Chapter 29~ Valerie's POV=========After a long drive on the road, Dante and I finally arrived at a fancy-looking restaurant which it's name was inscribed, "The Dandelions".Truthfully I was impressed with his choice and I voiced, "Great choice,"With a slight smile, he uttered "Thanks, A unique spot for a unique woman, it's a win-win choice," Instantly, I blushed at his words as I saw him open the door at his side of the car.Swiftly, approaching my side of the car, he gently held on to the car handle as he opened it wide and said, "My lady?"Do not see me as a fairytale kind of girl but every time he opens the door for me, I always feel like I am the only girl in the world which triggers my self-confidence in every way possible.Seeing this, I said to him, "Thank you, Dante," with a smile on my face I carefully got out of the car and he immediately slammed the door as I stood in front of it.Then he uttered to me with his right arm curved for my hands to be ushered in it. "Shall w
Chapter 30 ~ Valerie's POV=========After the dinner we had, we walked our way to his car, as we entered it, he didn't drive instantly but turned his look at me I could see him staring directly into my eyes like he was about to rip out my soul."Why are you staring at me that way?" I asked with a smile on my face."Nothing just want to stare at you for the rest of the night," He responded, with sincerity shown in my eyes."Well, I love it when you look at me that way, it makes me feel hot," I opened."Really, tell me what else you feel when I stare at you," He said, encouraging my word flow as he moved closer to me.I couldn't breathe properly as I was consumed by my desires, so I began speaking in a more sexier way I could think of at that moment.I didn't resist his allure as he got so close to me with his lips, not an inch away from me.So without hesitation, I met his lips with mine as we began melting into one another with a deep driven French kiss.Gosh, why is he so good at th
Chapter 31~Valerie's POV=========On the following day, I woke up on time even before the alarm buzzed.I got dressed in a classy but elegant manner as I headed to the sitting room with my channel bag held in my hand.Then I heard my mother's voice, "You are up early?" She said.Chuckled I responded, "Yes Mom, I have to work you know,""Right, just be comfortable at work so it won't draw back your healing," She reminded."Of course Mom, I'm not a child, I'd be on my way now," I said to her."So.... How'd I look?" I inquired after agreeing to her shown care."Beautiful as always," She complimented."Thanks, Mama," I thanked her as I moved close and kissed her on her cheek."Alright ma, bye and take care of yourself," I said finally as I walked out of my apartment.Stepping outside I knew it would be a long day for me as I saw no taxi in place.So I took my phone out of my bag held it in my hands, and began clicking on the buttons, "I just hope there is an Uber close by," I said.Then
Chapter 32~Valerie's POV===========Upon arriving there, I was greeted with the warmest regards and then we instantly went straight into our given agenda.Within some time it all came to an end as I found some extremely talented authors.Then they all dismissed from the conference room, leaving only Dante and I there.So..... What do you think?" He began as the silence echoed loudly on us."Are we making the right decision by accepting these author's creatives," he continued."Well, I wouldn't judge them yet, but I could feel it in my guts and the manner they presented their story outline, that it would be the best decision we have ever made in this company," I said to him."Alright then, I trust your judgment," He uttered to me, exhaling his breath audibly."I'd go now, so I can work on these books, then I would draft out the summaries and bring them to you in a file," I said to him, as I jilted my seat back a little."No problem Valerie I'll be in my office whenever you are ready,"
Chapter 33~Dante's POV========Immediately Valerie left the conference room, which left me seated all by myself as some cringe thoughts kicked in about taking my plans towards Valerie to the next level."I should switch up my acting now, enough with the perfect guy charade," I muttered to myself."It is starting to disgust me," I continued."But I won't lie, I enjoyed it, even with the sex, Valerie Is good," I admitted as my voice softly echoed.Suddenly while still in my thoughts, My phone rang melodically."Who could this be," I said to myself, as I checked the screen of my phone only for me to realize it was one of my many girlfriends."Perfect timing," I uttered.Then, I answered the call as I relaxed properly into my seat with the phone placed on my right ear, so I said, "Hello Christine,""Hey baby, how are you?" Christine spoke."Living, it's quite surprising you called," I uttered to her."It shouldn't be a surprise to you, I called at least we are dating," She reminded me.D
Chapter 34~ Valerie's POV=========The moment Richard reached my house, he turned off his car's engine and the quietude of the night wore on us as the dim sound of cricket was audible despite sitting in the car."Valerie, can I take you on a date," He said with firmness and determination visible on his face.This felt funny to me as I couldn't hold in my heard laughter."What have I said that felt so funny to you?" He asked."Hold on, is that how you ask a girl out on a date, Richard, what has happened to your flirtatious words on women," I said with my laughter still ongoing."I guess, life did, I just don't have the strength for back and forth anymore, if I like you or just want sex I'd rather let you know than tell unnecessary lies," He uttered."OMG, Richard, So much changes in you all at once," I teased."Come on Valerie, Don't mock me, I'm only trying to be a decent man, hoeing around back in college, taught me self-worth," He explained."Mmm-mmm, I can see that, "I chimed in.
Chapter 35 ~ Dante's POV========The moment Valerie walked out of my office, I hurried and stood up from my seat with Christine on her feet. "Fuck," I said."Who was that?" Christine asked."Nothing that concerns you," I responded to her."Are you for real, Dante," She snapped."Is she one of those you are fucking?" She questioned with jealousy in her tone."Christine, mind your business," I uttered to her.As I threw some dollars to her, "Get yourself home,""Note, you are not my girlfriend nor in any relationship possible, we only satisfy one another for mere pleasure," I reminded her as I coordinated my composure.Goodness, why am I not happy after knowing she saw this, why do I feel disturbed and surprisingly scared of her absence from my life?"Do you love her?" Christine questioned.I wouldn't lie I wish I could answer that myself but all I know is I want to clip her wings of pride and make her remember never to mess with Dante Blaze."Please don't ask me unnecessary questions,
Chapter 36~ Valerie's POV==========Immediately I got into my office, I couldn't breathe properly as I had never felt such betrayal before.Was this the reason for his no-office romance rules, I wish I could scream out my pains right now.But I'd just be making a fool out of myself because I opted for this.Gosh, what's so special about her, why is history trying to repeat itself with me, when it comes to men?"God, what's my offense, a honest man is what I needed not disguise," I muttered.As I began feeling sick like I wanted to vomit, with haste I rushed out of my office and went into the lady's room.Reaching there, I threw up into the zinc not minding the fact I wasn't the only one in there.Even though I wasn't even looking to check who it was.Immediately I got done, I washed my face with some water and suddenly I heard Ruth's voice."Miss. Skye, are you feeling well?" She asked with a sympathetic tone."I don't know really, probably I should head home," I stated."Should I dr
