Chapter 24. Switching Rooms
“Hey Melisa?” I was sitting on the bed with Melisa in our room and we were both rubbing the hand cream that had been on the dressing table. It smelled so good, Emre never disappointed, “Thanks for opting to share a room with me. You saved me from Eric.”
“It was my pleasure, he creeped me out today,” She said touching her lips.
“Me too,” I replied, “I hope he’s gotten the message that I’m not interested in him.”
Melisa’s phone rang and she picked it up on the first ring. I deduced from her side of the conversation and the blush creeping up the side of her face that it was Mert. I smiled and went into the ensuite bathroom to give her some privacy.
I made a bun on top my head while I waited for her to finish and tried not to listen in on her conversation.
When I came out, she was waiting for me.
“I want to ask you a favor,” she said and bit her lip.
“Anything,” I encouraged her.
“Um it was Mert,” She pointed to her phone,

I came back to the present realizing both Emre and Ashton were staring at me.“Okay, explain,” I told him, “How are you to blame in Emre firing me?”“I didn’t fire you,” Emre retorted, “You resigned!”“You didn’t trust me!” I replied, “You didn’t believe that I was not involved in the funds that ad disappeared from the company account.”“I believed you!”“You didn’t, you had one doubt and that’s why you told me to take a few weeks’ vacation. Do you think you do that to someone? You don’t even do that to just an employee and I was more than that.. or that’s just it.. I wasn’t..I wasn’t anything to you” I ran out of words.“I wanted to investigate what had happened without you in all of it” He ran his hands through his hair.“So, you took me out of it, out of my off

I couldn’t believe the extent of my disappointment, sadness and disbelief. It was as if a dam had burst and I was suddenly remembering everything and crying my heart out to the ocean.Great ugly sobs tore out of me while the wind whipped my face around my face, like the wind and the sea were angry with me. Everything hurt, my heart, my soul, everything was in tatters. Who would have thought that a fun trip would end up so tragic as I slowly slid down and leaned on the upstairs deck.Heartbroken again, how did I let one person break my heart again and again? It was pathetic, I thought as I closed my eyes and thought of everything that had happened to me since Emre had come into my life.And now both brothers were in my life again, wrecking it.I felt someone come and sit next to me and I looked sideways at Emre. He looked tired and almost as empty as me.I couldn’t believe the extent to which those people had gone to
His Girl 1. Collision
Istanbul was alive, the sun was shining, the weather was almost perfect and for once, I’d had a good night’s sleep. I really wasn’t a morning person, but today’s trip had me excited, enough to get everything ready in time to leave. I couldn’t remember when I’d taken a day off just to relax and enjoy life, to just be.It seemed like centuries since I’d allowed myself to be carefree again…These past few years had changed me, I thought to myself sadly, hardened me; I wasn’t the same easygoing happy kid I used to be. I f I looked inside me now, I wouldn’t be able to find even a shred of the naïve girl who had lived in me before. I decided I didn’t want to ruin my good mood by dwelling on the past, so I focused on what I was taking with me.My backpack was ready and since I’d already marinated the chicken last night, all I had to do was fry it. I finished off the chicken, did a quick

I could see the shock on his face and was perversely satisfied that my face showed no emotion. I’d used my time wisely to hide my expression.Let him be surprised, I thought smugly“Guys” he said and I almost fell down to my knees again at his familiar voice, it scraped me raw.Emre Evans.“The man we’ve all been waiting for” Ashton was saying but I was only partially listening.What were the odds that Ashton’s older brother would turn out to be Emre Evans. Should I have known? Their surname wasn’t common enough.I abruptly remembered an old conversation filtered through old memories…Emre mentioning to me that he had a younger brother, a step-brother when his mother had remarried.Oh God.I was brought back out of my reverie by Eric’s voice introducing me to someone who didn’t need an introduction to know me.He was familiar with me… all pa

The boat was amazing; a thing of beauty, all white on white and exposed wood. Built on three levels and designed for a superior outdoor lifestyle, the yacht had a gleaming sundeck, bow seating and even a swim deck to launch jet skis.Eric was pretty impressed, calling it a super yacht.I rolled my eyes, he could afford it, I thought.Good for him. I wondered how many other friends he’d hosted here.How many other women…girlfriends…How convenient.I stopped that thought in its tracks. None of my business.We went inside for the full tour, even more ostentatious I thought as we were led into the main saloon, the forward end of the cabin had been turned into a eat in galley complete with bar stools with the rest of the space furnished with comfy looking couches.Ashton told us how there were four staterooms below decks and two cabins for the crew…Damn… just the kind of toy that separated
His Girl 4. Two For One
I got up and went out. I needed to control my unruly body.It felt like it was functioning apart from my mind.After a few minutes of cooling myself down, I took my bag back with me as an excuse.I felt like I was in a spy movie but who was the imposter here?Who was trying to catch whom?To my relief, Eric had come up and taken my place beside Emre and was showing him Pelin’s pictures.I sat down across from them next to Pelin, taking his place, the table in between all that temptation.Phew, I felt weak with relief.I settled back lazily, leaning my body into the cushions and tilting my face back.I needed some sugar in me, I thought. My mind was a mess.Maybe it wasn’t a good idea to get out a chocolate right now? My body was already too hyped up.Was Emre any less than a sugar rush?Emre suddenly ran a hand through his sun streaked hair and I knew I really needed that chocolate.

The devil lounged back against the wall watching me with a full blown smile on his face.For the tiniest of seconds, it was as it had been before. I would go up to him and throw my arms around his neck and he’d hold me as if he wasn’t ever going to let go.But then I remembered that nothing was as it had been before. He’d made sure of that.“Feeling hot?” his eyes were laughing at me as if he knew just the effect he was having on me.I didn’t think I could reply in a dignified way so I kept quiet and turned back to the view.“You should put on some sunscreen, you’ll burn” he said from behind me.I wanted to say I was already burning so I said nothing.“C’mon let’s go, I’ll make you a drink? For old time’s sake.” He offered blandly.“I’m sure you’ll poison it or poison Eric’s,” I made a face he couldn’t s
His Girl 6. Unique Flavor
I chanced a look at Emre who was silent and staring at the ocean. He suddenly turned and looked straight at me as if he could feel my gaze. Our eyes clashed as a song began to play and I couldn’t look away. I was like a deer in headlights, like the inadvertent prey caught in the hunter’s eyes. He tilted his head and raised a brow, as if asking me something. He slowly walked towards me and wrapped his hand around mine on my now nearly empty glass.“I’ll get you a new one” He said, still not breaking the stare.I looked down, flexing my hand against his.“No,” I could hardly speak, I felt breathless from his proximity, “There’s still some left.”He gave me a smile suddenly, lifted his hand holding the glass on top of mine and still looking at me, drank the remaining contents of the glass.“That really is a very unique flavor,” he said as he walked away towards the bar with my emp
