by Kimber Lee
I groaned as I stubbed my toe on the corner of my bed before zipping up my pencil skirt and tucking the shirt in neatly. “Ames, I’m so sorry. He’s already called me in to fill out some paperwork that needed to be mailed by tonight, apparently. I’m so sorry, raincheck?” I asked as I pulled my semi-dry hair into a sleek pony tail and applying a coat of light pink lipstick. Thank god I had natural ringlets that didn’t frizz after every shower I had.
“Already? Damn, girl, you’re going to have your work cut out for you! Don’t apologise, it was your celebration drink, you banana!” She laughed, before gasping. “You better be wearing sexy lingerie! Late nights alone in the office with a sex god? I think I can predict what’s going to happen.” I could practically feel Amy wink as I rolled my eyes and put my black pumps on and grabbed the bag I prepared once I got home.
“Amy, get your mind out of the gutter,” I joked. “Anyway, I have to go. He expects me to be there in less than half an hour. I’m so sorry for cancelling on you, girls. I’ll make it up to you guys, I promise!”
Amy scoffed. “Shut up! You’re putting the blame on yourself as if you don’t have a good enough reason to be cancelling! Say hi to the sexy beast for me, will you? I’ll let you go now because you’ve just wasted 5 minutes talking to me.”
“I’m a woman. Multi-tasking is in our blood,” I laughed. “I’m leaving my apartment now. Love you!”
We both disconnected the phone and I made my way to call the nearest cab.
This is how it all began.

Acknowledgement
Firstly, a big thank-you to my parents for encouraging me to read and write (even though I occasionally wrote in my reading books). Without your support, I wouldn’t be so passionate about what I do today. Thanks for loaning me your laptops, by the way!
A big thank-you goes to my English teachers over the years, who would have heart palpitations if they ever read my work. You women were incredible to me, and one day, I will tell you this in person.
I think it’s fair to say that every one of my followers on Wattpad deserves a shout-out. There are too many of you lovely ladies with filthy minds to name but I hope you know how much you mean to me. Every message/comment/vote/anecdote meant a great deal to me, and I know Andrei and Rainelle’s story wouldn’t be shared with the world if it weren’t for you special bunch of people. I love you so much, Kimberlions. Thank you.
A huge thank you to everyone at BLVNP for seeing something in my book. Le-an Lai Lacaba deserves a special mention because she is epic and I am so privileged to be able to work with her. Her enthusiasm is contagious!
Lastly, thank you to you, the reader, for giving my story a chance. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it. A lot of the places in here are fictional. Sometimes you can find love in imaginary places.
About the author
Kimber Lee comes from South Africa and commutes to class on an elephant named Bill (not really). She started writing horror stories as a child and now, she writes erotica as an adult. Her favorite kind of hero is exotic and probably has a heavy accent. He's weak when it comes to the heroine and a total badass outside the bedroom.
If Kimber Lee could find a surgical way to be permanently joined to her laptop, she would. But until then, she'll continue to be a night owl and write until dawn. When forced into daylight, she enjoys reading scary stories, Indian food and EDM. She dreams of going to Gre
ece or Sweden because... accents. Oh, and the scenery.
