Introduction

Mein Name ist Marilyn, und mein Leben nimmt eine außergewöhnliche Wendung, als ich über Nacht zur Erbin eines großen Vermögens werde.

Jahrelang habe ich fleißig im Dienst des Milliardärs Jebediah Kross gearbeitet, ohne je zu ahnen, dass der alte Mann sogar über seinen Tod hinaus eine Überraschung für mich geplant hatte.

Nun finde ich mich gefangen in einer mysteriösen Klausel im Testament meines ehemaligen Chefs, die mich für immer an Jebediahs Sohn, John Kross – den neuen Milliardärs-CEO – bindet. Unsere Schicksale sind miteinander verflochten, während wir einen gefährlichen Pfad voller Skandale, vergrabener Geheimnisse und unvorhergesehener Begierden beschreiten. Mit jedem Moment, der vergeht, entfachen sich Funken zwischen uns.

Dieses aufregende Abenteuer ist meines, um es zu umarmen, und während ich seine Wendungen und Überraschungen durchlebe, entdecke ich eine Welt jenseits meiner kühnsten Träume.

Chapter 1

„Und es fühlt sich an, als wäre ich einfach zu nah dran, um dich zu lieben

Es gibt nichts, was ich wirklich sagen kann

Ich kann nicht mehr lügen, ich kann mich nicht mehr verstecken

Ich muss ehrlich zu mir selbst sein

Und es fühlt sich an, als wäre ich einfach zu nah dran, um dich zu lieben

Also werde ich meinen Weg gehen.“

Alex Clare - Too Close

Prolog: Sag niemals nie

John

Albany, 22. September 2007

Miranda veranstaltete eine riesige Zurück-zur-Schule-Party im Haus meines Vaters in Albany. Sie schmiss diese Party jedes Jahr zu dieser Zeit, und zum ersten Mal seit fast acht Jahren würde ich dabei sein. Ich hatte weder meinem Vater noch meiner Cousine von meiner Rückkehr erzählt, ich wollte Minnie eine große Überraschung bereiten.

Ich fuhr meinen geliebten Lotus Elise, das Auto war ein Juwel, ein echter Klassiker. Autos wie dieses waren schon immer meine Leidenschaft. Diese Vorliebe für alte Autos hatte ich von meiner Mutter geerbt, sie liebte alte Autos. Eine Erinnerung drängt sich in meinen Kopf. Es war ein Sommertag, und meine Mutter und ich spielten im Garten des Hauses in Albany, dasselbe Haus, zu dem ich jetzt fahre. Wir waren so abgelenkt, dass wir nicht einmal bemerkten, wie mein Vater ankam. Er hatte ihr einen roten Mustang Fastback gekauft. Ich erinnere mich an den Freudenschrei, den sie ausstieß, sowie an den glücklichen Blick, den sie meinem Vater zuwarf. Sie waren ein großartiges Paar, bis meine Mutter ging und mein Vater sich von allem verschloss, sogar von mir.

Ich schiebe die alten Erinnerungen beiseite und konzentriere mich auf den Rest des Weges. Minnie würde sich zweifellos freuen, mich zu sehen. Die Party würde in vollem Gange sein, wenn ich ankomme, und ich würde sie mit einem der Freunde meiner Cousine genießen. Als ich auf einem der Parkplätze des Hauses parke, höre ich Gelächter und gedämpfte Musik. Ich steige aus dem Auto und nehme meine Reisetasche vom Gepäckträger. Bevor ich zur Tür gehe, schaue ich mich gründlich um, alles ist genauso wie vor Jahren. Ich lächle und gehe zur Tür. Ich entscheide mich zu klopfen, anstatt direkt hineinzugehen. Ich warte ein paar Minuten, bis eine Frau öffnet.

Sie hat ein schönes und aufrichtiges Lächeln, ihr Gesicht strahlt und ihre Augen, die eine eigenartige grüne Schattierung haben, spiegeln Glück wider. Die Frau ist mollig und hat langes, leuchtend rotes Haar.

„Hey! Bist du zur Party gekommen?“ fragt sie und starrt mich an. Ich nicke und sie lächelt breit. „Nun, wir haben Getränke in der Küche, Pommes, Pizza und Chicken Nuggets im Wohnzimmer, komm rein und genieße es!

„Wie heißt du?“ frage ich, als sie sich umdreht. Obwohl sie etwas fülliger ist, gibt mir ihr Körper Ideen.

„Verdammt, du bist nicht von der Uni.“ sagt sie und dreht sich um. Die Frau studiert mein Gesicht, bevor sie es erkennt. „Du bist John, Jebes Sohn und Mirandas Cousin! Willkommen! Ich bin Marilyn.

„Also kennst du mich?“ frage ich mit einem halben Lächeln. Ich hatte mein Opfer für die Nacht bereits im Visier.

„Nein, deine Cousine hat mir gesagt, dass du kommst.“ Sie schaut mich genau an, analysiert mein Gesicht und ich sehe, dass ihre Augen meinen Körper hinunterwandern.

„Ella! Ella! Beeil dich, Jared will nackt in den Pool springen!“ Aus dem Nichts taucht ein blondes Mädchen auf. „Das darfst du nicht verpassen, los geht's!“ Marilyn oder Ella dreht sich um, um zu gehen, aber ich trete vor und nehme ihren Arm.

„Also bist du nicht Marilyn?“

„Doch, bin ich. Marilyn Ella Monroe, aber Ella ist für die Intimen und rate mal? Du gehörst nicht dazu.“ Sie macht sich auf den Weg nach draußen und ich stehe wie ein Idiot da und sehe ihr nach.

Das ist kein gutes Zeichen.

Marilyn

Ich bin überrascht, als ich Miranda sehe, die mich verschmitzt anlächelt.

„John hat gefragt, wer du bist, ich glaube, er mag dich.“ sagt Minnie aufgeregt. „Es wäre so perfekt, wenn ihr zusammen wärt, nur damit er ein bisschen Vernunft bekommt.“

„Ich mag deinen Cousin nicht, er mag zwar gut aussehen, aber wie du immer sagst, er ist ein Idiot.“ sage ich und fülle mehr Eis in den Eimer. „Ich will mich nicht mit einem weiteren Arschloch einlassen.“

„Ich sage dir, das wird irgendwann passieren, da bin ich mir sicher.“ Ich schaue meine Freundin an und suche nach einem Anzeichen von Belustigung in ihrem Gesicht, aber ich sehe, dass sie es ernst meint.

„Hier, nimm das Eis nach draußen und hör auf, mich mit dieser verrückten Geschichte zu nerven.“ sage ich und gebe den Eimer meiner Freundin, die nur lacht und die Küche in Richtung Garten verlässt, wo unsere Freunde Spaß haben.

Miranda hat immer die besten Partys geschmissen, niemand konnte etwas anderes behaupten. Die besten Partys im College wurden von ihr organisiert, wenn sie nicht auf dem Campus stattfanden, dann bei Jebe zu Hause. Ich schiebe die Gedanken beiseite und öffne den Kühlschrank, um mir eine Flasche Bier zu holen. Ich nehme einen langen Schluck, während ich die Kühlschranktür schließe, aber sobald ich sie schließe, stehe ich John gegenüber. Er lächelt mich an und ich werde ernst.

„Meine Cousine sagt, du bist ein bisschen unsozial gegenüber neuen Leuten.“ Der Junge bleibt vor mir stehen und nimmt mir die Flasche aus der Hand. „Wie ein Gentleman werde ich nett zu uns beiden sein.“

„Ich bitte dich nicht, nett zu mir zu sein, noch meine Bier zu stehlen.“ sage ich und nehme das Getränk zurück. „Es gibt noch mehr im Kühlschrank.“ sage ich lächelnd, mein Körper ist warm und mein Verstand sagt mir, ich sollte weglaufen. Entschlossen gehe ich zur Tür, die in den Garten führt. Als ich fast dort bin, fühle ich eine Hand, die meinen Arm umschließt und mich stoppt, bald ist Johns Körper gegen meinen gedrückt. Ein Schauer durchfährt meinen Körper in dem Moment, als er seine Lippen an mein Ohr bringt.

„Ich will dein Bier, das ist das einzige, das nach deinen Lippen schmeckt.“ Johns tiefe, warme Stimme lässt meinen Körper schmelzen, aber ich fange mich schnell wieder und trete zurück. „Hast du einen Freund oder so etwas?“

„Nein, ich mag nur deinen Typ nicht.“ sage ich und sehe ihn an. „Ich bin nicht an deinem kleinen Spiel interessiert, John.“

„Bist du das wirklich nicht, Marilyn? Wirklich nicht?“ Hartnäckig und aufdringlich, das charakterisiert John Kross. „Gib mir das Bier.“

„Nein!“ lehne ich ab. „Hol dir selbst eins und lass mich in Ruhe, ich habe eine Party zu genießen.“

„Ich werde es mir holen.“ Er tritt vor und nimmt mir die Flasche aus der Hand. John trinkt die gesamte Flüssigkeit, bevor er die Flasche auf die Spüle stellt. „Jetzt ist es weg, ein Genuss.“

„Schurke...“ Ich lächle boshaft und beobachte, wie der Unverschämte ein halbes Lächeln zeigt. „Ich hoffe, du hast den Geschmack meiner Lippen genossen.“

Ich drehe mich um und gehe. John war eine Versuchung, eine Versuchung, der ich nachgeben wollte.

Aber das ist nie passiert, er ging am nächsten Tag, und so war meine Hingabe Vergangenheit, zusammen mit einer großen Enttäuschung.

I paused at the ajar conference room door, attempting to balance the tray of coffees. Creedon was my new boss, now also my boyfriend. I listened at the door.

“Where is that slut of yours, Creedon? Must be a hell of a lay. The coffee is going to be cold,” Michael complained. “What's the point in keeping her around? She's not even your breed.”
Not his breed?
“You know me, I like nice accessories, Besides, she is smarter than she looks."
An Accessory?
“Stop toying with the girl. You're letting her get too close to us. Not to mention the scandal you’ll have with the press once they realize she's a poor country girl. America will fall in love with her, you will just crush them when you’re done with her. Poor Image...” The sound of fits hitting the table silenced the room.

“She’s mine! She is no concern of yours. I can fuck her, breed her, or cast her aside, remember who's in charge here. “If I want to use her as a cum bucket, I will." His anger explosive.
Breed me? Cast me aside? Cum bucket? I think not!*

Someone, please, come mop up the word vomit this woman has just spewed.
