Ella was still asleep long after I had woke
n up, which was to be expected after what she’d been through the previous day. I had no intention of waking her; she would get up when she was ready.
In the meantime, I walked quietly around the apartment, handling the business of the day that couldn’t be put off. I sent emails and text messages and gave orders to my pack and employees to ensure that things continued to run smoothly despite my absence.
It was a sign of a poorly run business if the absence of a single person caused everything to come to a screeching halt. I took pride in the fact that my business could operate well without me, at least for a while. It meant I had successfully established the business and hired the right people.
Arranging for work hadn’t taken nearly long enough, and it was the only reliable distraction I had. Once it was done, I had nothing to think about except for Ella.
It was pointless to try to hide the fact that I was genuinely attracted to Ella. There was nothing wrong with that; she was a beautiful woman.
Considering the nature of our arrangement, it was better if my attraction for her was genuine. It took some pressure off my acting and made our interactions feel more natural.
I had even entertained the idea of pursuing her genuinely, but I dismissed it. Ella didn’t seem ready for that, and I wasn’t sure she would be anytime soon after what she’d been through with David.
The bigger problem, though, was that I wasn’t ready for a real relationship, and I knew it. It was unfair of me to even consider it.
There was a reason so many women had come forward to warn Ella about me. My reputation as a bastard to women was well–earned; I had made a lot of mistakes and treated many people poorly.
Much of that stemmed from the simple fact that when I had allowed myself to truly fall in love, I had ended up with a broken heart. I wasn’t in any rush to let someone get that close to me again–it could only end badly.
I already knew exactly how bad things could get, and I wasn’t going to subject myself or anyone else to that kind of misery. So if things with Ella were going to be physical, that was fine, but that was all it could be. I wouldn’t take her heart, and I wouldn’t give her mine.
