47. Remy in Dreamland
It was almost one week later when Ghazi surprised me with beach-themed bags of clothes. Robyn was hand-delivering them with a big grin on her face. "It's my excuse to get out of the office and meet you, though I know Ghazi had your measurement on point." We shook hands after she let herself in as if she had done many times before me.
"Zal told me that the boss man had you move in days ago. Thank you! He's much more bearable now in the office. So, Remy, are you excited about Capri?"
"Uh ...what?"
"Oh...crap, I just ruined the surprise didn't I?"
I tried to not upset her by telling her that I'd keep quiet. "I can keep a secret or two you know.'
"Ohhh...I know I'm going to like you. You and I will go a long way, Remy. You have my number. Let me know if I can be of use to you." She winked. Yeah, her number kind of slid into my contact list the day she called me to take care of my passport for our last trip to the wine country. I never knew people can m

Days after Zal visited my apartment, Dion had been quiet. He had questioned me about him and I had given him a simple answer that he was my ex's assistant. I know Zal was more than an assistant to Ghazi, with the kind of shady business his family was in, I was sure that Zal was his right-hand man. He was probably the one who did Ghazi's dirty work, or as Zal had said he was security.Things between Dion and I couldn't be more awkward. He would watch me at the office, subtly yet noticeable in my eyes. Days were long until I was back at mine before he'd text telling me he was downstairs and I let him up. We'd had sex then he left to sleep at his."So, any news from your ex again? what's his name? you never tell me anything about him.""No, because there's nothing to talk about. He was my ex, told me he loves me then leaves me once things get boring." I shrugged trying to paint an easy breakup while things with Ghazi were far from easy. The man was my f
The Professional Bed Warmer 49. Ghazi reunited
Since we were back from Capri Remy was looking a bit lost, probably 'cause he was still making himself home at mine. He was also still struggling after having to quit his work as a bartender, seeing that the commute was ridiculous. Lately, he has been working on his designs. I helped him set up a room for his working space. But still, I know I wanted him to be happy and I was confident that he was going to like the new working space that I had secretly prepared for him. I just need to get him there and let him see it.Mornings with Remy have been a bundle of happy surprises. I was feeling a lot since our trip to Italy. Love is on the tip of my tongue that morning when I watch him sleeping peacefully, naked in my bed. My hand caresses his arm and his eyes slowly open and his lazy smile plastered on his gorgeous face. "Good Morning.""Mhmm...a very good morning to you too." He snuggled closer to my half-naked body and inhaled my scent like he always does every damn morni
The Professional Bed Warmer 50. Remy was Overwhelmed
"Hey, how's work?" I greeted him the moment he stepped into the apartment. Ghazi looked tired. I regret that I was dressed to go out, I didn't want to make him feel obligated to take me out just because he told me he was going to. The man works too hard."I'm good...are you ready for your surprise?" He asked, smiling before pulling me in for a kiss."Aren't you tired, maybe we should just rest for tonight?""Oh, Remy... I would never be too tired for you," He winked and pulled me in for another kiss."What are you doing?" Ghazi questioned when my hands roamed his chest and then to his back. I was truly curious, what if he got hurt earlier? I doubt that he would tell me if he did."I'm checking you for wounds. Look, I know you have guards, but something just felt off with your last call. I just...I wanted you to be safe." I cupped his face and kissed his lips gently. I didn't mean for him to feel guilty, but his face to
The Professional Bed Warmer 51. Oscar got hurt
Seeing Ghazi was one thing, but seeing how Dion reacted to Ghazi when he was at my place made me feel rattled. I worried about what Dion might do, and what Ghazi would then do to him. It was not worth it to let the two men fight over me. I know where I stand and now with the pictures and the stalker, I am a mess."Hey, how are you holding up?" Dion caressed my arm, before scooting closer and kissing the side of my head. I shouldn't have encouraged him, but I leaned closer to him anyway."Better now that you're here." Lies. It was all lies. I wanted to be alone, but I didn't want to think about Ghazi. Letting Dion here with me was better. And letting him guide me to my bed, and engulfing me in his arms, I felt a tad bit better. If not safer, just because I have someone to hold me.When morning came, he easily told me to take the day off. "Take a sick day. You don't look so good. I'll go to the office and bring you dinner later.""Stay with me then," I said
The Professional Bed Warmer 52. Zal to the rescue
"He's sleeping. I got Doc to check on him an hour ago and Oscar was given more pain meds just to help him rest. I'd say he's more rattled than hurt. The marks should be better in about a week or less." I paused to let Ghazi ask questions and when he didn't, I carried on."I've been digging and your uncles are desperate, they reach out to Yubkin Komarov. But those Russian thugs are a mess right now. They're struggling internally, we have a good chance of ending all this. You just need to say the word." I offered, knowing though his uncles were the bad apples, they were still family."They did try to kill me. I need to think about this. Give me time. And where are you coming back to the city?""Oscar, he wanted to go to your place, but I know you have Remy there...so I," The words linger, cause I know he still has feelings for his ex. Things didn't end well between them but my cousin means well."Fuck, thanks for doing this for me. But I think you need to s
The Professional Bed Warmer 53. Oscar heard something
Maybe I was imagining things, but I was so sure that I heard Zal groan out my name last night. Ugh...maybe the drugs were just too good. This place does have very thin walls as I heard him walk around his room when morning came."Oscar?""Yes?" I didn't know why my voice was throaty. I didn't mean to be sexy, but the man was so damn fine that I was sure he had men lining up with his bad boy appearance. Huh...maybe the bad boy image is my kryptonite. I seemed to fall to Ghazi fast enough that I let him take my virginity only to have him dump me months later. God...I really need to forget about my ex."Breakfast will be ready in twenty, I already ordered from a nearby restaurant. Get your meds, and I'll make us coffee." His eyes darted around my room before he settled on my naked chest and for a couple of seconds I was sure I saw interest in his eyes. Was last night true? Could he jerk off imagining me?I felt a flush of warmth up to my cheeks. I was
The Professional Bed Warmer 54. Ghazi was settled
"You what?" I almost yelled at him before I realized I had no right to do so since I broke up with Oscar many many months ago. If he were to find another man, Zal would be the one person that I trust with Oscar's life. Maybe he was over me. That should be good, right? Shit...now I feel like a jerk for thinking about Oscar while I have Remy waiting for me in the living room."Ghazi, you tossed him months ago. Maybe you still have feelings for him, but you didn't even call him when he needed you. He was waiting for you to fucking call. I watched him. The man is fragile as a freaking virgin.""And what did you do? You kissed him. Tell me if I'm wrong." I knew I sounded like a jerk. Zal and I rarely fight, but when we do we tend to do it the harsh way."You're not wrong, this is why I'm telling you because I don't like secrets between us. I want you to know. I need you to tell me that this is okay, cause as much as I like the guy. You're still my family."His

"Hey Remy," Jacqueline greeted and I smiled at her, fully aware that it didn't even feel genuine. "Oh, honey...is everything okay?""Ugh...you know me so well, don't you?" I sat down throwing her another reluctant smile.Since the first moment Ghazi introduced me to Jacqueline, I knew she was a good person. She may have a questionable line of work, but she said that she enjoyed being a sugar baby. And Ghazi did shower her with gifts and vacation destinations that I wouldn't even dream of until I met the Iranian businessman."Is it Ghazi? You sounded a bit worried on the phone.""It's just that...he's been distant lately, though he has been sexually fulfilling." I shrugged with a little smile on my face, remembering our last intimate session. "He's also been very generous, but there were these calls...oh Jacqueline, I'm so overwhelmed with his affection that I don't know if I'm overanalyzing stuff or if he's keeping something from me."Jacqueline pu
