PLANNED BABY
Ellie, a brilliant, career-focused CEO, seeks to fill the void left by loss. With her biological clock ticking, she devises a daring plan: a planned pregnancy via a one-night stand. But when fate intervenes, the father of her twins turns out to be none other than Kade, a powerful, enigmatic figure from her past. Can she keep her secret, or will her meticulously crafted plan unravel, revealing truths far more complex than she ever imagined?The thumping bass vibrated through my chest, mingling with the scent of cheap perfume and stale alcohol. Flashing lights painted the tangled bodies on the dance floor in fleeting, electric strokes. This wasn't my usual scene. My penthouse mini-bar offered far more sophisticated solitude.
But tonight, I was on a mission. My OB had confirmed it: tonight was prime time for conception. I, Penelope Quinn Cabello, CEO of Cabello International, was here to get pregnant.
An hour had passed, then another. The men who approached me were quickly dismissed. Cute, but not the one. Impatience gnawed at me. Maybe I should dance.
Just as I was about to give up, a hand settled on my waist, pulling me closer. His scent was intoxicating. My body hummed. This was it. Slowly, I turned to face him, my eyes widening. A smirk played on my lips. He was even better than I'd hoped.
"Your place or mine?" he whispered, his voice a low rumble.
"Hotel," I replied, a triumphant thrill coursing through me. I had him.
