Laura's POV "What other reason could there be?" I asked. He didn't say anything. What other reason was he expecting? Wait, was he expecting me to say I was traveling with him because I wanted to be around him and couldn't bear the thought of staying far apart? Or maybe that I loved him so much and wanted to be wherever he was? If that was what he wanted to hear, then he needed to think again. I looked outside the window, at the surrounding bushes we passed. The environment was so serene and calm. A few moments later, we arrived at the airport. "Did you already book our flights?" I asked Nicholas. I had completely forgotten that flights needed to be booked for our journey to Italy. I would imagine someone like him would want to get first-class tickets. He wouldn't want to stay in economy class or even business class. I smiled at the thought. He was actually very influential, powerful, and wealthy. So it was a no-brainer. He looked at me, a surprised look on his face. "Uhhhm, why wou
Nicholas' POV I looked back at her with desire-filled eyes. She held the curtains in her hands and looked down in shock at the sight before her. I didn't care; I couldn't afford to care at that point. Her presence had not changed anything for me; I was still engrossed in the act. Frustrated, she stormed out of the scene. I eventually released into the flight attendant's mouth, and she seemed to enjoy it. She wiped her mouth and stood up while I went to the bathroom to clean up. I always made sure she got paid handsomely and was well taken care of. Thoughts of Laura suddenly flooded my mind. Why did she come in when she did? Why did she have to see me in the act? I thought furiously and returned to my seat. Laura's POV I heard moans coming from the back. "No, it can't be!" I thought. Nicholas can't be having sex on board. Was he pleasuring himself? He is the only one capable of moaning like that here. Any other person would probably get thrown out of the moving jet for doing that w
Laura's POV He motioned for me to walk before him. I didn't want to obey him, but I didn't want to start an argument, so I just did as I was told. I got down from the jet and looked around; we were at an airport. I saw a convoy of three cars with a black limousine in the middle. Bodyguards surrounded the cars. I didn't need to be told; they were all Nicholas' men. They were there to take their boss home. I did a head count of the men, and there were about twelve of them. They greeted Nicholas as we got close and opened the door. Nicholas let me go in before him, and when he got in, the car was shut. He glanced over at me, and I held his gaze for a few seconds before looking away. I went farther away from him to the other side of the car and looked out the window. He pulled me back close to him slowly. I didn't resist, but I didn't look at him either. "What's wrong, Laura?" he asked with a concerned voice. Typical of him to ask me what was wrong when he knew the exact answer to that
Laura's POVI glanced at the caller ID and saw it was Sonia, my best friend. It brought a smile to my face as I hadn't spoken to her since yesterday when I told her I would be staying at her apartment in London. She had given me all the necessary information to make my stay comfortable. I picked up the phone, settled myself comfortably on the bed, and answered."Hello, babes, how are you?" I asked."I'm fine, babe. I was just checking to see if you've settled into my apartment already," she said. I could hear her mother's voice in the background, probably nagging her about something. I recalled my own relationship with my mum and how it could be similarly amusing. Sonia mumbled something to her mum and moved away until her mum's voice was no longer audible."Is your mum giving you a hard time?" I inquired."Oh, in so many different ways I can't even start explaining right now, babe," she replied with a hint of annoyance. "Isn't she supposed to be helping me get over the death of my bo
I already had a good guess as to who it would be. Who else but the boss of the house himself? I opened the door and to my surprise, he wasn't the one. A tall, slender, beautiful lady stood before me."Hi, Madam. Mr. Nicholas asked me to check on you," she said."Oh really? Where is he?" I asked."He is downstairs, ma'am, waiting for you," she replied with a smile. Judging from her clothes, I could tell she was one of the housekeepers. She looked so beautiful it made me jealous. Nicholas obviously did this on purpose, hiring these beautiful girls to come work in his mansion."Okay, tell him I'll be with him in a minute." She nodded and left. As soon as I shut the door, I went straight to the beautifully furnished cushion in my room and sat down. I had wanted to go downstairs before the housekeeper came, but now I would wait for an extra ten minutes before going down. I didn't want Nicholas thinking I came as soon as he called. Petty, right? Yeah, but I don't mind.After I was sure ten
Laura's POV: "I think you misunderstood me even before I had been given the chance, Laura," he said calmly. "I thought you…" "Well, you thought wrong," he interjected firmly. "How would you even think I would refuse Sonia, your friend, from coming over?" He scoffed and said, "It appears that after the weeks we have spent together, you still know nothing about me." He threw his hands in the air in disbelief. I wondered why he was making a fuss all because of a statement I made. I didn't know anything about him? Is he kidding me right now? Of course, I know a lot of things about him, especially how he loved fucking different women without giving a hoot what any of them thinks. I also happen to know how risky his world is. The world of the mafians, filled with wars and blood spillage. One could literally be alive today and dead tomorrow in his world. Human life is not regarded at all. The taking of too many hard drugs has hardened their minds, making them see humans as animals. I re
Nicholas POVI entered my room feeling incredibly frustrated and angry. Why did Laura have to say what she said? After everything I have done for her, how could she insinuate that I didn't want Sonia, her friend, to come over? Is that how petty she really thought I was? A whole me, Nicholas Brandson, with everything I have, bothered by having her friend spend time with her?Women! So typical of them. You do everything you can to please them, and they take you for granted whenever they want.Despite still being hungry, I left the dining table in anger. Argh, Laura! What would I ever do with you? Look how petty you made me act!I took out my phone from my side pocket and dialed Abraham's number. He picked up almost immediately. Somewhat embarrassed about what I was going to ask of him, I cleared my throat."Abraham, I need you to listen carefully," I said."Yes, boss," he said with a hint of mockery in his voice. He usually doesn't call me boss; whenever he did, it was either to tease o
Nicholas's POV:We both looked towards the door simultaneously. I already knew what to expect and who it was, but she didn't.She looked at me, expecting me to ask whoever it was to come in. What I was avoiding was about to unfold right in front of me. This was all her fault; if only she had left when I asked her to instead of barging in the way she did.Before I could stand up to ask whoever brought the food to take it back, Laura was already at the door. She opened it and upon seeing who it was, she looked over at me in surprise."You asked for food?" she asked.I rolled my eyes and lay back on my bed, "Of course, I asked for food. That wouldn't have happened if someone had let me eat in peace," I snapped, realizing as soon as the words left my mouth that I was acting like a 6-year-old, and that was all Laura's doing. She had been making me tap into the younger version of myself trapped somewhere within me."I already apologized about that, and if you were really hungry, you shouldn
