It is afternoon when a large bouquet is carried into my office. A warm feeling goes through me, I know exactly who it comes from. Kaylah points the man where to put it, signs for receipt and looks at me from under her eyes. I ignore her, take out a flower and smell blissful. Seeing that I don't intend to explain the sender of my present to her, she turns with a knowingly face and walks to her own workspace. Dordrich! This guy makes sure I don't forget him. Like I even can after what we shared a few hours ago. I still blush when I think about it. My phone rings on my desk. “Mr. Fellogan on line three, Loraine,” I hear Kaylah announce. Quickly I press the button and Dordrich's deep voice comes through the phone. “Princess, are you okay? Want to have dinner with me tonight?”. I’m shocked by his invitation, I had thought that our relationship would only be based on hot sex until the attraction wore off. This is definitely not a smar

                 “Princess, you are so beautiful. I can't imagine you allowed me to love you. Many in this city long for the privilege of owning you. But you gave yourself to me, out of all who want you,” Dordrich begins in an intimate tone. "Why? I know the attraction between us was strong from the start. But all these years, all those men by your side. I of all people, Princess?”. Amazed by the vulnerability in his voice, his openness, I pause for a moment. I've never seen this side in a man. All men I've encountered are confident, knowing what they're worth. Dordrich sounds a bit insecure as if he is a real human being with real feelings, capable of suffering. I have experienced this with neither Danner nor Aziel. And to be honest, I really appreciate this. With a relieved sigh I let go of my Haute attitude. Dordrich opened up to me, so I can return the same to him. I get up

  Dordrich I'm trapped in the spell of this gorgeous woman!! It's like she controls me, my body and mind. Only now do I know what the men in my circle meant when they were whispering about Loraine. Some had tried to date her, others had sent her expensive gifts to get her attention, others had pranked her like little boys by bumping into her to strike up a conversation or something. But none of the tricks helped to catch her. I've seen her on magazine covers before, sometimes alone in a sexy pose, but more often in the arms of a rich man. She is usually seen with Danner Winfield, the automotive expert. Our first personal encounter at the ballroom was like a high voltage electrical power clashing. From that moment she’s fixed her eyes on me, they have haunted me day and night. No matter what I do, my mind keeps drifting to her. In the five years I've been married to my high school sweetheart Elena, I've never taken a fancy at another woman

  Loraine “What the hell is going on here!” Startled, I throw myself against the wall of the hallway, expecting a storm to blow me away at any moment. When I turn around I see no one but Kaylah, the thorn in my side. I sigh with relief, this drama queen surely has something on her sleeve. Dordrich dropped me off in the parking lot a few minutes ago. Reluctantly I tore myself away from him, his kisses are so addictive. When I finally got out of the car, I walked straight into the elevator. I could hear him chuckle at my back, but didn’t turn around to see. And as I walk to my office, I am confronted with this show from Kaylah. She stares at me open-mouthed. “Loraine, since when do you wear such short skirts to work? This is unusual. Something is going on here.” Her drama has now reached the junior staff’s ears and I can see a few peeking through the glass of their room. I roll my eyes and keep walking. Once in my comfortabl

While walking to my office, I study the file in my hands that I should have left behind for Aziel. But circumstances have changed, and I now need it for my cover up. My mind is buzzing about why I should have to defend myself against Danner for a night I spent with someone of my choice. I've never made any demands on Danner, so I can expect the same from him.‘Because you were stupid enough to get engaged to him', I reprimanded myself. Sure enough, I bump into Danner standing in the hallway like a statue, with his hands folded. “Hi Danner, are you looking for me?”, I ask him with a dazzling smile. I get on my toes and kiss him on the corner of his mouth. He is silent as he continues to stare at me. I look back at him strangely. “What's up?”, I ask him with a frown. He turns and we walk into my study. With one blow he slams the door shut. Startled, I look up at him. “What was the need for that? Now you're drawing all the attention to us. Calm down, Danner," I tell
