Forever and Ever, My Greek Billionaire

by Marian Tee

  “You don’t have any history with my wife,” Damen corrected mildly. “Remember it that way please.”

  Stavros was this close to strangling his friend, who at that moment wasn’t much of a friend at all. “Will you just fucking tell me if you know—”

  Damen said quietly, “She’s in the garden. She’s been waiting for you there every damn day since she got here.”

  He found her writing in the gazebo. Her hair was swept up in a careless chignon, her curvy body sheathed in a loose white dress. She would have made a perfect Regency photo if not for the fact that she had her legs up on the table while chewing on her lip and writing on her notepad.

  For just one long moment, he allowed himself to look at her.

  He looked at her, and his heart loved.

  He loved her.

  And she loved him.

  She had loved him so goddamn much she had hatched the greatest ruse on Earth just to make him see the truth. She had goddamn made herself lie on the road, still as a fucking corpse, and let him run over her again and again until he got his head out of his ass and his eyes were no longer blind.

  She loved him.

  She loved him so much that seeing her now, seeing how damn beautiful she was, Stavros was no longer certain if it was the right thing to be back in her life.

  But almost as if she had heard his thought, Willow looked up. Even without hearing any footsteps it was as if she had sensed him, her eyes finding him like they were always meant to see him.

  And the moment she did, she started to cry.

  Slowly, he made his way to her.

  It was the longest damn walk in his life, simply because he felt that with every step he took, he was being selfish. He would be happy with her, but would she really be happy with him? After everything he had done?

  He climbed the steps of the gazebo and stopped before her.

  And it was almost as if she had heard him thinking again, or maybe their hearts shared all its secrets. Whatever the reason, she knew. She looked up at him, and crying, she asked him the one thing that made Stavros realize nothing would hurt him more than losing her.

  “Stavros.” She reached for his face and sobbed harder at the feel of his skin against her palm. “What took you so long?”

  No recriminations, no questions, nothing except the purest form of love.

  Stavros sank to his knees. “Forgive me.”

  She shook her head. “Nothing to forgive,” she whispered. “But you know now, don’t you?” Her voice caught. “I love you.”

  The words washed over him, three words that swept away all the pain of the past and opened his world to the dreams he could now enjoy...with her.

  She made him look at her, and her tears became endless when she found Stavros’ own face wet. “I love you, Stavros. I love you.”

  He kissed her. “I love you.” It was the only thing he needed to say, the only thing she wanted to hear.

  And everything was all right.

  Epilogue

  Three Months Later

  It was the second day of their honeymoon, but they weren’t spending it anywhere but home. For Stavros and Willow Manolis, the perfect definition of a honeymoon was to be together and have the freedom to love each other.

  Today, it was her turn to make him do whatever she wanted, which was why she was doubled over laughing so hard she couldn’t manage to keep her hand steady while holding the camcorder.

  “Will you stop laughing and get this over with?” Stavros grated out.

  She laughed harder.

  In front of her, Stavros was dressed like a Korean pop star, his hair gel-styled to stand three inches up, his shirt one size too small, and his cropped pants a pretty shade of pink to match his wondrously stylish oxfords.

  For today, she had requested him to act out a scene from her favorite K-drama. He was going to play a rich and powerful scion, who also happened to be arrogant and dumb.

  “Okay, I’m going to start recording now...”

  But she was laughing again.

  Goddammit. The things he did for this woman...

  He looked at Willow, and his chest tightened at the happiness on her face.

  The things he did for this woman, he would do a thousand times again and again, just to have her smiling like that.

  He loved her. She loved him. It was all that mattered...but it did not mean he was above revenge.

  That night, it was Stavros’ turn to have his own fantasy acted out by Willow. He had asked her to wear a stewardess’ uniform then come out of their room blindfolded.

  “You’re beginning to make me nervous,” she told him.

  “Just relax, sweetheart. You know I’ll never do anything you don’t want.”

  “That’s not making me any less nervous.” Willow tried to keep still as Stavros ushered her inside the car. It was a tense ten-minute ride, and when they arrived at their destination, Stavros carefully helped her out. After, he placed her hand on something hard and plastic.

  He took her blindfold off.

  She looked down. A wheeled suitcase? Were they going somewhere and she was to play his own personal stewardess?

  She looked around her. They were in an...airport. A rather busy airport, with everyone doing their own thing, but strangely, no one was looking at them.

  “Umm...” She cleared her throat. “You want me to be your own stewardess?”

  “Not quite.”

  It was a very vague answer, and the way Stavros was smirking at her only increased Willow’s nervousness. Damn Greek billionaires and their money. “I give up. What’s this about?”

  In answer, Stavros gestured towards an airport shuttle and it immediately drove towards them. “After you, Mrs. Manolis. And yes, bring your suitcase.”

  So she did and climbed up, grunting at the weight of her luggage. “You really had to make it realistic, didn’t you?”

  Stavros only laughed but didn’t make any move to help her.

  The shuttle was completely occupied. Normally people immediately parted at first sight of Stavros, either because they knew who he was or because he looked that scary. But this time, no one moved, forcing her to mumble ‘excuse me’ over and over until she made it to the back, where there was just one last vacant pole for her to hold on to.

  Stavros reached her side just as she was wheeling her luggage out of the way.

  She looked up at him. “Now what?”

  The shuttle started to move.

  Wickedness gleamed in her husband’s eyes, and just like that, it started, her pussy throbbing, the creaminess leaking out.

  His lips touched her ear, making her shiver.

  He murmured, “Ever heard of bang bus?”

  Her jaw dropped.

  No.

  Oh my God, he couldn’t be serious—

  Her head jerked up, and her horrified gaze met Stavros’ dark laughing dark eyes. She said it out loud this time. “You can’t be serious.”

  “Don’t worry. We won’t do the Western version. We’ll do it the Japanese way instead.”

  She shook her head. It didn’t matter which version it was. It was just...

  “You can’t be serious.”

  In answer, he opened the first button on her uniform.

  Oh my God, he was serious.

  In Japanese productions, a passenger – or, in her case, a stewardess – would suddenly find a stranger trying to cop a feel. The girl would be initially hesitant because of shock—

  Like she was now.

  “Stavros, no.” But her voice had turned breathless, and she had to bite back a whimper as Stavros kept working on her buttons.

  “It may not look like it, but the windows are tinted. No one outside will be able to see us.” That said, he got rid of her jacket and blouse.

  In Japanese productions, the female lead’s shock would gradually turn into desire—

  As was happening with her now.

  When Stavros started kissing her, she lost he
r mind completely, his tongue in her mouth doing all sorts of things that made her body tingle and all sensible thoughts leave her.

  As they kissed, he pushed her skirt up to her waist and ripped her panties off. She moaned, but no one inside the shuttle turned towards them, just like how it played out in most Japanese productions.

  From behind, Stavros began to fondle her breasts. He turned them around, making Willow face the other passengers.

  She froze, turning pink all over in mortification. “Stavros, what if—”<3

  “All these people have poor vision. I’ve got the medical certificates to prove it. Also, the rearview mirror has been covered, but the paths have been cleared so that the driver won’t need it. Everyone went through scanners to make sure they have no recording devices on them. They’ve also been asked to sign iron-clad confidentiality contracts.”

  The whole time Stavros had been speaking, he had not stopped caressing her, one hand on her breast, playing with her nipple, while his other hand had trailed down, diving between her legs.

  As a result, she barely understood what he had just said.

  “Satisfied with the security measures now?”

  “Umm...” She couldn’t speak, could only throw her head back against him and moan as Stavros started fucking her with his fingers.

  He laughed in her ear. “Liar. You’re too turned on to have understood a thing.”

  She didn’t answer, only able to lift her hips to meet the thrusts of his fingers.

  After, he made her hold on to the pole, Willow still facing the passengers. A second later, and he fucked her so damn hard he pushed her forward and the cold pole settled against the valley of her breasts.

  It was embarrassingly, mind-druggingly erotic, knowing that everyone knew and were able to hear what they were doing but not able to see a thing.

  But soon there was no room for embarrassment.

  Stavros was pounding into her so damn hard.

  “Scream for me, my love.”

  Oh, those two words.

  She screamed.

  ****

  Willem was in the act of unwrapping the package the newly married Mr. and Mrs. Manolis had sent to him when Serenity came knocking on his door before entering. “You called for me, sir?”

  “Yes.”

  She waited patiently. Life had settled back into normal between them, but she knew it was and would never be enough for her anymore. The thought had her fingers tightening on the document she held.

  When moments passed and he still didn’t say anything, she asked finally, “Do you wish me to do anything, Mr. de Konigh?”

  “Willem.”

  “Mr. de Konigh.”

  “I just need you to watch something with me...” The letter accompanying it had been too intriguing to resist.

  Dear Willem,

  Please know that Stavros made me do it. He says you should play this with Serenity in the room.

  Yours,

  Willow MANOLIS (Yes, I can’t resist doing that!)

  Taking the disk from its case, he slid it into the drive of his laptop. He was determined to see it for himself first and ensure it was safe for Serenity to view.

  When the laptop screen lit up, indicating that the disk was ready, Willem pressed Play.

  Nothing showed up on the screens, but the sounds that erupted from the laptop’s speakers more than made up for it.

  It was the sound of a woman in the throes of an orgasm.

  What the fuck?

  He slammed his laptop shut.

  When Willem looked up to apologize, the words died in his throat and his eyes widened in shock as he saw the effect it had on his intern. Her cheeks were flushed in embarrassment, but her breasts—

  Willem swallowed.

  When the hell did she start growing breasts? And had her nipples always been that prominent? And why the hell wasn’t she wearing a fucking bra to work?

  In front of him, Serenity wetted her lips.

  Goddammit, why did he want to bite her lips when she did that?

  “Sir...”

  When did she start having a bedroom voice? And why the fuck was he reacting this way to her?

  The conflicting state of his emotions made Willem’s voice unnaturally brusque as he asked, “What is it?” He immediately regretted his tone, especially when he saw hurt flash in her eyes. “Serenity, I’m—”

  She didn’t let him finish. Instead, she bent forward, allowing Willem a more than generous glimpse of her still-heaving breasts, and placed a piece of paper on his desk.

  When she straightened, he looked down at the paper with a frown. “What is this?” A muscle began ticking in his jaw. He had a feeling he wouldn’t like whatever her answer was.

  And he was right.

  Serenity said calmly, “My resignation, Mr. de Konigh.”

  THE END

  Dear Readers,

  Thank you for staying with me till the end. I hope you loved Stavros and Willow’s story as much as I do. I’d appreciate a review if you did, and please let me know if you’ve written one. It takes some time for me to reply because of my deadlines but rest assured I will get to it. Like any other author, I love hearing from readers and am thankful for any chance to talk to you guys.

  Some of you may be wondering about when Willem and Serenity’s story will be written. We’ll start on that as soon as I finish with a couple more Greek romances. I want to finish my current series before starting a new one, and in case you’re wondering, yes, I’ll be focusing on Dutch billionaires. You’ve already met one of them before – Willem’s younger brother Nic from That One Time and their cousin Farica, who is in love with...well, I’ll leave it to you to guess who that man is. Let’s just say many of you have already met him in more than one book. You’ve met another cousin of theirs, too, a prince who figured in a couple of old stories. Care to guess who?

  If you guys want to reach me about anything, you can do so by email, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or my website.

  Until the next journey (which incidentally will be the next book for Kassia and Alessandro of My Werewolf Professor).

  Yours,
