CHAPTER 25
I wake up to feather-light kisses being showered across my neck and shoulders. My back is to Beau. I squeeze my eyes shut, pretending to still be asleep as his arm comes up from behind and snakes around my waist. Hopefully he doesn't see through it. I can’t face him after last night. I don't know what I was thinking asking him to sleep with me. Shame washes over me. How could I sleep with Beau after everything that’s happened and, worse, how could I say those words to him? Beau doesn't deserve to hear me say that. I didn't even know I still felt that way until last night. It just slipped out. I’d convinced myself that what I felt for Beau was purely attraction. But I was clearly lying to myself. I don't even want to imagine how big his ego must be now that he knows I still love him. God! I’m such an idiot.
I’m pulled from my thoughts once I notice the absence of Beau's warm lips against my skin. The covers rustle and I think he might be get

I shout Tamara's name for the tenth time tonight to come down, so we can leave for the party. I decided to take Tamara with me as back up. She was also surprised by the way Hannah behaved when she saw me. Neither of us can tell if she’s pretending or not."I am so sorry; I had to change my shoes twice." She says, walking down the stairs."It's fine, let's go." We walk to the car outside, and I drive us to Hannah's house.Stepping out of the car, I walk towards her backyard, my heart beating fast against my chest. I don't know why but I’ve got this eerie feeling in my stomach.We enter the gardens, and the place is packed with people. I look around to try and find Hannah or a face I recognize, but I find none. I’m about to dial her number when I hear her voice call me from behind.I turn around, and my heart immediately twinges. Beau is standing beside her with an arm wrapped around her waist. My heart tightens in my chest, seeing

DELILAH Tamara has disappeared. When we arrived, she went to the bathroom, and I haven’t seen her since. I managed to convince Hannah to let me leave her side a minute ago, and now I need to find Tamara so we can leave. I couldn’t tell Hannah I wanted to leave, because then she would ask why, and I can’t tell her. My heart was aching enough as I walked around with her and heard everyone telling her congratulations. There is no way Hannah doesn't know about Beau and me. She probably invited me to shove it in my face that she is the woman who the whole world will know owns Beau’s heart. Walking inside the main house, I check the rooms one by one looking for Tamara. She’s not picking up her phone, and I’m beginning to get worried. I’m about to turn a room doorknob when the person inside beats me to it. “Delilah,” Beau says, stepping out of the room. I roll my eyes at him and turn to walk away, but Beau halts my steps by grabbing my hand. “Mon

DELILAH The day after the party, I’m in my office attending to some work when someone barges in. I don't even bother to lift my eyes from the papers in front of me, because my secretary says the name of my unexpected visitor as she tries to block the door. "Mrs. Williams! Miss Stephen is busy right now. You can't see her." "Young lady, I want to see Delilah now, and I will." Jenny pushes past her and marches to my desk. I wave to my secretary to leave; she tried her best. "To what do I owe this unpleasant visit, Jenny?" Lifting my head up, I rest my chin on my interlocked fingers. "Good day to you, too." She takes the seat on the other side of my desk. "Wow, you’re sitting down? You must have a lot to say today." "Delilah, I need you to come with me somewhere." "Where could you possibly need me to go with you?" I lean back in my seat, crossing my arms and staring at her as she gets comfortable. "You will see whe

“I think it’s high time we take a vacation and get away from here for a little while,” I say, sitting in one of the chairs on the other side of Camila’s desk. There was no way I was going to get any work done after Jenny’s visit, so I came to Camila’s office for a distraction.She doesn’t even bother looking up from whatever it is that she’s typing on her computer. “What exactly are you running away from?”“Why would you think I am running away from something?”“Anytime you don’t want to deal with something, you always suggest we take a trip.”“I am not running away from anything.”“Delilah.” Camila looks away from her screen and gives me a knowing look.“I swear! I just feel overwhelmed with everything that’s been happening since Beau came back and think I might need some time away from him.”“The

It’s been a few days since the girls and I arrived in Hawaii, and it’s been amazing so far. I don’t think I ever want to go back home.“Tamara, could you put some sunscreen on my back, please?” I sit up on the beach chair and turn around after handing her the bottle of sunscreen.“Sure,” Tamara says but doesn’t begin applying it immediately as I expect. I’m about to turn and ask her if something is wrong when I feel the sunscreen on my skin. She begins to spread it all over my back, but somethings not right. My brows pull together as I realize her hands feel larger and rougher than they should.“Not to be rude, Tamara, but why do your hands feel like a man’s?”“Because I am a man,” a deep voice says. I quickly turn around, and a frown appears on my face once I see who’s standing behind me. Taking off my shades, I look around the beach for Tamara. I find her arguing w

I bite my lips as I pace the room. It’s been a few hours since Beau and Harvey went to get Tamara back. While we’ve waited, Camila and I tried to think of reasons why Tamara could have been kidnapped. Tamara comes from a wealthy family, but I don’t believe she was abducted because of money. If she were, there would have been a ransom call, and her family would have reached out to ask what happened. Right after he left, Beau texted saying Harvey wanted to ask me not to inform her family about the kidnapping. He doesn’t want them to worry about her. I told him it was wrong to keep it a secret from them, but he said if they didn’t come back with her by midnight, then I could tell her family. I glance at the stove clock. It’s nearing midnight. Harvey and Beau have been gone for almost six hours. I hope everything is okay. A knock at the door snaps me out of my thoughts. Rushing over, I pull it open, and gasp in shock once my eyes land on Tamara in Harvey’s arms. They walk inside

“Beau,” I moan and close my eyes when he starts to thrust harder and faster.My eyes shoot open once I feel Beau flipping us over. I land on top of him with his length still inside me. He places his hands on my waist and guides my movements. Bending forward a little, I guide his mouth to my breast. Beau takes as much as he can and sucks hard on my nipple. Removing his hand from my waist, he begins to massage my other breast. I continue to move on top of him on my own. Pulling my breast out of his mouth, I sit up straight and spread my palms on his chest, arching my back. Beau grabs my neck and pulls my face back down. He captures my lips and kisses me hard. I moan into his mouth as I feel my release building. My toes dig into the sheets, and my eyes roll to the back of my head. I’m already there.“Scream my name, baby,” Beau speaks against my lips.He doesn’t have to beg because I gladly do it as my core clenches around his le

I gently knock on Tamara's door. Leaning against the wall as I wait for her, I try to fight my tiredness. "Who is it?" Tamara calls from inside the room. "Delilah." "Oh, I'll be there in a sec." "Alright." I hear some movement inside before Tamara finally opens the door. "Sorry I took a while, come in." She steps aside so I can enter. "It's fine; I didn't wait that long." I walk inside and sit on the couch close to her bed. "How are you feeling today?" I rake my eyes over her body to check if Harvey treated her injuries well, and he did. That’s good. "Better." She takes a seat beside me. I turn to face her and look into her eyes, trying to tell if she’s lying. I don't know all the details of what she went through, but I know it must have been bad from how she looked last night. "Beau told us everything. I can't believe Harvey is in love with you." "Apparently so." "You sound like you don't believe
