Dream Dominant Collection Chapter 31: Falling Hard
Chapter 31: Falling HardThe soft light of dawn filtered in through the sheers draping the window as Luke slowly became conscious of Bella's soft body cuddled deep into his chest. A completely unexpected feeling of contentment washed over him like a wave, and he sighed deeply. Belatedly, he realized he'd said too much the night before.I love you. What had been in his head? They'd known each other for what, not quite two weeks? I'm an idiot, he thought. Sure, she's beautiful, obviously. And she's smart. And sexy. And funny. And exciting. He had the feeling that he could listen to her all day. And that he could tell her anything. But love?Deep down, he knew. Yes, love. He wanted her to be his. But it was way too early in the game to say so. And experience had taught him to never be the first one to say the words. She'd been asleep, he reasoned to himself. She didn't even hear me. Probably.He kissed her lightly, causing her to stir and they lay there waking up slow
Dream Dominant Collection Chapter 32: Suse
Chapter 32: SuseBella took a seat at the cafe around the corner from the hotel and waited for a text from Luke to tell her that Suse was ready to meet her. As she waited, she made notes, thinking of questions she would ask."Bella! Come on." Surprised, she looked up to see Luke motioning to her. "Suse says she'll meet you. I left her in a bar a couple of blocks from here. Let's hurry before she changes her mind."They made their way up the street to see Suse, who was waiting outside the bar, smoking a cigarette when Luke and Bella strolled up. Bella's arm was locked with Luke's and Suse eyed her cautiously as they approached.Luke gave Suse a bear hug and kissed her on the cheek. "Hey baby, thanks for agreeing to talk to us," Luke said to her."No problem," Suse responded, eyeing Bella coldly.Luke made the introduction. "Suse…Bella."Bella smiled her warmest smile and reached out to shake her hand. "I'm happy to meet you. Luke's told me so much about you. Thank you for se
Dream Dominant Collection Chapter 33: Scared
Chapter 33: ScaredBack at the Toren, they rode up to their floor and entered the suite in silence, Luke torn between his own anger and wondering what Bella was thinking. She was still wearing the hard, closed expression on her face she had after the episode at Suse's.He poured himself a glass of Scotch, then offered one to Bella, and was surprised when she accepted. She tossed it back quickly."That was some good work tonight," Luke offered. "You were able to get Suse to open up to you. That's no small feat.""Hmm, yeah. I'm beat. I'm going to go take a shower," she said quietly.She was headed toward the stairway when she stopped and turned to face him. "You know, that whole thing with Suse's window. The creep-oid?" She avoided his eyes. "When I said I wasn't scared…Well, I was." The last part was a whisper. She left him standing there not quite knowing what to do.Alone in the bedroom, she held herself together while she undressed. She hadn't wanted to admit to Luke, or
Dream Dominant Collection Chapter 34: Rico
Chapter 34: RicoThey awoke gradually the following morning, arms and legs intertwined, and they stayed that way enjoying the warmth of each other. "Good morning, m'lady," Luke said. He kissed her lips gently."I love waking up in your arms," Bella murmured."I love…," Luke began automatically, "um, waking up with you in my arms." He laughed to cover up his discomfort. Careful, Cowboy, he thought to himself.It was too late for breakfast, so they dressed and made their way to the street in search of food truck fare to tide them over until dinner.Eventually they made it to The Bulldog but before they entered the small shop, Luke stopped Bella. "I should warn you that Rico can be a little…handsy. He's a great guy, but just so you know," he said."That's just peachy!" she said, rolling her eyes. She absently reached to rub the bruises on her arm from the night before as they made their way inside.Rico met them by the bar. Luke made the introductions and Bella transformed hersel
Dream Dominant Collection Chapter 35: Exclusive
Chapter 35: ExclusiveLuke and Bella enjoyed a leisurely morning as they got ready for their last day in Amsterdam. Dressed in bathrobes, they breakfasted on an assortment of rolls and pastries, fresh fruit, juice, and coffee delivered by room service. Chatting casually, they made tentative plans for the day, sketching out their ideas on a piece of paper. They had the opening and closing to shoot, and they needed to make sure that there was enough footage for the editing team back in New York.After breakfast, Luke busied himself getting his camera bag ready and Bella went upstairs to get dressed. With his gear set, Luke grabbed their notes and went upstairs, entering the bedroom just as Bella was pulling a white tank top over her head. Never get tired of that view, he thought to himself. Then Luke noticed the bruises on Bella's upper arm. He could just make out distinct finger marks. "What is that? That's not from the other night at Suse's it is?"Bella looked down at her arm
Dream Dominant Collection Chapter 36: Greece
Chapter 36: Greece"Greece?" Bella repeated. A far-off look appeared in her eyes and she smiled in a satisfied kind of way. "I've been to Greece before.""Really?" Luke asked. "It must have been a good experience. So, Mykonos it is."She snapped back to the present and blushed a little. "I've got to get packed and make arrangements," she said.Luke watched her head upstairs, curious about Bella's reaction to their next assignment. He smiled to himself as he followed along behind her.Bella quickly made reservations at the Cavo Tagoo Hotel, choosing the Honeymoon Suite with its private infinity pool overlooking the sparkling blue water of the Aegean Sea."Again, don't get hung up in the name of the suite," she reasoned. "It's just that it's the nicest one available on such short notice. That, and we're filming a show, so they want to put their best foot forward." She showed the pictures to Luke."Looks amazing," he commented. "So, how private is this infinity pool?" His mind
Dream Dominant Collection Chapter 37: Arriving in Mykonos
Chapter 37: Arriving in MykonosLanding smoothly on Mykonos, they were treated to a radiantly sunny afternoon capped by a sparkling blue cloudless sky. They moved effortlessly through the customs checkpoint and collected Bella's bags at the luggage carousel."Ever think of simplifying, m'lady," Luke joked, gesturing with his duffle bags."In your dreams, Cowboy!" she retorted."Oh, baby girl, my dreams are made of different stuff," he growled suggestively.She laughed lightly, rolling her eyes in mock exasperation.He hailed a cab and Bella told the driver the name of their hotel. They enjoyed a scenic late afternoon view of the island as they made their way to the Cavo Tagoo. The pair checked in and were escorted to the Honeymoon Suite by an older bellman who pulled their bags on a brass cart."Congratulations!" he said to them as he opened their door with a flourish.Bella breezed past him impatiently and Luke thanked the man, amused at his misunderstanding and at Bella's reaction
Dream Dominant Collection Chapter 38: A Huge Risk
Chapter 38: A Huge RiskLuke ordered a light dinner of tapas delivered to the suite along with a bottle of local wine. Bella wore a fluffy white bathrobe. He'd put on faded jeans and a grey t-shirt. She smiled lazily at him across the table, a woman sated. He poured them both some wine and they nibbled on the baked feta and tomatoes, olives, and fresh fruits and breads.Bella sighed and said, "I was thinking…""Uh-oh," Luke laughed.She gave him a wry smile. "Seriously! I was thinking about that really nice evening you planned for us in Edinburgh.""Yeah, you liked that, did you?" he asked, grinning."Um, yeah! Wine, music, flowers, an amazing dinner, mind-blowing sex…what's not to like?" she said. "But, I was thinking that I should plan an evening. You know, it's my turn.""No, I don't think that's necessary," he replied slowly."Not necessary?" she laughed. "I'm not saying I feel obligated, just that I'd like to return the favor, so to speak."Luke waited a moment, consider
