You Are Mine For Keeps. Let's Play A Game
"Daisy." His tone warned her that he wouldn’t be put off. She sighed. "I’ll forgive her, I always do. I don’t have a choice, really, because I love her and I know she means well, even if she is seriously misguided. But this thing with the hairpin...." "Go on." He encouraged. She rubbed at the ache in her chest. "It broke something in our relationship. And no matter how we move forward, there’s always going to be that crack there that didn’t exist before. That’s what hurts." Brett was quiet for a long time. One of his hands slid into her hair, while the other curled possessively over her hip. She waited for him to say what was on his mind. "I broke something in our relationship, too," he said finally, his voice somber. "I’m afraid it is always going to be between us." The sadness in his eyes twisted into Daisy, hurting her. "Let me up." He did, reluctantly, watching her warily as she stood. She hesitated before she unzipped her skirt. "Now I know what it feels li
You Are Mine For Keeps. Hello Girls
Daisy pouted. "Please, my love." "Sunshine, getting you off is ninety-nine percent of the fun for me." "But then I’m so busy coming that I don’t get to enjoy you." She complained. "Just for once, one night. I want you to be selfish. I want you to let go, be an animal, come just because it feels good and you’re ready." His lips thinned. "I can’t do that with you. I need you with me." "I knew you’d say that. But this is my game and it's played by my rules." "I haven’t agreed to play." He hammered. "Hear me out." Brett exhaled slowly. "I can’t do it, Daisy." "You could do it with other women," she argued. "I wasn’t in love with them." Daisy melted, unable to help it. "Baby I want this," she whispered. "Real bad." He made an exasperated noise. "Help me understand. I can’t hear your heart racing when I’m gasping for breath. I can’t feel you shaking when I’m shaking, too. I can’t taste you when my mouth is dry from begging you to finish me off." His beautiful face
You Are Mine For Keeps. Summary Of Assignment
Laughing, Daisy shoved at his shoulders and he pushed her backward until she sprawled on the floor between the sofa and coffee table. He hovered above her, his arms tight and hard from supporting his weight. His gaze roamed, caressing her bra, then her bare tummy, then her thong and garters. The ensemble she wore post-shower was crimson-red, chosen to keep Brett revved. "You’re my lucky charm," he said. Daisy squeezed his biceps. "Really?" "Yep." He licked the upper swell of her breast. "You’re magically delicious." "Oh my God." She laughed. "You're cheesy now." His eyes smiled at her. "My goddess of desire, pleasure, and corny one-liners. Did you like the wine from this evening?" "Yeah, it's quite heavenly. Is it new in the market?" "Yes." He pecked her forehead. "And you're looking at the new owner." "Oh Brett, now we've delved into wines. No wonder you know how to make use of your tongue. You're a great wine taster, aren't you?" Reading all the possible meani
You Are Mine For Keeps. Lana's Payback
"Omg! how could I have forgotten!" Ugo exclaimed. "What's that?" Daisy asked. "Someone called the house phone earlier today. She said she is your friend. It's weird because you've never mentioned a friend of yours that bears Lana." "What, Lana?" "Yes. Is she your friend?" "Hell no!" Daisy replied. "Now that's not funny. She said she had news and she wants you to call her back. She even left a number and said to give you in case the number you have doesn't go through." Daisy shot a look at Brett. He caught her stare and his eyes took on that familiar hard gleam. "Such a smart ass woman. Did you tell her anything?" She asked Ugo in a low voice. "Tell her anything, like what?" "Like something you wouldn’t want to tell a total stranger and Brett's ex." Brett's face took on a stony cast. He passed Daisy to drop the trash bag, then came back to her side. "You’re friends with Brett's ex?" Ugo asked. "Are you nuts?" "No, I’m not friends with her. I have no idea ho

"Did Brett tell you what he did to her?" Lana asked Daisy."Yes, he did." Daisy replied defensively. "And you're still with him? Don't tell me he's turned you into some heartless...." "Lana, I don't like you, but I don't want you to be a pain. That would suck, big time.""I don't plan to. But you should be more scared of what that other woman would do. A little birdie told me that your so-called man is getting sued for kicking a young man he met in your apartment with your best friend. Is that true?"Daisy looked at Brett and her stomach cramped. He had once kicked a guy for attempting to lay a finger on her one faithful night that she walked in on Ugo with two men. That part was true, but saying that Brett was getting sued...She kept staring at him, then she saw it. He was being sued. The proof was on his face, which was devoid of all emotions, hidden behind a flawless mask."No, it is not true," she answered. "Which part?""I have nothing further to say to you Lana." "You don't
You Are Mine For Keeps. Two Lovers That Understand Each Other.
Daisy met Brett sprawled up on the couch, pretending to be asleep. Understanding that to be a sign that he didn't want to talk about her last call, she lay beside him and soon the both of them drifted off to sleep. Daisy drifted in and out of consciousness, plagued by anxiety. In fact, she was awake enough to sense the change in Brett when his heartbeat increased, followed by the tightening of his grip on her arm. His body jerked powerfully, and he whimpered, causing Daisy to wriggle around to face him. Her quick, agitated movements succeeded in waking him up. "What?" he gasped, opening his eyes, with alertness. "What’s wrong?" "I think you were about to slip into a nightmare." She pressed soft kisses over his hot face, wishing her love could be enough to banish the crazy nightmares. Brett tried to sit up but Daisy clung tighter to him, holding him down. "Are you okay?" He asked, running a hand over her, searching for a hurt spot. "Did I hurt you?" "I’m fine." She replied.
You Are Mine For Keeps. Combating Rumors
Daisy's sleep was interrupted by the vibration of her phone, a call from Madison. She slipped out of the room and found her way to Brett's temporary study. "Hello, Maddie." "Daisy," Madison's vibrant voice echoed from the other end of the line. "Did I call too early? I'm so sorry." "Oh no, you did not. Is everything okay?" "Yeah, I'm kind of trying to confirm your presence at my birthday Monday evening." "Oh!" Daisy exclaimed, cursing under her breath. Regretting that she'd forgotten about Madison's birthday completely. "I... Maddie, can I give you a call back, say in an hour or two with a solid reply to your question?" "Sure." Madison said, after a brief silence. "Umm, it's going to be just you and two of my friends and their boyfriends. I'm really hoping you would come. I don't want to be the odd one amongst them." "Yeah, I understand Maddie. What time is it?" "Six in the evening." "You've got a venue yet?" "Yes. Oxygen lounge. You can locate it with your map. Can
You Are Mine For Keeps. Diffusing Bombs
"You're n essence, you need a new social media handler for the foundation's socials and you need a new easy and less complicated website. Something beautiful, yet so easy to navigate. And your name and pictures need to always pop up whenever the foundation is searched on any search engine. You need to be tied to the foundation. There should be links and info about the charities that have benefited from your foundation. There should be a page that thoroughly describes what the foundation is all about." "All of the information are sent out to any of the charity organizations we want to work with." "Great. Add it to your website, people need to know. Do you understand me, Brett Lexington?" She met his raised brows with her own. Then shoved a to-do list in front of him. "We’re defusing all the incoming bombs before they blow. And all my suggestions need to be put in motion before Tuesday. We don't have the luxury of time." Brett took a cursory glance at the paper in front of him, th
