last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56

Chloe woke up in a pair of Kyle's satin pajama bottoms with a matching top folded into a cloud-like king sized bed and blinked at the New York Skyline out the window. It was Christmas Eve, and she was in New York City. She smiled and stretched then got out of bed and padded to the window.

"Can't get enough of it, can you?" Kyle asked walking into the room.

"It's the perfect view of everything. The Bridge and the Empire State Building. I love the Empire State Building and just the whole city right here when you go to sleep and then when you wake up. It's gorgeous."

"Mmm." He pulled off a paint-splattered shirt and headed to the master bathroom. "You can live here if you want, you know. Offer still stands."

"I know."<

    "Did the dress come?" Kyle asked as an afterthought almost while they rode the elevator up to his apartment."Yeah," Chloe told him. "It's gorgeous. Did you pick it out?""Mmm.""Thanks. It had to have cost a lot though-""It's nothing." He cut her off then got out of the elevator as it had reached his apartment. I should have known he picked it out. She thought to herself. Gay guys have great taste after all. He told her to get ready while he went to his office to do some work or make some calls she really didn't know. She was just finish

    ** Bonus Chapters!! Happy Holidays!! Thank you for your support! (^v^) ** Chloe was at the top of the empire state building. The wind was cold and biting, as she looked in the people finder. She moved it around until she saw what looked like three dead faceless bodies. She blinked, and the viewfinder turned off, turning a dark red color. She looked around and saw Mrs. Davis, but she looked like the before pictures and was pointing down at something. Chloe looked down and couldn't see what Marlow was pointing at. She leaned over further and finally was able to see Mr. Kawasaki and Heather at the bottom of the building on a sheet of perfect glass in a puddle of blood that was slowly creeping and spreading outward. She began to slip and just as she fell she woke up gasping. She sat up, and Kyle's arm around her pulled her to him. He was propped up on an el

    Chloe went and took a bath in the Jacuzzi and pulled a book down from Kyle's bookshelf against the wall near the sitting area. The Count of Monte Cristo, she had never read it, but Nicki Moulton had told her she should have several times, it was one of his favorites. She began reading it while in the bath and continued long after the water had cooled. She sat wrapped in a towel in one of the armchairs. She was still reading it when Kyle walked in, took a shower then walked back out in a suit. She was laying on the bed reading it when she heard him return and start working on something in the next room. Chloe was still reading when Kyle came into the room and climbed in the bed under the comforter that she was effectively pinning down and sprawled crookedly acros

    Chloe got in her borrowed black Corolla wearing an off the shoulder sweater, jeans, her rabbit boots and her coat she had left out. Kyle put her luggage in the trunk, and she thanked him then headed to the airport to pick up Liam. She had told him what Brownstone said, and he agreed she shouldn't be alone. He was going to stay with her until they caught Marilyn. It was already dark when she got to the airport and pulled up to where Liam waited for her at his gate. "So this is why the patrol couldn't find you?" Liam said getting in the Corolla. "Patrol?" Chloe pulled away from the curb and headed to her house. "I told you I wasn't home. Brownstone wanted me to lay low." "Yeah, you said you were at a friend's, so I sent Patrol to Katherine Chevy's place, and they couldn'

    Chloe woke up to a mouth on hers, and she blinked into the dark with a start gasping into the mouth. She felt a hot body pressed against hers and realized she had no clothes on. She was still wearing her necklace, but her t-shirt and panties had been removed. She was getting dizzy and almost out of breath when she was released from the kiss."You went to bed without me," Liam whispered in her ear. "And you were dressed.""I…" Liam was nibbling her earlobe, and she felt him hot between her legs. "I tried to wait up.""I want you," Liam said and was sucking on her breast teasing her nipple as he engulfed her. When he let go, he finished his sentence, "to feel what I feel.""Ah." She opened her legs to him as he

    Chloe woke up, she was in a family room of a split level house. She recognized it almost immediately as Veronica Moulton's. It was the house Veronica lived in with her mother, Gerri before they both got married and moved out. Gerri had gotten married and moved an hour out of town and left her house to Veronica. Later Veronica married Nicki and moved around the corner from Chloe. Chloe had never thought to ask what had happened to the house and Veronica never mentioned it, but here it was exactly as she remembered it. The furniture was the same though a bit dingier and the carpeting, wall fixtures, everything was as it had been when Veronica lived here. It didn't make sense to Chloe. Surely they would have taken their things with them and whoever the new owners were wouldn't want pictures of Veronica and her mother on the walls. Chloe blinked and noticed

"Yes, yes I'm fine Josh. My name is Chloe Harris I'm thirty, and I want to go home." "Fine by me." He told her with a smile. "I want to make my wife’s new years eve party if I can."

    "Maybe we can help distract each other," Jackson suggested. "Mmm." She moaned as he kissed her again, closed the door without leaving and carried her to bed. Chloe thought at long last something good would come of all this turmoil she had been through. She was tired of all the craziness and just wanted to have a night where she didn’t have to think about her dead husband, or neighbors, or the neighbors brother stalking her and running her down. “Aaahh..” Jax had somehow already stripped Chloe down to her bra and panties and had been squeezing her breasts like two stress balls before he pinched her nipples hard. “Can I?” Jax suddenly stopped and asked in a hoarse voice if he could take her bra off. Why now was he asking? He hadn’t asked about anything else.

    Meredith had followed Brayden through the closet where the bedroom was. A large king sized bed sat in the middle of the room against the left wall facing a window to the right. There was a white sheer curtain that was on a round track that encircled the bed. The curtains were pulled back and framed the bed on either side.There was a small seating area past the bed but Meredith was more concerned with the bed in front of her. She sighed a sigh of relief and as she went around to the other side of the bed as she left Brayden’s side their hands drifted apart.Meredith sat on the bed then turned to Brayden and he nodded. She followed him back into the closet where he opened a bag and pulled out a smaller bag and handed to her and he guided her to the bathroom that was connected to the closet by a door in the middle of the closet on the same wall as the bedro

She was focusing on imagining her future when she heard someone clear their throat. “Uh, excuse me do you mind?” She looked up and saw a tall, lanky man with short shaggy curly brown hair.
