CHAPTER 20
The main door opened and closed quickly and she heard steps approaching the stairs. Finally! Her man was home! She had been waiting for him the entire day, eager to see him, to be with him.
Standing in front of the window, Nevaeh tried to maintain her tranquility while waiting for him to enter the room. But she was anxious to see how he was. Aiden was working a lot lately…
The last few days had been quite busy, since he and Landon were taking care of something pretty important. She would’ve loved to help him, but whatever it was, Aiden never brought it to their bedroom. This was their little slice of heaven. The outside world wasn’t allowed in here.
“Baby?” Nevaeh heard his voice.
“I’m up here, Aiden,” she replied and turned towards the door.

Later, while preparing, images of them making love were still running around Nevaeh's mind. Her entire body was still tingling. What happened was so… unique, so wonderful… so new. Nevaeh had the impression that, for the first time since they were together, they really, absolutely made love. Sweet, passionate, pure love. The way he talked to her, the way he touched her, the way he played with her body… Aiden never did it before. He came close, but he never went over. Like he was being pulled back by some strange, invisible force. And, that day, he finally freed himself.“Baby, are you ready?” she heard Aiden’s voice coming from downstairs. Nevaeh checked the time. There was plenty of it. Didn’t guys understand that there was more to getting ready than just
ADDICTED TO YOU CHAPTER 22
Aiden hated the way Nevaeh stood with her arm wrapped around her waist. His instincts had said letting her go off with her father had been a bad idea. He cared deeply for her but he wasn’t about to shelter her from the truth. “Tell me what exactly, Aiden?” she repeated, still waiting for his answer. “I’m not sure…” he replied. He didn’t know how much information Skyler Belmont already knew. “Let me help you, then… Something about your buying up shares in ‘Nevaeh’s Dresser’ and forcing the family out.” Oh, okay… Skyler’s information was complete. Aiden wondered if he had a leak in his own organization or if the boys at ‘Nevaeh’s Dresser’ had finally gotten smart. “Well, I didn’t buy up the shares. ‘Cargill Investments’ did on behalf of a consortium
ADDICTED TO YOU CHAPTER 23
How could she have been so wrong about Aiden? Nevaeh left the Shedd Aquarium and looked for a cab out front. There wasn’t any… And even if there was, she had no idea where to go now… She had no safe haven… no safety net… no man to go back to… no loving arms to hold her while crying her heart out. That afternoon when she and Aiden made love, Nevaeh could swear that there was something so overwhelming in his eyes, in his voice… something so unique… something that went over the usual love stories she read or knew about… And earlier, when Aiden said he loved her in front of her father, she felt her heart flying out of her chest. The emotion was so out of this world. No one said ‘I love you’ to her… n
ADDICTED TO YOU CHAPTER 24
Aiden went inside the Aquarium, straight to the table he’d reserved for the event, and sat down. But he was scarcely aware of anything going on around him. He knew he should be making plans. Now that Skyler Belmont knew he had enough shares to force him out there was a chance the other man would try to manipulate the stock somehow. But he couldn’t focus on that just now. Where was Nevaeh going? Why had he let her leave like that? What happened was on her too. He just wasn’t willing to give into any kind of ultimatum. It didn’t help that she tried to make him change his mind. The moment she’d entered his life, Aiden knew in his heart he couldn’t have her and the company. But he also knew he wasn’t willing to put an end to his desire of punishing her father. No matter
ADDICTED TO YOU CHAPTER 25
After nearly a week at the Ritz, Nevaeh realized that her old habits were back. She was sleeping maybe two hours a night. No matter how she tried, she couldn’t get comfortable in her sleep and kept rolling over, searching for Aiden. She wished that she could calm the voices in her head. The ones that warned her that maybe she’d overreacted and that she should go back and try one more time to make Aiden see reason. Finally, she got up, wrapped herself in a robe, and went to the windows. While glancing down at the streets, everything came into the picture. She didn’t need to leave Chicago. She needed to find her place here. She realized no matter how hard she ran or how far she moved away, the past would always be with her. The pa
ADDICTED TO YOU CHAPTER 26
Nevaeh heard an insistent pounding at her door. She was back in her old condo and the only people who knew she was there were her father and Blossom since she had come over the first night she came back there. ‘Well, whoever the disturber was maybe he will go away…’ she thought and continued writing on her computer. Still, the pounding increased.“For God’s sake…” she exclaimed while climbing out of her bed and went to open the door, not bothering to put on a robe to cover up an old t-shirt and a pair of shorts. If the person was rude enough to disturb her on a Saturday night, then whoever it was could deal with her bedtime apparel. She yanked open the door.“What do you want at this…?” she snapped before looking up.

He brought his mouth down the mounds of her breasts and sucked in the tightened nipple. She arched her back as he continued to massage the aching nipple, reaching down to hold his head close to her body. Aiden nipped at the swollen bud and then licked over the spot, making another moan escape her body. He switched to the other side, giving her other breast equal attention, before continuing his journey down her body. How he’d missed her… He wanted to explore every single inch of her he’d missed out on over the last few days. He reached her stomach and ran his tongue over the satin skin. When Aiden got lower, towards her core, he stopped for a second and looked at her. Nevaeh was the most beautiful woman he’d ever made lov
ADDICTED TO YOU CHAPTER 28
Their wedding day arrived. None of them wanted to wait too long, considering that 3 days were more than enough to organize a small, private wedding just for them and their families at her father’s estate. Her father’s chauffeur-driven Mercedes arrived promptly at 7 p.m. Nevaeh nervously smoothed her hands down the lines of her white satin wedding dress that belonged to her great-grandmother and was created by a famous French designer in 1955. Her mother wore that dress too and now it was her turn. When he saw his daughter, Skyler cleared his throat and climbed out of the back of the car while Marcus, his driver, stood holding the door open. Nevaeh stood at the top of the steps looking down at her father. Their relationship was still a little awkward but h
