The Billionaire's Fake Marriage (A Romance Collection Boxed Set)

Sasha smiled in approval at Daniel’s taste in cars. The silver Mercedes AMG GTS was sporty and fast.
“Nice car,” she smiled as he drove away from her apartment and into town.
“I like German engineering.”
Figures, Sasha thought as they moved into traffic and headed to Midtown.
When they arrived at Masa, Sasha’s eyes widened at the beautifully simple décor, as they were escorted to a private table away from other guests.
“I hope you’re hungry,” Daniel smiled as they looked at the set menu. Sasha had never eaten in Masa before but had heard so much about the amazing food that she could barely wait to get started.
They ordered sake for the table and waited as the starters were brought out. Small dishes of seaweed, cucumber and clam salad, Toro tartar topped with caviar and a pike eel hot pot in a rich sauce served with bread arrived, and they both moaned and gasped as they worked their way through the taste sensations being presented to them.
“This is absolutely delicious, Mr. Warrington,” Sasha said pointedly.
Daniel’s mouth quirked up in a crooked smile. “Please. You’ve already broken the cardinal sin of using my first name in front of the board and my employees. Just call me Daniel. At least while we’re not at work.”
Sasha sipped her sake and crossed her legs under the table. “Okay then, Daniel. So, where do you want to start with the merger?”
“No. Let’s not. Why don’t we enjoy our meal and each other’s company? There’s plenty of time to talk business later.”
Relaxing visibly, Sasha nodded her head. “I can agree to that.”
“Wow, so there are some things you agree with?” Daniel teased and they both laughed.
After the exquisite starters, the sushi arrived and they began tasting the tiny, perfectly prepared morsels.
“Oh my gosh, you have got to try the sea bream,” Sasha exclaimed, before picking some up in her chopsticks and holding it out for Daniel to try. Bemused, Daniel leaned forward and took the sushi into his mouth.
“Wow,” he agreed, chewing the delicately fragranced fish. “That’s the first time someone’s tried to feed me since I was a child.”
Sasha’s hand flew up to her mouth in embarrassment. “Oh, I’m sorry. For a moment I completely forgot that you’re Daniel Warrington and I fed you like you were one of my friends. I’m so embarrassed. I really don’t know what I did with my manners. Can you see them for me? Are they down by your chair?”
Daniel laughed and pretended to look on the floor beside his chair. “No, they’re definitely not there. I think you might have left them in the cloakroom.”
“Well, damn,” Sasha grinned, lifting another piece of sushi up for Daniel to try. He smiled at her as he ate the succulent roll then wiped his face with his napkin. Sasha regarded him with her eyes narrowed.
“You’re really not so bad, are you?”
“What do you mean?”
“Well, when you invited me out for dinner I thought you would be stiff as a board, just like you are at work. But you’re actually quite a lot of fun. I never figured you for having a sense of humor.”
Daniel’s face looked thunderous and he slammed his chopsticks down, which made Sasha realize that perhaps she had gone a little bit too far. Again, her hand flew up to her mouth.
“Shit. I’m so sorry. That was really rude.”
Suddenly Daniel burst out laughing, a loud raucous laugh, and he shook his head as he struggled to speak. “If you could see your face!”
Realizing she had been played, Sasha’s cheeks reddened and she pouted her lips at him. He stopped laughing as he began to think about kissing those juicy lips again.
“Ahem, yes, well. You are really quite forward with your views, aren’t you?”
“I guess so. I’ve always been like this. I say it like it is.”
“I’m not used to that.”
Sasha leaned back in her chair. “I can see that. I’m sorry if I upset your applecart.”
Daniel groaned at the cliché and they both laughed again.
“So what do you do to relax? When you’re not running Warrington Enterprises singlehandedly?”
“I work out. I watch movies. I eat. I sleep. Normal things.”
“Daniel Warrington watches movies?” Sasha gasped theatrically.
“Well I do have a cinema room and can watch movies that are in the theaters in the privacy of my own home.”
“That’s so cool,” Sasha nodded enviously. “Although I guess it must suck sometimes, not being able to go to the cinema like any normal person.”
“Why would it suck? I’ve never known any different.” Daniel leaned forward on his elbow and drank his sake. “I’m lucky to have been brought up in the world I live in. All I’ve known is privilege. I can’t miss what I’ve not had.”
“Don’t you get lonely?”
“Why would you think that?” Daniel frowned, confused.
“I don’t know. You never seem to be in the newspapers with your arm round some supermodel.”
“Just because I don’t get caught by the paparazzi doesn’t mean I’m not having fun. Look where I am tonight. In the best restaurant in New York, with the most beautiful woman I’ve seen in years.”
Sasha drew her breath in sharply. She hadn’t expected this. Suddenly feeling shy, she looked down at the table. Daniel’s hand reached out and he touched her chin.
“Look at me, Sasha.”
He tilted her chin and she looked him in the eyes. He was staring at her as though he wanted her. Her pulse jumped in her neck and she could feel her heartbeat in her ears. If the pressure didn’t release soon, she felt like she was going to explode.
“Your eyes…” she whispered, and trailed off. Daniel simply smiled at her.
“Shall we go somewhere more private?”
Sasha could only nod as he held her gaze. Sitting back in his chair, he signaled for the waiter to bring the bill. Sasha continued to watch him as he paid the bill and then rose from her chair and allowed him to rest his arm on her back as he escorted her from the restaurant.
When they reached the car, Daniel turned and took hold of her face in both hands.
“I’ve been meaning to do this since this morning,” he said softly, as he leaned in and gently parted her lips with his own, nipping her bottom lip between his teeth before kissing her softly.
A soft moan escaped Sasha’s mouth as she leaned into his kiss, her lips parting to allow him to access her further. His tongue darted inside her mouth and his hand trailed down her back to her ass, as he pulled her body closer to his. She could feel that he was already aroused and this realization made her kiss him back hungrily, as she felt her inner muscles clenching at the thought of him being inside her.
Pulling apart, they got into the car and Daniel drove uptown to his apartment. He parked the car in the garage under the building and they rode up in his private elevator to the top floor. They were greeted at the door by his butler, who took a drinks order from them and retired to his bedroom.
Sasha sat on a dark gray sofa, sipping her drink. As soon as the butler disappeared, Daniel pulled her up and led her to his own bedroom. She stood in the doorway and admired the view over New York. The room itself was large with pale stone colored walls on two sides. The other two walls were glass from floor to ceiling, framed with blinds that had been left open.
Sasha walked over to the window and looked out at the lights below.
“You’re lucky.”
“In more ways than one,” Daniel agreed, as he slid his arms around her waist from behind and planted soft kisses along her shoulder.
She turned round to face him and he looked at her in wonder. “God, you’re beautiful,” he whispered, as her mouth devoured his in a deep, passionate kiss.
He continued to kiss her as he led her towards the bed, pushing her gently on top of the soft white Egyptian cotton comforter. He climbed on top of her as she laid back and he held her hands down as he l
eaned in to kiss her over and over. Sasha’s back arched as she moaned into his lips and her legs curled around his back.
“Someone is eager,” Daniel breathed into Sasha’s ear as he snaked his hand down to feel her pubic mound over her soft silk panties. “I trust you have as exquisite a taste in lingerie as I imagine you to have,” he smirked as he sat up then nodded appreciatively at the silk panties and garter belt holding up her seamed stockings. He kissed along the bare piece of skin between the garter belt and stockings, a move that made her shiver and gasp loudly.
“Seamed stockings, eh? I noticed you wear those every day at work. It’s not often a woman goes to the trouble of wearing such alluring hosiery these days.”
“I like to feel good under my clothes. Vintage lingerie is far more elegant than the modern styles most women wear,” Sasha breathed as Daniel’s fingers circled ever closer to her opening.
“It’s such as shame that you have soiled your panties this evening. I wonder what caused that.” Daniel whispered teasingly as he bent closer to sniff her juices.
“Ah, I wonder, indeed!” Sasha said and then trailed off into a loud, shuddering sigh as Daniel’s teeth brushed her panties aside and his tongue lapped up her labia.
Sasha’s hips rose to meet Daniel’s face as he buried it inside her lips, gently kissing and licking the soft, hairless flesh. He paused to admire the silky skin.
“I would never have imagined you to have no hair down here.”
“Like I said, I like to feel nice.”
Then Sasha laughed as she thought of the ludicrous situation she was in, discussing her genital grooming preferences with her billionaire boss. He soon showed her it was no laughing matter however, as he began to lap at the skin around her clitoris and she began to lose herself in the sensations of his hot wet tongue teasing the nub out of its hiding hole. When he had skillfully brought her to the edge several times and eased off each time leaving her uttering profanities at him, he finally teased around her clitoris until she grasped at the bed covers, threw her head back and bucked wildly as the orgasm ripped through her body.
Daniel didn’t let up and continued to lap at her soft, wet juices as she writhed from the aftershocks, closed her eyes and relaxed into the sensations.
Finally, after climbing down from the release, she opened her eyes to note that Daniel had stripped naked. He was standing beside her in all his glory. Sasha sat up and rested on her elbows and looked at him stroking his cock.
She was shocked that the uptight Mr. Billionaire had some tattoos on his chest and arms. He was toned but not overly muscled, and had a tan which was fading from a prior vacation. She couldn’t imagine him ever taking vacations.
Daniel looked down at the woman lying on his bed. It was unusual for the women in his room to still be fully clothed and for him to be naked. Usually it was the other way round. There seemed to be something different about this particular woman. She looked so alluring with that vintage look that she favored. So prim and proper, a Little Miss Know It All, but underneath it all he knew she was just dying for someone to take her in hand. Tonight, that would be him.
“Take off your clothes,” Daniel commanded.
Sasha’s left eyebrow rose at the command, but she stood and languorously peeled off her dress. As it fell to the floor, Daniel traced her skin with his eyes.
“The underwear too.”
Sasha unclipped her stockings and rolled them down, careful to show off her long, lean limbs as she did so. She knew that she was teasing Daniel but it excited her that he was obviously so attracted. Finally, she slipped off her bra and panties and they stood in front of one another, waiting.
Daniel moved first and stepped so close to Sasha that she stumbled backwards. He caught her with one hand around her waist and the other hand snaked around her hair, grasped it tight and moved her head upwards so that he could devour her mouth. Holding her in place, he invaded her mouth with his tongue and she groaned as her body collapsed against him.
Still grasping her hair, he manipulated her so that she was backed against the wall. Then he turned her around and pushed her hands on to the wall, then pulled her ass outwards so she was bent slightly at the waist. Grabbing her hips, he slid his long, thick cock slowly to the tip of her vulva, teasing her until she was begging him to go inside.
When he finally slid inside they both groaned as her tight walls gave way to allow him to slide his shaft deep inside her. As Daniel slowly began to rotate his hips to pull himself all the way back out, he danced his fingers gently across her back, making her emit tiny yips before he finally settled his hands on her shoulders.
Sasha pleaded with him as his cock grazed her vulva again before plunging it slowly and deeply inside her. She had never had anyone tease her in this way, having only been used to men using the ‘wham bam thank you ma’am’ method on her before. She couldn’t understand how Daniel could resist the urge to just fuck her frenetically but she didn’t want the long slow tease to stop as every time he pulled out, the nerve endings at the entrance to her vagina were teased and sent her closer to the edge.
Once again a deep orgasm ripped through Sasha’s body and her inner muscles milked Daniel’s cock. Finally, he began to increase the pace and as Sasha continued to orgasm, her tight walls pulsed around him and brought him to the edge of release. When he came it was with a deep, guttural growl and Sasha was still writhing against him as he collapsed against her back.
Wrapping his arms around her body, he pulled her close to him. Maneuvering them to the bed, he collapsed and pulled her towards him so that he could kiss her. Sasha’s cheeks were red with exertion, her lips plump and full. Her eyes were fluttering open and shut and she couldn’t manage more than a few grunts when Daniel asked her if she was okay.
“You like being teased like that, don’t you?”
Sasha nodded and murmured her agreement.
“Good girl,” Daniel smiled, while stroking her hair.
“I like being a good girl,” Sasha mumbled, feeling more than a little squirmy inside. She could definitely go another round with this man. All night long if he made her feel like he had just done.
“Oh you do, do you?”
“Mhmmm,” Sasha replied lazily.
“Do you like being told what to do?” Daniel propped himself up to look at Sasha.
“Sometimes. It depends on what I get in return.”
“Oh, I see, so it’s not just the idea of being a good girl for being a good girl’s sake? You want something in return?”
Sasha popped one eye open. “Well, if I’m going to be a good girl, then I expect to be rewarded for being a good girl.”
Daniel traced his fingers down Sasha’s body towards her mound. He caressed the soft skin and then dipped his fingers inside to find her clitoris. She moaned as he grazed the still-sensitive skin.
“What kind of reward do you like?”
“This is good,” Sasha giggled.
“Would you like to be my good girl?”
“What do you mean?” She moaned as her back arched.
“Well, if you were to be a good girl for me, I could reward you very nicely.”
Sasha bucked her hips towards Daniel’s fingers. “I’m listening,” she shuddered as he teased her clit.
Daniel moved his body over hers so that they were face to face. His fingers pressed a little harder on her clit, causing her to gasp.
“Well, let’s see. There’s a little issue you and I have been grappling with,” he whispered as he teased her closer to the edge. “The merger.”
“What about it?” Sasha gasped, distracted by his fingers dancing quickly across the sensitized skin.
“Well, in order for you to be my good girl, which I know you really want…well, I would need you to back off on your ideas about the merger. Do you understand what I’m getting at?”
Sasha squirmed as his finger pressed firmly into her clit, sending her nearly over the edge. She froze mid-squirm and her hand flew down, clampi
ng on top of his.
“Stop!”
Sasha wrenched Daniel’s hand away from her and pushed him away. Scrambling, she jumped off the bed and looked down at Daniel’s confused face in disgust.
“So that’s what this whole thing has been about?”
“What?” Daniel asked smoothly.
“This! Inviting me to dinner, bringing me here, seducing me. All in the hope I would recant my findings on the bank merger. Un-fucking-believable!”
Daniel cleared his throat and looked up at her innocently. “What on earth are you talking about?”
“Oh you little– How dare you! Did you really think that you could seduce me into doing what you want? I am employed by your company to research and give honest results based on years of experience working in this sector. I gave my findings to you at the board meeting. If this merger goes ahead, you stand to lose millions, and you could ruin a wonderful company which is getting on just nicely without your draconian dictatorial ways.”
Sasha began to pace the room, gathering up her clothes. She pulled on her bra and panties and slipped into her dress.
“You are unbelievable. How dare you!”
“How dare I?” Daniel repeated, mockingly.
“My God! I thought you were being sincere, that you actually liked me. And all this, was just a ruse to get me to do your bidding. You are sick, Daniel Warrington! Sick!”
Daniel stood up and grabbed her wrists.
“Let go of me!” She screamed, wrenching her wrists free. “Get away from me.”
“Oh, grow up!” Daniel spat. “It was worth a shot. I’ve worked this whole year trying to get this merger to go through. The last thing I needed was you coming in and messing the whole thing up, Miss Goody Two Shoes.”
“You really don’t care about anything other than money, do you?” Sasha shouted.
“Well, that’s how I got where I am today. This is me. As I said, it was worth a shot.”
Sasha stared at him in disgust. “Worth a shot? Jesus, you seduced me just because of your merger? I feel sick!”
