|||||||||||||||||||||Xander had kept his promise.Tomorrow, it was my turn to keep mine.I had spent the last few days in a daze, trying to process the whirlwind of emotions and the sudden shift in my life.And I had to navigated the situation with Sky. Deal with everything. Make sure that he was fine.Xander had rented out an apartment for him with a guardian, deeming it better than letting my brother stay at the dorms where someone had evidently screwed him over.It was a lot to process.And tomorrow, I had to go see Mathewson King.But before that, there was one thing that I needed to do. One thing that I hadn't done yet - tell Dave.I had avoided his calls and texts, but I knew that I could not keep avoiding him forever.I had to face him. I had to tell him the truth.Well, all the truth that I could tell him.Xander had given me no way out - the contract was not signed yet but as soon as the sun rose at the station last week, one of Carlson's associates had shown up with a non-d

|||||||||||||||||||||"I am really not in the mood for this right now, Xander." I sighed as I followed him into his apartment.Xander had insisted that we spend some time together, get some homework done before meeting Mathewson tomorrow."You're going to have to deal with it." He said as he closed the door behind us.I glared at him. I had to remind myself that it was not like I felt in the mood to work with him at the office as well, but I still did it for the pay. This was no difference.Back then I slaved away for him forty hours a week - sometimes working overtime. Now, I was going to work for him twenty-four-seven.And what a boss he was."When are you moving in?" He asked out of nowhere. "Excuse me?" What on earth was he talking about?"Am I the only one smart enough to think that it would not be believable at all if my fiancé stayed separately from me?" He was talking to me in his most condescending tone - as if I was a petulant child who needed to be explained the tiniest bi

|||||||||||||As soon as my lips touched hers, I was finished.Her sweet taste was like a hit of the most potent drug, making me crave more.Her lips were soft, and she tasted faintly of mint.For a moment, she was frozen, allowing me to explore her mouth, but then she reacted. By biting down on my tongue."Ow!" I recoiled, tasting blood.River glared up at me, her eyes sparkling with anger and defiance. "Back off, Xander!"I smirked despite the sting from her teeth. "Feisty as ever."Her cheeks were flushed and she looked ready to spit fire. "We had a deal. No intimacy!""Well, we have not signed the contract yet." I shrugged but I decided this was enough play for now. I got off of her. "And right now, you are single, I am single, anything can happen between us and there will be nothing wrong with it as long as it is consensual."I got up and walked away from the bed, leaving her to stare after me, her mouth gaping open."You're not serious." Her voice was a mix of shock and indignat

|||||||||||||||||||||"I am going to puke!" I exclaimed as I walked up the stairs of the King's mansion, rubbing my chest."You will be fine!" Xander threw his arm around my waist, making me turn to shoot a glare at him."Hands off." I hissed."Public display of affection, remember?" He winked and then added, "Besides, Grandpa loves you. I am sure if he is to object to this marriage, it will be because he thinks I am not worthy of you and never the other way around."His words sent a shiver down my spine. Did Mathewson really think I was that amazing? Doesn't that mean that I will be breaking his trust in the worst possible way if the truth was ever to come out?But as we approached the grand doors, my thoughts of Dave and our break up were pushed aside, replaced with the dread of meeting Xander's grandpa again.It was easier to meet Mathewson as Xander's PA and the woman he felt was his comrade in having to deal with Xander's shenanigans. But to meet him as Xander's fiancé was unnerv

|||||||||||||||||||||"What we are doing is wrong, Xandy!" I exclaimed as soon as the front door closed behind us. "Your grandfather will be heartbroken when he finds out the truth behind our marriage. This ruse!"Xander turned to me, his eyes stormy. "Would you rather see me lose everything and Skylar's future go down the drain? This is the only way!"I took a deep breath, trying to compose myself. "I know," I murmured. "But the weight of this lie is heavy on my conscience."Xander's expression darkened. "Is that it or does it have something to do with the so-called collateral damage you were talking about yesterday?"I was confused. "What are you talking about?" I asked, and then it clicked. "You think I am regretting my decision to break up with Dave and is hence making up excuses to get out of this marriage?"I glared at him.How could he think that about when my brother's life was on the line? I was not the kind of person to choose my happily ever after over my baby brother's fut

|||||||||||||||||||Xander.Xander King.The man who walked into and out of boutiques and stores like they were a drive through, spent four freaking hours in the store with me just to pick out clothes for me.What was he playing at?He did not looked bored for a second while I was exhausted from having to change in and out of all of his selections.If he was so into shopping, then why the hell did this asshole make me do all the shopping for him and his flings?I glared at him. "Why are you enjoying this so much?" I hissed.Xander's eyes sparkled with amusement. "Because I like dressing up my future wife. You have something against that, wifey?"My eyes widened and I felt my face heat up at the term he had used to address me.Daniel, though he was facing away from us, squealed and even though he covered it up with a cough, he knew he was getting excited at Xander's antics."Why do you have to call me that?" I whispered, trying to keep my voice down.Xander leaned in, his breath warm a

||||||||||||||"Four times." Xander growled. "You are right. I need you in a bed."I took a step back."No." I said.It was one word, but it was firm.Xander's eyes bore into me, the hunger in his gaze unmistakable. "You don't mean that," he murmured, his voice thick with lust."Yes, I do," I replied, my voice shaky. "This isn't right.""What isn't right?" He asked.I was surprised.Did he not at all understand what was not right with this situation?"Everything." I whispered, my heart racing as I backed away from him.Xander's expression turned cold, his eyes dark. "I will give you time until the wedding. Whatever stupid feelings you are harboring towards that ex of yours, get rid of it by then. Because there is no way in hell I am going without sex for the next two years." He turned around. "You have to choose the lingerie. I will wait in the private room."He started walking towards it but I stopped him."You can always sleep with someone else."The words left my mouth before I had

|||||||||||||I did my lingerie shopping robotically and had Daniel come up and pack the purchase and had them sent downstairs before letting Xander know.He didn't ask any questions but Daniel wanted to know if we fought."He wanted me to get that gift-wrap lingerie." I shrugged.Daniel squealed like a school girl. He was loving the chemistry between us, he told me.What chemistry?The only thing going on between us was nuclear physics.Xander was waiting for me outside, his arms folded over his chest as he leaned against the car, looking every bit the CEO of the company, even though we were in a department store."Ready?" He asked, not even bothering to look at me."As ready as I will ever be." I said, my voice flat.He nodded and opened the car door for me. I slid into the passenger seat, my mind racing with a million thoughts.Xander slammed the door shut and slid into the driver's seat.The engine roared to life and he pulled out of the store front.I stared out of the window, my

||||||||||||"That quick?" Peter laughed as he slapped my back. "Can't perform without the blue pill?"My eyes narrowed and I was about to punch him in the face but he ducked out of my reach and went to hug MY fiancé."Welcome to the family, Sterling," Peter said with a wink.I felt a surge of annoyance."You are not my family, asshole." I told my best friend, pulling him by the ear away from my fiancé."Ow, ow, ow!" Peter complained, laughing as he tried to free himself. "Okay, okay, I'm going! I just came to ask what the hell was going on but I got the answer as soon as I walked in."I looked over at River whose face turned red immediately.I liked that color on her cheeks.I wanted to see that color on her other cheeks as well. But for that, this fucker needed to leave and she needed to eat."What's for dinner?" Peter asked."I thought you were leaving?" I glared at him."I am, I am!" Peter held his hands up in surrender. "But I can't leave without knowing if your chef has made ste

||||||||||||||I carried her inside and deposited her on the dining table.Her eyes widened in shock as I pushed her legs apart, tearing her skirt in the process. "Xandy!""Too late, baby!" I laughed as I ripped the rest of her skirt and exposed her turquoise lace panties. "Now it's time for punishment."Her eyes were wide with shock, but she didn't fight as I pushed her legs wider apart and slipped my hand under her panties."You can't do this," she murmured, her voice trembling slightly as I felt her slick heat."Oh, but I can," I said, stroking her gently. "And I will."Her breath hitched as my fingers delved into her wetness. She was soaked and ready.I pulled my fingers out, making a show of licking her wetness off my lips, silently telling just how wet she was for me."You taste good," I murmured, my eyes hooded as I took in her flushed face, the way her chest was heaving with every breath she took."Take off all your clothes." It was a demand, an order.River's eyes widened. "H
