All Chapters of Taming The CEO's Son: A Marriage of Inconvenience: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

-Leia-I don’t want to admit it, but I am enjoying myself shooting the shit with Christian. He’s been an absolute gentleman tonight and if I am being honest, he’s actually quite funny. I haven’t laughed this much in ages!“Wait, so she barged into your conference meeting wearing a fur coat while buck-naked underneath?” I ask incredulously as he’s recounting one failed conquest after another. “What the hell did she think was gonna happen?”Christian runs a hand over his red face, the smile on his lips contagious. “That I’d drop an important meeting with my Tokyo investors for her? Socialites seldom think further than their cell phones,” he says, shaking his head.I have no idea how our conversation got here, but it seems easy. We’re not expecting anything from each other and the alcohol seems to be loosening us up even more. “Christ, she would not have gotten past me if I were your PA. I can spot the fake ones a mile away,” I say as I sip on my red wine even though I’m already buzzed.

-Leia- I watch Christian from across the table at brunch time, talking away on his cell phone. He’s not raising his voice to his employees, but he’s speaking in a low, commanding tone that makes my lady bits tingle. And to think, I used to say he’s not CEO material. He places his cell phone face down on the table and looks at me with a smirk tugging at his lips. “Is there a reason you’re staring at me like that, Red?” “No reason,” I say as I lift my mimosa to my lips. “Just admiring the way you boss people around.” Chuckling, he leans back in his chair. “Oh, now you’re admiring it? I used to think you hated that about me.” I shrug. “Guess I find it sexy now; you should totally use that voice in bed with me.” He raises his eyebrow at this. “I never would have taken you for the type to enjoy being bossed around.” “Out here, no; underneath you, definitely,” I say without shame and loving the way the thrum of his chuckle gives me tingles. It’s been about three days since the clin

-Christian-“Oh, come on, mate! Just an hour or so then you can go again!”I’m on the way to the airport when Jasper calls me asking me to join him and his cousin for a few drinks at his newly opened club. After finishing my long-ass meeting, I was tempted to go back to see Leia, but it was after six, so she would have left already.“I am literally on the way to the airport, asshole; some of us have work to do, you know,” I say while rolling my eyes.“Aw, but I promised Marc you’d be there!” Marc is the cousin Leia’s friend works for, the one who doesn’t swing the way most men do. “Please! You’re my bestest mate and it wouldn’t feel right without you!”Sighing, I pinch the bridge of my nose and try to calm down. “Sorry, Jas. I gotta be in Spain to meet with an investor and I literally just drove onto the tarmac. See you when I get back,” I say while listening to him groaning.“Wanker. Fine, I’ll let you go this time, but we’re definitely getting sloshed when you get back,” he grumbles

-Leia-I visit my sleeping mom again when I’m done with work. She’s been sleeping most of the time and apparently, it’s all the meds for the pain they have her on. Why is she in so much pain now, though? Are the treatments not working?After saying goodbye, I walk out to the waiting car, but then someone calls out my name. I turn to see Oliver running towards me, his blonde hair moving as if he’s on a TV ad for Maybelline. “Hey, long time no see,” I remark when he comes to a stop. “Have you been well?”He smiles. “I’ve been great, love, but I need to speak with you about your mother,” now my heart is trapped in a fist and it’s growing tighter as the seconds tick by. “Is something wrong?” Oliver sighs and pinches the bridge of his nose between his thumb and forefinger. “Lydia is refusing to take the new treatments,” he says and just like that, fate drops a bucket of ice-cold water on me.“What? What do you mean…Why is she refusing them?”“I think that’s something you need to discuss

-Leia-I wake up and stretch, then abruptly stop when I feel a hard body against me… not only that but the thick length of a cock against my butt. That’s when I remember Christian is home. The shower, the washing, the talking, and making plans to take my mom abroad. It wasn’t a dream, he was really here!Grinning, I snuggle more into his embrace, until I hear a groan. “If you wiggle your ass any more than that. I’ll have to do something about it,” Christian says in a voice thick with sleep.“Ha, can't do anything without sorting out that morning breath, Mr. Moore, and I won’t kiss you while mine is rank as well,” I say and I’m about to get out of bed when he pulls me back and gets on top of me.There’s a naughty grin on his face, but he doesn’t say anything…he just nudges my legs open and moves lower.My eyes widened, knowing I'm not wearing panties. “Christian-!” but he shuts me up by running his tongue up the length of my folds. I moan and arch my back from the bed, but he holds me
