Mikayla's Mistake: A One Night Stand with the Billionaire CHAPTER 53
Mikayla woke curled in Cael's arms in her bed. She could tell she'd woken before him because of the deep breaths that moved in his chest rhythmically against her ears. Her face stretched into a smile.She was careful not to move around or alter her breathing too much so she wouldn't wake him. For now, she just wanted to enjoy being in bed with him like this. Plus, she imagined he'd have a few words to say to her after her actions yesterday. And she wasn't ready to answer them just yet.When she'd asked him what she had to do to make his resolve break down in the car earlier yesterday, she honestly hadn't been planning to do anything with the information. Even when she'd invited him in, she'd simply thought they would hang out for a bit and he would go back home.But watching him walk around in her house suddenly ignited such fierce feelings in her that instantly fried her brain. The only thought she could process was how much she wanted him and had to have him.When he carried h

The moment Anna saw Mikayla, she gasped and came hurrying up to her. "No way! You actually did it," she exclaim.Mikayla's eyes widened. She grabbed Anna by the arm and hurried her away from the entourage of nurses of doctors who were accompanying her on rounds that day. "Anna! What did you do that for!" She chastened when they were far enough away that no one could hear them.Anna ignored her and grinned. "Girl, you're glowing like a Christmas tree. Cael must be really magnificent at this."She rolled her eyes. "Shut up!" Her expression changed and she squealed. But yes! He is amazing!""But I thought he wasn't going to give in. What the hell happened?"She smiled wickedly. "I broke his resolve. It's a long story. I can't tell you all of it right now. I'm still on my rounds. Let's talk at lunch, okay?""I will wait with bated breaths," Anna assured her and danced away.Mikayla sighed and returned to her crew, offering them a smile. "I'm sorry for the interruption. Let's carry on."

Mikayla put the finishing touches on her make up and inspected her face in the mirror. She smiled appreciatively at her reflection. The extra amount of time she'd spent putting it on was definitely worth it.She'd actually gone online to search for tutorials on how to make it extra special. The result was white eyeliner to match the white dress she was going to wear and little silver stars at the edge of her eyes. It was different, which was good because it was a special day. She'd been living in anticipation and suspence from the day the delivery man handed her the bouquet and the box.She'd thanked him and entered her office before opening the box. The box held a beautiful necklace with a real diamond in the pendant in the shape of an "M". It was draped over an envelope set on a transparent glass platform. A big fancy "M" was also printed on the envelope.She was just removing the necklace from the box when her door slammed open and Anna walked in. She jumped as a result of

Cael led Mikayla hand in hand to the tent. The back and sides of the canopy were covered and only the front was left open. Rows of candles and flowers marked the pathway to the opening of the tent.The insides of the canopy held a raised rectanglar platform. made of wood and fully lined with a white cushion. A few throw pillows sat at the head of the platform. Red petals were scattered over it. In the back of the canopy, a combination of balloons and flowers had been used to create a nice backdrop for the flashing neon letters that read: "Will you be mine?" "Oh, this is so beautiful. How did you get the time to put this together in two days?"He smiled, turning to face her. With the setting golden sun behind his head, he was the perfect picture of an aristocratic lord. Mikayla's heart leapt. Could she ever get over how perfect this man looked?"It wasn't too difficult," he said, his voice coated in amusement."But how did you manage to get them to agree to you using this place?

"All's well that ends well" was the phrase that rang through Mikayla's mind on the ride back home. Finally, she and Cael were a thing; an item. She felt as giddy as a high school girl with a crush.One would think, from how intense this felt, that they'd just gotten married rather than just started dating. Honestly it felt almost the same. She'd always been skeptical about marriage having seen how it played out firsthand in her own living room growing up. She wasn't convinced that it was worth it. After all she'd seen and experienced herself, it seemed to be nothing better than a sham. But still, she'd always held out hope that she would one day find a man who would love and respect her. A man who would stay true to his vows and not embarass her like all those men did.Then she'd found Bernie and knew with full confidence that he was the kind of man she could count on. But he'd left for Africa and she'd resigned to fate again that she might never meet anyone who met her criteri

"Mom!?" Mikayla exclaimed as the shadow morphed into the recognizable features of the woman who birthed her. "What the hell are you doing here!"Michelle looked the same as ever; shockingly beautiful and well put together. Even at this time of the night, her make up was flawless. Her long blonde hair bellowed behind her that of a wraith, giving her an etheneral enchanting look.She was dressed in a tight mini dress that barely covered her ass and left little else to the imagination.It was paired with a set of heels that were so high, Mikayla was sure she could never walk comfortably in them.But her mother, Michelle Wall, had worn those types of heels since she could remember and she walked in them with surprising ease and grace. In fact, she was so used to them that Mikayla remembered her walking on tiptoes around the house even when she wasn't in heels."Is that the way to speak to your mother?" Michelle asked. "And are you going to keep us standing out here? It's late."Us? The

Mikayla woke up a little thrown off. She knew even before she woke up that she wasn't in her room or on her bed but she was in familiar surroundings. She popped open her eyes and saw that she was in her seldom used guest room.The events of the night before came rushing back to her. The evening which started on such a good note had taken such a drastic turn unexpectedly. Her mum, Michelle Wall, was here in her home for the first time and it was because her most recent billionaire boyfriend had thrown her out.This was a new low, even for Michelle. She often ran into confrontation of the wives of the men she was bedding. That was nothing new. But to be thrown out of the house she was living in by one of them? It just went to show that this new generation was a new breed.In the past, the wives of the men Michelle dated wouldn't dare to interfere in their husband's illicit affairs even if they knew about it. They would pretend not to know in front of him and accost Michelle behind

Mikayla's phone continued to ring on and on and on...She stared blankly at the screen of her ringing phone until it stopped. She wasn't in the mood to talk to anyone, least of all Cael. She knew it wasn't right and it wasn't fair. He hadn't done anything wrong.In fact, Cael had been near perfect so far. And that made her even sadder because in truth she had nothing to offer him. The only thing being part of his life would bring him was whispers and slander.And none of the people who engaged in that slander would be wrong. Michelle was her mum, and she was everything people said and worse. She was the child of a whore who would spread her legs to any man with money as long as he could fund her lifestyle. Michelle even carried the title of gold digger with pride.Mikayla always said that the one big regret of her life was being born to her mother. If she could somehow go back in time, she would find a way to prevent her entire existence from happening. Anything to save her f

Mikayla watched as the maid diligently turned the pot of soup. "I think you should add some more water," she directed."Yes, ma'am," the girl said and went to grab a cup of water from the tap."Mummy! Mummy!" Mikayla looked down at the kid pulling frantically on her cloth. "What is it, Abe?" She asked."Can I turn the soup too?" He asked, giving her a big smile. His adorable face made her smile. She shook her head. He knew exactly what he was doing! The boy was too aware of his own good looks. He thought it could help him get away with anything and get anything he wanted."No, Abe. You can't and you know it," she said."But mummm! I'm a big boy now. I'm seven years old," he argued.He'd only turned seven three days ago and already they'd heard that fact at least a million times. It came up in every argument including when it was his bedtime, when he needed to eat his vegetables and just any other time he could squeeze the argument into."Seven is too young to play around the sto

Mikayla looked at herself in the full length mirror and smiled. 'You look very beautiful,' she thought to herself. 'And I'm so proud of you.'She'd come a very long way from the scared little girl who lived everyday in fear of people finding out her true identity.Now, she was a strong, beautiful woman with a thriving career and an amazing boyfriend.And today, she would be celebrating another incredible milestone in her career at a beautiful ball.What more could a person ask for? Mikayla's heart was filled with gratitude."What's up? Are you ready," Anna asked from behind her, coming to stand with her.Mikayla looked at her friend in the mirror. "Yes, I'm ready. You look incredible." Anna wore a long velvet dress with dramatically big sleeves. "Thank you! You look wonderful too," she answered.Mikayla nodded, turning back and forth as she looked at herself in the mirror. "Yes, I do," she said."Oh," Anna's eyes widened. "That is the first time I've ever heard you acknowledge that

"Hello?" Mikayla said tiredly into the phone. "What's up?" "Hi, love," Cael's voice said over the speaker."Oh, hi, Cael! Sorry, I didn't look at the screen when I picked the call!" She was barely keeping her eyes open so she'd simply swiped without looking.Cael chuckled. "That tired, Hun? Well, you're about to come wide awake. I have good news."Mikayla perked up immediately. "Really?" She said, sitting up. "What is it?""Remember that call I got at your house?" He asked."Yes," Mikayla answered. How could she forget? She'd found herself thinking about it from time to time. He'd managed to distract her that night but she'd been wondering about it since then. Especially because Cael seemed to be in a perpetual good mood since the call. He walked around the house whistling. She'd even caught him smiling to himself a few times. The horror!"Well, you remember that meeting we had withr Marcus a while back about expanding the hospital?""How could I forget?" she said."Well, I got
Mikayla's Mistake: A One Night Stand with the Billionaire CHAPTER 78
Mikayla stood in front of the door to her beloved home. It'd been two weeks since she last stepped here. During those two weeks, she was staying with Cael at his mansion. She'd finally summoned the courage to come back and pack up Abe's stuff.She took a deep breath and turned the key. Suddenly there was a revving sound behind her. Mikayla turned around to see Cael's cars pulling into her driveway. "What are you doing here?" She asked in surprise."I couldn't let you face this alone. I'm here to help," he answered, walking up to her.She smiled. "But you didn't tell me you were coming! We spoke about me coming here this morning."He smiled back. "I wanted to surprise you," he said. "Are you ready to go in?"Mikayla nodded. "I was just psyching myself up to go in when I heard your car pull in. I guess I just have to rip the band-aid off and get it over with."He nodded. "I'll help you." He opened the door and entered first. Mikayla followed behind him.She looked around her house.

"Good morning, boss," Nurse Rachel called cheerfully to Mikayla as she came into work that morning."Morning," Mikayla answered quietly and headed into her office.Rachel caught Kim's eyes and raised a brow in a silent question. "What now?"Nurse Kim shook her head and nodded towards the office. "Go do your job," she said.Rachel sighed and went after Mikayla. She met her putting on her coat. "Dr Wall, is everything okay?"Mikayla gave her a tight smile. "Everything is fine, thank you."Rachel raised a brow. Obliviously everything was not fine. But she didn't press the issue. She decided to ask a different question."And how is Abe doing this morning? We've missed him a lot! The night shift nurses were shocked to hear that he'd been discharged. They made me swear to ask you to bring him in one of these days do they can say hello."A lump developed in Mikayla's throat. She swallowed thickly. Her eyes watered. She turned away from Rachel so she wouldn't see. "Abe is no longer with me

After Cael handed Abe over to Michelle, Mikayla fell into a pool of grief. She sat listlessly on the floor for what could have been minutes, hours or seconds. She was completely unaware of Armani's gentle presence, rocking her gently. At some point, Armani left to go home and still she didn't notice.When Cael decided that she'd been on the floor long enough, he picked her up to take her to the bedroom. At that moment, something inside of her snapped. With a snarl, Mikayla launched herself at Cael and began pounding at him.He fell on his butt in surprise. She pounded him with every ounce of strength in her body. She hit every inch of skin she could reach, growling like a wounded animal with each punch. There was so much pent up fury in her head with no exit route. So she pounded it out.Cael took the beating like a champ. He sat rock still and waited for her to finish, pinning her with those black, glittering hawk-like eyes. "How could you! How could you!" Mikayla snarled in

Michelle stood in Cael's doorway, clad in an expensive designer coat that barely reached halfway to her thighs.She also spotted glittering silver shoes that probably cost more than Mikayla's phone!"What the hell are you doing here?" Mikayla exclaimed.Cael heard the sound of her voice and came running to the door, Abe in his arms. "Mum!" Abe squealed as soon as he saw her and reached for her."My sweet boy!" She cooed, taking him from Cael. "Did you miss me? I missed you a lot.""I asked you a question," Mikayla repeated through clenched teeth. "What the hell are you doing here?""Is that any way to talk to your mother?" Michelle chastened and walked into the house, almost shouldering past them. She headed straight to the living room as if the place belonged to her."Do you know how difficult it was to find you?" She demanded, oblivious to the shock and discomfort of the rest of them. She sat comfortably. "I went by your house and there was no one there. It didn't seem like anyo

Armani pressed the doorbell again. The sound caused Mikayla to jump. She self-consciously ran her hand over her hair and body, making sure everything was in place. Armani often had that effect on her. She was always so beautiful, well put together and chic. She made Mikayla feel like a slob.She opened the door and smiled nervously at Armani. "Hi.""Hello," Armani said. "Can I come in?"It strick Mikayla as odd that she was asking her if she could come in. From what she knew, Armnai frequented Cael's house as often as she wanted. They were that close. So why did she feel the need to ask her?"Yes, of course," she answered and stepped back for her.Armani walked in and stood waiting. Mikayla blinked. "Erm...this way." She shut the door and led Armani to the living room. "Cael is asleep right now but I can wake him up if you want..." Armani smiled and shook her head. She sat down. "Don't bother. I didn't come to see him anyway. I came to see you."Mikayla sat down slowly. "To see

Mikayla was embarrassed!She was in the middle of a small crowd that had gathered in front of the hospital to see Abe off. In three days, he'd managed to become the hospital sweetheart. Every time she went to see him in his room, she met at least three hospital staff at a time fawning over him.Meanwhile, Abe basked in the attention he was getting in the hospital. The little celebrity had been showered with so many gifts that there was hardly space left in his room. So much so that he kicked off a fuss when she told him he would be going home today. At least his new friends had come out to bid him goodbye!Right now, he was in the arms of one of the nurses while the other crowded around him. They were waiting for Cael to pull the car around. Sweet Cael! He's been on ground these past three days, taking care of Mikayla and Abe simultaneously.It was Cael who'd brought her change of clothes each day. It was Cael who'd ordered food for her and made sure everything was fine while
