CHAPTER EIGHT
The light flicked on mid scream. My voice stopped short at the sight.
"Mr Drey?" There was a scared and distressed look on his face. Most likely from my fright."Why did you scream?" He left the door post and walked forward."You scared me. I was supposed to be the only one on this floor." I placed my hand on my racing heart. "Why are you still here? And in the dark at..." He looked at his wrist "...9pm?""There was so much to do and I didn't want to leave without completing the icons." He sighed a long sigh. He motioned to the laptop."Let me see what you've done so far."My heart jumped to my throat as I swallowed nervously."Uhm... how about I show you tomorrow?" He was confused "Why tomorrow? You're here now." He made total sense but as he moved closer, all I could think about was how he smelled and the fact that only two of us were probably left in the building asides security.He had ditched his suit forRelated chapters

"Please come up to the first floor." The secretary had said. The ride to the first floor had me thinking about every life choice that had led me up to this point. I scrambled my brain trying to look for what I might've done wrong and if it was related to the commotion happening on apparently, every floor.I didn't have to wonder for much longer. I had reached the first floor.I walked up to the secretary and she asked me to hold on till Mr Drey was ready.Five minutes later I was called into his office."Miss Victoria, you're here. Please have a seat." Josh was nowhere to be found this time as I looked around.Mr Drey seemed to be in a chipper mood, only confusing me further.Without wasting time, he dropped the exact shoe I was dreading."You'll be taking over the design team as the team leader.""Wh..what?" I stuttered, my brain finding it difficult to catch up."What do you mean team leader? What about Jeni?" When I came to think a

I froze. I hadn't heard from him in at least 6 months so, there was absolutely no reason for him to call me. The phone stopped ringing. Maybe it was a mistake. I walked into my room and slumped on the bed. My phone rang again and this thing, I answered the call. I didn't mutter a word and waited for him to speak."Hey!" Michael had always had a hold on me. I had loved his soft voice. The gentle way with which he spoke. I had fallen for him almost immediately but then I remembered what he did. Who he did. He had no right to sound so chipper over the phone."Yes?" "You okay?""Yes." He was only going to get one worded answers from me.He chuckled as if nothing affected him. As if he wasn't in the wrong. As if my feelings never mattered."You're moody as usual." I could hear him smile over the phone and tongue cut loose."What do you want?" Anger apparent in my tone."Chill!" He chuckled again. I was seconds away from smashing my phone."I just wanted to check up on you and invite you t

The MOD app had taken the world by storm and we were recording numbers we never imagined. It was a huge success."Damn girl! I knew you could do it" Thea yelled over the noise in the club. She'd thought it was something worth celebrating and so, we found ourselves at the club, on a typical friday night.I peered around trying to be subtle as possible. Thea gasped beside me, a sly smile on her face."You're looking for him, aren't you?" "What? Pfft. No!" I said a little too quickly."You are. Oh my God. You like him!" I shushed her."No, I don't. I was just looking around.""Yeah, for him." I rolled my eyes and asked her to drop it. There was a one in a million chance that he was actually going to come around.He didn't and I didn't want to admit to myself that I was actually disappointed. I had to distance myself from him. I had to forget every brush of his skin on my skin. Every smile he had given me because he didn't like me. He was only appreciative of my work. I groaned as I drag

“I don’t think you did it” My hands froze over the door handle.“You don’t?” I sniffled. Darn it! I promised myself I wasn’t going to cry. I turned back and looked at him and I could swear his eyes softened a bit. I wiped my face quickly.“The hell is wrong with you man? Here.” Josh handed me a tissue. I muttered a thank you and sat down. “I’m not sure who did it but I’ll find out.” His jaw locked.I tried to think hard on who could’ve done it but I came up short. Josh rubbed my shoulder and whispered in my ears.“Don’t mind him. He’s been irritable lately because he hasn’t had a woman in years.” My nose scrunched up in disgust.“Ew!” I smacked his arm. I didn’t need to know that. Mr Drey’s eyes locked on Josh’s arm across my shoulders and I felt the urge to move it away. I didn’t. I stared at him instead. He was acting like a girl on her period. One minute he was fine, the next, he was angry. Josh didn’t notice him glaring daggers at him. As usual, he was always oblivious to his sur

“Dara, would you mind if I put you in charge of the team of the team today?” I spared a glance at her as I hurriedly stuffed my bag with work materials and everything I couldn’t take from home for an impromptu trip with Kol. Dara had been the most supportive and she had mad skills in design. She was capable of handling the team. All she needed was to be bolder and this task was supposed to help her do that. Her eyes bulged behind her glasses making her look funny. Those lenses were quite thick. “I’m sorry to spring this up on you last minutes but I believe in you. You can do it.” I cheered her on as I picked up my bag. To ease her stress, I asked for the team to cooperate with her and that if she had any issues with any of them or any at all, she shouldn’t hesitate to reach out to me. I had no idea where we were going. Only that we were going somewhere far. Kol’s call had woken me up so early in the morning. “Be ready by 10, we’ll be leaving for the airport. There is a global tech

I tried to pull my hand back but he didn’t let me go. The action forced us closer instead. My heart palpitated dangerously in my chest at the dark look on his face. My eyes fell to his lips as his tongue darted out to lick them. Goosebumps erupted all over my flesh and my face subconsciously moved closer to his till there was only a hair’s breadth separating us. I could feel his warm breath over my face. My lips parted in anticipation. All I wanted in that moment was for him to close the distance between us and seal my lips with his. I wanted to know if I was the only one with those emotions raging inside me, stirring my heart in his direction. He leaned forward and I closed my eyes in anticipation. A groan from Josh forced my eyes open and I realised what I was doing. What could’ve happened. What I could’ve let happen. I took advantage of the momentary distraction and pulled my hand from his, stumbling backwards. His face hardened as we moved away from each other. Was he realising

He laughed. His laugh was so loud that I worried about him. For the first time I ever, I saw dimples in his cheeks. I had no idea he had them. I hated that he had more hidden features that made him more attractive than he already was. Dimples or not, I was still pissed at him."What exactly is funny Mr Drey?" My brows rose in defiance. I folded my hands over my chest, unconsciously lifting my b**bs higher. It didn't go unnoticed by him. I swallowed as he forced me into the door, the handle digging into my back."I thought I told you to call me Kol." "It's my mouth. I can call you whatever I want." I replied acidly. I expected him to draw back and leave in annoyance. He didn't. "and your mouth will put you in trouble." He said, placing his index finger on my lower lip. I inhaled sharply. I could hear my heart pounding so loudly in my chest. He moved his gaze from my lips and looked down into my eyes. My breath stopped short. His pupils were dilated and he leaned forward. I had no id

I didn't have to wonder long. The lips that had found mine pressed together firmly in a thin line.When I woke up, I hadn't found him. I had walked to his door to knock when Josh found me."He already left." I turned to Josh, my mouth open to question him."He had to be there earlier than us to meet certain people. We'll just join him there." He shrugged.My face fell in disappointment. I was hoping we could see, so we could talk about what transpired between I us last night. My fingers found my lips and I blushed at the thought."Are you okay?" "What? Of course I am.""Well, you look flushed." I reached up to my face and felt my cheeks. They felt hot."I am." I reassured him, smiling. We got to the venue which was only 10 minutes away from our hotel. The conference centre was so huge in comparison to most buildings I'd been in. Josh had left to go find Kol and asked me not to move too far so he could locate me easily.I looked around with my mouth ajar in awe. The lights looked like
