" Teach me how to be yours, professor. 'Cause no matter how wrong this is, I still want you." *** It was supposed to be just one night. One night of pleasure. To forget the pain and the heartbreak from her ex. Lauren Gray, an undercover agent, finds herself in bed in the arms of a gorgeous and breathtaking stranger. And he was out of her bed before she even woke up. But there was something about his blue eyes, his touch, and his blond hair that she can't get out of her head no matter how hard she tried. Six months later, Lauren is assigned to protect the Senator's son, Chase Newton, who's in college and to go undercover as his physics professor. But what happens when Chase Newton turns out to be the man from her one night stand six months ago? And to complicate matters, Chase is just getting started with her. He still wanted her even though she's four years older than him. And it's over when he says so.
View MoreEPILOGUETwo years laterChase and I went on a vacation in Hawaii. We're in our beach house in Hawaii. Reynold Boyce was arrested after being proved guilty for shooting me and nearly killing me. They found him through the tracker in the money I handed him. And a secret hidden surveillance camera in the parking lot showed a recording of Reynold Boyce shooting me. He was transferred to a maximum security prison in Russia. He's not getting out anytime soon.Regina was also arrested. She was found guilty. I was right. She was compromised and she truly worked with Reynold to ruin my life and my career. She confessed later after she was confronted. According to Tanner, Regina died in prison two months ago after being beaten by a fellow inmate in
42| THE END" How certain are you that Regina is working for Reynold Boyce?" Tanner asks that Tuesday evening.We're in my house and they're here to console me because I just got fired because I slept with my client. It's not their fault, I told my friends, maybe I deserve it. I'm too reckless.I've been calling Chase's number throughout these past days, he's not picking up my calls. I'm on the verge of driving to his house myself. I'm worried about Tina, I miss Chase. I'm just so screwed." Lauren?" Roxie calls my name when I don't answer Tanner's question.I sigh and sit down. I've been pacing ar
41| EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED" Something is wrong. How's he out of jail?" Tanner asks as he paces the floor of my living room.It's Sunday. I spent Saturday night crying, cursing Reynold and thinking about the countless ways I wanted him dead. I've tried calling Chase's number but it's not connecting. I think he blocked my number. My life's over. The only man that I fell in love with, I ruined everything. Maybe I was the reason Caleb left me for that redhead bitch. Because of me my sister is nowhere to be found. She's skipping classes and nobody has seen her around because I kicked her out.Why don't I ever make good decisions? How the fuck did I ruin my fucking relationship with a man that made me happy? He was right. I care so much about my
40| I'M SORRYI don't pay attention to the two men who're about to kill themselves for thousands of dollars but on Reynold Boyce. My heart is beating strangely too fast. Reynolds eyes are locked on mine as he gets off the stage. I bite the inside of my cheeks, suddenly feeling the urge to get the hell out of here. I want to throw up right now.How the hell is he out of jail?But I can do this. I have to be strong and supportive for Chase's sake. Reynold Boyce won't stop looking at me with his sly one sided smirk." How's he out of jail?" I ask the question that's been eating me up since I laid my eyes on Reynold." I don't know. I'm going to
" Who do you think would send you such creepy messages?" Tanner asks.It's Saturday morning and I barely slept last night. I spent the night thinking who would want to send me such creepy weird messages and no name came to mind. Well except Regina. But why? I called my friends on FaceTime this morning to find a solution to this. I can't tell Chase. I don't want him to worry because of me and the other reason is because I don't want him to know about my job. I want to tell him myself and I'm planning on doing that tomorrow which is Sunday." Tanner, can you at least decipher whose person's number is that?" Roxie asks. We're all in our houses since it's Saturday morning." It's a blocked number and a complete dead end." Tanner says, shaking his head.
I knock on Roxie's door as I patiently wait outside." Yeah. Come in." Roxie's voice calls out to me.I slowly open her door and step inside her office. Her desk is filled with different paperwork and she's on the phone with someone. She sees me and smiles at me." Lauren!" She smiles proudly." I'm gonna call you back, babe." She says to the other person on the phone and hangs up.Roxie drops her phone on her desk and rounds the desk to hug me." Oh babe." She squeezed the life out of me. I laugh and we pull apart, wit
I wake up to the smell of coffee, bacon and eggs in the air. Without being told, I know my mom's behind that beguiling aroma. It's Monday morning. The day all of this pretentious act that has to deal with Chase comes to an end. If I'm lucky, today should be a good day for me. Chase left last night and I don't remember him leaving my bedroom. When I woke up at midnight, I found a handwritten note by Chase, telling me he couldn't spend the night and that he had to leave. Attached with beautiful kisses and I love yous. I quickly take a shower and get dressed in a dark grey short sleeve dress. I slip my feet inside my pumps. I add a little natural make up and twirl around in front of my mirror. I look good. I grab my handbag and walk out of my bedroom to the kitchen. I am correct. Mom is in the kitchen eating bacon and eggs, with coffee on the side." Good morning, ma." I smile at my mom and grab a mug to pour myself some already brewed coffee."
" It's illegal right?" I ask Chase. We're in my bedroom and he's yet to leave after dinner. My fingers play with the diamond necklace he bought me around my neck. I still can't believe he'd get me something like this. And then his words kept ringing in my head.'I don't want you to hurt me.'" What's illegal?"" The underground fighting club." I say.Chase smiles." I mean, for a long time I knew underground fighting was illegal. Big, rich men, who get off watching two people try to kill themselves have tried to legitimize it, but I don't think they've succeeded."
On Sunday, I clean the house and constantly check my phone for a reply from Chase. I haven't gotten anything yet. I feel like he was ghosting me." Are you okay?" Mom asks when we sat down for breakfast that morning. " You've been checking your phone constantly? Is it the boyfriend?"I roll my eyes." Yeah."" Something wrong? You guys fighting again?"" It's not really fighting. There's this guy I actually dated for a short time because I wanted to... you know...try and get Chase out of my head. Well…Chase got pissed I was dating him and this other guy and he wa
" Mic check, Gray." Tanner says from my earpiece. " I'm in." I reply, walking into the infamous Miami club. It's popular for different reasons and the MPD is yet to discover why. Few months ago, there was news that the club was a sex club. Not just a sex club, but a ring for transporting illegal drugs, trafficking, and sales of illegal weapons. So here I am, in the middle of a case I'm not supposed to be involved with because I just graduated from the academy. But out of luck and trial, Chief Bradford decides to give me a chance not to screw this up or— He really didn't get to tell me the 'or' so I'll just skip that part. " Mic check, Gray." I hear the bitter voice of Regina Foxx. My arch nemesis. I fucking hate this bitch. You may ask me why, but you'll find out soon enough. " Don't you fucking call me by my last name, Regina." I grit out as I look around the clu...
