Noami closed the door behind her, without another word, she walked into her bedroom, shutting the door.

Tiffany sighed. Her phone buzzed, and she took it out, staring at Kai's message.

Kai: Goodnight. Love. See you tomorrow.

She rolled her eyes, a soft smile curved into her face, and slowly she headed towards her bedroom when Noami’s door suddenly opened.

"You two are dating or getting married?" She asked, staring at Tiffany in disbelief.

"What—" Tiffany's eyes darted around, avoiding hers. "Oh, Kai... we aren't."

"You kissed him, but you aren't dating?" Noami asked. Tiffany smiled, walking away.

She shut her bedroom door behind her, leaning against it for a moment. The apartment was quiet again, but the conversation with Naomi lingered in her mind.

Kai… She pulled out her phone, rereading his message. Her heart did an annoying little flip, but she ignored it, locking her phone and tossing it onto the nightstand.

She changed into her pyjamas and slipped into bed, but instead of

    Kai said nothing, his gaze following her until she disappeared into the passenger seat. "Wedding? I had no idea I was getting married." Henry teased.Kai exhaled sharply, his icy-blue eyes narrowing. "Why the fuck are you here?" his voice was devoid of any semblance of warmth, but his gaze fixed on Daniel’s car driving away.Kai's office door shuts, and he walks to his chair, sitting exhaustedly. "What did you say?" He asked. "Your father Kai, he wants you to return to London... I know you aren't on the same page with your stepmother, but I think you should be there. I also heard that your uncle is writing his will..." "I don't care. I can't leave, I'm close to understanding Tiffany, I can't leave." "Are you sure you're okay? If you were going to go through all these stress why then divorce her? Kate is going to have it all, isn't that why you hired her in the first place?" Kai shot him a glare, his voice low and controlled. "I know, Henry. I know all of it." He exhaled deeply, g

    Tiffany crossed her arms, flashing him her most dazzling smile. "Why can’t it be both?" she replied, her voice sweet, flashing pleasant smile as if she was using her beauty to lure him, perhaps charm him indeed. Tiffany crossed her arms, her lips curving into a bright smile that sparkled with just the right amount of charm. "Why not both?" she said softly, her voice sweet but with a playful edge, as if daring him to argue.Kai chuckled, shaking his head. "It's almost midnight, Tiff. Come on, let me take you home. We can figure it all out in the morning.""No!" Tiffany blurted, her words tumbling out in a rush. "I can’t go home yet! I need to sort this out before eight, and my delivery company isn’t answering me. They took my deposit, Kai! But you can help me, right? Please?"Kai held up a hand, his calm voice steadying her. "Breathe, Tiffany. Slow down. You need a delivery company? I’ve got it covered. My guys will be here first thing tomorrow morning. But for now, let’s go home so w

    AN HOUR BEFORE TIFFANY’S KNOCKKai barely got two hours of sleep before his alarm blared, dragging him back to reality. He groaned, rubbing his tired eyes, but there was no time to waste. Today was important. Tiffany was coming.The thought alone sent an electric pulse through his veins, jolting him awake.After a quick cold shower. Kai stood in front of his walk-in closet, scanning for the perfect outfit. He didn’t want to look like he was trying too hard, but he also wanted to make an impression. Something simple, sharp, and devastatingly effective.His hand moved instinctively, pulling out a fitted black polo shirt. He slipped it on, the fabric hugging his toned frame perfectly, accentuating his broad shoulders and muscular arms. His reflection smirked back at him in approval.Next, he chose a pair of tailored white shorts, balancing sharp sophistication with casual confidence. They fit just right but not too tight, but enough to hint at his strong legs.Kai walked to his dresser,

    Halfway through their discussion, a voice rang out from the living room. "Kai darling, your wife is here!" Amelia’s tone was sugary, sweet, and laced with venom.Tiffany froze in place, her breath catching in her throat. Her feet instinctively turned to leave, the weight of that single sentence crashing over her like a wave. But before she could slip away, the door to Kai’s office swung open, and he rushed out, grabbing her hand firmly.The warmth of his touch sent shivers up her arm, but she quickly masked her reaction, her face neutral. The door clicked shut behind him, sealing them off from Amelia’s voice."Tiffany," Kai started, his lips curling into a soft, disarming smile, though tension flickered in his icy-blue eyes. He was scrambling for an explanation, but the truth loomed heavy in his mind. *Tell her the truth. It’s the only way to fix this.* He swallowed hard, steeling himself."I didn’t know you had company," Tiffany said, her voice steady but distant. "I can come back la

  • ONLY YOU, NO CONTRACTS.   COFFEE OR TEA.

    Tiffany arrived at the police station, stormed out of Kai’s car, and rushed in. As she got in, she found Ginna, her supposed partner who was supposed to help deliver her goods. Ginna was a friend back in the days when she was a stripper. How could she have done this to her? Scammed her? Tiffany approached carefully. As she took each step, Ginna's face was slowly being revealed. Finally, she stood beside her. "Ginna?" She called with disbelief. Ginna looked up at her. Shock rushed through her veins, seeing Tiffany with tear-filled eyes looking down at her. Ginna froze, almost as if she had seen a ghost. "Tiffany, what are you doing here?" The officer looked up at Tiffany. "Miss Halton?" But Tiffany’s gaze was burning, staring at Ginna. "This isn't what you think—" "I called her. She's a victim, too." "Give me my money!" An elderly woman cried. Tiffany scoffed, looking around. She wasn't the only victim, but what surprised her was the old woman she had also scammed. Ginna bare

    Before she could get a grasp of what was wrong. Kai moved, her steps closing the distance between them in an instant. One hand slid to the back of her head, his fingers threading through her hair with a grip that pulled her heartstrings. The other found her waist, pulling her to him with a force that made her tremble like a leaf.Her lips crashed into his, the kiss anything but gentle. It was consuming, desperate, possessive. Her chest tightened as she struggled to keep up, to even think. He kissed him like she was trying to prove something like she was claiming something all her own. His grip on her didn’t waver, and for a moment, it felt like the whole room had disappeared. But as Tiffany’s breath came faster, her chest heaved against his. Gosh, he wasn't giving her time to think or catch her breath. Tiffany stared at Kai in disbelief, but resistance faded with each second. Her arms slipped around his neck, her body pressing closer, giving in inch by inch.Kai’s grip tightened as

    "I'm sorry if I can't stay away from you," Kai's voice echoed with longing. "You weren't picking up my calls, love." "Yeah? I was busy at the mall with Noami," Tiffany replied, her tone casual, but her heart raced at the sound of his voice. Ever since she made that silly confession. Kai wasn't holding back. There were flowers and a series of text messages, and even his visit had become almost unbearable, especially to Noami. "Do you need me to pick you up?" He offered, his voice filled with concern. But was it really a concern? "Aren't you busy?" she asked, hesitating. "It's fine, really. We already got a taxi," she added quickly, glancing around the taxi, making sure she didn't miss her stop. "Just call me when you’re home, baby," Kai said, his tone more insistent this time. Tiffany hummed, agreeing before she hung up. She took a deep breath, turning to glance at Noami, who sat beside her. But Noami remained silent, a playful smirk dancing on her lips as her eyes sparkled with

    Tiffany sighed, slouching into the couch" Kai? He'd been busy with work. It's been difficult. I don't want to bother him." "So you're going to go alone?" "What's there? I haven't I been going alone to clubs?" "That was when you didn't have an obsessive lover," Noami slouched onto the couch, facing her with a smile. "I love seeing you happy." Tiffany's gaze held hers. A shy smile brushed her lips, and she lowered her head. "We are not getting emotional!" She snapped, rolling her eyes as she looked away. "Anyway!" Noami’s voice echoed. "I saw a gown at the mall the other day. I need it. Like, it's a need! Besides, you should also get something too..."Kai's phone rattled on the table, drawing the attention of everyone in the meeting to him. He quietly picked it up, signalling them to continue before staring to see who had left the message. As he stared at his phone, a wide smile itched his face. It was Tiffany’s message. Of course, it was a message he had been waiting for all day.

  • ONLY YOU, NO CONTRACTS.   RAIN AND CAR RIDES

    As Kai drove out of the parking lot, the heavy rain drummed against the car’s windows, the rhythmic sound was soft. Tiffany's breath mingled with the low hum of the car, the quiet space filled with the sound of the rain tapping against the glass. Despite the storm, there was a sense of desire. Kai parked the car in a secluded spot. He quickly got rid of his tie, his eyes locked on Tiffany as she reached for him, pulling him close. Her lips crashed against his deep, urgent, and hungry. The kiss was fiery, like they were starved for each other. Tiffany’s hands slid over his chest, moving lower and Kai groaned softly, his hands catching hers.A low, breathy laugh escaped his throat. "Relax, love. I'm all yours." His voice was a husky whisper, and their gazes met for a heartbeat raw and intense. "Take off your panties right now and give them to me."Tiffany didn't hesitate. She slipped them off and handed them to him, her fingers brushing his as she

  • ONLY YOU, NO CONTRACTS.   HEATED THEATRE

    Tiffany stood in front of the mirror, smoothing out the fabric of her flowing red dress. The soft material clung to her in all the right places, the strapless cut baring her shoulders and the delicate curve of her collarbone. Tiffany ran her fingers over the material, smoothing out nonexistent wrinkles as she took a deep breath. As she fixed her earrings, Kai walked in looking dashing as ever. He was leaning against the doorway, arms crossed, eyes dark as they roamed over her. His lips twitched at the corners, softness flickering behind his gaze. "You look breathtaking," he murmured, pushing off the frame and stalking toward her.Tiffany felt a warmth spread across her chest, her pulse quickening, but she masked it with a soft laugh. "You too, darling." She whispered as he reached her, his hands skimming her waist before settling on her hips. His touch was firm and entirely distracting.Kai tilted his head, his lips grazing her jaw before pressing soft kisses down her neck. A shive

  • ONLY YOU, NO CONTRACTS.   SPA WITH A MIX—

    The morning light spilled through the curtains. The cool breeze whispered through the open balcony doors. Tiffany stirred, her body aching slightly and her muscles tender from last night. She let out a soft hum, stretching lazily beneath the silky sheets.Kai ’s arm was draped over her waist, his grip loose, his face nuzzled against her neck. Tiffany turned slightly, watching the slow rise and fall of his chest, the way his lashes laid against his eyes, and his hair covering his forehead, giving him a boyish look. His lips slightly parted in sleep. A smirk tugged at her lips as she recalled how desperate he had been and his pleas last night. Carefully, she slipped out from under his arm, suppressing a wince the moment she sat on the bed. As she got up, her legs wobbled beneath her. She padded towards the en-suite bathroom, her body glowing with a satisfied exhaustion. She took a glance in the mirror, staring at her flushed cheeks, tousled hair and her lips still swollen from Kai’s

  • ONLY YOU, NO CONTRACTS.   MIDNIGHT FANTASIES

    The Hawaiian breeze drifted through the open balcony doors, carrying the scent of salt and hibiscus into the dimly lit bedroom. The soft rustling of palm trees outside was nothing compared to the sound of Kai’s ragged breaths as he lay sprawled on the bed, his wrists bound to the headboard with silk scarves. Tiffany straddled him, a wicked smirk curving her lips as she dragged her nails down his chest, revelling in the way his muscles tensed beneath her touch."You look so good like this," she murmured, her fingers tracing the taut lines of his abdomen, deliberately avoiding the one place he wanted her most. Tiffany leaned down, teasing him with her breath before finally capturing his lips in a deep and searing kiss. Kai groaned into her mouth, trying to chase her when she pulled back, but the silk restraints kept him in place.Tiffany trailed her hands down his chest, her fingertips barely grazing his skin, making him shudder beneath

  • ONLY YOU, NO CONTRACTS.   BEACH FESTIVAL

    His deep voice cut through, interrupting the nonsense she was about to start spilling after checking him out. "It's fine."Before she could ask for the payment. Kai handed her his card.Minutes later, Tiffany walked back to their space. Kai lounged on the sunbed, his head tilted back, eyes closed as the warmth of the Hawaiian sun kissed his tanned skin.Tiffany's gaze trailed over him as she approached, her lips parting slightly at the sight of his toned chest rising and falling with each steady breath. The white shorts hung low on his waist and his open crochet shirt doing little to hide the sculpted lines of his torso. He looked effortlessly stunning, and from the way a few women nearby stole lingering glances at him, she wasn’t the only one who thought so.A flicker of possessiveness stirred in her chest. Without a second thought, she climbed onto his lap, her thighs settling on either side of him. The sudden warmth of her body against his stirred him from his relaxed state, and h

  • ONLY YOU, NO CONTRACTS.   VACATION HOUSE

    The next morning, Tiffany barely had any time to sleep. They were heading somewhere, but Kai hadn’t told her where.Peter was driving while Kai sat in the back with her. Tiffany rested against his body as he made adjustments to some files Peter had handed him before they got into the car."Sir, we've arrived," Peter announced.Kai looked at Tiffany. She was asleep. He leaned closer, his voice soft. "Wake up, baby, we’re here."Tiffany let out a low growl, stretching. "I'm tired," she mumbled, sitting up.Kai smiled, taking her hands. "Don't worry, you'll get plenty of sleep if I decide to be nice," he whispered, opening the car door.As Kai helped her out, Tiffany gasped at the sight of the jet. She should have been used to this by now, but she wasn’t. It always felt new to her."What? We’re travelling?" Tiffany said loudly, the sleep in her eyes vanishing instantly.Tiffany’s eyes widened as she took in the jet, the bold lettering of Kai’s name gleaming against the pristine white bod

  • ONLY YOU, NO CONTRACTS.   FOCUS, TIFFANY.

    Tiffany’s stomach tightened with a little excitement as she stared at them both. Where was James?She nudged Kai subtly, nodding in Noami’s direction. He followed her gaze, "I'll be back. I want to greet someone.""I'll be back. I want to greet someone," he said.Kai held her close, pressing a kiss against her cheek before watching her slip out of his arms and head toward Daniel and Noami.As Tiffany walked away, her phone buzzed. Kai took it out, raising a hand to silence whatever Levi had to say. His gaze locked onto the screen.A text message from her father.Kai glanced at Tiffany. In just a few minutes, she had joined Noami, laughing with Daniel. Without hesitation, he pulled out his phone, took a picture of the message, and then deleted it from hers. He blocked the number, his jaw tightening. One last look at Tiffany, and then he disappeared into the crowd, dialling the number on his own phone instead.Meanwhile, as Tiffany approached, Noami had already spotted her and signalled

  • ONLY YOU, NO CONTRACTS.   AN OLD FRIEND

    Kai stood frozen, staring at Tiffany as if she had just dropped a bombshell. "What?" His voice was sharp with disbelief.Tiffany, kneeling in the garden, gently patted the soil around her freshly replanted flowers. She glanced back at him with a teasing smile. "Why are you so surprised?""You mean the dealer was Levi? The Levi I know?" His brows furrowed, his jaw tightening."I'm not sure if you know another Levi, but yes. I signed the deal with him." She dusted off her gloves, her tone calm and composed. "He made me a great offer and even wants me to open a branch in London. T&N Styles is doing really well, Kai. Oh, and we got invited to his fashion show next week."Kai didn’t respond right away. His scowl deepened, making Tiffany giggle. "Aren’t you the one always digging into people’s business? What happened, big boy? Lost your touch?""Tiffany," Kai said, his voice low, serious.Tiffany's heart skipped a beat. He rarely used her full name. Her playful smirk faded. "Why are you loo

  • ONLY YOU, NO CONTRACTS.   A MESS ON HIS DESK

    Tiffany stepped into the sleek, glass-walled lobby of Kai’s office building, her heels clicking against the polished marble floor. Behind her was Audrey who held onto her small bag. The receptionist blinked at her in surprise, her gaze darting between Audrey and Tiffany. "Uh, ma’am—" Tiffany raised a hand, waving off in tiny. "I’m here to see Kai."The woman hesitated. "Kai?" She whispered, trying to process the name, and gasped when it came to her. "Mr Winson is currently in a meeting—"Tiffany smirked, already swaying toward the private elevator. "Thank you."With a few quick steps, she slipped inside before the receptionist could say anything else. Tiffany pressed the button on his floor.As the elevator doors shut, she leaned against the mirrored walls, fixing her hair and adjusting her dress. A fixed smile played on her lips like it wasn't meant to leave. The elevator doors slid open, and she stepped onto the executive floor, where Kai’s assistant, Peter, immediately shot to h
