The Billionaire's Promise Chapter 19: Surprise Visit
"Looking good Brooks!" Sloane purred.Luca turned from his desk in surprise to find Sloane posing in his doorway. She smiled at him saucily as she sauntered into the room. She glanced around the room briefly as she made her way closer to Luca.Luca glanced around the room too and wondered what it looked like to her. There were still boxes piled up in a few corners of the room, some of them containing furniture that Luca had opted to put together himself. Aside from the boxes, the office looked like it was occupied, which was a good start."The office is really coming together," Sloane carried on as she reached him and offered him a brief hug."Sloane, what are you doing here?" Luca asked in confusion as he watched her shrug off her trench coat. His eyes widened slightly as he took in her skintight, red, mini-dress. Her cleavage was on full display and the dress was more suited to a club or maybe a date. Sloane smirked to herself at Luca's expression and made herself comfortable on

"Knock knock!" Sloane called out as she popped her head around the door to Kit's office.Kit looked up with a smile and waved Sloane in. "Come in! It's great to see you."Sloane beamed at Kit warmly and set the two coffees she was holding on the desk. The two women gave each other a brief hug before taking their seats."Thank you for the coffee!" Kit said with a warm smile before taking an appreciative sip. "How have you been? It's been a few weeks since we saw each other.""I should be asking you that," Sloane replied with a coy smile as she took a dainty sip of her own coffee.Kit groaned and put her cup down before giving Sloane a rueful smile. "You saw the gossip about that disastrous dinner too, huh?""I'm afraid so," Sloane said with a sympathetic smile. "That's why I made an appointment with you today, I had to see if you were okay after all of that."Kit gave Sloane a grateful smile. "That's very kind of you. I'm okay, just ready for people to stop bringing it up."Sloa

"Do you like it?" Birdy asked from behind Kit as she examined herself in her closet mirror. The dress she was modeling wasn't in her typical style but Birdy had convinced her to give it a try - a fun, little beaded number.Kit turned around and sighed with a frown. "I'm sorry Birdy, I'm just somewhere else today. Maybe we should postpone - I'm just browsing after all."Birdy placed a supportive hand on Kit's elbow and guided her to the nearest seat. "You do seem rather distracted. Do you want to talk about it?"Kit looked at Birdy with uncertainty but nodded hesitantly. She didn't know if she could trust Birdy with her personal feelings but she needed to talk to someone before her head exploded.The two women sat down on the settee in Kit's closet and Kit took a few minutes to collect her thoughts. She looked at Birdy and took a deep breath, preparing herself to get vulnerable with someone she didn't know well."Okay," Kit started, wondering how much she could tell Birdy without s
The Billionaire's Promise Chapter 22: Time For A Vacation
"Are you ever going to answer that?" Gemma asked in an exasperated tone, her gaze fixed on her laptop screen. The sound of Kit's phone constantly buzzing against her desk was driving her crazy. The two women had been holed up in Kit's office, working for a few hours and it had been buzzing the entire time.Kit shook her head distractedly, her head still buried in the file on her desk. "No, it's probably Luca."Gemma's eyes immediately snapped to Kit, she lowered her laptop lid slightly and swung her legs off the couch and onto the floor. "Are we ignoring Luca?"Kit glanced at Gemma briefly before returning her eyes to her work. "Not ignoring him, I just don't have the time to talk right now."Gemma snapped her laptop shut and walked over to Kit's desk. Her long ponytail swinging with her haste. "Well, if you answer him, he'll probably stop calling. That's how that works."Kit hummed absently mindedly and otherwise ignored Gemma until her hand appeared in her peripheral vision, sna

"Okay! Listen up ladies, I left my man at home to come and be with you. There will be no moping on this trip," Gemma stated firmly as she looked the other three women in the eyes, one at a time.She was standing in front of the small party on a yacht while the rest of them were sitting on the cushioning in the front, enjoying their drinks. It was wonderfully hot and humid as they sailed along, enjoying the salty sea air. Kit had decided to invite two of her other friends to Gemma's impromptu Miami trip - Veronica and Alexandra. She's been close with them since college and kept in touch as they started their own businesses.Per Gemma's instructions, all the women were in fairly skimpy bikinis and ready to party. Kit had swapped out her braids for her collection of wigs; today, her hair was bone straight and brushing the top of her butt."B*tch please!" Alex laughed in amusement, causing Gemma to smile and wink at her playfully."That was clearly directed at me. So, f*ck you for that
The Billionaire's Promise Chapter 24: More Than Contractual Obligations
"You've been avoiding me," Luca said as he made his way to one of the armchairs in the couch set. He sat down facing Kit and looked at her expectantly."Yeah, I have been avoiding you," Kit admitted with a nervous shrug. "I'm sorry."Luca waited a moment before speaking again softly. "Do I get to know why you've been avoiding me? I thought we were getting along, or even more than that."Kit sighed and sat across from Luca while fidgeting with the hem of her cover-up. "You're not actually my boyfriend, I don't think I owe you an explanation outside of my contractual obligations."Luca leaned forward angrily. "Don't start with that 'contractual obligations' crap. We're way past that and you know it. Cut the shit."Kit's nostrils flared in annoyance. "Don't get demanding with me. No matter what you think we have, I don't owe you anything."Luca laughed harshly and sunk back into his chair. "Unbelievable. You're worried that I'm the player but this is how you're acting?""You are th

Luca watched lazily from his position, lying reclined on the bed with a drink in hand, as Kit ran around and got ready for her evening. The valet had brought him a drink while she was showering after their - activities. His eyes followed her body appreciatively as she moved around the room.Kit laughed and turned around from the mirror as she fiddled with her earrings. "Stop staring! Your eyes are drilling holes into me."Luca smiled mischievously and ran his eyes down her body slowly before focusing on her eyes again. "I can't help it, you look different with that long, straight hair - I really like it."Kit rolled her eyes with a smile on her face, pleased that he'd complimented her. "Thank you. I'm definitely a bit of a problem when I bust the 24-inch out."Luca looked at her with a cute confused look on his face. Kit walked over to him and dropped a soft kiss on his lips. "You're so cute when you're lost. The 24-inch is the wig you just complimented."Luca's face cleared up in
