CHAPTER SIX “ I would like to see you try that again” King smirked, pulling out his hands to accept Shekinah who was already approaching us.“ I see you both are having a great time discussing” she added.“Hmm,” I took a sip from my glass.“I must say, your fiancèe is a lovely woman” Shekinah took a glance at Maureen across the room who was also staring into my soul then back at me. I was surprised by Shekinah's compliment. Just a few minutes ago, the two were at each other's throats and now she found her lovely? King was just as surprised as I was. “Now you listen to me Shekinah, if your intention here is to steal my husband away from me then you are a liar.” Maureen came to Shekinah out of nowhere, snapping her fingers at her face.“What are you saying, Maureen?” She asked, confused. “Don’t you dare act innocent you bitch. You are a good-for-nothing pest looking for who to feed off and have sex with.”Maureen added shamelessly “Adrian Caution your fiancée or else….. King had

Chapter 5Shekinah’s POVI could sense Adrain’s eyes on me with each passing moment. If I went to the left, his eyes followed. To the right, it repeated the same action. Crazy enough, his eyes always moved from my face to my chest, down to my toes before returning to my face.Staying with King for so long, I was able to learn how to act distracted but still not distracted. That was the key to making him more and more obsessed with me. Occasionally, I would glance at him as though it was a normal act or coincidence.And fortunately for me, he bought it. It was so easy to do and I loved it. He winked at me once and I knew to act as though I did not just see it. Then finally, the guard dog, Maureen. She has been looking at me for a long time. Not just looking, but monitoring me.My every move, my every word, she made sure to monitor. Worse, she was trying to act like she wasn’t doing it. It was so easy to predict her and watch her move. At one point, I stared at her directly, but I did n

Chapter 4Maureen's POVThe media that surrounded the entire room all had eyes on King and the lady beside him. They were confident and they looked like a power pact couple. The perfect couple. One that I had always wanted for me and Adrain. It made me upset.I released my fist and stared at my palms which had turned red. They were hurting but there was visible injury. Adrian was only a few steps away from me. While King and that woman enjoyed the media's attention I chose to go to my man.It did not take long and I was standing in front of him. “What is the meaning of this?” I asked, my face showcasing the anger I had“What do you mean?” Adrian asked, taking only a single glance at me before looking past me“King George” I spoke with gritted teeth “Why would you invite him? You never told me you two made amends. And why anyway? He is not to be trusted and…”I stopped talking when I noticed Adrain was not listening to me. He had his eyes solely on the couple that was taking everyone's

Chapter 3Shekinah’s POV“I apologize for the delay, Mr Adrian,” I said, with an only-lip smile “Hope you didn’t wait long?”“No, I just arrived. It would have been bad to keep a beautiful lady like you waiting so I’ll apologize for that” Adrian said, obviously trying to sweet talk meI smiled but it disappeared almost the same way it came as we took a seat. The private waiter came in and filled two glasses with wine and placed it in front of us before moving back to the side where he had been standing since Shekinah got into the room.“You look better than when I last saw you at the party” he tried to strike up a conversation with me mostly revolving around our little connection on the dance floor“You are not so bad yourself, Mr. Adrian” I played the game, picking up and twirling the drink in the cup with an added smirk on my face as I took a sip“I’m flattered. You can call me Adrian” he saidI said nothing and as though nothing happened a few minutes ago, I took out the file from

Chapter 2 Shekinah’s POV“What did you say?” I asked, looking over my shoulder at personal assistant, Vivian I was at my office window looking out of it when Vivian came interrupting my thoughts but well, she would not do that if it were not something that would be very interesting to me. Vivian shrugged with her face tilting to the side. “It’s a huge deal”I took a seat on my office chair as I finally found something to take me out of the thoughts that only had mine and king’s relationship around it. “It’s a six hundred million dollar deal. It will run for six months. Not only does it give us a great profit but it takes our company past all the borders we have crossed. There is also a chance of getting more profit” Vivian kept telling me the perks of this deal I was excited and curious to know what the problem was. Truly. It’s not every day you get such deals but she was not telling everything just yet. “You’re holding something back” I spilt my thoughts to her Vivian

Chapter 1 Shekinah's POVI stepped out of the car, tucking my hair behind my ear as I gazed afar into the building that stood before me. My hands held his arm causing him to turn to the side. King took a quick glance at me before we approached the red carpet. This was a black and red-themed mask party hosted by one of the prestigious figures in the city; Klaus and Debrah.On that note, I and king had our masks on but we were still noticeable. King wasn't a man that loved publicity. I understood that the moment we walked passed the red carpet. As we both walked past, my eyes caught a man that left me amazed. He was standing with a woman which I presumed was his wife considering how she clinched to him leaving her DNA all over his face.She wrapped her right hand around his neck then her other hand was placed on his chest with her diamond ring taking its own special attention. The cameras’ flashes began to go off and they halted to take the picture. Not just any picture bu
