A knock on my office door startled me and I looked up just in time to see the last person I expected at my workspace.

"Hello, dolcezza. How's your day going?" He invited himself in without asking me anything as I knew he rendered me speechless from the unexpected appearance he made of himself at my office. He settled down comfortably on the couch and smiled softly at me like we were in a healthy, happy relationship and he just came here to give his lover a surprise visit! Damn him…

"What the hell are you doing here?" I asked coldly and he shook his head in amusement.

"Last time after you asked the same question, I made love to you on your couch!" He winked at me.

"Isabella, a hard-working businesswoman who wants nothing more but to get rid of her past....


Alexander, an arrogant billionaire who wants nothing more but to make Isabella never forget her past!"

Mister Insistent

I was working on the laptop in the study when my phone started ringing. I saw the caller ID and my eyebrows knitted together. 


“May I ask why I got lucky enough to get your call?” I demanded after accepting the call. 


“To ask you where do you hide my sister?!” He growled. 


“I think you’re drunk right now. We’ll talk tomorrow, okay. Now go to sleep!” I mocked. 


“Oh please, stop this nonsense because I’m serious Alexander. Tell me where she is and I’ll leave you alone.” He demanded and I sat up straight. 


“What are you talking about? When I left, she was in her room.” 


“She’s not there. I went to her room to talk to her but she had already left with her bag.” He explained. 


“Maybe she returned back to NYC, early?!” I presumed and he tsked. 


“No, I checked all the flight data and her name isn’t on any list.” He was desperate and sounded agitated.
