“I don't know how to be gentle.I get rough sometimes,”He whispered in my ear, nibbling on my earlobe and I gulped. “You're an angel.Angels are supposed to be handled with utmost care.Angels are supposed to be clean and pure.They’re not supposed to get involved with a sinner like me.”His warm breath fanned my already flushed cheeks, sending a shiver down my spine. “Maybe I'm a fallen angel.I don't mind being tainted.”The corner of my lips curved into a smirk,”What about you show me how rough you can get?I like it rough sometimes...” “Damn it!Don't forget you asked for it.”The corner of his lips curved into a wicked smile… _________________ When Angelina found out that her best friend and husband of four years had betrayed her.She was heartbroken and decided to drown her sorrow in alcohol.

View MoreXAVIERI followed Kante's eyes and that is when I realised he was talking about Angelina. She was talking to a young man, moving her hands in the air as though she was explaining something to him and she looked so passionate about whatever she was talking about.I turned to look at Kante who had an evil smile on his lips as though that was the funniest joke of the year.“ Don't you even think about it!” I said through gritted teeth, clenching my hand into a ball. The bastard knew how to trigger that emotion in me. He knew what to say to make the beast that was buried inside me come to the surface.Kante and I know each other too well because we used to be business partners in Mafia business. However,things didn't go well and we decided to cut our ties, agreeing that no one would ever get into each other's business.Since I'm a man of my words. I didn't care where Kante went or what the hell he has been doing with his life all this time. I respected the partnership that we shared even
AUTHOR’S POVXavier looked at Angelina with gentle eyes, an unexplainable feeling invaded his heart which he hadn’t felt in a very long time. For so long, Xavier's heart had turned cold but whenever he looked at the innocent girl,he couldn't help but allow himself to feel how it felt to be human again. It was like he didn't have control over his emotions whenever he was around her and that made him mad at himself sometimes.Angelina looked so innocent and for some unknown reason,it made the Mafia Don feel as though it wasn't right to be around her or touch even a strand of her hair.It’s true Xavier can handle anything. However, sometimes it's exhausting because he's only human. He was mad earlier on the phone because Diego called and informed him that one of his men had fucked up the shipment.The mafia don was so pissed off because he invested a lot of capital and time to make sure that everything will be okay but…one of his men sided
ANGELINA“ Wow,this fish actually tastes delicious.” I nodded,taking another big bite and closed my eyes to savour the taste.“ Remember you didn't catch anything,” Xavier joked and I pouted, making a funny face and he couldn't hold back the smile on his face. We were at the shore of the ocean, sitting around the fireplace as we talked about random stuff.Xavier and I decided to cook the fish that we caught in the ocean for dinner,roasting it at the fireplace and eating it with sauce. I have to admit that it was fun spending time with Xavier, it was never a boring moment to be around him.There was something about him that made me feel comfortable around him. We strolled at the shores of the ocean as we talked about the company and some random stuff. We laughed,joked and fished, as we enjoyed the sunset.I couldn't remember the last time that I had so much fun because I had lost track of time.“ Thank you for today.” My lips curved into a smile. For some unknown reason,I felt the need
XAVIER The smirk on my face broadened as I watched Angelina ponder about what I had just told her.I found her reaction cute.Heaving a deep sigh,she looked at me. “Do I even have a choice?”She asked with a pout and I chuckled,”Too bad you don't have a choice,Angel.”I teased and she gasped,her reaction turned me on big time but I tried my best to control myself. “You're the best assistant that I have ever worked with because…”I tilted my head to the side and pretended to be deep in thoughts. “You have been helpful in so many ways.Your experience is unmatched in every way.”I teased and she blushed.She knew what I was talking about… “Who knows?”I shrugged my shoulders nonchalantly then leaned over the table,”I might need your assistance.”I whispered but loud enough for her to hear.She swallowed hard, pretending to be unaffected and that is what I liked more a
ANGELINAI peeked at Lucas from the corners of my eyes.He was going through the details of the papers carefully with a frown on his face.His eyes widened at some point and a smile spread across my face.“What?Are you disappointed that your accusations were wrong or…are you surprised that your darling secretary has been deceiving you all this while?”I asked sarcastically and Lucas raised his head to look at me,his eyes blazing with fury.“Where did you get this?How sure is it?Jude has been working for our company for years!I don't think she can do such a thing.”He defended,not accepting the damn truth even though he was holding it in his hands.I know he was feeling guilty and that is why he was keeping up with the accusations.“Would you like to know how I found out about it?”I asked and he didn't respond to my question.It’s not like I was expecting him to respond anyway.“I found it somewhere you fa
ANGELINA My heart hammered wildly against my ribcage as I stretched my hand to take the papers.Taking a deep sigh,I lowered my head to check the papers and my grip on it tightened.I raised my head to look at Jared.“So my suspicions were correct?”I asked,my jaw twisting,”Yes,she tried to cover up her tracks so that all the blame could fall on you.However,she forgot about a minor detail which gave us a lead.”Jared explained briefly.“This will be helpful.Now I see why Xavier recommended you.”I joked and Jared smiled,”Xavier and I have been friends for such a long time.He knows me good enough to trust me with such crucial things.”I nodded in understanding.Xavier doesn't trust that easily,I know that.“Thank you for your services.If anything ever rises related to finance,I will contact you.”My lips curved into a smile“Looking forward to working with you some day.You have my contacts.”I nodded at his words with a sm
ANGELINADAYS LATER The changes in my office was over and now I’m back in my office.Even though I didn't want to admit it,I do miss working in the same office with Xavier…I collapsed on the highly backed chair and a deep sigh escaped my lips.I have been working like crazy for the past days.I have been busy going through the jewellery designs and coming up with new ones.The competition is one month away,we don't have that much time to waste around.I would like everything to be ready before the competition.We can't afford to make any mistakes because the competition is so important to the company.If our company makes it to the top of the list and our designs be chosen,it will lure more people and make the company more famous.We will close many deals too.Xavier has been helping me reason straight and calmed me down whenever I felt nervous about the competition.I don't know what I would have done without him…Even though a few days have passed by,still I
ANGELINAI stared at myself in the mirror and my lips curved into a smile.I was wearing the red dress that Xavier complained was showing too much of my boobs.I couldn't wait to see his face once he saw me wearing the dress.The thought of it made me so excited and I couldn't explain why.I just wanted to tease him to see his reaction.I have to admit yesterday night I had a lot of fun.Xavier and I danced to the sweet soft music while looking into each other's eyes.His hand was wrapped around my waist possessively as though he didn't want to let go.I felt safe in his arms that I didn't want the night to end.I wished time could freeze so that we could remain in the moment forever.We talked,joked and laughed, letting go of the steam.I drank two more glasses of wine.Xavier tried to stop me but I asked him to allow me to have some fun just a little bit because I have been through hell.He listened to me and allowed me to enjoy.
ANGELINAI didn't miss the surprise on Monalisa's face when she spotted me and I flashed her a smile.I guess she didn't expect me to be at the party too.Why was she still jealousy towards me despite having everything that she ever wished for?I still couldn't understand what was wrong with the witch.Well,I didn't care anymore.Lucas looked at me and I smiled at him too.I was here to have some fun.There was no way I was going to allow anyone to get in the way.“I think that is a good idea.”I told Xavier, holding his arm tightly and we headed towards the empty table which was a few metres away from Monalisa's.The people present in the hall wore expensive clothes and jewelry.Most of them were prominent people in Xiaomi city.I heard them talk about business as we passed by, others were catching up while others were dancing to the soft music that was playing in the background.I have been to parties like this before.I
