Jake stepped out of the vehicle holding out his arm for Freya who immediately joined him, linking her arms to his. If not that Jake rented the entire place, cameras would be flashing in their faces and most people would mistake them for a celebrity couple at how glamorous they looked.This happened to be one of the most spectacular and expensive restaurants in Oklahoma. It was located close to a seaside, with a beautiful sitting area donned with white and red roses. Thousands of candles were lit in every corner. On their table, they had their played and cutleries wrapped in white and red napkins too. The fresh air and calm waves made the environment peaceful.Freya, seeing such a beautiful and romantic site, her mouth dropped open. "You might catch a fly," Jake joked."Huh?" "I am talking about you leaving your mouth open. Close it, so you don't swallow a fly." Kissing on the lips, "come. We have to explore the entire night," Jake said, leading her to their seat.Settling down, a vi
Dante kept being grumpy with all the explanations Declan gave him. He was trying to clarify the shares, different companies and assets he had. So far, there were twenty sub-companies, five major companies and a net worth of five billion dollars. Don't even get started on the cars, private jets and houses. They were uncountable."You talk about a restaurant and hotel being our major investment. Why would my father ever go into those?""It wasn't your father's idea, but your mother's. She was so passionate about feeding and housing people. Within a year of establishing them, they were already doing so well."Whenever his mother's name was mentioned, Dante got so emotional and wanted to feel some kind of connection with her. He forever hated being motherless. If he could turn back the hands of time, he would do that for the sake of his mother. Yes, he was overwhelmed with his father's demons and training but, his mother's heart battled them all."Take me to both. I want to see what they
After their romantic date filled with giggles and smooching, Freya suggested they extend the night by going for a walk. Happily, they linked hands and began taking a stroll along the roaring ocean, enjoying the cool air and peaceful night."OKAY, I have to ask. What are you doing?" Her face scrunched while she watched him bend down for the second time that evening to pick up a rock and shove it in his pocket."Oh, just a tradition we did with my family," he explained. He looked away and huffed a laugh.She watched him, intrigued by the soft curve of his lips as he thought over whatever this family tradition was. The night sky slowly dropped in the sky as the night turned darker, giving the stars a comfortable zone to sparkle like the perfect backdrop behind his broad chest encased in his expensive suit. His pale complexion made himlook more gorgeous and more American than Freya, and yet, he still stood out as unique among the straggling individuals; couples and tourists around the be
His eyes dropped to her chest, and she applauded her choice to wear the lacy bra that made her breast perky. And there was no hiding how the way he looked at her hardened her nipples to desperate peaks."Before you met me, did you have past relationships?""A few. But was never stable.""How about vacations?""A few. Some were with Grandpa.""Maybe a few trips with all the women you've been with?" she asked, trying to make herself believe that Jake probably swooped women away to seduce them, only to leave them. Maybe she'd crave him less if she actually thought he truly was the man who would give his life in exchange for his.Instead of a fond smile about his travels like she expected, he snorted."Hardly.""What? Didn't make freaky memories while away?""Oh, no, Freya. I could have had anyone with me," he said, confidence dripping from his words."So, why not take them?"The arrogant smirk faded, and he studied her again, this time like he was curious and not like he could see throug
Dante wanted to dump the blame on the fact that he went on for days without sex. He needed to find someone who could fulfill his hunger and stand his strength during sex.He turned to Declan, who was typing furiously on his phone, and said, "I need a hookup for the night.""You need to start sorting out the pilled paper works before your relocation to Seattle. I think the Headquarters will do better if you are there to handle things. Although you are still unfamiliar with the business, it would cost no harm if you start already," Declan finished.Sighing, "I hope you didn't just ignore my request by starting a conversation about the company. Are you hard of hearing? I just said that I need a hookup.""Alpha Dante, Ian," Declan called out. "There are so many things you are yet to know. One is, you can't just put your member in any hole except that of your mate. Especially if you are preparing for the purification ritual. The one that will turn you into a true Alpha. Having sex will only
The taxi pulled up in front of a five-star suite. Nefline couldn't keep her hands to herself. She kept whispering sweet-nothing to Dante, who seemed to be distracted. Dante got them checked into the most expensive unit. He could barely hold it together. Was waiting to explode, releasing the stress that has been building for a while."Time for more elusiveness," Nefline thought to her drunk self. "I better shower. Doing so will put me in a sexier mood."He clasped her elbow with a warm, strong hand. "We are not an item. Don't misunderstand the situation. This is fun and nothing more. No emotions. No romance. And definitely no entanglement."Nefline's back shot straight as if she'd been jolted, and unfamiliar sensations radiated through her body. A rush of heat mixed with shivers? Before she turned back to him, she masked her look of bewilderment. He didn't mask his. His eyes had narrowed, his lips parting. "If that is not okay with you, let us quit before this gets any deeper." He rele
They kept quiet, linking hands as they walked to where the car was parked. Jake opened the car door for Freya, who looked up at him with love before settling down. Jake joined him afterward."This was a beautiful night. Thank you for making it worthwhile," Jake murmured against her ear, brushing her knuckles."Anything for my baby. I promise to create only happy memories with you and nothing more.""I like the sound of that.""I have one final surprise for you.""Oh, wow. Shoot," Freya giggled."I have arranged for you to move down to Seattle. It will give you a better opportunity. As much as I hate the idea of sending you miles away from me, I think that is the one place that holds a better chance than Oklahoma. You've potentials which this city is swallowing up.""I don't want to be away from you. I hate it.""Me too. But, it is for the best. We will find a way to make it work. Moreover, we won't be apart. I will visit regularly, and you will do the same. We will communicate and fill
Three Weeks Later..."How do I look?" Freya asked herself while staring into the mirror. Of course, it was a rhetorical question that she would have appreciated if there was someone to give her a genuine answer."Nervous. Anxious. Sweet. Pretty. One of those ought to be the right answer, right?" she chuckled, rubbing her arms. That would have been the response from Jake. Always encouraging and supportive. Oh, how she missed him so much. But they finally had to make the heartbreaking decision of being in different cities. Both could hardly go a day without each other.She had put on a white pencil dress and nice pumps. Classy. Sexy. Plus, she was going for serious and professional today. She wanted to make a great impression on her first day at work. Her naugat-brown hair was styled in a loose chignon, and she'd streaked her blue eyes with a dark eyeliner that made them look bold. She topped her looks with a red lipstick that made her lips fuller.Freya knew how to wear her clothes. An
