Out of Time

Madison My best friend and neighbor, Piper, is trying to arrange a blind date for me. I agree because she doesn’t take no as an answer. But why won’t she tell me his name? Anyway, it is just for tonight and I want to have some fun? Liam I managed to stay away from her for years because I’m no good for her. Will I have the strength to keep my hands off her one more time? ******** When Madison left her secure and stable job in the financial industry for an uncertain position within a startup, she regretted nothing. Well almost nothing. She regretted that she will not be seeing her CEO Liam Carver anymore. Liam is a big player both in business and in private affairs. He is a billionaire, always on the move for the next new venture. She knew she was not his type but catching a glimpse of him while he passed through her section on the way to his next meeting, was more than enough to make her day. Three years later Madison has a new life and new friends and life couldn’t be better. But she never forgot the gorgeous looking ex CEO. Liam can’t believe his luck when he discovers that the mysterious neighbor is Madison. She worked for him a few years ago, but that is not the reason why he remembered her. Madison was the most beautiful woman he ever saw and the only one he will not let himself touch. Torn between his inner demon and the desire to see her again, the pull towards her makes him accept Piper’s matchmaking offer to hook him up on this blind date. Well not so blind for him because he exactly knows what he is getting into… Or doesn’t he?

Chapter 33

“You know what?” Liam appears in my office just as I was finishing my work for the day. He continues before I have a chance to say anything. “Let's leave Denver tonight.” After all that happened this week, this suggestion is heaven sent.

“I’d actually love that.” I reply, honestly.

Going home, going to my safe place is exactly what I need. He watches me intensely looking like a cartoon cat who just swallowed a bird. And now it's trying to hide it, something is going on.

“I'm almost done for today, but I can deal with everything on the way. Can you go now?” He asks.

“Yeah, sure. Give me five minutes.” I reply.

“See you in five.” He winks at me and disappears from my office as quickly as he materialized there. Minutes later, we are in the car. He pulls me closer. Turning his body in my direction. While I nestle my head in the crook of his neck. This is becoming my favorite place to be.

“Are we going to your house to collect your things?”
