The sun cast its rays brightly on him, he slowly opened his eyes, following the beam of the light, and he immediately shut his eyes, yawning aloud, he was fully awake to notice another peaceful breathing, he turned his gaze to her, she was gracefully sleeping with the sunlight radiating her beauty the more, already lost in her beauty, he had to leave and it was not going to be good of she wakes up to meet him here.

Gently removing her grip from his waistline he quickly slides into his trousers and wears his shirt, grabbing his keys, he walked out of her world.

The sound from the bolting door, jolted her from her deep sleep, she turned to tighten her grip but the emptiness of the space, hugged her delicate hands, she quickly opened her eyes to see a space, the bed was still warm,

Meaning he had just left not quite long,

"Shit!! What the f...? She sprung up, tying the duvet around her chest, rushing to the door, but the face of the room service greeted her Instead,

"Good morning ma'am, this is room service and I'm here to clean up" the lady smiled, Sydney faked a smile,

"Uhmm... I won't be needing your services for now...? Did you see the young man I signed in with last night?" Her eyes grazed through for answers, as she clutched her duvet.

"Oh? He left not quite long." Confused the lady looked at her, wondering what relationship she had with the handsome duke that just left the premises.

Smiling through gritted teeth, "ok, I'll call when I need you" she banged the door closed before the lady could reply,

Images and flashbacks from the previous night clouded her reasoning,

"Make Love to me!" She heard her moaning and the intense thrust that all took place that night on the same bed she was staring at,

She didn't even get to know, who he was or where she could find him, and just like that, that was how she slept with a mysterious man only familiar with her memories but not physically familiar with them.

She walked into the bathroom, turned on the shower knob, and let the water wash her and keep her sane enough. Memories coming back, the shower sex to the bedroom sex, all in one memory, 

"Snap out of it Sydney!" She cautioned herself out of frustration.

After a long shower she, put on her dress from last night, and like that she left the room, walking out of the room the bar was already empty and virtually everyone had left the clubhouse.

Flagging down a taxi, she decided to go home instead,

"Where to ma'am?" The driver almost in his forties asked,

"Bentley 24th street by yellow duke" she grunts resting her head almost drifting off to sleep before the drive began.

                      ********

Author's POV

The home of the Whites, was merely quiet when the G- wagon jeep drove in, the maidservants and butler stood by the door to welcome their boss, Paxton stepped out of the air-conditioned car as the evening breeze caressed his face, he was exhausted from the day's work and all that was written on his delicate face was all tiredness.

                   Paxton's POV

"You're welcome, Young master." The butler grabbed his suitcase heading upstairs,

"Where's Jaxton? He didn't report to the office throughout today? Did he drop by here at the mansion?" My deep voice echoed, with authority and poise.

The butler looked at the maidservants the look didn't go unnoticed by me, for sure Jaxton had not returned from wherever he went to 

"Where's he?" I requested again.

"He hadn't come home since last night, Young master" the butler replied with his face down, I sigh then turned to the chef,

"Get my dinner ready," I climbed the stairs heading to my room, unbuckling the first button of my suit.

Shortly, I came down after I had freshened up and dressed in my casuals, the dinner was ready,

I sat down to grab it when he walked in,

"Hey bro? I looked at him,

"Where have you been, Jaxton?" I asked, 

"Not now ok" he smirked and walked upstairs, I sigh watching him go upstairs.

I turned to the butler,

"Find out where he went to, who knows he might have caused some trouble there."

The butler stood confused,

"Why Sir?

"To clean up his mess?" I answered and dismissed the butler.

The night was peaceful, I carefully did the work from the office before drifting off to sleep.

 Two days later.............

Arrg! Arrgh!! Arrgh!!!

The alarm screamed jolting me up from my deep sleep, I angrily turned it off, 

Yawning, it's been two days, and I've practically been useless these days since the event from the night at the clubhouse I looked forward to him coming every night to the clubhouse but he never came back, and just like that the mystery man was gone, the worst was I couldn't get that night out of head, I grabbed my phone from the bedside table after it beeped a notification had come in, I swiped down, my eyes popped open, I felt immense anger, the worst was that, the position of a marketer in various companies, all I applied for is yet to give me a feedback. I glance at the day of the eviction, I had less than 2 days to pay off,

The eviction notice again had come in the same way it did the previous week,

I looked out it was evening already, I stood up I was not in the mood to get stuck in here in misery, I grabbed my jacket, and walked out, in anger banging the door,

The clubhouse was still preparing to start for the night, so I went to the bar 

"Two shots of vodka, please" I threw my bag on the counter

"Are you sure? The bartender noticed that I was not in anywhere near a good mood.

"Two shots!" I rolled my eyes, took one of the shots from him, and gulped it down my throat, the hotness from the drink nearly burnt my throat,

"Be careful." The bartender cooed, his eye I could see he wanted something, I handed him a tip, and drank a shot after, and in no time, my vision split and made me feel dizzy.

I grabbed my purse, with a bottle in my hands, coming down I missed a step and stumbled, as I balanced myself, I raised my gaze the figure walked in, 

"Is he the one? I asked myself " "You're so dead, Sydney." 

I looked up again to be sure he was the same person or it's the alcohol playing pranks on my eyes, and this time I was certain this was the face I never imagined I'd see again was standing before me in his glory, I smiled about to hug him in my sober state but what he did next startled me,

"Excuse me, Miss?" I know I was quite drunk but I was sane at the same time. 

"You? Don't you remember me again? My heart shattered into a million pieces, why would I think he would remember me?

He walked past me, brushing his shoulders against me, causing me to fall,

He sat on the chair and ordered a drink,

"One please" I have had enough, if he was going to pretend to not know me then I might as well do something to make him sober of his actions.

    Author's POV She stubbornly reassured herself he was the one and was just playing hard to get as she walked towards the point he took a seat. She reached the spot and leaned on the table which had a bottle of whiskey on it, staring at him as he stared at his phone and didn't spare her a glance. Without breaking her gaze, she walked and took a seat beside him, leaning on his shoulder as he stared at her confusingly, adjusting to the edge of the seat. She moved closer to him, tugging onto his arm, snuggling closer to him. "Get your hands of me, slut!!" He fired angrily. The word "slut", resounded in her ears as she stared at him with disgust. "Doesn't he remember me?, Why's he acting weird?" She asked herself and stubbornly clinged onto his arm again and he shook her arm off his. She rose from the seat and glared daggers at him with disgust before emptying the content of the glass she held on him, turning around and storming away. His gaze fle

    Still, in a confused state, the secretary called out to her,"Miss shepherd? Come take your appointment letter" lost beyond measure, she managed to get herself a stand then walked towards the counter,"You're quite lucky, it wasn't the CEO themselves who interviewed you. They're both quite picky and have different expectations when it comes to hiring a new member." The lady smiled, signed on the paper then gives her to put her signature."They're twins?" She inquired, the lady looked at her,"Haven't you heard of the white brothers? They're the heirs of the White household and both have a share of the company too" her mouth widened agape."Don't tell me you've not heard of them before?" Her brows twitched, looking intently at Sydney,"What? How am I possibly supposed to meet them?" She faked a small laugh before signing her name."See you." The lady walked out just before She realize she didn't get to know her name.Walking out of the building, Paxton stood close to the window, watchi

    He looked deep Into her brown eyes, he smirked,"Are you enjoying this, because I'm not?" She immediately came out of her lost thoughts, batting her eyes repeatedly like a kid, each bat pulling his heartstrings,"Sorry, Sir." She abruptly ended the contact, setting her balance."Next time, stay 2 meters from me," He says." And with that, he walked away without acknowledging her apology,She gasps," How rude." She murmured, watching him walk away in a coltish way,"Is he injured?" Arching her brows, she bent to pick up the files scattered all over the floor,"He's not even that handsome, bet, his twin is quite handsome" she mumbled angrily, storming to the human resources department to photocopy the files."Just my first and I already feel old" she grunts.She finished up with the photocopy and quickly head over to the department,"You're quite slow" the supervisor complained,"If not for that....." She froze Instantly, that was her boss, she was about to curse Infront of her supervis

    Walking into her office, she collapse tiredly on her chair, her system beeped, opening her email, and her eyes widened in shock and surprise, "That son of a devil, " she grabs her phone and swiped to her email, to retrieve the message,Mr. James walked up to her, "Sydney...?" She stood up and walked out,"What's with her again?" He murmured.Seated in his office, Paxton smirked. For the first time, it felt good to be the CEO. Nobody could question his actions, the door jammed close almost startling him, looking up ready to fire who dared barge into his office like that, but his gaze fell on her,"Just like I expected you to, you're 2mins late." He said calmly as if nothing had happened."I do not understand what this email entails, could you please explain more, Sir? She says through gritted teeth, drawing the sir."You are an employee here and have no right to question me."

    This was the question he was curious to know its answer."Why are you both quiet? Paxton's voice ate her up, she turned to Jaxton, her eyes filled with tears, he turned to his brother,"It's bad to eavesdrop on a conversation""I try to mind my business but you two are not helping me do that, your voices got to me from my office," he said calmly, he turned swiftly to Sydney,"I underestimated you. How close are you with my brother for him to know a secret of yours you badly don't want to tell anyone? He was playing mind games and Jaxton was aware of it. He had to step in before it was late"Can you just stop? Paxton turned to him, "And why should I?"Because she was a friend of mine even before she got the job and that has got nothing to do with how she came here. We met here." Paxton doesn't need to know what they are keeping but he was curious and partly jealous that his brother was so close off to this lady,"Yes, we're friends and that's that," she said with finality."Well, th

    CHAPTER 13: SYDNEY'S POV*** Continuous buzzing of the alarm I set on the eve of my first day at work made me stumble out of bed as I dashed towards my bathroom to get prepared for work. After having a warm bath, I stepped out and couldn't settle on a particular fit. I stared at the clothes in my wardrobe and discovered I needed a change as casuals weren't much in it. I settled on a blue skirt with a slit at the front and white chiffon sleeve and a pair of black heels. After putting on the fit, I completed my look with light makeup as usual and detangle my hair with a hot comb, letting it rest on my back without packing it in a ponytail or wrapping in a bun. I picked up my bag and stepped out of my apartment without having breakfast, hurrying to get a taxi with the aim of not falling in the trap of the devil duo. I boarded a taxi which dropped me at the entrance of the company and I paid the driver for his services before he drove off. I took a deep breath

    CHAPTER 14: I reached my office and found it difficult to focus on work. I stood up from my seat and stepped out of the office, walking towards a particular direction I didn't know where it led. I reached the end and took another turn and in the next ten minutes after taking several routes, I reached the rooftops where I sat down and bawled my eyes out. I felt thousands of daggers, piercing through my heart as the scene replayed in my mind as tears slid down my cheeks, wetting my skirt. I remained like that for over an hour till realization hit me. "Why am I hurting myself because of him?" I questioned myself. "Why am I feeling attached to him?" I continued. "Do I even have the right to be angry?" I interrogated myself inwardly, trying to convince myself that all we had or shared was nothing but a one night stand. I stood up and returned to the office and realized my makeup was ruined and anyone will be able to notice I cried and I immediately dashed into

    Chapter 120Sydney was so lost staring into his eyes with shock and Confusion that she didn't realize when he got so close to her that she could even feel his breath and listen to his heart beating hard against his chest. Sydney pulled her face away from him immediately. "No, this is too good to be true," she whispered to herself. He thought that he had some hidden agenda that he was trying to hide from her and trap her into it before she was going to realize it. "He thinks I am such a dumbass," she thought in her head. "I will have to run away immediately before he begins to unveil his true reason for coming here," she said to herself. She got set immediately. She calculated when she was going to run away from him in her head. "On a one, two three, go.." she finalized and tried to run but he caught her in the air. She tried hard to break free from her strong grip but he held her so tightly that her skin cells could hardly breathe.She stared into his eyes and he stared back into

    Chapter 119 With every single step that he took, his heart raced ten times faster and he was gasping for breath like someone that just finished a race. *Signs*After much inquiry, Paxton discovered that Sydney was now working as a waitress in one of the restaurants. "What should I do now," he said to him in his car, hitting his hands on the story. "Go to her house or her workplace," he thought again. But then, a thought crossed his mind that answered all his questions. "Would you want a public embarrassment?" A voice rang in his head. Paxton thought about his for some time and decided that it would be preferable to go to her house. He could feel his heart beating hard against his chest as though it was going to burst through as he drove his car to her house. When he got there, the door was bolted just as he had expected. "I will just have to wait for her here," he said to himself as another long line of laughter escaped from his mouth.Meanwhile, Sydney was just returning from w

    CHAPTER 118Chapter 118Jaxton stared into his eyes with a racing heart, still contemplating if what he was going to say would get him angry or not. Then he asked him the question first. "His anything the matter?" Paxton inquired noticing that Jaxton was a little bit unsettled. Seeing this as the perfect opportunity, Jaxton dropped down to the ground and picked up the photo of Sydney on the floor."It's about her," Jaxton returned showing the photo to him but immediately he saw her photo, his eyes shit back into their sockets in sudden grief and he shook his head side by side. "No, I don't want to talk about her. Not now, not ever," Paxton returned. Jaxton's heart sank with disappointment but he wasn't just going to give up like that, he was going to press until he agreed. "But," he tried to say but Paxton would not listen to a single word that he had to say. "No buts," he returned. "I only told you that I don't want to talk about her," he ended. But as Paxton already knew, Jaxto

Hearts pounded, the tension rose, arrangements were being made and even calls for celebration.That morning, Jaxton got dressed as soon as he could into his White suit worth over ten thousand dollars. He had to present himself well to the stakeholders as the next CEO of the company in place of his father. He was so sure that his brother Paxton was unaware of whatever was around and he was going to take him unaware. A dark smile hovered on his face as he thought about taking over the company. "I can't even imagine the look on his face with it would be announced to him," he thought in his head as a dark laughter escaped from his mouth."And once I get this position, I will be able to get Sydney back," he said to himself"I can't wait to see that look on his face when Paxton would be eventually dismissed as the CEO.When he got to the venue for the event, most of the stakeholders were already seated.

    CHAPTER 116 Paxton stared into the stakeholder's eyes as cold shivers ran down his spine and streams of sweat were already forming at the corner of his eyes. "I can't believe you, my twin brother can't betray me this way after all we had gone through together," he returned with his heart beating hard against his chest as though it was going to burst through. "And why should I be lying to you" the stallholder returned without a trace of Deciet in his his eyes. Paxton Didn't know who to trust or whom to believe, him or my blood brother. "I can show you proof of it," he returned.Paxton watched him as he brought out his phone from his pocket and showed the message that he had gotten from Jaxton and he felt as though he had been trust a dagger right in the heart. "What are you going to do now?" The stallholder inquired. Paxton felt betrayed and he could feel his anger rising so badly that he had to clutch his hands to control my rising anger.

    Chapter 115Paxton POV"I swear boss, I would find a means to attach more finances to the already dilapidated market. Just give me time." The words coming out from Justin, the marketing directors were utterly irritating and even propelled my already sour mood."You had one week Justin, one week to make things right. We both know it was your fault that the stock dropped. You were too negligent, too lazy to take the risks that I so desire from you." Despite his stupidity, I tried my best to remain calm, as emotions were only meant to be expressed by the weak."Boss, please give me one more week. I swear to you, one more week and we would be back on top again. One more fucking week boss." I had his termination letter waiting."Take that brown envelope and get the fuck out of my office." I instructed. Slowly I observed his hesitation, before eventually walking towards the brown envelope. Once Justin unveiled the content of the envelope, he dropped to his knees begging."You don't want me

    Chapter 114"Feelings? The night at Hawaii? If anyone had told me that something had happened between you both in Hawaii, I would have slit such a person's throat off." Jaxton had obviously eavsdropped on our conversation. I looked around to see Paxton was up on his feet and the look of guilt was expressed in his countenance."I knew something was off about selecting Sydney to go with you to Hawaii. Heck I was the stupid one. I should have realized right on time that you both had a thing going on." "Jaxton." He shushed me up as as I tried to speak."You do not speak when I am talking to my brother." His words were filled with venom and his eyes held so much rage in them. This was the dangerous version of Jaxton, that I never thought would exist."So tell me brother, how was it? Was it intense? I bet you enjoyed her sucking down your dick and going all the way to your nutsack." Jaxton playing mind games was seriously getting to not only Paxton but myself."Don't speak about her in su

    Chapter 113Sydney POV.Several works to be completed in the office today, but my mind wasn't focused. The memories of the night in Hawaii kept replaying in my head. While the night was fun filled; from my perspective, I knew above everything that it had implications. Regardless of the fact that Paxton may have dropped his unruly attitude towards me, I still can't get over the fact that Jaxton would blow the roof off with his rage, when he hears of my sexual adventure with his brother. The situation was complicated and one that I wish above everything never to happen. While filling up some of the loopholes, left in the documents, the telephone buzzed."Hello?" "My office, now." Paxton's deep voice came through the other side. My heart rate increased and anxiety crept through my skin, wondering what he would think of our adventures. None of us had been able to have a meaningful conversation about it and while it could mean nothing to him, it meant everything to me.Staring at the i

As the night went on, things got more heated between them and soon enough they were making out. It felt right and natural at the moment. Before they knew it, they were in Paxton’s bedroom and things escalated quickly. They both wanted it, and they were soon having sex. Even though they were both consenting adults, Sydney felt a twinge of regret afterwards. She hadn't expected things to move so fast and wasn't sure if she was ready for the complexities that come with a relationship. Paxton was just as confused. He had feelings for her, but he also knew they were new to each other and the enormity of what had just happened was starting to sink in. They both opted to take a step back and try to process everything that had happened. In the end, th
