The bathroom door collided roughly against the wall, not that the two men noticed as they were both engrossed in firing insults at each other. Even still in the middle of their fight, Leo was getting ice for Grayson’s hand. That spoke volumes about his character. He would still take care of Grayson no matter fucking what. Even if Grayson didn’t want his help or didn’t deserve it or how badly he hurt Leo in the process. Not that he certainly didn’t need it though. On the outside weighing in, it would be easy for Amber to assume that Grayson really was just an entitled, ungrateful selfish bastard who took more than he ever gave. But she could see something else about the billionaire that most would miss. Yes, Grayson was all of those things, but he was also so much more. The real reason he lashed out at Leo tonight wasn’t just because he was angry that Leo was snuffing his wedding and trying to control his life, he also felt guilty as fuck. The billionaire felt guilty
Leo recovered quicker than Amberleigh did while Grayson stood before them with an accusation written across his flushed face. If he gripped the bottle of vitamins any tighter, it seemed the bottle would snap. But it seemed much more likely that the billionaire was going to snap first. “What the fuck are you doing going through my medicine cabinet?” “I was looking for some type of pain relievers for my hand. Now answer my fucking question.”Grayson turned his hostile gaze from Leo to Amber. But Leo stepped closer to his friend and placed his body in between the two of them. Like a physical barrier, just daring Grayson to make another move, say another hate filled word in Amber’s direction. “Who the fuck do you think you are coming into my home, insulting me and my guest, and making fucking demands? That shit may work with ninety –nine percent of the other people in your life, but it sure as fuck won’t work with me Grayson. This is my hous
What was more fucking awkward than telling your baby daddy he was going to be a daddy and that you were now in a relationship with his best friend? Being trapped in a small bathroom with him, his probably soon to be ex best friend while, the world outside seemed to blow itself apart. At least it had grown somewhat quiet on the uncomfortable banter front, after Leo had convinced a reluctant Grayson to take shelter with them in the bathroom in the first place. But the billionaire was determined to still be a stubborn dick and sat as far across the room from Amber and Leo as possible. Amber and Leo were being good and following those grade school taught safety rules, get in a room with plumbing and least amount of windows, hunker down in the bathtub, and hopefully not kiss your ass goodbye. Leo had his hand clenched on her knee, though for more for whose benefit, she couldn’t be sure. He kept reading them out updates about the storm. Amber kept herself occupied by shining her smartwatch
It was a solid right hook that took both Amberleigh and Grayson by surprise, hell it probably even surprised Leo. Grayson stumbled back, his back hitting against the bathroom counter which had to have hurt like a bitch. Another bruise to add to the one which was already starting to form on his cheek. But far more than just the billionaire’s skin had been bruised. This went much deeper than just skin level. His ego. His pride. His friendship.But he just stared at Leo in utter shock. Stupefied. Too stunned to move or react as the blood began to drip down from his busted lip. Leo had called it when he thought this night would have blood.“I gave you more than enough fair warnings Grayson. You won’t talk about her that way. I won’t tolerate your disrespect.”Grayson swallowed hard, “Well it’s good to know where you firmly stand Leo.”With those words Grayson simply turned and walked out of the bathroom. Leo’s chest still heaved; his fist still clenched for several seconds after the bil
Leo and Amberleigh didn’t talk much while they set about the task of cleaning up the mess. But they both knew this mess wasn’t so easily fixed in all ways possible. Of course, Leo wouldn’t let Amber climb up on the ladder to help cover the busted-out windows with plastic, so she focused her efforts on the ground. Leo kept rolls of plastic around the warehouse because a broken window was a common occurrence with so many of them. Between the California weather, earthquakes, occasionally a bored teenager, and once an apparently blind seagull, the chef found himself making insurance claims. A small price to pay though all things considered to have the ultimate bachelor pad.Luckily, the power had come back on rather quickly, though Amber would have been content to make love to Leo by candlelight. Well at least they had intended to make love after they dealt with the mess, but it soon had drifted more towards fucking. Because Amber took her frustrations out on Leo. Not that the sexy chef
Leo had gone so quiet, Amberleigh assumed he must have fallen asleep. Her head still rested upon his damp chest, his heartbeat steady in her ear. She found her own eyes closing when Leo abruptly sat back up and turned on the lamp.“Hey, hear me out even though this may sound a bit crazy, but what if you and I just took off for a while? Pick anywhere in the world you’ve always wanted to go and just do it. Some time away from all this shit would probably do us both a world of good.”Amber couldn’t help but smile at the excitement on the chef’s face. She entertained the idea for a few seconds. She was still early enough in her pregnancy for air travel to be relatively safe. And it wasn’t as though she had a fucking job right now. But Leo had responsibilities in Omega City. And family unlike her.“Leo, I appreciate the offer and it’s tempting as fuck. But Christmas is coming up and I figured you’d want to celebrate it with your mom at least.”He shook his head, “My mom won’t even be in to
Amberleigh thought about those romcom movies where the hot as fuck rich guy whisks the girl off on a dream trip of a lifetime full of fine dining, shopping at pricy boutiques, and steamy hot nights of wine, chocolate covered strawberries and amazing sex. Well, her own fantasy trip didn’t quite start out that way. But she still held out high hopes for amazing sex and chocolate covered strawberries at some point.Not that sweet Leo hadn’t tried to make it a trip she would never forget right from the start. He charted a fucking jet for just the two of them which didn’t come cheap. It was better that way, that no one else had to witness Amber’s puking her guts up on the five separate occasions it occurred during their eleven-hour flight.Leo apologized like it was his fault. Amber was feeling a bit salty and queasy, as it had been his idea, and almost agreed with him out loud. In his favor, the chef did try and make her feel better, even taking over the plane’s galley at one point to whip
Amberleigh awoke to a delightful breakfast in bed on her first morning in Paris. Even more delicious than the buttery, flaky croissants, cheeses, fruit, and hazelnut spread, was the half-naked chef waiting on her hand and foot. Leo wore nothing but a pair of well-fitting linen slacks, as the morning sunshine hit upon his tight torso just right. She quickly put her tray aside and pulled her chef into bed with her instead.Leo was more than willing to indulge her every tastes this morning indeed as she naughtily smeared the hazelnut spread across his broad chest and licked every last trace of it off him. She could already feel his bulge trying to burst free from his slacks as it pressed against her pussy. Her body grinded against his while she ate her breakfast off his skin. She licked her lips greedily as she couldn’t seem to get enough.She took great care to suck the chocolate from his nipples, then skimmed her tongue down the center of his hard abs until she reached the top of his
