All I Ask of You Heron’s Landing Book 2

I Slapped My Fiancé-Then Married His Billionaire Nemesis

Jessica C. Dolan

Being second best is practically in my DNA. My sister got the love, the attention, the spotlight. And now, even her damn fiancé. Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now-billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn't mind. I'd crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one? Wrong. One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That's when it hit me-he didn't love me. He didn't even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn't even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup. So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster-my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise. Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol. Enter him. Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I'd met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes. It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised. But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life. And, as it turned out, the best decision I'd ever made. Because my one-night stand isn't just some random guy. He's richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with. And now, he's not letting me go.

Kylie's POV

My throat hurts, my back aches and my stomach started to growl. I opened my eyes, light suddenly blinded me. I raised my hand to block the light coming from somewhere. After adjusting my vision from the blinding light I looked at where I was.

I was shocked to see that I was inside a room. Even though it's not big, you can't say it's small either.

Where am I? What is this place?

My brain is confused. I kept on thinking about what happened last night. I thought I was in Verona. It's like I was just talking to Aunt Vane last night. How come, I'm here? How come I'm in this unfamiliar bed? Why am I lying here? Am I in Spain already?

My head throbbed so hard that I caught it suddenly. I feel like my head's gone burst. Aaaagh! What the hell?! I just felt this headache again. I reached for the pillow and covered it over my face. Block the light! Block the light, Kylie!

I closed my eyes tightly and let the pain in my head pass. I think I didn't move for about ten minutes. I just fell on the pillow.

When I felt my headache disappear, I opened my eyes again.

I tried to get up from the bed and that's when I noticed that I wasn't wearing pants or any underwear. Anything to cover up my legs. My eyes immediately widened.

"What the hell?!"

Why don't I have bottoms? Did someone rape me Omg?! I immediately groped my whole body and felt if there was anything strange and by God's mercy I did not feel anything strange like not even the sensitive parts of my body and it was still felt the same.

I immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Bataan is still safe.

I looked at my underwear and frowned when I saw that I was wearing briefs wtf I mean, I'm wearing men's underwear and I don't know whose it is?.

Omg! Don't Tell me kay--

This is..! This is... Thurstin's!!

I stood up as the past that happened between the two of us flowed through my memory.

The airplane, Nordint, the incident at Dora, and those guys who are chasing us then... then... what happened after? Aah! When Thurstin and I ran out of gas on our way to Laayoune. Then we saw a truck where the Spanish couple was. We got in the truck and...

I scratched my head.

What I remember is that I slept next to Thurstin. I think I felt worse in the middle of it. snap! I think I have a fever too.

I looked around the room.

Then Thurstin and I also arrived in Laayoune and we can stay in an old hotel. The question is, where is Thurstin?

My stomach was growling and that's when I saw a bowl on a table. When I looked at it, I saw that there was porridge in the bowl. There is also bread on the side and medicine pills.

Wow! Did Thurstin prepare this for me?

I took the spoon and immediately took a bite of the porridge. It's not hot anymore and the taste is a bit bland but it's okay. I'm too hungry to complain.
