The Untamed Billionaire One Hundred and Six
Asher’s POVI stared at him for what seemed like an eternity, then I decided to pretend I heard him just to hear how he intended on doing that, so I said. “Fine, let's hear your genius idea.”Gary straightened in his seat, his smirk slipping and turning serious. “Remember the Henderson account?” he asked me and I clapped my hands together mentally.Of course, that was what this was about. I should have known he wouldn’t be offering friendship if there wasn’t something behind the offer. He had seen an opportunity and he had seized it, using the fact that I had just hit him not long ago, and the fact that my wife worked for him as a chance.“Yes, Gary. What about the Henderson account?” I asked, feigning ignorance. Ignorance they say was bliss even though I knew it was for a short while in this case. I was sure Gary would explain what he meant, let me see where he was going.“Good! Remember my proposal on working on the account together? How I said we should…”I interrupted him, hating

May’s POV“Are you serious?” Emily asked and I nodded. Well, I understood that she was surprised, but she couldn’t be as surprised about this as I was.I was telling her about what Gary told me to do, and she was looking at me with a surprised look on her face, but then, the look soon changed from being fazed to being amused, and she was smiling.“What’s so funny?” I asked, a small frown marring my face.“The fact that it’s something you’ve been avoiding, but you can’t avoid anymore,” she said, lifting her shoulder in a shrug.The fact that she was laughing at me right now showed how worked up I was about this whole “work with Asher” thing, and she was supposed to be laughing with me on this, or I was. Either way, this shouldn’t bother me at all, I should see it as more opportunity to make him sweat.But really, he was the one that would in reality. I’ve always been so cautious of my dealings with him because it could at any point, turn so ugly, in a very unplanned manner.“But it’s n

Asher’s POVStaring at the woman that walked to me, I gave her a cold look, asking with my eyes without saying a word, what she wanted. I wasn’t interested, I was just here to talk to Brent, because he was already here when I called him.The bar downtown was always packed at this time of the evening, but I didn’t expect it to be this full.For some reason, it was, and half the bar were drinking.“What’s going on?” I asked as I looked at her pressed against my shoulder. I would have nudged her off, but I didn’t want to be disrespectful, so I just thought to act civilized instead.“I just like your eyes,” she said, smiling, and I wanted to shove her. I glanced at Brent and Brent gave me the “don’t do anything, I’ll handle it” look.“Huh, if you would be interested in looking at my eyes, maybe that would be better, because if you can’t see, the man is wearing a ring, which mean he’s married.” Brent said.I frowned down at my own finger to see it was bare and before I could frown at Brent

Asher’s POVI was settled into the high-backed leather chair in my office, the cityscape sprawling beyond the panoramic window behind me. Normally, I would be up and in front of the window, looking down at the city before me and probably thinking about things, but I had a meeting, so here I was.I glanced at the array of screens on my desk, the largest of which displayed the faces of my clients. I leaned into the microphone, trying to sound focused and present despite the array of distractions that come with running a company.I would rather be someplace else though, or even be working on the files I had my secretary bring to me."So, as I was saying," I began, directing my attention to the screen, "the projections for next quarter are looking strong, and we're on track to exceed the targets we set last month. I'm confident that with the new marketing strategy in place, we'll see a significant return on investment." I said, looking over at my door before concentrating back on the scre

Asher’s POVStaring at May, the woman I had managed to push away through my own foolishness, was like looking at a life I had almost let slip through my fingers. We were technically still married, but only because I hadn't found the courage… or perhaps the right moment… to sign the divorce papers.Thank God I didn’t, because now, I was able to claim that we were still married. Although, her presence in my office was both a reminder of my failures and the past we shared together I wasn't sure how to steer."What do I owe the pleasure of this unexpected visit?" I asked, trying to keep my voice steady.May sighed, the weight of the moment pressing down on her. "I'm here because for some reason, Gary told me I had to work with you on the Henderson project. I'll be working closely with you for some time," she explained, her tone suggesting that this arrangement was less than ideal for her.I feigned surprise, even though I was aware of this, actually, it was something I had planned with Ga

May’s POVI couldn’t believe I would come back to this house anymore, at least, not to come work. Asher and I had been working on his home office since I arrived about a couple of hours ago, and he had been the perfect gentleman since then.We were supposed to get together at his office together to iron out some of the work, but he had called and insisted I had to come to the house, because he couldn’t make it to the office.When I arrived, he had been waiting out front for me with a huge smile on his face. The cold Asher that I knew now seemed to be a distant memory, replaced with the warm one, the one that had feelings that I was now seeing nowadays.I sighed and rubbed my neck as I was bent over the files on the desk Asher and I had been sharing. “Are you all right?” I heard Asher’s voice and I snapped my head up to look at him.Slightly, I nodded, but said nothing after that.“You look like you’re in pain. Maybe your neck is killing you.” He said and I shrugged.“Do you want a mas

May’s POVI glanced at my phone as it buzzed on the dresser, half expecting another message from Asher. As I picked it up, I wasn't surprised to see his name flash on the screen, signaling another message asking me to come to his house for our meet-up.It was the third time he had done this; the first had ended in a tense conversation about our divorce, and after I had flatly refused the second invitation, I was even more hesitant now.What was his problem by the way? And why did he keep changing the venue of our meeting as if the work we were to do wasn’t important, or it was something she could play with.I looked down at my phone again to see if I should leave it unread or not, and I was still deciding that when another message appeared.“This is the butler, I'm using Mr. Campbell’s phone. He said you had to come home because he was feeling weak, but I've been trying to force him to go to the hospital, and he's refusing. He's been running a temperature since."I read it out loud, w

Asher’s POVAs I sat behind the mahogany desk that anchored my office, the last person I expected to waltz through the door was Gary. This man was just always showing up where he was not wanted.Although, my secretary had called to let me know he was coming, but still…I eyed him warily, my guard up, wondering what he was doing here again this time. “What do you want, Gary,” I said, my voice sounding bored.“I came here to talk, and it’s important,” he said, shrugging.What the hell? Was he here to talk about what he and I had agreed to do, and back out? Was he here to say he couldn’t put May on the account anymore, because if he thought for once that I wouldn’t pull him out entirely, then he had another thing going.I was not going to let him do that without a fight. He had probably thought that there was nothing I could do about him being on the account now."Relax, Asher," Gary said with that sly grin of his, casually taking a seat opposite me. "I'm not here to stir up trouble. In

The Untamed Billionaire One Hundred and Forty Two
May’s POVAs soon as I opened the door of my room later that evening after Ellen left to go downstairs to get an apple before going to bed, I saw Asher standing there.“I can’t give you any more time, May.” That was the first thing he said to me as I looked at him. What the hell was he talking about?I frowned, biting my bottom lip. “Stop doing that, May. If you seriously don’t want me to ravish you right now, stop doing that.” He said.I was utterly confused, not sure I knew what he was referring to. I just frowned and looked at him. “What are you talking about?” I asked after a few more seconds of silenced from him. I had been expecting him to clarify without me having to ask, but he just stared at me.“Biting your lip, that’s what.” He said casually.“Oh! I see. Sorry, I’m not doing it on purpose.” I said and he nodded.“Where are you going to?” He asked me.“I’m going to the kitchen.” I said.“That’s good. Maybe we can talk there.” He said.I shook my head. “Or maybe we can talk h
The Untamed Billionaire One Hundred and Forty One
Asher’s POVI stood by the kitchen door with my bag in my hand, listening to what they were saying; my mother and my wife.As soon as I got back from the office, my butler had told me my mother was around and that she was in the kitchen with May, and now I was here to meet them.But then I got here and I heard May said she was leaving. I closed my eyes and gritted my teeth. I even clenched my hands in fists, it was all I could do to not storm in there, grabbed her hands and drag her upstairs to show her why she wasn’t going to leave.“Again, thank you, but I can’t stay. I just wanted to speak with Asher before I left.” I heard her say. “And it’s taking too long for him to come home. I don’t know if you please tell him I said good-bye?” She said.Okay, that was the height of what I could stay here and listen to, because I was already boiling. But then again, I knew I couldn’t show anger because I knew she was also hurting.I grabbed the doorknob and pushed it downward to open the door,
The Untamed Billionaire One Hundred and Forty
Asher’s POVThis was it, the height of the avoidance I could do, really, but I was trying to prove a point to May, that she needed me as much as I needed her.She was the other half of me I didn’t know before, or maybe I did, but didn’t want to accept it then. Back then, she would have been the one trying to get me to see her, now I was the one, and I thought avoiding her would make her see me.But it was killing me, really. I just want her to come to me already, and it was what I had been waiting for.Brent shook his head at me as he sat in front of me with his glare on me. “Just what the hell are you doing to yourself, Asher.” He asked.“What I think would work!” I said, but was it really working. "Look, Brent, I know it seems crazy, sounds so, even, but I need her to realize how much she means to me and I can’t do that if she doesn’t want me," I replied, frustration evident in my voice.I didn’t care right now, as long as I put it out there. I was tired of having to explain myself
The Untamed Billionaire One Hundred and Thirty Nine
Asher’s POV“Fuck baby, I just want to kiss you right now.” I said and I watched as her eyes went huge in her face for a couple of seconds before she closed her eyes tightly. I smiled again, shaking my head.Although, Gary had been an ass who just wanted me dead, but then again, he had given me a good advice, and told me to make haste when it came to dealing with May.She was my wife, but at this point, it was just in name only. She was not as close to me as I would want her to be. I wanted her back, the woman I had married, the one that would look at me like I was the only man in the world that mattered.I wanted the woman that always cared for me and put me first. Yes, I might have been the one to drive her off with my stupid opinion, but at least, I was trying to get her back now.I stared down at her mouth, as she licked it, but I knew it was because she was nervous. I liked it though, and I smiled again, before finally pushing my head to hers, and kissing her, pushing my tongue i
The Untamed Billionaire One Hundred and Thirty Eight
May’s POVA knock sounded on the door of my room, and I knew it was Asher before I asked who it was. That was the way he usually knocked. If it was the butler, I would know as well, but I asked all the same.“Who’s that?” I asked, and as expected, Asher answered.“It’s me, May.” He said and I sighed, pushing up from the chair in front of my dresser I was sitting to walk to the door.I had locked it earlier when I walked in after lunch to get a bit of a shut eye. I had just woken up about a couple of minutes ago, and I had washed my face, and sat down to apply some facial cream on my face.I grabbed the doorknob and twisted it open. “Hey, Ash. What do you want?” I asked as soon as I saw him standing there.Okay, I didn’t mean to sound like this, at all, so I would blame it on the fact that I had just woken up from sleep.He gave me a surprised look, like he didn’t expect me to ask him that, but then again, I wasn't in the mood to explain that this was because I had just woken up from s
The Untamed Billionaire One Hundred and Thirty Seven
Asher’s POV“I can’t believe you did all of this because of what Dad did, Gary.” I said as I stared at the man sitting opposite me with a table between us and a cop waiting in the room with us.It had been a whole week since they arrested that man and he had provided evidence that Gary had not only sent him to stab me, but kill me.He must have missed a vital organ was why I was still here, alive. I just couldn’t believe it when I was told Gary was arrested as well.“I wouldn’t say I regretted my actions, because I wanted you gone. I wanted to hit your father where I knew it would hurt.” He said, a small smile on his face, and I scoffed.“Are you crazy?” I asked. “I can’t believe you would do this and take it lightly. Look around, buddy, you’re in jail.” I said and he lifted his hand in a shrug.“I know that, don’t you think I can see?” he asked me. “But then again, I tried what I wanted to, I got to see your father’s face and the fear on his face when he saw your in that condition. H
The Untamed Billionaire One Hundred and Thirty Six
May’s POVI smiled mentally as I did a small victory dance when Brent told me the police had gotten the man who assaulted Asher, and that mood had been with me since then.He had told me since morning, but it was already evening, and I was still happy. What more could I have asked for, than for the man to start talking, which I was sure he would do soon.“Mrs. Campbell, your husband want your attention in the study.” I heard someone said behind me and I turned to see the housekeeper standing there with the napkin in hand, making me realize that she was probably about to start on dinner.Why was Asher wanting my attention anyway, I wanted to ask her as I raised my brows but I didn’t. Instead, I nodded my head at her and said. “Thank you, Dee.”She nodded her head with a small bow and then she walked out of the living room. I turned my head back after she was gone to the book that was in my hand. I had been reading to while away time because I was starting to get bored out of my mind. A
The Untamed Billionaire One Hundred and Thirty Five
Asher’s POVAnd as soon as Brent said that, the smile on my face faltered. This was just what I was waiting for. For some reason, I felt like May had been trying to stop him from telling me, but if that was the case, I wasn’t sure why.Was she trying to shield Gary, or me? Well, if I knew her as much as I thought I do, then she was probably shielding me.In her actions, I saw a familiar pattern of protectiveness that May often exhibited towards me. It wasn’t uncommon for her to try to shield me from unpleasant truths or difficult situations. She was probably doing this because she thought I couldn’t handle the truth of what they were about to tell me.Well, I would have to hear what all these was about to know if I could handle it or not. Just because I was just discharged from the hospital doesn’t mean I was some soft man that couldn’t handle some amount of truth.“Oh, yes! I would like to hear that very much.” I said, looking from Brent to my wife who was throwing him a look. My bes
The Untamed Billionaire One Hundred and Thirty Four
May’s POV“Huh, I think I hear the door.” Asher said and I looked up from my computer with a groan. I had just finished cooking lunch, and came back to resuming work about ten minutes ago, now I had to stand up again?I was going to have to call back the domestic staff because I needed to be able to stay on top of work as well as taking care of Asher. Doing things like having to get the door and other things like that wasn’t going to work.With I sigh, I stood up. “That must be Brent. You said he was on his way, right?” I asked and he nodded.There was something different about Asher that I just couldn’t put my fingers around since. For some reason, it seemed like he was brooding about something.I couldn’t help but think that maybe it was because of me and the fact that I was back here. I knew he said he wanted me back, but what if he was not comfortable with me anymore? What if he was not feeling as settled as he thought he would be if I came back?I shook my head off that thought,
