**Choice 20**

So tell me, Gene...

* What's the first thing you're going to do when you get back home?
* What do you miss most about your old place?
* How ready are you to get the hell out of here?

**Choice 21**

I have to say...

* I agree. That's dedication, and I respect it.
* You kind of terrify me, Loralei.
* I'm glad I'm not your dance teacher.

**Choice 22**

Loralei...

* Gene will be home for Christmas! ( 17)
* I want Ethan to tell you instead. ( 12)
* We aren't quite sure of the timelines yet.

But...

* You deserve to know.

**Choice 2**

He...

**Choice 3**

I want to...

* Stop what happened to Miles from happening again.
* Get revenge on unethical corporations.

That much? That's...

**Choice 5**

Ethan...

* I am so, so sorry. ( 17)
* You're a good man. ( 12)
* I still had my reasons.

**Choice 6**

The thing is...

* I can't help giving in to you. There's something about you. *(VIP choice)*
* You're a weakness of mine, unfortunately.

I...

* Want to. I really do.
* Am still working on myself.
* Don't know if I'll ever get there.

**Choice 8**

I'm going to...

* Give her another case and bury my father's. ( 17)
* Risk her discovering my dark family secret.

**Choice 9**

Um...

* Like hell.
* Are you crazy?
* Why don't you just quit?

**Choice 10**

I'm going to...

* Let her get away with this now.
* Take a risk and dig my heels in.

What an opportunity. I'm going to...

* Be petty.

**Choice 12**

I'm going to...

* Do as he says. Get on my tummy for a "deep release." ( 17)

**Choice 13**

I want to see...

* The flamingos!

**Choice 15**

The truth?

* We were lonely together. ( 17)
* Yes, Ethan... I was so, so lonely. ( 12)
* I was fine.

**Choice 16**

I suppose...

* It is a tragedy.
* It's for the best.
* I'll get one someday.

**Choice 17**

I'm going to...

Hey, Ethan...

* What's going on? ( 17)

## ***Chapter Eleven: Camera Shy***

I'm...

* Not telling you a thing.
* Going to kick you in the nuts.

I'm...

* A private person, Ethan.
* Going to kick his ass.
* Not ready for the world to know about this.

Let's...

* Lose them in a daring escape! ( 17)
* Start speaking French. ( 12)
* Pull our shirts over our faces.

**Choice 4**

I can't believe we're breaking in.

* I've never done anything like this before.
* Are you sure this is okay?
* Ethan Frost. Billionaire. Genius. Criminal.

**Choice 5**

"Honey"?

* That's a new one.
* Are we married or what?
* You've never called me that before.

**Choice 6**

Well...

* I like being alone with you.
* It's incredibly steamy in here.
* I love it. It's like a jungle.

**Choice 7**

When I'm with you, I feel like...

* I'm about to dive off a cliff.
* I'm where I should be.
* My worries don't matter.

**Choice 8**

I should...

* Unbutton my blouse all the way. Let him touch me. ( 17)
* Touch him over his clothes. ( 12)
* Laugh.

**Choice 9**

Oh...

* That's all right.
* You're super-famous.
* How can you stand it?

**Choice 10**

Well...

* I'm still sorry.
* That's one way to look at it.
* I'll never be unfazed by it.

**Choice 11**

I'm going to...

* Cherish it always. ( 17)
* Pass.

Miles.

* The drama has to stop.
* Back the fuck off, traitor!

**Choice 13**

Oh.

* But who has the time?
* Thanks, but no.
* That doesn't sound true.

**Choice 14**

I'm going to...

* Tap the link and read the story. *(VIP choice)*
* Ignore it. I don't want to know.
* Ask Tori to keep bad news to herself.

**Choice 15**

Oh?

* I don't know what you're talking about.
* So what?
* I'll call security right now.

**Choice 16**

Just so we get one thing straight...

* You want a grandchild JUST to exploit them.
* You're fucking disgusting.
* You don't want to mess with Ethan Frost.

**Choice 17**

You don't understand, Robert.

* I'm not your way in. I'm a fucking guard dog. ( 17)
* I'm going to frame YOU for assault. ( 12)
* You're going to need help.

## ***Chapter Twelve: Lesson Learned***

**Choice 1**

Okay...

* You shouldn't use my boss as your messenger.
* I can't go to dinner this weekend.
* I... um... didn't see it.

**Choice 2**

You want the truth? I...

* Realized how much I care for you.
* Can't have you, so I need space.
* Am so afraid of hurting you.

**Choice 3**

I'll go with you...

* And thank you for being so good to me.
* But we can't plan beyond that. For your sake and mine.
* If you promise your idea really is excellent.

**Choice 4**

What?

* That's such a huge responsibility.
* I can't. Tori's apartment is pet-free.
* Emotionally, yes, but logically, I have to say no.

**Choice 5**

Yes!

* He can be ours. I want to get a dog TOGETHER. ( 17)
* He can be yours. Just yours.

**Choice 6**

*This is a fill-in-the-blank choice.*

* Name your puppy.

*Default is "Hercules".*

**Choice 7**

Let's...

* Play fetch with him.
* Play tug-of-war with him.
* Cuddle him and speak puppy-talk gibberish to him.

**Choice 8**

Well...

* It's... fine.
* It must be expensive.
* This is wasteful.

**Choice 9**

The truth is...

* I have a bad history with rich and powerful men. ( 17)
* Money and power corrupt, and that scares me. ( 12)
* Rich men are douchebags.

**Choice 10**

He's...

* Wonderful. I'm sure he gets it from you.
* Quite a handful.
* Never boring, that's for certain.

**Choice 11**

I know what I said about your house, but...

* This is really beautiful.
* I can see why you love it.
* I feel myself relaxing here.

**Choice 12**

I'll wear...

* Something colorful and femme. ( 17)
* A cute print with some more coverage. ( 12)
* This one-piece.

**Choice 13**

Ethan, I'm...

* Not exactly athletic. And the ocean looks angry.
* So ready for this!
* Always up for a private lesson.

**Choice 14**

I'll choose...

* The cute one.
* The simple one.
* The retro one.

**Choice 15**

I want you...

* Beside me every step of the way. Lesson, ocean, and victory smooch. ( 17)
* To let me do this alone.

**Choice 16**

Ethan...

* I keep my fair share of secrets, and you know it.
* You don't really know anything about me.
* You must think I'm a flight risk, huh?

**Choice 17**

Ethan...

* What are we doing? *(VIP choice)*
* You're so confusing.
* This is crazy.

**Choice 18**

I might tell you...

* Someday.
* If I have to.
* After you earn it.

**Choice 19**

I want to...

* Arch into him.
* Direct him to kiss my neck.
* Pull him close and nip his ear.

**Choice 20**

Oh, Ethan...

* Don't stop. ( 17)
* Stop, stop, stop.

**Choice 21**

I want you to...

* Hold me. Just hold me.
* Not blame me for this.
* Tell me everything is going to be okay.

## ***Chapter Thirteen: Hard Truth***

**Choice 1**

Ethan...

* Thank you.
* I'm sorry.
* I don't know what to say.

**Choice 2**

You want the truth, but...

* You don't. Nobody does.
* I can't.
* I don't even know where to begin.

**Choice 3**

You...

* Can't know that.
* Have to keep telling me that. I'm trying hard to believe.
* Don't understand what you're promising.

**Choice 4**

I'm going to...

* Climb into his lap and let him hold and comfort me. ( 17)
* Take his hand and hold it tight. ( 12)
* Keep my distance.

**Choice 5**

I was just so...

* Shy.
* Poor.
* Focused.

**Choice 6**

Oh, Ethan...

* I bet you would've been an amazing friend.
* You are completely underestimating my awkward phase.
* That would have made my life bearable.

**Choice 7**

I'm going to...

* Throw my drink in his face.
* Scream at him to leave me alone.
* Run and hide.

**Choice 8**

Yes...

* Even though I know you're not him.
* But I want to work on moving past it.
* Now you finally understand.

**Choice 9**

Yeah. I'm a virgin.

* Even dating and romance are new for me.
* You're the first to make me want to even try.
* Now it all makes sense, huh?

**Choice 10**

I want to...

* Walk down by the shore. ( 17)
* Have some tea. ( 12)
* Sit and just breathe.

**Choice 11**

He was rich, and...

* His parents made sure that didn't happen.
* Rich men never suffer consequences.
* I wasn't.

**Choice 12**

Yes, but...

* I trust you. *(VIP choice)*
* At least you get it.
* Money alone doesn't destroy a person.

**Choice 13**

Should I tell him?

* Yes. The whole truth.
* No, I'm not ready. Maybe later.
* No, I'm ashamed. I'll never tell him.

**Choice 14**

Ethan...

* You're not telling me everything.
* What are you hiding from me?
* Whatever you say.

**Choice 15**

I'll sleep...

* With you. ( 17)
* Alone.

## ***Chapter Fourteen: Wet Dream***

**Choice 1**

I'll wear...

* My man's shirt. ( 17)
* The silk set. ( 12)
* Yesterday's slip.

**Choice 2**

I'm...

* Okay. It was a long night.
* Feeling a lot better this morning.
* A little out-of-it. Still processing.

**Choice 3**

Well...

* You're spoiling me.
* I appreciate that you think of me so much.
* You know I don't care about fancy stuff.

**Choice 4**

Okay...

* Drama king.
* I didn't realize how passionate you were about this.
* What could you NEED me to have so badly?

**Choice 5**

Ethan...

* Yes. ( 17)
* I'll do it myself.

**Choice 6**

I think...

* It's perfect for me. Just like you.
* I have my work cut out for me, trying to match this.
* I like the reminder that I belong to you.

**Choice 7**

I'll start by...

* Straddling his lap.
* Kissing his chest.
* Giving him a love bite.

**Choice 8**

Mmm...

* Less talking, more kissing.
* I want you inside me.
* My heart is yours. Claim my body, too.

**Choice 9**

I'm going to...

* Take you into my mouth now. ( 17)
* Dance for you. ( 12)
* Kiss you SO hard.

**Choice 10**

No!

* You take over.
* I have to do this.
* Don't you want me?

**Choice 11**

When you look at me like that, I feel...

* Sexy.
* Exposed.
* Like you should be naked, too.

**Choice 12**

I...

* Have been SO stressed.
* Don't blame you for not noticing.
* Can deal. It's part of working hard.

**Choice 13**

I want you to...

* Get in with me. *(VIP choice.)*
* Bathe with me. ( 17)
* Give me some space.

**Choice 14**

I'm okay.

* Thank you for checking.
* I'm horny, though.
* I'm so relaxed.

**Choice 15**

Ethan...

* I know I don't have to. I WANT to.
* I'm already doing it.
* Shut up.

**Choice 16**

Ethan, please...

* I'm ready. I want you to be my first. ( 17)
* Fuck me like crazy. ( 12)
* Get it over with.

## ***Chapter Fifteen: Come Uppance***

**Choice 1**

Yeah, because...

* I have to win this back-and-forth.
* He's already given me enough.
* We do NOT need a $400 blender.

**Choice 2**

Yes, I did, and...

* He was a perfect gentleman. We're talking fairy-tale-level prince.
* Look at this belly chain!
* We got DIRTY. Down and DIRTY.

**Choice 3**

So, about this box...

* You'll never guess what's inside.
* I have a proposition for you.
* It's not a huge deal, but... I still can't keep it.

**Choice 4**

Then you'll have to...

* Think outside of the box.

I'm going to...

* Let him mark me. I'm his. ( 17)

Oh, Ethan...

* Give me an order I have to obey.
* Punish me for bringing the blender back.
* Tell me the dirty thoughts you're thinking.

**Choice 9**

Ethan...

* I need you inside me. I'm begging you. ( 17)
* I want you in my mouth. I want to make you come. ( 12)
* We're at work.

**Choice 10**

Chrissy...

* Why don't you repeat that?
* What is your problem with me?
* I'm going to report you to HR.

**Choice 11**

You...

* Jealous, presumptive bitch.
* Had better take a step back.
* Are going to get yourself fired.

**Choice 12**

No, I haven't forgotten.

* But I'm still not going to let you run me over.
* If you were going to tell, you would have.
* So do something.

**Choice 13**

Oh, it's on. I'm going to...

* Trip the bitch. ( 17)
* Remain cool and collected like the professional I am. ( 12)
* Beg her for mercy.

**Choice 14**

She...

* Hasn't gotten physical before today.
* Is always like this.
* Was under control. I could've handled that.

**Choice 15**

Ethan...

* Don't be too hard on her.
* Give her what she deserves.

**Choice 16**

This man! I'm going to...

Honey...

* Is something on your mind?

I see.

I'm going to slip in...
