Her Sunset Billionaires Chapter 31 : The Best Friend
SimoneI was sitting at my desk sifting through new listings when a voice said, "Excuse me, are you Simone?"I looked up to see a tall, attractive black man standing in front of me. He was looking at me with a shit-eating grin that I couldn't quite decipher."Well, damn, I see why Michael is so obsessed with you," he said.I immediately blushed, hoping none of my co-workers were listening. I looked around, and thankfully they were all busy. A couple girls looked the man up and down appreciatively, but otherwise ignored us."I'm sorry, who are you?" I asked lamely, feeling called out."Oh, shit, I'm sorry, I'm being rude as hell."He sat down at the chair in front of me and held out his hand."The name is Alfred. I'm Michael Higtower's best, and only, friend."I laughed at this, and immediately felt at ease."Simone Carter," I answered, giving him my firmest handshake, though his hand swallowed mine up."Oh," he smiled. "I know! You've got my boy in a tailspin. I'v

SimoneAfter the showing, Michael decided to ride with me back to my place. It had been a while since we'd been together, and this felt like the perfect opportunity."Hey," he said softly to me as we sat on the couch together."Hey," I whispered back, moving to lay against his chest.He kissed the top of my head and held me against him."I've missed you," he said. "Everything's been really crazy lately.""I know," I sighed, twisting around so I could look at him. "And we haven't had a chance to talk about… things.""Things," he echoed. "What things should we talk about?I swallowed hard, not even sure how to begin the conversation. It was one thing when there was just Rob. In fact, the last time we'd talked about it, Rob was only a maybe. Now he was becoming a more permanent fixture, and I had to be clear with Michael about it."Well, there are you and me things," I started, then took a steadying breath, "And there are me and Rob things."I felt him nod."And," I

Simone"I don't understand why you want to do this," I whined as Michael gently kissed my neck. He'd spent the better part of the morning trying to convince me of his stupid plan, and I wasn't having it."Because," he murmured into my neck, "It's going to make our relationship stronger.""You and I have very different ideas of what will make a relationship stronger," I complained as his fingers trailed up my leg and close to my sensitive area."I promise you'll enjoy it." I could feel him smiling into my neck, but I still wasn't sure.I pushed him away and stood up, determined to get dressed for the day. He'd been trying to distract me with the promise of sex, but I kept overcoming his deceit. I was absolutely putting my foot down on this."I think it's going to make me feel awkward and uncomfortable, and I'm in a season of life where I'm only doing things that make me happy.""Clearly," he muttered to himself.I turned on him and fixed him with a glare. He raised

MichaelI turned over in bed, trying to hold on to the dream I was having. Simone and I were in a steamy hot tub, completely naked. Her hands were traveling down my body, but every time she'd get close to where I was waiting for her, my damn phone would ring. I pressed 'ignore' three times, but some persistent asshole was determined to keep me from a dream orgasm."What?" I barked groggily into the phone, not bothering to check who was calling."Now, I know you were not raised to answer a phone like that," my mom fussed at me from the other side of the country.I sat up, clearing the sleep from my eyes. I definitely didn't want to think about sex with Simone while I was talking to my mom."Sorry, Ma. I was sleeping," I told her."At this hour?" she asked, forgetting that she was three hours ahead of me on the East Coast. "When you were little, I made you get up every morning at six to make your bed. Now you're sleeping until eight? Have some respect for yourself."I rolle

SimoneMichael, being the ever thoughtful man that he was, invited me, Nick, and Rob to his next home game. I told him that it was a horrible idea, especially considering how much press would be there. He just kissed me and told me that we needed to face this head-on. Whatever that meant.So Nick sent a car for Rob and me and met us there. It was so bizarre, but I was also a little excited. Being around each man was intoxicating enough, but being around all three at the same time was on another level. I felt giddy.Rob and I were escorted to our courtside seats to find Nick, Mandy, and her new boyfriend already there. I hugged Mandy, glad that she was here to support me."You look stunning, babe," she said as we sat down. "Who are you trying to look so good for?" she teased.I was wearing a tight black dress with a Michael Hightower jacket over my shoulders. I'd spoken to Rob and Nick about it, and we all agreed that tonight should be about supporting Michael. I was really st

Simone The second I pulled away from Nick's house, I knew I'd have to avoid the office. Those pictures would probably be online in minutes. Everyone would be talking about me and calling me names behind my back. It wasn't worth the stress today.When we approached my house, I realized I wouldn't be able to stay long. There were dozens of paparazzi camping out in front of my home. I felt sick and violated. Not only had they followed me to Nick's, but now they were invading my sacred place.I asked the driver to pull around to the block behind my house and gave him an extra tip and a five-star rating. Hopefully, that would be enough to keep him from sharing his story of driving around LA's most notorious real estate agent.I walked carefully through my neighbor's backyard, trying to keep my heels from getting stuck in the grass. This was so not how I wanted to be spending my morning, especially after such a good night. Nick was as passionate as Michael and as precise as Rob. He

SimoneA few minutes later, a courier knocked on the door. He had flowers and an envelope from Rob. Mandy took the flowers to put in water, and I opened the envelope.Inside was a note and a credit card with my name on it.'I know this hasn't been easy, but know that I'm always going to take care of you. I've taken the liberty of adding you to my personal account. I want you to buy whatever you want, on me. XO, Rob.'I was overwhelmed. I stared at the platinum card, knowing it probably had no limit. Knowing him, I could probably spend millions of dollars without him even batting an eye. I would never take advantage of him like that, but I was touched that he wanted to take care of me.I showed it to Mandy, who snatched it out of my hand and started waving it around. "We're going shopping, we're getting mani-pedis, we're spending money, we're getting pretty," she sing-songed in an annoying voice."You do know that we're more than capable of doing all of those things without

SimoneI didn't want to go to the office the next day. Lately, I never wanted to go, but I knew that Jake was putting a lot of faith in me. He continued to shrug off the bad press and let Mandy and me take off when we needed to. I'd never had a better boss, and I was grateful.Still, I didn't want to face the women of the office. They could be just as catty and mean as the paparazzi. And that wasn't even including Crystal.Crystal, who called me "slut" the second I walked through the door."I'm just wondering," she said nastily. "Do you do them all at the same time, or do you take turns?"I flipped her off and opened my computer."You can ignore me all you want, but it doesn't change the fact that you're a nasty slut," she called to my back. "I bet you'd sleep with any guy who wanted to buy a house from you."I turned to face her, fixing her with my meanest glare."Did you need something, or do you just have to keep talking until you run out of air?"She smirked at me

NickSimone hadn't come over for two days, but I didn't blame her. I was actually grateful because I was a lot worse off than I thought. I spent most of those two days sleeping and having my assistant bring me food. I'd been f*cking ravenous since I got home.When she finally did come over, though, I was ravenous in a completely different way. We stayed up all night, barely pausing to breathe. There was so much pent-up energy between us after everything that had happened. There were a lot of tears shed. Hers and mine. We agreed to go to counseling because neither of us wanted this experience to control our lives. She admitted that she'd been having nightmares. All the more reason not to sleep.We were lying in bed the next morning, so exhausted but so afraid to close our eyes."I notice your handcuffs are gone," she noted, her eyes heavy with tiredness.I chuckled humorlessly."Yeah, I think I'm a little over that particular kink.""Me too," she admitted with a long ya
Her Sunset Billionaires Chapter 59 : I F*cking Love You
MichaelAfter the hospital, I took Simone back to my place and forced her to take a nap. She'd been up all night. She'd insisted that she was fine, but I didn't believe her. She'd been through hell, and I wasn't letting her ignore what her body needed.When she woke up, though, it was clear that what her body needed was me."Hi," she said when she opened her eyes to see me lying next to her."Hi," I answered, and moved over her so I could place a kiss on her lips.It started slow and soft. We hadn't been together in almost a week, so I was desperate for her. I also knew that she'd been through an ordeal, and I didn't want to push her. She put those fears to rest quickly.Her hand was pressed firmly on the back of my head, and she pulled me as close as I could possibly get. Her tongue swirled around my mouth, tasting every inch of the flesh there. She moaned into my mouth and moved to grind her body against mine, clearly wanting to be closer.I knew what she wanted. She wa
Her Sunset Billionaires Chapter 58 : For Her
NickThe incessant beeping wouldn't stop. It was like a nightmare. I kept feeling around, trying to turn the damn thing off. I grabbed around but didn't find my nightstand. Instead, there was a cold, metal bar and then emptiness.What the hell?I opened my eyes to realize I wasn't in my room, or even in my own home. No, I was hooked up to a machine in a hospital. How did I even get here? Was I dead?No, duh, of course I wasn't dead. They didn't take dead people and hook them up to machines at the hospital. Unless this was hell. There was a very good chance it was hell."You're awake," I heard a voice say sweetly.If I were in hell, this voice certainly wouldn't be here. She was an angel. If I was dead, this was a weird introduction to heaven."Nick," she said more firmly. "Can you hear me?"Simone. Of course. Hers was the sweetest voice I could ever hope to hear."Yeah," I said, realizing my throat was incredibly sore. When was the last time I said anything? "What hap
Her Sunset Billionaires Chapter 57 : Rescued
SimoneNick still hadn't woken up, so I knew Crystal wouldn't do anything to him. I also doubted she'd make a pass at him if he truly protested her advances. She was psycho, but apparently still believed in consent. My biggest fear was what she might do if he did refuse her.I couldn't believe how far-gone Nick still was. They must have given him enough tranquilizer to put down an elephant. It hurt me to see him so helpless. And I was helpless. A million more tears fell from my eyes. I just wanted to go home. I wanted my boys.I was sure I was hallucinating when the door burst open and Michael and Rob ran in. I realized, with startling clarity, that they were, in fact, walking toward me looking horrified.Behind them a group of police officers ran in, guns drawn on Crystal. Rather than putting her hands up, she started laughing hysterically. Psycho bitch.Rob was loosening the gag on my mouth as Michael perched in front of me, reassuring me everything was okay. I could barely

RobI'd had to go home to get my other laptop, which had the right software for what I needed to do. As soon as I had the evidence I needed, I raced to the police station with the USB drive clutched in my hand. On it was all the footage I'd been able to compile of the kidnapping. I'd also managed to get footage of Nick's house with my other software. It wasn't a pretty sight, but it was enough to prove that they were in immediate danger.I walked into the station to find Michael already there, sitting in one of the plastic chairs in the lobby. He looked frustrated and antsy."What's going on?" I asked him."They f*cking want me to go home," he growled. "They said they've got this handled and to let them do their job."I was suddenly furious."What?" I shouted. "Hell no. I'm going to go talk to someone."I went to the front desk, where a very rude officer told me to have a seat and that someone would be with me shortly. I was fuming. Between Michael and me, there was proba
Her Sunset Billionaires Chapter 55 : Fighting for My Life
SimoneWhen I opened my eyes, everything was different. It was the same room, I was sure, but Nick was no longer in a chair. Instead, he was handcuffed to a bed. I pulled against my own bindings and felt cold metal rather than itchy rope.The bitch had handcuffed us both.Speaking of, she was laying in the bed next to Nick, wearing a sheer nightie and little else. I wanted to kill her."Don't touch him," I managed weakly.My body was so exhausted, despite the fact that I'd just woken up. I hadn't had anything to eat or drink since I got here. I had no idea what day it was even.Crystal turned slowly to give me a wicked grin."Oh, Simone," she said. "I'm a lot of things, but I would never take advantage of someone sleeping. I'm not a total whore like you.""For f*ck's sake, Crystal," I groaned. "How are you this mad at me? Or this crazy?"She got out of the bed and stood up, staring me down."I'm not f*cking crazy!" she yelled at me. "You're a nasty slut who wants to
Her Sunset Billionaires Chapter 54 : Something's Not Right
MichaelI looked at the clock again, knowing it wasn't going to say anything different. Simone was over an hour late. She hadn't called, hadn't texted. In fact, I hadn't heard from her since she landed. I tried not to let my imagination get away from me; she was probably just in a dead zone or something where her phone wasn't working. Or, maybe she had jet lag and had taken a nap and overslept. I decided to call Nick. Maybe she was still with him. The line rang several times, but he didn't pick up. What the f*ck? I was ready to punch him in the face for making me worry about her, if that's where she was. I can't believe they wouldn't call if she was going to be late for my night.I decided to make another call"What's up Mike?" Rob answered on the first ring."I wish I knew," I said. "Have you heard from Nick?" I was legitimately pissed. He could have at least called if he was planning on taking more time with Simone. "What's going on?" he asked, confused. "What's up w
Her Sunset Billionaires Chapter 53 : Tied Up
SimoneThere was a pounding in my head, and I was vaguely aware that something wasn't right. I couldn't quite remember what, though. All I could remember was being on a plane with Nick. Had I fallen asleep? Did we crash and die?No, that wasn't right. We landed. He took me home. He was coming back to see me and…And what?Something had happened to me, but it was just out of my mental grasp. Had I passed out? I'd been really upset about Michael. Michael! I thought he was at the door.Michael wasn't at the door. Nick wasn't at the door. But someone had knocked, right?My head was swimming with thoughts that I couldn't quite hold onto. The second a thought entered my head it was gone again. Everything was hazy and dark.And my legs and arms felt broken. Maybe not broken, but definitely in the wrong place. I must have passed out, that must be what I couldn't remember.I tried to move my arms, but they were stuck. Was I paralyzed? No, not paralyzed. I definitely had the abil
Her Sunset Billionaires Chapter 52 : Wouldn't Change a Thing
SimoneNick dropped me off at my house, promising to come back and spend the night after he went home and grabbed a few things. I was still reeling from the news and so heartbroken. I truly wondered why these men would risk everything for me. I really wasn't worth it.The first thing I did when I walked through the door was call Mandy."Hey, babe," she said brightly. "I thought you'd be too busy buried in Nick Morgan's taint to call me tonight.""Mandy," I sobbed, and her tone instantly changed to concern."What's going on, Simone? Who do I need to kill?""Michael is getting cut from the team because of me," I told her miserably. "The new team owners think our relationship is bad for their brand.""They f*cking what?" she roared. "Oh, that's bullshit! I bet we could file a lawsuit against them."I could picture her getting on her computer to start Googling the legalities of the action. It wouldn't matter, though. One way or another, Michael's job was in jeopardy because
