His Priority (Book 1)
"Look," he said sternly, his green eyes blazing with anger as he looked down at the small woman before him. The dark skin that covered her body made him want to reach out and lose himself completely in her beauty and those dark chocolate eyes weren't helping. He gave a frustrated sigh when she stared up at him with an innocence only she would have. "I don't like this anymore than you do, but for the time being you're going to have to stay with me, just until the chaos dies down." She crossed her perfectly toned arms across her small chest and frowned. "This isn't my fault," she huffed, "You lied to me. I - I didn't know you were famous!" - - - What was meant to be a simple one night stand just to show her friends that she wasn't always a goody two shoes ended up turning her life upside down thanks to a certain rockstar.

His Favorite Piece Of Art
"𝐿𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡 𝑖𝑠 𝑒𝑎𝑠𝑦 𝑡𝑜 𝑙𝑜𝑣𝑒, 𝑠ℎ𝑜𝑤 𝑚𝑒 𝑦𝑜𝑢𝑟 𝑑𝑎𝑟𝑘𝑛𝑒𝑠𝑠" - 𝑅. 𝑄𝑢𝑒𝑒𝑛 ______________________________ "I can help with that" Alexander lets out as he watches Bella fiddling with the strings of her top. Shocked, Bella stills for a second before she absently blurts out a quiet "Okay" Alexander walks towards her after getting her permission and takes the strings in his hands. As he undoes the crossed pattern, his fingers brush against her skin and almost reveal her generous chest. "W-what are you doing?" She asks in a whisper as she holds the top so it doesn't open completely and reveals herself to him. "I'm fixing it" His deep husky voice only worsens her state and accelerates her heartbeat. ______________________________ What could you expect when the whole college art department is invited to an exhibition of an famous photographer? Some would say a night to pass some hours and enjoy art, some might even say a boring way to pass your Saturday night because the art turned out to be something that they don't like. But for Bella it was all but that. She didn't expect to connect with his art in more ways than profesional. She didn't expect to cry over it because it brought back some memories. But what she definitely didn't expect is an job offer, a sweet male companion and a possible lover. But did these two connect simply because they have same interests? Or did fate tangled her fingers into their lives?
