I do not wait for him to reply,
“you know what, I don’t need an answer I am here to figure it all out anyways, now if you would excuse me little one,”
I say to him, shoving his shoulder a little harshly with my shoulder as I walk past him, leaving a very angry looking Stiliyan behind, I felt that stupid wave of electricity again as my shoulder felt those hard muscles underneath his cloth, I quickly shrug it off, like seriously!, I am really in no mood, damn!
I felt this electricity thing when I was poking him too, and now I feel it again?? urghh, ‘stupid hormones!’ groaning internally.
I am seated back on my seat and I begin to reminisce on what just happened, I know I hurt him, I saw it in his eyes before he masked his emotion with anger, I guess he is really good at flickering his emotions and facial expressions, I was going to keep quiet about what I know, he probably worked for his money or something, how he got the money is really none of my business and the fact that he is an orphan is obviously a terrible thing to him to the extent he is not open about it, there really must be something to it, but I just needed to say something to throw him off guard because he really hurt me with his words.
I was contemplating on apologizing to him but I wave the idea off, what is done is done, the less contact the better,
I did my background check on Stiliyan this morning on my way to Anna’s, I really wanted to know more about Stiliyan, especially after the phone call we had last night, the internet says nothing about his family, but focused on the fact that he is a millionaire and how he started his company with the help of his uncle, which was not good enough for me so I called an old friend of mine, ‘Eliot,’ I met Eliot in college, the guy is really good with his computer and can track down anyone or get you information about anything or anybody in seconds,
Five minutes after my phone conversation with Eliot, I receive an email from Eliot which was unlike him, he usually sends whatever I ask for in seconds, but I don’t mind as I am just glad he has sent me the information I requested for, and that is when I knew he was an orphan and had no other family relation, but how he made the money to start up ‘DIVO TECH’ or how he started it up was not stated, so I called Eliot and he said getting that little piece of information was really hard, and really hard for Eliot is impossible for a lot of people, he says the person I am trying to know about is really good at hiding what he doesn’t want others to know.
The rest of the flight to Bulgaria was uneventful, john literally slept the whole while, I think john is on pills because I have no idea how he could sleep all through, Stiliyan stayed locked up in his room, while I watched movies, played games, listened to music and just slept for the next 6 hours.
The pilot makes an announcement indicating that we have arrived at our destination, we were now at Sofia City Bulgaria, I stand up to pick up my things and notice John Is up, he gives me a friendly smile as he begins to gather up his things, at that moment, Stiliyan walks past me heading towards John, they are having a conversation that is inaudible to my ears, after a few seconds, Stiliyan walks away and out of the plane.
“Miss Catalina, here is my card, it has my number on it and also here is Miss Nina’s number and information, a chauffeur is right outside for you, it would take you straight to the hotel you reserved, you just have to let him the name of the hotel or wherever you are headed, If you need to move around the city or come by the office the ride is available to you round the clock, see you around then,”
John says to me, waiting to see if I have any questions or anything to say,
“Thank you john, I really appreciate, if I have any questions or need any help, would be sure to give you a call,” he gives me a nod and walks out of the plane,
I follow behind him,I am out of the plane and I notice two cars, I see john is heading to the one in front, a black tinted Rolls Royce, I guess Stiliyan has a thing for Rolls Royce, he used the same car back in Manhattan, then I notice a man in his mid-forties open the door to the black Audi, gesturing me to come his way,
“I guess that’s my ride,” I say to myself a little disappointed.
“Where are you headed ma’am? I notice he has an accent, but it was nothing compared to Stiliyan, wow I guess I am comparing everything with Stiliyan now, feeling irritated with myself I look up and notice his eyebrows are raised looking confused not sure if I heard him or not,
“grand pavilion hotel please, I didn’t get your name?”
“Oh! Sorry about that, my bad, you can call me Philip,” “okay, Philip, do you work for Stiliyan?” “Yes, I do ma’am, bless that young man’s soul,” he replies cheerfully as he does the sign of the cross, a religious act of prayer,
“Wow, you really love your boss don’t you?” “With my entire heart ma’am, our young Stiliyan is absolutely the best, an Angel!! He saved a lot of us from rotting away in poverty you know, I don’t think I can ever be able to repay him but I sure would be able to do my job properly if it can be of help to him in any way”
he says this with so much respect and adoration in his voice, Philip seems chatty so I decide to pry him with questions as we head to our destination,
“What do you mean he saved a lot of you?” “Well you know the government decided to close down the orphanage and the employment rate was close to zero, there were no jobs available and the ones that were vacant paid chump change that could barely feed a mouth for a day,”
“So he just happened to come across a rundown orphanage and employed the workers?” I asked looking confused,
“of course not ma’am, he says to me chuckling, “The orphanage was a place our young Stiliyan spent about ten years of his life,” Philip starts to look a little disillusioned and deep in thought with his forehead furrowed looking a bit guilty as if he just said something he shouldn’t have said, so I just let him be, and decided not to pry any further.
I am at my hotel room, I booked the penthouse suite, apparently there is just two of this suite in the hotel, and the other is occupied, the door is right opposite mine, my suite looks really beautiful, more beautiful than the pictures, and for a hotel it is up to standards,it has a breathtaking view of the city, the sitting room has large space with a 60 inch television, and don’t get me started with the kitchen, the kitchen is absolutely divine, with the beautiful designed marble tops and space, I am afairly good cook but I don’t cook as much as I ought to, I’m just too lazy for that I guess, moving on to the bedroom, it has a really large king size bed and a huge walk in closet, with a magnificent bathtub. I start unpacking my clothes and my mind begins to wonder to the conversation I had with Philip earlier, If I was curious before, right now my curiosity level was off the charts, I needed to know what Stiliyan Dimitros story was all about, I know this is not part of
It’s been 5 days since I have been in Bulgaria, 5 days since I have constantly dreamt of Stiliyan, I dream of him touching me, wanting me, plastering kisses all over my body, marking me with hickeys as a sign that I am his, he has been in my every thought and I see him whenever I close my eyes. It’s been five days of torture, deep down I wish he would call me.The first day we met I knew I saw desire and want in his eyes, I knew he felt what I felt, but ever since that day he has been extremely cold and distant, is it because I am to be married?I feel so frustrated because I try, I really try not to think of him but I can’t help it but I am at least glad I am not shameless enough to call him.I have not seen Stiliyan once, not that I tried, but I have been to his company every day, I have seen Nina from afar we are yet to meet still, she seems really nice, confident and open minded, everyone at the company is really focused at work and s
As we drive in, I see people all dressed up walking towards the ball, looking absolutely beautiful.We finally get to the entrance and I quickly thank Philip as I step out of the car, putting on my mask, I check my phone and see its 9pm, right on time I say to myself.I begin to walk towards the huge oak door, and I am stopped by the guard,“name please?” he asked “Catalina Brooks” I reply a little nervous, I’m nervous because I feel Stiliyan might have known by now that i am on the guest list and decided to take me out and if he has not figured it out, how would he react once he sees me, I am brought out of my thought when I hear,“welcome Miss Catalina have a lovely night,”he says something inaudibly to his earpiece and immediately the door opens.As I walked in, I was in total awe by the marveling sight bestowed upon my eyes, an elderly looking man interrupted my gawking asking if I would like my purse to be taken care of, I lo
His lips captures mine roughly, demanding access with his tongue ,devouring my lips like he could not get enough, I effortlessly matched the intensity of his kiss, as I felt I could not get enough of him either, he places his hands behind my thighs and lifts me swiftly, I wrap my legs around his waist ,he leads me into the living room, closing the door with his legs, kissing Stiliyan was a million times better than I had ever imagined, my whole body was on fire.He breaks the kiss, staring into my eyes, his eyes in a shade of deep green filled with desire,“lead me to your bedroom Catalina” he says to me, in a low whisper, our forehead against each other, I couldn’t help but blush at the way he says my name with that voice, he gently lets me down and I begin to walk slowly, with him trailing behind, It takes only a few seconds to get to the bedroom, I enter inside the bedroom, Stiliyan behind me, I was expecting him to continue the kiss but he takes a sit on the ch
Waking up to the rays of sunlight on my face, I squint my eyes raising up my palm in an attempt to block the rays from my face, the events of last night starts crashing down, I smile to myself, as I turn to my side to check on Stiliyan, I sit up in panic as I realize I am the only one on my bed,‘did he regret last night and leave me?’ I ask myself, as pain starts to swirl in my chest, standing up hurriedly wincing a little, as I am still sore from last night, I rush into the bathroom and it was empty, my panic increases, picking up my pace,I halt when I see a shirtless Stiliyan, his back to my face and his face directed towards the stove.Relief flushing through my entire body,I let out a loud sigh which unintentionally gains his attention, he turns around Cocking his brows as his eyes trail my body, staring at me from up to down, realizing quickly I am stack naked ,I forgot to throw on a robe due to my p
I listened never interrupting, the tears I was trying so hard to hold in came flowing down, my heart aches in so much pain, I never would have guessed he had it this bad, I felt so sad for him, all I wanted wasto love him with every bone in my body and make all his pain go away but I fear he would never be mine and I would never be his, he walks up to me, wiping off the tears from my face and hugs me, he is hugging me like he is saying goodbye, I pull away and stare at him,“No Stiliyan, I understand everything you just said and i am terribly sorry for been selfish and forcing you to do something that is clearly almost impossible, but don’t you dare tell me it’s goodbye or start avoiding me again” I say to him in between sobs,“Catalina, you...,” “three weeks Stiliyan, let us be with each other for just three weeks, if after three weeks you still feel like there is nothing that can be done I would leave and get married never looki
‘My best friend Anna is on her way here,” I say to him running my fingers through my hair, he looked worried, his forehead creased, he looked like he was about to speak when I heard a loud bang on the door, I become really nervous,Stiliyan still gorgeously shirtless, he gently places the clothes on the sofa,“should I hide or something, I can sneak out, take her to the bedroom,” he says, with a smirk, I guess he found this amusing,“Catalina!! Can you hear me?” I heard Anna say, banging the door,“Don’t you dare move,” I say to him, I open the door and see a very pissed Anna,“seriously!!! Cat, I called, I texted, what the hell, I was getting really worried” she said to me as she walked in,“What the actual fuck!”Anna says stopping dead in her tracks,“hold on let me explain” i say to her quickly closing the door and run over to stand in front of Stiliyan,“Are you crazy? Is this some kind of joke? Y
“Wow! mmhhmmm,” I mumbled inaudibly as I savagely ate my food, it was a traditional Bulgarian dish “Banitsa” a traditional pie made of white cheese and whisked eggs layered in Phyllo dough, Stiliyan decided I should try something new and I don’t regret it, it tasted beautiful, absolutely divine, I finally looked up with my mouth full and notice he was staring, looking amused,“Is the food that great?” he said to me with a smirk on his face, my face flushed, a little embarrassed,“yes it’s really good and besides I’m so hungry, cut me some slack, can you please eat your food so you won’t have to stare at me ,”“Staring at you is inevitable ‘moya iyubov’ so don’t ask me to,” I looked confused, “it means my love,”that made me red like a tomato as I blushed like a middle school child,“Cocky much Stiliyan, can you please allow me to finish my meal,” I said to him, pretending to be irritated, I covered my face with my hai
