Tempting The Spitfire (Temptation Series Book 6) Chapter Thirty-Two - Her Dream House
“Have you been keeping tabs on me, Christian?” She scowled at the man forgetting everything around him. The car came to a halt, and she realized they had reached his house. Her jaws dropped at the stunning villa in front of her, overlooking the beach. It was like paradise on Earth! It was her dream house! She blinked at the coincidence. Ever since she was a little girl, it had been her dream to live in such a villa! Her granny was the only person in the world who knew about her dream house! The mesmerizing place made her forget everything, and she alighted from the car and walked around the garden in front of the property. Christian watched her reaction with satisfaction. It had been almost six years since he had this house built especially for her. Skylar’s reaction was enough to make him feel indebted to granny Miriam for her valuable advice. He was glad he had consulted her before ever starting the project. “Do you like our new home?” He stood beside her as she watched the vast e

Skylar’s breath hitched, knowing what he meant. He wanted an actual relationship with her, but why would he? “How? We don’t feel a thing for one another,” she pointed out, searching his smoldering blue eyes. “We do! You cannot deny the attraction between us, Can you?” He trailed a finger along her jawline in a feather-soft touch, causing a tremor to go down her spine. It was as if he was trying to prove a point to her. “No, it’s nothing special! I’m sure you have felt it for many others before.” She held his unwavering gaze, refusing to surrender to him. “Wrong! I’ve never felt it before for anyone else but you. I’m sure you haven’t too.” He placed his arms on either side of her, making her eyes widen.“Still, I would say it’s a momentary feeling. It will pass if we ignore it.” She placed her hands on his chest to push him away, but he didn’t move even an inch. “It’s not momentary, and I can prove it to you.” “No, don’t touch me. I’ll scream the place down.” He raised an eyebrow

Skylar felt lonely in the enormous villa without Christian. Only one thought kept on disturbing her as she roamed around the property aimlessly. If she would have willingly kissed him and not called it a mistake, would he have stayed here with her? Suddenly, a wave of guilt washed over her as she sat down under the pergola. His words echoed in her head. I will if you give me company. She was ready to give him company here under the pergola, but he had left her here all alone like her parents did, as her brother did. Upset with herself, she called Hayley, but she didn’t respond. Next, she called Sienna, but she too seemed occupied. One by one, Skylar called all her friends, but each one of them was too occupied to entertain her call. Granny’s advice kept ringing in her head. She was right. They were all busy with their own lives to give her a thought. Closing her eyes, she let the tears wash away her guilt. If Christian wasn’t returning soon, she had no wish to stay here all by hers

When Christian returned, they had a delightful gourmet dinner he had specially arranged for her. Christian animatedly discussed the movie since it made him indirectly know her feelings regarding love. He couldn’t confess, but at least he could know how she felt about it. “You’re quite romantic at heart!” she pointed out with a laugh. “Obviously, I’ve been through it.” Skylar’s face fell at his admission. So, she was right. He loved someone from a very young age. “Oh! Then why didn’t you marry her?” Christian looked away, thinking of a proper answer to her question. He couldn’t tell her the real reason yet. “She doesn’t return my feelings. She doesn’t want to marry me.” Skylar thought about his predicament in silence, not knowing how to comfort him. She didn’t have any experience in this department. Strangely, her heart constricted with pain for him. At the same time, she felt jealous of the woman he was in love with!“Oh, that’s sad. Do you want me to talk to her? You shouldn’t ma

Skylar didn’t argue with him and it took him by surprise. She was too engrossed in the beauty all around her to give it much thought. She saw the name of the estate embossed on a huge board with awe.Saint James Frascati Winery. “Is there a wedding happening here?” she gasped as her gaze fell upon an arch constructed in the front yard of the resort building. There were guests gearing up to welcome the bride. She gazed at the officiant, the altar, the aisle, and the groom with wide eyes. Seeing them she could easily envisage her wedding with Christian here. “Yes, we’re fully booked right now although the inauguration was supposed to happen two days later.”“Oh, where will we stay?” she gasped, turning to glance at him.“There’s a cottage specially reserved for us wherever we visit. It’s for our personal use. Otherwise, there are only thirty guest rooms on the property right now. The response has been massive so far. We’ll surely expand in the near future.” “The wedding decor is imp

Skylar breathed in Christian’s addictive scent, lost in her dreams of the sinfully gorgeous man. Her dreams had never been so vivid as it was now! She wrapped her arm around his torso and sank into his chest, feeling his warmth envelope her. He was the only one who hadn’t let her down.He had come back for her when no one had, not her parents, nor her brother. Even her grandparents left home to live with Caleb, forcing her to spend her life in an unknown city. She didn’t like Cleveland, where she knew no one! She couldn’t live there separated from her close friends! Now, even if she was traveling to stranger cities, Christian was permanently near her. She wasn’t alone! He planted a soft kiss on her forehead, and she smiled in her sleep. The jet lag made her semi-conscious but she couldn’t open her eyes at all! “Thank you for not leaving me, Christian!” she murmured into his neck before falling into a deep slumber. Christian stilled, realizing that she knew of his presence beside he

Skylar changed for bed while Christian walked out of the room to attend an important phone call. She smiled thinking of the day they spent working together. She loved working with Christian! His words echoed in her head like a broken record. The confidence with which he claimed her as his hinted at a long-term relationship with him, like a happily ever after.It confused Skylar! Why would he want a happily ever after with her? Didn’t he love someone else? Yet he never mentioned another woman’s name. Surely if he would have loved someone so much, she would have heard of her! You couldn’t suppress true love! She changed for bed and lay down, thinking about her relationship with Christian. Could she go ahead with an actual marriage with him? What was stopping her, actually? Christian wasn’t so bad, after all! A smile lit up her lips, and she felt she could go ahead with it. Christian didn’t return to the bedroom even after an hour. Concerned, she went out in search of him. He was nowhe

After a sleepless night cramped up on a tiny bed the next morning, Skylar was in an irritable mood. She hated her life now as she had to go back to his room to use the washroom. If only she had gone to New York instead.Skylar stomped into his room, but found it vacant. Christian was nowhere around. Did he go to work early in the morning? Maybe yes, since the formal inauguration was supposed to be held today. Relieved, she freshened up and fixed herself a cup of coffee. The doorbell rang, and she rushed to open it. Who could it be? Had Christian returned from his morning jog? She remembered he had asked her to join him today. Opening the door, she gaped at the hotel staff carrying a large tray laden with a delightful breakfast. “Good morning, ma’am. Mr. St. James sent breakfast for you.” “Thank you so much.” The staff set the tray down on the table and walked away with a smile.Skylar looked at the tray and rolled her eyes. Who can eat so much? She grabbed her mobile phone and cal

Tempting The Spitfire (Temptation Series Book 6) Epilogue
Five Years Later “Wow! You’re looking so gorgeous, Skye! You look fresh as a daisy, like a virgin bride, marrying for the first time,” said Sienna while the others agreed. The last five years had been a roller-coaster ride for all of them. Motherhood and career had taken a toll on them. None of them could make it on Skylar’s first wedding anniversary. Therefore, she had dropped the idea of a reunion and party. Now, after five years, they planned to renew their vows in the presence of all their loved ones. The wedding would take place in the neighborhood church while the reception at Escapades. Maddox supervised everything to perfection, and they didn’t have to check even. “I know, right? Look at me! My hair is shedding from handling Axel and Alexander! I don’t understand how you guys handle your twins and husband,” complained Eva while fixing Skylar’s veil. “Maybe because Lucas isn’t like your Alexander!” said Sienna with a chuckle. They all giggled knowingly while Eva groaned.“I

“I’m glad you cleared your misunderstandings, Skylar. Now you can connect with them to your heart’s content like before,” said Christian. He led her towards their room to freshen up for the reception party to start in an hour. “I was very upset by their behavior at first, but later everything fell into place. They don’t want a treat now with their pregnancies. Why don’t we renew our vows on our first anniversary? We can plan it like a dream wedding and invite everyone!” “Great idea! We’ll do that. Now give me a kiss before we go down.”Skylar complied, capturing his lips in a gentle and lingering kiss. It portrayed her blissfully happy state. She was indeed now at peace with everything around her. “I want to see you this happy always!” he whispered against her lips. “I’m happy. Your presence in my life makes me happy!” He kissed her passionately, and Skylar gaped at her smudged makeup when he released her. “Oh no! You ruined my makeup.” She grabbed a tissue and started wiping it
Tempting The Spitfire (Temptation Series Book 6) Chapter Ninety-Three - Announcing Her Marriage To Her Gang
The response of their family overwhelmed Christian and Skylar. Even Erica was over the moon with happiness to know that Skylar was also pregnant. “I wish you too have twins like me.” “I wish the same too,” said Skylar unable to tell her she wanted both: a boy and a girl. “So I’ll have to plan two baby showers later,” said Lillian excitedly.“You can club it together. It’ll be easier,” suggested Erica. “Yes, we can plan it in your seventh month. It’ll be Skye's sixth.” They all agreed to the idea. They could plan the date and venue later at everyone’s convenience. Vivienne and Blade were the most excited at the prospect of having baby cousins. After spending three days with their family, they left for Miami Beach, where Hayley and Ashton had planned a beach wedding. Ashton had inherited a beach-facing mansion there from his former mentor and employer, Simon Baylor. In fact, Simon Baylor left the entire Baylor Group to Ashton after his death. They were happy for him since he deser

The next few weeks sailed by amidst fun, work, and lots of special heated moments between them. Christian planned a date every weekend and each of them was unique in their own way. Skylar was now quite comfortable around his group of reckless friends who frequented their home. Skylar didn’t mind, since her friends were the same. Christian’s therapy was going well. He had improved a lot in the past few weeks. The limp was almost gone and he could run unlike earlier. With the strength back in his legs, Christian was unstoppable. He trained with renewed energy now. At work, Skylar made excellent progress, making her mentor Mr. Fairbanks proud of her achievements. He was confident she could take over from him completely in three months. They kept in touch with their family back in Cleveland and New York. Erica was doing fine and had joined work. Expecting twin boys, they were excitedly on the lookout for names. Skylar’s grandparents were still staying with them in New York. Caleb and L

“When did you get all this done?” asked Skylar, noticing the mouth-watering fare served before them. With the romantic lighting and the soothing decor, the place looked more magical than ever before. “This time I sought Joanna’s help. I would have liked to do everything myself, but didn’t get time.” His eyes twinkled, catching the rays of the lights hanging around them. They lured her into their magical depths, promising her a night of passion soon to follow. “Still it blew my mind away! I must say Joanna did a wonderful job!” “Yes, she’s quite a pro at it!” There was an understated excitement in the air as they enjoyed a quiet moment with one another. “Yes, we can make use of her talent more!” Christian chuckled, feeding her a piece of the roasted chicken Katherine had made for them. “Even Katherine has done a wonderful job. So are we going to Escapades tomorrow?” Skylar didn’t want to go to the club. She was apprehensive about meeting the rest of his reckless friends. She prefe
Tempting The Spitfire (Temptation Series Book 6) Chapter Ninety - Marital Bliss
Skylar gaped at him for a moment, absorbing the bombshell he had just dropped. Then a slow smile spread across her face as realization dawned on her. With almost all her friends pregnant, she felt left out whenever they discussed, unable to contribute to their pregnancy woes. Now she could! She just hoped she got pregnant! “Really? I want to get pregnant with your baby!” she gasped, making Christian’s jaws drop with surprise. He hadn’t expected her to be so eager to embrace motherhood since he wasn’t eager to embrace fatherhood so early. He wanted to enjoy his married life for at least two years before planning to have children. “I wanted children too, but not so early.” He sighed, since it was actually God’s will. They had no say in the matter. “If it has to happen early, it will. It’s destiny, Christian.” “Yes, you’re right. It’s no use pondering over it. Come closer baby!” He grinned at her, pulling her closer, right into his lap. The water calmed them, invigorated their minds,
Tempting The Spitfire (Temptation Series Book 6) Chapter Eighty-Nine - In The Heat Of The Moment
With a savage sense of possession, Christian captured her lips, shoving his tongue into her mouth. The intensity of the kiss took her by surprise and she moaned with pleasure. He captured her feminine moans of bliss, swirling his tongue and devouring her hungrily. It was more of a kiss to vent out the pent-up hunger he had kept buried for so long. After getting a taste of her, he had been addicted to her sweetness, but Erica’s health prevented them from enjoying the trip. She kissed him back, making him groan as a shock of pleasure spiraled through his body. He wanted more now! His fingertips skimmed along her throat, trailing down to the buttons of her top. In a split second, he undid them and eased the top off her body. Next went the rest of her clothes. Skylar lifted her eyes to meet his glittering, lust-filled gaze. He gently cupped her breasts, feeling the voluptuous mounds that overflowed in his hands. Pressing his thumb over a taut peak, he sucked the other into his mouth. H

Christian was sitting in the reception room waiting for her when she walked into the house. “So, how did the wedding go? Did Alexander whisk Eva away with him?”“Yes, he did. There was war, but no bloodshed thankfully! I’ll get myself a drink. It was too much for a day!” She got a bottle of water and emptied its contents. Then she explained everything that happened to Christian. However, her relief was short-lived. Erica was again critical, and they re-admitted her in the middle of the night. “You can go back and rest, Skylar. I’m here,” said Christian, as they sat outside the Emergency Unit. “No, I can’t leave you alone here.” She knew his condition. It wasn’t very good either. He needed more rest than she did.For the next two days, they took turns at the hospital. Skylar didn’t get time to catch up with her friends anymore. They eagerly waited for Sebastian’s return. After five days, they brought Erica home. She was pregnant with twins and her condition was critical with both f
Tempting The Spitfire (Temptation Series Book 6) Chapter Eighty-Seven - A Melodramatic Wedding
They reached Bellevue Hospital after an hour. Skylar immediately inquired after Eva, but it was strange she had taken a long leave for almost a fortnight. Was it because of her wedding to Alexander? “She is pregnant and her wedding is coming up!” the nurse informed her. Skylar was shocked to hear the news. She knew about her wedding, but not about her pregnancy. The last time she connected with Alyssa, she only found out about her upcoming wedding. Even Hayley cribbed about her own love life. So who was Eva marrying? How was it she didn’t know? Did Eva find her happiness at last with Alexander Van Every? “Let’s go to see Erica,” said Christian, leading her away from the neonatal department. They went to the emergency department and met Sebastian in the lobby. “I was waiting for you,” said a haggard-looking Sebastian. “How is she now?” asked Skylar. “She’s still on drips.” “How did her health deteriorate so much?” asked Christian worriedly. “She was exceptionally nauseous.
