Husband For Hire Night Talk
I didn't want to admit it, but Solene's words made my chest feel lighter. Even after speaking to Georgia about it and knowing her mother forced it on her, I couldn't shake that feeling of envy about it. Envious that he was there with them. Envious that he fitted with George so well. Envious of his good-looking. You're handsome...I slapped my hands to my cheeks, startling Arian. He glanced at me quizzically and I cleared my throat, returning to looking out the window. Don't think about it, don't think about it, I chanted in my head. My cheeks felt too warm for my liking. When we arrived at Solene's resort, my mouth almost dropped. It was enormous. We pulled up to what I assumed to be the main building. It towered over us in the night sky, lights shining brightly and illuminating the main entrance and surrounding parking lot. From inside the car, I could see the lobby because it was completely open. No windows, no walls. I turned to Solene in awe. "What if someone robs you?"My questi
Husband For Hire Unknown Chapter
Wilson's POVI woke up the next morning to a knock on the adjoining door. Groaning, I rolled over and peeked my head out of my comforters, seeing Arian on the other bed doing the same. "Come in," he mumbled.Solene slid inside the room, balancing a tray of food on her left hand. The scent of bacon and eggs wafted through the air. "Breakfast in bed?" she offered.Arian sat straight up, oblivious to the fact that his hair was standing in every which direction and his tank top was halfway rolled up his stomach. "I don't believe you're real," he told her, eyeing her suspiciously.I grinned a little bit and Solene chuckled, looking embarrassed. She was wearing a black pair of sweats and a tank and for the first time, I realized just how buff she was. Where Georgia was more on the slender side, Solene was broader. Her biceps were huge. She could probably break Arian in half."I have to prove how amazing of a host I am, don't I?" Solene said, placing the tray on the foot of Arian's bed. S
Husband For Hire Kiss
Why did I have to be so negative all the time? I couldn't read Georgia's mind. There was no use speculating. I'd just have to wait. Maybe she just wanted to spend some time together since she hadn't really got to enjoy anything yet. After we left the beach, we headed back to our suite so we could rinse the salt off our bodies. I decided to be cute and wear the white and red hibiscus-patterned sundress I'd purchased earlier to match the white flower in my hair. Hopefully where we'd be going wouldn't have a strict dress code. Knowing Georgia, she would find something about my dress to complain about."Are you nervous?" Arian asked as he studied herself in the mirror, trying to get a good look at his backside. He'd opted for forest green sundress and it complimented his handsomest."I feel like I'm always nervous around Georgia.""But you're going on a date!" he all but yelled. "Are you happy? Are you excited? I'm all excited for you."I couldn't help but smile at him. "What about you? Y
Husband For Hire Confession
Bennett's POVWilson is an odd guy. He never says what he wants to say. Anyone who watched him would be able to tell. That moment of hesitation where his eyes grow fierce- what he's thinking then, that's what he wants to say. But then split second later, he relaxes and says the thing that will keep the peace. His control is impeccable.But I want to hear what he wants to say. I don't want to see him biting something back for my sake. For my mother's sake."Damn it, Wilson. What did I just say? I don't care what you think you should do. Tell me what you want. You have to tell me what you want. You have to let me know I'm not on my own with this."Anxious. That's how I felt. It wasn't familiar to be the one doing the chasing. Women usually chased me. Now I realized just how scary it was. I knew I should've been cautious like Wilson was being, but what the future held didn't matter to me right now. I didn't care. Come what may. I just wanted him to tell me how he felt. I just wanted to k

"Don't say anything," I told Wilson before swiping to answer the call."Hello?""Where are you?" was his immediate response."I have a feeling you know where I am.""You're not with Solene and you're not at our site," he said. "If you've finished your work, come home. We have something we need to discuss.""What's that?""About that male you've been seeing."A ripple of irritation surged through me. I knew he was speaking like that on purpose. I knew he was trying to get a reaction from me. "His name is Wilson." I said evenly.The Wilson in question vigorously shook his head, holding up his arms."Don't bring me up!""Are you sure that's his name?" my mother asked me. "He seems to rely on lying. Were you aware that he has not even spent a day in France? He doesn't even have a passport. I'm sure there are many other lies he's told you that aren't true."I tried to keep my face impassive as to not worry Wilson, but I could tell by his paling face that I wasn't doing a great job. "Did yo
Husband For Hire Confused
Wilson's POVA knock came from the bedroom door. It shook as someone tried to open it, but I'd locked it, so it didn't budge."Wilson?"It was Solene. Georgia must've finally given up. I wasn't sure how long she'd been out there at this point, banging on the door, trying to get me to open it, but I couldn't see her right now. I couldn't talk to her. I couldn't get the image out of my head.The image of the double gold watches on his right wrist. The image of the back of her head as she walked away from me on the beach. The image of the back of her head at Mckellan's bar. My chest felt tight again and I took a few deep breaths, trying to calm myself. I had to get home. This couldn't be right. Georgia couldn't have been at the bar. But somehow, I knew it was her on the video footage. Georgia was there the night my brother went to jail."Wilson, can we talk? Just for a second?"I knew it was wrong to ignore Solene, but I didn't want to see anyone. I wanted to watch that video footage and
Husband For Hire Apologies
Suddenly the song Car Radio held a lot more meaning to it. When we arrived, I practically ran into the building, heading straight for Walter's office. A few customers gave me strange looks but I didn't give them a second thought."Wilson, how are you?" Walter greeted me, smiling widely and warmly. It fell slightly as he took in my appearance."Are you okay?""Can you play me that tape you showed us the other time?" I asked him. "And are there are cameras that have different angles we can look at?""Yes, it's all set up for you. Take a look, I'm going to go get you some water," he told me, urging me into the seat in front of the computer.I glanced at Arian. He nodded at me. I sat down at the computer. It took no longer than two seconds to see that the man on the video footage was Georgia. I knew her stupid hair. I knew that stupid style. I couldn't believe I didn't recognize her before, even without the dumb double watches. Was it because I never would have suspected her? Now she was
Husband For Hire Coincidence?
Wilson's POVFor the next couple days, it was almost impossible to talk to Georgia. Once again she was gone before I woke up, arrived home after I fell asleep, or just locked herself up in her room. I felt bad and I just wanted to apologize to her. I knew she was thinking the whole thing was her fault. She probably thought I regretted us kissing, too. I didn't want her thinking like that. But I didn't have any chance to tell her that.Since I had to make up for the hours I'd lost at Coffee House while I'd been in Hawaii, I'd been working a lot too. I tried texting her a couple times, only to receive a text from Henry saying that Georgia was busy.Ah, speaking of Henry, apparently he was my own personal chauffer now. I no longer had the rental and still couldn't bring my house car to Georgia's house, so Henry had taken to picking me up and dropping me off places. I hated it, but I also could understand. Georgia's mother knew somethiing was up with me so we had to take caution now more
