><p>Skye O\u2019Hara was feeling sick. <em>Literally.<\/em>And she also felt sick with nerves. Not a good combination. A cold clammy sweat lay over her skin, and it had only got worse since she\u2019d slipped into the jaw \u2013 droppingly beautiful ballroom with its gold &#8211; pannelled walls and massive crystal chandeliers.<\/p>\n<p>She\u2019d never seen so many beautiful, <em>tall<\/em>, people in her life. Or such finery. Glittering sheaths of dresses. Tuxedoes. Acres of smooth honey &#8211; hued skin, making her feel even more pale and wan. Golden lights everywhere. It even smelled exclusive. The kind of scent that couldn\u2019t be bottled. It was wealth.<\/p>\n<p>She\u2019d dressed in a white shirt and black skirt to try and fade in with the staff. Put her unruly hair up in a tidy bun on her head. No way would she have had the wherewithal to even remotely attempt to be one of these people. For a start she was about a foot too small and the only redhead in sight. And she had freckles. A phsyical imperfection people like this would eliminate on sight, no doubt.<\/p>\n<p>She craned her head, coming up on tip \u2013 toe to try and see further into the room. To see where <em>he <\/em>was. Her hand went to her belly where the reason for much of her nausea resided.<\/p>\n<p>And then she saw him in the distance. How could she not? Even he stood head and shoulders above these giants. His dark blond hair was still just the right side of too long and messy. Stubble emphasised the hard line of his jaw. And his mouth&#8230;she couldn\u2019t see it from here but she could remember it. Sculpted and firm. <em>Hot.<\/em>She remembered how it had felt on her bare skin&#8230;closing over her &#8211; a gap formed in the crowd and now she could see all of him.<\/p>\n<p>Her heart pounded as she drank in every long and lean inch of his six foot three inches frame. Tall and broad \u2013 shouldered. Golden. Gorgeous. The sexiest man she\u2019d ever seen. The first man she\u2019d ever thought of as <em>sexy<\/em>. And consequently, the first man she\u2019d ever slept with.<\/p>\n<p>He was wearing a white tuxedo jacket with a white bow \u2013 tie. Black trousers. He stood out effortlessly, a little bit different from everyone else. As if he couldn\u2019t contain some elemental part of himself even in this civilised milieu.<\/p>\n<p><em>Elemental.<\/em>That\u2019s what it had been like that night. Wild. Elemental. Unbelievable. Unforgettable. Skye\u2019s hand tightened on her belly. Unforgettable in more ways than one.<\/p>\n<p>A woman came up to her with a stern look on her face. Staff, not a guest, in a black uniform dress. Just as Skye was about to panic that she\u2019d been caught out the woman handed her a tray full of glasses of champagne and told her to stop wasting time. Relief flooded Skye. Her disguise had worked.<\/p>\n<p>She took a deep breath and started to move closer through the crowd to where <em>he<\/em>stood. Lazaro Sanchez. She\u2019d looked him up on the internet the day after their night together &#8211; and nearly had a heart attack when she\u2019d realised that he was a seriously wealthy and influential financier with an extensive real \u2013 estate portfolio. A household name in his native Spain.<\/p>\n<p>And also, that he was a renowned playboy. There had been acres of photos of him with a veritable stream of beautiful women. It had stung more than a little to know that she\u2019d been naive enough to fall for his smooth charm. That what had happened between them must have merely been a blip in his normal routine. A forgettable night among many. And it had stung even more that she hadn\u2019t resembled any of his usual women, so evidently he\u2019d only slept with her because she\u2019d been a bit&#8230;different.<\/p>\n<p>And now&#8230;now he was about to announce his engagement to the most beautiful woman in the world. Skye could see her standing beside Lazaro, his arm around her waist.<\/p>\n<p>They looked good together. Both tall. Lean. Her dark hair was sleek and pulled back and she wore a red strapless dress. A slim classic column that clung to every perfectly proportioned curve and oozed sophistication and elegance.<\/p>\n<p>For a second Skye faltered. She put the tray down on a nearby table for fear of dropping it. Should she have come here to do this? She lamented again that she hadn\u2019t been able to get to Lazaro before this event but it would have been easier to get a message to the Pope. She\u2019d been blocked and shut out at every turn.<\/p>\n<p>What right did she have to interrupt this momentous moment? The announcement of his engagement to this glamazon?<\/p>\n<p><em>Because you\u2019re pregnant with his baby and he needs to know, <\/em>reminded a cool voice in her head.<\/p>\n<p>Just then there was a sound of someone tapping on glass that cut through the buzz of chat in the room. Everyone fell silent and turned to where Lazaro and his fiance\u00e9 were standing on a raised dais. Skye felt even more sick now. Had he been with her when they\u2019d slept together three months ago? Had he known he would be getting engaged?<\/p>\n<p>She saw the cordon of security men near the couple. Fearsome looking individuals. Skye could see how it would happen \u2013 they\u2019d announce their news and suddenly they\u2019d be thronged and then whisked off to some secret location. This was her only chance to get his attention. She had to take it. She couldn\u2019t have it on her conscience that he didn\u2019t know she was pregnant. That their one \u2013 <em>amazing \u2013 <\/em>night together had had repercussions.<\/p>\n<p>And, his fianc\u00e9e deserved to know the kind of man she was marrying, if they had been together while he\u2019d been seducing Skye in another city.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-37vvhy-b72d15cd95da914721275c27e493a291\">\n.flex_column.av-37vvhy-b72d15cd95da914721275c27e493a291{\n-webkit-border-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n-moz-border-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div class='flex_column av-37vvhy-b72d15cd95da914721275c27e493a291 av_one_fifth  avia-builder-el-21  el_after_av_three_fifth  avia-builder-el-last  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding '     ><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"featured_media":2992,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","tags":[],"portfolio_entries":[23],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.5 -
