Taming My Hot Personal Assistant •125•What Ifs And Maybes
The woman on Luca's arm was gorgeous. With her glowing brown skin, an oval face shaped by pitch black hair that was swept to one side of her neck, thick brows, and body adorned in a body-hugging halter dress, the woman was every definition of stunning.She said something to Luca and when he looked at her and chuckled, Skylar felt like her chest was being stomped on. She nearly flinched when Luca suddenly looked in her direction, her heart picking up pace as their eyes met and held.She lost the unannounced staring contest too quickly, turning away while pretending like she was helping with the coordination of waiters even though she knew Cornelia had more than had that taken care of.In her haste to get out of Luca's view, she nearly toppled someone over. The person held both herself and himself stable, and she looked up to find that it was Alex."Hey, watch out!" He said, brows arched. "Is everything alright?""Yes." She nodded and smile
Taming My Hot Personal Assistant •126•To Start Over
Just as Skylar started making her way towards Luca, Cornelia's voice came through the speakers, announcing that it was time for dinner. Everyone who was up on their feet went to take their seat, and sighing, Skylar went to do so too.The closest family to the birthday boy and girl, if she could even call Cornelia that, were going to be seated at one table larger than the others.There was Skylar herself, her mum and her dad, Austin, Cornelia and her husband, Ana, one of Luca's aunts, Ella, Abhishek, Laura, Luca, and...and what the heck was Aisha doing at the close family table?Her heart sinking, Skylar focused on picking her meal choice from the menus already laid out on the table. It consisted of a ridiculous amount of different dishes. The catering service was definitely charging a fortune if they were willing to provide all these for anyone who requested them.Cornelia insisted on feeding Austin, which shouldn't have been a problem, but at that moment, it was, because with Skylar's
Taming My Hot Personal Assistant •127•Like Coming Home
He had to be dreaming. That was the only possibility Luca could think about for the things he was hearing. After all, it was only in his dreams that he heard Skylar saying those words to him. Nightly dreams that left him in a state of despair every time he awoke the next morning.Even when Skylar drew his head down and smashed her lips to his, he still couldn't accept that it wasn't a dream. Yet, he kissed her back, matching her fierceness and her fervour, his hands running all over her as her hands pulled haphazardly at him.The more he drank in the taste of her tongue and reveled in her moans of relish as they kissed, the more real it all felt.“Oh my God!” “Jesus fucking Christ!” Came voices that had definitely never been in his dreams. Skylar broke their kiss and pulled away so sharply that his head reeled from the sudden deprivation of her mouth.As Luca looked around at the faces all around them, it struck him more and more that there was no way this could be a dream. Apparent
Taming My Hot Personal Assistant •128•Too Happy
When Luca's body began quavering again, Skylar's first thought was that it was a second wave of orgasm that'd waited a minute after the first to hit him, until the sounds of his broken sobs reached her ears."Tarzan..." She breathed in shock.The magnitude of emotion behind every sob had chills running down her spine, his tears further dampening her already sweat-soaked chest.He hadn't told her why he was crying, and yet somehow, she knew, and it pulled the tears out of her own eyes. Wrapping her arms around him, she cried along with him when she should be comforting him."I'm sorry." Luca croaked when their sobs eased. "God, I'm so sorry for being such a mess, Vanilla. It's just that I thought I'd lost you forever and having you like this again, it... It..."Another broken sound erupted from his throat as he cried some more."I know... I know. It's okay, Luca. It's okay." She smiled sadly as she continued to hold him.Finally, when his tears stopped, he lifted his head from her ches
Taming My Hot Personal Assistant •129•Wasted Four Years Already
Since it was the weekend, both Skylar and Luca didn't have to worry much about work commitments, and Laura was more than happy to take care of Austin a day more without Skylar.They spent the rest of the day and the following together inside Luca's house, not a single step outside. They made love countless times, watched movies, cooked and ate together, or just talked about mundane things.She'd always known that Luca had never been high on the social/friendship scene, and it became obvious once again as they talked about their lives before each other, consisting of fresh tales or ones they'd already told each other years ago.Because of his father, Luca had always been focused on business. As a result, the few friends he made had got tired of his nonchalance and stopped being in his life. Only Caleb had been persistent enough throughout the years. Skylar knew Luca had always been fond of him, and she hated the fact that they hadn't spoken in nearly five months."How's Caleb doing?" Sh

No, Luca. I can't marry you.Those words reverberated in his head. Over and over. Throwing him into denial. Because there was no way Skylar could've said that. His mind had to be playing tricks on him.And yet he looked her into her eyes, took in the tears that suddenly shimmered in those grey depths, and reality hit him hard like a slap."I... I don't... I don't get it." He chuckled a bit because it was the only reaction he could think about when his mind was still reeling with bewilderment. "You can't marry me? You don't want to marry me? You...You don't want to spend your life with me?""I want to. I want to spend my life with you, Luca." She croaked. Feeling an anchor of hope in a sea of fear, Luca held on and clung to it , hoping she would pull him out before the sea eventually knocked him under.Stepping forward, he took her face between his palms. "So you agree to be my wife?"The tears that had been brightening her eyes fell, hitting him with a hard premonition even before sh
Taming My Hot Personal Assistant •131•She's With Me
Luca sat in his living room in the darkness and poured a shot of whiskey down his throat. The icy drink scorched his throat, but counter to his hopes, it did nothing to ease the burn in his chest. If anything, it only seemed to fuel it.His heart literally felt like it was on fire, a result of the incendiary reality he'd come to terms with today; Skylar didn't want to spend her life with him.Truth be told, he knew he was out of his mind for having expected Skylar to say yes to him so soon after she'd given him a second chance. He knew she was still afraid of him hurting her and she would need time to feel secure enough before she agreed to marry him.That was exactly what he'd expected her explanation to be. Not tell him she didn't plan to commit to him.Yes, she'd explained a lot of things and went in a number of circles but everything she'd said boiled down to one thing; she didn't want to marry him.Not now, not ever.The ache in his chest intensified. Fuck, everything had been go
Taming My Hot Personal Assistant •132•Fucking Drugged Her
Before the tentacles of doubts could bury its roots inside his mind, Luca held himself firm and shook his head, slicing through it until it was completely dead.No, he refused to believe it. He refused to believe that Skylar had done this to him. It just couldn't be.She loved him. Over the weekend, she'd shown him that with so much passion he'd felt it within his soul. There had been nothing like uncertainty about her love.Besides, during their fight regarding his marriage proposal, she'd told him that she wanted to spend the rest of her life with him too. She wouldn't have never said anything like that if she didn't mean it.And he believed her. He wasn't going to make the mistake of jumping to conclusions again. He'd been there before, and where had that landed him? In hell, for four fucking years. There was no way he wanted to go back there.There had to be some plausible explanation as to why she was in Alex William's house sleeping in his arms in that state. An explanation that
