Propping himself up on his elbows so I’m still underneath him, he eyes Dan, like he wants to get him to do something, but decides against it. “Um...I may need to explain a few things about me.”

“What does that mean?” My feelings are a little all over the place. What could he mean?

“Let’s go back to the villa, I’ll explain everything there. It’s a little more private.”

A few hours later, I’m sitting in his villa, yes, his villa. And one of many by the sounds of it. I’m a little shocked; his property portfolio on its own is worth billions!

He owns clubs, pubs, hotels, villas, gyms, offices and the press are interested in everything he does. They want to see who he will be with next. Given his reputation with women, he is known as a bit of a ladies’ man. He showed me some recent articles about him. I read the headline but didn’t want to read any more.How did I not know anything about this?I don’t read the papers, or magazines; I find them a bit pointless, it’s never happy news.

“I can promise you, most of it isn’t true, yes I was a bit of a ladies man, but every one of them only wanted one thing…my money.”

“I had no idea. This is impressive, you must have worked so hard to get this.” I’m in awe of him; I knew there was something about him, the way he knows everyone everywhere we go. But this was something else. Then, it finally clicks into place…

“Wait a minute…you own the Manor Hotel?” I ask, standing up, a little annoyed because it hadn’t occurred to me before.

He dips his head but looks at me, and his eyes say it all.

“Yes, I’m sorry, I should have said something, but I knew you would have never taken the job or the cottage if I had told you.”

It suddenly hits me as I pace up and down the room. “My job, you got me my job? You own where I live…”

I almost stutter the words out as they sink in, I can’t believe it. My mind is reeling.

“Oh no..” he says waving his hand in front of me, “don’t do this. I never did it with the intention of being…” I cut him off before he can say anymore.

“It’s okay,” I say, grasping his hands with mine, stopping them from flapping around. “I know you wouldn’t do that, and you only want to help, I get it, but…” Taking a deep breath, I tell him the truth. “I don’t feel comfortable with it, so as of today, I will be paying you rent, no arguments.” I said, putting my hands on my hips like I mean business. When he goes to protest, I just kiss him, taking away his words and making him moan instead.

“Is that how it’s going to work with us?” he says, pulling away slightly. “You just kiss me to get your way?” I kiss him again, this time with a little more passion, and I can feel the smile on his lips.

The House

I brought my workmates back to mine for a drink after work and found that she’s changed the locks and put my house up for sale.

She humiliated me in the worst possible way. That’s all I can see. The laughter in their eyes, that she was able to get one over on me. Me…fucking me, of all people!Does she not know who I am?The rage I feel keeps crawling under my skin, making my blood boil. The things I’m going to do to her when I find out where she’s been hiding, she’ll regret everything. I will find her, if it’s the last thing I do.

There’s no going back now, I don’t know how she did this, but she will never humiliate me again.

Chapter twenty-one

Fire

Jack

We had three amazing days in Ibiza. I barely let her out of the bedroom, I just can’t get enough of her. Every time we have sex, it’s like the first time all over again, only better. It blows my mind and so does she.

Everything she does, I can’t help but watch her, the way she moves, the way she listens, the way she is, she’s just beautiful inside and out, and so god damn sexy. I have a hard time concentrating whenever she’s around; my mind instantly goes to my dick and how I can make her scream my name. Even when she isn’t around, I think of what she’s doing, what we could be doing together instead of working. It’s like I’m a horny teenager again.

When the others went home after the stag and hen do, it was just the four of us, myself, Millie, Em and Dan, and that was how I liked it. I know who I can trust and count on in that group, everyone else I always had my suspicions about. Somehow, things always get leaked to the media, like the other night. When I taught Jane a little lesson, someone snapped a picture of meand Millie. And when that got released a few days later, it was Dan that found out first.

“Jack, got a minute?” Dan pops his head in the door with a worried look on his face.

“Yeah sure, what’s up?”

“Shit has just hit the fan, that picture of you and Millie. It’s all over the internet, they want to know who your latest conquest is, and why they seem so special to have them as part of your private party,” I knew it would happen, but I hate to think of the ramifications for Millie.

“Show me.” Coming round to my side of the desk, Dan types in my name and up pops the picture with the headline, ‘Who is she?’ It’s me on top of Millie, saying something into her neck while she looks up, enjoying what we’re doing. It’s not the best quality but you see it’s her. And it pisses me off.

“What do you wanna do?” Dan says as he sits on the other side of my desk. “Do you think she will be okay with it? I know you told her about it all, but they can be well…nasty sometimes.”
