“For fucking sake, Natasha. Just for this night, please,” he knows how desperate he sounds like. Since he started talking to Natasha when the broke up between her and Jacob happened, he haven’t laid a hand on any woman but her. He just couldn’t do it anymore if it’s not with her.
She raised her head and looked directly at his eyes. She can’t bear to stare in those blue eyes any longer, she can easily get lost to it and she does not want that. Those eyes belong to Howard, but they look exactly like Jacob’s.
“This is just to pleasure ourselves, Howard. Don’t ever think that there is something I can offer you more than that,”

Howard kept his mind on focus but no matter what he do, the naked body of Natasha kept on flashing to his mind.“Damn it, I am going crazy,” he said in exasperation and stood up from his swivel chair. James have called him when he saw him walking out of his office.“Your meeting will start in an hour, where are you going?” James asked him with his forehead creased. Howard never leaves his office when he has an appointed meeting, he will just usually stay inside his office and review the documents. So, James was curious to know if something strange suddenly happened.Howard continued walking and ignored James. Once inside his car, he started its engine and drove to Natasha’s building. Her secretary did not stopped him from coming to her office because she already got used to Howard visiting Nat from time to time. She honestly thinks there is something going on between the two.When the door of her office opened, Natasha was to

Natasha was scrolling on her laptop when she heard a knock on the door. As expected, it was her secretary.“Is everything ready, Kendra?” she asked her secretary.“Yes, ma’am. Should I ask your personal driver to get you there?” she inquired and handed a document to her.Natasha waved her hand. “Nah. I’ll drive there myself.”She looked at her wristwatch and decided that it is time to go.“You may leave now, Kendra. Give me a few minutes to prepare for the meeting,” she smiled and her secretary bid her goodbye before walking out of the door.Natasha put on a lipstick and added a light make-up on her face. She sprayed a sweet yet seductive scent of perfume all over her body. Once contented, she stepped out of her office and told Kendra that she won’t probably be back by the office for the day because her meeting may take a while. It may even take the whole night.Natasha

Natasha went back to her office that made her secretary furrowed her brows in confusion.“I thought you’ll be back by tomorrow, ma’am,” she said and was about to follow her inside when she stopped her by raising her hand.“Not now, Kendra. I want some time alone,” she told her and slammed the door of her office.She was disappointed by herself. It was just pure business. Why did she suddenly start on thinking about Howard? It doesn’t matter how his touch differs from others. She should have been objective and controlled herself from being emotional. Now, she lost a partnership that her company had been looking forward to.She thought about her current status with Howard right now and how it felt weird that he never fails to make her feel better. What happened between them was just meant to pleasure themselves. She should not develop anything personal feelings towards him. It will be difficult if she just let her g

“How was work?” Howard asked her while they were driving on their way to the restaurant.“Exhausting, you’ll never imagine how tiring it is. Lucky you, all you do all day is to think about me,” she teased him and tickle his stomach.“Stop that, I’m driving,” he said between his laughs.Natasha giggled and turned to see the view outside by the window.When they reached the parking lot, Howard opened the door for her. She glanced sideways upon having the feeling that someone is looking at her.“Are you trying to look for someone while you’re with me?” he said with his forehead creased and his hands still in the door handles.She ignored her and went inside the restaurant.“Wait for me, Nat. I was just kidding.” He chased her but she seems out of focus even though they were already seated on their reserved table.Her hands keeps on shaking and she

So he expects to see him or hear any news about his comeback, but to no avail, there is no single article about him. She’s starting to wonder if she was just mistaken, maybe it is not Jacob. Perhaps, it was just somebody who looks like him. She is not certain so she hired a private investigator to ease her mind.“What have you found?” she asked the investigator over the phone one morning. She is anticipating that he can give her some useful information.“Nothing, ma’am. There is no news about him since he vanished in thin air when he became a suspect for murder a year ago.”Natasha took a huge breath. A year. She can’t believe it has been one year since that case broke out. Time flies so fast, she did not even notice it.“Do you think he is New York?” she whispered, not wanting anyone to hear her though she is alone in her office.The investigator fell silent on the other line for a moment. “I am not

It was the same car he used to bring whenever they had dates or events that they would attend together. She hates it but she can still remember all of the silly things they have done in that car. She thought it was already taken by the bank when his company suffered bankruptcy, maybe he bought it back. Too sentimental and nostalgic. He carried her inside, she tried to stop and fight against him but he is too strong that she cannot even resist him. She slapped his back and all of the parts of his body she can hit but to no avail, he succeeded on getting her inside.

Thirty-fourIt's been weeks since Howard left but she still haven't heard a single thing about him. She thought he is going to call her as soon as he arrived to wherever he is going but she was obviously wrong. He did not even left a message. Maybe, he decided to be a gentleman and let her be for a while, but he is giving her too much space and she misses him. She paced around her office and contemplated whether to call him. If she calls, then she would appear desperate for wanting to talk to him. No, she can't do that. She should not call. But it's been weeks. He should have at least left her a message. She do not know what's really happening to her. She does not even know why she misses him, his voice, his touch, his kisses, all of him. It's driving her insane to want him right now.

His secretary was right, it is an offer to buy his business. He scanned the files to see who has the guts to do it and did not quite get shock upon seeing the name Inno Pavel. He knew that Jacob will make a move to destroy him but he did not expect him to do this. His brother is aware that he will not sell it, especially to him.“Huh. Does he really think I will sell it to him? He lost his mind,” he exclaimed.“But, sir, don’t you think it is odd?” James told him.Howard tilt his head and looked at him. “What do you mean?”“Jacob is back but he is not even making an effort to visit you. He is not doing anything against you. He is too quiet.”Howard placed his hands at the top of his desk and intertwined it. “You are right. I am wondering about that too. We won

Natasha started to realize what is happening. She was too blind not to see it coming. Jacob changed his name, that was the reason why she could not find nor trace him. Huh. Inno Pavel. Where did he even get that name? She thought about him all night and how he managed to still grow a business despite what he had experienced. His company suffered in bankruptcy. He was framed into a murder case. Everybody turned him down. No one dared to help him during that time. She was surprised that he was able to manage all of it at once and still get back up.Now, what? What will happen that he is back?Should something change? Of course, not. She is happy now. Or is she, really? If she already moved on, then why did the world seems to stop a second the moment she saw Jacob’s face again? Why did she feel a void inside her? Why did she suddenly remember the moments they have shared together?She embraced herself and tears roll down her cheeks when she recalled the time she caught him cheating with
