Spade Chapter 34
With the thoughts of his previous conversation with Nate in mind, Matteo steps out of the elevator on the top floor and walks towards the penthouse door, it's the only apartment on the last floorHe used his key card, swiping it through the door and it clicked open, he strolled inside, the huge living room, looking pitch black, since he's just coming from outside his eyes aren't adjusted to the darkness yetIt takes a while before his eyes adjust to the room's darkness, without turning on the lights he just walks towards the kitchen on the left hand side of the room, there's no divider between his kitchen and the living room, just a huge counter in front of the kitchen, separating the kitchen from the living room.He walks around the counter, reaching for the top cupboard, he open it and pulls out a glass and fills it up with water before drinking it.From his peripheral he sees a figure in the dark shadows, suddenly making his whole body tense and at alert.He slowly pulled the cup a

He groaned as he tried to raise his head up, it felt very heavy as he could barely lift it on his own.His vision was hazy, everything looked and felt foggy like a huge cloud of dust and fog was covering his eyes.His head kept lolling back and forth as he tried to keep it steady, the whole room was spinning, as if he was sitting on a ferris wheel and someone was pushing him, but this felt much more intense and worse, his head was heavy and light at the same time.He kept narrowing and squinting his eyes trying to make out the silhouette in front of him but it was of no use because the more he tried, the more the image blurred and looked thin like a stripper's dancing pole.He groaned and let his head fall forward, trying to move his hand up and rub his eyes, he couldn't, they felt like they'd been restrained, and they stung around the wrist area.He shut his eyes countless times, blinking hard, before his vision started to clear and he could see white around his wrist, tho it still l

She followed skeptically and almost fearfully as he took long and powerful strides away from the busy and loud dancefloor, straight towards his office, her eyes trailed his perfectly chiseled, squared and broad shoulders as he walked in front of her.Every nerve cell in her body was ringing with alert as she racked her brain trying to think of why Spade would come and call her off work, surely she hadn't done anything wrong, but you can never tell with Spade.He was like an undecisive weather, one minute hot and the next very cold, confusing everyone around him, the best she could do was follow right behind him like a lost puppy as he led her towards his office.They both stopped in front of his office and he unlocked the door before walking in and she gently and stealthly followed behind him.Her heart was beating extremely fast in her chest, even though she'd been working here for over 3 years now, she still hasn't gotten around the fear she feels whenever she was around him.The fa

Spade could already feel his heartbeat getting faster and louder and his hands were beginning to twitch on his side, he quickly fisted both of them and clenched his jaw, his eyes never leaving Nate.At a time like this he really wished he hadn't mastered the art of looking someone dead in the eyes without blinking or looking away, because right now he so badly wanted to look away from Nate, anything to make his attention and eyes shift from Nate, he'd gladly take it, but he couldn't.And Nate was looking at him with the same intensity, his brown orbs swirling with uncertainty as always and his lips slightly parting as he gasped out upon seeing Spade.The whole room had suddenly gone quiet, it was as if no one else was present, just the two of them as they both stared at each other, with different thoughts in their head.Nate was the first to look away, as he looked around the room nervously, willing himself not to look at Spade again, because this time, he might not have the will powe
Spade Chapter 38
As Spade's car drove away from the hotel, Nate couldn't help but steal glances at the man beside him, his mind traveling far with so many thoughts running through it.His eyes moved from his face to his knuckles that were already turning white due to the grip he had on the steering wheel, Nate's eyes counted the rings that adorned his knuckles, not too much but enough to be noticed.They were all gold and expensive.His eyes moved from Spade's hands to his face, his beard covered jaw that he was clenching so hard, Nate actually felt sorry for his teeth, the way his eyes narrowed at the road, as if he was actually glaring at the road, was there ever a time when Spade wasn't glaring?His tongue ran through his lips as he watched every single detail of Spade's face, and he wasn't really subtle about it but he barely even cared.Spade's beard didn't look rough but Nate could tell he hardly ever shaved it, maybe a little trim here and there but that was just about it.Then slowly but surel

Spade was watching as each men played their cards, some played well and others really didn't have much luck with cards, the bystanders around the table were either cheering or making disappointing sounds at who was losing or winning.His eyes left the table as they landed on the young man beside him, who was keenly watching the game with all his rapt attention, as if his whole life depended on it.He could see the amusement and curiosity in Nate's eyes as he watched the game unfold, like he was seeing this for the first time, he looked like a kid that was seeing a funfair for the very first time, the way his eyes lit up everytime the employee tossed the dice and the way his eyes moved from one player to another, watching their reaction.Spade wasn't at all interested in the game, what interested him at the moment was the reaction of the young man beside him, the way he reacted to how everything unfolded, that was more than a sight for Spade, even more interesting than the game itself
Spade Chapter 40
Nate slowly picked up the cards from the table, with his heart held in his throat, he could literally feel the beating of his heart, it felt as if it would explode all over the table, staining Spade and the man in front of him with blood.He held his breath as he peeled open his eyes and looked at the five cards with him, even with how anxious and scared he was, he still couldn't understand a thing about the cards he was holding, he couldn't tell if he had the right cards or his luck had run out and he lost Spade's ten million dollars.With his breath still held, he watched the other man raise his cards too and look at it, his face was still slightly pulled up in a smile, so it was hard for Nate to ascertain if he'd won or if he had lost.He just watched the man, his eyes moving between the man and the cards in his hands, the man's eyes moved up and with that smile on his face, his eyes darted from Spade to Nate before he looked back at his cards and let out a full grin.He was the fi
Spade Chapter 41
Spade sat still in his car trying to process what he'd just heard and what had just happened a few seconds ago, he is supposed to be angry at Nate's outburst and somewhat disrespected but he was more turned on than he was angry.He was actually angry but the feeling of heat rushing towards his groin was more prominent than the anger.He could still the anger on Nate's face as he talked to him, letting him know exactly what he thought of him.Was he self absorbed? Yes, was he selfish? Yes But what he did today, going out of his way and taking Nate to the casino, and even letting him play freely, that wasn't an act of selfishness, he didn't do that for himself, he did for Nate and that was a first.He'd never gone out of his way to do something nice for someone else, not even Matteo, okay maybe once for Matteo, but that was it.He sighed out and ran his hands down his face, he felt like his mind was in so many places at once, he was thinking of what happened between Nate and him a few
