Naevia takes Zane to his study room and sits with him. She goes through the papers and thinks of what must be done.Zane, on the other hand, just sat there admiring Naevia as she went through the paper with so much zeal.He was happy with the fact that he quickly asked for her help before she walked away. This was part of his plan to get to know Naevia more.When the guard gave him the paper to go through it, Zane was thinking about what must be done. He noticed Naevia leaving and remembered Kelvin's advice.Zane quickly asked for her help. He was curious to know how good she was with works like this."From what I'm seeing here, I think shipping the goods would be easy if you take this route, "Naevia suggested, pointing to the paper."Well, if you say so, then that's what they'll do. I'll send Kelvin over there to direct them on what to do. He'll get the work done in a jiffy," Zane decided. Moving closer to Naevia to see what she's pointing at.Naevia feels the warmth from Zane's body
Laughter could be heard coming from the study room. Zane and Naevia were done eating their food. The empty plates and glass showed how much they enjoyed the meal. But the two of them weren't there."Full concentration. No distractions please," Naevia ordered Zane. Placing her hands on her head and gazing down at the chessboard. Both of them had gone to sit on the couch to begin their game night. The game was chess. Naevia brought it since that's what Zane loved playing the most. Information gotten from Kelvin."Alright then. No distractions my lady. Do as you please," Zane listened, crossing his arms and watching her.Naevia gazed hard at the chessboard. She brought her right hand down and picked the queen. She sees an opening and kills most of Zane's pawns."Haha! I'm getting a hang of this now," she cheered and sat back excitedly.Zane scoffed at her and said, facing down at the chessboard, "Good one Naevia. But you left so many openings to your King." Zane pointed it out for Naevi
At the mansion, Naevia sits alone in the living room. Thinking of what to do to please Zane. After the funtime she had with him, all she felt like doing was pleasing him. There was this strong feeling in her heart that glowed and fluttered in her tummy. But Naevia refuses to accept what it was.She kept telling herself that she's just performing her role as Zane's wife and doesn't care about him."When he comes, we can both play chess for a little while then talk to each other about somethings in our past. Somehow..." She looks calm. "I feel like knowing about Zane's past. I'm curious to know how he was able to get up to this level all by himself. It must have been hard for him." Naevia reasoned, leaning her back against the couch and thinking.Anyhow she wants to do it, Naevia feels everything will be fine. Her heart is on tonight and she just doesn't know why she feels so excited about it.. Night falls, Zane returns back home to the mansion late. He looks very tired and wishes to
The next morning, Zane stays back home. He had no work to do that day, so he just stayed home.He sat on a couch in his living room, going through the newspaper. He fixed his gaze on the news like he was searching for something.Just as he was doing that, Naevia passed by without looking at the living room. Zane spotted her passing with his side view.He lifted his head up to look at her and saw her going. She just walked away without even glancing into the big room. Seeing her, Zane recurred last night. How he met her laying on the couch with the chess board in her hands.He also remembered his promise to her concerning the chess game. Since he wasn't doing anything, he decided to go and meet her.Zane dropped his paper aside and made his way out of the living room. Taking the path Naevia had taken..Naevia came out of the bedroom in a black trouser and ash shirt. When she woke up, she didn't meet Zane.She had assumed that he had gone to work already. Her plan was to give him some
Evening had fallen, almost turning the sky dark. Naevia was at the balcony, watching the sky turn dark.She stayed there, drinking her pineapple juice and enjoying the view of the evening sky.That wasn't the only thing in her mind. Naevia had the memory of her outing with Zane, playing in her head.She couldn't stop thinking of the way he smiled at her while eating at the restaurant. It felt pleasing to her.Naevia wondered how Zane was when he was little before growing up to being the Mafia boss he is today.Sipping out of her drink, she made a statement, relating to the chess game. "The king is the boss and the pawns are his soldiers," she reminisced."Are you talking about chess?" Zane's voice came from behind. Naevia heard his voice and turned back a little.She found Zane standing behind her already. Gazing at the evening sky. " I thought I heard something about a king and boss," he pointed out. Moving closer to Naevia.Naevia hummed and turned back to the position she was in b
After that day, Naevia and Zane's relationship became better. They became closer than ever over the days that ran by. They didn't hesitate to help one another with something. Naevia no longer saw Zane as a stranger, but a friend and husband. All the traces of the husband she has always wanted could be seen in Zane now.Her feelings for him changed. She now had butterflies that fluttered in her stomach whenever she laid her eyes on him. Back then, Naevia would try to hide how she was feeling around Zane. Then, she couldn't tell how she was feeling around him, but now she does. She no longer wants to hide it from him, but doesn't know how to show it to Zane. She feels Zane doesn't feel that way about her. Friday morning, Zane woke up early and left the mansion for work. Naevia had wanted to wake up early that day to get him food to take along, but she overslept.That's because she and Zane had a chess game last night, and she finally won against him."Damn it! I didn't wake up early
Their faces, gazing at one another. Naevia wasn't expecting Zane to pull her back like that. She wondered if he senses her feelings.Not sure, she decided to speak up her mind. "Zane, I want to..."Before she could utter any more words or complete her sentence, Zane crashed his lips down on hers and kissed Naevia passionately.Naevia was blown away immediately. Her eyes widened as she watched Zane kissing her with all of his heart.Zane stops kissing Naevia and draws his face away from hers a bit. Looking right into her eyes.He smirked and said, travelling his hands down to her hips. "I think I know what you want to say. This is my answer to it." He locked his lips back again and pulled her closely with so much love in him.Naevia feels her heart blooming at this. She wrapped her arms around Zane and kissed him too.It turns out that Zane noticed her greenlight through the way she was behaving at his touch. It was clear to him that Naevia wanted him but didn't know how to say it.He
That hour in the morning, there was a club which was active at that time. The club usually receives few rich men and women that can't come in the night to have fun.Inside the club, many men and women were inside, dancing and having fun. The club owner greeted them one at a time. Welcoming them to his club."Mr Banks! Long Time no see. I can see you brought a chick, heh heh!" The club owner laughed and conversed with one of the rich men.He walks ahead to greet the others, when his eyes fall on Zane and Naevia walking into the club.Naevia looked around the club from where she stood. It was dark inside like it was night. But the outside was as bright as day."This is the club? Waw!" Naevia asked Zane, admiring all the dancers and activities taking place there."Yes. It's where I usually come when I don't feel like going home. But I stopped for some months before marrying you," Zane explained to Naevia.Naevia looked at Zane and smirked. "Now you want your wife to share in your moment
