Hazel

The urge to slap Layla across the face grew in me. I was in nothing but a skimpy nightgown from last night. I was too lazy to change out of them even after showering. When Layla came over last night, I thought she'd give a helping hand. But instead Damon’s topic was the only thing she was interested in. If not she came because of him.

There's nothing closeby to use to cover my body when Damon footsteps emerges from the door. Our gaze straight on each other. The beating rate of my hearts isn't at it normal peak. I felt it. I felt the heat radiating off my body as he squinted his eyes on me. I hugged the decor pillow as a means of covering my body away my revealing body.

“Please have a seat” Layla offered. That was when I noticed he didn't come alone. The same guy from his office.

“Hello Miss Hazel, hope you're getting better” The guy said flashing me a smile. My eyes slightly shifted to Damon who's eyes were already on me. I don't know why he's staring at me. Do I look weird i

    DamonHad it been I know Miss Dalen will leave me hanging, I wouldn't have suggested to stop by for the morning excercise. I'm sure she did that on purpose. From fifteen minutes to thirty minutes. I don't know why I'm doing things that are unlike me. Going completely out of the plan. I don't know why but these past days that we're getting to know each other with her, I'm beginning to think of her in other ways. I fished out my phone to call her again when I sighted her advancing her way towards me. I didn't fail to notice how the workout outfit hugged her curves. Perfect places. Damon better get your shits together. My inner mind scolded. I cleared out my voice as I passed her a glare. "Sorry Mr. Damon, I had to eat" I said nothing instead rounded my way to the driver's side while she hopped in. As we drove away to the jogging field where we would do the exercise, silence engulf in the car. I didn't talk on purpose. She need to know I'm pissed. "Where are we going by the way?" She

    HazelIt still baffles me how Damon was hell bent on coming over for dinner. I literally find it weird. He has never tasted my food before and yet he wants to be coming for good five days. I might as well poison him on the accord. To get my revenge for all that he has done to me. The troubles and the pain in the ass. To be honest, I don't know what has gotten into when I told him I don't like it when he's giving me a cold shoulder. And it's true. These days, I found myself getting attached to him with each passing day we've spent together. There's this certain feeling at the pit of my stomach that I feel like it's too early to express it. After all, we’re still on the stage of getting to know each other. I've been keeping an eye on the wall clock waiting for the particular time to start cooking dinner. I don't even have anything on mind. I decided to search through some recipes online. A simple and moderate time food to cook. I felt relieved on my legs after the morning jogging. Oka

    HazelDamon kicked the door open with his legs walking straight to the door. Our lips were still hot on each other when my hands found their way to unbutton his shirt. He unhook my bra. A set of new heat traveled down my spine. His bare body was in full display.He pushed me more to the bed discarding the shirt from his body. I moan out when he peeled off the bra. My naked chest in view. My nipples were aroused waiting for him to devour them. He began by trailing kisses on my neck down to my breast. He kissed my nipples hungrily while he mold the other. I raked my fingers through his hair as I kept moaning out arching my back. Damon manifest my breast like they were meant for him to battle on. He slowly trailed down. Each touch made me wet down. He gently slipped off my panties. He stopped and looked at me. “You’re so wet and tight baby” He muffled out. There was no denying how his eyes were filled with lust. In less than a mere second, he dugged his head between my legs. I omit out

    DamonFrom the very first beginning, I know It wasn't a good choice going to Hazel’s house at night. I don't know what has gotten into me. I can stop after the kiss, but something pulled me in. God, just thinking about how my body reacted to her. It made me feel things I've never felt before in a while. Not with Nicole or any other woman. Why the hell did I do that? It wasn't part of the plan. Am I really working with the plan? My inner mind reminded me. I don't know. I'm confused as hell. What do I feel for Hazel? Why am I doing things that are not part of what I initiated to do. My mind was clouded with the thought as I made my way to the office. The best thing I will do is act normally with her. I should focus on my plan rather than doing the other way round. I was met with Mr. Kane who was holding a pile of papers. I have forgotten we’re having meeting. I haven't really gotten time to mentally prepare myself. My thought were all clouded with Hazel. And I hate feeling that way. S

    HazelI didn't have enough strength in me to go grab a lunch. I ordered take out Instead which should arrive any moment. Because I ordered fifteen minutes ago. The bitterness at the pit of my stomach was still there. Damon and the lady must be having a good time together. Judging by how free he was with her. With all the smile and conversation, he must know her that much. I have to keep my feelings at bay and focus on what I'm supposed to be doing. He's making it clear that we're nothing. I felt stupid for allowing him to have a control of my body. To see me naked. Had it been we did the deed, the embarrassment would've been more than this. A knock sounded from the door which made me snapped my eyes towards it my breathing getting hitched on the accord. A weak sigh made its way out of me when Leah's face surfaces. "Miss Hazel, I got your package on my way" She said dropping the pack of pizza on my desk and a cup of milkshake."Thank you Leah" I answered reaching for the cup eager

    HazelLayla helped me and compose the message to Mr. Kane. I asked her to send to him on purpose. I don't want anything to do with him. As much as he doesn't want to associate himself with me. I think ny actions should be justify. After taking some pain killers, I felt much better. I was on for a second round sleep when my phone chimed with message. I forgot to switched off my data. I was swamped with messages from my girls all wishing me quick recovery. They're talking as if I'm sick. The cramps normally drag me down for a day or two and I will be back to normal. There were no more messages apart from theirs. Somehow, some part of me had a slight of hope that I will get a message from him. I know by then Mr. Kane has already notified him of the situation. I dropped the phone with a sigh and pull the duvet over my face. The aroma of food beat through my nostrils as I made my way out of Layla’s room towards the sitting room. My stomach instantly made a sound in hunger. The sleep and

    DamonMy inside was dying to hold her. To feel her warmth on my skin to kiss away her pain. She looked pale and her eyes are somewhat not in good shape. I tried to get her to look at me yet her face was solely focused on what she was eating. This is what you wanted Damon. For things to be the way it is before. The voices in me echo. It was what I wanted but then again, why am I getting worried about it. Especially the cold air that was between us. “Why are you two quite?” Derek’s voice resonate to my eardrums. The two were the only ones doing the talking. Whereas we were both lost in our own thoughts. “Does that bothers you?” I asked back wiping my lips with the table napkin. The look Derek gave me in return was that of a knowing one. I know he's referring to Hazel. He want us to fix whatever we had. In this first place there isn't anything talkless of fixing it. “Excuse me” Our eyes went to Hazel that sat up. With her head still casted down, she made a walk out of the living room.

    HazelThis time around, I kept a normal face as I made my way to the office. I can't get too excited like last time. Damon might give me the same treatment. But then, after what happened last night, I had the hope that things are getting better. It's not like he admit that he has feelings for me but the stage we are currently at, is mutual. I sigh in disappointment when I found the front door locked. Which means he's yet to arrive at the office. The urge to call him grew in me. I held it in knowing It will make me look like someone begging for attention. I was still on that thought when my phone rang from my bag. I found myself letting out a smile. I allow the phone to ring for some time before slidding the accept button. "I see you're thinking about me Miss Dalen" Was the first thing that came out of his lips. I rolled my eyes at his statement dropping my bag on my desk. Even after allowing the phone to ring for sometime. "I don't have time for that. Last time I checked I didn't ca

    “Thank you so much Mr.Leo for giving us your time today. And for the advice” Mels ushered as Leo prepare to leave for the night.“It was my pleasure Miss Mels”“Do call me Mels”“And do call me Leo. The Mr looks weird to me. I will take my leave then. Do have a nice day” And he turned around and left. Mels nudged Laura on the arm who was consciously quite. “What?” She mouthed.“Follow him” She gestured. Laura passed her a look. “We’ll talk later” She added with a wink. Laura grabbed her bag and slid it around her before making her way out.Leo was already halfway from the store. She heaved out a sharp breath before heading towards him. “Seems you’re in a hurry to get back home” She ushered. Leo was startled by her voice. He didn’t expect her to follow him. But then, that warmed up something in him. He didn’t want to go yet but had to. Maybe they could spend some time before he call it a night.“Do I? Maybe because I have long and strong legs” He answered. Laura steadied her bag and wr

    Leo was surprised as much as Laura was. They gave each other a knowing look. Mels nudged Laura on the arm breaking her out of the trance. “You guys know each already” Mels ushered purposely.“You do?” The landlord chirped in. “You know her Mr. Leo?” He questioned again. A smile found its way out of Leo’s lips as he made his way to sit down. The look plastered on her face was quite amusing. I bet she wasn’t expecting to see him anytime soon. Although from his side, he knew they’d definitely meet. For the fact that she was hell bent on him taking responsibility. She has his card after all. Laura gathered herself together and grab her seat which was next to Leo. Mels words began coming back to her. When she said karma is a bitch. Now she believes it is. She won’t say she was expecting to see him again anytime soon. She collected his card only to bluff around. Not because she wants to charge him of anything or such. Leo noticed how Laura was quite. Completely different from how he met

    They kept on dragging pulling it until all the content spilled all over the place. Leo swallowed a lump in his throat. It was the last piece and she allowed it to went to waste. It's better he should get himself another thing instead of wasting his energy on snack that is no longer in existence. He took a step forward and proceed to walk away only for her to stop him. "Excuse me. Where do you think you're going?" Leo foot came to a complete halt. He thought there's no need for more talk after what happened. What does the girl wants again. He's tying his best not to raise his voice on how the snack spilled on his shirt. As a neat person as he is, even a slight bit of dirt irritates him.He didn't turn around though. "You made the mess so you have to take responsibility for it" She had said. Leo didn't fail to let out a smile at her outburst.When he finally turned around, something flashed in her eyes. "Did I hear you say responsibility?" He asked"Yes you're right. You need to take r

    A hiss left his lips for the tenth time as he spared his wrist watch a glance. His driver was supposed to pick him up ten minutes ago, yet more than fifteen minutes has passed by without seeing any sign of him. The fact that he has a meeting to attend within the next forty minutes is making it worst for him. He’s someone that do things diligently without a waste of time. He was taught that by his parents. Talking of his parents, his mother had been calling him Several times making sure he had not forgotten anything. He was in that thinking when his phone vibrate from his hand.

    Laura planned to have a ten to fifteen minutes nap, but ended up falling into a deep slumber. Even when Nanny knocked on the room's door, she played Ignorance. She could barely keep her eyes open. After all, she needed the rest and sleep. It was until she felt she couldn't keep her eyes closed anymore, when she dragged her body off the bed. She ventured her way downstairs where she met with Nanny knitting as usual. while MeIs was busy pacing around the living room with phone glued to her ears. "Who is she busy shouting at?" Laura whispered to Nanny gesturing towards the pissed off Mels. Nanny shrugged in return. She paid no attention to MeIs and her problem. It will only result into headache. Laura plopped her two legs on the center table, folding her arms across her chest as she spared the pacing Mels a glance. It took MeIs more than ten minutes ranting on the phone. Laura wondered whether her cousin doesn't get tired of talking. It was as if MeIs knew what's on Laura’s Mind, she om

She could barely walk past them as her voice was void to their ears. At least that's what she see it as. She settled her middle sized suitcase on the luggage section before proceeding to sit next to an elderly man who was consciously reading through a newspaper. "Hello" She managed to say dropping her handbag atop her thigh. "Hello young lady" The man spared her a small glance together with a smile which she found oddly weird.

    DamonWith the amount of blessings I received within the year, I couldn't be much happier than before. I married the love of my life and the symbol of our love. Our son, Leo. She is my everything.

Our bond has grown more stronger than before. We have received a lot of blessing ever since we have our little son. Hazel is yet to resume work. She got promoted to a higher position. Whereas the company kept on soaring higher and higher more than before. "You're up early baby" I heard her sleeping voice from behind as she snaked her arms around me. "Um.

And you choose to abandon us while I suffer with the baby alone. Thought we are supposed to take care of the baby together" She reste

    EIGHT MONTHHazelI purposely turned a blind eye to Damon as he went on pacing around the room venting his anger about me eating spicy stuffs. I couldn't even care less. I don't know whether the doesn't get tired of talking about one thing. He lecture me, I go on again. And it went on and on again for the past seven months. And nothing went wrong. If not for few days ago when I felt as if I'm going to give me that day due to the throbbing pain I experienced. I have never seen Damon worried the way he was that day. Deep down I was laughing in wickedness while in reality I kept on a calm face. “Are you going to keep marching like a soldier?” I said after a while. He took and fixated his eyes on me. His jaw was clenched. He was clearly losing his shit and I'm behind it. “You-” He inhaled a deep breath. “I don't know the words to use on you honestly. We have been dragging on this for the past seven months. We don't listen to me even for once. You do whatever you like” He exclaimed rak

"Good morning Boss" "Morning Leah. How was your night?""It was fine Boss. He's your schedule for today" She pushed front the paper. I accessed it before speaking up. "Alright. Let's me get going then" I said rising up to a standing position. I spared Hazel's desk a glance before making my way out. I stopped by my father's office. I remembered I have something to discuss with him. "Damon. I was just about to call for you" He said the moment I stepped in. By the side was seated Mr. Kane. It was as if they are having a conversation. "Good morning Mr. Kane" I greeted. The man was surprised at my outburst. "Morning Damon. Hope you had a great night""I did Mr. Kane" I grabbed the other seat facing him before focusing on my father. "Do you have news?" "Yes I have. It's about the investors. I ha
