Chapter Forty- SevenKillian I sat in the car and watched as Sylvester dropped her off at home. I had arrived at her house earlier to pick her up. Alex already started his off which was for a week.He needed it and besides he has been such a great employee.I knew the moment I heard the pitch of her voice on the phone that she was lying to me about where she was There was nothing I could do to change her mind, especially if Sylvester had told her a lot of things about me.Trust me I fight the urge to get out of my car and punch Sylvester to a point where he starts to crave for different intercontinental dishes.There was a moment where he was about to touch her but she stepped back.It was very clear that Desiree wasn't comfortable with him either, but she didn't trust me too fully and I didn't expect her to.She turned around and went to her apartment.I get why she lied to me. Sylvester was very good at painting a bad picture of people. Funny how he couldn't paint one good one for
Chapter Forty- EightDesireeI was feeling Like a colour palette but I wanted to do purple so badly, and I didn't want a bold purple statement.So I decided to go for lilac, a much lighter shade of purple. I sprayed on some perfume which has always been my signature.Almost everywhere I went I got stopped by people just because they wished to know my perfume combination and I was not even ready to gate keep.I ran my hair through the curls I had made earlier before going to the interview, no I would like to call it a destructive road to seduction!!And I had been trying so hard not to think about all the things that took place with Sylvester.Where do I even begin???I knew from the way they greeted him with so much regard, I knew something was definitely up.who would have thought he was the one??I grabbed everything I needed into a white bag which I already knew was going to be a match to my dress.The thing about lilacs, as difficult it is to combine with other colours, white wil
Chapter Forty- NineDesiree“Who doesn't love lobsters?” I laughed at the fact that Killian was just telling me how much he hated lobsters.“I don't know, they look really creepy and the eyes oh my goodness!” I was going to make him try it regardless.“One lobster pack please, we are taking it home, so please pack it up for us, thank you!” I addressed the waitress as she left to pack our order.“I love it when you say home!” Killian smirked.“Don't get ahead of yourself, you are still trying that lobster if you like it or not!” I reminded him.“Say it again!”.“Say what Again?” I asked taking a sip of my wine.The hotel Killian brought us to was so luxurious that I feared for his pocket but oh no I knew he was more than capable of taking care of the bills.“What, you said to the waitress about us taking our orders where???I laughed knowing exactly what he meant.“One lobster pack please, we are taking it home!” I giggled “Gosh , the way you say home makes me want to go home right
Chapter FiftyDesiree“Micheal!” I called out.I couldn't believe my eyes, how was he in Chicago???I noticed Killian seems quite unbothered which was concerning.Micheal walked up to where we were seated and greeted.“This is such a surprise!” Micheal exclaimed.“Oh my goodness Micheal this is a surprise indeed!” I stood up and pulled him into a hug .More like a side hug!!Killian was at this time concerned because I noticed he gripped his knife pretty too hard.“Hi” Michael greeted Killian .“Hi Michael!” Killian replied downing his glass of wine .I decided to take the initiative of introducing them to each other.“Killian this is Michael my old time friend and Micheal this is…“I'm Killian, her boyfriend!”What???Michael's face lit up immediately.“I'm so happy for you Desiree, you two sure do look good together, he's so lucky to have you!” Killian's head shot up immediately, his jaws tensed up.“Yeah she is!” Killian voiced.I didn't know what was happening but it definitely w
Chapter Fifty-OneKillianI don't know which one was my favourite part; looking at her beautiful face when she was asleep or teasing her and seeing her turn red…I watched as she slept on my chest, my breathing regulating with hers.I wish I could tell her how Beautiful she is even in her dreams. I planted a soft kiss on her lips as she slept. I just couldn't get enough of her.My eyes fell on the pendant around her neck, it suits her so well and I knew I made the right choice.“When did you get your tattoos?” Desiree curiously asked as her hands lingered on my tattoos, as always.“I got this one on my arm when I was 12!”.Her eyes shot up in shock..“Twelve?” “Was I too young or was I too old for one?”“And your parents allowed you?” “I'm just pulling your legs. I got it on my 30th birthday!” She sighed in relief and continued tracing the lines in my tattoo.“What about the second one? On your lower back??” She asked.“Do you really want to know?” “Yes I do!”..“I got it after I
Chapter Fifty-TwoDesiree…My nose caught something in the air as I woke up from my sleep. I looked at my alarm and noticed that I had overslept, but the alarm was turned off. I guessed Killian must have turned it off.But whatever was going on my nose couldn't resist the sweet smell that was in the air. I got off bed and disappeared into the bathroom to freshen up I looked like a hot mess, it was rare for my messy morning self to be hot in the morning, but I kept taking glances back at myself in the mirror making sure I was seeing right.Hot showers are the best but I had just been craving cold showers more for a while. I ran the shower and drenched myself.After twenty minutes in the shower I headed out to get dressed and I decided to put on something casual.As I got out from my room I could hear some movements in the kitchen I just knew already killian was the one in the kitchen There were a billion things I didn't know about Killian I was sure of that,!!“Tell me one more thin
Chapter Fifty - ThreeKillianThere was honestly nothing that was fascinating about that Micheal dude, and for no reason he just icks me, no matter how much I thought about it ..She was eventually fine with the calm and I was already serving the food.“That was ..“Stop it, you don't owe me any of that, he's your friend I get it!” I stopped her as she was about to explain her phone calls to me.I knew he was her friend and I knew so well she was going to keep it at that …It was just the Micheal dude that I didn't trust at all..“Why?” She asked me…“Because I trust you!” I replied and kissed her forehead.I resumed serving the dishes and putting the rest in the freezer…“Let me help with this!” She offered and carried the leftovers into the freezer..“You can take some home. I can't eat all of these even in a week!” She chucked.“I made them for you, not me!”“Oh so you prefer takeouts to cooking?” “I don't eat anything that isn't prepared by me!” I responded…I knew what was comin
Chapter Fifty-FourDesiree“Tell me you didn't tell him already?” Lois warned through the phone as I filled her in on the little time I and Killian spent together.“No I didn't, besides I don't think he feels the same way!”It had been two days since Killian left and I had never missed him more. He didn't sleep another night that day. He made the meal we made. He had work and he kept fantasising about his work and how much he needed to be there.I mean it was a Monday morning to behoñd and there I was seated and chatting with my bestie.“What makes you think so?” Lois was on off for a whole week and she had decided to spend the whole week with me.“He's not saying anything, I mean he acts like it but he hasn't told me anything yet he only teases me about him taking me to meet his parents!”. I explained taking another scoop of the homemade ice cream Killian made for me before he left“Maybe he's just taking his time, you said he acted a certain way when you asked him about his first
