Falling For the Masked Lady. Chapter 64
June stood up from the sofa when she heard Michael honk. She checked the time to see that it was almost 11 pm, She didn't know that she would stay that long but she couldn't leave Angel all alone at home when Michael wasn't home.Michael got into the house and he stared at June in shock, she gave a little smile and he smiled back. "You are still here," He asked but it was more like a statement."I'm here, you don't expect me to leave Angel all alone at home when you aren't here," June said and he nodded."Have you had dinner?" He asked "I should be asking you that considering the fact that you worked all day," June said "I didn't have dinner yet but the snacks you sent to me earlier worked just fine," Michael said and she nodded. He stared around the living room and she cleared her throat. "Are you looking for Angel, she is up in her room, I took her there after dinner" June said and he nodded. The air between them was so fucking awkward and June didn't know what to do. She had so

"Do you want me to pick you up when you are done?" June asked Layla as she packed her bags into the truck that came to pick her up. She was going on a field trip for that day and would be back by nighttime, just in time for dinner."We have gone over this a hundred times already, the bus will bring me home June, don't worry and have fun with mum today, "Layla said and June nodded "I know but if you need me to come to pick you up, just call me okay," June said and Luna rolled her eyes "Jeez let the little girl go already, it's just for a few hours and you are acting like an old grandma," Luna said and June shot her a hard glare"Bye June, bye Luna" Layla laughed and they hugged her before she left the house for the bus that was parked right outside the house. Luna turned to June with her hands on her waist "Okay something is up with you, what is it?" She asked"Nothing, I'm fine" June muttered not meeting Luna's eyes. "You should be going crazy right now because you are late for wo

"I got the call from the real estate investor a few hours ago Mr. Stahom" Michael's secretary said as she passed the files to Michael and Frank who was currently sitting in the office trying to come up with a strategy for the product. "And what did he say?" Frank asked as he opened the file "He told me to arrange a meeting with you two, he would love to see you by the end of the week, Friday actually," She said and Michael nodded."That's tomorrow evening, do you have anything planned for tomorrow frank?" Michael asked frank "I will check with my secretary first and then get back to you Michael," Frank said "Anything is fine with me, I want us to close this up and start the process immediately," Michael said and Frank nodded in agreement. "Can you get you coffee Mr. Stahom, Mr. Frank?" She asked"Yes you can, I don't drink black coffee like your boss here, I like a lot of cream in mine, thank you," Frank said "Okay sir, I will be back," She said, and then she left the office. Fr

"Did you hear that too Angel?" June asked as she stooped folding the clothes she was folding. "Yes, daddy is back," Angel said with a grin and June nodded in disagreement. Michael had so much to do at work the last time she checked on him so he couldn't be home. Who was inside the house and how did the person her inside?"No, it's not your daddy, I want you to stay quiet and follow me Angel" June whispered and Angel grinned"Why are you whispering June?" She asked June. June let out a sigh of frustration, how the hell was she going to protect Angel from danger when the little girl wouldn't even shut up and listen to her?"Because someone is in the house and I don't think it's daddy. we have to be extra careful okay?" She said"Okay June" Angel yelled and June shushed her. June picked up the broom she was using to sweep the floor earlier and then she held Angel's hand and led them towards the entrance of the bedroom door. She opened the door as silently as she could and then didn't c

Michael left work after the long day, Frank asked if he would love to grab a drink after all the work but Michael refused because he was tired and he was aching to see Angel and June. He still hadn't asked her on the date officially and was still planning to. His phone was dead so he couldn't call her to tell her that he would be home late, he didn't have the time to charge it because they were too busy today. But June would understand him and stay with Angel till he got back. That's what he liked about her, the fact that she always tried to help him even if he didn't ask her to. Michael drove into the compound that night only to see that another car was parked at the spot where he usually parked his car. Michael got down from his car and picked up his bag before locking his car. "What the fuck is James doing in my house" He cussed out as soon as he got closer to the car. He knew that black car anywhere he sees it. He knew their cars, both James and Benjamin and he didn't care how

"June" Michael held her hand but she pulled away from his touch as if it burned her to touch him. "I can't do this" She whispered, her voice breaking down before leaving the room. Michael followed June down the stairs till she got to the living room. "June please listen to me," He said but she didn't give him a response. Instead, she went on to pack her things into her bag in a hurry as she held back the tears that were about to fall. Her throat felt so heavy, there was a lump there just like there was a void in her heart. "June please just give me a minute, hear me out" He yelled and she stiffened and turned to him. Her hand and the alarming sound of the impact made him realize that she slapped him on the face. "Don't you order me around like a maid" She yelled and then stared at him in anger before her frown was replaced with a silent laugh"Who am I kidding, I am a maid actually" She corrected and Michael stood still with his hand on his face. "I'm sorry June, I deserved that

"Michael and I are dating" June said and Layla laughed at her sister."Tell me something I didn't predict June. I knew it the first time I met Michael that you guys were going to become a thing, it happened later than I expected but it happened anyway" Layla said and June rolled her eyes. "Don't say that if you see him. we just started dating I don't want it to seem like I'm obsessing over him" June said and Layla nodded"How is mum doing now, I have been busy with school because the final exams are around the corner and so I haven't been able to pay her a visit, but I plan to visit her tomorrow," Layla said "That's why you are still up, you were waiting for me to get back to ask me?" June asked and Layla nodded her head in agreement."I miss mum so much that sometimes I wish she was home with us," She said and June frowned. "But I like having you around June, you are my second mum" She added and June's frown was quickly replaced with a smile. Layla must have been that June was not

"How does it taste?" Michael asked as he put the tray on the counter for Angel to taste. He blew out the cookie and gave it to her to taste."Daddy" Angel muttered as she stared at the cookie "I think I got it right this time, try it," He said and she closed her eyes and whispered words that he couldn't put his hands on to herself as if she said a silent prayer. She took a bite and spat it out immediately. "Daddy it's awful" She whined and ran to the sink before rinsing her mouth with water. Michael signed and picked up the half-eaten cookie and he took a bite from it, He spat it out and his features displayed a frown. This was the third time they were wasting ingredients to bake cookies, the first time the cookies didn't turn out well, the second time they ended up pouring the mixed flour on the floor and the third time, Michael couldn't even point out the taste the cookie had. It was just awful. "I don't know how to do this Angel, I give up," Michael said as he dropped the freshl

Michael was with Frank when he got the call from his brothers, Frank tried to calm him down and tell him that he can figure a way out but Michael wasn't ready to listen to him. Immediately Michael called his lawyer. "Mr Stahom, I have prepared the papers for the lawsuit, I will be ready when you are ready" He said "That's not the issue, I need you to draft up all the documents of the entire company in thirty minutes and then send it to me, I will sign it" Michael said "What do you mean by that Mr Stahom, what do you need the entire papers of the company for?" The lawyer asked "I don't have the time to answer your questions so please just do as I say and let me have it. I will be with you in an hour to sign them" Michael said and hung up on him.

The girls got ready for school the next day and Michael got down the stairs, they didn't know that he was around the day before. "Daddy" Angel yelled and she got down and ran to hug him, Michael hugged her back "Darling, how are you doing?" Michael asked "I'm fine daddy, when did you come home?" Angel asked"I arrived last night baby and you were sleeping then," Michael said and she nodded. "Mr. Stahom, how was your trip?" Layla asked "It was fine Layla, I did what I wanted to do thanks for asking. I hope you girls didn't disturb June too much while I was away?" Michael asked "Not at all, I made Angel behave too," Layla said and Michael grinned. "Daddy we baked, we watched movies, had ice creams, and slept with June in your bedroom every night, I love it but I just missed you so much daddy," Angel said "I know baby and I missed you so much, that's why I came back to see you. but you have to go to school now so I will see you when you get back" Michael said and she nodded"Okay,

Michael got into his hotel room after leaving the meeting and he laid down on his bed feeling extra tired from the days work, he spent the whole day talking to so many men because of the new business. 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. He was looking forward to their reactions when he would get home. He removed his next tie and stared at the ceiling when his phone began to ring again. It was June, he thought as he stared at the screen, he smiled to himself and picked up the phone ready to tease her. "I thought you didn't miss me, then why are you calling me June?" Michael asked with a smirk "Mi

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. June dropped the spoon she was holding and then took off the apron around her waist and hugged Angel. "Do you miss your daddy?" June asked and Angel nodded her head in agreement. "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

Michael had finally calmed down from his paranoia so the girls are allowed back to school after two weeks, He found out about a last-minute trip to New Orleans so he was going to leave with his secretary. 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. "I know that baby, and if it weren't for the fact that

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. When Angel saw that June had finished baking, Layla was washing the pans in the sink while June cut the cake into big slices, Angel rushed over to where her dad was standing and then beckoned for him to bend down."You want to tell daddy something?" Michael asked and she nodded. He bent down and then she grabbed his hair "Daddy, I just want to tell you that June is a great mummy to me" Angel whispered in his ear and Michael beamed with joy. He was overwhelmed with so many emotions at that moment and was glad that Angel thinks

For the next two days, Michael refused to let the kids go into the compound to play because he was scared that anything would happen to them. They went to work with the bodyguards, some guarded the house and the kids followed two other with Shawn as the driver since he was someone Michael trusted them with. He was worried that anyone might try to kidnap someone again, it might not be Layla this time but it might be Angel or even June and he couldn't take any risks, they were all important to him and they each had the roles to play in his life.Michael didn't go to work today, he wanted to work from home because he had some calls to answer and he wanted to do it at his study, the kids were currently back from school and were eating while June was upstairs in the bedroom doing her leftover work from the office.

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?" The man said and as June heard him mention attempted kidnap, her heart began to race and immediately she understood that it had to do with Layla. "Hello, are you still there ma'am?" The man asked disturbing her thoughts and she remembered she was on a call before. "I will tell him, please hold on," June said and then she placed the call on hold before turning to Michael."Michael" June called and he looke
