I adjusted the pillow behind me, repositioning the blanket so it covered my neck. “Like there’s a knife in my back and it’s twisting around and around and around.”He took off his shoes and climbed over me, resting across the open space, where he pulled me against his chest. “I don’t have answers yet, but I gave them forty-eight hours.”I was silent while I let that number digest. “This is going to be the longest two days of my life.”He rubbed across my back, kissing the top of my head. “What can I do to make you feel better?” He exhaled, his air heating my hair. “Whatever it is, I’ll make it happen.”I looked up at his face, my eyes pleading with his. “Can you make me disappear?”Thirty-TwoDominick“When I asked you to make me disappear,” Kendall said from the edge of the pool, overlooking the lapping waves of the Atlantic, “I definitely wasn’t expecting this.”Keeping her locked in my house without any fucking sunlight wasn’t going to be healthy. She needed air, relaxation, a pla

“I don’t understand.” She searched my eyes. “Why?”“Because it’s showing me how tenacious you are. Do you know how sexy that is?” I gently kissed her. “You had your ass kicked emotionally, but now, you’re ready to kick someone’s ass, and I can see that in your eyes.”Her teeth sank into her lip as she stared at me. “Man, I’m positively crazy about you.”“Baby …” I whispered, about to fucking devour her at this table.But I couldn’t.The chef’s assistant appeared to refill our waters, removing some of the plates we were no longer using and the homemade bread. “I hope you’ve saved room for dessert,” he said. “The chef has prepared his own spin on cake balls.” He smiled before he went back inside.I lifted Kendall from her seat and set her on my lap, rubbing the center of her stomach. “Do you still have room?”“For cake balls? Of course.” She winked. “It’s really adorable that you had him make that dessert—along with the rest of dinner. The fact that he served all my favorites didn’t go

I sipped on my champagne while she ate another one, licking her fingers.“I’m beyond stuffed.”“You did well.”She laughed. “An appetite isn’t something I ever lack.”“Another thing I like about you.”I lifted her from my lap and set her on the deck. “Come with me.”She followed me across the patio and down to the dock.When we reached the beach, I instructed, “Leave your shoes here.”I slipped out of mine and waited for her to be done. Then, I took her onto the sand where the waves met.I faced her, holding one of her hands against my heart, wrapping my other arm around her waist. “Dance with me, Kendall.”A smile moved across her gorgeous face. “But there’s no music.”I dipped down to kiss her, tasting the chocolate on her lips, the island scent on her skin. “Just listen to the waves.”She moved to the beat of the Atlantic, and every exhale drew her closer to me.Thirty-ThreeKendallMy cell had been on silent since before we even left for Bimini. Periodically throughout the day, I

“I literally can’t believe what I’m hearing right now.”“Were you the one who sent the photos? No. Were you the one who tried to ruin my life? Not directly. But you’re not taking a single bit of accountability here. You’re throwing the facts at me like you’re doing me a fucking favor and washing your hands of this mess. Well, guess what. You don’t deserve to walk away innocently; you don’t get the fucking medal of honor for reaching out to me.”Something was tearing through my chest, and I couldn’t stop it. This wasn’t a PMS beast that reared its claws every month. This was years of frustration that had peaked since I’d moved to LA, and I couldn’t hold it in any longer.“You’re a jealous brat—that’s what you are. I’ve done nothing but support you, to the point where I even came to work for you. And the moment I got even the tiniest bit of attention, you lost your mind. If you were secure, if you weren’t dripping in self-doubt, then you would have realized I was never trying to hurt yo

Her eyes finally connected to mine. “I just don’t know what to say.”“Don’t worry, baby; we’ll figure it out.” I checked my watch. “But we should head inside; the meeting is going to start in a few minutes.”She followed me into the home office, where multiple monitors were set up on the large desk. I pulled another chair around, so we could sit beside each other, and I logged in to the network.I held the mouse over the Connect button. “Are you ready?”“I think so.” She slowly inhaled. “Yes.”When the video turned on, I saw a boardroom, the same men as our prior meeting sitting around it, Shane there as well.“Dominick, Miss Roy, thank you for joining us,” Ted said.He then made the introductions, so Kendall knew the names of his team.Details that made no goddamn difference because the result was still the same.They had fucked up.And now, they were going to pay.“We would first like to offer our sincerest apologies,” Ted continued. “We understand that you must feel extremely viola

Because every motherfucker around that table knew I was right.“Do you have anything else to say?” I inquired. “Any other apologies you’d like to offer while we’re still on the line?”Shane took a couple of minutes to say a few words to Kendall, but I didn’t listen—none of what he was saying was important.What I thought about were ways I could milk the settlement because money wasn’t what Kendall was after. She needed to be coddled, for the world to know this wasn’t her fault and she was not the girl the Celebrity Alert had portrayed her as.“Dominick,” Ted said once Shane finished, “we’ll be anticipating your correspondence. Thank you both for taking the time to speak with us.”Kendall thanked him, and I disconnected the call.“How do you feel?” I asked as I turned to her.She shrugged, shaking her head. “I honestly don’t know. They took responsibility—that’s all I can really ask for, I guess.”“No, baby, you can ask for a hell of a lot more than that.”“But they’ve already done mor

The roughness of his face kept me in the moment.“And it’s tight … goddamn it.”My head sank into the pillow as he slid in deeper, sucking my nipple into his mouth.“I’ve been thinking about this all day.” He moved to the other side, licking the peak back and forth. “How hard I was going to fuck you.”“I can’t believe you waited this long to have me.”“I was going to wake you in the middle of the night, surprising you with my mouth.” He smiled as he looked up at me. “But if you’re not sleeping, I can’t do that.”“I need this.” I swallowed while he buried the rest of himself inside me. “I need you.”He held the back of my head and thrust forward. “Then, I won’t make you wait for more.”The arch of his hips sent a burst through me, a second wave as he reared back and repeated the same motion.As the air came in through my lips, the emotions that had been keeping me awake released, my chest loosening, the strain in my stomach letting go.“Fuck yes.” He plunged all the way in. “You have t

The quaking instantly ignited in my stomach, tugging at that bliss, heightening it.My body was no longer mine; it was as though there were a string inside that controlled the sparks and flutters and ripples and he was yanking on it with all his strength.“Show me, Kendall. Show me how fucking good it feels.”I couldn’t shout.I couldn’t moan.All I could do was circle around him, losing myself.His teeth grazed the back of my shoulder. “Yes, baby.” His nipping was the pain that I needed. “Fuck that cock.”Spasms completely shattered my body, and when I couldn’t move a second more, he took over, clenching an arm around my stomach, pounding his dick into me.“Mine.” He aligned our fingers, guiding them across my clit. “All fucking mine.”His dominance floated through me, every feeling possessed by him, and I held on, watching as the orgasm rocked through me.I sank my fingers into his thighs, melting from his penetration, keeping my screams in, feeling them echo through my body until t

“I think I took half the paint off the wall,” I joked, searching for my breath.He laughed, a sound so yummy that I had to kiss him. There was a sweetness on his skin and a saltiness from the sweat.“I know how you like it … and I didn’t hold back.”“I didn’t want you to.”He moved us over to the bed, sitting on the edge, holding me just as tightly. The moon let off enough light that I could see his face, knowing his eyes were on mine.“Kendall,” he whispered, our noses brushing, our air mixing, “I love you.” His hands moved to my face, holding me with a strength that filled me with so much emotion.This feeling was different than the orgasms I’d just had, this caused my heart to hammer away in my chest. “Oh God.”I hadn’t been searching for him. He certainly hadn’t been looking for me. And he’d made me work so hard to bring us to this place. But we were here, and I never appreciated anything more.“Dominick, I love you.”Thirty-SixDominick“If you brought me in here to yell at me,

A contract that had been one of the accolades of my career, considering they hadn’t even wanted to hear me mention Daisy’s name when I first got them on the phone.She glanced up at me. “What’s the stipulation?”“I want you to do the right thing.”Her brows rose. “As in?”It pained me how fucking self-centered she was.“Let me spell this out for you …” I moved the second folder to the side of me and clenched my hands together, the anger in my body causing them to twitch. “There are people in your life who would do anything for you, love you unconditionally, who would never in a million fucking years hurt you. Kendall is one of those people.” I paused, letting some of the emotion calm before I fucking exploded.“I have two brothers; both are lawyers. Was I pissed when they enrolled in law school, worried they were going to take away my clients? Hell no. I was thrilled that I would get to share this experience with them, that I would have a team I could trust because there’s no one I ca
