Why Can't I Be Yours? 23. Perfect, Hot and Sexy
Sir Charles caught me glaring gapingly at him. As our first eyes met, fear washed over me. What am I going to tell him? The truth? No way! I doubt this to be the auspicious hour ordained by God for my feelings to become exposed. It can't be as it doesn't seem right. The truth is it can't be.And if I'm to tell a lie, I won't be able to compose one in such a short amount of time. Would I be able to lie to him? Lying is out of it. I'd just act ignorant or wait! Would think that I was lusting? I hope that won't be the case. I'd prefer to confess than be regarded as a loose girl who can't control her hormones. Anything but being regarded as miss Hailey. He refused to peel his eyes off me and I looked away as I became bashful and mortified. "Drop that over there, I would be right back," he said gesturing toward the bedroom table and I looked at him. I'm thankful that he didn't read the meaning of my behaviour. He might have taken my reaction as that of surprise judging that he was in a
Why Can't I Be Yours? 24. Total Misconception
After a while of sitting on the bed, he still held onto the fork and I was confused. I believe that he permitted me to feed him but why did he refuse to let go of the fork? Or did he change his mind?His hands were trembling. If not for my knowledge of the impact of malaria, I would have been scared. He looked up at me and anxiety hit me. "What's going on?" I soliloquized."You can help with this," he said with a reassuring look. He must have been trying to confirm if he could eat on his own but wait, I'm not forcing him.Does he feel less of a human because I would be feeding him? his maid! He can as well eat by himself. Am I disgusting? I'm not pleased one bit about this nevertheless, I would still feed him.I was glad about it earlier because I was going to sit on his bed and care for him but with this attitude, I feel like nothing but his slave. Maybe I should have looked at his nude. It would have been a nice consolation for this besides, I deserved to see him that way more tha
Why Can't I Be Yours? 25. The Storm
“Sir, you need to eat more,” Maureen told Charles. “I'm giving you a hard time and yet you want to keep attending to me?” Charles said. And he was saying the truth as Maureen is only obligated to perform her domestic duties. She wasn't just acting like a nurse, she was working like one. It wasn't in her place to do these things. “Sir, you're not. I'm performing my duties as a worker.” she pointed out and placed a spoonful of the chicken in his mouth. “I'm glad that you're passionate about your job.” he was amused at her sweetness. She fed him some more before she put the tray aside. As Maureen went to drop the tray, Charles was reminded of the sensation he felt when he had a bulge. He couldn't help so, he stared at her backside. Since he was still confused about what happened earlier in the day and the surprise he felt when he became attracted to Maureen, he wanted to confirm if he possibly wanted her. Even though he was likely going to stick to abstinence. Glaring at her, the

He believed that if Dr Gabriel saw positive changes, he wouldn't advise against going to work. He wasn't feeling any pain in his body and neither did his head throb. H
Why Can't I Be Yours? 27. Hate Upon Hate
Charles's week of rest came to an end and he would have to return to work. To Maureen, the days came by quickly and time moved like flash. Maureen was happy that Charles was indoors because she had full access to see him. She was glad that he got away from work and could rest. It didn't matter if it wasn't a month or some months' leave, as long as he had time to clear his head and rest his body, she was good. The few days she spent with him were her most treasured moments. Nothing could replace it and she was happy that he enjoyed her company as well as her care.

After Charles left the company, he drove at speed as he was angry with the outcome of the press conference. He was insulted and couldn't contain how he was feeling. With the anger and disappointment he felt, he drove to a 7-star nightclub although it was still daytime. Immediately the bar attendant saw him, he recognized him as he was a reputable fellow in the society so, he set Charles for a VIP lounge. Without wasting time, Charles picked up a glass and drank. Another glass was poured for him and he drank. He drank and drank and drank himself in a stupor from the frustration of the day. "Where are you guys now?" Helena asked over the phone. "We're in Shabes Club and we couldn't follow the boss." A body-built man replied sitting in a black car that was parked outside the nightclub."Why?" Helena asked. "He's in the VIP room and we don't want to annoy him. Also, we can't alert people of his presence, I would go in from time to time." "Alright, watch him closely." She said and han

A FEW HOURS EARLIERAfter Charles told Maureen to bring his breakfast to West Land airlines, she was worried about going to the company so, she begged Antonia to go on her behalf.Antonia accepted her request and delivered the food to Charles but he had left for a meeting so, she dropped it in his office and Ethan watched her do it till she left his office."How was it?" Maureen asked when Antonia returned. "Good but I didn't give it to Mr Charles. I dropped it in his office as he was in a meeting." Antonia answered Maureen."Okay, but I hope he won't be annoyed that I made you go instead," Maureen asked Antonia."Relax, I agreed to help okay and besides, I explained to his secretary so, he'd tell Mr Charles when he sees him," Antonia told Maureen and the two ladies went to the kitchen.*****After Charles left the press conference, Helena was worried and she called the bodyguards she sent to follow Charles severally.

Inhaling, my soul was taken by surprise and it was evident in my reaction. I least expected sir Charles to give me attention and now, he did not just throw me on his bed, he touched me.Touching me there was something I didn't expect and it was sensational since my body has no history with men. Immediately after I felt his hand on my breast, I tried pulling out of his grip but it was futile as he glared at me.Our eyes met and his gaze was magical. Something my eyes have never beheld. His crystal blue met my deep black in warmth and gay. I couldn't take my eyes off his and I tried to decipher the purpose of his gaze but as expected, I failed. I stared non–stop as his eyes sparkled and in doing this, I inhaled deeply. Honestly, I feel drowned in his glare and I'm willing to remain that way for centuries. Unable to take my eyes off him, I inhaled again, this time it was deeper. His refusal to take his eyes off mine made it hard for me to cope and soon, I was inhaling and exhaling like
