14. WONDERS OF WORKING

last update Last Updated: 2024-05-06 16:27:13

The work I had would give a bull an overload.

I had spent two full days buying online with no care for the time nor money.

A week later I had a five metre standing desk. Walking around it took some energy. On it was a custom fifty seven inch ultrawide monitor. My office iPad was before me, my keyboard down.

The extra adjoined space was turned to a planning and meeting room. It had a smart table that blew even my mind. You could write and draw on it, not just one person but multiple people could draw a design together on the table!

The chairs were the best since many hours would be spent in the office and the walls were covered by screens which were responsive to touch meaning we could write, draw, basically do anything we can do on the iPads.

I had turned my office into a tech’s heaven.

The IT guys couldn’t stop marveling, Naomi even screamed and jumped around as we set up everything.

A coach sat opposite my office desk, a cute bookshelf next to it and a few plants here and th

    “It’s fifteen minutes to nine!”It was the only greeting I would get. Sweat beads rolled down my forehead from running and panicking.I threw my bags everywhere, throwing my shoes off and pulling clothing as I went.I shut the bathroom door.My hands were shaking as I moved as fast as I could.It felt as if I had eight hands as I took the shortest shower I ever would in my whole life.I had planned to soak and shave but who was I kidding. I sneaked in a two minutes shave of my legs and armpits.“ Come on woman!”I jumped out, if not in my di

    My husband and I were making memories, just not the ones you would think.I was as straight as a board.Walking, well, it was just the strut of the legs like a Barbie doll forced to catwalk.The shoes which I had bought at the very same shop were never meant to be worn in my belief.So much pain at the point I couldn’t even pinpoint where the poison was. My husband had marched away three minutes ago to the car. I had slowly walked after him thinking I would die.I could not even bend my neck. At that point I was moving by God’s grace.Each breath taken brought immense pain. The push and fall of my chest stirred something in my stomach which was surely cur

It hit like a wrecking ball.I shook my head trying to clear my head with no luck.Eyes stared still, waiting.“Are you okay sweety?”All I could do was nod my head and force a smile.My posture bent a little, thinking that would ease the pain but nope.Just a few more hours, I told myself. The conversation continued without me then I felt something else snap and shit I couldn’t take it anymore.I turned so fas

    Silence. I was not sure if it was awkward. Footfalls echoed in our little room, the curtain hiding us away from the rest of the floor. My husband pushed up, his arms on his chest before they lowered and he began pacing again. Never mind that I had three plastic hard wires just hanging from my belly. Never mind the fact that I was only in my underwear, my breast wrapped in a bandeau top they had made for me from bandages. Beside that I was peachy, real peachy. The curtain flew open. “Miss Madroi, sorry for the delay, your doctor is a few minutes away. I will be the assisting nurse.” The woman said, wearing pink scrubs. She wrote on my chart then walked out to push in what I would was an ultrasound and set it up. I was just happy that after thirty minutes of being there, they were finally going to pull out the freaking wires and I could go die in my bed. Surely I had lost interest in speaking, needing to be done for the night. Most calls went unanswered by my husband and th

    It was security I never realized I craved. The curve of my fingers on his shirt. His warmth sifted through the hospital sweats I had been gifted. It was his scent flowing through my nostrils and somehow I could feel it’s effect down to my toes. I picked it apart ingredient by ingredient as if I were suddenly an expert on scents. It was the feel of his muscles just fabrics away. It was always romantic when a guy carried a woman in the movies and I had always scoffed because I was convinced no man would carry me. Storm held me to him even in the car. I lay on him fighting the clouds of fatigue with exhaustion wilting me away. It was just after midnight, the day finally gone with a new one upon us. The date would be marked in my journal because of how eventful it was. I held on as if he was my life line. I won’t lie, for me it was magical breathing his scent in, held like a baby by my husband. “You want to get food?” Food was the very reason we were in the predicament we wer

    STORMA devil. A sly wicked devil. My eyes narrowed at Amar who drove us home. Our eyes met at the review mirror and he quickly looked away. I could see that smirk on his face, he found this funny. The cars were all filled with groceries, be sure my wife bought everything the store could offer. And the world would have to drown in hell before I ate anything Brandy cooked. I was sure her only experience in the kitchen was washing dishes. There was no way she was cooking anything I would eat. My head snapped to find her head having fallen on my shoulder. In her hand she clenched the fast food paper bags. I shook my head, not even sure how I felt. I should have been fuming. She made me late then pulled me from negotiating a very important deal for the Gambino cartel. That woman. She could just walk in the mist of deadly men and drag me out. I doubt she knew who I stood with, I doubt she even cared. I threw my arm around her shoulders to steady her. She turned, snuggling into my s

    BRANDYDid I do anything productive during the weekend? Nope. Did I get rest? Nope. It was one movie after another all day and night long. I could do with more rest but I was ready to kick ass Monday morning.. I even put effort on wearing more makeup and did something other than a ponytail with my hair. Well, when it came to clothes I gave up after an hour of coordinating. It was a good thing Storm had his own driver because he could not stand me taking a whole hour finding an outfit for the day. A new week and nothing had changed. Somehow I got more stern faces and the disbelief inched on every face I came across. What did I do? I closed my office door, it clean and fresh. It was a bit sunny so I opened the windows, letting the sounds of the city greet me. A knock sent me jumping, eyes wide as I turned to the unexpected sound.“Come in.” The click of the heels and wow, legs, such gorgeous legs so early in the morning. I felt like a creep, shaking the thought from my head.

    ONE YEAR LATERThe phone buzzed and I pressed the receiver button.“Ma’am, a package has arrived for you.”I didn’t even answer. I bolted up the seat and ran for the door. I threw it open, catching the attention of some of my teammates.The paperbag still sat on Kimberly’s desk. I snatched it up, a grin on my face.“Thank you.”I took out my phone, pressing redial as I rushed to the executive’s elevator.“Hi, I am coming up.” I said as soon as the call connected.“I am in the middle o

    Sometimes it just bothered me, how much I wanted to hold him, how much I enjoyed being pasted to my husband. Yes, the night had it’s downs but now that we were a million miles away from the disaster I couldn’t help but smile. Amar opened the door and Storm slid out. I followed after him to stop because he had turned and was now blocking the door. Storm bent down, his hands going to my feet where he unbuckled my heels and slipped them out of my aching feet. It was moments like these where I knew no matter what, I’d fight tooth and nail for us. He wrapped one arm around me, the other still holding my heels and he hefted me towards him. I yelped and giggled, my arms wrapping around his neck. “Storm.” I whispered into him, and blushed even harder as he scooped me up with just one arm. My legs wrapped around his waist and locked at his back. What was he doing? My whole body buzzed with emotions and feelings I could not explain. He would never know what it did to me when he pulled

    I knew how it went but why did it hurt so much this time. As soon as Storm and I approached the door, I let go of his hand. He walked on faster and got in before me into the room. I turned, and walked away from him. When I was far enough I turned around to search for him. Maybe this time he would be looking for me and scold me for leaving his side but he didn’t. I watched as he nodded and greeted those he thought worthy of his greeting. He continued marching on until he was before his father. They talked a little and by then it was obvious that he knew I wasn't by his side or anywhere near him anymore. He didn’t even search for me in the crowd with his eyes. I swallowed, knowing my job was to disappear from sight and not make a mockery of him. The large room was buzzing and as I searched, I did not know a single person there. Some I recognized but most were just strangers to me. I couldn’t stand in a corner all night long. My leg was already giving in notice that it would rais

    “How about this time?”Storm stepped away and I stared at the large mirror. My frown couldn’t get deeper. I thought by refusing to hire a makeup artist then finally failing to do my makeup would persuade Storm from taking me with him. Tell me why he sat down and watched tutorials for an hour before attempting my eyebrows.“No.” I gasped, dropping my shoulders and frowning even deeper. “ It’s horrible.”“Brandy!” He glared at me and I wanted so bad to be so pissed at him but I couldn’t. The Storm I had been getting every single day for the past eight months I would die for. My husband was my best friend. He was my everything.“I don’t want to go, I don’t want to go!&rdquo

    “Get a team to clean it, we won't be staying there for long, and tell Ice to make a presentation of all the land we have, residential.”I shifted only to groan out loud as pain exploded on my side. Shit, this was hell. The pills had worn off and everything was throbbing. My limbs were painfully numb, pins and needles on the entirety of them. I clenched my eyes tighter and buried myself deeper into the warm skin right by me.Warm skin? A cloud fogged my brain, making it hard to think clearly.“Hi.”A voice.I knew that voice.Oohh God, I knew that voice! I wanted to lift my head up but failed so I buried myself deep into h

    My eyes fluttered open and for a second I just lay there, blinking.Something had woken me up yet as I lay there nothing was heard. A shiver ran down my body but I pulled the cover with my arm and closed my eyes.A door opened and my eyes shot wide open. Someone was in my room. Who was it, what did they want?I did not dare ask who it was, just waiting for the inevitable to happen so I could scream my lungs out.Feet suddenly moved across the room then way closer to the bed only to stop. I squeezed my eyes as if that would make the person go away. More feet patting, moving around the bed then a swipe of cool air as the blankets were pulled back.Wait, what?! The scream was bubbling in my chest. T

    STORM’S P.O.V.“Sir, your arm.”I scoffed, turning away from Amar.Damon was naked, body covered in long lashes, blood seeping from the gashes created by my whip.I didn't care that my arm burned and surely bled, soaking the bandages. I didn’t mind that my burned skin was opening new wounds from me flicking my arm so aggressively.A loud angry growl escaped me as I continued whipping this scum. I wanted his skin to peel, I wanted him to writhe in pain.He heaved out and I pulled back, staring at his face which was clean of all the wounds inflicted on him.His teeth were clenched, eyes staring at me with determination.
