In Bed With Her Shithead Boss Chapter Thirty-One
The second Blair stepped outside, she felt lighter. Or maybe that was just the reality of what had just happened.It was done. Laura and Dan had just been exposed. The cold air hit her, but she barely felt it. Roman had moved her out of that house quickly, his grip protective. Possessive even.It didn’t make her feel controlled, just safe and wanted, so she let him.Now they stood for a moment on the front porch, the sexual tension still thick between them. She wanted to jump into his arms and she was so focused on him she hadn’t even realized her sisters had moved past them down the three front steps.“You okay?” Roman asked, scanning her face like he was looking for signs of damage.Blair let out a breath. “Yeah. Just...” She gestured vaguely toward the house. “That was a lot.”“You’re telling me.” Keira’s smug and amused voice came from the circular driveway. “Best family dinner I’ve ever been to. Although we didn’t get to actually eat anything.”Blair turned to find Keira and Sut

“Where are we going?” Roman asked, his tone casual, but his grip on the wheel was anything but.Blair barely looked at him. “The diner in town.”Silence settled between them, thick with unspoken tension. Roman followed Keira’s car as the town blurred past with old storefronts, familiar streets to her, but she didn’t pay them any attention.Her fingers tapped restlessly against her thigh. Roman drove with one hand on the wheel, the other resting on his leg, exuding that infuriating calmness that only made her feel more unsettled.Because he was the reason, she was still buzzing. She was angry with him, but she wasn’t at the same time.She hated it.She hated that even now, after everything, he could still make her feel safe and wanted and completely out of control.Roman finally glanced at her. “You’re quiet.”Blair huffed. “Maybe because I don’t know where to start.”“Then just start.” His voice was steady. Unapologetic.Her head whipped toward him. “Fine. What the hell was that Roman

Blair sat in the passenger seat of Roman’s car, arms resting on her thighs, her gaze fixed out the window, though her mind was miles away. The night before was still fresh in her mind, lingering in her bones.Every breath felt like a reminder. A reminder of him, of the heat between them. Every little movement of her body felt like a trace of his touch on her skin. She could still feel him, his lips, the weight of his body, the way he’d claimed her. The way his hands had been everywhere, firm and sure. She was still ever so slightly sore. But in a good way. He had taken her as soon as they walked through the door yesterday and then again in the early morning hours.It had been unreal. Not just the way they’d fit together physically, though, that had been perfect, but the way they seemed to understand each other without saying a word. It felt like something deeper than she’d ever had with Dan. How had she missed that before?Her fingers curled into her palms, the heat from their time to

Blair stored her handbag and placed her phone on her desk before pushing open Roman’s office door, shutting it behind her with more force than necessary.She barely gave him a second to react before stepping forward, arms crossed, her gaze sharp. “You gave us away.”Roman didn’t look up right away. He just leaned back in his chair, exhaling through his nose like he’d expected this. Maybe he had.His voice was calm, unreadable. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”Blair narrowed her eyes, stepping closer. “Kara noticed. She saw it, Roman. The tension.” She’d admit it was partly her fault. “The way you acted. You walked in, handed over the mail, and didn’t even say good morning to me. No hello, nothing. And she knew. It was that obvious.”Roman sighed, rubbing his jaw, finally looking at her. “I wasn’t thinking about it like that. I’m not used to hiding my relationships.”“Exactly,” Blair shot back. “You weren’t thinking. And now she knows about us. She won’t say anything, but it’s

Roman didn’t expect Blair to barge into his office. Well, that wasn’t entirely true.The second he left her and Kara, he knew she’d be pissed. Knew by the way her eyes had flared. After Kara looked at them too long meant she’d put the pieces together. He should have been more careful. He should have walked in like he always did, like she wasn’t the only thing occupying his mind, like he hadn’t spent the last few nights tangled up with her, tasting her.But he couldn’t, not now. He wanted to shout it from the rooftops, but she wanted to hide the fact they were together. It wasn’t sex to him. Roman wanted more than an affair. He had been planning this too long for this to be anything but serious. He just needed to convince Blair of that. So, no, he wasn’t surprised when she shoved the door shut behind her, arms crossed, eyes sharp and full of fire. He wasn’t surprised when she cut straight to the point. “You gave us away.”Roman leaned back in his chair, exhaling through his nose, scho

Roman stepped out of his office, his mind still spinning from the encounter with Jessica. He clenched his jaw as he spotted Blair and Kara talking over Blair’s desk. Blair’s arms were crossed, her expression unreadable, but there was an edge to the way she stood. He could see she was tense.. Kara, on the other hand, looked apologetic, shifting awkwardly on her feet.The moment Kara noticed him, she straightened, opening her mouth, but Roman shook his head. “Don’t,” he said firmly.“I’m really sorry—”“It’s not your fault,” he cut her off. “Jessica is manipulative and has no boundaries. You don’t have to apologize for her.”Kara looked relieved, nodding quickly. Blair, however, kept her gaze steady on him, like she was trying to figure out what was going on in his head. Roman didn’t give her the chance.“Blair. My office. Now.”He didn’t wait for a response, just turned and walked back inside, knowing she would follow. And she did. A moment later, she was shutting the door behind her,

Blair stared at Roman, her heart pounding so hard she was sure he could hear it. Marry him? The words echoed in her head, loud and disorienting. It was insane. Reckless. Completely out of control.And yet, a small, undeniable part of her wanted to say yes.She had just ended her engagement with Dan last week. It felt like whiplash to go from that to standing here, listening to Roman ask her to marry him. But it was different with Roman. Everything about him, the way he touched her, looked at her, challenged her, made her feel something she had never had before.Something intense. Something dangerous.It wasn’t love. Not yet. She wasn’t willing to say that word, not when she’d thought she had loved Dan and look where that had gotten her. But this… what she felt for Roman was more than lust, more than attraction. It was raw, consuming, and completely outside her control.She swallowed hard, trying to focus. “This is crazy.”Roman’s lips curled slightly, but there was no humor in his exp

Roman’s grip tightened on Blair’s hips as he set her down stepping away from her to lock the door before picking her up in his arms again, she clutched at his shoulders as he took measured steps across the room, pressing her back against the cool glass of the floor-to-ceiling windows. The city stretched out behind her, glittering with sunlight, but all she could focus on was the way his body caged hers in, his presence overpowering. The knowledge that it was reflective glass, so anyone looking up or in couldn’t see them only made the moment more intense. Because they could do anything.His fingers trailed up her thighs, slow and deliberate, igniting every nerve along the way. He wasn’t gentle, Roman’s need was to extreme, but she loved that about him. He didn’t pretend. He took what he wanted, and tonight, she was the only thing he wanted.“Take off your dress,” he ordered, his voice dark, edged with impatience. He stepped away to watch her follow his order.Blair’s breath hitched, bu

The SUV cruised smoothly down the highway, the late morning sun casting warm streaks of light across the seats.Roman kept one hand on the wheel, the other curled around Blair’s fingers resting on the center console. Keira and Sutton sat in the back, the latter scrolling through her phone while Keira hummed along to whatever pop track was playing softly through the speakers.She was so glad that her sisters liked Roman. It made everything so much easier. She wasn’t looking forward to today, but with Roman and her sisters by her side, she would get through it. But when this was over, she wouldn’t be helping her aunt and uncle out anymore. They could only take gratitude so far, and she was all out. After the way they had treated Sutton when she had come home pregnant, but their total acceptance of Laura’s pregnancy and the fact that they had said Laura couldn’t help falling in love with Blair’s fiancé... The lies people told themselves to make it okay. Her cousin was a slut.Blair glan

Blair stood in front of the vanity mirror, the soft hum of activity echoing faintly from downstairs as preparations for their departure continued. She adjusted her earring, watching her reflection with a mix of dread and determination. The engagement party was being held today. Dan and Laura’s. And somehow, she had to get through it with her head held high.Behind her, Roman moved about the room, buttoning the crisp white shirt that clung to his chest and arms in all the ways that made her thoughts stray from anything remotely appropriate for public.Blair bit her lip as her eyes lingered on him. He was effortlessly gorgeous, confident, powerful, every inch of him a distraction she didn’t need right now. But God, did she want him? Since the accident, since the moment Ethan had pulled her out of the way of that falling concrete, they hadn’t touched each other sexually. The mild concussion had taken precedence, and Roman hadn’t pushed. He had been gentle. Thoughtful. Patient.But this m

Roman sat behind his desk at the office, the light coming in from the floor-to-ceiling windows behind him cast him in shadow to anyone entering the office. His phone was on silent, though his gaze kept flicking toward it every few minutes. He’d told himself that leaving Blair with his family was the smart move. Eleanor and Rose were both fiercely capable, but it didn’t make being away from her any easier. He was constantly worrying about her.He should be focused. Peters had sent over a folder of updates that morning, and Roman had already skimmed the contents twice. No obvious threats. No strange activity flagged with her family. No signs of who might be targeting Blair. And yet, the pit in his stomach hadn’t gone away. So who the hell was doing this?He scrubbed a hand over his face, frustrated. Whoever was behind this was careful. Too careful.A knock at the door pulled him from his thoughts. Kara poked her head in. “Roman? The catering team confirmed they have arrived at the estat
In Bed With Her Shithead Boss Chapter Fifty-Four
Blair barely had time to prepare herself before Roman’s mother, Eleanor, enveloped her in a warm embrace the moment she got within reaching distance. The embrace was warm and welcoming, and it surprised the hell out of Blair.“Blair, darling,” Eleanor said as she pulled back, keeping Blair’s hands in hers as she scanned her over with a keen eye. “It’s so good to finally meet you face to face, though I wish it were under better circumstances.” Curving an arm behind Blair’s back.Before Blair could respond, James Kingston stepped forward, his presence just as commanding as his son’s, though far less intimidating. “You gave us all quite the scare,” he said, his sharp gaze flickering to Roman. “I assume you’re handling this situation.”Roman gave a curt nod. “It’s being handled.”James sighed, rubbing a hand over his jaw. “I trust you are taking every precaution? This wasn’t just a random accident, not after it happening twice within twenty-four hours.”“I know that,” Roman said tightly.

Blair exhaled in relief as she stepped outside the hospital doors, the cool breeze brushing against her skin. Roman was beside her, his hand resting possessively on the small of her back, guiding her toward the waiting car. She was exhausted, her body still sore, but at least she was going home. It amazed her really that she was so tired. She had slept, but she was still tired. But during the time it had taken the nurses to come around with the paperwork for her to sign, all she had done was think. About why someone would want to kill her? And who had so much hatred toward her that they would go to such extremes?Ethan opened the back door of the sleek black SUV, nodding to Roman before stepping back into position. Roman helped her inside, making sure she was settled before joining her. As soon as the door shut, sealing them inside the quiet comfort of the car, she leaned her head back against the seat with a sigh.“God, I hate the smell of hospitals,” she murmured.Roman smirked, re

Seeing Sutton standing here waiting for him hadn’t surprised him. If it had been his sister Rose, he would be demanding answers as well. He had expected this conversation. He exhaled slowly, bracing himself.“What is it?” he asked, keeping his voice even.Sutton studied him for a moment before speaking. “I need to know something, and I need you to be honest with me, Roman. Is there any reason, any at all, that Blair would be in danger because of you?”Roman’s jaw tightened. “No. Well... I’m not one hundred percent sure, but it wouldn’t be business. Everything I do within business is legitimate. I have my men on it. They will not leave one stone unturned, and neither will I, Sutton. You have my word.”Sutton didn’t back down. “Are you sure you didn’t make an enemy in business? Someone with a grudge? Someone that lost out in a deal? Something from your past? Because I swear to God, if you have knowingly put her in danger—”Roman cut her off, his voice firm but calm. “I would never put B

Roman stood by Blair’s bedside, watching as she spoke quietly with her sisters. She was still pale, exhaustion clear in the soft lines of her face, but there was a fire in her eyes that reassured him. She was strong, but even the strongest needed protection. And he would make damn sure she had it.He needed to make some calls, so with one last glance at her, he squeezed her hand and murmured, “I’ll be back soon. I just need to make a few calls. Try to get some rest.”Blair gave him a small smile. “You don’t have to hover, you know. My sisters are here to do enough of that for you.”Keira smirked from her chair. “Oh, don’t worry. We’ll keep her entertained. You go do your brooding billionaire thing.”Roman rolled his eyes but smirked. He actually liked Blair’s sisters, even Keira, who had a sharp tongue and a wicked sense of humor. She was the kind of woman who would be a handful for any man. Sutton, on the other hand, had a quiet intensity that reminded him of himself. She took respon

Blair stirred as she slowly became aware of the steady beeping of a heart monitor and the faint murmur of voices around her. The antiseptic scent of the hospital filled her nose, and the stiffness in her body reminded her that she was definitely not in her own bed. Her head ached, a dull, persistent throb, and her ankle was elevated, wrapped tightly.Before she could fully open her eyes, she felt the warm, firm grip of a familiar hand holding hers.“Blair,” Roman’s voice was quiet but filled with intensity. “Are you awake?”She forced her eyes open, blinking against the brightness of the room. Roman was seated beside her, his expression unreadable but the tension in his posture evident. His other hand rested on her thigh over the hospital blanket, his grip grounding her. He looked… well, rumpled. Not his normal self.“Hey,” she murmured, her voice raspy. “You look like hell.”Roman let out a breath, something between a laugh and a scoff. “You’re the one in the hospital bed, sweetheart

Ethan barely had time to move Blair into a sitting position before the sound of screeching tires tore through the air. She almost flinched after what had happened yesterday. But it was Roman’s car that came to a halt so fast it nearly skidded, the driver-side door flinging open before the vehicle had fully stopped. Roman was out in an instant, his eyes locking on Blair where she sat on the pavement with Ethan crouched beside her. She could see that Peters was with him.His face was thunderous as he strode toward them, looking around at the broken concrete shattered around the ground. “What the fuck happened?”Ethan straightened. “That,” he pointed to the pieces of concrete, “fell from the building. Miss Warner was almost hit. I pushed them both out of the way. Unfortunately, they both hit the sidewalk and the side of the building pretty hard.”But at least she hadn’t got her head crashed in by a fulling building. There was no way of surviving that.Roman’s jaw clenched, his gaze flick
