•120•Comforting

Alex entered his penthouse and slowly made his way towards the small bar built-in along the wall leading to the kitchen. It contained booze of various brands and flavors he hadn't touched in a long while. But today, the drive to do so was irresistible.Opening the cabinet door, he pulled out a large bottle of untouched scotch along with a shot glass. Without bothering to wipe the shot glass, he uncapped the bottle, poured himself a shot of the scotch, and downed it in one gulp.The stiff alcohol burned his throat, causing his eyes to water, but that didn't stop him from pouring another one and downing it just as quickly.“Alex, you're back.” A soft, feminine voice came from behind him.Nodding, he turned to face the owner of the voice. It was Nicole. He tried to smile at her, but the awkward stretch of his lips told him that what he had on his face was nothing close to a smile.“How's my sister? I suppose she's back from the business trip?” Nicole asked.The mention of Skylar caused t

•121•Fucking It Up

Alex stirred awake somewhere in the middle of the night. He noticed three things immediately. The lights were on –and he never slept with his lights on. He was sleeping on his living room floor instead of his bedroom. But the most glaring realization was that he was naked with a very human-like weight on him,Stomach churning, he looked down, and he thought his heart was going to fly out of his chest when his eyes met a very naked, sleeping Nicole.He sat up abruptly like he'd been jolted with electricity, the sudden action throwing Nicole off of him and startling her awake immediately.He stared at her, his heart beating wildly as she yawned and squinted at him. “Alex." She said softly. Way too softly when he'd been expecting her to break into a panic just as he was.Why wasn't she just as freaked out as he was?Maybe she was panicking too. But she was trying to hide it so that he couldn't feel like shit. But he already felt like shit.“Fuck!” Cursing loudly, he shot up to his feet a

•122•Acceptance

It was time, Luca decided. This time, he wasn't going to allow Skylar to escape the conversation that needed to be had like she'd done yesterday.He pressed on her doorbell and waited. A few seconds later, the door was pried open by the woman he was after, looking radiant in a pink sundress. He quickly took a stance, prepared to push back just in case she attempted to shut the door in his face.To his surprise, she merely stepped back to allow him entrance. Luca flashed her a smile she didn't return as he stepped inside her house.He heard the sound of music being played from a phone before he spotted Austin bouncing and shaking his body exhilaratingly to the beat while on his feet, Laura dancing along with him.As soon as his son saw him, he beckoned Luca excitedly to come dance too. Luca did, heart swelling with so much love he thought it would burst as he wondered whether his son got so excited whenever he saw him because he recognized him as his father, or it was all just part of t

•123•Terrible Sister

As soon as the door closed behind Luca, Skylar sank into her couch, covering her face with her hands. Despite the tears burning her eyes, she'd done a great job of keeping it together while Luca was there. But now that he was gone, the sobs racked through her body unbidden, making her body quiver with its force as tears streamed through her palms.God, she loved Luca so much her heart ached. And seeing the heartbroken, tearful resignation in his eyes when he said he was letting her go had almost tore her apart. It'd taken every bit of will within her body to keep herself from fucking all her inhibitions and running into his arms.But no. This was for the best. She couldn't afford to make Luca keep thinking that he was her only option. That would make him continue to think he had power to do whatever he wanted with her.The doorbell rang. Skylar stiffened, her mind instantly going on Luca. He couldn't even handle five minutes of letting her go?The person at the door after she'd had wip

•124•Keeping His Word

The first thing Alena announced when Skylar got to work the next day was that the CEO had resigned and returned to Rockford. Skylar quickly disregarded it, believing that it was just like the rumors last time when Luca went away for just a day.She was proved wrong when an impromptu board meeting was held later that day. Luca had really left, leaving Brandon Wood to run the affairs of the Chicago branch.Skylar didn't know how to feel about that. Sure, Luca had said he wasn't going to interfere in her life anymore, but to this extent? What about their son?Was the supposed love he had for their son so fake that now that she'd told him she didn't want to be with him, he would just leave and decide not to return?She shook her head to clear the thought. Luca's love was real. She'd seen it in his tears the first time he held Austin and his affection and adoration every time he was with their son. He was going to be back.But a week passed, then two, and yet she heard nothing from him. Sh

•125•What Ifs And Maybes

The woman on Luca's arm was gorgeous. With her glowing brown skin, an oval face shaped by pitch black hair that was swept to one side of her neck, thick brows, and body adorned in a body-hugging halter dress, the woman was every definition of stunning.She said something to Luca and when he looked at her and chuckled, Skylar felt like her chest was being stomped on. She nearly flinched when Luca suddenly looked in her direction, her heart picking up pace as their eyes met and held.She lost the unannounced staring contest too quickly, turning away while pretending like she was helping with the coordination of waiters even though she knew Cornelia had more than had that taken care of.In her haste to get out of Luca's view, she nearly toppled someone over. The person held both herself and himself stable, and she looked up to find that it was Alex."Hey, watch out!" He said, brows arched. "Is everything alright?""Yes." She nodded and smile

•126•To Start Over

Just as Skylar started making her way towards Luca, Cornelia's voice came through the speakers, announcing that it was time for dinner. Everyone who was up on their feet went to take their seat, and sighing, Skylar went to do so too.The closest family to the birthday boy and girl, if she could even call Cornelia that, were going to be seated at one table larger than the others.There was Skylar herself, her mum and her dad, Austin, Cornelia and her husband, Ana, one of Luca's aunts, Ella, Abhishek, Laura, Luca, and...and what the heck was Aisha doing at the close family table?Her heart sinking, Skylar focused on picking her meal choice from the menus already laid out on the table. It consisted of a ridiculous amount of different dishes. The catering service was definitely charging a fortune if they were willing to provide all these for anyone who requested them.Cornelia insisted on feeding Austin, which shouldn't have been a problem, but at that moment, it was, because with Skylar's

•127•Like Coming Home

He had to be dreaming. That was the only possibility Luca could think about for the things he was hearing. After all, it was only in his dreams that he heard Skylar saying those words to him. Nightly dreams that left him in a state of despair every time he awoke the next morning.Even when Skylar drew his head down and smashed her lips to his, he still couldn't accept that it wasn't a dream. Yet, he kissed her back, matching her fierceness and her fervour, his hands running all over her as her hands pulled haphazardly at him.The more he drank in the taste of her tongue and reveled in her moans of relish as they kissed, the more real it all felt.“Oh my God!” “Jesus fucking Christ!” Came voices that had definitely never been in his dreams. Skylar broke their kiss and pulled away so sharply that his head reeled from the sudden deprivation of her mouth.As Luca looked around at the faces all around them, it struck him more and more that there was no way this could be a dream. Apparent

•128•Too Happy

When Luca's body began quavering again, Skylar's first thought was that it was a second wave of orgasm that'd waited a minute after the first to hit him, until the sounds of his broken sobs reached her ears."Tarzan..." She breathed in shock.The magnitude of emotion behind every sob had chills running down her spine, his tears further dampening her already sweat-soaked chest.He hadn't told her why he was crying, and yet somehow, she knew, and it pulled the tears out of her own eyes. Wrapping her arms around him, she cried along with him when she should be comforting him."I'm sorry." Luca croaked when their sobs eased. "God, I'm so sorry for being such a mess, Vanilla. It's just that I thought I'd lost you forever and having you like this again, it... It..."Another broken sound erupted from his throat as he cried some more."I know... I know. It's okay, Luca. It's okay." She smiled sadly as she continued to hold him.Finally, when his tears stopped, he lifted his head from her ches

•129•Wasted Four Years Already

Since it was the weekend, both Skylar and Luca didn't have to worry much about work commitments, and Laura was more than happy to take care of Austin a day more without Skylar.They spent the rest of the day and the following together inside Luca's house, not a single step outside. They made love countless times, watched movies, cooked and ate together, or just talked about mundane things.She'd always known that Luca had never been high on the social/friendship scene, and it became obvious once again as they talked about their lives before each other, consisting of fresh tales or ones they'd already told each other years ago.Because of his father, Luca had always been focused on business. As a result, the few friends he made had got tired of his nonchalance and stopped being in his life. Only Caleb had been persistent enough throughout the years. Skylar knew Luca had always been fond of him, and she hated the fact that they hadn't spoken in nearly five months."How's Caleb doing?" Sh
