Skylar woke up a bit late the next morning, nervousness frolicking through her veins as her memories whirled to the night before, the budding moments between her and Luca.

The sexual awareness had been gripping, the passion intense and out of this world.

The first part had been about him driving her insane to the very brink and then leaving her, and she'd sworn to pay him back in his own coin, which happened in the second part.

The feeling she'd gotten after driving him to the very edge and leaving him to fend for himself was an immense satisfaction.

But as she got ready for work, she couldn't help but wonder how things with her boss were going to be from here on.

By the time she finished, took a taxi since her car was at a repair shop, and got to the office, she was ten minutes late.

She quickly went to prepare the usual cup of coffee she gave him every morning, and when she knocked on his door, it was difficult not to hold a nervous breath.

She couldn't help but wonder whether Luc

    "Do you know I dreamt of us last night? Do you know what we were doing?" Caleb, asked rubbing slow circles on her hand."Let me guess," She said teasingly. "We were happily married with children and still more in love than ever?"An abashed smile curled up Caleb's lips when he obviously realized he'd used that line on her before. "What, you had that dream too? This just goes to prove my point that we're soul mates. Can I see you outside work?"Nostrils flaring, Luca glared between his friend and his PA while they flirted with each other, but they payed him no heed. This wasn't the first time they were flirting, and normally, Luca would've just been annoyed. But today, his jaw ticked and the muscles in his biceps pulsed with tension and another emotion he was too scared to admit. Especially after all that had happened between him and Skylar last night."Of course." Skylar replied to Caleb's plea."Really? When? Where?" The man's eyes gleamed with excitement and anticipation.Skylar st

    Skylar was all too glad when her closing time rolled by, especially after all the sexual tension that'd thrummed between her and Luca whenever their eyes met throughout the day. She was standing on the side of the street opposite Reynolds and Associations waiting for a taxi to pass by when Luca's Porche pulled up in front of her. The man himself peered at her. "Get in.""No, thank you. I think I'll do with a taxi." She rejected lightly, her heart increasing by two times it's normal beating.He blew an impatient breath. "Get in, Skylar."There was a determined, commanding edge to his voice that made made a shiver run down her spine as she got into the car. He immediately started moving the car down the road, glancing at her. "You didn't bring your car.""It's been acting funny for a while. Had to call a mechanic to take it in." She replied as casually as she could.But casually was hard to come by when the sexual awareness was so thick she could feel it in her bones despite how much

    Sitting on a swivel stool at the counter of a nightclub, Luca spun around to face the dancefloor, taking in the lewd scenes to see whether it would help him purge out the woman who'd been infiltrating his nightly fantasies for five days straight.It only seemed to make things worse, so huffing, he swiveled round to face the barman just as he placed his order on the countertop. Luca wrapped his hand around the neck of the frigid bottle of tequila and was just about to raise it to his mouth when suddenly it was Skylar's breast he was fondling as he plunged into her deep from behind. In his imagination, anyways.Cursing loudly, he whisked the drink up and downed as much of the cold brew as possible, hoping it would quench the hot images running wild in his head and cool the fire burning in his groin.When it did bupkis to help him, he set the bottle down with a forceful thud along with a loud grunt, frustrated at all the reckless hunger gripping him. Hunger for a woman who could destroy

    "...so we managed to sort everything out without getting our company's name too involved in the whole affair, though the general manager of the advertisement sector said he would've taken full responsibility had things gone out of hand.""I'm glad things didn't get out of hand. Anything else, Sandra?" Luca enquired from his secretary. It was a wonder he'd heard anything she'd said in the first place considering the fact that his eyes had stayed glued to a certain caramel skinned beauty who stood glaring at him beside Sandra the whole time.He'd never seen her get so fidgety under anyone's gaze, and he reveled in the fact that he'd attained that feet."Yes, and I have reports about the various ongoing construction projects." Sandra continued. "For the hotel in Massachusetts..."Luca tuned her out completely as he allowed his eyes to savour Skylar. From her oval shaped face, her small, pointed nose, and her luscious lips, her face was every definition of beauty. Even though for whateve

    Burning with fury, Skylar glued her eyes to the view of the clouds whisking by swiftly instead of the infuriatingly handsome, sexy hunk who wouldn't even look at her as they rode his private jet to Atlantic City even though he'd forced her to take the seat opposite his.He'd been focusing on his laptop, ignoring her ever since the flight begun and he claimed he was trying to woo her into exclusivity with him? The cheek of it!She didn't know she'd huffed until she felt his gaze burning into her skull. "Is everything alright, Vanilla?"Snapping her head to look at him, she etched on a grimace. "Everything is okay, thank you very much. And stop calling me that!" "Jeez, why are you so hot and bothered?" A teasing smile was playing on his lips."I am not hot and bothered." She shot at him through gritted teeth as she crossed her arms on her chest and returned her gaze to the window.But she knew he was right. She was hot and bothered and she'd been feeling that way since Friday night afte

    Because Skylar knew that he was a man who was as good as his words, she clamped her mouth shut, not daring to give him anymore licence to fuel her further.Contorting her face into a deep scowl -and she did that a lot nowadays, she realized - Skylar picked her phone from the bed and launched the fruit slashing game on it, forcing herself to focus on the game instead of the illegally gorgeous man who now stood at the window talking on the phone. The towel emphasized his sexy, well defined ass, and because of how low it hung, the topmost part of the crevice that divided his asscheeks was on full display.Focus on the game, Skylar. Focus!From her peripheral vision, she saw him walk to the closet, pull something out and then disappear into the bathroom five seconds later. Finally able to breathe freely, Skylar slumped against the headboard of the bed and closed her eyes, wondering why there seemed to be no word like control nowadays when she was around Luca.Her moment of peace barely l

    Skylar clenched a fistful of sand, destroying the sand castle she was building all alone when a loud shriek which seemed to be the loudest among the cacophony of several voices at the beach reached her ear.Looking up to find Blondie running off into the water while Luca made a show of chasing her, jealousy jutted it's grotesque head, far more sharply than Skylar would ever admit to. She hadn't known how much she hated platinum blondes until now, which said a lot about her disconcerted state of mind considering that her best friend, Ella, was platinum blonde.You have your freedom for the day. Let's just see how many guys you can fuck before the day ends.His words just before he'd gone off to gallivant rang in her head, and it made her grit her teeth so tightly she was surprised they didn't shatter.

    The stupefying insult practically echoed through the whole restaurant. Voices died as heads turned their way."Excuse me?" Skylar said, bringing her outstretched arm down. She felt more poleaxed than offended by the sudden burst of antagonism from this woman she'd never met before.Anthony McGuire held his sister by the shoulder, grabbing her attention. "Sarah, what the hell are you doing?"She turned to her brother with a pained look. "It is her. She's the woman who destroyed my marriage." When she turned back to Skylar, the hate that emanated from her nearly made her flinch. "It is her.""I'm sorry, you are talking to the wrong person. I don't even know you." Skylar pointed out, startled by the accusation. As if seeing Anthony for the first time after what she'd done to him years ago wasn't enough, the woman seemed to be looking to compound her guilt."I can never forget that skin colour. That beauty you used to snatch him away from me." Her tone had gotten higher, almost hysterical

    The first clue read: YES! YES! I KNOW THAT YOU'RE A DAY OLD, SO LOOK FOR THE FIRST TREASURE WHERE THINGS GET COLD.So Skylar did remember. Grinning like an idiot, Luca figured the first one out easily. It was obviously the fridge. But they had two. One in the kitchen and another at the corner of the wall near the dining table. He took a chance on the one near the dining area, and he was right.His first treasure was there, a somewhat rectangular gift wrapped up so that he couldn't see what it was. Attached to it was the second clue.It read: A MAJESTIC THRONE THAT NO ONE WANTS, YET WE ALL HAVE TO RULE OVER EVERY OTHER DAY.His brows drew together. A throne? Since he was standing around the dining table, his eyes went straight to the chairs there first. But the clue said no one wants it, so it definitely couldn't be those chairs. It took him five minutes of running all around the ground floor before he finally figured it out. When he did, he burst out laughing. What the heck? So the t

    ONE YEAR LATERLuca was pissed.The day hadn't gone exactly how he'd envisioned it, and he'd been complaining the whole evening. The unfortunate listeners of his lashing out were Caleb and Abhishek.“How could she just forget?” He grouched. “Everyone remembered. My mum, Ella... Heck, even you guys remembered. And she forgets?”“Uh, with all due respect, your highness, your mother gave birth to you. She's the most inclined to remember when it's your birthday.” Abhishek had the very salient idea of mocking him, becoming the recipient of Luca's very unhappy glare.Caleb wasn't fazed though. “Dude, why are you making this a big deal? I'm sure Skylar had stuff on her mind and things to do, and she must've forgotten. Just remind her when you get home. No big deal.”Luca transferred his glare to the other man. “No big deal? It's not like we're 60 or something. We've just been living together for a year! How the hell does she forget my birthday? She didn't have to remind me when it was her bir

    Licking her tongue down his neck, Skylar groaned along with him as she stroked his hard-as-granite dick. God, she loved how his dick felt in her hand. So warm and meaty and hard and just so damn good. She found herself salivating, her mouth's wish to get reacquainted with his delicious member.Without hesitation, she dropped to her knees, sliding his pants and boxers down to the middle of her thighs. His erection bounced out, the huge member bumping against her face Grabbing it, she licked him from the base up to the tip, reveling when he let out a sharp sound of pleasure."Fuck, Vanilla." He groaned. "Open that mouth of yours. Just like that."Taking the tip in, she swirled her tongue around it for a bit before taking him further. Just like she remembered, she could only get half of him in without gagging, but almost four years of not doing this didn't mean she'd forgotten how to work within her limits.She had Luca groaning and gasping for air as she bobbed her head up and down, let

    Once Alex left, Luca refused to talk about anything having to do with him. He claimed he wasn't upset, but his actions afterwards proved contrary.He drove her to her house so that she could get dressed for work, but he barely said a word to her.Laura was horrified when Skylar told her about what Alex did, but the nanny ended up also concluding that Alex definitely didn't have bad intentions. That only seemed to tick Luca off some more.He drove to the company in brooding silence and didn't even give her a goodbye kiss when he parted to go check out some issues with Brandon Wood, the new branch CEO.Then again, Skylar was definitely not prepared for any PDA that would blow up the secretaries' group chat with gossip. She knew most of the people in the company thought she climbed up too quickly and had always linked it to her having an affair with Hector Lancaster. She didn't want them seeing her with Luca and making all sort of bullshit up to suit that narrative again. Luca didn't say

    Alex caught the swaying of Nicole's body before she let go, so he had enough time to react and catch her in his arms."Hey. Nicole? Nicole?" He called out softly, realizing she'd passed out.Lowering her onto the couch, he held her cheek in his hand and tried to shake her gently, but she didn't react in any way.Panic shooting through him, he gathered her into his arms, ready to take her to the hospital. He didn't know what was wrong with her, but he wasn't about to take the chance of waiting for her to wake up first.Getting out of the apartment, he was just heading towards the elevator when she finally stirred in his arms."Nicole, you're awake. Thank God!" He said but he didn't stop the journey to the elevator."Alex, where are you taking me?" Nicole groaned."To the hospital.""I'm conscious now. I don't want to go to the hospital." She said and began squirming in his arms just when they got to the elevator, wordlessly demanding to be placed down.Alex obliged and placed her on her

    Chewing on a bowl of popcorn, Nicole sat on her couch, fast-forwarding through scenes of the K-drama she was watching on her TV. There was only so much of the goofy, cute banter she could enjoy before she got tired of the lack of story progression.Just when she got to a scene that looked to be exciting enough, her doorbell rang. Pausing the film, she set her bowl of popcorn aside and went to get the door.Her heart nearly leapt out of her chest when she opened the door to find Alex. Partly because she hadn't expected him and secondly because his face looked like a mess. He had a black eye, other bruises, and stitches marring his face."Hey, Nicole." He flashed her smile and winced like it hurt him to do that."Alex, what happened to you?!" She exclaimed, scanning his face in horror."Uh, I got beat up?" He chuckled a bit, obviously trying to deflect the gravity of the situation with humour."I can see that!" She said, "But who did that to you?""Can I come in first?""Of course, of c

    The muffled sounds of a screaming match yanked Skylar out of her deep sleep. Groaning, she snapped her eyes open and tried to focus on the altercation. She couldn't hear much, so she slipped out of bed and approached the door, the voices getting clearer the closer she got."You have some fucking nerve showing your face here, you imbecile!" That was Luca, and he sounded very angry.The sudden sound of screeching couches and painful groans snapped Skylar into action. Realizing she was just in her underwear, she quickly grabbed the dress she remembered wearing yesterday which had been thrown on the bedroom sofa and slipped it on. Opening the door, she rushed out of the bedroom and came to a startled stop at what was going on.Luca was beating the hell out of Alex who was lying helplessly on the couch. His body was vibrating with aggression, and he seemed to be channeling that aggression into every punch. Alex's face already looked like a bloody mess, yet his blows were so heavy that she

    Before the tentacles of doubts could bury its roots inside his mind, Luca held himself firm and shook his head, slicing through it until it was completely dead.No, he refused to believe it. He refused to believe that Skylar had done this to him. It just couldn't be.She loved him. Over the weekend, she'd shown him that with so much passion he'd felt it within his soul. There had been nothing like uncertainty about her love.Besides, during their fight regarding his marriage proposal, she'd told him that she wanted to spend the rest of her life with him too. She wouldn't have never said anything like that if she didn't mean it.And he believed her. He wasn't going to make the mistake of jumping to conclusions again. He'd been there before, and where had that landed him? In hell, for four fucking years. There was no way he wanted to go back there.There had to be some plausible explanation as to why she was in Alex William's house sleeping in his arms in that state. An explanation that
