April stood in his garden taking deep breaths and clenching a file tightly in her hand. There was a tight feeling in her chest but no matter what, she was going to get what she wanted. He soon appeared managing to take her breath away the moment his eyes connected with hers. Her heart gave a wild thump in her chest and then fear crept in sending chills down her back. What If he left her? Would she be able to love anyone else again? There was a guarded look in his eyes but there was also that dark look of desire that made her blood tingle in her veins and desire to pool low and deadly. She wanted to do wicked things to him, with him."April..." He called and his voice was enough to make the ache and the pleasure grow deeper. Was this what they meant by saying love was both pain and pleasure. She wondered which came first.She stopped him holding up her hand."Before you speak another word I will speak first Enrique Alvaro," she said with finality and he nodded slowly watching her so i
The days that followed were a flurry of different activities. They gave a press conference and went to court as the case progressed. Jasmin looked like a deranged person and kept casting evil glances at her throughout the trial. She didn't look like she was sorry at all for the crime she had committed. Well, she was going to end up in jail or an asylum so April didn't bother much.Kyle looked terrible, physically. He was wearing casts on his hands and legs. April remembered how hard he had hit her and decided that he deserved every hit Enrique dealt him. She wanted to add a few of her own if a chance presented itself. Brian couldn't look at her in court and Mr. Adams apologized profusely on his behalf. She couldn't blame their father tho. Sometimes no matter how much parents tried to raise their children right, they most certainly always chose the wrong path.He would be getting a light sentence compared to Jasmin and Kyle tho.April loved the judge on the case and the prosecutor. Th
April stepped into her office with Katherine her friend hot on her trail. It felt like dark clouds hovered over her head, threatening to spill if she so much as blinked. Her office was dark-themed and most time she felt it reflected how her life was, but she was happy and that was what counted right?. She hoped that was enough.She slumped into her seat, behind her desk and kat took hers looking pissed. She acted like she had committed a grave scandal for supposedly ruining the blind date she had set up, never minding the subtle warning given before the said date that it might not end well. "Why did you bother to go on a date with him anyway? If you knew you were going to embarrass him like that, you should have just told me no. You keep making me look bad in the face of all my male friends" she says simmering like she had been humiliated for the rest of her life." First off kat" April got out on a suffering breath, holding her friend's gaze, and praying for the grace to stay cool.
April's POVWork is never-ending, and if you so much as take a break, you'll meet more problems waiting for you to solve. This should be added into the wise saying book, if such a thing exists, cause, why not.I stared at all the paperwork in front of me, wishing that they'll all just vanish away when Zerah, my assistant stepped into my office. I am certain that there is an aura of excitement bubbling all around him. "You look stressed April, but I believe I have just the news to make your mode lighten up". He announces, smiling. I peer up at him, still worried out of my mind but a bit optimistic. Finally, something should turn outright today. Everything has been so hard lately and I just couldn't catch a break.He drops two invitations on my desk and I look at them. I am indeed surprised. I want to jump out of my seat and make fist bumps into the air, but I don't, at least not when Zerah is still standing in my office."You found Adam kings?" I ask unbelievably "that man is like a
The suite was expensive-looking. April sat on the soft four-poster bed, as she tried her best to focus on work before she prepared for the evening party.She was going to dazzle everyone, and command attention like she always had done. A confident woman was sure to get the deal.April woke up with a start as she heard the knock on her door. She guessed she must have been really tired to just fall asleep while working. At least she had managed to forget the handsome hunk from earlier. Well, maybe she didn't since she was mentioning him again.She walked up to the door as her head cleared. She needed her coffee. She unlocked the door and it was Zerah. He was all dressed up and he looked handsome. She had never seen him in a suit."Wow," she gaped " you're taking the stealing the show tactics a tad too far, don't you think" she joked and he laughed." Well since am your escort, I wouldn't want to look like a farmer next to a queen" he mumbled lowly like he was shy to look her in the face
ENRIQUE POVI walked up to the rooftop and it was worth it. The view was breathtaking-you could practically see the whole city in an array of colors. There was a huge swimming pool at the edge of the rooftop. Everything about the hotel screamed luxury.I had to get a breath of fresh air and come back to my equilibrium. It was like the lady April was everywhere. She made her presence known with just a simple word, touch, or gesture, heck, Adam king seemed to be in her trance all night long and so was I. I was so hard in my pants, I felt uncomfortable. What was it about this woman anyway?.I hear footsteps climb up the stair that leads to the rooftop. I hide in the shadows because I needed this little time for myself to think. The contract wasn't going to be mine and there was only one person to blame for that.It was her again. She walks towards the edge of the roof smiling happily, looking breathtaking with all the lights reflecting around her. She did a little twirl and I didn't know
April finished dressing up and further building up her walls. The madness about Enrique Alvaro had to stop. He was just a man like every other man, she reasoned with herself for the hundredth time.She took a deep breath and parked her hair back holding it up with a hairband. She stood and admired herself in front of the standing mirror."You're successful, beautiful and you're the boss. They thought you couldn't do it and you proved them all wrong" she said as she stared at herself far longer than necessary and suddenly felt sad that her father wasn't around anymore. She loved him so much and he just left her. So did her mother. All because of love. Why? wasn't she worth loving?.She shook her head to clear off the offending thought. She couldn't start her day on such a bad note. She stepped out of her suite and came face to face with Brian who was holding roses. She hated roses."Wow, you look even more beautiful this morning" he complimented her and she gave a polite smile. There
APRIL POVI woke up feeling better than I had ever felt before. I wonder if it was because of that kiss. I could not get it out of my mind and my lips kept tingling in remembrance."I don't care what all this is. This is all about sexual attraction and I am pretty sure I can resist a foul-mouthed man like Enrique" I pepped talk myself for the millionth time since yesterday.I was fucking not like this. I never think about a guy way too long like this.No wonder women were crazy about him. That man kissed like there was no tomorrow. He wasn't my first kiss tho.I sometimes kiss random guys just to prove a point that I wasn't scared to be intimate like most of them thought. I could do whatever I goddamn, please.I have never really gotten intimate sexually tho because I think I am so messed up. Sex could lead to love. It is a risk I am not willing to take. There was also the incident that happened in my past which I don't like to think or talk about.I had always wanted my mom's attenti
