“I would have never thought of that, you should be an architect Miss James.” Alex returned. “I just figured with all the support beams and everything else we have that they were just for the dancers.”
“Please, just Riley.” She returned.
“Well, you are brilliant Riley.” Alex stated as he took some toothpicks and pushed them into the model.
“That’s perfect.” Riley stated with a smile. “Just give me a call if you need anything else.”
“Will do Miss Riley.” Alex returned as he signaled for his crew to come look at the model.
Riley grabbed Jackson’s hand and led him out of the construction area. “Are you ready to get settled in?” She questioned as she led him to the elevator and pushed for the top floor.
He turned and grabbed her by her hips, pulling her close as he kissed her a little rougher than he meant to. He teased the seam of her lips

Riley looked stunning in a kind of dark grey asymmetrical shirt, where part barely covered her stomach while the rest flowed down to her hips. She wore a pair of faded short jean shorts accompanied by the cowboy hat and boots that she was the day they first met. Jackson’s heart thundered when he saw her, just like it always did.After seeing her Jackson felt like he was a bit underdressed, wearing just a navy blue button up and a nice pair of faded jeans that matched. She smiled at him with that exhilarating smile she always gave him. “Are you ready to go?” Her voice was soft, and she seemed to blush a little at how he was staring at her.“Riley, you should come back to Laguna Beach with me.” He blurted out, shocked at his own words.“What?” She questioned, just as shocked as he was.“At least until that guy is gone.” He stated as he walked toward her hand rubbed his hands on her hips. “Until I k

“So how are things going between you and my sister?” Sam questioned, running a finger along the brim of his glass before taking a swig.“It’s going good, but I really don’t like Gerard hanging around her.” Jackson knew that Sam would ask about his relationship with Riley, if he didn’t he would wonder what kind of brother he was.“I don’t either.” Sam’s answer was blunt. “Dad is having me take over as CEO in less than a year, he and Mom were going to retire to the Bahamas. When that happens I’m throwing Gerard out on his ass. Worse that could happen is we lose the contracts with the vineyard, but there are others we can find.”Jackson stood up and walked over to the glass to watch Riley and Mandy dancing. Just from a glance Sam could tell that he was deep in thought. Sam walked over and handed him a cigar. “I invited her to come back to California with me.” Jackson adm

Riley woke up to the smell of fresh brewed coffee and some subtle noises in the kitchen. She saw the clothes strewn across the floor and found Jackson’s button up shirt and put it on, not bothering with the buttons.As soon as she opened the bedroom door the smell of breakfast wafted through the room. She walked into the kitchen, seeing Jackson shirtless she walked up behind him, enjoying the sight of the muscles on his back flexing with every movement, kissing his shoulder as she wrapped her arms around his muscular waist. “Good morning handsome.” Her voice filled with lust.He turned around, setting the spatula down and giving her a charming smile. “I’m surprised you’re not hung over.” He eyed her up and down, feeling himself start to harden at the sight in front of him.She took a couple of steps back and jumped up so that she was sitting on the kitchen island. He stepped forward so he was between her legs, kissing he

“Yeah they’ll just wait here until we get back.” Sam answered with a quizzical look.“Let’s go get our women some jewelry for tonight.” Jackson said, walking towards a jewelry store that was over towards the entrance.They were greeted by two flirty saleswomen but they gave no response and headed straight for the display case. Jackson already knew what he was getting because he caught a glimpse of it as they were walking passed. It was a white gold necklace with diamond accents that formed the shape of a heart with a key inside of it, along with matching earrings. He signaled for one of the saleswomen. “I’ll take this one.”“Sir, that’s five hundred thousand dollars, it’s a one of a kind set, we just got it in an hour ago.” She returned, dropping her flirty tone for a snarky one.“And?” Jackson questioned, his tone slightly rude and agitated.“I’m

It was a quick but quiet ride to the venue but they changed as soon as they got out of the car. As soon as the car doors opened up, cameras started going off like crazy and an a voice came over the intercom. “If it isn’t the prince and princess of Manhattan, children of Erin and Arthur James.”The cameras started going off even more rapidly as Jackson got out of the car and put his arm around Riley’s back. “What is this? The princess of Manhattan has a date tonight? Does that mean that the most eligible bachelorette is off the market?”Riley’s cheeks flared red as reporters swarmed the two of them. Luckily the bodyguards wouldn’t let them get too close. Jackson pulled her closer and she gave him a lengthy kiss on the cheek. Cameras still flashing vigorously. “Has Gerard Moretti lost her love forever?” The announcer commented.She continued into the venue then, feeling that she had made her point and kno

“What are you talking about?” She asked.“You know what I am talking about, I was swarmed by reporters out there, Riley you are so lucky we’re in public..”“You wouldn’t touch her.” Jackson interrupted, pulling Riley behind him.Sam stepped up then, but the bell rang that signaled that dinner was ready. All four of them gave him one last hateful look before they started walking to the dining area. Just like they always did they went and sat at the table with their parents, luckily the tables seated six so there was no room for anybody else at their table.The rest of the time there was uneventful and after everybody ate they only stayed a couple more hours, just mingling and making a good impression. Riley and Mandy took off their heels as soon as they got into the limo.“My feet are killing me.” Riley complained.“Come here.” Jackson said as he pulled her legs up on his

Jackson stepped out of the shower and went to the toilet, his face going pale as he saw that it was rolled up to the base of his shaft, nothing beyond that. ‘Shit.’ He thought to himself as he pulled the broken condom off and threw it in the trash. Seeing that Riley had already left the bathroom he hollered. “Riley are you on birth control?” “No, why?” Her voice was sweet and innocent, he didn’t know how to say it to her. “Because it broke.” He answered numbly, tossing the broken rubber in the trash frustrated. “Why aren’t you on birth control?” “You are literally the first guy I have slept with in over three years, I guess it didn’t cross my mind.” She returned. “What do we do?” Her eyes showed her in panic. She pulled a red satin robe on that had black lace on the hemlines. “Well, there is I slight chance that you didn’t get pregnant, but there is always the morning after pill, that would be best..” “I’m not doing that.” She interrupted.

Three weeks laterJackson was woken up early by his phone ringing loudly on his nightstand. “Dad it’s six-thirty in the morning, what is so important?” He grunted.“Are you trying to sell your house?”“I haven’t decided yet.”“You need to cancel your flight this afternoon and we need to talk about this.”“I haven’t seen Riley in three weeks, I’m not cancelling my flight.” He returned getting out of bed and making coffee, he knew where this conversation was going already.“If you are so serious about this girl, why haven’t I met her yet?”“Because I don’t want you to sleep with her.” Jackson shot back.“Jackson, I didn’t know who she was.” His father’s voice softened.“I know dad.”“Cancel your flight.”“No, we can
