He swore he’d never love. She swore she’d doesn't deserve it But some collisions are destiny.

Derrick Wilson is a man who has it all—money, power, and looks that could melt steel. As the elusive CEO of Sapphire Technology, he's untouchable, unshakable, and unapologetically dangerous. But beneath the cool billionaire façade lies a scarred past that shaped one unbreakable rule: never fall in love.

Caroline Jocque Johnson has no time for billionaires, playboys, or heartbreak. A brilliant, sharp-tongued doctor working with children no one else will fight for, she’s built her life around service, not sentiment. She’s done pretending the world is kind—and she's done believing in happy endings.

When Derrick’s world of glass towers and cold deals collides with Caroline’s world of scraped knees and broken hearts, neither is prepared for the fire it ignites. She challenges him in ways no one dares. He sees through walls she thought were indestructible.

And when past secrets threaten to destroy everything, they’ll have to decide: is love worth the risk—even when it’s the one thing they vowed never to need?

Bold, addictive, and full of explosive chemistry, Just the Two of Us is a gripping tale of guarded hearts, unexpected healing, and a love powerful enough to shatter every defense.

My Rules
Derricks Pov The alarm bell rang Gring… Gring.. Gring.. Ha my life Another fucktastic new day, terrific. I am so excited, you can literally feel the sarcasm on that one , I have to get up ,dress up, and start my freaking day. I put up my favourite motivation mantra Coach George styles, "life is like a peanut butter, It goes pretty well with toasted bread you just gat to enjoy it" Yeah totally love this dude, I hit the shower, use my favourite shampoo, blow dry my hair, went to my clothes collection,and suddenly think "ha what do I wear today" "Hi anika" "Hello boss" "What do you think I should wear today" "From my observation the weather would be very cool today so I advice something very warm boss" "Alright babe" You might be wondering who anika is right Well she is my creation, kind of like my Ai girlfriend just without a physical body. I made her as a freshman in college one of my finest creations. I pick up a maroon hoodie and a black pant, I went to my wrist watch collection and picked my million dollar gold carat customized wrist watch. Sprayed my favourite cologne. I stared at myself in the mirror and I looked… what's the word breathtaking I'm Derrick Winston, Ceo of Sapphire Technology, the best Ai tech producing company in all of America and the fregging world. I started my company at the age of 18 and today I'm on top. I'm 28 years old and a multi millionaire with blue eyes, blonde hair and natural tan skin, thanks to my mama. I'm what you will call a ladies man and a playboy a real life Ken. I have three rules Do whatever it takes to stay on top, never mix business with pleasure, and NEVER EVER EVER EVER FALL IN LOVE. I guess what you might be thinking wont you get lonely when you are 80 and about to die, Well I won't, I have anika my amazing girlfriend who would never leave me or die on me and I plan on having lots of Ai babies in the future trust me my future is going to be frigging bright and I'll have an epic fucktastic old age. And I also have Mrs Jones, my amazing house keeper and my second mom. Speaking of the little lady "Your breakfast is going to get cold, why are you getting up now?" an angry petite middle aged lady said with a glare on her face, looking like she was about to murder me with amazing plans on how to get rid of my body. Wow she's a ball of sunshine in the morning I thought "Good morning Sweetheart" I said blowing kisses at Mrs Jones "Good morning my boy" why are you getting up now she said with a more friendlier voice, Yup I still have her wrapped around my finger "Sorry, I had to take extra care of my face and my body, A face like this just doesn't happen". I said picking up an apple and taking a bite "I have to go now" "What about your breakfast", she said looking disappointed "Don't worry sweetheart I'll eat when I'm back, okay love you". I gave her a peck on the cheeks and left I went to my garage and picked my favourite latest babe. My new Mercedes 2024 customised and made for my fantasy. Trust me it's a stuff from my dreams I hit the gear and drove out, ready for a funtastic day Caroline P.O.V "Hey don't cry little bunny" this won't hurt remember how strong you are I said looking at 5 year old Allie who was looking like she was about to cry and pass out at the same time I was about to give her a shot she was down with a fever "Trust me this won't hurt", "trust me okay" I whispered giving her an encouraging Smile She smiled and looked less frightened "Alright I trust you " she said looking at me With loving eyes and I gave her the shot and ladies and gentlemen Allie did not cry "Such a strong girl" I muttered giving her back to her mother "Wow you're so good with children" Mrs Carson Allie's mother said "Huh…. thanks" I replied still smiling at Allie "Too bad you are never going to have yours because you have chosen not to and you're so young and beautiful" she said looking worried "Well I'm okay with that Mrs Carson, have already made that decision long ago" "Why? Is there any reason in particular, apart from being noble and virtuous"she said, looking at me with a serious expression. "Well there is, buts it's personal", I replied Writing out the med prescription for Allie "You know sometimes we take decision based on how we feel and how hurt we are but when we truly allow ourselves to heal we would understand that we truly do not need a shield to protect our souls" she said taking my hands "what we really need is love" "Well you got it all wrong Mrs Carson, I'm fine and I'm not wearing a shield" I said trying to convince her or maybe myself. Have been okay for the past 10 years after that tragic incident and I'm doing just fine "I'm very much okay and I don't need to get married or have kids to be happy beside I'm always surrounded by children so I can still be a mother in my own way, you know giving birth is not the only way to become a mother right" I said "Yes I know but" she said "That's why I'm helping kids at this child care foundation" I interrupted handing the prescription . "Doctor Caroline" Doctor Bryan my Co doctor at the foundation called "Sorry to interrupt but there a little lady at the hallway looking for you she said her name is Melissa " "Oh will you excuse me Mrs Carson" I said standing up" "It alright she said still giving me a look that says will continue this conversation another time" I went out and heard a loud voice "what's up my b***h" she said, attracting a lot of attention. "Melissa language" , I said giving her a warning look "Oh sorry sorry sorry", she said and I knew she was very far from being sorry. "Wheeeeew", she whistled "Who is that hot cup of chocolate" she said talking about Doctor Byran "Just shut up and follow me" I said, really amused . Yup this is mellisa or how I like to call her Mell for short before that horrible night where my whole life came to an end and I shut everyone out . Mell was my best friend, my partner in crime. We literally did everything together. But Mell is a little bit crazy "Doctor caroline, my friend" "Take a sit " I said smiling "So tell me how have you been, I missed you so much", she said more seriously "Why would you disappear on me like that" "I'm sorry, I just wanted to be alone, I wanted to find peace I'm still haunted by what happen that night " I replied She took a deep breathe, "Well I was super mad for a while and really wanted to rip your head off for snubbing me like that but I love you so I understand but are you happy now" she asked "Better" I replied softly "Okay enough of the sob story I did not come here for that , we have a lot of catching up to do for the past eight months. There is a new chicken restaurant downtown and I heard from my friend's sister's cousin that the chicken is worth dying for. So let's go" she said excitedly "Hum I can't", i said I have a lot of work here "Come on Carl it's just for us to eat and talk a little please" she said giving me her best puppy eyes "Fine 30 minutes"I said "40"she replied with her eyebrow curved up "35" and that's final I said with my game face on "Okay fine you win we will be back in 35 minutes she said finally giving up" Derrick Sweet mother cup of brownie I feel a migraine coming on, Have been in this meeting for the past 2 freeging hours and I feel like my brain is about to explode "Sir, why don't we approach the target market, for our next product release we have to make a precise research to get majority feedback on the previous project" Ava one of my senior staff in my company said "Yes i totally agree with that our previous release of the biogometric series was a huge success but our analytics showed that some of our customers where not fully satisfied" Ross voiced out " Alright Ava you be in charge of the team carrying out the research and give me feedback alright" I said "Ok boss", she replied Any other suggestions I asked "No boss", they all chorused "Well that would be the end of this meeting I think we all need a break", I said. Unlike your typical weird stuck up, period frustrated CEOs you have seen in movies, well I'm actually really chill with my team and in sapphire technology we are family here. "Yeah we really need a break boss and I think I speak for everyone , I'm going to bekkings the chicken there is a.m.a.z.i.n.g you really need to have a taste Derrick" Ross said with a dreamy look in his eyes "Why does it look like you are planning to have s*x with that chicken Ross" I asked picking up my laptop from the conference table "Well I would have, if that was possible, but unfortunately is not, and I don't want to be called a psycho yet, are you coming or not " He asked impatiently whining like a baby "Give me 5 minutes", I said "Hey…. handsome" Ava said in a seductive tone cat walking towards me like a model on a runway. Ava is a sexy goddess with a pretty face with an amazing body just the way I like it , she is a real life barbie. But Ava is definitely not a bimbo. She's one of the smartest women I know and a great asset to my company. We met in college and I immediately spotted her talent and I employed her immediately my company started. I have been ignoring her advances for years, not until two months ago when we had s*x it was great and wasn't planned , we met in a club in vegas not In the office, I don't shag in my office, I'm might be a player but I'm a player with principles and plus I don't mix business with pleasure and it will never happen again "I think I'll make that 30" Ross said wiggling his eyebrows and he left me that little piece of s**t "Hey Ava, how are you" "I'm fine, just someone has not been replying to my text messages or picking my calls" she said fluttering her eyelashes "Well, have been busy and you know that night was a one time thing and will never happen again" I said in a serious tone "I know, Is not like I'm asking to be your girlfriend I just want you that's all" she said placing her manicured finger on my chest "Well, it's never going to happen again Ava Besides I can't have s*x with you again, its against work ethics and my rules" I said removing her fingers from my chest, " I have to go now Ross is waiting, see ya later" I left without looking back to know how she felt "Well that was intense", Ross said smirking, "You know she actually likes you right" 'I don't care, you know I don't do relationships", I said entering my car "Have you ever consider falling in love with a woman that actually gets you, and completes you, love is not that bad you know", Ross said putting on his seat belt "Loving someone can be destructive, leave you shattered, and hopeless. I have seen what love can actually do firsthand and trust me when I say I'm good without it" . I said driving out "I hope one day you meet a stubborn, crazy woman that will make you change every decision that you've made in your life". "Bastard" , I muttered "Hey you don't have to be mean I'm giving a motivational speech here", Ross said looking hurt. "Not you, we are been followed", I said calmly "What the f**k", He looked at the back and saw the black jeep following us should we loose them he asked "Nope let's pretend we don't know, I need to know what these fucker actually wants, His been following me for the past 1 week and he is really terrible at it". I pulled up at bergings, and we entered into the restaurant, it was actually really nice with a warm vibe, a picture of a family on the wall maybe the owners, I thought "You like right", Ross said waiting for my approval and I just nodded I signal a pretty red head waitress over, "Good day Gentlemen", she said with a french accent and a smile on her face "Hello Gorgeous", Ross said obviously trying to charm his way into her pants, but was failing woefully. "Hello" she said giving him a curt nod And she turned to my direction becoming more polite "Hello sir", what would you like to order she asked with a blush on her face, I was about to use my charm and show Ross how it's done when the door of the restaurant open and two ladies step in the first one was a little ginger hair lady with dark clothing she looked fierce and had a pretty face with a bold red lipstick on, the other was a brunette, she was dressed in a long sleeve and a large pants that was just to big for her, but on a closer look you could tell she had an amazing figure under all that covering, I couldn't really see her face well and was still observing her, when the voice of our waitress distracted my thoughts "Sir I asked what are you ordering", she said again, trying to get my attention "Hmm just ask him," I said, still looking at the lady who was talking to her friend. "Well we have your special chicken and two bottles of coke please" , Ross said, attempting to salvage the situation and get her attention. "Okay" she said and left obviously angry at my lack of attention "You always get all the beautiful ladies, so sad that there don't know you're a walking, moving, breathing heartbreaking machine", Ross said with an annoyed look Which I only smirked at in response "Here is your order", our waitress said but not as friendly as she was earlier, I wanted to charm her again, when the door burst open and two men with guns came in "Everybody lie down on the floor or I blow your damn brains off, where is the f*****g money," the short one said obviously trying to be intimidating but he looked like he was forced to be here "I'm not playing, this is a gun and there is a bullet in it and I'm gonna kill everyone if you dont get your ass down and give me the money, and nobody f*****g try to call the cops all there would be blood" the taller one said, obviously the leader of this boy band From my calculation, I knew I could take down this two wannabe gangstar down by myself the shortie doesn't even know how to use the gun and was obviously a sidekick to the tall depressed one "Derrick.. Derrick" why aren't you lying down, Ross whispered looking at me "Just sit this one out", he said "Hey pretty boy, I said lie down or do you want to die, I could f*****g kill you here", the depressed one said pointing the gun at me "Oh my gosh I'm so scared, doomsday here is going to end me", I said with a mock filled expression "You bastard, Ill kill" you the depressed one said obviously pissed, reminding me of a villain in my favourite childhood cartoon Doctor Alberto with smoke coming at of his ears and eyes it was super funny, okay enough joke, time to take down this bastard and put an end to these shenanigans I was about to strike, when a strong powerful kick landed on depressed dude over here which sent him falling on his ass and the gun falling from his hands What the f**k is actually happening, I look and I saw the lady from earlier looking pissed and f*****g sexy at the same time Sweet.. baby.. Jesus
