The Billionaire’s Escape Bride Chapter 19
KatarinaJerome stared at me with a hint of shock in his eyes. He hadn't expected such a request from me, and I had no idea I could make such a request either. "Are you sure?" He asked for clarification purposes, and I nodded shyly. Before I had the chance to breathe, Jerome's lips crashed into mine.Even though I had expected it, the kiss had been unexpected. There was eagerness in his eyes, but it was gentle, as if he was testing the waters. I closed my eyes, savoring the warmth and the softness of his lips against mine. Time seemed to pause, and the feel of his tongue in my mouth had my body quaking in manners I could not explain. After what felt like both an eternity and just a fleeting second, he pulled away, his eyes searching mine for any sign of regret or hesitation. I could feel the heat rising to my cheeks as I struggled to find the right words."I..I...thank you." I stammered before turning away in embarrassment. I hadn't expected it to be this good, I could still feel th

KylanI returned to the hotel I was staying in thirty minutes after departing from Lisa's place. My plan was moving smoothly, and things were going a lot better than I had planned. I could tell she had missed me, she was falling slowly, and that was exactly what I wanted. I would crush her once I was certain that her heart belonged to me. But for now, it was crucial for me to take things slowly, the last thing I wanted was for her to grow suspicious of me and decide to pull away. "Room service is here." A feminine voice announced, and I quickly unlocked the door to let her in. "So how are we going to do this—""Don't talk, just take off your clothes and wait for me." I interjected before locking the door behind me. Playing with Lisa had gotten me more excited than I had anticipated. I needed to relieve myself quickly, else I would end up with blue balls the next day. The lady obeyed without words. Her body was perfect, silky smooth skin with moderately sized breasts. However, I f

Kylan My night was brief, and morning came faster than I had anticipated. I didn't have much to do besides eating breakfast and staring at the television before me. I had left Cole and my assistant in charge before I left, and I was confident that the two of them could handle things in my absence.After spending a whole hour watching a TV series, I finally got bored enough to leave the hotel. I usually didn't like bothering Lisa during the early hours of the day, but it felt as though I would lose myself if I didn't speak to someone I knew. And unfortunately, she was the only person I was familiar with around these parts. I knew she worked at a breakfast cafe during the early hours of the day, and I wasted no time in showing up to the said cafe. I needed it to feel like a coincidence, so I had skipped having breakfast at the hotel. With a held up head, I walked into the restaurant and immediately caught a glimpse of Lisa while she was serving another customer. She had a bright smil

KatarinaThe last thing I expected was for Jerome to sit and wait for me while I worked. We had taken an hour to tour around the city, and had spent the remaining time in a coffee shop, chatting and learning more about each other. As I had expected, Jerome was a businessman, a successful man at that. I had wanted to ask him if he knew about Kylan Anderson, but decided against it. There was no need to bring up my past now, I was doing my best to run away from it, so bringing it up would do me more harm than good."Are you sure you can wait, my shift doesn't end until four." I reminded Jerome for the umpteenth time, but he didn't seem like he was going to change his mind anytime soon. "I said not to worry, didn't I? I'm off work today, I really have nothing better to do other than this. So don't worry about me, just focus on doing your work, and I'll sit here and wait for you." He replied with a bright smile. It was easy for him to say, but concentrating on work while he was sitting

KylanLisa remained wrapped in my arms, however the moment was taken away when my phone began ringing. I wasn't expecting any calls tonight, but Cole always knew how to disturb me, especially during good moments. At first, I wanted to ignore him, but decided against it. His voice was tense, and every word he spoke was accompanied by a sense of urgency, one that I couldn't ignore. The office was supposed to be closed at this time. It was already a few hours to midnight, but from what Cole said so far, it seemed he was still at the office.From his description, it seemed like we had been robbed, but I really couldn't be sure. Cole hadn't mentioned anything yet, all he said was there were signs of breaking and entering, and Cole wouldn't be the type to joke about something this serious.Gently, I pulled away from our warm embrace, "I have to go," I said, regret lacing my words. "It's an emergency at the office.""What happened, what's going on?" Lisa asked, her eyes filled with concern

Kylan I thought that after the events of last night that I would loathe Lisa the moment I laid eyes on her. My company's success was possibly hanging in the balance, my life was potentially at the verge of ruin, and it was all because she had refused to marry me. However, standing before her, I felt no hatred. If anything, seeing her smile calmed me more than I had expected. Her smile was energetic and healing, and each time life came to those exhausted eyes of hers, I felt the need to kiss and bed her until she could walk no more."What's going on with you today? You don't look so well, is everything okay?" Lisa asked the moment she realized I was spacing out, and wasn't smiling like I always did on a regular basis. I couldn't tell her about what had happened, there was absolutely no need for her to know about it, she couldn't help in any way after all.Mustering up a smile, I decided to go with the most cliche lie I could think up on the spot. "I had a hectic night, work took mos

KatarinaI wanted to chase after Jerome, but I decided against that. I could tell something was bothering him, and it wasn't just work.I couldn't really tell what it was, and only then did I realize that I have not really been involved in Jerome's life as much as I thought. The only thing I knew about him at the moment was his name and job, I had no idea how he worked and the other things. He was basically still a mystery to me, and I had no idea how to feel about that. Unlike me Jerome knew almost everything about me. The only thing he didn't know was my real name, and the fact that I was on the run from kylan Anderson. Aside from that, I was basically an open book to him. I rose from where I sat, my appetite already lost. I wanted to know more about him, I wanted to be more involved in his life. If what we had was real, then it was an absolute necessity. I called for the waiter, and settled the bill before leaving the cafe. I was no longer in the mood for anything, the only thin

Kylan The first person I met at the door of my office was Christopher, and like always I could tell he was up to no good. "What are you doing here?" I inquired as I pushed past him and entered my office. I could tell he had arrived minutes ago, and without doubt, he had clearly come to see me. "I heard your company got robbed, came to share my sympathies with you." Christopher replied before settling down on the couch without my permission. He was definitely bold for someone who knew I didn't like him very much. He was pushing his luck consistently, and one of these days I planned on breaking his jaw. "Your sympathy isn't needed here, so you're free to leave." I answered with my finger pointed towards the door. However, Christopher didn't budge, even anything he made himself more comfortable on the leather couch, a maniacal smile playing at the end of his lips. "Let's not get things confused here, Kylan. You may be in charge of this company, but you don't own it, so stop trying t

Katarina "I'm sorry about everything..." Kylan apologized the moment we got home. There were tears in his eyes, and he didn't fight them back. "I lost touch with reality, I was more focused on work than our relationship, I'm so sorry—" He hadn't finished when I threw my arms around him in a warm embrace, my own tears already flowing without end. I had no idea how to repay him at this point, and I genuinely couldn't think of being mad at him anymore. He had saved me for the thousandth time. "T..thank you so much.." I cried while sniffing back tears. I couldn't even be mad at him for everything, not now, not after what had just happened. If he hadn't shown up when he did, there was no telling what would have happened to me. My own parents had betrayed me, I had been a fool for thinking that they would change, and I had been greatly disappointed. All they wanted was money, and to them I was nothing but a means of getting that money. I didn't matter to them as long as money wasn'

Kylan While my men surrounded the building and handled Diana's henchmen, I went in to search for Katarina. It took a while, slinking through the chaos and searching from room to another. However, after ten long minutes, I finally found her and called out the second I recognized her petite figure. "Kylan!" She cried, jumping up from the couch to throw herself into my arms. Fresh sobs shook her slight frame as she clung tightly to me, but I could tell that these were tears of happiness. "Get away from him, you bitch," Diana snarled and made to take a step forward, only to find herself staring down the barrel of the gun I had taken from one of my guards earlier. "If you take a single step from that spot Diana, I swear to God I will paint this room red with your blood." She froze there, her body stiff as a board and her eyes wide with shock at the sheer vitriol in my voice. That was when I saw the terror slowly creeping into her expression. Her arms sagged helplessly at her sid

Kylan David paused in the middle of his words and stared at me with eyes full of reservations and curiosity. Even though it was dark in the room, I could practically see the gears turning in his mind behind those blue eyes of his. The amount I was offering was not something he was not used to receiving for a job, but the only jobs that involved that kind of money were the ones that carried a very substantial amount of risks. Eventually he sighed and waved for me to follow behind him. The eccentric man made his way through the dark house with the ease of someone who knew every inch of this place very well. I simply followed right behind him to avoid any accidents until we reached the basement where the hub of his activities was located. He sat down on his chair and leveled me with a dead serious glare. "You know, in all the time I've known you, I've always thought of you as some insanely dangerous individual, someone incapable of losing their cool, who is somehow able to kee
The Billionaire’s Escape Bride Chapter 83
Kylan My first thought was to return back to the location I had just come from. In Katarina's letter, she had mentioned that she was going back to her parents, to wait for me until I would come for her. But I had met Ann just a while ago, and the woman basically swore to me that she had no idea where her daughter was. She did not even give any indication of having seen Katarina recently. As everything was simply not adding up, I decided to follow my thoughts and drove back all the way to the house. The moment I turned into the street, I realized that the blue car that had been parked in front of the house when I had been there previously, was now missing. I rushed out of my own car and raced up to the house. Yelling out their names, I banged my fist on the wooden door several times. As soon as I realized that I was not going to get an answer, I drew back a bit and slammed the bottom of my foot on the door, right near the handle. The lock mechanism shattered at the well placed

Kylan Even though I could understand the reason why Katarina would run away from me again, I failed to accept any of the things Diana had said. Katarina's love had been real, and so were my feelings for her. I just could not accept that it was all a lie. I knew I had lost her once before, back when I had been too short-sighted to see past my own needs and wants. But she helped me move past that, and I found myself finally able to truly love someone. That was why I knew with certainty that she would not abandon me so recklessly, even though I had failed to give her the attention she wanted. As I made up my mind and left my room to enter the hallway, I glanced down at the closed door to the guestroom that was just at the end of the passage. Diana was still inside, and I could hear the sound of the shower which meant she would not be out anytime soon. Besides, I was fairly certain that she would not be happy with me putting myself through so much for someone that left me on her

Katarina Mama immediately broke down in tears at the sight of me, and now I felt bad for not coming to visit or reaching out to them sooner. She seemed genuinely concerned for me, and it was clear that the mere sight of me had driven her to tears. Was I the bad one for not calling them, for running away without saying anything? It definitely felt like it, but I managed to push those thoughts away. "Is it really you? Is this you, Kat?" My mother questioned as she reached for my face, slowly caressing and feeling it with her feeble hands. "It's me, mother. There's no need to be afraid, I'm not a ghost." I replied, before gently pushing her hand away from my face. It definitely felt good to see her after all this while. We had our differences, but she was still my mother, and there was nothing I could do to change that. "Why did you leave? Why did you run away, I had been so worried." She cried as she gently allowed me into the house. Memories of my childhood and all the time

Kylan Diana answered the call on the second ring, and I gave her a short explanation of the situation. The more I tried to say, the more it seemed as if my heart was about to shatter within my chest. I ended up leaving the call halfway when my voice began to waver, my grief pushing me to tears that I had not shed in as long as I remember. I sat there, as lifeless as a stone statue, with a multitude of thoughts flashing through my mind. No matter how I looked at the situation, I could only see the many ways I had fallen short of the things I should have done. But there were all the things I had failed at. Everything had been going so well before now, so how could I have made such a terrible oversight? Had my determination to make everything right caused me to be blind to what had been right in front of me? I honestly had no idea how long it took Diana to arrive. I was so out of it that I barely even heard the front door open and close. She called out my name twice, but I had n

KylanAt some point, I was starting to wonder if these papers were somehow multiplying when I wasn't looking. I had already long lost count of the number of hours I had spent behind this desk, working my mind and body to their limits in an effort to get through the files on my desk. It was probably late by now, and I had lost track of time. But yet, as I looked at the stacks across the black wooden surface, it was as if I had yet to make a single dent. I looked down at the document right in front of me, a complex ledger that was detailing a pending transaction of a high enough level of importance that it required the signature of the highest power in the company. I quickly read through it, putting my advanced processing skills obtained through hundreds of hours of effort and experience. It did not take me long to go through the entire document, finding it suitable before I moved to sign at the right places. Just before I could pick up the next document, my phone lit up with

Katarina Once again I was left alone at home. I had listened and heard when Kylan left the house, and shortly after Diana's car drove out of the premises. I was left alone once more, and had completely lost appetite for the food before me. It was becoming exhausting sitting around all day and doing nothing. And thanks to Kylan always being out every time, I hadn't even had the opportunity to discuss my decision to start working. I got out of my room to return the food back to the kitchen. The smell had begun to make me feel nauseous, and I didn't want that anymore. Bored, I toured the house, moving from room to room and checking out anything that caught my attention. However, it was not enough. The clock was ticking especially slow today, and it was slowly driving me insane. Left with no other choice, I dressed up and left the house for the first time in a while. I needed it, being held up in one place was definitely not good for my physical and mental health. I was
