A Secretive Deal with My Billionaire Boss (by Gregory Ellington) novel Chapter 471

Madison

Alexander was quiet for a moment, his thumbs brushing my cheekbones. "Yeah. I understand that. You're right. Ethan needs stability. Structure. I can't just disrupt everything because I want you here."

Relief flooded through me. "Thank you."

"But I'm coming to Connecticut in two days."

"What?"

"Two days. I'll wrap up the urgent work here, delegate what I can, and drive up." His eyes bore into mine. "We'll spend more time together. The three of us. And we can discuss marriage properly. Not rushed, not pressured. Just talk about what we both want and how to make this work."

"Two days?"

"Is that a problem?"

"No. No, it's not a problem." My heart hammered against my ribs. "Two days is fine."

"Good." He leaned down, his forehead touching mine. "Because I'm not letting you go again. Not really. Distance doesn't change what's between us."

"I know."

"Do you?" His voice roughened. "I need you to understand something, Madison. I love you. I'm in love with you. Completely. Irrevocably. Nothing and no one will ever change that."

My throat tightened. "I love you too."

"Say it again."

"I love you, Alexander Knight. Even when you're bossy and demanding and completely overwhelming."

He smiled against my skin. "Especially when I'm bossy and demanding and overwhelming."

"Maybe." I pulled back just enough to see his face. "Probably. Definitely."

"That's my girl." He captured my mouth in a kiss that started gentle but quickly turned possessive. His tongue swept past my lips, claiming me thoroughly.

I kissed him back just as desperately, my fingers tangling in his hair and messing up the careful styling. He groaned into my mouth, his hands sliding down to grip my ass and pull me flush against him.

His cock was already hardening again, pressing against my stomach through his expensive suit pants.

I broke the kiss, gasping. "You need to go to work."

"Fuck work." He kissed down my neck, finding the hickeys he'd left. "Want to stay here. Want to strip you naked and fuck you on every surface in this penthouse."

"Ethan is literally in the living room."

"Ethan is watching cartoons. He won't notice if we're quick." His teeth scraped over my pulse. "Come on, baby. Just one more time before you leave tomorrow."

"No." I pushed at his chest, even as my pussy clenched at his words. "You have meetings. Important work. Go be the powerful CEO everyone expects."

He groaned, releasing me reluctantly. "You're killing me."

"You'll survive." I straightened his tie, which had gotten crooked during our kiss. My fingers smoothed the expensive silk, feeling the warmth of his chest beneath.

"We're leaving tomorrow," I said, stepping back slightly. "So we have today. And you're coming to Connecticut in two days anyway, so we'll have plenty of time together."

Alexander's jaw worked. "Alright." His hands lingered on my hips. "I'll be back home early then. We can make the most of today."

"No." I placed my hand on his chest. "Don't rush. Finish your work properly. Handle everything you need to handle. Come home when you're actually done, not when you're leaving things half finished because you're distracted."
