The Billionaire's Devotion

(Excerpt—) Their faces were still inches apart, breaths entangling. Instead of her lips, he kissed her on the cheek before pulling away to look at her. She wasn't looking at him anymore. She had trained her eyes on the view outside the window. "We could try again," Jacob said. "I don't know what you want from me." Sutton replied in a quiet voice. "I'll keep my word this time around. Six months and I'll set you free, Sutton Price."  Sutton wasn't listening anymore. Something else was on her mind. She brought her eyes to him again, and her next words were not what he expected. "What really happened to Perseus Castle?"  Jacob's hand fell away from Sutton's. His adam apple bobbed as he searched her face.

Anika Justice...

Anika's return was quiet. No one knew about it except Saint. She called him to pick her up and escort her, just in case someone was on her tail. Since she heard about the attack at the penthouse and on Elias, coupled with the shoot out that occurred at the hospital, she had been on the edge and constantly looking over her shoulder, not knowing when they would come for her.

Saint took her to the facility. The rest of the crew was present. It didn't take a prophet to reveal the tension hovering over the entire building. Her first point of call was to see if Nicole was alive. She wouldn't put it past Jacob to end her life for coming to New York without his consent. Nicole was alive and well. There was no need for her to worry. She caught up with Nicole on the things she had missed.
