All Chapters of Her Sunset Billionaires: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

RobI was nervous when I knocked on Mandy's door to pick up Simone, partly because I was hoping not to run into Mandy. She intimidated the hell out of me. But it was also partly because I hadn't been with Simone in a while.Nick and Michael were such surprisingly cool guys, but I could help but wonder where I fit into the mix. What did Simone see in me that made her like me as much as she liked them? The goal of the night was to show her what I had to offer.She opened the door and smiled widely at me. She definitely didn't look like she was dreading the evening. At least this time she wasn't crying."Hi," she said shyly.She took a step toward me and wrapped her arms around my neck. She was wearing tall shoes that almost put her and me at almost the same level. My arms easily wrapped around her waist, not having to reach as low as usual.She leaned away just enough to capture my lips in hers. Most of the time, she was the one initiating everything. Tonight, I was going to

SimoneI looked at my clock again and groaned. It was much earlier than I wanted it to be, plus my sexy weekend was officially over. I'd have to go back into the office and face whatever nastiness was happening there. And I wasn't scheduled to see any of the guys until the weekend.They said they wanted to give me alone time, but I didn't want alone time. I didn't want to be away from any of them. I left Nick sleeping while I showered and got ready for work. He'd just wrapped up a big movie and wasn't scheduled for his next one for a few months. He deserved to sleep in as long as he wanted. I was, obviously, very jealous.When I was finished blow drying my hair, I came back into the bedroom to find my bed empty. I didn't like that at all. I walked out to the kitchen to find Nick brewing us both coffee and making me eggs. He looked sheepish when I caught him."It's all I can really make," he said with a shrug.I walked over and kissed him tenderly, honored that he would thi

SimoneI kissed Michael goodbye and left his house late at night. The very last thing I wanted was to be seen in public wearing nothing but his jacket. I could already imagine Crystal printing out those pictures and plastering them all over the office.Thankfully, both Michael's house and mine were free of paparazzi at that late hour. I drove home in silence, my heart feeling heavy. When I woke up in the morning, the same feeling overwhelmed me. It took a long time to place it, but I finally realized it was grief. I was grieving the fact that Michael was leaving for three days.How ridiculous! I'd known him for a matter of months, and we'd spent more than three days apart since then. I couldn't believe I was so sad to not see him for a few days.I slouched into work, feeling weighed down by the sadness. I knew he was likely already on his plane, headed toward some city I hated. It didn't matter where he was going; anywhere away from me was a horrible place.I made myself c

SimoneFor the second time, I woke up in an empty bed. At least this time, I knew Rob was in the shower and not across town somewhere getting ready to go on a trip. I still hadn't heard from Michael since he left, but at the moment, I chose to focus on Rob.Sweet, sexy, nerdy Rob, who had a secret wild side. I was already thinking about how to make him cut loose again when I realized I was wasting a prime opportunity. I hopped out of bed and joined him in the shower.He looked me up and down appreciatively before pinning me against the wet wall. Our bodies slid together under the hot spray, and I was desperate for him to touch me. I'd have to leave for work soon, but we had time."F*ck me against the wall," I breathed out, but he didn't immediately agree like he usually did. "Rob," I whined."Only if you do the thing again," he said with a mischievous look in his eye.I was really turning him into a freak. It was sexy as hell.We had the hottest shower sex of my life, in

MichaelI waited anxiously for Simone, suddenly feeling wide awake. I got on my phone and found something delicious for our dinner. As much as I was ready to get right to it, I wanted to make sure we had time to talk and reconnect after my trip.I'd missed her so much, and it was for so much more than her body. I missed the way she laughed and smiled and was so f*cking confident in herself. I missed the way her nose wrinkled when she was concentrating. I missed the way her hair fell over her shoulder.And I missed her humor. I missed the way she challenged me. Maybe I wasn't ready to say the words out loud, but I knew I was in love with her. I'd never felt this way about anyone before.It was overwhelming and a little intimidating. How could I be in love with someone who didn't completely belong to me? At the same time, though, I didn't care. I'd rather have a little of her than nothing at all. I'd settle for one piece of her heart if it meant she considered me at all.I coul
