Chapter 19

Jaxon

Ivy: Can you come over?

Alright, not the reply I was expecting, but if Ivy wants some Jaxon D all up in her V then I’m more than happy to oblige. Sex would be the perfect distraction from everything that’s going on at work right now. It’s typical that just as Dad needs to let go of the reins a bit, business begins to boom even harder than before. I completely underestimated the power of the Parker brand. I knew we were wildly successful, but I had no idea we were growing by the second. Every time I’ve picked up the phone this week, it’s been for a new client, and every new booking seems to mean another new ten.

That was the easy part. Finding a pilot to cover every flight, while taking in the all-important family-life balance that Mom insists is to be prioritized above all else is a helluva lot trickier.

Everyone has something going on. That means they need to tweak the schedule, which means the schedule has become this never-ending transient cycle of bookings and re-bookings until my brain is numb. Usually, a ride out on my bike or a decent cooking session would be my go-to way to relax. That or women, and I’d had no time for any of the above now that my position as CEO has taken over my life.

It doesn’t take more than a second to shower, change and head over to Ivy’s on my bike.

When I reach her place, I pause for a moment to slide a hand through my hair and turn on the charm.

The door opens, and I’m not sure whether I was expecting her to be dressed in seductive lingerie or wrapped in a towel, but she’s neither. In fact, she is the polar opposite of ready for me. At least, in the way I was hoping she would be.

Instead, she grabs hold of my sleeve and yanks me inside, but rather than slamming her lips against mine, the only thing I’m slammed with is her cell phone.

“Thanks for coming. I’ve managed to ruin three consecutive cheesecakes, and this just came through, so I’ve hit panic mode. What are we doing?”

“Okay, take a breath and let me read what it says.” I close her front door behind us and am immersed into a bubble of strawberry cheesecake heaven. My mouth was salivating of its own accord for a taste of the delicious smelling cake as much as at the sight of her in black sweatpants, a matching gym top, bare feet and flour thrown in her hair.

“What?”

“Nothing, I’ve just never seen you like this.”

“Sorry. I know I look like shit, but who else would I call? Like you said, partners and all that. You want me to share my worries with you, I’m hoping you can handle full on crisis mode because we’re going there.”

“So, I see.” I arch a brow as she leaves me standing in the open plan hallway and saunters over to the kitchen counter to grab a half full wine glass and then finishes it in one long sip.
