We stood there. Tracing each other's scars. We wondered to ourselves the story behind them. But neither of us were willing to share. Why wasn't it simple? Why couldn't we just trust each other? Because we couldn't even trust ourselves.

We weren't connecting because we liked each other, we were connecting because we both needed a way out. We were connecting because we both needed a reassurance about love. I'm not sure what this means for us. Our future. All I know is I'll never forget this moment. Because in this moment I felt a spark of hope, and a bit of me open up, without even saying anything. And I know she felt it too.

Dylan Bates is training to take his father's billion dollar business for when he retires.  He has done nothing but business related things all his life and has given up on anything else since the accident.

Rebekah Brooks has been pushed around by her family and is basically taking care of her little sister. Just a few more months and she can fight for legal custody. 

When Rebekah does something completely insane and gets caught by Dylan she is given two choices. Work for him for six months to pay off the damage, or jail. With both of them coming from scarring pasts, they both have to learn to lean on each other for love, and hope.

Because in six months, everything changes.

He says and Dylan looks away. "Dylan. He's right." Brett says and Dylan grumbles. "You like my sister don't you?" Ashley asks and his body stiffens. "Not exactly." He sighs and a sad smile spreads over Ashleys face. "Finally someone worthy enough. So far." She says and Dylans face grows hot so he looks at the floor. "I promise I'll save her.

"So what, you're talking friends with benefits?" "If you really want to put a label on it," I rolled my eyes and leaned back in my seat. "Think of it as two good friends being there for each other whenever they need to be. I'll be honest, you're the first woman I've met that can match my energy in bed, so I think we owe it to ourselves to... explore each other in the best ways possible." Her smile widened, but she didn't respond right away. Instead, she took another slow sip of her wine, savoring it as she held my gaze. The unspoken challenge hung in the air between us, making it clear that whatever happened next, it was going to be on her terms-and I was more than willing to play along. "Just friends, no strings attached?" "Not unless you like being tied up, Dimples," I chuckled, staring into her captivating eyes. "And trust me, I'd be the best friend in the world." *** Meyson Maddox knew better than to let just any woman get close to him. With the lifestyle he led and the influence of his last name, he knew he had to be careful. His golden rule was to hit and dip - no attachments, no expectations. Until he broke his rule for her. Christina Carter had always been by herself. After the traumatic divorce, her parents went through, the last thing she was looking for was love. She saw the damage it did and wanted nothing of it, so when Meyson came up with the idea of sex no strings attached, it worked perfectly. Until it didn't. But all's fair in lust and war, right? ---- Copyright ©️ Ashleigh Reeds 2024 All rights reserved.
