LISA POV
Waking up with a smile of content I remembered the weird hot sex dream I had last night, still trying to get myself together I felt an arm holding me tightly around my waist and hands slowly caressing my breasts, my eyes quickly opened. “Are you up babygirl?” I heard a sexy husky voice speak behind me and it dawned on me what happened last night wasn't a dream, it actually happened, shit. I slowly peeled his hands from my breasts cause I knew I wouldn’t be able to concentrate with his hands there “yeah I am” smiling I sat up on the bed I felt sore down there, wow. “Is something wrong?” His voice so close to my ears, I guess he sat up too. He moves my hair from my shoulders and kissed it, my breath hitched and I quickly stood up so that I don't repeat last night again cause I would love to but my dad must be waiting for me. He kept staring at my face even though I was standing there naked, he tried to reach for me and I quickly moved to gather my clothes I could find “I will be right back” I said quickly and entered the bathroom, quickly dressed. I came out to see the gorgeous man had already put on his trousers and was sitting at the edge of the bed typing on his phone without his shirt, the sight was so sexy to look away, he looked up to see me standing at the bathroom door and I quickly closed the door and walked out. I walked to my bag and turned to see that Mr sexy was standing right behind me “I was thinking maybe we could…..” he tried to say, I quickly cut him “I have to leave, I have somewhere to be” I couldn't understand the look on his face, was he disappointed maybe I was wrong “oh, then let me drop you off” he said. “It's fine” carrying my bag I walked past him and stopped turning to him with a smile “hey” and he turned “thanks for last night” smiling I turned and walked out of the room and closed the door. Walking to my car I thought to myself “Well that was nice, too bad I won't see him again” getting to my car I see that my guards were already getting ready to look for me. I saw them and the smile from my face disappeared. I got to my car which was already open waiting for me and got inside. Rolling the window down I said “make sure Maya got home safely and if she's still around get her home safely.” “Yes ma'am” they said bowing, I rolled up as we started driving. I promised my dad no more one night stands but that didn't go well last night, well all I have to do is avoid him before he knows I'm not home. On getting home I quickly tried to sneak upstairs when I heard my name “Lisa darling” I paused and slowly turned only to meet with my dad's best friend who's like a brother to him and I smiled, yes he always cover up for me. “Hey uncle Ben” smiling. I walked to him and hugged him, “how are you?” “You smell like sex” holding up his nose “Well thank you” we both started laughing “Hope you had a fun night?” wiggling his brows “Gross uncle Ben” laughing “but yes I did” holding his hands and walking together to the kitchen “That's nice to hear, you should drink some coffee” signaling for coffee, then it arrived “Thank you” taking a sip “what about dad?” I asked “Well he's…..” “What about me? Did something happen to my princess” my dad asked walking down the stairs to meet us at the kitchen I quickly gulped the coffee so that dad doesn't perceive alcohol, “ nothing daddy I just wanted to check up on you” smiling innocently Getting to the counter dad sat down across and kept staring at me “already dressed for work?” Taking a sip from his cup “Oh yeah, I have a lot to do at the casino, you know this and that” looking at uncle Ben to save me before my dad would use his eyes to sniff out what I was hiding “Ah Lisa darling weren't you going to help me get that stuff” uncle Ben said “Yes, yes the stuff”, standing up “I will go get it now” gulping the last coffee “ I will see you later” I hurrily walked pass my dad who opened his arms to hug me. “Going upstairs?” Dad asked and I froze at the stairs “I thought you were already dressed?” “Yes, it must have slipped my mind” I turned to walk when Dad said “You won't give your man a hug?” I smiled tightly and walked to him, bent down and gave him a short hug but he was quick to perceive the smell of alcohol “you took alcohol this early?” Walking away quickly I shouted “just to feel good before going to work, see you later dad, bye uncle Ben’’ I got into my car my driver was still in the car “let's go to work but stop at a mall I need to shop” “Yes ma'am” and he began to drive when Maya called “Hey hey” Maya's voice rang through the phone “you totally disappeared last night” “Yeah” fixing my hair “Just yeah, what the fuck happened? I told you our room number thinking to meet you afterwards but guess what? YOU DITCHED ME” she yelled Exhaling “I got to the wrong room” “Oh shit, did you meet some weirdo?” Maya asked “Nope,.... I actually met a pretty hot guy” I said slowly “he looked like a god and a delicious meal” remember his face and bits of last night, “Oh my god it's Lisa Downs talking about a guy she had sex with” squealing, I shot my eyes because of how loud Maya was being “I want full details, in fact I want to see him, let's talk more on this when we see” hearing shuffling in the background “meet me at our favorite taco shop, see you in five” she quickly ended the call I smiled at myself at how Maya can be. My mind immediately drifted back to the mystery hot guy, remembering the color of his hazel eyes and how he stared at me with so much admiration, or was I just seeing things. I never cared about people I had sex with but this guy makes me want him more. Now I want to find out more about him but how will I do that when I don't even know his name. Maybe it's best we don't know each other.DANIEL POVHolding up my unknown girl's bracelet she left behind in a hurry, I kept thinking about her. I haven't been able to think straight for weeks now all I can think about was raven hair and blue eyes looking at me as I thrust into her.“If you keep staring at the bracelet it will fade” Mark, my best friend said sitting across from me in my office. I sigh “still looking for her?”Sitting up on my chair “of course, it's like she disappeared into thin air” combing my fingers through my hair “I don't know how to find her” I said.“I get you man, but we can think about that later.” He throws a file on my desk “the Kalashovs are having a party tonight, it will be good to make the Russian Mafia our ally” staring at me for affirmation.I went through the file and asked “will my dad be free tonight?” still reading the invitation.“He was the one that actually sent the file to you” smirking.“That sounds like him” closing the file,“well, we have a party to attend and an ally to make” smi
LISA POVPicking my phone for the 3rd time from Maya “Lisa can you hear yourself, you have to abort the child you can't destroy everything you've worked hard for, for a child that will only cause you pain”“Nothing’s gonna change my mind Maya, so just support me as my friend” smiling and touching my stomach in my bathroom “we'll just have to keep Daniel's identity a secret, dad won't take it very well.”I hear her exhale through the phone “you're really gonna tell Dad?” “Yeah” exhaling “he'll understand.”“Alright babe, always know I'm here for you” the silence lingered a bit before she said “I love you girl”Laughing “you keep acting like I'm about to die… thanks, I gotta go bye” I ended the call and looked in the mirror before mustering up the courage to go to my dad's office.I knocked and stood by the door, seeing him alone. It was new he was always with uncle Ben.“Hello princess will you keep standing at the door” dad said smilingI smiled weakly and walked into his office. Don
LISA POV Walking out of the doctors office, a nurse stopped me, “ma'am, Mrs Anderson will be the doctor assigned to you, she'll message you about your next appointments” the nurse said. I looked at her name tag Diana wrote on it “thank you Diana, does that mean my antenatal isn't this week again?” I asked “I'm afraid so” smiling sweetly. Signing “I really wanted to hear my baby's heartbeat” I looked at the nurse and smiled “thank you”. The nurse smiled as she left. I brought out my phone from my bag to call my driver when I heard a voice I never thought I would hear again. “What are you doing here baby girl?” He said just behind me, I turned to see him standing there in all his glory. Maybe it's because I haven't seen him in a month or because I missed him but he looked so sexy in his white shirt with the first three buttons undone and black pants. Shocked, I whispered “Daniel” . I still couldn't believe it was him. He closed the gap between us and held my hands “why are you i
DANIEL'S POV For weeks all I did was to stalk Lisa. I knew all of her whereabouts, I just couldn't stay away so as usual, I drove to the Downs mansion to see Lisa but this time I have decided to speak with her. I watched Lisa walk out of her mansion, she stretched a little before putting on her headphones and started jogging. I started my car and slowly followed her to a distance away from her house and packed my car. I quickly got out and ran to her. I didn't want to startle her because of the pregnancy so I quietly touched her shoulders. I didn't know what happened next but I was on the floor, did she flip me over? “Daniel?” She said, surprised to see me she quickly put off the headphones and helped me up “what are you doing here?” She asked Groaning “i wanted to see you apparently” holding my shoulders. Touching my shoulder “does it hurt?” She asked if it was sympathy I saw or I didn't see correctly “I'm fine Lisa it doesn't hurt at all” I said smiling before I could hug h
LISA POVThis past week has been the best so far and I can't believe I'm saying that, I thought smiling at my reflection in the mirror. I was sitting down and my maid was carefully making a few touches on my face.“Miss Downs, you're glowing even more today,” Ella, my maid , said smiling.I smiled at her from the mirror and said “thank you”, she carefully took a step back, I looked at her “are you done?” I asked and she nodded and left.I stood up to stare at my short floral yellow dress with pink flowers and looked at my face. I was smiling a lot, and why wouldn't I be?. Daniel has been the best this past week. We went to lunch to eat together,we went to the hospital to hear our baby's heart beat and now we're going on a dinner date so why wouldn't I be glowing?.It's been so nice ever since I told him the child belonged to him and I feel at ease I thought smiling. I give myself a nod of approval before carrying my handbag and leaving my room.Walking down the stairs I called my driv
GEORGE POVI was sipping whiskey in my office while reading a newspaper when my door opened. I looked up to see my very best friend Ben walk in holding a bottle of brandy smiling.“Hey man, want to get high a little” wiggling the bottle.I chuckled “what are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be in a meeting?” folding the newspaper.“Can't an old friend keep you company?” laughing and walking to the mini lounge in my office. He uncorked the bottle and took a seat pouring himself a wine and gestured for me to join him. With a smile I downed my whiskey down my throat and walked to him and gave him my glass to pour mine.“That's more like it,” Ben said, smiling. I took a seat across from him and said “thank you.”“Lisa isn't around again?” Ben asked scanning around because she usually stays here to help out with work ever since I temporarily fired her for being the mafia queen but she hasn't been around for awhile now.“Oh well the usual, she and Maya are probably painting the entir
LISA POV“And I just had to find out he's the father of your child”. I felt like I couldn't breathe anymore, I watched as my dad walked to the table and threw everything to the floor yelling. I just stood and watched him.How long has he known? How did he find out? Does he hate me now? All these questions just kept going on in my head, I tried to take a step to my dad but I felt frozen in the spot. So I decided to speak instead.I exhaled shakingly “i….I can explain if you let me”“You had your chance to speak the truth yet you lied to me over and over and over again” dad said in a very deep voice holding onto the table with his back at me, “you haven't been with HIM for long and you're already lying to your father” he spat bitterly.“Daniel has nothing to do with this.” I didn't know what came over me but the moment I said those words I quickly regretted it because of how fast dad turned to look at me, I swallowed and tried again, “he didn't even know I was pregnant for him at first
LISA POVThe sound of a machine beeping and muffled sounds of people talking woke me up. I could barely hear what they were saying, I tried to open my eyes but they felt heavy.Slowly everything became clear and I could understand what was going around me and the voices where it came from, I could recognize two familiar voices but another voice was unknown.“How long will it take for her to regain consciousness?” The voice I recognize to be my father's asked.“Not very long, maybe in a few hours” the unknown voice said very calmly.“That's what you said 2 hours ago, are you messing with me?” Dad's voice sounded angry but why? Why was he getting angry because I was asleep? Well I'm up already I tried to say.“Hey man, cut the man some slack. He has been working his ass off monitoring her vitals all night.” That was Uncle Ben's voice.But monitoring my vitals? Why? Was something wrong with me? I immediately got scared, my baby. My eyes jacked open and I held my stomach, I looked around
BEN POVI barged into George's office and saw him scribbling something, he looks up to see it was me who walked in without knocking and continued how scribbling,“What do I owe for this sudden visit?” With quick strides I approached George and banged my hands on his table but he didn't seem to flinch, “what's this about Paris? Why are you sending Lisa far?”Still writing he said nonchalantly, “ ‘cause she loves Paris and has wanted to visit”“Don't give me that bullshit George, you're sending her away, on purpose”Finally dropped the pen and looked up to me, “what's your deal with Paris?”Exhaling, “I'm just worried you're sending her away to a far away place alone”Relaxing on his chair, “she won't be alone, she has Jeremiah,” sitting up on his chair he leaned on the table, “plus you're the one that suggested that I keep her safe and away from the Winstons no matter what.”Sighing loudly, I turned, running my hands through my hair before turning back to George who had a confused loo
LISA POVI'm having dinner with uncle Ben and my father. We ate in a peaceful silence, only the sounds of knives, forks or spoons making impact with the plate made noise. The guards always stood far away from us whenever we sat to eat but father made an exception for Jeremiah. When my father said Jeremiah was never leaving my side, Ihe really meant it.He stood a few meters away from my chair as I ate, I could feel his eyes burning through my skin. Everytime I glanced towards Jeremiah, he was always staring at me like I was going to disappear. His icy blue eyes stared deep into my soul like he was searching for something.I felt a hand on mine peeling my eyes away from Jeremiah. I turned to see my father staring at me with a questioning expression.“Did you hear what I said?” Dad asked.Looking between Dad and Uncle Ben, “what?”“You weren't listening pumpkin,” taking a sip from his wine, “is everything alright?”Looking back at Jeremiah, I slowly pulled my hands away from uncle Bens
LISA POVI was excited to speak with Lisa yesterday but then she said she was leaving. I can't just get my best friend back only for her to say she was leaving. I sighed loudly, tapping my heels on the floor everytime I stopped from a pace.My new guard Jeremiah kept looking at me weirdly. Okay, I'm impatient because Maya promised to be here as early as possible to explain herself today. I even decided to take the day off, it's already past 8am and she's nowhere to be seen. I'm presently standing more like pacing a few meters away from the main door waiting for it to open.“Ma'am, I think you should sit and wait,” Jeremiah tried again for the sixth time.“Jeremiah I'm fine with where I am,” I replied without glancing at him, I continued my pace until I felt a sharp pain in my lower abdomen making me gasp clutching to my tummy as I stood. I could feel Jeremiah close to me but I raised my hands telling him to stop, “I'm fine,” I tried to stand upright and the pain shot again, before I
LISA POVStanding in front of me was a bulky guy with blonde hair and deep brown eyes, he was putting on a vest on pants. He just stood there staring at me.I groaned, “give me a minute,” I walked to my desk, picked up my phone and dialed my father's number. I heard it ring twice before he answered, but I didn't give him the chance to say, “Cosa significa questo, papà?” (what is the meaning of this father?)“Immagino che tu abbia ricevuto il mio regalo” (I'm guessing you've gotten my gift)“Cosa diavolo sta succedendo?” (What the hell is going on?) I asked, turning to look at the guy before turning away from him.“"Non voglio solo che tu non mantenga la tua promessa per errore, principessa” (I just don't want you to break your promise by mistake princess), he said calmly annoying the fuck out of me.“I already promised……I don't need an extra bodyguard.”“I guess he doesn't know what I want, princess, Jeremiah is to follow you everywhere, never to leave your sight. While working, shopp
LISA POVTyping on my laptop, my mind kept flying back to Maya. It's been two days since the party incident and she hasn't bothered to call, well she doesn't have to call. It's not like it's necessary or anything, but after how I left she should have dropped a text, I can't believe she's still upset with me.I sigh loudly, my secretary looks up at me and I just waved my hands in dismissal. She continued to type on her computer, just when I was about to cuss Maya my baby kicked me, making me gasp in surprise. When I last visited the hospital my doctor said I should be expecting it but I never thought I would feel this happy from pain. I couldn't contain my smile as I rubbed my stomach, I slowly looked up and saw my secretary staring at me with admiration, that was new.“Do you have something to say?” I asked her.She took that as a means to approach me and stood across from me on my table. With a smile she said, “did your baby kick?”My secretary was changed immediately I returned to
GEORGE POVI haven't been able to get the image of Daniel and my daughter dancing on the dance floor. I try not to over think things but then again Ben said to be more careful, I doubled the guards around Lisa and made sure she doesn't drive to work, I'm exhausted. What do the Winstons want from me again?A knock on the door pulled me out of my mental battle. I looked up to see Mika's head being poked out of the door with a smile on her face, “Georgy,”I missed her so much, she always wore the best smiles. It broke my heart that she left the country after my wedding, now only to show up 24 years later still with the best smile, age has gat nothing on her.I watched her stride in, her heels making a slight noise with each step she took, she looked like an angel with the white gown she was putting on and her luscious blonde flowing down to her waist….wait was just checking Mika out? It's probably the kiss messing with my head.With a smile Mika said, “do I look that nice?” “Umm...yeah
DANIEL POVTwirling Lisa's diamond bracelet on my fingers, I kept going back to the party last night, the feel of Lisa's body pressed against mine, her perfect waist for my hands. She looked even more beautiful, slightly bloated from carrying my child and I noticed her breast had added a bit, only if Lisa could hear me now, I chuckled at my thought.“ I'm sure you're not crazy son but…. smiling at a bracelet…..that's a lot,” dad said chuckling.I had completely forgotten that my Dad was in my office to ‘’check up on me '' he says more like he came to mock me for being pussy whipped. Groaning, “can't I smile in peace without you nitpicking my every move?” turning to my Dad.“Easy there tiger,” chuckling loudly, “just stating what I see.”“Then don't say anything, I don't want to hear it,” staring back to the bracelet my dad said,After a little pause, Dad said, “I like her by the way…. that's if it helps,” I turned to my Dad, pulling out my drawer and safely placed the bracelet down qu
LISA POVI couldn't concentrate on where I was walking but I just kept walking looking for my Dad when I bumped into someone, without looking I muttered an apology but the person held my hands to stop me from walking. I turned to hit the person when I saw it was Maya.“Maya?” I whispered.“You look like shit,” looking me up and down.I chuckled and hugged her, the fact she hugged me back was already a positive signal, right?, “what are you doing here?” Immediately regretting my words, I tried to explain, “not….that….you can't be here….I'm just curious.”“It's fine, I'm here with Tiana…as her date,” Maya said smiling.“I'm happy for you,” exhaling, “I missed you…..”She raises her hand to stop me, “just because we're talking doesn't mean I forgive you or we're friends again,” looking around she says, “I don't want to ruin Tiana's image, plus…. everyone knows we're friends ... .one mistake and everyone will have something to say.” She said with a straight face.I nodded in agreement, “t
DANIEL POVI sat in the car with my Dad, barely aware of where we were. I haven't been able to concentrate, I couldn't reach Maya anymore and the hope of meeting Lisa was gone. Grumpy couldn't define my attitude, I'm pissed more than pissed and now my Dad is dragging me to his long lost friends party who decided to return to Rome, like I fucking care. He wants me to mingle, can he even hear himself? I will soon be a father but not be a part of my child's life and he wants me to mingle? I just don't know what to say to him. I feel a tap on my hands and turned to see Dad was trying to get my attention,“Did you hear anything I said?” he asked with a furrowed brow.Exhaling, I adjusted on the car seat, “No,” looking outside the window.“Well I said a lot of girls will be there……” After a short pause he said, “you know I'm just trying to help and it's fine if you don't want anyone else, I too understand what it means to be in love….. just please try to smile, okay?” I sighed but nodded.
