Bite Me, Mr. CEO Chapter 21
My heart was thumping in my chest and anxiety shook my insides. I stared at the picture on the phone for a few more seconds and then swallowed. This was not good. This was definitely not good. I placed the phone on the bed and proceeded to change what I was wearing into something presentable to wear to go to the station. I mean, I had my doubts about going to the police at first but now, I really had no real choice. That crazy lady was watching me, she had proven that. I was not safe. My dad and grandmom were not safe. And after what she had told me in the car that night, I could not stop the fear from choking me. I was literally shaking. She had just seen me with Bradley and showed me that she did by sending that picture. That was so creepy and caused my spine to tingle. The safest thing I could do was to get my behind at the station and try to get all this under control. And there was no way I was going to leave my dad here after seeing that text. After changing, I grabbed my ph

I went home in a very happy mood because I had just successfully negotiated a deal with a client. But just as I entered through the door, I saw high heels that did not belong to me on the hardwood floor. I headed for the bedroom and heard strange and ambiguous sounds. With curiosity filling my senses, I opened the bedroom door and saw an image that broke my heart.I saw the love of my life having sex with another woman. Their sounds of pleasure filled the room, and pain tugged at my heart. My throat was dry and adrenaline rushed through my veins.They could not see me yet and I just stood at the door and watched them. My chest rose up and down in a fast motion and I could feel tears rapidly building in my eyes. It felt like my soul was being slowly ripped out of my body each time he thrust into her. A small sound escaped my mouth as I began to sob and the woman finally noticed me at the door. I immediately recognized her, and I knew she recognized me too. It was my best friend, Nor
Bite Me, Mr. CEO Chapter 2
I was raised by my grandmother because I had no choice. My dad was a deadbeat father and left my mom and me when I was only nine. I can still remember that day like it was yesterday. What hurt me more is that he promised me that he would come home later that night and bring me a doll; a doll that I had wanted for the longest. I guess he lied because I am now a twenty-five-year-old woman and I’m still waiting for that doll.A year later, my mom died of chronic depression. She had stopped taking care of herself and even went days without eating. Of course, she made us believe that she was eating but we would always find her food in the trash the next day. We took her to therapy but that lasted for only about a day. She threatened that if we made her go back there that she would hurt herself; so we listened. When she died, I felt so alone. She died in her room clutching onto a pillow that my dad had given her for their anniversary a year before.After she was gone, I had to move to Sea

My heart pounded so hard in my chest that it felt like I was about to blackout. My eyes widened and I watched the CEO in horror. A lady was in the bathroom with him and she was dressed in a uniform, which led me to believe that she was working for the hotel; maybe as a help.Bradley was sucking on the neck of the young lady so nonchalantly that if I wasn’t scared out of my mind right now, I would have thrown up. He removed his mouth from the girl’s neck and she dropped to the floor with a thud.“Please…please,” I began to sob, afraid that he was going to hurt me. The CEO made a move that caused me to scream so loud that my throat hurt. I tried to flee away but he was right behind me before I could even blink.“Lisa, I can explain.” He blocked the exit. “Give me a chance to explain, please.”I glanced at the girl on the floor and noticed that she was breathing. She was alive! But that still did not change the fact that I was caged in the bathroom with whatever Bradley was!“Please don’

“You’re not dreaming, Lisa. Make your choice.” Bradley’s voice was smooth and almost perfect. “To live, or to die?”I had to decide either to die or to be a vampire. I remembered that I swore to myself to never be like my parents and run away from my problems but to always find a solution because there always was even if that solution was not pretty. This was the solution. Choosing death would be the cowards’ way out. And I was not a coward. I was not like my parents!I exhaled shakily and then bravely walked to him slowly. When I reached him, I held his hand and he suddenly pulled me into his arms. My breath hitched and I strengthened my hold on his hand.Being so close to him filled me with fear. The image of him feeding on the girl that was now on the floor lingered in my mind. “Can we please get this over with?” “Gladly,” Bradley chuckled, and then he brought his wrist slowly to my mouth. I began to breathe faster and my thirst for blood was now unbearable, especially considerin
Bite Me, Mr. CEO Chapter 5
After spending almost the whole day in the hotel room eating ice cream, sobbing, and watching soap operas on the small flat-screen TV, I finally checked out of the hotel room and headed for the bar where I met the CEO the day before.My car was in good condition and nothing was missing from it. I unlocked it and got in. I was still new to this vampire thing and knew that I had to avoid sunlight for the time being. I did not care what Bradley said, I was not about to take my chance on being burned to ashes. Even if that was just overexaggerated gibberish that was played out in films. The sun had already set and I felt a weird increase in my senses. It felt like everything around me was louder and bolder.The colors I saw everywhere looked like they popped more. Normally, I had a terrible sense of smell, but now it was different. I could even smell the burger a guy across the road had in his hands as he ate it in his closed car.This seemed cool but also freaked me out. I just needed

Mark took the TV remote and turned the news off. He took in a deep breath and let it out slowly. “Lisa, I know you’re pissed at me and you have every right to be, but please…let’s think this through.”“Are you seriously going to let all those guests show up tomorrow and just stay home?” He asked me, and I folded my arms on my chest.“Well, you do have a point. Why let all those people suffer for your mistake? I know what we’re going to do.” I told him and he smiled, even though my heart ached. Just seeing Mark made me feel like I was drowning with no one to help me. I felt awful.“What do you suggest.” He gulped and then folded his hands on his lap as he stared at me. “We could push the wedding date until you and I work out our issues. What about that?” I stared at him incredulously. He seriously thought that he was going to screw my best friend and just say sorry to make it all go away? You can’t put a bandaid on a severed leg!I took my phone out of my bag and headed for the window
Bite Me, Mr. CEO Chapter 7
I stared at my boss, waiting for him to tell me he was joking but he did not. “You have to be kidding, I’m COO of Eternity Limited?” “Hell, yeah!” My boss laughed cheerily and I joined him. “How did that even happen? I don’t think I’m even qualified.” “Oh, shut up. You and I know that you are beyond qualified. To be honest, I had planned to give you that corner office as a gift but the CEO had different and better plans. So congratulations!” He smiled. A lot of the employees walked to me and congratulated me and after half an hour, I was up in my office packing my things up with the help of my boss.“You know you don’t have to help me do this, right?” I chuckled as I placed the small picture frames on my desk into the box. “I wouldn’t miss this for the world. Lisa, I have always admired you. You are hardworking, humble, and respectful. I confess that I don’t always speak to you all in the calmest manner here at work, but it’s all because I want you all to be better people.” My bo

I clutched the phone and tears built in my eyes. “Bradley, I just want you to stay the hell from me. I–I can’t deal with all this. I really can’t.”“Lisa, I am lost right now. Do you want me to come over?”“No,” I breathed the word out. “What part of stay away from me don’t you get?” I raised my voice a bit. “Is this–is this because of the whole vampire thing? You have to tell me because I’m going crazy here.” I could hear the stress in his voice. And the sound of a car engine starting was evident in the background. He was probably getting ready to come over to my house. “It’s not because of that. I was warned to stay away from you. And this time, my grandmom was involved in the madness. And you know what? I have been through too much, I can’t deal with this drama.” “I’m coming over…” He said in a firm tone. It was clear that he was not giving up. If this were in any other situation, I would have been very flattered but this was different. This involved the life of my grandmom and

I paced around the hallway slowly with the phone to my ear until I finally stopped. I let out a small sigh. “Okay.” “What do you mean by okay?” I could hear the hope in Mark’s voice. I breathed out shakily. “Okay as in I think I’m ready to forgive you.” A small smile grew on my face as I heard him cheer on the other end of the phone. He sounded like a kid on Christmas morning.“Oh my god, Lisa. I swear to you that I would be the perfect man! I would never let you feel the pain that I caused you, not ever again!” I nodded slowly as if he could see me. “Okay, sounds good. But let’s take it slow, alright?”“Of course! We can go at a turtle pace if you’d like, I’m fully prepared!” He replied and I laughed genuinely. Telling him that I forgave him made me feel a sense of relief. It was like a heavy load had been taken off my shoulders. “That’s fine with me.” I chuckled. “I would call you back and let you know soon when I’m ready to have you back at the house.” I used my other hand to b

It was the next morning and I was still in bed. Even though I went to bed early, I still felt tired. The rays of the sun were beaming through my curtains, creating shadows on the wall. The birds were chirping and the light wind coming through the window felt slightly cold yet satisfying.The guestroom was some distance away from the kitchen but I could smell that breakfast was being made. As I said before, my dad was a really good cook so I was in a way excited to see what he was whipping up.I sighed as I removed the duvet from my body and got off the bed. I yawned and then headed for the bathroom that was in the room. When I looked at my reflection in the mirror, I chuckled. I looked like a zombie minus the blood and cuts. My hair was a mess, my eyes were weary, and the color was drained from my face. What I needed was a cold shower to wake me the hell up while bringing me back to reality.My night was filled with nightmares and discomfort. I could not find sleep until it was three

I was sure that it was my Uber. The app on my phone showed the car’s location; that it was right in front of me. I opened the door of the car and I got into the back. The AC lightly bathed me when I closed the door and relaxed in the backseat.“Hi,” I greeted the driver, but he did not respond. The car jerked forward gently as it began to move. I was glad that I listened to Mark’s advice instead of overthinking and trying to get my car to work when it was getting later.I did not make it a big deal that the driver ignored me, I simply brushed it off and took out my phone. I texted Mark that I was in my uber and heading home already. I gave my address to the driver and he only nodded. He was wearing a baseball cap but I could see a dash of his blonde hair from behind. He did not look behind and so I did not get a glimpse of his face. The car smelt new and no music played from the speakers. The car was modern and from the interior, looked very expensive.The screen of my phone suddenl

A few hours later, I was able to do all the work that I needed to do for the day. Bradley made sure that I got three cans of the blood drink and I made sure to down two. I was packed and felt good. Not just because I fed, but also because I had had a productive day.Evening hours were rushing and the yellow and golden brilliance from the setting sun shone in my corner office. The floor-to-ceiling windows made it even more surreal. It was like I was in a movie. It was beautiful.The city’s skyline looked breathtaking and the view plus the stunning sunset seemed to reward me for all the office work that I did today. I smiled happily and took out my phone from my handbag. I dialed a familiar number and in three rings, the person answered. “Lisa! Baby, is everything alright? You just visited me yesterday, I did not expect a call from you until tomorrow.” She chuckled, and I could not help but smile warmly as if she could see me. It was my granny. Her voice was like a cool summer breeze.

I walked to my desk and sat behind it in the chair. Bradley and my former boss were standing with serious expressions on their faces. If I told you that I was not nervous or worried then I would be lying to you.“Okay, I’m listening.” I placed my handbag on the shiny wooden desk. My boss unbuttoned his jacket and sat in one of the chairs in front of my desk and Bradley did the same. “Bradley, would you like me to?” The CEO shook his head slowly and then cleared his throat. He finally looked me in the eyes for the first time since I walked into the office. “I have a major league client that I want to sign for the company. Signing this woman means a whole lot to me and to Powerhouse Designs.” He glanced at my boss.“Yes. As you know, Lisa, Bradley has turned over multiple projects to our company thanks to you. This is a huge win for us, for you, and for Mr. Specter because we are going to do a fantastic job. But a few of the projects were halted due to insufficient funds.” I listened

I downed the last of my drink and placed the wine glass on the coffee table. I was tempted to get more wine but I pushed against the urge. The amount of alcohol in my system right now was tolerable, adding more would not do either me or my father good. “Look, Mr. Morgan…” I began, and he frowned. “Dad. Call me dad, Lisa.” He corrected me, and I rolled my eyes. I was not going to do that until I was ready again. The only reason I even called him dad when I saw him at the door was that I was shocked and taken by surprise.“Yeah, that’s not going to happen.” I chuckled dryly. “At least for now.” “Sure…” He replied in a breathy way and kept his eyes on me. “Okay, you know what? This week has been a rollercoaster of emotions for me, especially sad ones. And I am honestly weary and drained. I have so much anger in me and I am just tired of being angry and hurt.” I explained to him in a very firm and calm tone. “As much as I would love to show you how much I hate you for what you did to

My eyes fluttered open and I realized that I was on the floor. My back slightly ached and my eyes burned a bit. I felt really crappy physically, mentally, and emotionally. I sat up and ran my hand through my messy morning hair.It was in the morning and the birds chirped away. The sun was beaming through my thin window curtains and I could see the mess that I made last night: the shattered vase on the floor. I rose to my feet and memories of the night rushed into my mind, causing a deep sadness to wash over me. I had kicked Nora out of the house, but most importantly, I had kicked Mark out. I did not regret my decision though. I would have done that sometime in the near future anyway, but it just felt so real now. Everything felt more real that Mark was not here. His cheating on me, me breaking off the engagement and calling off the wedding, me cutting him off from my life; it all felt freaking real now, and I did not know what to do with that feeling. I stared at the floor as I c
