Jet-Set Billionaire: The Complete Series

by Jenna Chase

  "Oh, come on. Don't be silly." I looked back up into his eyes and he was smiling but he wasn't laughing anymore.

  "I'm serious. I've missed you, Erica. I was starting to worry that maybe everything that happened between us was just a passing thing for you. Was it?"

  The intensity in his dark eyes left me breathless but at the same time, a feeling of relief washed over me. It took me a moment to accept that he had been worrying about the exact same thing I had.

  "I thought about you a lot too," I said as I looked back down. "But I just didn't know …"

  "Know what?" Malcolm asked, his thumb running over my lips. "How you felt?"

  "No, it wasn't that at all. I just didn't know if everything that happened between us, everything you said, was real. I mean, you were surrounded by all of those beautiful girls on the flight to Tokyo and I guess I was worried that I was no competition."

  "Well, I'll tell you exactly how I feel then so there's no question in your mind. Erica, you're absolutely perfect."

  "Perfect for what?"

  Malcolm laughed again and pushed one hand into my hair.

  "Perfect for me. You're what I've been looking for all my life. I knew it the minute I saw you when I watched you during takeoff from across the plane, pretending to look for something under your seat," he said, another big grin spreading across his face.

  "I was not pretending!" I said as I felt my face getting hot again. I smiled and buried my face in his chest. "Okay, maybe a little."

  I laughed again, remembering the moment when our eyes first met. I could feel the rush of his stare throughout my entire body and it was no different when I looked back up to see his eyes burning into mine as he lifted my chin, then leaned down and kissed me.

  "So, you're not going to trade me in for a young party girl?"

  He held my head in his hands and look directly into my eyes.

  "Not in your life. As far as I'm concerned you've been mine since the moment I laid eyes on you. We belong together."

  I had no idea what to say and when he buried his lips in my neck, there was no hope for any kind of coherent sentence to come out of me. So I just gave into the incredible tingling sensation that started at my neck and shot straight down to the space between my legs.

  "Oh God, Erica, you smell so amazing," he whispered into my ear as his lips trailed down my neck. I closed my eyes and felt his hands move around my waist, circling me and pulling me firmly into him.

  His strong hands guided me into an enormous living room with floor to ceiling windows that looked out on the sparkling city lights that hovered over the East river. He didn't move his lips away from my neck once as we slowly made our way down a hallway and into a bedroom with the same spectacular view.

  Chapter 14

  Malcolm

  I couldn't keep my hands or lips off of Erica as I blindly guided her through the living room and into my bedroom. Every few steps we took toward our ultimate destination I would pause as I pressed her up against a wall or piece of furniture and kiss her neck, unzipping her dress or pulling a comb out of her long beautiful hair.

  "It feels like an eternity since the last time I touched you like this. I want you so badly, Erica."

  I felt her body go more and more limp with every kiss as I pushed the shoulders straps of her dress off and felt the silky satin fabric fall down to the floor.

  I pulled off my tie and unbuttoned my shirt as Erica took off my belt. We both stumbled around as we kicked our shoes off and entered my bedroom. Within seconds I was naked and Erica was in an astounding set of black underwear. She giggled as I picked her up and threw her down onto the bed.

  I couldn't keep my eyes off of her as she reached back and unhooked her bra then threw it to the ground. I was hypnotized by the smooth lines of her curves. My hands moved over her hips and thighs, then back up to her breasts, squeezing and grabbing the soft flesh.

  Just as I was about to move on top of her she surprised me by pushing me over and onto my back. I watched as she slid herself over my leg and crouched down, with her beautiful ass up in the air, just below my cock.

  Her breasts brushed my legs as she moved up so that her mouth was hovering just over the base and I could feel her hot breath moving across the shaft. She lifted my hard cock in the air and flicked her tongue around the ridge, slowly touching the head to her lips. As her mouth slid around the ridge, I could feel her sucking me in. The head of my cock was slowly disappearing into her mouth as her lips made their way further and further down the shaft.

  After every few strokes, she would pull her mouth all the way back up, teasing me and making my cock impossibly hard. Then she would swallow me again. Sucking and twirling her tongue until I thought I would explode. I could barely breathe as I watched her lips slide right down to base my shaft. Then, with one long lick her tongue traveled up to the head of my cock again and before I knew it, the entire thing had disappeared into her mouth again.

  I closed my eyes and felt the soft sucking of her lips and the sensation of her tongue running up and down the underside of the shaft just beneath the head. I knew I wasn't going to be able to last much longer, especially when I opened my eyes and saw those gorgeous eyes of hers gazing up at me.

  "I don't want to come yet," I said in between quick breaths as I looked down at her and pushed my hand into her long, beautiful hair. But she didn't stop. She wrapped one hand around the shaft and one around my balls and continued to suck with those perfect lips.

  "I have faith that you'll be able to bounce back really quick," she said as she gave me a wicked smile.

  Her eyes never left mine as I felt the build-up to the point of no return. My body started to go rigid and I gripped the comforter with one hand and that luscious, silky hair of hers with the other.

  She sucked me down her throat as I came and with every swallow I felt like I was being squeezed dry. It was the most amazing feeling I've ever experienced. I had absolutely no idea how talented she was.

  I felt her warm body move up next to me after it was over, then after I caught my breath I opened my eyes and there was that same sexy smile.

  "Good Lord, where did you learn to do that."

  "I've picked up a few tricks here and there," she said, her soft breasts nudging into my arm as she ran her hand across my chest. That was all it took and I was more than ready for more. She drove me out of my mind.

  Erica squealed as I rolled on top of her and gripped her wrists, then held them up above her head. I pressed myself into her, pinning her to the bed, then using my knees to spread her legs apart. She gasped as I overpowered her completely. I could see in her eyes that she loved being taken just as much as she loved devouring me.

  "You won't be able to count how many times I'm going to make you come," I said, teasing her soaking wet pussy with the head of my cock.

  I kissed my way down her delicious curves, spread her legs even wider, then dove right in. Everything about her overwhelmed me, especially when I was had my face buried between her thighs. I pressed her legs up so that her thighs were on either side of her stomach, then I slipped two fingers inside her. The deep moan that came from her throat sent shivers down my spine.

  I've never heard anything like that from the countless girls I'd been with. Erica was just so real and had such depth and she didn't put on a show for me. I'd had plenty of that and it could be fun to watch, but after a while, it was all the same. And eventually, those porny screams and squeals started to have the opposite effect.

  I loved watching Erica become lost in the moment. I could tell with every sound that came out of here that nothing with her was an act. And that I was making her just as crazy as she was making me.

  After a few more thrusts against her spongy g-spot, Erica's legs clamped tight around me. Her moans went down another octave as she bucked and squirmed with my mouth latched onto her clit. Then just as she released a little bit of tension I pushed her legs apart and thrust myself deep inside her.

  She screamed
and raised up off the pillow, then wrapped her hands around my head and pulled me down on top of her. I felt myself being crammed into her as she moved her hands down and grabbed my ass with both hands and forced me deeper and deeper inside her.

  We went on like this for a long time; stopping and starting again, then laughing and talking. Hours had gone by and I had no idea how many times either of us had come. We were both completely exhausted, but I knew I wouldn't be able to sleep until I talked to her about one more thing.

  "I was serious about what I said when we were on the island, Erica."

  "Serious about what?"

  "I want you with me. I'm not sure how the next few years of my life are going to play out but I want you there."

  "What do you mean by that?" she said as she looked up at me.

  I leaned back and opened the top drawer in the table on the side of my bed. I hadn't actually planned on asking her tonight. I'd envisioned a dark, candle-lit restaurant and violins, but I just couldn't hold back. I had to ask her.

  I pulled out a velvet box from the top drawer and opened it up. I took the diamond ring out of the box and when I looked back at Erica, she had tears in her eyes.

  "I love you Erica, and I want you to marry me. I want you to be with me wherever I go."

  She put her hand over her mouth and made a funny sound like she was laughing and crying at the same time.

  "Yes, Malcolm, I'll marry you. And I'll go with you. Anywhere you want to go."

  "Even the Himalayas?"

  "Yes, even the Himalayas," she said, still laughing with tears in her eyes.

  "Don't worry, I won't make you hike any mountains or do anything you don't want to do. You can bask by the pool at the hotel while I'm hitting the trails."

  "Well, who knows, I may learn to like hiking the trails with you."

  "Do you think this is something you could wear?" I asked as I held the ring up for her. "If it's not perfect, I can take it back …"

  "Malcolm, it's beautiful. It's absolutely perfect." Her hand was shaking as she held it out for me and I slipped the ring onto her finger. "It's the most beautiful ring ever seen in my life."

  After watching the diamond glimmer in the dim light of the room, Erica turned to me and wrapped her hand around my neck.

  "I love you, Malcolm. I still can't believe this is happening. I know it's only been a short time that we've known each other but it feels like I've known you my whole life."

  "I've been thinking the same thing. The way you feel to me, so familiar but also so new and exciting. I don't even know how to articulate it."

  "I know exactly what you mean. I don't think I've ever felt so comfortable in anyone else's arms."

  I wrapped my arms around her tighter and buried my face in her hair and we both drifted off to sleep.

  It was amazing sleeping with Erica in my arms again. I wouldn't have traded our night on the island for anything in the world, but I had to admit having her curled up in my arms under a comforter and with a full-sized pillow was a lot more comfortable than the airplane blanket and miniature pillow we had on the island.

  We made love again in the morning. It was incredibly passionate even though we had barely moved after our eyes opened. Erica lay on her side and arched her back so that I could enter her from behind. It felt like I was still asleep and dreaming as our bodies melted into one another.

  I would have loved to stay in bed with her all day but I had a meeting with my father so the morning wasn't as slow and drawn-out as I'd wanted.

  "Are you really going to talk to your father about leaving the business?" Erica asked as we had a quick breakfast at the kitchen table that stood in front of one of the plate-glass windows that she couldn't seem to get enough of.

  "I'm going to propose some things to him. I'm not sure how he'll take it, but I've done a little research and I think I might be able to make an arrangement that he will agree to. He's not an ogre, just a father who wants the best for his son, and the family business."

  "What do you have planned?"

  "A part-time position. I figure if I do a rigorous interview process with some select candidates and find the right person, then keep in close contact with them while I'm away, I can catch up on everything else when I come back for monthly or bi-monthly meetings."

  "Come back from where?"

  "Where we're going to be … together."

  "Where's that?"

  "It's a surprise. I'm not even sure if I'm going to be able to swing it yet. But you'll find out soon enough. I'm going to have to go out of town for a while, too. I really want to get things squared away as soon as possible. So by the time I get back you should be all moved in."

  "Moved in here? You want me to get rid of my apartment?"

  "Of course. This is your home now. I want you here with me, Erica," I said as I stood next to her chair and helped her up.

  "This will be our home base. Whenever we come back to New York, you'll be able to stand in front of these windows and stare at that view for as long as you want. And I'll be right behind you, with my arms wrapped around your soft, sexy …"

  My lips found hers again and every thought left my brain. It wasn't until my phone rang that my brain snapped back to reality.

  "Okay, I'll be right down."

  I slipped my phone into my pocket and downed the last of my coffee.

  "That was my driver. I'm running late. I'll be back in a few hours. You'll be here, won't you?"

  "I should probably go home and put on something a little more sensible than an evening gown."

  "I'll send James back to take you home after he drops me off. He'll wait for you to get whatever you need then bring you back here. I can wait to see you."

  "You're seeing me right now," Erica said.

  "Yes, and I'm very happy about that too."

  I kissed her again and ran out the door. I wasn't exaggerating. I already missed her.

  Chapter 15

  Erica

  "I can't believe you're really leaving, Erica. I'm going to miss you so much."

  "I'm going to miss you too, Laney. I honestly can't believe I'm really leaving."

  I took a sip of my latte as we found a table in the crowded coffee shop and sat down.

  "We've been talking about it for over a month now and it's finally happening. But you know I'll be back to visit. From what I understand Malcolm will be flying back once a month for the first six months at least. He has to make sure the transition is as smooth as possible. He doesn't want to put any strain on his father at all."

  "Is he sick?"

  "No, I don't think so. Malcolm just really cares about him. He's very committed to his family. It was a big decision for him to go down to part-time, but I'm so glad he did. I really want him to be happy."

  "Are you happy, Erica?"

  "I'm happier than I've ever been in my life, Lainey. I still can't believe this is happening. That we're taking off to live together somewhere. I want you to promise me you'll come visit."

  "But you don't even know where you're going to be! He hasn't said anything?"

  "He won't tell me. He wants it to be a surprise."

  "Wow, I seriously can't believe that Erica. I can't believe that you are getting married to the Malcolm McDaniel. And that he is whisking you off to a secret location. I hope the wedding isn't going to be a secret. I'm invited, right?"

  "Of course, you're invited. You're my best friend!"

  "You know I'd be the best-darned bridesmaid you've ever seen too," Lainey said with a glazed look in her eyes. "I'd love to help you plan it, Erica! A wedding at an exotic location would be so much fun!"

  "Well," I said as I look down at the enormous ring on my finger. It had been over a month and I still hadn't gotten used to seeing it on my hand. "We haven't talked about a date yet, but I'm pretty sure he's not going to spring a wedding on me. I mean I at least need to have some makeup on if I'm going to get married."

  "And you have no idea where you'll be. What did he say ag
ain?"

  "He said that we were going away somewhere, and he said he thinks I'll really like it."

  "And he's keeping his place here in New York, so you'll come back with him to visit."

  "Yes, Lainey, I've already told you all this. I'll be coming back with him when he flies in for meetings."

  "I just can't get over all of it, Erica. I can't believe you packed up all of your belongings into four suitcases that fit into the back of a cab and sold the rest, then moved into his penthouse. And now you're flying to some unknown destination across the globe with just one suitcase. You're amazing."

  "Well, I've been practicing packing light for a long time," I said with a smile.

  "So what are you going to do? You're not flying anymore, are you?"

  "No, I don't plan on it. I mean, I don't really know what I'm going to do, especially since I don't know where were going, but I know I won't be taking flight attendant jobs anymore. Malcolm seems to think that will be able to figure everything out wherever we are, so I just have to trust him. He says as far as he's concerned I could lie around in a cabana on the beach all day and he'd just be happy that I was there."

  "So, it's somewhere tropical, then?"

  "I suppose it could be," I said. I hadn't really thought about it as much as Lainey had. For some reason, just the knowledge that I would be with Malcolm was enough. I didn't care what I did or where I did it. I was just so happy that I was going to spend the rest of my life doing whatever it was with him.

  "It's so exciting, Erica. I'm so happy for you!"

  "I'm really happy for you too. Things are going really well with Brad, aren't they?"

  "Better than I ever imagined. He really is an incredibly sweet guy."

  "I know. That was the hardest thing for me. I kept kicking myself because I couldn't believe I was turning down such a sweet and caring guy. I mean guys like that don't come along every day. But the passion wasn't there for me. Nothing like with Malcolm. When he came along, it wasn't a contest for me at all."
