"I'll relay your response to him" miss Lorelei seemed disappointed at Beatrix decision but Beatrix couldn't do anything about that.
As much as she wanted the money, she didn't want her name being heard because of a billionaire; "Just a night" she said to herself taking a deep breath."-Or would you like to tell him yourself?" miss Lorelei asked her. She knew Paxton would be completely disappointed and she didn't want to see that disappointed look on his face but it seemed like she would have to."No, it's fine. You do it. Besides, I don't have his number and the next time I want to see him, is during the sex night" she forced a smile pushing her chair backwards and she stood up."Goodnight" she said to miss Lorelei ignoring that she was disappointed and taking her purse, she walked out of the restaurant.For some reason, she wished miss Lorelei had planned the meet up with Paxton. She wanted to see him so badly and also apologize for being tactless."I hope I'm not falling for him" she yelled at herself; he had been on her mind throughout her ride home and she feared that she might be into him"That can't be" she said convincing herself that she was just thinking about him because she had hurt him and nothing else, she concluded going to bed.~phone rings~Paxton stood up from the couch and went to the wine counter to pick up his phone which had been ringing for a while now.He had been lost in thought about his earlier experience he had with Beatrix. He felt bad and wished he could apologize and make it up to her in anyway that she wanted him to but she seemed like a strong one to get to."Miss Lorelei" Paxton said holding the phone up to his ears."G.. g... good evening Mr Lloyd" she stuttered, not sure how to break the news."Uhmm... why are you being hesitant and you're also withdrawing. I guess you didn't call me to hear me breath, spill it" he was becoming impatient.Whenever miss Lorelei called him, it was to tell him about Beatrix and this couldn't be different. He wanted to hear it so badly even though his heart beat doubled because he was afraid of the outcome."It's about Beatrix" she finally spoke up"Obviously woman! Let me hear it!" he couldn't control his impatience anymore."She made up her mind not to date you but she agreed to spend just a night with you" miss Lorelei broke the news and but on her lower lips, prepared for Mr Paxton to scold her out of anger.Hearing those words broke Paxton's heart, he didn't expect her to chose spending a night with him; she didn't seem that easy to get a night stand from, he was really confused."Okay thanks... I'll think about it and get back to you" he said hanging up without waiting for a response from miss Lorelei.Paxton dropped his phone lifelessly on the counter and reached out for a bottle of wine, he needed to get his feelings in order. He wasn't sure what she was trying to achieve by avoiding him but he'd have to step up his game to make her fall for him. Perhaps, she wanted to know how good he was in bed before she could date him, he thought within himself as he drank."Tell her to get prepared tomorrow, we'll have sex tomorrow" he said to miss Lorelei over the phone. He'd do everything he can to make her fall for him.~Beatrix woke up to her ringtone and she picked up her phone, she had gotten five missed calls from miss Lorelei.Seeing the missed calls made her heart skip and negative thoughts found their way into her headWhat if Paxton is still angry at her behavior the last time they met?What if he bluntly refused that she agreed to have a night with him instead of dating him?What if he decides to take back his offer?What would be her fate? what about her dream of making money and leaving a comfortable lifestyle?She jerked when her ringtone went off again; this time, it was Tyler and she felt goosebumps appearing on her skin"Hey" she tried to suppress her nervousness"Good morning... I think you overslept today again" he said and she immediately looked at her clock, it was almost 8am"I'll be there soon" she said hanging up without waiting for a reply from him.She was so done for and she knew it. If Paxton had changed his mind on the offer, her life was about to get tougher, she would be left with just her stripping job where she was the highest paid dancer but it wasn't enough for her comfort.Just then a call came in from miss Lorelei and she immediately clicked on the green button without thinking. In as much as she was scared to hear what Paxton's response was, she was also curious."Good morning Beatrix" Miss Lorelei said. If only she knew how impatient Beatrix was"Did you speak to him? what was his response?" she asked hurriedly, she sounded desperate but she didn't mind, she was."He said you should prepare for the sex this night. It would take place at his house" she said. Miss Lorelei's words brought ease to Beatrix, she had never been this happy."okay, thanks" she said hanging up"Yessss" she jumped up and danced around happily, finally her dreams were about to come true.~Beatrix arrived at the coffee shop late and for the first time in her life, she didn't care about it.Miss Lorena's stare had nothing on her and she walked boldly to the dressing room. Just as she was about putting on her apron, she was tapped from behind"Meet me in my office now!" miss Lorena echoed and Beatrix nodded smiling, she had expected it but she had nothing to fear, she was more than ready to quit her job, her new life had just begun.I'm sure you all are enjoying this book. Please, feel free to drop your comments on what you think about this book. I'll be glad if you do so, Thanks
Beatrix knocked on miss Lorena's door. It wasn't closed but she had to announce her presence.Miss Lorena sat at her table, her head buried on some white papers on the desk, she seemed to be busy; then why call her in, Beatrix wondered."You asked that I meet you in your office" she said when miss Lorena didn't look at her direction nor answer her when she knocked."Come in" she raised her head and gave Beatrix a scornful look; she didn't seem pleased to see Beatrix."Thanks" Beatrix's sarcasm was obvious and she took her seat. Miss Lorena was too busy with the papers on her desk; taking a quick glance at them and then at her laptop.After few minutes, she was done and she cleared her throat, adjusting on her chair. Miss Lorena was silent, trying to keep Beatrix in suspense.Of course, she succeeded but it wasn't something new to Beatrix."You came in late today" miss Lorena's voice was a bit calm making Beatrix wonder what had changed"Yeah, I know I don't have a valid excuse for tha
Beatrix stood by the wall frozen, she felt the urge to kiss him back and also the urge to push him away but instead, she wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled in, smooching her lips with his slowly to get every taste of him."Hell no!" she opened her eyes and pushed Tyler away; Paxton had been in her head while she locked lips with Tyler."Why did you do that?" she asked, her eyes widely opened at him"But you were enjoying it Bea- why stop?" he moved towards her and leaned down, bringing his hands to her face and he cupped her chin"I'm in love with you Beatrix" he reached out for her lips with his but was unlucky as Beatrix landed a slap on his cheeks."You're like a brother the me Tyler! we've been best friends since high school Ty!" she walked around the locker room brushing her hands against her hair"And I've loved you since then Bea! seeing you go home with a guy broke my heart Beatrix! Are you seeing someone? is that the reason for your sudden rejection?" Tyler sat on a
~Phone rings~"Not now!" she sighed still knocking on Tyler's door but he gave no reply."Tyler!" she yelled but it was all to no avail as Tyler didn't seem interested anymoreTyler sat by the door; his palms covering his mouth tightly to prevent his weeping sounds from escaping. He could feel his heart hurt; he didn't know if it was because he felt betrayed or because she rejected him. Maybe it was both! The pain he was feeling was enough reason to conclude it was for the both. He could hear her knock on his door while shouting his name but if his anger was greater than his sadness.He stood up from the floor and walked further into his apartment; "Maybe some alcohol would help" he said taking out a bottle of alcohol but then, he decided to check up on Beatrix, his conscience couldn't allow him just let her be, even though he believed she was wrong.He reached out for his door and placed his ears on the door to know if she was still there but he didn't hear anything. He opened the
She stared at her phone screen which she had already dropped on the bed as her heartbeat became faster.She was confused on what to do; should she pick it up or should she let it ring on? she stared at her phone until it stopped ringing and then she sighed, cursing herself"Fuck! why did I do that, I just need to tell him that the deal no longer hold" she took a deep breath, waiting for him to call again.Soon, he was calling again and this time, she braced herself and took the call but she didn't say anything first."Hey beautiful" Paxton's husky voice went straight into her ears, giving her chills that sent her chest moving up and down."Beatrix! are you there?" Paxton asked when she gave no reply."Y.. yes" she swallowed hard."Okay, I'm downstairs, come down when you're ready" he said hanging up immediately and Beatrix dropped her phone on the bed sadly. She couldn't bring herself to tell him she had changed her mind, moreover, he was already at her apartment. It wouldn't be nice
There wasn't much change in his mansion except that he had added some flowers, to compliment the wallpaper designs and she loved it. A standing fan stood by the wall, reaching every part of the room with it's pleasant air, assisted by the air condition which hung by the edge of that wall, giving the room a cool atmosphere.Beatrix took her sit elegantly on one of the couch and crossed her legs, trying to relax her nerves; she was nervous.Alot of things went through her mind; what would she do when he requests they have the sex right away? Would there be need for foreplay or would they just go into having sex? she wondered.She loved foreplay but she wanted to get over with it. She blew out air, keeping her mouth in a circular position to relieve her nervousness. She could notice her chest rising and falling rapidly and her palms became all sweaty."Let's go to the dining" Paxton said stretching out his hands and she placed hers immediately.Paxton could feel her wet hands and he tu
Warmth blossomed in Beatrix chest, sparks igniting as Paxton leaned in close, lips brushing together, with passion, for the first time. The smell of her perfume, of the soft, peachy scent of her conditioner, was dizzying, butterflies dancing in her stomach. But warmth consumed her as she leaned into the kiss, Paxton's lips were impossibly soft against her own making her feel cozy.~Beatrix POV~His lips were warm and soft and they parted slightly, allowing my tongue to slip inside.Our bodies pressed together heatedly against the couch, breathing heavily as our lips pressed together. I could feel his hands caressing my thighs which sat on his laps as I could also taste our shared breath, feel the thud of our combined heartbeat as we fumbled to take off one another’s clothes."Should we stop?" Paxton's voice echoed as he struggled to balance his breath."No Paxton" I said still consumed in the heat of the moment. I didn't want him to stop, my body longed so badly for his and I praye
"I've heard that couple of times" she turned to go away but I pulled her back."I need to get some rest" she said trying to free herself from my grip but I wasn't giving in, she already seduced me and I couldn't let her go because I knew what she wanted."If you only wanted some rest, you wouldn't have come here dressed in that" I raised a brow and she shyly looked away, nibbling on her lips."What were you thinking when you came in here wearing this? You should have known that I wouldn't be able to stand you like this” I pulled her closer to myself. Her lips parted due to heat as she felt my erection press against her bare thighs.“I know damn well and that's why I wore it" she smirked as she placed her hand around my neck.“I love this side of you; the naughty side" I caressed the bottom of my lips that had been wetted due to how many times she had stuck it in between her teeth in arousal. I heaved her from where she was and placed her on the table I was working on earlier. My lapt
~Paxton's Pov~'This felt so surreal, I had never felt anything like this in my life. Despite having a couple of sex with few girls, the thought of burying my seed in them never crossed my mind. But Beatrix? I wanted to bury more, I wanted her to be the mother of my children, I didn't want a one night stand and I was pretty sure she wanted more than that too. If only she would get rid of her fears and bad thoughts and just trust me, she would have nothing to loose' I thought as I looked at her lay helplessly on the table with her hands still placed on her clit, it seemed to have hit her hard but she loved it. I could tell from the way she looked at me.~Beatrix Pov~I stared immensely at this young bachelor in front of me. His deep brown eyes were alluring, they called out to me; but what was holding me back? My insecurities, my trust issues and my quest to be independent of any man.If that be the case, what was I doing here? on this table with his seeds already buried in me? I didn
"Mr Grey" I was astonished to see him right behind me and I moved a bit for him to walk freely towards the counter"M.. Mr Grey" the guy at the counter stuttered as Mr Grey beheld him."What were you on about employees with minor roles?" Mr Grey grabbed a chair and sat by the counter waiting for his question to be attended to"N.. n.. no.. nothing sir" his voice shook in fear "It's not what you think. I thought she was stealing from the company and using you as an excuse" he said and Mr Grey smirked."Someone here hasn't been reading the magazine of this company" he hit his fist angrily on the counter making everyone startle at first."I'm sorry sir" he apologized"Apologize to her" he said"I'm sorry miss" the coffee guy said and I looked at him in disgust and sighed."Listen up everyone" Mr Grey said loudly and the noise which was earlier heard seized immediately; what power he held!"This young lady here is my new personal assistant, I'll need you all to give her some respect" he s
"I'm Amelia" she said when we stepped out of Mr Grey's office"I'm Mia. It's nice to meet you" I said stretching out my hands but surprisingly, she pulled me into a hug"Welcome to Grey Airlines, I'm sure we'll make a good team. I'll tell you everything you need to know about your work" she smiled at me handing me a couple of files "Okay..." I chuckled clutching the files tightly to my chest"And then, Mr Grey's likes and dislikes" she rolled her eyes and sat on the desk just outside Mr Grey's office."This will be your desk" she took the files from me and dropped them on the table"oh nice" I said dropping my bag on the chair. It was right outside Mr Grey's office and I could see through the glass wall into his office."Mr Grey doesn't like late coming..." she continued, I saw her mouth move inaudibly as she said alot of things that I couldn't hear. I was staring at Mr Grey's as he went through some papers and I wondered what kind of person he was.I grasped as Mr Grey looked up at
My eyes dropped, not in disappointment but in surprise and shock.Not only did I get in, I got the post of a secretary. Not just a random secretary but a personal secretary to Mr Grey.Why?? I wondered why they'd pick me for that high post. Was Mr Grey there all through my interview? Did I impress him with my replies that he couldn't resist the urge to make me his personal secretary?"Hmm" I smiled nodding my head incessantly, I could feel butterflies in my stomach. I felt on top of the world that I impressed a billionaire. It wasn't an easy task impressing a famous billionaire; they had everything.I danced around my room gracefully in happiness and stopped abruptly when my mind went off to when I used to dance at the clubhouse, "how I missed dancing" I sniffled and my heart saddened when I remembered Paxton.I had learnt to leave with the fact that Paxton was dead and wasn't coming back to me.And Just like they say, time heals all wounds. I would still feel sad whenever I remembere
_One Year later_New York City_I took out a neatly ironed suit from my wardrobe and put it on. I needed to look good for this interview."Perfect" I smiled staring at my reflection through the mirror as I combed my hair neatly and tied it into a ponytail.I put on a black stiletto heels to compliment my white suit and I picked up my bag and some documents."Grey Airlines" I said flagging down a cab"Okay ma'am" he said and I proceeded to go in. In few minutes, we were already at the company and the cab stopped just in front of the building. I alighted the cab and took a deep breath as I looked around the company.Alot of people trooped in and I could guess majority of them also came for the interview. Grey Airlines was one of the best airlines in New York City and a lot of people dreamed to have one or two things with them, either working with them, working for them or getting to travel through them and I guess I wanted to work for them and travel through them.Despite the large num
"Ma'am, here are the keys to the apartment you paid for" the lady at the entrance of the apartment said to me and I smiled collecting it."I hope you enjoy your stay in Panama City" she added and I nodded, I hoped so too.I had decided to lay low in Panama city for a while before going to a place where I could start up another life."I can help with that" a young man said taking my bags and he took them to my apartment. I should tour panama city before returning to my apartment, I thought to myself and I waited at the entrance for my keys."I put your things in your room" the young man came downstairs handing my keys over to me "Thanks" I nodded putting on my sunglasses and I hit the streets of Panama.**One Month Later**It had been a month at Panama city and I was beginning to love the place but I needed to resume my life, I needed to start up something.I reached out for my bag and brought out the paper in which I had written Tyler's and Miss Lorelei's phone numbers.I was certai
~Beatrix POV~Hearing those words from Tyler lifted my spirit. Ever since we became friends, whenever Tyler came up with a solution, it happened to work and I was hoping this too would work.I dropped my clothes on the bed and walked towards Tyler"What's the solution?" I said standing a breath away from him and he took my hands"Come sit" he pulled me to the bed where we sat down."So I was thinking-" he cleared his throat and aswallowed hard as he stared at me who felt the suspense was killing me."I'll take the blame. I'll admit to everything" he said and I stood up abruptly in anger."Is that what you call a solution?" I yelled at him, throwing at him my clothes"Out of all things to think of! This?" I was furious at him."That's a solution! is it not? I'm trying to help you here Beatrix" "Help me? by putting yourself in the middle? then what happens to my conscience? You expect me to be fine after you admit to something you had no hand in" "You had no hand in it too. You'll wo
Beatrix got up from her bed the next morning, it was going to be a long day, she knew that.She had no where to go, no work to do and she couldn't think straight. She thought about getting her life back together but she knew very well that it was going to be a very difficult task. Nevertheless, she concluded that there was no harm in trying.She got out of bed and took a warm shower, it might help her relief stress.After than, she put on comfortable clothes and went on to prepare breakfast. Knock! knock! Beatrix heard a knock on her door"Who's there?" she shouted out loud from the kitchen but the person knocked incessantly."Who could that be?" she took her plate of food and dropped it in the sitting room."Who's there?" she asked one more time but whoever it was, the person seemed ready to knock till eternity.Taking a deep breath, she unlocked her door and opened it slowly.Before her stood a young man who wore brown pants and a black hoodie which he used to cover his face."Wh
"Let me walk you to the stage" Miss Lorelei said to Beatrix standing up from the couch. She was irritated about Laura's sudden change in behavior."Okay then" Beatrix stood up immediately and followed her."I'm sorry about Laura's behavior" she apologized as they walked together but Beatrix smiled "I knew it would happen sooner or later. It's only normal for her to express her anger" she walked ahead of miss Lorelei who doubled her pace.They got close to the stage and they stopped, waiting for the announcer to make known her presence to the crowd."You seem a bit distracted" miss Lorelei noticed"I'm not distracted, I'm just tired" Beatrix put her hand on her waist as she shook her legs to get rid of her nervousness."Okay, if you say so""...And the lady we've all been waiting for is here" The announcer said immediately he saw them back stage. The crowd clapped and cheered as they peered at the curtains as if trying to see through it."Do your best, we need to make a lot of money t
Her heartbeat doubled as her thoughts failed her. Could she be dreaming? She hoped that was the case."Paxton, Paxton" she called him, tapping him on his shoulders lightly and when she got no reply, her fear took over her. She finally found the courage to stand up and she looked down at Paxton."Noo!" she screamed crying! There was a gunshot wound close to his chest."Paxton!" she shook his violently, tears dripping from her eyes but she got no reply, he was lifeless.She picked up her phone and thought of calling the ambulance but on a second thought, she couldn't do that, she'd be the only suspect, so she made sure she took everything that belonged to her and with a heavy heart, she walked briskly out of his house.She walked as fast as her legs could carry her. She cared about Paxton, but she needed to save herself.Entering a cab wasn't necessary, she walked home. Walking home was a way of relieving her of her thoughts and soon, she was home but seems like walking didn't help her
