༺RAYNE༻ My breath slows and my thoughts quiet as I remain glued in Liam's strong arms, wrapped tightly and warm around me. With my head still nestled on his chest, I hear and feel his heartbeat steadily. It's a subtle, soothing rhythm against my ear. Though Liam is hard to understand at times, I can't hold myself back from being touched by his fierce protectiveness. Knowing that he's willing to go to such lengths for my safety is ever so comforting. The feeling is evergreen. My own heart rate synchronizes with his, like our hearts are beating in unison. The living room becomes utterly quiet now and a sense of calm washes over me. All I hear is Liam's heartbeat, his breathing and the quiet rustle of his shirt as he shifts slightly. He caresses my hair, his fingers tangling in the strands, his chest rising and falling as he breathes. His other hand strokes my back but then he stops as though he's suddenly remembered something. His hands freeze in place and his body tenses. “What's
The Billionaire Owns Me Now Chapter 66: Unlikely Heroine
༺RAYNE༻ Sabrina scrambles out of her seat and quickly goes to Lucas, placing one hand on his shoulder and the other hand on his chest, trying to comfort him. At the same time, Liam supports Lucas’ back with his hand, wrapping his arm around him gently. “Grandfather!” Liam yells again, his hands frantic, his voice tainted with panic. I get up as well, my mouth falling open. I feel bad for the old man as I watch him still struggling to breathe, his face turning a scary shade of purple. “Get the doctor!” Sabrina screams painfully at a maid, “Quickly, he’s not breathing, oh God, hurry!” The maid takes a step back, her hands fluttering up to her mouth as if to stifle a scream, her eyes fixed on Lucas’ purple face. It’s Liam’s turn to shout at her, “What the fuck are you still standing there for, move! Get the doctor, now!” Her eyes dart around the room and she starts running towards the door. She knocks over a chair in her haste, causing a loud clatter to echo in the dining room. S
The Billionaire Owns Me Now Chapter 67: A Trip Down Memory Lane
༺RAYNE༻ The view from the balcony is breathtakingly expansive unlike ours which is more intimate and secluded. Ours is beautiful nonetheless. I get to see the sunset over the gardens whenever I'm relaxing on the chaise lounge there, but here I see the entire city skyline stretching out before me. I'm sitting on a gold-coloured luxurious lounge chair in the balcony all alone. Liam suggested we spent the night here and I couldn't complain. He was on the phone and the conversation seemed to go on forever so I slipped out here for some fresh air. The chilly air seeps into my skin and I shudder, feeling goosebumps on my body. I rub my arms and snuggle up in the chair, my eyes glued to the glittering city lights. “I see you found my favourite spot,” Liam's voice jolts me a little. I turn to see him stepping into the balcony. His eyes crinkle at the corners as he gazes at the view. He settles in a chair beside me, his elbow softly brushing my arm and then bores his eyes into mine. “Thi
The Billionaire Owns Me Now Chapter 68: Freezing Outside, Burning Inside
༺RAYNE༻ “You're so cold,” Liam soughs after pulling away from me. I'm breathless from our intense kiss. Our lips have been glued together and our tongues have been rolling with each other for quite a long time now. My head is spinning and my breathing is shallow yet I want to taste him again. “Why'd you stop?” I whine and put my hands on his neck, tugging his body back to mine. His lips graze my trembling ones before he pulls back again. “We really need to get you inside. You're freezing.” “Fine, but I want you to warm me up,” I whisper against his lips, digging my nails in his hair. “Take me inside and fuck the chill off me.” God, I sound like a desperate nymph! But do I care? No, not at all. I want this man so badly right now like a person on fire wants water, like a drowning person wants air. He hasn't touched me since we came back from Paris. It's been two weeks. Two weeks of torture, with him so close yet so far away. I'm so freaking turned on now. I might be freezing on
The Billionaire Owns Me Now Chapter 69: Long And Hard Night
༺RAYNE༻ “What about the way you look at me, Liam?” I gulp and search for the right words to carry on. “The way you're looking at me now like I'm the only one that matters and how you stared at me a while back when you called me your wife... It's like you're hooked on me now, as if you can't get enough of me like you said. And that's a lot different from how you used to look at me.” He can't keep warning me not to fall for him when in fact, he's acting like he's head over heels in love with me. “This is exactly why I had to keep you at arm's length. You mistake my duties for love, Rayne. You think I'm invested in you but I'm just doing my job. I'm protecting you, providing for you, and yes, satisfying your needs as well as mine. But that's all part of the arrangement, not some romantic feeling.” Liam can be such a party pooper! One minute he's kissing me like he means it and the next he's pushing me away. He's telling me not to fall for him, but his actions say otherwise. But of
The Billionaire Owns Me Now Chapter 70: Morning Glory
༺RAYNE༻ One Week Later... Waking up naked in Liam's arms is such an incredible feeling. It's surreal, like I'm dreaming. But the way his arms curve around my body, his fingers grazing my breasts and the soft beating of his heart against my ear tell me that it's real. I smile and gaze at his face. He's still asleep, his tousled hair falling over his forehead, giving him a perfectly imperfect charm. His chest rises and falls with each slow breath. I place my forefinger on his forehead and trace light patterns down to his nose and then to his lips, tracing the soft outline of his mouth. Liam suddenly stirs awake, his eyelids flutter open and his lips part slightly, letting out a sleepy, sensual sigh. Immediately, I take my hand off him and rest my head on the bed, shutting my eyes. I let out a soft, fake snore, trying to convince him I'm still asleep, hoping he won't notice I was just touching him. Liam gets up a little and drops his head to my ear. “I know you're awake, Rayne. And
The Billionaire Owns Me Now Chapter 71: Bored Mrs Everhart
༺RAYNE༻Liam comes out of the bathroom stark naked and starts towelling off. Afterwards, he begins to get ready for work. I stare at him longingly, slightly sad that I won't be seeing him until tonight.Does he have to go? I get so bored all alone in this huge mansion and it makes me think about him even more and how much I wish he was here with me. I feel empty and restless whenever I see him walk out the door.I don't know when I started to feel this way. I wonder if he ever feels like that too when he's at work, far away from me.Now wearing a pair of black Calvin Klein briefs, Liam strides to his walk-in closet. The muscles in his broad back ripple as he moves, making my heart flutter. Despite my best efforts, my heart is doing somersaults in my chest, refusing to listen to reason. I'm falling for Liam and it scares me. I don't know how to handle these feelings, especially when I'm supposed to be keeping this all casual.I watch Liam take out a grey suit and a black one, glancing
The Billionaire Owns Me Now Chapter 72: Heavily Guarded
༺RAYNE༻ Before Liam gets back from work, I prepare him a nice dinner, his favourite meals—jellied eels, a beef and ale pie and a side of mashed potatoes with a drizzle of gravy. And for dessert, a warm apple pie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. As soon as I finish setting the table, I hear the sound of the helicopter landing on the private helipad outside. My heart skips a beat and does a little flip. He's home. Finally! I take a deep breath, smoothing out my dress and head to the entrance hall to greet him. I try not to let my excitement get the better of me so I put on a chill face in order to downplay it. But inside I'm eager to see him. “Welcome home,” I say the moment he enters the house. The nonchalance in my voice is so evident Liam gives me a once-over and stops in front of me. “Thank you.” We don't say anything else to each other before he goes to the bedroom to freshen up. Jonathan walks in with the lunchbox that I had packed for Liam's lunch. I take it from him and
