The rising sun casts its full ray on Paige's window causing an almost invisible glow on her soft skin as a result of the curtains acting as a barrier between the sun and her lovely skin. Morning came too late for Paige, who unfortunately, couldn't catch any sleep last night.On the other hand, the likes of Simon were praying for morning not to come yet. For the first time in a while, he finally got to have a peaceful night rest, void of nightmares and discomfort. The Kentleys and Paige had a peaceful breakfast before she left for the cardiac center with Simon.He saw her in the black Mercedes parked in the garage and helped her in before taking his place at the driver's seat. They kicked off their journey to the cardiac center, leaving the mansion behind."What is your favorite food?" He asked, sparking up a conversation as they drove down."I honestly have no idea." Paige chuckled. "Why do you ask?" "Nothing." He responded as he maneuvered the steering wheel. "I was just looking for
Simon came down from the car and helped Paige down as well. They headed to the reception which was a building closest to the car park. They were met by one of the cardiologists working at the center, just before they could get to the receptionist desk."Hello, Mr. Kentley." The cardiologist greeted, stepping forward for a handshake."Dr. Julian, it feels good to be here and lovely to see you again." Simon replied as they shook hands warmly. "Please, meet Paige," he introduced them, "Miss Paige is a Nurse. She works at Elfer-Town." He added."It's a pleasure meeting you, Miss Paige." Julian told Paige with a warm smile, while stretching out his right hand for a handshake."It's my pleasure as well." Paige replied, taking his hand in a handshake. "I must commend you and your team for doing such a great job here. It's really not an easy task, one bit." She praised Julian, who nodded in agreement."Thank you so much Miss Paige." He said to her cheerfully."Oh please, Paige, Paige is perfe
THE KENTLEYS MANSIONPaige knocked softly on Emily Kentley's door after freshening up. Her respect for Simon grew exceedingly after their day's journey to the cardiac center.She saw Simon in another light, kind and soft at heart. Maybe she misjudged him previously. She only saw the surface and failed to see the other part of him. But then, it wasn't entirely her fault. He didn't leave her with much choice when he said he wanted her as a fuck mate. Not only did he sound vile, he sounded pompous as well, no matter how much anybody decided to sugarcoat it.While in the bathroom moments ago, she had imagined being as wealthy as Simon Kentley and running a financially draining charity home such as the cardiac center. It definitely won't be easy for her, because a third of her earnings might go into purchasing designer accessories for herself.She has never owned such except for the hand me downs she always gets from auction sales. Some of her purchases were outfits and accessories with t
Simon stood in his study, behind the drawing room. The last time he was there, he had his younger brother, Theodore throwing his toys all over the room while Simon kept complaining. That was years ago.He looked round the room, it felt so strange being inside there after avoiding it for a very long time. Theodore's tiny voice rang through his head as he recalled how sweet the little boy was. How much he always required Simon's full attention while he talks about everything and nothing.Simon smiled dryly at how much he missed those days. He walked over to the shelves that held some of Theodore's favorite books, built specifically for him when Simon realized that the lad had no plan of leaving him alone each time he stepped into the study.The shelves were all sparkling neat, none of the books were dusty, same as the whole study. He had instructed Sherman days ago to move the books and documents in his room to the study and ensure that it was cleaned up while at it. The study was for
Once Anna was out of the room, Simon placed a call to Charles, one of his most trusted men at his Lakeview apartment. "Charles." He called into the phone."Good day Boss." Charles greeted."We are paying Dasilver an unfriendly visit tonight. Get everyone and everything ready. I will meet you at the safehouse." He told Charles, before hanging up the call.He looked round the study one more time and his eyes fell on his favorite novel as a teenager, "The silky petal." He smiled as he recalled how much he prayed to fall in love with someone that matches the exact description of the lady in the book. Little did he know that he was just letting his imagination run wild. There was no such lady in the world. Even if there was, why would she want to settle for someone as damaged as him. Yes, damaged is the word, the right word to use. He shuddered at the thought. If he was damaged, why then was he trying so hard to impress Paige, to get her to see him in another light, maybe fall in love w
Melissa waited for Simon to say a word in reply but got nothing from him. Instead, he stepped away from her. Went to one of the shelves on the wall, located a box, opened it up and took out two soft velvet padded handcuff, alongside a simple black satin blindfold.Melissa watched with keen interest as he walked up to her. He turned her gently towards the bed and his fingers grazed her bossom, she let out a gentle moan.Now facing the bed, she awaited his next move. She knew he was up to something, but for some reason, she didn't want to turn towards his direction. She wanted to be surprised by him. So, she waited in anticipation.Simon held her hand, and gently drew her close to the left pole of the bed. "Remove this." His deep voice commanded, touching to her panty.Melissa smiled, creating a thin line on both sides of her lips, while removing her panty. Simon placed the velvet padded handcuffs on each of her wrists and hooked each of them with the bed poles on each side of the bed,
After Simon's encounter with Melissa, he got back to his room with mixed feelings. He tried catching some sleep, but like his previous visit to Lakeview, he was unable to access that level of unconsciousness once again. It was obvious that he now sleeps better at Creek Island.All his attempts at sleeping that night proved abortive. In the absence of sleep, he started going through memory lane from the very first day he saw Paige at the hospital, to living with her in the same house.His kind wandered to the last time he visited Anna's home at Acubana. She had invited him to one of her colleagues' birthdays, which she insisted that he must attend. Who was he to refuse the almighty Anna Kentley. Of course, he attended the party, where he came across Cartomancer, who urged him to pick a card. It was a tussle between him and the card reader. He had refused and she insisted that he must. When he finally picked one of the cards courtesy of an extra from his sister, the Cartomancer told him
Breakfast with the Kentleys was fun especially for Paige who has missed their continuous adorable use of sarcasm every now and then."We will visit the beach, go shopping and have spa dates. The movies too, and of course the famous Acubana waterfall." June said excitedly."That will be your hundredth visit to the said waterfall." Simon chipped in."I don't remember complaining to you. Mum hasn't been to the waterfall at all. So, I don't mind visiting one more time." June replied, giving her brother a side eye "We will also visit the rocky mountain at Acubana, Brother. I've not been to that one." She taunted Simon."Why exactly are you telling us all this? Nobody cares anyway." He said, tugging on her very last nerve."Oh, but I know you care. You do care, and that is why I'm giving you a few deets. That way, your imagination can run wilder." She replied.Simon sighed and shook his head. Anna was a pain but June, she was on another level. "I think I need some rest, my head aches badly.
