MISS ICE MEETS MR ARROGANT Chapter 10
Chapter 10RiverAs I walked to the my office, now in the elevator I couldn't help but wonder at if maybe rumors had started flying about myself and Dante. sincerely I didn't give two hoots if rumours had started circulating I was here to win back my honor and pride and get the hell out of this office.The elevator dinged and I got out, I mean why should I give a shit about people who wanted to be in my position after all. Most of the women here were probably only working here in hopes Dante would in as much as bat an eyelash their way.I know I sound cocky, but why shouldn't I. No one here knows how hard I worked to put my ass together and be noticed by the high and mighty. If they knew my story they'll be applauding me not hating.I pushed open my office door to see Baron seated on the visitors chair with a scowl on his face, I know he had probably been waiting a long time for me. He raised his head when he saw me, “Welcome miss, can we leave now we're quiet behind schedule.”I look
MISS ICE MEETS MR ARROGANT Chapter 11
Chapter 11I swallowed the knot forming in my throat and walked to Dante who was casually leaning on his latest model of Gwagon Mercedes Benz. The man certainly had a thing of dark vehicles.He watched me like a predator watching his prey, not blinking, his sight not wavering. He wore a navy blue stripped suit and a crisp white shirt which the top bottons had been undone.I didn't need to come to close to know the shoes he wore were from Armani, now barely three feet away from him. I caught a whiff of his delicious manly woodly scent, I had to stop myself from inhaling deeply.He surprised me by abruptly straightening and catching me by my waist with an arms, the intensity of his stare almost made me look away but I didn't want to appear weak so maintained our locked gaze.“You look ravishing.” He said it without missing a beat and it filled me with a sense of power knowing he thought that. I don't know maybe it was the champagne from the shopping earlier or just this intoxicating man
MISS ICE MEETS MR ARROGANT Chapter 1
Chapter OneRiver's POVI took a deep breath, taking in the New York air. I absolutely loved the smell of the city. It smelled like big dreams and lots of opportunities, money, and, last but not least, hot men.Tomorrow I have my life-changing case; this is going to be my big break. I have the privilege of being the counsel to a hotshot client in a million-dollar suit.Once I win as per usual tomorrow, my name will become a corporate staple. Every company would want me as their lawyer and I can't finally get the life I've worked so damn hard for.But first, I need to fuck someone tonight. I let out a breath enjoying the view of the magnificent hotel pool, my eyes scanning for my next prey. Yeah, I won't lie I've seen potential. Hot men with chiseled abs and all but I've had even better. Since this is the most important case of my life, I need to have the most passionate one-night stand of my life with the best-looking man I've ever been with.“River, you need to change your ways and

River's POVI woke with a banging headache, feeling rather sore. But not the bad kind of sore, the delicious kind of sore; glancing at the digital alarm, I saw the time was already 7am (the next morning).'Shit.’ I muttered softly, I turned around and noticed the space beside me was empty. What the heck? My eyes fell on my ripped clothes on the floor and I almost started panicking.How the hell was I to get out of here, where exactly was I even? I jumped off the bed in search of my cell phone and I saw a beautiful black dress and a folded note.I picked it up and read: 'Sorry for the ripped dress, and thanks for the beautiful night🖤’. I don't know why I smiled reading the letter. My phone rang loudly and I jumped slightly, swearing.I checked my phone to see that it was Samantha calling, I picked up the call.“Hi babes.” “The hell River, get your ass out of the hotel room. I'm outside the hotel with a cab.”I chuckled despite the situation, “I'll be right down hot pants.”I picked up
MISS ICE MEETS MR ARROGANT Chapter 3
River's POVI freaking lost the case. I don't even know how I really feel, I feel utterly heartbroken. This was supposed to be the life-changing opportunity of my lifetime.Currently, I was sitting on the steps of the courthouse feeling utterly devastated. After the break, I was so disoriented that the defendant's lawyer completely ate me up, and I lost the case.The last time I felt this way was when Jake left me when I was seventeen back in Texas. I took a deep breath trying to hold back my tears, I can't let this break me. I'm freaking River Harper and who the hell cares if I soiled my perfect record and lost one case.Even if it was the biggest case of my life, I felt my chest heaving with a sob, tears blinding my vision. Damn that stupid Dante.Someone thrusted a crisp white handkerchief in blurry my vision and I took it without a thought. “I hate seeing pretty girls cry.” I heard that voice again, whose owner was the source of my problem.“Give it a rest, Dante.” Now I was mad,
MISS ICE MEETS MR ARROGANT Chapter 4
Dante's POVThe music blared loudly in my ears; the club was wide awake tonight. I took another shot the burning sensation of alcohol went straight to my head.“Woah, what's happening tonight? You seem very on edge.” Kyle, my best friend said. Honestly, he was right, since I met that temptress River of a woman. I haven't been stable since.“Mind your business, Kyle.”Someone grabbed my arm, I felt her sharp nails jarring into my flesh and I nearly winced in surprise. “Hi baby, I didn't know you'd be in the club tonight.”I disentangled my hand from her grip and turned to her; it was Amanda, one of the trips I usually mess with. “Hi, I didn't know I'd be coming to the club tonight either.”She batted her fake heavy lashes at me, and from the corner of my eye, I could see Kyle roll his eyes. But what the hell I need the distraction right now.I circled her waist with my left arm, pulling her close, but almost immediately, the picture of River flashed before my eyes. But I shook it off.
MISS ICE MEETS MR ARROGANT Chapter 5
River's POVIt's been a whole month since the humiliation Dante caused me. Honestly, after he humiliated me at the club in front of that plastic woman, I can't lie; my ego has not recovered, and I'm out to get him.He made me feel like I was disposable and nobody made a fool out of me, especially a man. Luckily, I got another hotshot client, and so far, so good I was nailing the case.But I still had a problem no matter the money, no matter the excitement I've tried to create for myself, including jumping off a plane. I couldn't get him off my mind, I needed him to fall for me.I want him crawling back to me begging then I'll throw it back in his face and reject him. That man thinks he can just make a fool out of me, over my dead body.My problem was genuinely getting access to the man, I mean, I had sighted him a few times, but I couldn't get close to him without embarrassing myself or seeming desperate.I sighed audibly, this was going to be my last desperate attempt. I saw an ad in
MISS ICE MEETS MR ARROGANT Chapter 6
River's POV (6)The next thing I knew, my back was against the wall; I tried desperately to slow down my breathing. I know I must sound like the engine of a locomotive train. He put his right hand above me on the wall and leaned into me so closely I could smell his aftershave.I’m not some silly schoolgirl, but honestly, I couldn't stand to look him in the eye, so I brought my eyes lower. I heard him chuckle slightly. “Could the wonder girl Miss Grey possibly be? shy.”I don’t know why this man’s words had the power to infuriate me so quickly; I immediately brought my eyes up to him, giving him a blank, expressionless look.“Let me know when the man I should probably be shy of walks into this room. It can’t be the man standing before me.”He only gave a side smirk in response, obviously unfazed at my words. He tilted my chin towards him, and I could almost feel myself pool my panties due to that singular action.“I know you want me, you don’t have to be shy about it. I’m sure you kno

Chapter 9River's POVAs I strolled back from the cafe, for like half a second I felt for a few seconds eyes watching me. I turned and looked around but the feeling disappeared as quickly as it came. I didn't have to wonder who it was; it could probably be Dante or someone he sent.I walked briskly with my pastries and coffee; entering the building, I could still see the secretary give me some type of stupid weird eye. And honestly, I'd about had it. I walked straight up to her desk and put on my icy sweet smile."Excuse me, I think we started on the wrong foot today. I'm River." I even extended my hand out to the b**tch. She eyes my hand like I'm some vermin and gives a tight smile, her red lipstick creasing."Oh, I know you, Rive,r, and the fact you don't remember me makes it all the way worse. It's almost like you're mocking me."I arched an eyebrow in confusion and took a deeper look at her. Her face looked familiar to someone I used to know back, like way back."Could you possibl

Chapter 8 Rivers POVI walked out of his office and he didn't even bother trying to stop me. The man is insufferable and if not for the stupid attraction and need to pamper my ego. I would have tendered in my resignation because who the hell does he think he is?I took the elevator, hoping I could still locate my office, which I did. Luckily, getting inside, I let curiosity get the best of me, and I took out my phone and logged into my social media app.Weirdly since the last video went up of Dante and me in the court, I've acquired double-time my followers, and my engagements have been crazy. I might as well turn into an influencer or something.I typed up the name Angelica and then tapped the first name with a blue tick; I didn't even have to wonder if I was on the right page or not. It was her, to be honest, the woman is absolutely and completely stunning.She has jet-dark hair, sea-green eyes, beautiful model features, and a great toned body. I could see how she could leave a man
MISS ICE MEETS MR ARROGANT Chapter 7
Chapter 7Dante’s POVI knew as soon as my mother left, River wouldn’t pass the opportunity to question me who Angelica was, especially since my mother made it seem like she almost ruined my life.Technically, it’s not a lie, but honestly, I’m in a much better place than ever. The last thing I needed to do was reminisce on my high school sweetheart, whom I dated all through and even after college.“An old acquaintance of mine.”She rolled her eyes at me, “some acquaintance indeed.” She muttered under her breath. I took a deep breath trying to gather my cool. “Drop it, okay? I don’t want to talk about it, especially not right now., I have work to do at the moment and would like to be excused .”I pushed my chair forward and opened my laptop. River had an upset look now, “Well if you’ll excuse me, sir, I’ll just be going back to my office, which I’d still be at if you hadn’t called me from.”I know I should say something to stop her or something. But I know all too well how women can a
