The morning

Author: Joy Pasquel
last update Last Updated: 2021-07-26 05:37:42
That morning I sent Monique a quick text letting her know I would be off that day to which she indicated she’d already known. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised as it seemed Blake had a handle on most things. Rosco and I started our day like normal greeting Mrs. Flora and I mentally tried to prepare myself for a day of pampering. It was not something I often did because when my parents were alive they were both busy with work life and although there was an occasional day my mom would enjoy with me, it wasn’t often. I did like to be girly and enjoy nice things but my parents always indicated many of those things were frivolous and not always something that needed to be done. I took girly things as a thing I would only enjoy occasionally as they had both truly pushed me to be head of the game when it came to school rather than anything else. I had stuck to that trend and now was more focused on work than anything else if I wanted to be on top of the game I needed to stay focused.

  • Falling for the CEO   Spa Day

    The spa was wonderful and everyone was very gracious. I was quickly surprised at the start as the first person I was directed to be a personal designer. She was cheerful and helpful and more than willing to help. “I have picked out five dresses that would be suitable for this evening’s festivities. The first thing is to have you try them on so I can make any adjustments so it fits you perfectly by this evening.” I guess Blake did have everything planned out. It wasn’t something I was used to and it took a lot of encouragement in my head to allow someone else to start making choices for me. I realized I needed to start enjoying this treatment rather than dreading it so I put on my best positive attitude and took a look. “I’m guessing by looking at you that you are a size 6?” The designer asked quizzically. “Yes, how did you know that?” “Oh honey, it is what I do!” As she eagerly clapped her hands for herself, proud of her guessing I couldn’t blame her as

  • Falling for the CEO   Limousine – Blake POV

    She stood there staring at me waiting for me to do something but I was truly stunned by how sexy and gorgeous she was. I felt my erection getting hard just looking at her and I was doing everything in my power at that moment not to take her right here in the middle of a spa. Kate was the whole package and what was hotter than anything was that she didn’t know it. Kate was driven and had been clear since the moment that I first saw her and heard her speak everything was always well thought out and well-spoken even when you tried to fluster her it was difficult to do so. I loved her challenge of her and was so eager to have her. Then I realized one time wasn’t enough because after I came out of the fog of 7 years ago learning things about myself that I never had even questioned before I realized the one thing I still wanted was her and to have all of her even for one more night. I’d already gone further than I thought she would let me taste her and tease her. The way she

  • Falling for the CEO   Limousine – Kate POV

    I was in total shock and just like it had just happened my heart ached for him and I could tell he still had been dealing with it this entire time. I had expected him more to say something about finding out there was a girl pregnant or his parents splitting up nothing like this and knowing now just this much I felt guilty for ever being angry. At the same time, there was a bit of relief, knowing this whole time it wasn’t about me or that night. I felt my anger letting go and just wanted to listen to be there for him. “So your biological mom is what you mean?” “Yes, it turned out her kidneys were failing and she needed a transplant. My brother, Jason, wasn’t a match and he came to make me find out if I was so he could save her.” “Wow”. “So Jason tried just talking to my parents about getting a hold of me but they refused because they never told me I was adopted and didn’t want to. Jason become desperate and it started a cra

  • Falling for the CEO   The Creep

    Blake tensed and I could literally feel the heat rising on his body. Placing my hand on his arm I knew I needed to move quickly before there was a very large scene. “Blake, can I talk to you for a moment, please?” “In a minute,” he said through gritted teeth not letting his eyes off Curtis. Curtis was putting it all quickly together and knew this wasn’t a good situation for him as he seemed to be squirming like the worm he was. Susan and everyone else looked completely baffled by what was happening. I shouldn’t of let the words slip out of my mouth of who Curtis was and the truth was I’d never told Blake the entire story of the subway anyways. I also knew quickly in my mind I did not want to start out meeting his siblings this way. I squeezed my arm so tightly I could feel my nails digging in a tad which at least got Blake to look at me for a minute. “Blake I need to talk to you now,” insisting and pulling his arm away from the table. I had to give a fi

    We exchanged goodbyes and I was glad to see Blake keeping his exposure after the heated debate and I was trying to get him away before saying more to Curtis. I had to give it to Blake his siblings were so kind and polite. It was all so elegant and from what Mel said they made a lot of money to help a lot of families with adoption which warmed my heart. I even made a mental note to make my donation. Right as we were getting ready to leave Blake turned around, “Curtis.” Oh no. Curtis approached very carefully as if he was walking up to an angry tiger which he was. Blake put his hand out to shake his hand. “Curtis, keep being kind to my sister and I hope that you know I am watching to make sure that you are.” I could see the tension in the handshake and I had a pretty good guess that Blake was squeezing much harder than your typical handshake. “Curtis, also know there are a lot of things that will be coming together real soon and I hope you are ready for when they do.” Curtis only nodded

    I woke up to my phone ringing and realized by the time I was more tired than even I knew as it was already 11:00 AM. I was still in a slumber with Rosco snuggling deeper into my leg begging me to not wake up. I was pretty sure we both needed sleep after our very intense week. I didn’t even look before answering I was too dreary. “Hello,” half asleep. “Kate! What’s wrong with you? Are you okay?” It was Blake in a panicked voice. “What, no, I’m fine just sleeping. Why is there something wrong?” I started to wake up. Big Sigh. “Kate, I thought there was something wrong with you because you hadn’t responded. I’ve been texting you and calling you twice.” I glanced at my phone and saw three missed calls, two from Blake and one from a number I didn’t recognize. Then realized there were 10 new messages. “I’m sorry I guess I just crashed been a bit of a crazy week.” I could tell he was calming down

  • Falling for the CEO   The Club Kate's POV

    The club was loud, crazy, and decorated in subway décor with brick walls. The music was blaring from a fairly decent DJ playing all sorts of music mixed up to his pleasure. The bar itself was lighted making it easy for the eye to locate in the chaos and there were also stairs making way to a balcony with tables and chairs and another bar on top for access to drinks. It was a bit younger crowd than I was used to but with Laura, it was always a good time as she was a social butterfly that made you want to embrace your wilder side. Luckily for the inside track as the line was around the block to get in but with Laura’s friend, we got right in and made our way quickly to the bar. I wasn’t a lightweight by any means but I also made a mental note to pay close attention to things such as who was where and how many drinks we had. There was one time when I was with Laura that I let her carry me away and we ended up having to beg our neighbors Mike and Chris to come to save us.

  • Falling for the CEO   The Club Blake's POV

    We took the helicopter back so I could get there quicker Chicago. I was going to find that woman if it was the last thing I did that night. I couldn’t explain how much I wanted to be with her and keep her safe which was such a different feeling for me I couldn’t seem to keep my mind off her as it was at the meeting. I had planned on taking a flight back in the morning but as soon as Kate wouldn’t tell me where she was I had Russ schedule me for the helicopter. It was the quickest way to get to her and according to what I figured I would be back in about 2 hours at the most that were at the beginning of the night though when I was just trying to figure out where she was and what she was doing, now almost at the end of the flight I was anxious to figure it out. I didn’t know Kate’s neighbor Laura but guessed she was the girl I’d passed in the hallway the other day when I first visited Kate at her apartment and Laura seemed a bit rough around the edges. I didn’t want Kate d

  • Falling for the CEO   Wrap up

    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

  • Falling for the CEO   Coming Home

    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
