The Billionaire’s Wake-up-call Girl (Billionaires of Manhattan, #2)

by Annika Martin

“Wake up, you stupid motherfucker. People are waiting for whatever annoying bullshit you have in store for them today.”

“Your hapless minions await whatever stupid bullshit flows from your meteoric mind.”

Wake up, motherfucker. It’s been so long since I felt any kind of surprise from a woman. And really, what kind of woman says that to me?

“You are such a pig,” I say. “Oh I am. An utter animal. Sex with me is a dirty, savage affair. Utterly uncivilized. It’s the opposite of civilized.”

According to caller ID, she’s in New York City. She’s a cab ride away, somewhere out there in the crowds

And my need to find her blazes wild as the sun.

There, between two beautiful and elaborately embroidered flowers, is a meticulously stitched saying: Sex with me is a dirty, savage affair. Utterly uncivilized.

I whimper a little, moving with him—much as I can, considering most of me is flattened by his big, hard body and wonderfully cucumbery cock.

This nameless, faceless woman who was so easy to talk to on the phone is ten times the miracle in person.

I like how she’s touching me. I’ve shunned affection for so many years. Now this woman has me like a beggar. More, I think.

“She’s coming off a bad experience. She’s moving away in a couple of weeks. She just wants to be fuck buddies.”

I hear Willow come up behind me after a bit. “But you so want more.” I so want more.

And I lie there loving everything about her so hard that it wakes her up.

He told me a secret, but it’s more than a secret—he gave me the ability to see him in a way other people can’t. To see what drives him.

Now I see what his control issues really are—they’re dragons. Dragons that we can fight together. Because we’re good together like that.

Willow hands me a glass of champagne. “He made an omelet for me this morning,” she says. “He did?” “It was terrible.”

I love you, she mouths. I whisper it back. I love you. Because we’re two dragon fighters, traipsing through life together. Falling off the map together.
