“Well, anyway, I better get going, since I’ve now got a day to rearrange because you woke up on the wrong side of the bed. Time is of the essence.”
I didn’t wake up on the wrong side, I woke up in the wrong bed.
My mind flashes to Ariana, and I shake it off quickly.Don't go there again.
“Fine. I want to see the report by the time I board the plane.”
“Yes, sir.”
I hang up on her sarcastic tone, and I’m about to throw the phone on the bed when I get a text.
Are you ignoring me, Mr. B?
I rub my chin as I crack my neck from side to side.
She texted me last night, thanking me for the earrings. I didn’t reply.
She also didn’t mention anything about our kiss.
I’m an asshole. Now she’s going to feel the wrath of it, because if I don’t, I’m going to make a very bad mistake and we both know it.
But I shouldn’t ignore her. It isn’t fair. She may not be totally innocent in all of this, after all, she kissed me just fine all on her own, but I know that I can seduce women very easily.
The trouble is, I wasn’t even trying to do that. If I had, she’d have been mine the second I decided I wanted her. And I didn’t know that until she kissed me.
I sigh, not wanting to let this moment go, but I know I have to. For both our sakes.
Sorry, Ari. I’ve been busy with work. I have to cut my trip short, unfortunately.
A reply bounces back in record time.
That’s a shame. I wanted to talk to you, about last night.
Oh, holy shit. Here we go.
I know that she probably feels like she was under duress, since they’d downed three bottles of France’s finest champagne after all. Yet she has nothing to feel embarrassed about.
That isn’t necessary, Ariana.
She can make of that what she will, but I put it down to alcohol, on her part. On mine, it was sheer lust.
So, I can’t see you?
I don’t think that’s a good idea
I run a hand through my hair.
The real question at hand is why I even care. She’s just another broad, right?
As soon as the thought comes, I dismiss it. Ariana is not like any other woman.
I step outside and dive into the lap pool and do ten quick laps without stopping. I really do love this place. It’s a shame.
I step out and grab a towel as I glance up at the time, it’s then the telephone rings.
I go over to answer it.
“Sir, it’s Sergi from the front desk. I have a Miss Michaels asking to visit you at your suite, Sir. She’s quite insistent.”
