I groaned, reluctantly waking up again as the sun rays kissed my face, I buried myself deeper into the bed and covers, breathing in the familiar cologne Iingering around me. I turned to the other side and froze feeling something firm and warm. I open my eyes taking a peek at William’s sleepy face. I lay there staring at him and a smile formed on my face as I remembered the events of this morning.As I rose from the bed, I felt pulled back as I felt a dull ache between my legs, a painful reminder of the intense morning we shared. He certainly wasn't kidding when he said he wasn't a gentleman.I rubbed my face glancing around the room. My eyes landed on the clock that read 3 p.m. Pushing the covers a bit away from me, my hand instinctively covered my mouth to stop a shriek from escaping my lips as the realization hit me, I was naked and so was William in his masculine glory, a wave of nervousness washed through me and I immediately pulled the covers back. Feeling flushed, I turned back
I groaned as I felt William lightly shake me awake. I don’t even know why I agreed to join him at the gym so early in the morning on a freaking Sunday.“I’m up, I’m up” I mumble with a scowl as I stretch. I glance at the active William then close my eyes more before releasing a breath as I get up from the bed.How he had his energy at full speed at this time in the morning was a mystery.I sluggishly walked into the bathroom to brush and have my shower. I set the shower to cold so that it could wake me up faster. I wasn’t about to drink black coffee to do that.After showering, I walked into the closet, pulling on a white tank top and black biker shorts. I laced up my sneakers before making my way out of the closet, I picked up my phone making my way out of the room and to the kitchen to get a bottle of water.William was in the kitchen, eating an apple. I walked to the fridge to get my bottled water before taking in his clothes properly, he was putting on a black wife beater, basket
I got bored, so I wandered off and found myself on a basketball court on one of the floors of the building. I walked further in, picking a basketball off the rack.“You play?” I heard William ask and spun around on the ball of my feet, dropping the ball. I picked it back up and looked at him, noticing that he was leaning on the door with his arms folded.“Can you stop acting like a ninja? And to answer your question, no, I don’t play, do you?” I ask and he shrugs, not answering as he walks into the court fully. “It’s a yes or no question.” Still, he doesn’t reply. Instead, he takes the ball from me and throws it, I turn watching as the ball glides into the hoop with such precision.“You’re joking,” I comment with my mouth agape before quickly shutting it. “You never did say anything about basketball, you said you were in a rugby team so how are you good at basketball?” I ask huffing as I walk over to pick up the ball.“I dabbled in a variety of sports but I was only officially on the
I waited in the car while William had an intense fight with Luke about work. They stood in front of the car and Romeo had already left a few minutes back. After a short slightly heated exchange, William did a bro-hug with Luke before getting into the car and starting the engine.“Don’t forget about the sweets you promised me.” I reminded him as he began to drive.“I already had someone take it to the house.” He replied and I nodded, opening a bottle of water I had taken from the fridge before we left. As I took a gulp, I thought of how much fun I had at the gym today. It was surprising because I didn’t think it would be possible since I had never been interested in anything related to a gym or any form of sports before.When we got back home, we each had our showers in separate bathrooms. While showering, I decided I was going to spend the rest of my day in the pool. I put on a two-piece bikini and a large cotton-white robe. I knotted the robe well and piled my hair up in a messy bun
By the time I woke up the next day, William had already left for work. I lazily reached for my phone and started scrolling through my contact list searching to find Shayna’s number. Once I found it, I dialed and listened to it ring. She picks up almost immediately. “Oh hey Mrs Armani, so nice of you to finally remember me.” She said sarcastically.I rolled my eyes. “Come on Shay, we texted each other just yesterday.”“Can’t I be dramatic in peace?” She asks rhetorically. “What’s up?”“I’m good, I’m good. What about you? Are you at work?” I ask, hearing ruffling on the other end.“No.”“No?” I repeated feeling baffled. “I don’t understand. Today is Monday, the first day of the week.”“No kidding Einstein, I know my weekdays.” She replies and I could already imagine her rolling her eyes on the other side of the line. “I took a day off.”“Oh, why?” I ask curiously.“Because…….” She drawls with no intention of elaborating.“That's not even a reason,” I reply laughing, she joins in with
I watched as William walked out of the closet wearing only his office slacks with his shirt unbuttoned. I could never fully look away anytime William’s chiseled abs were on display. He noticed my gaze, a subtle smirk forming on his face. He walked closer to the bed and leaned down, holding my neck lightly as he raised my head. I met my lips with him, I parted mine slightly, letting his tongue in to explore mine briefly before pulling away, Just that short kiss left me already weak in the knees.The week flew by in a blur and It was already a Thursday. Romeo had texted me, mentioning that he got my number from William and inviting me to his beach theme birthday coming up on Saturday. So that meant I had to shop for a gift for him but I didn’t exactly know him and I needed William’s help with that.“Ask away,” William says, interrupting my thought as he buttoned his shirt.“What time do you think you’ll clock out from the office today?” I asked, playing with the sleeves of my pajamas, g
It was Friday and before leaving for work, William had informed me to pack a bag for the weekend. We were heading somewhere for Romeo’s birthday. Romeo was having his birthday at a private beach and according to William, he got a cabin for all his guests to be situated a day before his birthday.I packed all the essentials for the weekend into the carry-on bag and although William was of no help yesterday concerning the gift, he sent me a text informing me of Romeo’s shirt size along with the items he wanted me to pack for him.Bossy much?Cedrick picked me up from the house and I went shirt shopping before he dropped me off at William’s office parking lot. I took the elevator to his floor and walked out once the doors slid open.“Good evening Henry.” I greeted him as I walked up to his desk.“Evening Bailey.”I glance at William’s office door. “Is William in a meeting?” I asked, turning to Henry.“No. He’s in the office, you can go right in.”“Thank you.” I walked up to his door, pl
William’s P.O.VI could hear the sound of music and chatter from a mile away. Romeo was known for throwing extravagant parties and today’s party was nothing short of that. Out of the three of us, he was the most outgoing and most social. The pathway was lined with tiki torches, illuminating the place with a soft, flickering glow, on one side, a bar beckoned guests and a bonfire in the center cast shadows on the beach sand.I surveyed all the guests he had invited and I was surprised, it seemed he kept the guest list short. As I strolled through the entryway, I picked up a glass of martini from a waiter with a tray.I immediately spot Romeo with Luke and walk to them. “William,” Romeo shouts, waving to me.“Is he drunk already?” I asked Luke arching a brow at Romeo as I skeptically observed him as he sipped from his glass. Luke turns to Romeo and runs his eyes over his face for a moment before shifting his attention back to me. “I think so, his party is only just starting. From what
