All Chapters of The Billionaire's Runaway Lover: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

“What it is like?” I asked as I leaned against the table. My breasts were pushed up as I popped a spoon of ice cream into my mouth.“What is what like?” he replied.“Being the CEO of such a big company. Is it everything you expected?”He released a long breath as he sat back. I sucked on the spoon as I let him think about the answer. I could see that he was distracted, though. “Do you want the truth?” he inquired.“Always.”“It’s everything and more. I think I have the most incredible job on the planet. Like my whole life has led up to this moment. But now that I am at the top, I am scrambling for time. There is so much to do and such little time to achieve it.”“But you will be at the helm of your company for a long time, right?” I asked, confused.He nodded. “Absolutely. But when is there enough time to save humanity, right?”

We lay next to each other, the content look on Kai's face made me all smug inside. We were all cleaned up from our previous round of sex, and we lay in bed naked together. It was such an intimate position to be in. My rational side was being ignored as I let my body be lulled into sleep next to the most beautiful man on the planet.His eyes were closed but his thumb continued to draw lazy circles on my naked hip. It didn’t take long for his breathing to even out and his hand grew disoriented. Finally, he stopped. I followed shortly after, drifting into a light sleep and only awakening when I felt Kai shift his body in his sleep from time to time.At one point, his body was wrapped around mine and he seemed so comfortable with affection that I immediately relaxed into his warm embrace.I got my first taste of snuggling.I didn’t sleep deeply, so I woke up as the sun began the lighten the sky. I giggled to myself as I felt his erection against m

It had been two months since I last spent the night with Kai. Two months since he pressed his lips against mine before slipping out of the room.I shouldn’t have any reason to expect more. He had never promised me anything and neither had I.So why did my heart beat faster every time Aria called me? And why did I feel disappointed every time she didn’t mention his name?As each week passed without Aria calling me to say Eric had been in touch, I felt more and more frustrated with the situation. I had no way of contacting him. Kai and I had no lines of communication. He didn’t have my number and I definitely didn’t have his. He didn’t even know my real name. And I was sure that he didn’t want to know it, either.Kai’s position as the CEO of a massive company and as the son of the sitting President naturally garnered a lot of media attention, However, the fact that he was single, combined with his status as the sexi

James and I mingled as we sipped our champagne. Well, he mostly mingled, and I looked over pretty people in pretty clothes. I was finding out things about celebrities that I hadn’t known before. And while I couldn’t see Kai early in the night, I did see Eric and Daniella. And I avoided them.When I saw his rumored girlfriend, I was in two minds. She was stunning. And although I had no idea if it was a designer dress or not, she was not less conspicuous than the A-list celebrities attending. However, I was a little relieved that she was having pre-dinner drinks. It meant that she was not here as Kai’s date and just came on the invitation.Aria had been right. It was fun and James was a critique when it came to the clothes everyone wore. It was hilarious.We were finally called to dinner and I had to say I was happy to see the ballroom and just how many tables were in it. The chances of Kai seeing me were slim to none. I wasn’t sure if his

“I have been traveling a lot. We have been locked down in negotiations on several matters. I really wanted to call.” “What about the other woman?” Kai scoffed and shook his head. “There is nothing going on there. What about James Reese?” “You actually know all the guests?” “I saw the guest list and figured out who he was when I saw someone suspiciously familiar beside him,” he replied quickly as if the information was inconsequential. “You two seem… to be having a good time together. Is this an overnight thing or…” “Oh no. It’s not like that.” “I’m not sure about that. He treats you very affectionately.” His voice was cutting, hurt even. “He’s more interested in you than me,” I said blandly. “What?” he asked, incredulous. “It’s not common knowledge. Don’t tell anyone. I’ve come to keep people off his back.” “Oh. I don’t know the guy so it doesn’t mean anything to me. Although…” He looked down at his hand
