eligible bachelors. I realize I should take mor

    We pulled up to 1500 Lakeshore Drive and I was in shock at how large the building was. I hadn’t even realized that the penthouse was on the 21st Floor and although it didn’t seem as high as some buildings it was pretty large because most of the apartments had vaulted ceilings. We walked up to the door and were greeted instantly by a very well-dressed doorman. He was very polite and asked to guide us to our new home. Second, later the building manager was there greeting us and extending his invitation to come with us as well. We were also already extended a co-op invitation by the board members who make the decisions on who officially gets to live in said building. It was a bit much but I had to admit it seemed like everyone wanted to cater to us rather than upset us and I knew they were all pleased that Blake Sutton of Sutton Enterprises was living in their building. I felt a bit underdressed for the door greeting as I’d just gotten out of the hospital and was weari

  • Falling for the CEO   The Hunt

    “We are looking for the impossible!” I shoved the computer further down my lap in frustration as I sat on my hospital bed. Blake and I had been looking at homes online for the last day. I was almost excited at the process but there were some not-so-easy requirements that we both agreed needed to be met. Blake didn’t want to live in the suburbs he wanted to be in the city but that also made it difficult to find some yard space for Rosco. Both of us agreed on the idea that Rosco needed a yard and I was grateful that Blake could get on board with that plus there were a lot of other things we were looking for or should I say Blake was looking for. Suddenly the guy who lived in a storage room bedroom as I called it now wanted space for at least 4 vehicles and he had to have a living space for Russ plus if he wanted to have other security available or personnel he wanted them to have options. I had no idea how that was possible but he kept looking at these insanely priced homes that were

  • Falling for the CEO   Recovery

    It has been two days since and I was recovering nicely. I was being pumped full of antibiotics to ensure my body did not get an infection from the bullet. I also was doing physical therapy and was able to do most everything easily at this point despite the pain. I was determined to not allow Curtis Montgomery to have any more of me and with any luck, I’d be out by Sunday is what the doctors told me. Blake had been amazing and so supportive. He brought me everything I could use for work and even though the doctors wanted me to rest I still took plenty of opportunities to respond to e-mails, approve projects and set up meetings for next week. I know the doctors frowned on it but even Blake tried to tell them that it would stress me out more if I was too behind at work. I was grateful for how great he was even though part of me felt guilty for how much time I was taking away from his work. He wouldn’t even listen to me though about being alone and he refused to leave from more than t

  • Falling for the CEO   The Awakening

    My eyes burned and it was difficult to open them. I tried to slowly feel around to figure out where I was and what was happening. As soon as I started to open my eyes I felt my hand being grabbed. “Kate, Kate are you waking up? Nurse, she is waking up!” “Blake?” My eyes burned but I finally was able to open them up. I started thinking I might have been in a car wreck or something but my memories started floating in quickly almost too quickly and my eyes started crying. “It's me, Kate. Kate my sweet don’t cry.” I heard other voices walk in and one asked for Blake to walk away. “Please don’t leave me, Blake.” “I won’t Kate I will just be right of here why they check you out.” I started to focus my eyes and saw what looked like a physician and two nurses checking my vitals. “Hello, Kate I’m Dr. Buchannan. You gave us quite a scare there! You didn’t want to wake up from surgery.” “Surge
