Chapter 4
Tracy woke up at the first ring of her alarm,she tossed her duvet aside mumbling some strange words.
She yawned, stretching her body to it's fullest.Feeling satisfied she glance at her wall clock and realized it wasn't yet Dawn.She wondered why she had set the alarm at the first place as she resign to go back to bed.She threw the duvet back on her body but was drawn back on the second ring of her alarm.Damn!! She muttered spranging to her feet recalling the interview Jacqueline had told her about.She hastily went to the bathroom, took her bath and brushed her teeth.She took her time in dressing up, apply lip gloss and roll her hair into a bun which wasn't too comfortable with so she decided to let it free.She grabbed her bag making sure all her necessary documents are intact, Satisfied she hit the road using the address she had earlier gotten from Jacqueline.In what seems like an hour,she finally arrived at her destination.She met others people there.So, she waited patiently along with them.Few minutes, the manager came to address them saying he wouldn't be the one interviewing them but his boss himself.He wished them good luck and strode out of the room leaving them confused.Tracy sat down quietly waiting anxiously for the interview to begun.Finally, the first person was called upon.She watched as the blonde stood up dragging her tight fitted skirt up and apply red lip gloss on her lips smacking her lips in a seductive manner.The blonde flashed them a mocking look as she went inside.Tracy shook her head wondering if the blonde had to act like a seductress to obtain the job.She rested her head on her knees stamping her feet on the floor while waiting anxiously for her own turn.The door to the interview room suddenly flung open with the blonde scampering out as fast as she could.Tracy noticed the blonde couldn't face them so she had used her palm to cover her face as she ran dejectedly out of the premises.She wondered what went wrong."Maybe she was banned for indecent dressing" she thought.The next peson went inside making her more anxious if she herself is going to stand a chance.The door flung opened again with the second interviewee coming out frustratedly.She wondered if the boss was that cruel to had made their faces that way.She didn't realize it was her turn until the guy sitting beside her nudged her to go forward.She became nervous as her palm turn sweaty.She gently turn the door knob open and went inside.Her brown eyes met with the cold dark eyes.She felt her heart beat accelerated as she stare at the man in front of her.It was him, she wasn't mistaken.It was the same Cole Anderson her sister murderer.Her pulse quicken at the thought of it.At this point she wasn't only nervous she wasn't she was scared and confused as well.This was the same man that had brought her pain,he had robbed her of her only family and she couldn't let him go Scot free.She heard her sister's dying word ring inside her head "re..ve..nge.."Chapter 5Tracy straighten her posture deciding this wasn't a time for her to reminisce over her dead sister's word, she had been trying to unravel the secrecy behind her sister's death and finally she had finally seen an opportunity.She held her head higher gathering much courage in facing her interviewer."Hi.." she stammered clearing her throat blaming her voice for betraying her."Hello" he greeted back.She had almost forgotten she was being interviewed as she had greeted casually."Good afternoon, sir" she greeted politely correcting her self by greeting formally."Yh, so can I have your credentials" he replied in an arrogant tone.Tracy handed the brown file that contained her credentials over to him.She watched as he collected it without sparing her a glance and quickly went through it while she had her head bow praying silently."You're hired" he said abruptly."Your job starts now, meet Jerome, my guard to show you to your room
Tracy dished the already cooked food, waving the thought of poisoning it aside that was forming inside her head.She cautiously took it to the dining room, only to find her boss seated there already with his head facing down.She cleared her throat announcing her presence.He shot her a cold glare before sitting up.Tracy felt her heart beat accelerated, her hands suddenly turned sweaty. She has never been this nervous neither as she been as scared as this.She quietly placed the food down and turned to leave but he called her back."Have a taste" Cole said grumpily not trusting her enough.Tracy fixed a cool expression as she stuff the food in her mouth. She shrugged munching the food quietly." You're excused" he bluntly said.Tracy strode out of the dining room making her way to her own room.She got inside and closed the door with a click.Once inside, she let out a sigh of relief thanking God she had resisted the urge of po
Cole sat on his couch outside receiving the cool evening breeze.He sipped slowly from his glass of wine with his gaze facing the sky, his mind pretty occupied with his new cook.There was something fascinating, something different about her that he couldn't tell.He wondered why he always had this cranky feeling whenever she's with him, the feeling to smile so he could ease her fear.He was used to his workers being scared of him, so why's she different? He thought taking another sip from his wine.Not only her difference that astonishes him also her meal.He had emptied the whole content in the dish she had served him ;something he hadn't done in years.Her cooking skills must be really outstanding to had made him emptied the whole content.Just as her beauty is ravenous and also her cherry blossom lips are so damn cute that when she had tasted the meal he couldn't help but stare at her lips.While taking in her features, the way she ha
TracyBeep! Beep! Beep! The unceasing sound of her phone rang with an incessant peal, waking her up from sleepShe tossed her duvet aside, walking sleepily to where her phone is.She answered it without looking at the caller's name."Hello" she yawned sleepily holding her phone close to her ears."Tracy, where the hell have you been"? I've been calling all bloody day and night" the caller's voice boomed which she recognized to be that of her friend, Jacqueline."I thought something bad had happened to you, where did you sleep? The voice continued not giving her chance to explain."Gosh! Queline, so many questions at a time, you didn't even get to say good morning.How bad of you" Tracy huffed rolling her sleepy eyes." Pardon my manners, honey.I was just so worried about you, I had a sleepless night and was so damn scared that I had almost file in a report for a missing person.Beside, you still haven't answered my question,where are you currently
Minute later, she came out wore her clothes, packed her hair into a bun before heading downstairs to the kitchen to prepare breakfastShe prepared it as fast as she could, arranged it in the most presenting was she could think of, then took it to the dining table humming a song as she walks.Her already sitted boss made her cringed with fear.She wonders why she always get nervous whenever she's with him.She shouldn't be scared of him. She encouraged herselfHe was her worst nightmare, a murderer, a killer.He's the reason behind her everyday tears and she was sure going to haunt him same way he did to her.Having encouraged her self enough.She lifted her head up and narrowed her eyes to meet his .Her gaze dropped instantly as it peered into the hot seething dark eyes.His eyes were blazing fire, his jaw tighten as though he was about to murder.Fear over took her as she shudder from where she stood still holding the tray that contained his br
Tracy laid on her bed staring at the ceiling, trying to get the kiss off her mind.She find it difficult to let such pleasurable memory off as she recall how tender his kiss had been.It was inviting, sizzling an totally out of control.The way his sensous tongue had stroke hers made her yearn for more.He had caught her unaware and she had gave in to him; something she couldn't believe she would do.It was her first kiss, she had always dreamt of having her first kiss at the altar with the man she loves, not to murderer, her sister's murderer at that.What suprises her was that his kiss had swept her off her feet and she had found herself craving for more as she had flung her arm tightly on his neck urging him for more.She couldn't explain what he was doing to her that moment, what matter most was that she wanted more of what he'd offered.When he had broken the kiss,she felt the urge of drawing him back but she had left him knowing it will be embarrassing.
Cole leaned over the balustrade staring heavenward.Many thoughts clouded his mind; mostly that of his cook which was at his top list.Gosh! He don't really get why he ad kissed her. He had intended to shun her for bringing breakfast late but, there he was kissing her.He scoffed shooking his head in disbelief.He had enjoyed the kiss though.The way she had responded to him made him crave for her,her cherry blossoms lip was so soft and sweet.He really wished he could get to kiss her again; wrap his arm around her curvy waist, inhale her Rosy smell and watch as she surrender to his kiss.The thought alone made his heart gave a might thud.He had better let go of this thought and focus on something else. He reasoned.Beside, he had Alicia to deal with.Wondering who Alicia is??Well, Alicia was a drug lordress. She was under him as he was their Damon king.But, she backstabbed him by killing his family all because he had re
It been three weeks now and Cole have not been able to think of a solution to take down Alicia.Each time he tried, his head end up being caught up with his cook, Tracy.She's really a distraction to him and the earlier he stops thinking of her the better for him. He reasoned.She had been avoiding him since the kiss incident and he had also been making it easier for her.He always make sure she had already placed the food on the dining table before he goes down to eat, that way they wouldn't be able to see each other.He had lost the one he loved and he was scared of history repeating itself.He is attracted to her, he knows that but he is scared.Scared of opening up, scared of being broken a second time.Cole clenched his fist, his teeth gritted, anger forming already.Alicia was right, he was a coward for not knowing how to protect his belove, so he doesn't fit to be a Damon king.Yep, he was and still is.Those painfu
