Iris POV I was clinging to Arthur's back despite how angry I was inside for always thinking otherwise.His voice had been cold when he asked that question earlier and it wasn't in the same cold way that he spoke to me most of the time, there was something that was different about the way he spoke, it sounded so deep and severe filled with spikes and hatred for whoever he was speaking to. If a gun had been planted in his hand he would have buried two bullets in the person's head without any hesitation at all.The tension in the room became so thick that a knife would have difficulty cutting through it. "Come on now Arthur don't be like that, I came all the way here to visit you…" "If I am going to be having any discussion concerning the business with anybody it is going to be either your father or your older sister but not you, So leave…" Arthur said shouting. So she was a business partner? I wondered…but why was he speaking to her so harshly? When they just had an intimate mome
Arthur’s POV.My feet's firm on the floor as I stood just a few inches away from Iris. I watched her trying to move away from my presence without having to fall or push anything off.One thing I admired about her was how smart and observant she was even in her state of blindness. She knew the hotel room in which she stayed was decorated with a lot of breakable objects.I couldn't help but move closer to her, I was pretty sure she noticed my warm breath on her forehead.Before I could even comprehend what was going on with me, I bent, adjusting to her height as I devoured her upper lips with my right hand teasing her face and my left hand firm on her waist.She moaned making me know she loved what I was doing.I proceeded to suck on her lower lips this time and then continued intangibly.It was becoming more intense than usual, realizing what I was doing I released her lips from mine as I watched her eyes widen in shock and her lips agape.“Arthur…” She muttered, still trying to let th
Arthur’s POV.Now, in the walls of my room, I stood with all my today's activities recalling in my head; The weird, unexplainable, and compromised ones most especially.I remembered the kiss I shared with Iris for some sort of reason I couldn't explain, the sharp pleasure I felt for a second before I returned to my goddamn senses, realizing that I had kissed my supposed enemy, Sabastian Scott’s daughter, Iris.I didn't give a hoot was all I knew. A kiss could mean anything. Not to leave out, the life I took. That big mouthed freak.Oh, I hate the sight of blood and the stuttering sound of a gunshot. Or even having to see someone fall and never get up again but nobody knew about this except my sister.It wasn't my fault In any manner, it could at least been avoided by that foolish snitch.A deep sigh of tiredness and relief was what I let out after this series of flashbacks. A sight of relief for at least sorting out the issue of the snitch and the trucker driver with the police.My t
Iris My head positioned on the pillow with my eyes opened slightly as I just woke up from my slumber. I noticed I was not feeling Arthur’s lumberjack body behind me. I turned around in order to try to see if he was probably laid on the other side of the bee but that went to waste because after my numerous search with my hands I realized he was not on the head any longer. Maybe he was in the bathroom or admiring the early morning raise just like I did before I lost my sight and so I decided to call out his name. “Arthur!” I called but no response still. As I sat upright on the bed wondering about the whereabouts I heard a knock on the door and felt relaxed. It was probably Arthur who came back but responded, telling the person to come in, I soon realize it was a maid. “Good morning ma.” She greeted politely. She went further to say why she was now within the walls of my hotel room. She explained Arthur had directed her to ensure I was ready by 12:00pm so we could return back to
Arthur’s POV.“This asshole!” I cursed from a distance as soon as I realized Kelvin had my phone with him and more annoyingly he was on a call to only goodness knows who.I rapidly rushed to where he was and pulled my phone away from his ear. “What are you doing? Who are you speaking to?” I bombarded him with numerous questions.“Chills man,” Kelvin responded.I felt relaxed hearing this, it meant it was not an important business partner so it could only be a friend of ours who called. Still, I was determined to see who was on the call and so I brought my phone close to me.Soon, I realized it was Iris.“What the freaking hell!” I exclaimed.“Why was Kelvin talking to her, did they know themselves from somewhere?” I soliloquized.Soon, I ranted out on the phone. “Why are you speaking to my friend, huh?” I questioned rudely.“None of your goddamn business Arthur. At least I spoke to someone who is well-mannered. I just hope you don't inculcate your traits in him.” She articulated. I co
Iris POVAfter my call with Arthur, I was relieved and relaxed for some reasons I could not comprehend even to myself but I found myself giggling inwardly.I became on usually excited to see Arthur but I still had to keep myself busy until his return.After numerous thoughts concerning what a blind person like me could do, I decided to ask the maids to walk me around the mansion at least for a while.They complied saying it was still safe since I was going to be by thier side at all time.One the maid, politely instructed me to take a seat for a while that she had to get guards to come along with us before I could even leave the house.Was this a chaarade? What was all these protection for? Even when I was supposed to be within the walls of the Mansion’s compound.Few minutes later, the maid came back and I could smell the aroma of different people. I couldn’t help but compliment their taste of perfumes.Politely and respectfully, they thanked me.The maid helped me and made sure I di
Arthur’s POV.My right hand was on the knob of my room door as I twisted it and as well shut the door. I just escaped Iris’s questions because I had no answer to them but there was no way she was going to let me go without me answering her. Well, I found a way out of ignoring it.Lately I’ve not been concentrating on my work and searching for Sebastian.I can’t wait to get my hands on him, I am going to make him suffer and pay for all the pain he has caused me.The only problem was that I didn’t know what to do with Iris, this is the first time I’ve hesitated to torture someone.Maybe it was because, she was blind.Soon my thoughts were interrupted by the buzzing sound of my phone. My right hand immediately proceeded to slide into my pocket as I tried to locate the phone, soon I had the phone in my possession.I faced it to my face as I soon saw the person who had called me. It was my younger sister, Anna.“What did she want from me this time?” I questioned myself.It’s been long we
Iris POV I was surprised at Arthur’s silence. Well, to be sincere I did not anticipate anything different after what he had done in my room a few hours ago but at least. “Was it maybe because of what I said earlier?” I interrogated myself trying to figure out what exactly I had done or what offense I had committed. One minute he is friendly, the other minute he's strict. He was confusing me and the worsen i couldn't even detect his face to know if he was angry. I proceeded to recall all I uttered to him. Was it because I asked him if he was jealous? It can not be. Why would he be mad at me because of that? No, and so I shook that thought off. Still in the pool of my memories, trying to recall what I did or said to have caused him to behave this rule towards me. I even tried to put myself in his shoes, I tried to be Arthur so I could maybe comprehend what I had done but still to no avail. Soon, I concluded that Arthur was a different person entirely and I could just put an end
