All Chapters of The Billionaire's Daring Kitten : Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

RUBY'S POVPulling out of me, Dominic lifted me in his arms and took me towards the hot tub itself. He set me down and my legs shook slightly. I stared at the hot tub in hesitation. I wasn't about to step into a large tub of water after I'd just showered, but then the thought of fucking this man while surrounded with so much warmth was inviting.“I’m not letting you out of this.” He said as if he'd read my mind, and pointed to the bubbling water that was probably as hot as the blood pumping through his veins.“Then, by all means, let’s do it.” I inhaled in courage, then stepped into the hot tub."Oh, fucking God!"Dominic laughed as he followed me into the tub. "That has to be the first time I've heard you curse."I let out a high-pitched laugh as I felt a jet of water against my belly and back. “Water is hitting me from every angle.”He smiled without teeth. "Do you like it?""I do!" I squealed again as water hit somewhere between my legs. I did like it, as long as I didn’t allow ugl

RUBY'S POVThe streets of Milan were alive with energy, and I was enjoying every second of it. For the first time in weeks, I felt like I could breathe. Even the thought of Gabriel was like a fading memory.Dominic and I walked side by side, and though his face was blank, I could see the amusement in his eyes every time I reacted to something.“Oh my God, look at that!” I exclaimed, pointing to a street artist sketching portraits near a cathedral. “Dom, do you think he’d draw me?”He glanced at the artist’s work, then at me. “Only if he has enough time to get all your details right.”I laughed but ignored his words, skipping down the street instead.Dominic guided me effortlessly through the streets. He didn’t need a map; he seemed to know Milan like the back of his hand. Eventually, we found ourselves in front of a small, tucked-away shop. The window display was filled with glass figurines that drew my eye.“Let’s go in,” I said, already stepping toward the door.“You’re like a magpi

DOMINIC'S POVIt was the Sunday after our trip to Milan, and we were back in my Seattle mansion. A plate of toast sat in front of me, beside my signature coffee. Beside the plate was my laptop, open to a Skype video call page.I bit into a corner of my toast as I spoke. "Go on, Matthew.""A lot of work was left unfinished before your trip, Mr Rutherford." Matthew notified me. "I was wondering when we'd be able to get down to it.""When I come to the office." I dropped my toast and took a sip of my coffee. "Which will be later this week; Wednesday, most probably."Gregory opened his mouth to speak again, but was silenced by the sound of footsteps coming down the staircase behind me."Would you like us to reschedule a meeting for you, Mr Rutherford?" Another worker named Mrs Bellick asked. "It seems you have a visitor.""I do." I replied. "I will inform my secretary to schedule a physical meeting on Wednesday and send you all the memo. Thank you."Without waiting for a reply from them,

RUBY'S POVThe moment I stepped out of Dominic’s house, tears began to fall from my eyes, and I didn’t bother wiping them away. Let them fall. Maybe they’d take some of the anger and hurt with them. I hated this. I hated feeling so exposed and so raw. Why was it so easy for the people I cared about to keep secrets from me? Was I the problem?The streets were busy. People were bustling past me as I walked aimlessly, clutching my phone like a lifeline. I didn’t care about the odd stares I got from strangers. My thoughts were a mess, tangled between how much I cared for Dominic and how tired I was of being the one left in the dark.First Gabriel, now him. How many times would I let someone shut me out before I learned my lesson?I kept walking until I realized I took nothing from Damien's house, no bag or clothes, not even my favorite lip balm. Just my phone. Great.I pulled it out and stared at the screen, debating my next move. Calling Dominic was out of the question. The thought of li

RUBY'S POV"It's probably nothing," I muttered to myself.I tried to shake off the strange encounter and focus on the task at hand. Lilac would probably roll her eyes at me if I came back empty-handed after agreeing to this shopping trip.Stepping into the shirts section, I began flipping through a rack of vintage round necks. A particular dark green one caught my eye, and I reached for it. Just as I was pulling it off the hanger, I collided with someone.“Sorry....” I apologized and looked up. My words froze in my throat when I saw him.It was the same man in all-black.His face broke into that same gap-toothed smile. “Well, fancy meeting you here again.”At this point, I was already growing annoyed. “Yeah, what a coincidence,” I muttered and stepped back.“I swear I’m not following you,” he said with a chuckle, raising his hands as if in defense. “But it’s kind of funny, don’t you think? Bumping into each other like this.”I forced a tight smile, gripping the shirt I’d just picked o
