Making bets with other billionaires is a bad idea.Especially when it consists of falling in love and getting married. I am the head of StormFronts. A company I built literally from nothing. My friend and father think It's time for me to settle down and start a family. They are right. But first, I need to find the perfect woman. Someone who could satisfy all of my fleshly desires. And I found her. Her name is Jessica. We met when I gave a commencement address at her college. The attraction between us was unbearable. I had to have her. So I invited her to dinner and took her back to my penthouse, where I dominated her body. She's what I've been looking for all of my life, and I need to prove to her that I'm not just a hit-and-run type of man. But just when she was starting to fall for me. Her father stepped in and told her to go back home without telling me why she had to leave. Now I'm all alone again, thinking if she was the one for me.
