ADDICTIVE LOVE CHAPTER EIGHT
Lilian had gone thirteen chapters when she heard the main gate open. Seemed Damian was home. She walked to her window and saw him get out of the car and walk towards the house. She stared for a while then went back to her bed. She continued to read and listened carefully for any voices or summons from one of the maids to go and see Damian. Soon enough, she heard a knock on her door then someone opened it and came in. It was Damian. What were we doing there?Lilian looked up from her book and stared at him in confusion. He just stood there looking at her wordlessly. Lilian shrugged him off and kept reading. Maybe he got lost and forgot where his room was."You know, my maids greet me when I come in" Damian finally said."Well, that's good for you," Lilian said without looking up from her book. She took a cookie from the bowl that was beside her. She got peckish earlier and went down for a snack and brought the bowl of cookies upstairs with her.Damian continued to stare at her while sh
ADDICTIVE LOVE CHAPTER NINE
Lilian soon was able to climb onto her bed. Her legs were slightly numb but at least she could move them a bit. She collapsed onto her bed with a groan of satisfaction and tiredness. Damian was wild and she loved it. The poor maid had to witness the whole thing and fainted. Now she was going to get fired but Lilian had a feeling that she would have quit on her own, either way. The room was cool and the evening was quiet. Her body regained its composure slowly. Soon enough, she was almost back to her normal self. Her tummy rumbled. A pounding like that deserved some proper food. She had only had breakfast and cookies all day. She was going to consider lunch but then Damian come home and well... plans changed. No one came to call her for dinner since Damian left. She got up and went to the bathroom to freshen up. She smelled strongly of him. His cologne had a heavy scent and it stuck to her. As she washed up, she slid her fingers across the sensitive spots on her waist and back. She fe
ADDICTIVE LOVE CHAPTER TEN
Tuesday was busy for Damian. This meeting was really important to him. If had never taken anything seriously in his life, this was certainly an exception. He was having an important meeting with his rivals and had to make a good impression. He had been topping them for years now so he had to show that it was not all just dumb luck.As he dressed, he wondered if he should still take Lilian along. That lady was trouble but it was not like she was going to do anything important. She was the hottest thing he had amongst his staff. She was just going to stand there and be the 'attractive assistant that caught everyone's attentionHe looked at the dress he had brought out her for the occasion. It was red and sleek. With a neckline that was a bit wide so that her full cleavage could be seen. He wanted to make sure that everyone else slobbered over her like the dogs they were. He had bought himself a new suit to match as well. It was ironic that assistants matched their bosses. He asked one
ADDICTIVE LOVE CHAPTER ELEVEN
Damian waited for the suit. He gripped angrily at his desk. The cleaner tried her best not to meet his angry gaze. She was quick yet thorough. The faster she cleaned the better it would be for her. Soon she was done and she took her leave. No sooner had she left, than the driver came in with a new suit. It wasn't as grand as the one he had but considering the large crimson stain he had running down his shirt, the new suit was way better. He went to the bathroom and got changed. He didn't plan today like this at all. As he attended to his injury, he remembered the snickering faces of his rivals when they saw him. It angered him and the sting of the methylated spirit on his cheek intensified it."This is all Lilian's fault. She did it on purpose," he thought. He cleaned up properly and headed towards the conference room. He was fifteen minutes behind schedule.As he walked in, the room was silent. He could hear slight snickers and could feel their mocking looks all over him. He took his
ADDICTIVE LOVE CHAPTER TWELVE
The morning was early. It was Wednesday. Lilian had slept in again. She knew the maids let her sleep on purpose. They definitely didn't want to get in her way. Not with the mood that she was in. As her eyes fluttered open she could hear the Chrysler leave the compound. Damian had gone to work. "Good riddance!" Lilian thought. The planet had enough assholes already. She was going to sleep in. She however got up and looked at her face in the mirror. The bruises had mostly healed, but the outlines were still very visible. She sighed and was about to head back to bed and soon heard a light knock on the door."Miss Mendez..."Lilian flung the door open and terribly startled the poor maid. She was lucky the door opened the opposite way, else she would have had a terrible concussion."Morning," Lilian said emotionlessly."Morning Miss Mendez. Mr. Richards asked that this be given to you."She handed her some folded clothes. She took them and gave a hasty thanks and shut the door. She really
ADDICTIVE LOVE CHAPTER THIRTEEN
Damian was seated on his armchair. With whiskey in his hand as usual. Soon he heard a knock on his door."Mr. Richards, dinner is ready.""I'll eat a bit late."And with that, the maid took her leave. Damian continued to sit patiently. Maybe she wasn't coming. Not that it...Soon another knock was heard. His door opened and Lilian came in. She looked emotionlessly at him.Damian smirked."Nice of you to join the party," he said with a smile as he downed the remaining contents of his drink. Lilian walked up to him and sat on the armchair just opposite him. She poured herself some whiskey and downed it all in one gulp."I'm here because I want to be here and not because you convinced me to," she said coldly."Of course you are," said Damian as he stood up and went to his bedside. He took off his watch and set it down on the table. He turned his head to the waste basket that lay near the door. It was filled with discarded papers."Be a good maid and throw those out. That's why I called y
ADDICTIVE LOVE CHAPTER FOURTEEN
Damian got dressed and lay on his bed, his head spinning. Was he angry that Lilian teased him? Yes, he was but it wasn't that big a deal. He looked at his watch. It was past 1. He looked out the window and saw that the sky was looking beautiful and bright. Maybe he would go on a stroll. He had been cooped up at home for a while and hadn't had a little leisure time. He got up and dressed properly. A pair of casual jeans and a black shirt would do perfectly. He asked the driver to prepare his BMW and that he was going into the countryside. He also asked the chef to prepare an early lunch for him–and Lilian. He was taking her along with him. She hadn't left his house for the past four months she had been his maid, except on days that he took her to work.It was settled. He was taking the she-devil out with him. The chef brought lunch for Damian and he took the other tray to Lilian who was surprised to have lunch brought to her so early. She however ate happily. She loved Antonio's cookin
ADDICTIVE LOVE CHAPTER FIFTEEN
The driver drove out of the Southside but didn't go home. He took a turn and headed into the countryside. It was getting late and the breeze was cool and refreshing."Where are we going?" Lilian asked."Not a shooting range," was Damian's reply. Lilian pouted and said nothing more. They kept driving until they reached a beautiful fenced compound. They stepped out and Damian brought out a key and opened the gate. As they walked inside, Lilian's mouth opened wide. The garden was a magnificent sight. She had never seen anything so perfect and beautiful. The driver walked up to Damian's and handed him a blanket.Were they going to have a picnic? But they didn't pack any food or drinks. What kind of picnic was this?Lilian wandered through the twisting paths. The flowers were in full bloom. The scent of marigolds, roses, chrysanthemums, bluebells, and daffodils gave the air a concoction of smells. It was beautiful. There were willow trees, swaying daintily in the wind, and a large oak tr

Chapter 121Every day was filled with fear for Lilian as she waited for her week in the hospital to come to an end. Finally, it did come and she was filled with more fear than ever. Damian hadn't come to see her again and she asked Dr. Gray to take her home.Noon came and Dr. Gray signed her discharge papers and he took her to his car. She was weak but she managed to walk on her own. She got into the passenger's seat and Dr. Gray was at the wheel."Are you ready?" he asked her."No."Dr. Gray exhaled."Damian really has changed. For the better you know. He has been coming to therapy with me.""Can we just go?"Dr. Gray revved the engine and soon, they were on the road. Each mile they covered filled her with anxiety. She was nervous and unsure of her decision. They soon got to his place and the guards opened up. Gray drove into the compound and they were very surprised to see her. They had thought she died.They walked to the door but before they could knock, Damian opened the door. He

Chapter 120It was rolling into the third week and Damian went to see Lilian every day after work and then he would have therapy sessions with Dr. Gray. Rosé saw him constantly at the hospital and soon, they were able to smooth things over.The business was rising steadily and they had managed to secure the number two spot. Adam was really putting in a whole lot of effort and if he hadn't been on the ground, Damian would have been dirt broke.Every day, he felt his heart plummet. Lilian hadn't woken up yet. Damian was at work and was in a very important meeting. He had managed to get his investors back and was in a presentation, made by Adam about how they could increase company profits. The reactions were positive and there were a lot of nods. Things were actually going very well.Damian listened to Adam as he spoke and was very impressed with him. His phone soon rang and interrupted the meeting. All eyes were on him."I am so sorry. "He pulled out his phone and saw that it was Dr.
ADDICTIVE LOVE CHAPTER 119
Chapter 119For an entire week, Damian couldn't go to work. he was home, a drunken mess. Adam was calling every day but he paid him no attention. He just wanted to be left alone. He had gone to the hospital every day of the week but he was never let in. Dr. Gray had told the security personnel to turn him out if they saw him. He feared the worst for Lilian. He didn't know how she was doing, whether she was dead or alive. He sat at his wine cabinet and took another swing of liquor. He e was dead drunk. He still hadn't found his briefcase and had questioned all the maids about it but none of them knew where it was. He was miserable. He took another swing and fell to the floor. His senses were all muddled. Everything in the room began to spin. Every now and then he would see a figure that looked like Lilian but when he rubbed his eyes, it was a coat or chair. Sometimes he would see Antonio but the smile on his face was a frown that intensified his guilt. Camilla had called a couple of
ADDICTIVE LOVE CHAPTER 118
Chapter 118Lilian was in her room sobbing into her pillow. Her head ached and her body was weak. Suddenly, the door busted open and she saw a furious Damian at the door glaring at her. He looked around her room, throwing her things to the floor and pulling her drawers wide open."Where is it?!"Lilian was confused. Where was what? Damia looked at her and she was ill. Her eyes were only glistening with tears but he didn't care. He walked up to her and grabbed her long black locks and yoinked her out of bed. Lilian felt her scalp in terrible pain. She was dragged to Damian's room and he threw her roughly on the floor. She hit her face on the polished tiles and her lips began to bleed."Where is it?! Where the fuck is my briefcase?! You were the only one that saw me open it you keep it in my wardrobe. You are the only one that knows what is inside it!"Lilian began to cry. She had no idea where it was. She hadn't taken it."I don't know," she said amidst tears and sobs."Domain grabbed
ADDICTIVE LOVE CHAPTER 117
Chapter 117The weekend was short. Sunday was busy for him and so was Monday. Tuesday rolled in and Damian was getting ready for work. He hadn't seen Lilian all weekend. She stayed clear of him and out of his sight. She only came out when she was sure that he had gone out or in the middle of the night to get something to eat when she was sure that he was asleep. He wasn't bothered, as long as she wasn't in his way, he was fine with it. His meals were made by his maids and they honestly did a good job though none of them were official chefs. He had put his search for a new chef on hold. It seemed he had bad luck with them. They were either crushing on his women or dying for some reason.Rosé was still mad at him for whatever reason and she was still giving him her sour attitude. He had released their pay cheques and was in his office enjoying a game of solitaire.Adam texted him. He was really grateful for the little increase in his already massive pay. He smiled at the message and co
ADDICTIVE LOVE CHAPTER 116
Chapter 116Camilla and Damian were at it till late in the evening. Camilla was terribly worn out and Damian lay beside her equally breathless.She turned to him but he gave her no attention."So, what changed your mind? I thought that you were intoxicated with your sweetheart"Daman continued to stare at the ceiling."You can leave now."Camilla wasn't offended in the least. She knew Damian quite well and that this was how he worked but it was good enough for her. She had had wild nights with Sean but this night had to top all of them by the largest margin.She got up from bed and picked up her clothes and got dressed. Damian watched her and the entire time, she had a smirk on her face. Soon she was dressed and she picked up her handbag."I had a spectacular time Mr. Richards. I hope we can do this again."She winked at him and left his room. Damian took a deep breath and ran his hand through his ravaged hair. He looked at the clock and saw that it was quite late. He had asked his dr
ADDICTIVE LOVE CHAPTER 115
Chapter 115Lilian was home alone and she was looking through his cookbook. She had asked the maids not to bother about breakfast for her and soon they left after the chores for the day were done.She wanted to make breakfast for herself using Antonio's cookbook. She saw a recipe for waffles and she was instantly down to try. She found some waffle mix and the waffle maker and set to work.She enjoyed herself while she was making the meals. She felt like the book was her only connection to Antonio. Whenever she used it, she could hear his voice gently guiding her to his thick italian accent. She wondered if Anna felt that way when she was at home.Soon, she was done but it was missing the berries. She wondered if the berries in the garden were ripe. She took a little basket with her and headed out the front door. She saw Dean and Dylan having an arm wrestling match. They stopped as soon as they saw her. Dean looked away a bit and Dylan noticed and stifled a laugh."Wher are you off to
ADDICTIVE LOVE CHAPTER 114
Chapter 114Damian came home late and he found Lilian in the living room with the television on enjoying a bowl of pasta. He could smell the food and it smelled just the way that Antonio used to make it."How did you get that?"Lilian was started by his presence. She didn't know that he was home. She didn't even hear the car drive in."Anna came by and she brought me Antonio's cookbook. So I followed the recipe and made his famous spaghetti."Lilian was smiling. She hoped that Damian would like to have some. It would probably cheer him up but he simply gruffed and headed upstairs. Lilian was alone. she took a deep breath and continued watching her show. She was uninterested now and she sat there staring at the television and she couldn't hear a thing they were saying. Her phone beeped beside her. She picked it up and saw that it was a message from Rosé "I hope you are okay. I didn't see you at work today."Lilian smiled sadly. Rosé seemed to be the only person that was checking on he
ADDICTIVE LOVE CHAPTER 113
Chapter 113Damian walked in and he seemed very angry. Lilian was nervous and she swallowed hard when she saw him. Rosé saw her fear and held her hand reassuringly.Damian looked from Rosé to Lilian. Rosé stared back at him unafraid. Damian looked at the pair and headed upstairs. Lilian breathed and Rosé looked really nervous and scared for her."Are you sure that you want to stay here? My offer is still open. You can stay with me."Lilian nodded."I'll be fine."Rosé couldn't force her and she stood up and left. Lilian sat at the dinner table unsure of what to do. She was terrified and scared. She finally decided to head back up to her room. As soon as she got upstairs, Damian called her."Come here. Now."She walked to his room and closed the door behind her. Damian was at his wine cabinet, drinking.She stood looking at him."I don't need you at work anymore. You can stay home. The maids will be brought back and you can stay at home. Now leave."Lilian left and didn't look back. Sh
