Chapter Eight Desiree “Girl you seem pretty made up today, better than last night!” Lois noticed as we got dressed and headed for work. “Yeah I guess, I just needed a shower that's all” I replied, almost cold. I wasn't mad at her, I just needed that attitude to be able to put up with Killian, my bone of contention, and he is going to be there for a while. I just hope he gets tired of me sooner so I could just vanish, after all vanishing was my thing. “Hey, forget all I said yesterday, if you want to quit this, I am fully in support of it, no one wants to be taken as cheap”. Lois pulled me softly by my arms. She suddenly felt like my mom at that moment. Though Lois can be so unserious, I need a little bit of unseriousness in my life, life is complicated for me to be serious all the time. I sighed. “I have no option now, Lois at least I could use the money for my mom's surgery then maybe find something to do with the rest”. I explained to her. Not to forget that my secret had
Chapter Nine Killian The morning was quite sunny and I decided to wear long dark pants with a bold hunter green turtle neck t-shirt, I pulled my dark coat from the rack and headed out. “You are three minutes late” I called out to my driver who was barely running late. “They had some construction going on, on the highway, so I took a longer route” He explained calmly. The two external people apart from my kid sister that were so confident to talk to me were my financial advisor and Oliver my driver. I love confident people, they put me on edge. “Hmm” .. I replied. The ride as usual was silent, I already had Alex waiting for me at work, I had a few things to check out at the office and sometimes I go to the office to catch some people lacking at their work. “Are we still heading for the hotel this evening sir?” Oliver asked genuinely, I had never told him we were going there again, but I love when people catch up real fast. He is smart, I love it. “Yes…. I have some busines
Chapter Ten Killian I wanted to just go in here and hold her, but I decided to keep my cool. I'm still Killian and this young woman wouldn't put me out of character. “Oh I'm sorry, I…. She apologised as she began to struggle to lay down her hair. I walked up to her gently, while she still struggled, I pulled her body towards me so that our bodies are now undoubtedly touching each other. I grabbed her hands softly but firmly from her hair, and I laid her hair down for her. The scent of her shampoo hit me and I wasn't prepared for it. Vanilla!!!! Now her back was in contact with my chest, while my talk figure hovered above her short height. I took a closer look at her choice of dressing. I bent low enough to her ear and I could hear her heartbeat rising like it was about to explode, but I kept mine in sync. “Delicate dressing you have there” I whispered to her making sure my lips tickled her ear a little, she froze at my action. She seemed quite ready and not ready so I r
Chapter Eleven Desiree “Open your eyes” my eyes flew open immediately landing on Lois face. “Geez girl you seem to have woken up from a very bad dream” Lois whined, taking her spot on the bedding. “What happened”?? I held my head, it was banging aggressively. “I should be asking you that, common given the tea now!!” I closed my eyes for a moment to fully remember how I got on and hotel bed. “Oh nooooo” I cried burying my face back in the sheets in shame as I remembered everything that had happened the previous night. “Girllll I get it, but you don't have to be embarrassed, I know from that look that it was steam yyy!” She giggled.. I looked around ignoring Lois's commentary and my sight caught a little white envelope on the table. I yanked it open. “No wayyy” I gasped. “What!” Lois grabbed the envelope from me and her face went cold. “There's no way this is real,” I exclaimed again. “This guy keeps to his word , I like it, you certainly got paid for real”. “Lois we didn
Chapter Twelve Killian “Have they consented to my offer?” I asked Quinn while I fixated my eyes on my laptop. “They have declined sir”! “Okay” I concluded. “What do you plan on doing sir?” “Leave that to me Quinn” She took her leave and I was left alone. I took another look at the laptop and continued selecting a few of the dresses I would love for Desiree to try on. She is a size 8 with a delicate shape, and I just felt it would be a pleasure to see her try on a few dresses. After-all , I spend my money on her. “Oh ma'am, good day, how can I help you?” Alex's voice echoed through the office. Who was he talking to???? As if reading my mind he walked up to my desk and wrote down a name on a piece of paper. Desiree. My heart skipped a beat at the thought of her. “He is not available now…. I signalled for him to add that I was meeting with her tonight. “...but be sure to know that he would love to meet up with you tonight, same time” and he hung up. “Your choice of wo
Chapter Thirteen Killian “I- I'm so sorry I just lost track of time” Her whole body language told me it wasn't my presence that was the problem, I stood up from where I was seated on the bedding. She flinched. I was taken aback by her reaction to me just standing up. I hate to say this, but I can't seem to ignore the fact that the lady standing in front of me was scared to death. “Are you okay?” She nodded seven different ways to tell me “I'm unsure, I'm confused and scared”!! I touched her face slightly and could feel her whole body tense up. “I don't bite, you know that!” I assured her. “Let's get it over with Killian, I have work tomorrow” She started to move towards the bed, but I grabbed her back pulling on her softly. “Did I do something wrong?”... “Is it the sex you want, here I am giving it to you, please let's get it over with” This time her voice held pain and I couldn't explain what was going on inside of me, but I felt my heart shatter by a thousand pieces. W
Chapter Fourteen Desiree I woke up in the arms of the man I despised the most. Killian Donovan. The only thing I didn’t despise was his warmth. I slowly sneaked out of bed. I opened up my eyes fully and my eyes landed on a beautiful mess. The man beside me was a beautiful mess. His hair. Dangled playful across his face and his face was so relaxed, baby-like but yet had the definition of masculinity. He even looked hotter than when he was awake. I found myself gushing over how light his breathing is in sleep. My eyes trailed down to his bare chest, observing his little nipples that just stood there looking at me. I trailed his tattoos with my fingers and I know he was supposed to feel it, but my body was getting the tingles instead. I pulled myself away from my trance, got out of bed and began to find my things. I looked around the room and the room was a MESS, my cheeks burned red while I reminisced about the previous night. I began to pick up stuff silently, and i
Chapter Fifteen Killian “We are going downstairs together, walking hand in hand, whattt?” Desiree's worry to be seen with me was starting to get a hold of me. “What rules says we can't?” She looked at me like I just grew another head. “Oh maybe the rule that says “you are going to lose your job if… “Miss, you are forgetting that I own this company” I reminded.. “Not yet, everyone knows they haven't come to an agreement yet, until then, my boss owns me”. That…that word own…..does she know that… “Hey, Desiree, I own you, I pay you, to please me, your boss or whoever doesn't have access to you, Look at me ... .You are mine…. “Till you tire of me, I can't be yours forever Donovan, get that, I'm done here” she spins into the closet out of sight. Why did her words hurt so bad?? I can't be yours forever??? That hurts.. But it's the truth, why does the truth hurt?? My heart tightened up and almost couldn't breathe. Few seconds later she was out fully dressed in her casual wea
