Blackmailed For The Billionaire’s Pleasure(7)
“What the hell is going on” she demanded angry now at the way in which he seemed to be haunting her
Ignoring her question he had simply watched as she moved towards him
“Sit down” he finally said, as Kira had looked at him in disbelief.
“I think I’ll stand” she answered defiantly
“Suit yourself” he replied shrugging
“It was a good presentation” he said surprising her
She had looked at him her beautiful eyes full of suspicion; as he looked back holding her gaze, before very casually asking her
“Bill Thomson…. He is your lover”
Kira gasped in horror and surprise at his question
“No” she cried in outrage
“Not that it would be any of your damn business if he was. What kind of question is that?”
Fixing her with deadly eyes he had continued calmly
“Then why did he spend over an hour in your room last night”
She had looked at him a stunned expression on her face.
“Are you spying on me “she finally asked, as dumbfounded she had sunk down into the seat opposite him.
“Yes” he replied easily
“We had a lot to talk about” she found herself explaining, before stopping herself to ask in surprise
“Why are you spying on me?”
He however, had ignored her question, carrying on his tone business like.
“Do you know much about Bills business Kira” She sat silently a sinking feeling rising in her stomach
“No, I’m guessing not” he smiled, his handsome mouth curling into a smile
“Bill has taken out a sizable loan to finance the company....Did you know that?”
Kira still said nothing. She had suspected as much, but nothing had ever been said to her. Continuing Craig looked like a panther ready to pounce.
“He had to put up all his assets to get it – car, house ….. You know the kind of thing” he looked at her for a comment which never came as she sat silently listening
“Now I own that debt and according to the terms of the loan it can be called in at any time.”
Finally Kira had spoken
“You’re lying” she said huskily
In a low voice he answered
“I’m not the liar here” before throwing a folder at her to let her read the contents sitting back silently watching her face
She had looked through the paperwork which confirmed what he had just told her. Handing it back she had looked at him with concern
“Bill has nothing to do with this Craig. Whatever your argument is it’s with me, just leave him alone.”
Craig smiled
“Well that’s up to you sweetheart” he said in an unpleasant tone
“I can leave things the way they are and you and Bill win the contract to do the job…. Or I foreclose kicking poor Bill and his even poorer wife on the streets”
Kira looked at him in shock
“But why” she asked “What has he ever done to you”
“It’s not personal to Bill Kira….just you” he had answered levelly
Glaring at him and speaking between clenched teeth she hissed
“What do you want?”
He smiled in triumph his lips curling
“I want you” he said softly
Kiras eyes flew open in surprise and confusion
“What” she said
Rising he had walked around the desk to stand in front of her, making Kira swallow hard at having him suddenly so close to her. She could feel her whole being jumping in excitement at his long lean body which was now balanced against his desk, his arms folded over his broad chest and his legs crossing at the ankles. He looked relaxed, and yet his face stared down on her with a look which was following her every move.
“I just closed on the deal to buy this place” he gestured with open arms. “I feel like relaxing and unwinding, so I’m taking a few days holiday on my island and was looking for someone to spend it with …. Just something meaningless and casual and there you were…. you seemed to fit the bill perfectly.
He smiled seeing her flinch
“I want you to join me, and to be totally at my beck and call for the whole 6 days …. and 5 nights” he added the last part with a flick over her body
Kira looked at him in horror
“No” she cried “I won’t be your little whore”
His eyes flashed in anger
“You will be or I will destroy Bill Thomson”
Kira stared at him a hurt look on her face
“Why are you doing this” she whispered “I never did anything to you”
Craig moved forward and grabbed her by the shoulders pulling her up so that he could look her in the eye
“You have a really short memory sweetheart” he snarled before letting her go and stepping back once more completely in control of himself
