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

"Do you like it?" Birdy asked from behind Kit as she examined herself in her closet mirror. The dress she was modeling wasn't in her typical style but Birdy had convinced her to give it a try - a fun, little beaded number.Kit turned around and sighed with a frown. "I'm sorry Birdy, I'm just somewhere else today. Maybe we should postpone - I'm just browsing after all."Birdy placed a supportive hand on Kit's elbow and guided her to the nearest seat. "You do seem rather distracted. Do you want to talk about it?"Kit looked at Birdy with uncertainty but nodded hesitantly. She didn't know if she could trust Birdy with her personal feelings but she needed to talk to someone before her head exploded.The two women sat down on the settee in Kit's closet and Kit took a few minutes to collect her thoughts. She looked at Birdy and took a deep breath, preparing herself to get vulnerable with someone she didn't know well."Okay," Kit started, wondering how much she could tell Birdy without s

"Okay! Listen up ladies, I left my man at home to come and be with you. There will be no moping on this trip," Gemma stated firmly as she looked the other three women in the eyes, one at a time.She was standing in front of the small party on a yacht while the rest of them were sitting on the cushioning in the front, enjoying their drinks. It was wonderfully hot and humid as they sailed along, enjoying the salty sea air. Kit had decided to invite two of her other friends to Gemma's impromptu Miami trip - Veronica and Alexandra. She's been close with them since college and kept in touch as they started their own businesses.Per Gemma's instructions, all the women were in fairly skimpy bikinis and ready to party. Kit had swapped out her braids for her collection of wigs; today, her hair was bone straight and brushing the top of her butt."B*tch please!" Alex laughed in amusement, causing Gemma to smile and wink at her playfully."That was clearly directed at me. So, f*ck you for that

Luca watched lazily from his position, lying reclined on the bed with a drink in hand, as Kit ran around and got ready for her evening. The valet had brought him a drink while she was showering after their - activities. His eyes followed her body appreciatively as she moved around the room.Kit laughed and turned around from the mirror as she fiddled with her earrings. "Stop staring! Your eyes are drilling holes into me."Luca smiled mischievously and ran his eyes down her body slowly before focusing on her eyes again. "I can't help it, you look different with that long, straight hair - I really like it."Kit rolled her eyes with a smile on her face, pleased that he'd complimented her. "Thank you. I'm definitely a bit of a problem when I bust the 24-inch out."Luca looked at her with a cute confused look on his face. Kit walked over to him and dropped a soft kiss on his lips. "You're so cute when you're lost. The 24-inch is the wig you just complimented."Luca's face cleared up in

"Hi," Luca greeted Kit with a beaming grin as she opened the door. She smiled back at him, kind of amused at how happy he seemed to see her."Hi yourself," Kit answered before stepping aside to let him in. Luca stopped and kissed her on the lips quickly as he entered her apartment. The lights in the apartment were set slightly dim, creating an air of intimacy and romance."What's in the shopping bag?" Kit asked curiously as she tried to peek inside to see the contents. Luca laughed and moved the bag out of her reach as he moved into the living area."Wouldn't you like to know?" he said with a grin as he set the bag down and waited for Kit to reach him. She pouted at him and stopped just shy of where he was standing."Awww," Luca laughed slyly. "You're going to sulk now? It's nothing exciting - some takeout and a few bottles of wine."Kit laughed and finally got to peek into the bag. She pulled out a bottle of wine and shook her head. "Did we really need three bottles of wine to ha

Sloane sniffed disdainfully as she looked at the house in front of her, it wasn't really to her taste and she had no doubt the inside was just as tacky. It was a cookie-cutter house, the same as every other one in the neighborhood. Sloane sighed before ringing the doorbell, then waited a few moments before ringing it again. She was about to ring the doorbell for the third time when a disgruntled Maya opened the door."Can I help you?" Maya asked frostily, unimpressed with the impatient stranger on her doorstep."I think we can help each other actually," Sloane answered with a cold smile. "May I come in?"Maya eyed her distrustfully. "How can you possibly help me?"Sloane tilted her head and narrowed her eyes slightly. "You don't want your daughter dating Luca Brooks. I can make that happen."Maya looked at Sloane blankly for a minute before stepping aside and gesturing for the young woman to enter."Please follow me to my office," Maya said as she led Sloane down the hallway t
