Their Sweet Desire (Power Surge: The Billionaire Club 3)
“I was thinking that perhaps as you make those phone threats and set up a real threat to Toni’s life, I can be there to save her. I’m going to break the news to her about those two assholes. I’m gathering up proof. I’ve got their real names, the companies they work for, and I have a few people working on finding out about the woman who’s been stalking them.”
“They’ve got a woman stalking them? Who the hell are these guys that they can land a babe like Antoinette?” Marty asked.
“They’re fucking billionaires. But they’re not taking my woman from me. I don’t care if I have to kill them to stop them. Toni is mine and so is Bliss,” Vince said, and then he explained his plan to his father and uncle.

Antoinette was giggling as Emerson pulled her onto his lap and Stone made the popcorn.
“I thought we were going to watch a movie tonight?” she asked as Emerson continued to tickle her.
“We’ll get to it. Maybe,” Emerson teased and then pulled her underneath him before straddling her waist and reaching for the buttons on her blouse.
“Hey!” she exclaimed as his nimble fingers disposed of the buttons then parted her shirt.
He licked his lips. “Damn, baby, you have some of the sexiest bras I’ve ever seen.” He unclipped the front clasp, exposing her breasts as they poured from the cups. Emerson stroked the nipples.
“Emerson, it’s not fair.”
“I can’t play fair where you’re concerned.” He leaned down and licked across the tip of one nipple. She could feel his erection pressing against her shorts and groin.
“Arms above your head,” Stone chimed in then tossed a couple of pieces of popcorn onto her.
“Hey,” she scolded, and Stone popped a few pieces into his mouth then placed the bowl onto the coffee table by the couch.
“I can watch the movie just like this, and eat popcorn off your body. What a great idea, Stone,” Emerson teased then leaned down and licked a piece into his mouth.
“You are not going to do any such thing,” she scolded and Emerson raised his one eyebrow at her.
“You know the rules.” He cupped her breasts then squeezed each tip between his thumb and pointer.
Her cell phone began to ring, and she moved to get it.
“Wait right there. You can’t move,” Emerson told her.
“I have to get it. It could be Tina. She’s made some progress with Charlie and his brother, Drake. I need to get it.”
Emerson reluctantly let her up, and she tossed off her bra then grabbed her blouse and put it on. She answered the phone, nearly out of breath from rushing.
“Hello?” she answered.
“You’re going to die, bitch. Drop the two men. Get rid
of them, or they’ll be the first to go.”
She couldn’t make out the voice, but the fear from the caller shocked her silent. She couldn’t tell Emerson and Stone about the call. They had been walking her home every night making certain that Vince hadn’t broken into her home again. If they found out about the threatening phone calls, the letters, and about how she lied about owning Bliss, they could be really angry.
The caller hung up. She looked at the number, but it was unavailable. If it were Vince and his family, then they knew about Emerson and Stone. They could go after them. They could hurt them. What am I going to do? If I tell them the truth, then they’ll hate me. If I get them killed, then what?
The phone rang again, and it came up unavailable.
She wouldn’t answer it. Whoever it was, they were just trying to scare her. Well, she would just ignore them.
“Was that Tina?” Stone asked as he walked toward her. She shook her head. “Wrong number, I think.”
“Well, come back over here, so we can finish what Emerson started.” He took her hand, pulled her into his arms, and kissed her. She squeezed him tight, loving the feel of Stone’s embrace. But as she thought about what the caller said, she felt the wall begin to go into place.
“I’m sorry, Stone. I don’t really feel too well,” she lied to him. He cupped her cheeks between his hands and stared down into her eyes.
