Santa Fe Billionaire Chapter Twenty Six
SebastianAs soon as I leave the boardroom I take a right along the cool air conditioned hallway and head for reception. Greta our new German intern is on reception today. She smiles at the sight of me and raises her hand in a small wave. "Good morning Sñr Garcia." Her accented voice is pleasant. She has been with us just a few months but already showing promise. Her next few months will be followed with a term in the marketing team, sales team and then she will spend much time with Elena my assistant until she can decide what part of the hotel industry she wants to specialize in. I see her blush when I smile back at her. She blushes a lot. "Good morning, Greta. I hope everything is going well. Please call me Sebastian. You make me sound old like my father when you call me Sñr Garcia. We do not need to be so formal here." I have told her this before but perhaps this time it will make her feel somewhat more comfortable. It is true, we run an informal show here. It is better for my em
Santa Fe Billionaire Chapter Twenty Seven
AvaI have so far managed to see everything Grenada has to offer from the stunning Alhambra Palace which offered me spectacular views and its intricate architecture. I am fascinated with all things Islamic in design and this was one of the first things I went to visit. It was absolutely amazing and I could have spent all day just being at the Alhambra Palace snapping merrily away. To the Albaicin neighborhood. Wow what a place. Steeped in history with such vivid colours and fragrances of all the spices and herbs. It is the former Arab neighborhood and even had many stores in souk style. I was in my element and found it difficult to pull myself away. However, the cathedral beckoned and I didn't want to miss it.Before I knew it my mobile, when I checked showed me it was past two o'clock. I'd literally missed lunch and only stopped for coffees and pastels. I can't go anywhere without dosing up on caffeine. Sebastian's driver had stayed discreetly in the background. I'd informed him I wa

Ava"Oh. My. God." Zoe is practically screeching down the phone. "You did what? You ran away from him after he asked you out to another dinner? What is wrong with you, Ava. Honestly." I have my mobile slightly away from my ear, I can tell she is really pissed at me right now. I stare up at the ceiling and watch as the fan goes round, it's part of an art-deco ceiling lamp and it's really captivating as it whirs around. "I know. I know." I say biting my lower lip. "I just got scared. I haven't got that shag them and leave them gene in my body. Even though he is so hot I could jump his bones." I giggle. She doesn't. I can tell Zoe is hacked off with me for not even considering it. "On top of that I've made a right idiot out of myself for just running away. But oh my God. When I touched him I felt like my fingers were shot with electricity.""You're so dumb sometimes, Ava. I just can't believe you ran away from him. You have to go and seek him out and tell him you'd love to have dinner

SebastianI stop and feel as if my jaw has dropped to the ground. I quickly place my hand to my chin to make sure it is where it is supposed to be. "Are you listening, Sebastian?" I hear this evening's receptionist saying to me. "It is urgent. Room 198 have no air conditioning. They have raised a complaint. Can I give them the room free of charge for the upgrade. I'm moving them into the Malaga suite." "Yes, yes whatever you think is best." I don't look back as I make my way to the goddess who is coming my way. Her hair is around her shoulders and her lipstick is siren red. I want to kiss her so much until her lips are nude of it. The dress hugs her chest and cinches in her waist which is so narrow then flares out at her hips. She is a vision who has taken my breath away. "Ava." I say as I walk towards her. "What can I do for you? Do you need anything? Tell me and I will organize it for you." She looks bold and confident, I'm feeling my heart racing. Am I panting like a dog? I need

AvaI'm sitting here watching him as he speaks to someone on the phone. His driver no doubt and I am nervous and excited both at the same time. I'm wondering what on earth I am doing agreeing to this dinner date. And I am also worried what might happen after dinner. Will I allow him to give me a chaste kiss or will I take us to the first base. I haven't dated not properly since before I met Mark and that was when I was nineteen. So you see it's been over five years. I am seriously out of practice.Has time moved on so quickly that I'm out of touch with dating? I wonder if I should quickly Google modern day dating. I mean are the bases even the same? Do they have the same meaning? Only nowadays the world seems to be a bit sex obsessed and well I am a healthy woman and I certainly give my vibrator some action, but with a man so soon after Mark. Is it right? Is it normal? None of this is normal to me and to be perfectly honest, I feel exactly as I did on my first date all those years ago
Santa Fe Billionaire Chapter Thirty One
SebastianI can tell Ava is slightly drunk she seems more chatty and engaged. I actually think she is flirting with me and to be honest I haven't got a clue what I should do. It has been a beautiful evening. My friend Antonio has made the terrace even more stunning than I can remember. There are fairy lights everywhere, a hammock in the corner that to be honest I'd love to lay on with Ava in my arms. Just rocking gently away as the fresh evening air brushes our skin delicately and we stare up in wonderment at the stars.I love to look at the stars, I find them amazing, peaceful and a total mystery. The moon is not quite full tonight but nonetheless it is gracing the sky with its presence. Ava is telling me about her ex. The one I'd like to smack in the face. He makes me so angry that he has literally discarded Ava for being who she is. What angers me the most is him knowing that Ava's profession is lucrative as an influencer with a large on line presence and yet he has belittled it. A
Santa Fe Billionaire Chapter Thirty Two
AvaI can't believe how brazen I have just been. I almost feel like a complete and utter hussy. Maybe it's the champagne, maybe it's Zoe's voice in the back of my mind telling me to have fun, let my hair down and get over Mark. Or perhaps it really is time that I throw a little caution to the wind and start to enjoy myself. So what if I am not staying in Spain for the rest of my life. I am here now, I've already decided that I'll stay in Malaga for longer than intended then I may even go to Santander or to Bilbao. Who knows, I have the world at my feet right now and I need to make the most of it. I suspect it's the champagne, the twinkling fairy lights, the gentle and romantic music piping through the speakers and of course an extremely hot man sitting right in front of me.I also don't think I can over-ride this feeling inside me. My stomach is nuts with fluttering, my heart is racing so much I can feel the pressure in my ears and my panties, well let's say that I haven't felt this w

AvaWow is all I can think as he leads me into his penthouse apartment. In the lift my emotions ranged from feeling like I was on Cloud nine to dipping with a lack of self confidence and concern that I was making a big mistake. Like I said I really am not the sleeping around kind of girl. The fluttering in my stomach is relentless. "This is me." Sebastian says as he places a hand on my lower back. There it is again that warm sensation floating up from my stomach, up my chest and to my neck. I can feel myself becoming flushed and warm. He was the perfect gentleman on the way here and in the lift, just making small talk and am I nervous right now? You bet I am. More nervous than I have ever been even more than when I had to sit exams.What if he thinks I'm a terrible kisser? Right I need to stop that. All of a sudden I don't feel quite as merry as I did at dinner. The champagne buzz must be wearing off rather quickly. He reaches out to the left and places his hand on the wall. Lights

Santa Fe Billionaire Chapter Seventy Eight
Ava - Six Months Later I'm standing in a beautiful large suite with a terrace on which sit two white iron chairs and a round table. The view is across olive groves and lavender-dusted hillsides to the majestic mountains where last night I watched the most spectacular sunset as I gazed over the scenic Sierra Morena. I sat here serenely by myself thinking this is the best decision I have ever made. My insides are all a flutter with butterflies, my heart feels like it will explode with happiness and I have had a perma-smile for the last few months. Life couldn't have been more beautiful nor moved as quickly as it has. In just these few months I have moved lock, stock and barrel to live with Sebastian in his ranch just outside of Santa Fe. Nestled in a wondrous spot just outside of the town where he was born. It is a sprawling plot of land where horses can roam freely. We have goats, sheep and a couple of cows. Bella loves tending to them and recently Sebastian bought her geese and duck

Sebastian “Hello my beautiful, American Girl.” Her face is a picture as her jaw looks like it has dropped to the ground. Her beautiful green eyes wide and now she is running toward me. Ava’s arms open wide and she throws herself into me. “Oh my God, how on earth did you do this?” I knew she’d be surprised and happy. It is the least I could do to fly the ten hours back to meet her for our return to Spain. I didn’t want my girl to have to travel to her new home all on her own. Not at all. This experience we should share together, like so many more experiences we will have in our lifetime together. This woman is precious to me, I worship the ground that she walks on, I love everything about her from the mole just above her lip to the hair on her head. Talking of which smells like coconut and lemons as she presses her head into my shoulder. My arms are already around her and I hold her into me tightly. It feels like we have been separated for months not just days. It’s felt like an eter

TateWell that all went too quickly and now I have mascara smudged all over my eyes from crying so much after dinner which mom managed to make in record time. She’s already talking about Thanksgiving. I’m definitely coming home for that and Sebastian can put an army of bodyguards on me if he needs to. Although I am sure by the time November comes round, Mark will have moved on. Hopefully.Thanksgiving is one of my most favorite times of the year. We all get together and my mother’s sister and husband come over with their now grown-up children, Louisa and Denise. It’s always a really warm and fuzzy time of year. Zoe comes too but later as she always holds a Thanksgiving dinner for her special clients who don’t have anyone at the time of year. She’s so kind hearted and has never missed a Thanksgiving for them. This year she will have Nate to help her and that makes me feel warm inside. The thought of someone standing by her side.I hugged my parents like there was no tomorrow and Zoe be

Tate I’m still in a sulk. I should be excited beyond belief to be flying back to Spain to see and be with Sebastian again this evening. It’ll be the early of the hours of course since they won’t be ready for me until seven tonight. Right when I should be going out with Zoe and Nate for dinner. I then have a wild idea of having them come with me to Spain and being flown back in a week’s time. Only that is a pipeline dream since Zoe has her business to run and Nate has patients to see. Mom has been frantic all day at the thought of me flying out later this evening. She’s overwhelmed to say the least and I get that, I really do. Dad hasn’t taken it all too well either and shot off to the golf course to hit balls on the driving range. It’s now eleven and I am still in my bloody pjs. What I need is to shower and get my shit together and head over to the apartment to pack a few things into my larger suitcases. You know like personal belongings I want before my stuff arrives, clothes, shoes
Santa Fe Billionaire Chapter Seventy Four
TateI tried to ignore the message as best I could. Dillon left us around eight last night and Liam came to take over. He wasn’t the same build as Dillon by any stretch. In fact as I looked out of my bedroom window down to the front porch as he arrived, I’d easily say he could pass as a doppelganger for David Beckham. Victoria is a lucky lady, well not as lucky as me because I have Sebastian and he is in a league of his own. But nonetheless.Naturally, I went down to greet Liam. He is from Texas and has that lovely drawl thing going on. I showed him the latest message from my ex. “Don’t worry ma’am. We’ve got this. Ain’t nothing gonna happen to you, with me on watch. If he’s dumb enough to show up around here, he’s gonna have to answer t’me.”I felt reassured but I’m still freaked out this is even happening to me. Why can’t Mark just take it on the chin that we’re over? He is the one that ended our relationship. Or perhaps he can’t handle rejection. Maybe there is more to the split be

Ava “Honey it’s so good to see you. It feels like you’ve been away for weeks and it’s only been a couple of days.” My mother rushes to me as I enter the cosy kitchen. As usual she is cooking and wearing her blue apron with her tied up in a messy bun. She looks so inviting and I allow her to take me into her arms and press me right into her bosom. I’ve missed my mom so much. She is right though, it does feel as if it’s been weeks not just a couple of days. So much has happened what with bumping into Mark, his threatening/nuisance messages, Arabella practically rejecting me and having a blinking bodyguard now of all things. Who, by the way I have left standing outside for the time being. Best not to overwhelm my mother in the first few seconds of arriving back home. “I know. It feels like it’s been ages too.” I say as I place my portfolio on the two-seater sofa in the inglenook in the kitchen and slip my rucksack off my shoulders and place it on the sofa too. It’s looking a bit jaded
Santa Fe Billionaire Chapter Seventy Two
SebastianMy blood is boiling to the point I am so fired up I could punch a wall. It is not often I lose control like this but that man, he needs to be dealt with before anything happens. I know of men who have hurt their ex partners, stalked them and harmed them. It is an insane world and I am frightened for Ava.At least with my detail providing security for her, the man would need a shotgun to get past her bodyguard. You would think it would help to allow me to sleep better tonight, only it doesn’t. I need to have Ava here with me in Spain, like yesterday. Not in three weeks. Besides, I am craving her. I am craving her lips crushed against mine, our bodies together and her warmth underneath me.Even with all these thoughts of my American Girl I do not become aroused, my anger is so fueled that sex is the last thing on my mind. I will be viewing the ranch and meet with the current owner later this morning. Elena, my assistant has done well to narrow it down to just three ranches for

Ava I stare at my mobile as the rage and anger fuels my entire body. This man, he just won’t let up. I swear if he was standing in front of me now, I’d easily punch him in the face. I’m not even sure whether to be concerned or just laugh this off. Only he is making me a bit shaky with the tone of his message. Moving away from the patio I step back inside the penthouse suite and read the message again. You had no right to run out on me like that the other day. I only wanted to talk and express how I felt. You’re not going to get away from me, Ava. I’m still in love with you. So, I fucked up. I realize that. But if you think I’m letting you get away you need to think again. I’ve seen all your social media posts with that man and he’s not right for you. I’m going to do everything I can to show you that he is wrong for you. I am the one that is meant to be with you forever happy after Not that jumped up son-of-a-bitch. I know where you’re staying here in NYC and I’ll be waiting. I mean

Ava “Honey, of course it’s worth fighting for. Honestly, what is wrong with you? Just because his daughter doesn’t like the idea it certainly doesn’t mean she won’t change her mind. You’ve got to see it from her point of view, Ava.” I’m outside on the wrap around balcony to the penthouse back in the Waldorf Astoria gazing up at the sky as Zoe talks to me. Of course everything she’s saying is absolutely right. It still doesn’t make it any better for me though. “My heart absolutely goes out to her, Zoe. It really does. I couldn’t even imagine what it would be like to lose your mother. I’d fall apart if my mom died or my father, it’s gut wrenching. And I know the last thing she wants is someone new into their lives.” “Look take a deep breath, I know you’re gutted that you can’t move in with him, but damn girl. You’ll be living on his doorstep literally. A villa on the land sounds amazing. Sebastian will see you every day, you’ll spend nights together and get to know his little girl an
