A One Night Stand To Remember Chapter 63: Drama Is A Donovan Thing
Sapphire's POV"That Sophia sounds like a menace," Jamila commented, her eyes fixed on the clothes rack. "She's really something, huh?"I exhaled and grazed my hair with my finger subconsciously, glancing away, "You have no idea."We were out shopping for clothes, courtesy of my 'darling' husband who had been so kind enough to give me his credit card to do as I pleased with it. It was some sort of bribery, of course, for leaving me all alone. After he'd left with Sophia, he came back later in the evening and apologized for leaving like that. He seemed to know how to apologize more often these days.It was pointless to keep being mad at him so I let it go but it didn't mean I was going to jump into his arms and kiss him after what had transpired. Eric explained everything to me when he got back but frankly, I wasn't really paying that much attention. I was trying so hard to drown out my anger at Sophia. But I did grab a few things. He told me something about her boyfriend, (that's righ
A One Night Stand To Remember Chapter 64: The Jewel Thief Who Wasn't
Sapphire's POVI felt blood drain from my face as I struggled to find the words to defend myself. How could this have happened? I hadn't even seen the necklace, let alone taken it. What the hell was going on? Panic clawed at my chest while I stared at the necklace in Mrs Donovan's grasp, searching for an explanation but nothing came."You sneaky little thief!" Eric's mother boomed, stroking her jewellery. "Why am I not surprised at your despicable behaviour? You're a lowlife after all, a half-baked wannabe. You'd do anything to get a taste of the good life. As if trapping my son wasn't enough, you had the effrontery to steal from me.""No! I didn't...I swear I didn't take anything! I didn't steal that. I have no idea how it got in my purse! You have to believe me. I'm innocent!" I finally found my voice, breaking my silence.Patricia scoffed, "First you were going on and on about not knowing anything concerning my diamond necklace. Now that you've been proven to be a thief in front of
A One Night Stand To Remember Chapter 65: Don't Mess With His Tigress
Eric's POVThe very minute I stepped into the godforsaken designer store, I knew for a fact that something was off because I felt it deep within my bones. The aura of the place was just too thick with what I perceived to be tension and a ton of crap. I walked further inside, my eyes flickering all over the place only to see my tigress, cornered and being dragged away like some criminal.Fucking hell! How dare they?There she was, my wife, putting up a goddamn fight, caught between two meatheads. Their beefy arms were hauling her off to God knows where, like she's some piece of trash they can just toss around! Heat flushed my neck, a wildfire of rage spreading under my skin. Every muscle in my body tensed, coiling like a spring, itching to launch at those bastards.How dare they manhandle her, my tigress, with their grubby, ape-like paws?Sapphire's face was as pale as death itself and those little tears rolling down her cheeks made something inside me snap. I never liked seeing women
A One Night Stand To Remember Chapter 66: Momzilla vs. Eric: The Epic Showdown
Eric's POVMy mother's glare was frosty but her usual poise was cracked by the situation which had now spiralled out of her control. Her nostrils flared like they belonged to a bull ready to charge through a wall and her blood red lips twisted into a nasty snarl but she was obviously cornered. With the evidence now questionable, her credibility was slipping away as fast as the crowd's whispers were growing, faster than gossip spread in a high school locker room.The manager's stupid face turned a shade paler, if that was even possible. His skin was like delicate china about to crack under pressure. I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy seeing the son of a bitch squirm. He'd think twice before pulling a stunt like this ever again with anyone else. I saw his Adam's apple bob as he swallowed hard. Sweat poured down his skin, his breathing becoming heavier by each passing minute. The audience of onlookers was silent, watching intently while waiting for the next act in this absurd theatre.
A One Night Stand To Remember Chapter 67: A Partner To Always Count On
Sapphire's POVEric drove me home and the ride, like most of our rides together, was dead silent. The difference this time was that we weren't silent because we felt awkward or because we were unsure of what to say to each other. We weren't quiet because we were angry or upset with each other. The silence was just there because we were still trying to process everything that happened. The weight of the events was just too heavy and it hung between us like a dense fog, flooding both our minds.Jamila was seated at the back and just like us, she didn't say anything either. Not a single word. And while we were leaving the store, she had rushed back to pack up all of the stuff that we bought. Classic Jamila. If things hadn't been so bad, if we hadn't been shaken by the day's madness, I was pretty sure that she would have been hurling insults at the store now. And she would have made a bunch of nasty comments about Patricia and, like Eric had called them, her minions. She never would have
A One Night Stand To Remember Chapter 68: I Love You, Eric
Sapphire's POV"Is there something else you need, tigress?" Eric asked, moving an inch closer to where I stood facing him.Tigress. The name felt honeyed in his tongue, in his deep and gruff voice. Although I never admitted it to him and probably never would, I loved it when he called me that. I'd always had. It made me feel special, made my belly tingle with heat and had me all fluffy inside. The worst or best thing it ever did to me was make my hormones rage and make me involuntarily wet my panties a little.Eric was always so charming, so hot, so goddamn irresistible. Everything about him exuded sensuality and sex, his looks and physique screamed "Worship me". From the start, I had been drawn to him because of his tremendous sex appeal and for the longest time, I had been in denial. And now, it wasn't just his sexiness that pulled me closer to him and made me want to be with him. It was so much more than that now.I was in love with him and I wanted him to know.How could I not be
A One Night Stand To Remember Chapter 69: Eric's Love Wake-Up Call
Eric's POVI woke up, my head slightly spinning with a feeling like I had been hit by a car but in a really good way. Actually, it was the kind of ache that said, "Damn, you lived last night."I realized that I was butt naked, with Sapphire just as bare, curled up against me, her skin still damp from the marathon we had pulled in the bathtub. The sheets were a mess and my tigress was still sleeping in my arms, her breathing calm and soft like a gentle autumn breeze.I chuckled as images from last night's escapade flooded my mind. We had really spent the entire freaking night making love in the tub, of all places and she had dozed off right there, in my arms with my cock still buried deep inside of her. I had carried her to the bed after a while and that was how we called it a night. But that didn't stop me from showering her body with kisses and fondling her all over.I'd have made love to her some more if she hadn't been so tired and sore from my thrusts and all. I lost count of the n
A One Night Stand To Remember Chapter 70: Crispy Bacon, Crispier Revelations
Eric's POVAfter finally admitting to myself that I was hopelessly in love with Sapphire, I felt a weight lift off my shoulders. She was still asleep, looking peaceful and utterly beautiful. I wanted to do something special for her, something I'd never done before—make her breakfast in bed before I told her how much I fucking loved her. The idea had me grinning like an idiot. But there was one little problem. I didn't know shit about cooking.Still, I was going to give it a shot. How hard could it be anyway? I had faced down boardrooms and negotiated million-dollar deals in my sleep. I had earned my first billion dollars without a dime from my family. Cooking should be a piece of cake. I slipped on a shirt and sweatpants. I gave my tigress one last kiss on her forehead before tiptoeing out of the bedroom.I strode into the kitchen and damn, I'd never realized how foreign this place was to me than the surface of Mars. The plan was simple: scrambled eggs, bacon and toast. Tigress was go
