Mikayla's Mistake: A One Night Stand with the Billionaire CHAPTER 44
Mikayla asked for the last patient to be let in. It had been a long, eventful day and she couldn't wait for it to end. As the door opened for the last patient to come in, she caught a glimpse of Cael sitting in one of the waiting chairs in the outer office. She smiled.Just seeing him there lifted her spirits in a way nothing else could. He'd said he'd be back after his meeting and there he was true to his word. She felt relieved and safe. A small part of her had been worried about Antoine possibly waiting for her in the parking lot after work. Even though she knew it was unlikely, she couldn't shake the irrational fear.But now that he was here, she knew she was completely safe. She welcomed her last patient with a smile. Barely five seconds after the patient left, her door opened and without looking up, she knew it was Cael.She rose from her seat and went around the table to him. She hugged him. "Hey," she whispered against his chest, listening to the calming, steady beat of

Cael wordlessly grabbed Mikayla's bag and walked ahead. At the door, he motioned to her to wait and stepped out first, scanning the surroundings before turning back and saying she could come out.Mikayla stepped out chuckling, completely amused by his overprotectiveness."Make sure you lock up tight," he said."Yes, sir!" She snapped a salute, chuckling. She locked up the house securely, turning the knob a few times to make sure then she followed him to her car. "You're driving," she announced. "I'm too tired to drive." She tossed him the keys and he caught it deftly."I was going to drive anyway," he said, unlocking the car and opening the door for her. He tossed her bag into the back and got in himself."You know I don't even know where you live," she pointed out. "We've never once spoken about it.""Orange estate," he answered.Mikayla gasped. "Orange estate?" Everyone knew orange estate. It was one of those areas in town where the rich people lived behind high fences and gates

The loud crash on the TV snapped Cael and Mikayla out of the trance-like state they were in.They sprung apart. Mikayla chuckled nervously. Her body still hummed in anticipation, failing to get the message that the mood was broken."I got you a beer too," Cael said causally, nodding towards the centre table which had an identical can sitting on top of it. He took a long gulp of his own beer too and she knew that he felt as uncomfortable as she did. It gave her some relief."Thank you." She leaned forward and grabbed the beer. "Why are watching this anyway?" Blasted decoration show, she thought. Way to ruin the mood."You said my house looked boring," he said simply, flatly. There was no antagonism in his voice. He was simply stating a fact.Still, Mikayla felt bad. "I didn't exactly say that. I-- okay, yeah, I said that," she laughed nervously.He smiled back reassuringly to show that he didn't take offence to it. "I stumbled on this channel and thought I'd give it a watch, see if

Mikayla walked the halls of hospital with her hands in the pockets of her dress. The dress was a cool shade of yellow, almost golden, clinched at the waist by a matching belt and had pockets in the front. She wore gold heels with a matching gold purse and finished off the look with some chic shades. She'd thought of putting a scarf around her neck for added effect but after the incidents of the previous day, she didn't want to give anyone any wrong ideas.Her hair was pulled up in a simple ponytail as usual but her auburn hair looked wonderful against the yellow of the dress. She knew because she spent an inordinate amount of time in front of the mirror that morning.It had felt so strange waking up in Cael's house, even if it was in the guest room. After Armani left, they'd gone back to catch the end of the movie while eating their pizza and then had an extra can of beer eachAfter that, Cael had declared that it was late and that they should go to bed to her utter disappointmen
Mikayla's Mistake: A One Night Stand with the Billionaire CHAPTER 48
Cael Lautner was having a very busy day. After drooping Mikayla at work, he'd immediately headed into this first meeting of the day and by two 'o clock, he'd had three more.It seemed like a lot of work but he didn't mind working like that. It came naturally to him. The only thing that bothered him was the very important task he was going to take care of right now. Mikayla had stayed with him the night before and it was wonderful. He'd loved every moment of having her here.Usually he kept people as far away from his house as possible. It was his personal sanctum; a place to get away from people. Only Armani frequented his house like it was hers and because it was her, he didn't mind too much.But he loved Mikayla being there. Seeing her walk his hallways, sit on his couch, watch TV in her pajamas just felt right in a way he couldn't even begin to understand. He wanted her around more often. For the first time in his life, he actually wanted someone else in his space.Then there w
Mikayla's Mistake: A One Night Stand with the Billionaire CHAPTER 49
Mikayla was racing against time. She needed to be at the reunion thirty minutes ago! But she'd had several appointments that day and had closed late from work. Anna had left work earlier which meant she was now ready but Mikayla wasn't. And for someone who was perpetually late, she was really giving Mikayla a lot of flack. She'd already called her twice and the phone was ringing again.Mikayla had just stepped out of the shower. She still needed to take care of her skin, dress up and put on some makeup. Anna would either have to be very, very patient or go ahead without her.She went to grab her phone, reaching out just as it stopped ringing. She sighed and dialled back. "Hi," she said."Mikayla, where are youuuu? Are you ready now?""Anna, how do you expect me to have gotten ready in the..." she checked her phone "...past five minutes since you called me. I basically just had a speed shower. I'm just stepping out of the bathroom.""So you're not dressed yet? Oh no!" She cried. "

Cael dropped Mikayla off at the reunion and left. Meanwhile, Mikayla stood in front of the building where the event was taking place and sighed. The last thing she wanted was to be here. She would rather be curled up on the couch at home, watching a movie with Cael.She smiled. How funny was it that she now thought of Cael's house as home? She'd only been there a week yet she felt so at home. She'd be leaving soon and by the time she returned, it would be as Cael's official woman.She could feel it. She knew it. He was planning something extravagant to ask her out and she was absolutely here for it!She'd never thought herself to be much of a romantic but she loved every bit of it with Cael.What she loved even more right now was knowing how much she affected him. It'd felt very one sided, the pain of not being able to touch him the way she wanted and do the things she wanted to do to him.But now that she realized that she was the one who'd been oblivious to his distress. Now tha

"Now how's my favourite ex-girlfriend doing?" The handsome newcomer asked cheerfully."Bernie!" Mikayla exclaimed breathily. "You're here!""In the flesh," he said, winking. He casually placed his hand across the back of her chair and stretched out his long legs under the table.He sighed. "Nice!""I didn't know you were back home. When did you fly in from Africa?" Mikayla asked."Just two days ago. I didn't tell anyone so I could surprise you all. I was hoping you'd be here at the reunion so we'd get to see." "I nearly wasn't going to come," she informed him. "Anna forced me into it."He grinned. A dimple appeared in his cheek, mesmerizing Mikayla as it always had. "I figured that would be the case so I planned to pay you a visit at the hospital if you didn't come.""Are you back for good or just for a little while?" She asked.He shook his head. "Just for a little while. I'll be going back in a week. I'm still much needed over there."Mikayla nodded. That was one thing she'd alway
