EDWIN'S POVI drove my car into my mansion, then I parked it properly at the parking lot and I came down from my car. I decided to drive myself today because I needed something to ease of my mind.It was already mid night, almost a new day, but I cared less since I spent the whole day in my office while everyone left, including Miranda who was acting a bit unusual. It seems she was kind of becoming nice, which called for an alarm.The issue with Mr Silverstein's was still a bit confusing to me, it was the reason I stayed back at the office in order to think things through. But I didn't get any specific answer, perhaps the answer is right in front of me, but I failed to notice.I don't know this icy feelings I was having, but I knew I needed something to ease my stress, someone rather. Yeah I needed sex. It's been long I had a thing with a lady after Serene. Well except for the little make out I had with Miranda which only worsen my sexual cravings.I sigh trying to remove such sinful
EDWIN'S POVI found myself wanting, wanting to hold and touch every part of the, I was longing to hold and kiss every part of her body. The feelings I was having earlier all came back. Yes the sexual cravings.Miranda quickly withdraw her legs from my grip and she quickly covered her body with the duvet."I'm sorry," She quickly apologized and I hummed."What is she seriously doing to me? Because right now I don't even know what's wrong with me," But I knew I had to control myself. My little monster was already up rising, waiting to take action."I need to disinfect your injury, so it won't scar or cause an infection," I said and she sighed."It's painful," She replied staring at her leg."The pains is for the best,"I said and I held her leg, ready to apply the already mixed methylated spirit in it.She was breathing heavily as I applied it while closing her eyes. The moment it touched her leg she screamed.Gosh I didn't know the almighty Miranda was such a scary cat. Yet she acts bra
Edwin's POVI quickly diverted my gaze from her body, I wasn't expected to do this not when she is not in a good state of mind. I was done using the first aid kit on her and decided to ask her what happened, she is no longer breathing hard anymore."What happened while you were in the bathroom and bleeding at the same time?" I questioned and she stared at me for a few minutes before replying to what I asked."I fell from the pool in the bathroom while having my bath spraining my leg in the process and that made me bleed" She answered calmly, not like the stubborn and rude Miranda I knew. I ruffled my hair in bewilderment. I can't believe I left my mansion because she got a minor injury in her legs and I was thinking it was a serious issue. Maybe someone might have tried to kidnap her or take advantage of her not knowing this is the reason."So that's the reason you called me huh?" I ranted and that was when her once calmed face changed to an angry one."The last time I checked, I didn
MIRANDA'S POVImmediately Edwin left, Maxwell walked in when I was about to lock my door, shocking me and I ruffled my hair, biting my lips lightly waiting for the scoldings that awaited me."Edwin's car just left and you don't have to lie because I can recognize his car clearly even when I am seeing properly, I can still recognize his car so tell me. What is he doing in your house by this time or are you both having affairs now other than work duties!" He yelled at me and I groaned, He didn't even check my leg to see the injury other than ranting."He just came here to help me out, I called you, look at the time you are coming,He beat you to it so stop the yelling already!" I yelled back at him and he fumed pushing my back to the wall."Don't dare yell at me you brat, I won't be shocked if I was told he fucked you!" He screamed and I stood up staggering because of the pains from my legs, when I got to him, I slapped him hard twice."Don't dare tell me shit, I am doing all these for yo
Edwin's POVI couldn't believe my eyes when an unknown message popped in my screen informing me that the deal was given to Maxwell and I scoffed closing my laptop, They think I care if they give him the offer, I don't fucking give a damn. I am not called Edwin for nothing and I walk my pathway to success, I don't need anyone to push me there because I am already there.I think Maxwell needs it more because his company will always sleep in second rank, I hope this helps him a little to boost his company rank. He will forever be a second choice.They met me first before him and even begged me to give them a chance but I am not the type that goes back to my words when I've already made my statement, I am not a chameleon.I assured myself that I can do it alone before going to bed, I just have a few hours left because it's mid-morning already, I need to rest a little before getting ready for work.[Few hours later]My maids were already back to work for the day and everything I needed was
Miranda's PovHe rushed to me and I almost burst out laughing at his shocked look. He was so scared, I closed my eyes quickly when he was coming closer to me. I couldn't take the pain anymore and I had no option than to fake faint. I got him with that. He should learn never to mess with me."Miranda, are you okay, please open your eyes?" He screamed, touching my face as I limped on the floor, making him so scared."Please don't do this, I am sorry for giving you this kind of punishment, I promise never to try this again. Just wake up please, Open your eyes" He uttered fearfully, My eyes were still closed, I was still pretending like I was dead.He carried me from the floor and ran to his car. I could feel the gaze of his workers fixed on the both of us even when my eyes were closed.Edwin dropped me at the back seat then entered too, placing my head on his Laos. At some point I was enjoying the way he carried me and also placed my head on his Lap making me feel some tingling sensatio
MIRANDA POV'S"I also have my secretary so don't act like a champion when you are not beside I didn't tell you I was looking for an assistant, you chooses that yourself" He reminded me and I sneered glaring at him hatefully, I can't wait to be done with him after Maxwell rank first, his ego is too much."When you are done ranting then leave the hospital, I will call my best friend to pick me up" I ordered and shook his head fuming."You love punishment so much, another one awaits you soon. Take care of yourself and make sure you come early to work after you've served your one week break" He warned sternly and stormed out of the hospital enraged. "Finally I can breath well, I need to see Maxwell, Need to have some good fuck. It's been a while we had a memorable sex" I thought, smiling sheepishly."You had sex with him a few days ago" My subconscious mind reminded me and I pouted."What ever" I muttered and walked out of the ward, I paid the doctor then left for Maxwell's Mansion.****
MIRANDA POV"What's wrong?" I inquired and he sighed pulling his dick out of my pussy and I wondered what was wrong but he was not even willing to say anything, making me annoyed."What's wrong?" I questioned again but got no reply from him. He wore his shirt and shorts then ran out of his mansion hastily, not even staring back or sparing a glance at me.I was enraged by what happened,He just left me hanging not even feeling any remorse about what he did. Worst of all, He just stormed out of his mansion without even trying to explain what he saw on his phone that made him run out like that.I put on my clothes and had to calm myself down. Fortunately I wasn't feeling horny anymore because of how angry I was.This time around, let's see how he earns My forgiveness for playing with me and doing shit without remorse.I took my belongings and left the Mansion back to my abode angrily. He made me accept leaving work for one week just to be with him and then he is behaving this well. He suc
Edwin's POVBack in the day….Stepping on the throttle, we were already out of the mansion in no time and I was having a hard time digesting all that I heard. Silverstein made a move while my family stupidly accepted. They don't know what they're in for or maybe they know and are just blindly going for what they want rather than what they need.“So..” Aunt Sarah started, swallowing hard as she spoke. “There's another woman..?” she asked.“Hmm!” I nodded.There's nothing to hide anymore as they all are making a move already. Miranda, she could be in danger at any time and the only person to help me out with her safety now is my aunt. She's the last person I would want to keep Miranda away from.“Do they know about it yet..?” She asked again, finding it hard to believe. “Maxwell knows as well as Alex. Aside from them both, no one else from the family..” I explained, pressing further.“The Silverstein.. they must know about her to have come prepared with a marriage proposal. Holy!!” I
Miranda's POVI felt weak, drowned in my own sweat as I ran towards the hospital reception. The nurse there just kept looking at me and not understanding what I was saying at all because I was a mess. There was only one name on my lips, a single name that had me almost disabled from fear.“C.. Christabel..? Christabel!?” I kept saying, repeating the name and bawling my eyes out.“Who is it, Ms..?” The nurse asked but I can't explain, just how can I..? A very healthy person just typed enthusiastically to me, very much happy about modeling for an endorsement, now where's that healthy person? In the hospital..?“C.. Christabel..” I repeated, breathing harder in minutes that I could collapse any moment soon. My limbs feel weak, and my head..? Both mentally, physically and emotionally, I am drained.I swiped to unlock my phone seeing as repeating just a name wouldn't help. I went to my gallery where I swiped through different folders and pictures and finally, I got one that I was looking f
Edwin's POVWe both stepped out and frustratedly, aunt cursed In the air.“Those god-damned family of yours, scumbags..” She hissed irritatingly.I sighed too, exasperatedly as I turned back to the door. Was this how it has always been? Not to acknowledge one as a family yet.. “How are you..? Are you okay?” Aunt Sarah called from behind.“I am, aunt.” I answered curtly, turning towards her direction and smiling which she did too.“I know, I know..” She said, “You did well,”“Right!?” I uttered, releasing a frustrated sigh. “You're not really going to do what that asshole said right? You're not going to be paired with the Silverstein just for their joy right..? You.. you're not going to force them to take you in right..?” I heard my aunt query rather impatient that it made me frown for a bit.I held on her shoulder, making her face me as she squeezed gently on them to make her at ease.“You saw it too..” I stated simply. “They failed aunt, they are even more worthless now that I thin
Edwin's POV“Have the new team work on the project with the SLL group; we can't have anything go wrong.” I ordered as I stepped into the company.“Yes boss..” Came the answer while we moved further in till my phone vibrated with a message popping on the screen. For a while, I stood still like a brick wall, with my phone held tight in my hand and a slight grin plastering my face.Who would have thought the whole of the Silverstein family and mine would lay low without causing trouble..? Of course, not me because I expected much. They weren't doing anything not because they can't, time is all it takes.From where I stood, I turned back to the direction of the underground pack. A smile still lingered on yet it didn't do much to my anger. I felt my hands clenched as I pressed them on the steering wheel but my breathing was controlled. These people, they're never tired of amazing me, bringing me to a knowledge of how far they can go and a terrifying understanding. In no time, I was in the
Miranda's POVMy eyes stung as I turned to leave, it was my fault that I had a wrong determination and false hope but then, I mustn't have taken up to the fifth step when I was held in a bridal style.“Wh..” interrupted with a peck that asked me not to say another word till I felt I was sitting on a soft comfy bed.I was dumbfounded, I couldn't talk but that didn't mean I wasn't still in pain. I looked at the man that squirted before me and felt worse. His eyes bored into mine. I had to look away but it only gave him room to my neck. I felt him nimble on it and became stiff, his mouth was hit against my skin and his wet tongue continuously drew circles.“What are you doing, Miranda..?” I asked myself and came back to my senses. Slightly pushing him to the back and getting up to move but again, he's fast.This time, his lips slammed hard in mine and I felt him intrude my mouth with his tongue. With how rough it was, it was damn passionate. I didn't know when I relaxed and responded to
Miranda's POVI arrived at work early so I could meet with Edwin. I know he comes early too and would just leave once it's almost time for a normal resume and then be back as the boss he is to be acknowledged and so, I wished to see him.The day before, I kept replaying the recorder, thinking about what there is to do and not wanting to make a mistake. The same mistake I did with Maxwell, thinking I can handle it all. There was this tiny part of me that wished I never made that mistake and it was all because I was blinded and couldn't have possibly met up with Edwin. I had my own business to settle and after the whole scene and after I realized Edwin still cares even while he's yet to know I used to be his friend in school, there was this particular part of me that wants to become closer and accept the fact that I like him. I came to the term that I settled my business already. It never was Edwin's fault that he left me. He was an outcast and now, those family members of his all want
Edwin's POVI stepped into the office the next day, and as usual, they all greeted me but I didn't care to answer. They bowed till I'm out of sight, yet, there's this particular one I can't get to submit to me.I found out Miranda was that same girl I used to be closer to, since I found she worked for Maxwell and quit because she suddenly began to care… I became obsessed. I walked past several of my employees till I got to Miranda's desk, she's there, also greeting and bowing like the rest.One moment, I stopped in my tracks and it felt like my whole body became hot and stiff. Shit.. I remembered all that transpired between us, the conversation we had before. I couldn't help it. The energy that was sipping through was that of anger. I wanted to know, to understand and become closer but I guess she likes both of my brother's and would work with them to get to me.How greedy! Being involved with three brothers that were constantly backstabbing themselves. She's going to get the project
Miranda's POV“Mr Alex..?” I called, shocked to the bone that he was there or might have been there but he seemed calm.“Hi, representative. '' He greeted me, smiling awkwardly at me.“What are you.. I mean” I stuttered, finding it hard to ask a question that bugged my entire being.“You mean?” he scrutinize his eyes at me for a while, coming closer than expected till he let out a hearty chuckle that had my biting on my lips in embarrassment.“I came to see my brother that's always locked indoors, instead I came face to face with his personal assistant.. that works just fine for me. It means he isn't just indoors doing nothing..” He ranted.“Oh, that..” I said back, feeling how hot my cheek is, I can tell they're a tomato red already. He chuckled again and this time, tucked my hair to my ears to have a better view at my already colored face, shit..!“Alright, let's go shall we?” he asked and didn't wait for an answer when he pulled me by my hand.All eyes turned in our direction, th
Miranda's POVIt becomes easier when there's no interest in negative thoughts. The SLL group finally signed the contract and became a team with us. Everything was going just as expected but then, the sound of a knock on my desk drew me back to life and almost immediately, I frowned.“Did I disturb our newly found representative..?” I could tell of the sarcasm beneath the voice. I looked up only to find the company's manager, staring back at me.“I am so sorry…” I pleaded, immediately getting on my feet.He looked more like a person that wouldn't want a no for an answer. Almost carrying Edwin's aura but then, there's something spectacular about Edwin's that this young man here doesn't have. Shit..! Why do I think of him?“No need to be. I just wanted to see the new representative of the company that has been able to pull my brother's attention. It turned out to be you,” He continued. I couldn't help but scrutinize my eyes. He's Edwin's brother..? It was confusing but somehow, it wasn'
