After lunch, we went back to Alex's office. He wanted to spend some more time with me, before he flew out at six pm.
He sat behind his desk looking over more documents that his assistant had just brought in. I lay down on the sofa, and took out my mac book, i started to write my thesis, i mean if he was going to be doing his work i might as well get some work of my own done. Comfortable silence filled the room as we both concentrated on what we were doing, half an hour went by and i paused to look at him. He seemed so at ease in his position, like he had done this so many times before. It was hard to imagine the diligently working man in front of me to be a lazy play boy ad the tabloids had portrayed him. But again he could still be that person, maybe he was pretending right now amd if that was a case he must be a really good actor. I must have stared at him for more than five minutes or longer before he spoke up startling me, "Do yoAlex.After thoroughly going over the new revised plan, my assistant left to prepare for our departure. I looked over to see Maya sleeping on the couch, her back facing me.I walked over and took my jacket and covered her with it. I stood over her for a moment, my hands in my pocket as i watched her. She was so beautiful, her brows were neat and thick, she had a small nose and full lips. She was sleeping so peacefully.I bent down to brush a trand if hair off her face and kissed her on the forehead. I stared at her a little longer.A knock on the door took my attention from Maya, my assistant was reminding me it's time to go. He looked at Maya sleeping on the couch, "Should we wake her up?"I looked back at Maya, who was peacefully sleeping and smiled, "No just let her sleep."*****MAYA. Finally, Friday came, it couldn't come any faster, the last three nights were rough, long and lonely. I didn't really think i would be this attached to him already. The house felt so empty without h
I heard Olivia talking in the phone, so it means he picked up. I didn't really hear any part of the conversation, i fell asleep. I was woken up when i felt my body being put down and a seat belt strapped around me.I went back to sleep, and slept all through the ride home. When i woke up next i was in Alex's arms in the elevator being carried. "Where am I?" i asked drowsily as i rubbed my sleep filled eyes. "We are almost home," he said tensely. For the first time he didn't seem smug or playful or seductive at all. I looked up at him smiling, "Why the long face, you will get wrinkles in that handsome face of yours. Be happy." i said as i touched his soft cheeks. "God! Are you always this soft?" "Maya, i haven't even been gone a week and you are already in trouble." he said with the same serious tone he had used before only this time a little softer. "Am not in trouble," i said making gestures with my hands. "I was just trying to live, have some fun. Did someone say am in trouble?
The next morning arrived with a slight throbbing at the back of my skull that mocked me for having one too many glasses of wine. My head was literally killing me with a serious headache, i tried opening my eyes but it was too painful, so i decided to sleep a little longer. I pulled my bed covers over my head but a second later someone took them all off."Leave me alone please ," i said trying to open my eyes as the breeze hit my body. "I am never drinking again." i say"Everyone says that the next morning after a wild night out." Alex replied subtly"Drink this," i opened my eyes and Alex was standing in front of me. Last night is a little fuzzy, it then start coming back to me, Maya had called him to come pick me up right after he landed. Then i start remembering everything i said to him when he was getting me to bed, oh my goodness. "What's this?" i ask taking the cup from him trying to push everything i remembered back into my mind. "The best hangover cure known to man kind." he
"Necklace or no necklace?" i ask Olivia who is still doing her own make up. She walked over to still in her black dress and bare feeted. Her make up wasnt done yet but she looked absolutely stunning."Hmmm," her head tilted to the side as she studied me. "Hold it up again."I lifted the choker of gold coins to my throat. The dress she had picked up for me was fire red. It hang on one shoulder, cut diagonally across my cleavage, had ruching to the hip, and then split at my right upper thigh all the way down to my leg. There was no back to speak of, aside from a slender strip of rhinestones that connected one side to the other to keep the front from falling off.Otherwise, the back was bared to just above the crack of my butt in a racy v cut."Forget the necklace," she said, "I was leaning towards gold stud earrings, but nowam thinkibg diamond hoops, you already have so much happening in your neck so we don't want to over accessorize.""Really?" I frowned watching her in the mirror as s
It was a little bit chilly out, but i needed the fresh air. I needed something else to occupy my mind to avoid my anxiety from kicking in. I didn't want to leave the gala without saying hello to my parents, i also wanted to give Olivia some time to mingle before we left.But i was in no shape to go back in there, i needed to be as far away from Alex and his bimbo, so if i have to stay out here freeze to death that's exactly what i was going to do."There you are." a familiar voice said behind me, I turned to see Alex standing in the doorway and my heart skipped a beat again. I was happy to see him but also furious at him. I had no idea which feeling felt more worse.Alex walked up to me, "What are you doing here Maya?"His voice sounded calm, but i could feel tension in his body. We were only a foot apart and i was finding it difficult to breathe."Do you have a problem with me being here?" i asked timidly."Yes, i specifically told you to stay home." he said immediately sounding furi
Alex moved down my dress, and pushed it up around my thighs as he moved me into a straddle position. The kiss went from hard and urgent to slow and savory.With his arms crossed under my butt i wrapped my legs around him as he lifted me up and stood up heading for the bed.I am running my fingers through his hair, as he kisses my neck and earlobes, when he looks up at me, "Maya, you just might be the best thing that has ever happened to me." he whispers to me in the most sincere tone. Those words wrap around me like a warm blanket, i don't know what to say in response. He lifts up a hand and gently cups my cheek, and i feel his stare dep in my stomach. Slowly he leans forward and presses his lips to mine, i expect a peck but he doesn't pull back. The tip of his tongue slides across my lips, parting them softly. His mouth is so warm i moan as his kiss grows deeper. He rolls me into my backand then drags his hand down mu thighs, he pushes against me and a surge of heat shoots me. I gra
As soon as we got back to Olivia's house, I got out of the fitted gown. Big crowds and parties really sucked the life out of me. Plus the whole Alex thing bumped me out, i just wanted to be in comfortable clothes eating ice cream and sulking in peace."Hey, how are you feeling?" Olivia asks ash she comes up with two glasses of wine and a bottle of wine. "I have feeling you really need this today." she says giving me the bottle."Am working on it, i just need some space from him you know, I just don't get it, one moment he is all lovey dovey the next he is with some other hot woman." i say opening the bottle. I take a large gulp straight from the bottle before i pour into both of our glasses." Am his wife, you know. Even if it's just a contract he shouldn't treat me like this. " i can feel tears welling up." It's okay babe, you can stay here with me, until you are ready to face him." Olivia says hugging me."Really?" i ask with tears falling down my face."Ofcourse, you are my best fr
"I have already given you enough time to adapt Maya, from now you will be sleeping in my bed."My body was excited but my brain was too slow at processing to send out signals to my mouth to respond. I contemplated refusing and fighting him on this, but my mind and body were too tired, i couldn't and i knew he won't hear any of it. So i just got up and picked up my phone before heading out to his room, with him behind me. I could sense the tension between us, but mostly from me, I was furious at him. I sat on his bed as he walked towards the bathroom, he came back a minute later with nothing on but a pair of loose pants, his chest and shoulders bare, to say i was left breathless would be an understatement. He looked at me like he was going to tear me apart, and i avoided his gaze. I immediately got under the covers and laid on my side, my back facing his side of the bed. I tried to close my eyes but i couldn't get any sleep, i just lay there in anticipation as my body tensed up. How
