Falling For the Masked Lady. Chapter 17
June was a bit nervous about starting work officially at Nicholas's house that morning but still, she wouldn't let it show so she wouldn't mess up her work for the day. The routine was to get to Michael's house by dawn before daybreak to prepare breakfast for him and his daughter and then by night time when she is asleep, She could go back home. She made a quick stop at the hospital to check on her mother before she headed to Michael's house. The surgery was over days ago and it was a success because it increased her lifespan by some months. Anytime she saw her mother on the oxygen tube she couldn't help but be thankful for what Michael was doing for her. "I am going to start work at the new place today mom. I miss you so much so please get back on your feet as soon as possible. I ignore the fact that Layla cries herself to sleep every night and I'm trying to be strong for all of us but I still can't help but miss you sometimes." She said to her mum while sitting down. "I will be b

The driver Michael had sent picked June up from the house as soon as Angel fell asleep as he had promised. The driver dropped her home and June walked up to her porch after getting down from the car. She wondered if Michael knew where she was living as she rummaged through her bag searching for her house keys. As soon as she found it, she walked up to the front door and was about to unlock it with the key when she sees that it is open. She wondered how her door was open since she had made sure to lock it that morning before she went out and Layla wasn't home since she was staying in school for a night class. She pushed the door open with her feet and then bent down to remove one of her heels, using it as protection, ready to swing it at whoever was in her house at the moment. She walked into the house and shut the door behind her. "June?"She flipped the light switch and Immediately a scream escapes her mouth at the person in front of her. Before she could speak Luna had already ru

She takes a peek at what he was typing and then turned to leave when she saw how busy he was. "June" Michael called her as she was about to leave the study. She turned to look at him with confusion. He motioned for her to come closer to him and she did so"I didn't get the chance to thank you well for what you did for me yesterday. So far you have been doing a good job, with the cooking, with cleaning and even with Angel, I'm so surprised" He said and she smiled at him."You shouldn't have to thank me for anything Michael,

Michael was at work trying to sort out the matter that was at hand. His computer had been hacked into and the file had been stolen. His secretary didn't know what happened and he had a meeting with the investors in an hour. Without the file, he had no ideas to give to them."How the fuck did this happen, I spent the whole night trying to type this out yesterday and I sent it to you. I told you to secure it didn't I? now it's gone and you don't have an excuse for the missing file" He yelled "I promise I don't know anything about the file. I kept it as you said and I didn't even leave the office except when I had to get printed papers from the clerk downstairs. I don't know what happened" She said "If I don't find the documents you lost, better still if I lose the deal you are fired, put that in mind and get out of my sight" His voice thundered and the women ran out of the office. The door opened again and Michael groaned. Was it that hard for her to stay away from the office? He mig

As soon as June leaves Angel stood up from the chair she was sitting in and she gave her father a deep frown. Michael sighed before putting his head in his palms."You were mean to June daddy," Angel said to her father, her arms crossed over her chest. Michael stared at the little girl in front of him before looking towards the entrance that June had taken a few minutes ago when she left.Fuck, he let what was bothering him get into his head and he yelled at June, she said things he didn't mean. He was mean as Angel had said. "June didn't take me out of the house because she wanted to disobey you. I wanted cookies and she offered to help me bake them but when we checked the kitchen there wasn't a single cookie so she offered to take me out to get some." Angel explained."It was my fault that she took me out and it's also my fault that we came back late. I begged her to get some ice cream for you and me daddy" Angel said "So I got mad at June for nothing," He said to Angel and she no

"June" The voice and the sound of her name had her feeling surprised. what was Angel doing at home when she should be in school?"Hi Angel," June said with a smile. Angel ran inside the kitchen to hug her. June was instantly touched and she hugged the little girl back.

I knew you were going to come back. i told daddy to get you flowers and apologize yesterday but he was scared you wouldn't forgive him" She said.Michael wanted to apologize to June yesterday, He was thinking she wouldn't forgive him.

"Daddy?" At the sound of Angel's voice, June pushed Michael off her. She didn't know what to do now that the girl saw them in this position, what was she going to say to her and how were they going to get out of this fucking mess."What are you doing in here?" She asked her daddy and Michael turned to look at her with a smile. He left me and walked up to where she was standing. "Let's go, honey I'm sorry I kept you waiting, I was just talking to June," He said to her. Angel didn't say anything, she looked past her dad and then fixed her eyes on June. "Dad, can June go with us to the park?" Angel said suddenly."Yes she can, but only if she wants to honey," Michael said. "Come on June, daddy said yes this time, will you go with me now?" She asked with a pout and June was confused but relieved."Yes, I will go with you" She managed to say and Angel grinned before running out of the kitchen to grab her bag. "I hope I'm not in the way of your outing today?" June asked Michael and he n

He hadn't told anyone that he was opening up another branch, he didn't even tell June yet because he wanted it to be a surprise. But when he got home, since this trip was successful and the business would soon be set up, he would bring it up and tell her all about it. He had spoken to Angel because June said she missed him and he missed her a lot too, after tonight, he planned on taking the first flight home to surprise them.

June was in the kitchen making dinner while her sister and Angel are playing in the living room. She put the food in the oven when Angel ran into the kitchen and then walked her to her with a frown. "June" She called in a silent voice and it was at that moment that June knew that the little girl was feeling down. "What's wrong Angel, aren't you playing with Layla anymore? Or are you hungry because I'm making dessert right now and dinner is almost done" June said and she nodded in refusal? "Where is daddy June, when is he going to come back?" Angel asked with a frown.

"I'm sorry honey, it's been days since you saw him. Michael must also miss you, he was in a meeting when I called him earlier this morning" June said "Can I call daddy now, I want to talk to him June, I miss him?" Angel said and June smiled

Michael bent down, his lips against her cheek, brushing it lightly, and still, that light touch sent shivers through her nerves, shivers that made her whole body tremble. He brushed his mouth against the hollow of her temple and then his lips were on hers again. June stood on her toes and reached up as she pulled him down to her, He kissed her gently, carefully, but it wasn’t the gentleness she wanted, not now, not after all this time, and she knotted her fists in his shirt, pulling him harder against her body. He groaned softly, low in his throat, and then his arms circled her waist, gathering her against him, still kissing. His lips tasted like honey. They stopped to catch their breath.He smashed his lips on hers again. she tasted so sweet and he could smell her perfume from how close they were. Slowly, he lifted her from the ground and carried her to the counter so she would sit before he spread her legs open. "Wait in the kitchen?" she asked with her eyes open wide. "I don't

He couldn't ask June to go with him because he knew that she had to watch the kids. "I would have asked you to go with me but I know you wouldn't agree to go with me because of the kids," Michael said as he tossed his clothes on the bed. "I asked you to fold them" June complained and then folded them for him before she placed them into his box neatly. "I have you to do it for me," He said and she rolled her eyes at him. "I know, I want to follow you too, get time to ourselves, time away from the girls but I can't leave them at the same time because of how things are now, the cops haven't caught the other men who tried to kidnap Layla or the actual person who gave the orders so we have to be careful," June said and he nodded.

That evening, Michael watched as June baked a cake with her sister and Angel in the kitchen. "Stop standing there, at least make yourself useful even if you can't bake Michael," June said and he frowned. "I'm fine with just watching you bake for the kids from this place June so ignore me and keep doing what you are doing," Michael said "I'm done, I just have to put the slices in a plate for the kids and then I will be with you," June said and Michael nodded.

Michael's phone began to ring again and they ignored the call thinking it was the head of the IRS department that might be calling. But June couldn't focus on any other thing the way the phone was ringing so she picked up the call for Michael. "Good afternoon, Mr. Stahom isn't in a position to receive a call now, you can leave me a message to give to him or call him again in the next one hour," June said politely "I'm sorry ma'am but it's important, can you tell him that the chief of police would like to speak to him, concerning the case with the attempted kidnap from yesterday?"
