Third person’s POV The school was abuzz with the news of Sasha dumping her drink on Leela, of course stuff like that happened almost every day but, but what made this one scandalously different was because Sasha had been seated with Alexa, and Leela was Alexa’s husband’s ex’s younger sister! It was crazy and it was all everyone could talk about. Alexa had been right to be unsettled about the situation because she was sent an email that her attention was needed at Micheal’s office immediately she was done with the class she was in. Her heart had pounded so very heavily as she made her way to the office; it was bad enough that she hadn’t been to the office in forever and it would feel awkward being there all of a sudden, and the fact that she was being formally summoned didn’t make matters any easier. She pulled on the best smile she could on getting to his secretary’s desk, the beautiful brunette lady smiled at her warmly on seeing her.“Hello Alexa, it’s been a while I saw you
Third person’s POV A slight frown creased Calan’s temple as he digested what Micheal had told him. Once again, they stood in the parking lot while Calan waited for Alexa who had no idea he was here. Micheal had called him earlier saying he had something to tell him and he had decided to stop by. Both men stood conversing about the matter at hand, and to say Calan was displeased would be an understatement.“I don’t remember Leela to be quite the brat”. He said as he thought back to the young and shy girl he remembered her to be.“Unfortunate, she grew up to be a brat”. Micheal said as he leaned back against his car. “A brat who could have easily bullied your wife had her friend not stood up for her”. He was probably adding fuel to the fire but he truly didn’t care, not when Alexa was involved.Calan’s eyes darkened considerably as he thought about it; the fact that Alexa had told him nothing of it was what upset him even more.“So Layla called to tell you that Alexa and her friends h
Alexa’s POVMy heart pounded heavily as sat there fiddling with the smooth fabric of my silk blouse, I found myself being extremely anxious about the talk we were going to have when we got home. And the fact that he was actually upset made me even more anxious, we had had several talks, yes, but he had never been upset, however, at the moment his jaw was clenched and his brows were creased ever so slightly.“Don’t be mad at me….”. I said quietly, so quietly that I thought he wouldn’t hear me. He inclined his head to face me briefly before returning his gaze to the road ahead. “I’m not mad at you”. He said.“You are”. I said quietly. He shook his head.“I’m just upset at the fact that I had to receive a call from Micheal informing me that you and your friends had a misunderstanding with Layla’s younger sister”. He said.“I didn’t want to have a misunderstanding with her…..”. I tried to explain.“I don’t care about the misunderstanding; I just care about the fact that I didn’t hear
Third person’s POV He had a lot on his mind, there was so much he wanted to say, yet he found he couldn’t say them without confusing himself more, without making the situation irrefutably awkward. He wanted to talk about the fact that she never laughed when she was around him yet she so easily laughed with that boy earlier, he wanted to tell her that he was very much willing to severe his ties with Layla just so she would be okay. But why? Why was he so bothered by it all? Why was he so upset? He stared down at her, stared down at her face, her slightly parted lips an unintentional invite on her part. His gaze returned to her teary eyes momentarily before he found himself leaning in and capturing her lips in a fierce kiss. He poured out all the frustration within, poured out all the confusion, poured out everything. He kissed her with so much possessiveness that he never wanted to let go of her at the moment, he kissed her until she was breathless and panting. And when he fina
Alexa’s POV ‘Honestly, I’d like you to get on my lap’. His words hung deeply between us, I sat there breathing heavily as I tried my possible best to muster up the courage and confidence to actually get out of my seat and get on his lap. I swallowed and forced the lump that had formed in my throat down, all the while I continued to clench my thighs to put some much needed pressure ‘there’. ‘Come on, Alexa, you can do this’. I said to myself. ‘You can do this’. I dragged in a deep and shuddering breath before slowly pushing my seat back and getting on my feet. I could feel his gaze on me as he watched my every mood, and knowing that he was watching me only made me for nervous, made me more…shy. I inched closer to him and I was glad that he put me out of my misery by taking my wrist and gently guiding me to straddle his lap. I kept my head down and focused my gaze on the dark buttons of his shirt, on the pale skin of his chest peeking out of the undone buttons; I loved how his s
Third person’s POV The day was going rather slowly and agonizingly for Calan; he had woken up this morning feeling rather shitty but he had pulled himself together and acted like all was fine because Alexa had been by his side, he hadn’t wanted to worry her in anyway, plus, he hadn’t thought it was serious. He had simply been dizzy and nauseous, his head ached and his chest felt unnaturally heavy.“Why don’t you go ahead and get ready for classes?”. He said to Alexa. He had wanted her to leave him as soon as possible just in case things went south. And when he had been left alone he had laid still for a while hoping the dizziness would subside, it had worked, and he was glad. He had pulled himself together, showered and gotten set for work, he had even tried to have breakfast with Alexa but the nausea just wouldn’t let him be.“You’re not eating”. Alexa had pointed out. And he had told her that he wasn’t hungry. It was only when she reminded him that he had barely eaten his dinne
Third person’s POV Alexa was glad she didn’t have to go through the stress of showing her ID or explaining that she wanted to see Calan and all, and the fact that Micheal was with her made things even easier. She had dialed Calan’s number again when they were in the elevator but he hadn’t answered and she had become even more anxious.“He’s not answering”. She said to Micheal.“It’s fine, we’re here after all”. He told her. They stepped out of the elevator when it came to a halt and headed to Rita’s desk at once.“Good day Sir, Ma’am”. She greeted. And Alexa could see the coldness in those eyes of hers as her gaze settled on her momentarily.“Is Calan in?”. Micheal asked her.“Yes, Mr. Grant is in but he doesn’t want any visitors at the moment”. She replied. “I’m afraid you’ll have to come back another time”.Alexa felt bile rise to her throat and she glared daggers at her.“Do we look like visitors you?”. She asked her.“I’m sorry Ma’am, I’m just following orders”. She said unapo
Third person’s POV Calan’s eyes fluttered open slowly, and for a moment everything seemed blurry as he lay there staring above. His mind was blank….or perhaps his thoughts were just too jumbled, or hazy? He dragged in a deep breath and blinked a couple of times to clear his vision.“Hey”. Micheal’s voice from beside him was all it took to pull his thoughts together. Micheal and Alexa had been here, Alexa….. He hadn’t wanted her to see him as he was, it had shattered him to have to watch her cry while being unable to do anything about it. He blinked once more and his vision finally became clear, he found Micheal where he had been earlier, and he would have thought he hadn’t left if he hadn’t noticed his jacket was off as was his tie.“Feeling better?”. He asked him. And he nodded. He cleared his throat quietly because he didn’t trust how his voice would sound.“How long has it been?”. He asked him.Micheal glanced at his wristwatch.“Four hours”. He replied.“Where’s Alexa?”. He a
