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

    a minute after Tony had left, Skylar got up and headed for the beach. Not to look for Luca, but because she needed time and the calming effects of the waves to reflect on things.The beach wasn't even half as packed as it'd been in the afternoon since it was evening. The glow of the somewhat dark sky and the crescent moon casted on the ocean made it look like shimmering swathes of jeweled silk. Skylar chose a spot on the white sand away from the shore and sat down, gazing at the sea as it crashed and fizzled on the shores.Why was it that her past was coming back to kick her in the ass? First was the situation with Ramiro, and now this.She felt a presence beside her and looked up in time to find Luca lowering to the ground beside her. His face was a carefully formed facade of impassiveness. "How many more relationships and marriages have you destroyed?"She let out a weary sigh and turned her head away from him to look back at the sea. "The last thing I need is you judging me and my

    "Come on, you've gotta give me something, Luca." Skylar pleaded obstinately as they stepped out of a restaurant. "You checked us out of the hotel, and now you've made us order takeout instead of just eating in the restaurant. What is going on?"Luca smiled at the look of innocent curiosity in her eyes. What he hadn't told her was that he'd gone grocery shopping in the afternoon when he'd forced her to review the reports he'd been given at Reynolds and Associations, New Jersey branch, and he'd already brought the items to where he intended for them to spend the rest of the trip.Even though he wanted to keep his plans a secret, the look she was giving him broke his resolve, so he raised both his hands which held their takeaway bags of food and admitted defeat. "Fine. You aren't going to relent until I tell you, are you?""You know me." She crossed her arms on her chest with a victorious look, smacking her lips in a smug manner. The action reminded him of hot, wild kisses, the kind he

    After ripping off each others clothes amid hot, hungry, passionate, utterly devastating kisses, Luca swept her off her feet with her in just her panties and him in his boxer briefs, carrying her bridal style across the hall she'd barely cared to admire and took her to a room down the hallway.Placing her on the bed, he shifted his weight on the space beside her without breaking the kiss. He slid his hand down her stomach, lower and lower. His hand travelled past the waist band of her panties, gliding through damp curls until his fingers finally reached their destination.A raspy moan tore from her throat when a gentle finger slipped into the fissure of her weeping sex. What little control she'd had on her emotions was gone; it couldn't exist beside such exquisite pleasure.He added a second finger, then a third, moaning along with her as though the sound of her pleasure gave him his. Finally breaking their kiss, his lips trailed along her jaw to her neck then lower, leaving feiry ting

    The warm sunlight on Skylar's skin woke her up slowly. Opening her eyes and blinking to adjust her eyes to the light filtering through the curtains, she stretched her arm out to hold the man she thought was beside her, only to embrace a pillow.The panic that snapped through her was instant. Jerking up, she looked around the room, and not finding him, felt the cold arms of shock and denial as they wrapped around her. No he couldn't have left her just like that. He'd said he wanted something more than a one night stand.Trying to trample the doubts that scourged her mind, she got out of the bed and out of the room. Her fears dissipated when the delicious smell of coffee filtered through her nostrils together with the captivating smell of other aromas. Her stomach rumbled and she suddenly remembered that this was Luca's beach house and not her house.She let her savour trail her towards the mouthwatering scent, admiring the interior of the house as she went. The immediate view when you

    Skylar emerged from the hallway about a minute later, her phone on her ear. "Nicole, I already told you I'm on a business trip with my boss. Yeah."She was so gorgeous and in her element with her wide hips and the rest of her luscious body on full display. And she looked so. . . pure.Ironic, huh? The thought was out before he could trample it. Luca stiffened. What the hell was wrong with him?He watched her and sat up straight as she slumped into the far end of the couch, lifting her legs to place them over his thighs. "I already told you how much I hate these surprise visits of yours. I've told you a thousand times that you should give me prior notice before visiting me. Now look that you've wasted a trip."She tossed her head back and sighed as her sister said something on the other end. "Nicole, I'm not scolding you. I'm just..." She gasped as he ran his hand along her inner thighs. "...pointing out the facts."He loved the sounds she made when he touched her, and a naughty thought

    "Skylar babe!" Daniella Hoying shouted, obviously giddy with excitement as Skylar approached the table by which she stood fretting. She didn't seem to care about the disapproving glares the other people in the restaurant were throwing her.Unable to help her own excitement, Skylar met her in a vehement hug that made her stumble a little. It'd been almost a year since she'd seen her best friend, so she hadn't wasted time in skipping the ten minutes she had at work before lunch break after Ella had phoned her."Oh my God, I missed you so much, Skylar." The blonde gushed loudly. "I can't believe it's been like a year already. Even more! I missed you too. Much much more." Unable to help it, they embraced in a jittery hug once again as Skylar felt joy bubble through her."Yes, it's been a year." Ella agreed, taking her seat after they'd broke the hug. "But the year has been so good to you. Damn, you look even more radiant and gorgeous." Her eyes scanned Skylar as she also took her seat,

    A light knock echoed through Luca's quiet office. He frowned, wondering whether it was Sandra. Hadn't she announced her departure like half an hour ago?The person who entered, however, wasn't Sandra. This one had anticipation tearing through his veins."Skylar?" He said, smiling warmly at her. "You know you didn't have to knock, right?""Um, Sir, I just came to enquire whether you needed anything. You see my time is up." With her handbag slung on her left arm, she twiddled her fingers and avoided his gaze modestly, pulling her face into a pouty, seductive look which still managed to look innocent.Desire punched him in all the right places. The woman could just drink from a straw and look sexy as hell."Uh, you mean you just came to ask whether I could give you what you need?" He asked with a teasing smile.She batted her eyelashes at him and huffed in mock annoyance as she looked away. "I don't know what you are talking about, Sir.""Oh you don't?" He stood up and grinned, grateful

    Torture.To Luca, having to see Skylar for the next two days walking around him in snug skirts and just being herself while forcing himself to keep his hands to himself, to not grab her and kiss her senseless and then revel in the heated depths of her pussy, was the new definition of torture.He swore there were times his control was just about snapping but for some divine grace. But he knew it was for the best because he couldn't afford to show anymore vulnerability. He'd shown enough weakness in the elevator as it is. Skylar on the other hand had exuded nothing but control and self restraint so much that he felt emasculated, a first which scared him shitless. Because he was beginning to fear that the woman didn't crave him as intensely as he craved her.Luca's phone dinged with a notification as he stood in front of the counter in a grocery store waiting for the salesgirl to issue the deduction of the money for what he'd bought and hand him back his card. Looking at the screen, he

  • Taming My Hot Personal Assistant   Author's Final Note

    Hey guys,This has been a long journey of a little over three months, and I know that reading this story must've been a bit frustrating because of my unscheduled updates where you never know when to expect the next chapter in a day. But y'all stuck with me, and I'm so grateful for that. Thank you so much for the patience.There were times I wanted to give up because writing was so stressful but all your comments kept me on my toes, along with all those beautiful gems you gifted me. They're truly appreciated.A few of you might not agree with some directions I decided to take, but I realize I can't satisfy everyone. I do believe in second chances as long as the other person is remorseful and willing to change. And I tried to be as realistic about the whole thing as possible.That being said, this is my first story on here, and I'm not perfect. There's always room for improvement for my future books, so do let me know; Where did I lack? What could I have done better? Were there issues yo

    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
