Madison
I lay there, still catching my breath, my body a mess of tingling nerves and satisfaction. His weight felt oddly comforting, anchoring me to the bed in a way that made the entire world seem distant.
He lifted his head, capturing my lips in a slow, lingering kiss. “How did that feel?”
“Intense,” I managed to say, still reeling from the aftershocks of my orgasm. “Amazing.”
A smirk played on his lips. “Have you ever fucked in the sky before?”
I blinked at him, the absurdity of the question pulling a laugh from me. “No.”
“Well,” he said with a cocky grin, “get used to it. You’ll be getting these kinds of fucks regularly.”
His words sent a fresh wave of arousal through me. The idea of being at his beck and call for this kind of pleasure was both thrilling and terrifying.
I watched as Alexander rolled off me, his muscled body glistening with sweat. My thighs were still trembling from our encounter, and I could barely catch my breath.
“You look thoroughly fucked,” he said with a smirk, running his fingers through his tousled hair.
I blushed furiously, pulling the sheet up to cover myself. “Mr. Knight!”
“What? It’s true.” He stretched like a satisfied cat. “And don’t act shy now. Not after the noises you just made.”
My face burned hotter. “I wasn’t that loud.”
“The pilot might disagree.” He winked, making me want to disappear into the mattress.
“Oh god.” I covered my face with my hands. “I completely forgot about them.”
“Don’t worry.” He pulled my hands away, his eyes dancing with amusement. “The cabin’s soundproof. Mostly.”
“Mostly?” I squeaked.
He laughed. “You’re adorable when you’re embarrassed. But you should get used to it. I plan on making you scream a lot more.”
I buried my face in the pillow, trying to hide my blush. His deep chuckle only made it worse.
“Come here.” He pulled me against his chest, his warmth enveloping me. Despite my embarrassment, I found myself relaxing into his embrace. His fingers traced lazy patterns on my

skin, sending pleasant shivers down my spine.
“Sleep,” he murmured, pressing a kiss to my temple. “You’ll need your energy.”

I didn’t need to be told twice. The combination of our intense activities and the gentle hum of the plane soon lulled me into a peaceful slumber.
What felt like minutes later, his lips brushed my ear. “Wake up, sleeping beauty.”
I groaned, burrowing deeper into his chest. “Five more minutes.‘
“As much as I enjoy having you naked in my arms, we’re landing soon.” His hand squeezed my ass playfully. “Unless you want the flight crew to get an eyeful?”
That got me moving. I scrambled out of bed, nearly tripping over my own feet in my haste to get dressed. Alexander watched me with obvious amusement as I struggled with my bra clasp.
“Need help?”
“I’ve got it,” I muttered, finally managing to hook it. I slipped my dress back on, grateful it wasn’t
too wrinkled.
He dressed with infuriating efficiency, looking as put–together as ever in his tailored suit. Meanwhile, I probably looked like I’d been thoroughly… well, like I’d been thoroughly fucked on a
private plane.
The landing was smooth, and a sleek black car awaited us on the tarmac. The driver, an older gentleman with a perfectly pressed uniform, opened the door with a practiced bow.
“Welcome to Las Vegas, sir, madam.”
Alexander’s hand found the small of my back as he guided me into the car. The interior was all soft leather and mood lighting, with a privacy screen already raised.
“Behave,” he whispered in my ear as we settled in, though his wandering hand on my thigh suggested he had no intention of following his own advice.
The drive was mercifully short. We pulled up to a resort that looked more like a palace than a hotel, all gleaming glass and dramatic architecture. The lobby was a symphony of marble and crystal, making me feel distinctly underdressed despite my expensive new clothes.
Alexander handled check–in while I tried not to gawk at everything like a tourist. A bellboy appeared with our luggage when had that even gotten here? and led us to a private elevator.
“Welcome to the Sky Resorts,” the bell boy announced as we reached our floor. He opened the doors to reveal what could only be described as pure luxury.

1 stood at the entrance, mouth slightly agape. Alexander pressed something into the bell boy’s hand – probably a generous tip – and dismissed him with a nod.
As soon as the doors closed, his arms wrapped around my waist from behind. “What do you think?”
“It’s…” I gestured helplessly at the panoramic views, the private pool, the ridiculous amount of space. “It’s a lot.”
His lips found my neck. “Wait until you see the bedroom.”
He led me through the suite, his hand warm against the small of my back. When he pushed open the double doors, I froze in the doorway.
“Oh my god.” The words slipped out before I could stop them.
The bedroom was bigger than my entire apartment. Floor–to–ceiling windows offered a breathtaking view of the Las Vegas Strip, the city lights twinkling like fallen stars. A massive king- sized bed dominated the space, draped in what looked like the softest sheets I’d ever seen.
“Is that a chandelier?” I pointed at the crystal masterpiece hanging above the bed.
Alexander chuckled. “You should see your face right now.”
I wandered to the windows, pressing my palm against the cool glass. “This must cost more per night than I make in a month,” I thought.
My mind drifted to Mom, stuck in her hospital room. Even with the upgrade to Hallmark Hospital, it was nothing compared to this level of luxury. A lump formed in my throat as I imagined her here instead, watching the sunset from these windows, her face lighting up at the extravagance of it all. She’d probably make some joke about feeling like a queen, then immediately start worrying about the cost. That was Mom always thinking of others first.
“You don’t like it?” Alexander’s voice pulled me from my thoughts. He appeared behind me in the reflection, his expression unreadable.
“No! I mean, yes, I do like it.” I turned to face him. “It’s just overwhelming. In a good way. Like being dropped into a movie set.”
His eyebrows rose. “A movie set?”
“You know what I mean.” I gestured around the room. “All this… it’s like something out of those romantic movies where the billionaire whisks away the ordinary girl to some fancy hotel.”
“Ordinary?” He stepped closer, tilting my chin up. “There’s nothing ordinary about you, Madison Harper.”
I looked up into his intense gaze, my heart skipping at the way his eyes searched mine. The city

lights painted shadows across his face, making him look even more dangerous and alluring.
“You’re my girlfriend now, Madison,” he said, pulling me closer until I could feel his breath on my lips. His mouth captured mine in a possessive kiss that made my knees weak.
Girlfriend.
The word echoed in my head as his lips moved against mine. I reminded myself this was just an arrangement – a business deal with very specific terms. But I kept that thought to myself, letting him deepen the kiss instead.
He backed me up against the cool glass, his hands gripping my waist. The contrast between the cold window and his warm body sent shivers down my spine. The lights of Las Vegas twinkled behind me as his kisses grew more demanding.
“Are you afraid of heights?” he murmured against my lips.
I shook my head, though being pressed against a window fifty stories up was slightly unnerving. ” No, Mr. Knight.”
His lips curved into that signature smirk. “Good.” He pinned me harder against the glass, making me gasp. “Because I plan to make full use of this view.”
My face flushed at his implication, but I couldn’t deny the thrill that ran through me. He certainly knew how to make a girl forget her inhibitions.
“You blush so beautifully,” he whispered, trailing kisses down my neck. “I wonder how far down that blush goes.”
“Mr. Knight!” I protested weakly, earning a chuckle against my skin.
“So shy,” he teased. “Even after everything we’ve done. I love it.”
His hands roamed possessively over my body as he continued his assault on my neck, and I found myself melting into his touch despite my earlier reservations.
The city spread beneath us like a glittering carpet, oblivious to our private moments high above. It was also oblivious to the true nature of our relationship–a carefully crafted arrangement between a billionaire and his assistant.
