Book #4 Wright-Petrov Series At the age of twenty-two, Skye Monticello lives her life in reckless exploration, even at the cost of her innocence during a one-night stand. However, upon discovering the identity of her mysterious fling and refusing to relinquish her freedom, she decides to flee and make a fresh start. Fate, however, has other plans, as she finds herself pregnant. Despite her predicament, she courageously chooses to raise her child alone and has been successful, almost. After years in hiding, she comes face to face with the man who fathered her child and claimed her first. As she navigates this challenging encounter and grapples with the uncanny resemblance her child bears to his father, she stubbornly struggles to evade the man who seems to be an indomitable presence in her life. Moreover, with him being the most influential man in the country, escape seems even more implausible. Xander Voulker Wright, the third heir of the Wright and Petrov family, adds another layer of complexity to Skye's peace of mind.

Chapter 1 Husband

Clad in white tailored shorts paired with the same color-haltered strappy backless top and a stiletto, Skye Monticello makes her way to the bar counter. "One glass of martini please" Her soft smile was rewarded by a polite yet admiring one from the bartender. "You're new here" He starts a conversation while preparing her drinks. "Yes, and I'm excited about the new experience" Her charming smile bring out the little dimples beside her lips. But her best asset is her monolid eyes that disappear whenever she smiles or laughs. Usual for having an Asian mother. "Enjoy" With a lingering smile, the bartender carefully serve her drink. "Thank you" Her face brightens seeing the luscious liquid inside a delicate glass. Taking a sip, her smile widens while she locks gazes with the bartender. Who in return smiles at her upon seeing her satisfied smile. "Enjoy" He mumbles before turning to another customer who took his spot two seats apart from her. With a charming smile, she carefully rais

Chapter 2 The Right One

"A great sex" His words made her tense for a while but a slow smile carves her lips."Of course" With a challenging smile, she agrees, earning her a satisfied smirk. And the challenge was gladly accepted. The moment they were inside her hotel room, she was immediately ravished by his demanding kisses. "Haaah..." She had the chance to fill her lungs with air after he releases her from scorching his mouth. She almost cannot keep up with his ravishing passion. Not expecting such fervor. But she is loving his rough ministration. Tilting her head upward, his lips and tongue trailed her jaw upward until he reached her ear. With his hot breath and wet tongue gracing her fevered skin, goosebumps cover her entire body. He was aware of her delicious response and it's fueling his desire. His hands are exploring her body, seeming to be memorizing every curve and crevice. Until she felt the coldness around her hips. It only means one thing, her garments are gradually discarded. "You're..

Chapter 3 Hickeys

Despite giving her a fright of possible forced marriage because of the hickies she gave him, they still manage to finish their second round. Exhausted and satiated, they fell asleep and it was before dawn that she starts to stir. Disoriented and pained, she tries to focus. Then, the memories of last night came rushing. And despite the discomfort she feels, a sleepy smile graces her lips. It was the best night of her life. A night she will never forget. Taking a deep breath, her nostrils were filled with the masculine scent of the naked figure next to her. It's another new for her, experiencing waking up with a man. And she's liking it. She admit it or not, it brought warmth to her heart. As much as she wanted to continue to be enveloped in his strong arms, she forces herself to wake up. She needs to leave.Ever so slowly, she carefully removes the arms wrapped around her. And when she thought she was successful, she cautiously eases away from him to get off the bed. "Where are you

Chapter 4 The Man She Cannot Forget

Glancing for the second time, she got her confirmation. Her body went numb as she gapes at the man in disbelief until he disappeared inside the elevator. The one that ordinary employees were not allowed. Even after the door closes, her eyes are still glued in his direction. What should she do? But before she could find an answer, she was pushed towards the open elevator. So as not to fall, she goes with the flow. The entire ride has been a conflicting battle for her haywire thoughts. She wanted to flee but her feet are too weak to even take a step. Until she reaches her floor. With slow unsure steps, she went out. But unlike the others who kept their hastened pace, she went to the corner to lean on the wall. She needs to compose herself before facing anyone. "This is a huge building, there's no way we will easily bump into each other. Or I could try to avoid him" she whispers, trying to convince herself to stay calm. "I can't mess this up. I want this job" She frustratedly cont

Chapter 5 The Wright Heir

It's been a couple of months and she had settled down in a decent size apartment. Just a few blocks away from her work. Finding a job is not a difficult task for her. With her exemplary credentials, any company would certainly hire her. She has a usual morning, she wakes up early, did her little workout, took a shower, and prepared her breakfast. But aside from what she normally does, she did one exception earlier. And although she has been convincing herself it's unnecessary, her gut feeling won. "Shit" Closing her eyes, she gently rubs her face while heaving a deep sigh. Still hoping it's just a dream. "This should be a dream" She frustratedly whispers while massaging her nape. And before opening her eyes, she takes a very deep breath to calm her nerves. But no matter how many times she closes and opens her eyes, she was still met with the same outcome. "Two lines" She weakly whispers. Hopeless that it will still change after the nth time she checks it. "Why now?" Sobs rock

Chapter 6 Secret Weapon

"Mama, why should you wear makeup? You're beautiful without it" a whiny voice made her smile. She pauses from applying face powder to turn to her side. A little figure is standing beside her chair, watching her fix herself on her lighted vanity. Her four-year-old son."Mama might be meeting with a client later. So Mama should always look pretty" she tenderly explains while gently pinching his perfectly shaped nose. As expected, he grows to be a spitting image of the man who is across the globe from them. And for five years, she succeeded in hiding."I don't like other boys looking at you. And they will surely stare because you made yourself more beautiful" With a pout, he inspects her face. Chuckling, she watches him sulk. It's been an issue between them. He always objects every time she puts on make-up or dresses sexily. "Papa will be angry if other boys would look at you" he added and his last word made her sigh. No matter how she tries to explain that there's no chance they w

Chapter 7 His Guest

"CEO Xander Voulker Wright"The name resounded like an omen in Skye's ears as she stiffen on her spot. Like what she did five years ago, she wanted to turn around and flee. But it's too late. Xander Wright is already walking closer and for a fleeting moment, their gazes met. Her thundering heart muffled all noise around the room. All she could hear is the incoming footsteps together with a hard pounding inside her chest. His presence is suffocating. She can't breathe. If someone noticed her pale hands tightly clutching her purse, she no longer care. He is scanning the crowd and she almost fainted when their eyes met. But it was so fleeting. His eyes continue to wander while she was left quite baffled. She continues to watch him but all she could see is an inscrutable facet. Divulging nothing of what's in his mind. He passed by her side like she is just another spectator among the crowd. Then, the realization struck her. He didn't recognize her.Relief washed over her but a nag

Chapter 8 Tempted

Gauging that she has been the center of everyone's interest, Skye did not dare look at anyone. Even to Xander Wright. But a powerful magnet seems to be pulling her to look his way.And their eyes meet. His gaze is too calm, it's making her more anxious. Something in that deep-set eyes is making her uneasy. It's like an inevitable fiasco is about to happen. While drowned in his hazel orbs, she has been praying someone would intercede in his plan. Hoping he has more important people to be with rather than be with her. "Skye would be glad to orient you about H&M, CEO Wright. It would be our honor"To her aghast, Harry indulges the man. If she has been holding her breath, she was not mindful of it but she was aware she gasps. She has no way out. Dina, with a gauging eye, stares at her. She took notice of her peculiar behavior but choose not to point it out. She just assumed Skye is intimidated and maybe overwhelmed by the responsibility on her shoulder right now. Being with the most in

Chapter 9 Not A Sl*t

"Pardon us, Miss Monticello but you're going directly to CEO Wright's suite" The man is polite but his words immensely made her uneasy. It never occurred to her that Xander will do such a thing to ensure her complaisance. Had he read her mind?Just earlier, she was ready to change her mind. But with the two men Xander sent, she doesn't think she can even take a step away from the elevator. Keeping her silence, she watches the floor indicator as it ascends its way up. Up to the penthouse. Until they reached the topmost floor, she hasn't thought of anything to solve her predicament. The door opens and the two men step aside while holding the door for her. "This way, Miss Monticello" One of them gestures for her to step outside but she remains unmoving. Her eyes are on the empty hallway ahead. How long has she been standing in the middle of the elevator, she hasn't kept track of time. But the two men remain on their spot, patiently waiting for her to come out. And looking at their

Chapter 10 Her Masterpiece

"Who?" With narrowed eyes, he fixed his serious gaze on her. His intimidation is making her nervous. "I hate to be compared, particularly with any man" he continued after getting no response from her. His hand which has been caressing her earlier is now gripping her jaw. And though it's not painful, it's somehow disconcerting."I don't care about your previous partners. But I forbid you to even mention another man while in my bed" he snickers while making a point by tightening his hold on her chin. "You understand, Miss Monticello?" Gritting his teeth, he slightly shakes her.If not for the relief that washed over her upon knowing he inferred differently, she would be disgruntled by his anger. But she was so relieved by the misunderstanding that she doesn't mind the dangerous sharpness in the way he glares at her. "Yes, I understand, CEO Wright" She tries to placate him. It's the least she could do. "Don't be riled, the night is too gorgeous to ruin" Caressing the hand holding he
