Laura came back downstairs and was on her way to welcome a familiar guest when a strong hand gently held her elbow. She turned to see a handsome face smiling down at her.

"Hi beautiful." The man said.

"Hi." She hesitantly replied.

"Laura, right?" He asked.

"Yes," She replied. "How did you know my name?"

He smiled in amusement. "I am very good at guessing the names of beautiful women like you."

Laura rolled her eyes.

"Especially one that has caught my attention."

"Oh" was all she could manage to say.

"I'm Ronald Daniels," He introduced, letting out his hand for a handshake. "But you can call me Ron."

"Well, you already know my name."

Laura said, receiving his hand and he brought her hand to his lips and kissed it. Her mind wandered to exactly what had happened earlier with the other hunk.

"You are beautiful."

"Thank you."

"I've never seen you around before." He said. "Especially in these parties."

Laura shrugged her pretty shoulders. "You can't see everyone."

"Not when the woman is this beautiful." He said huskily and she smirked.

"Actually, the celebrant is my father." She said and his eyes widened.

"You are Chief West's daughter?" He asked and she nodded. "Why, I never knew. I'm only familiar with his two other daughters, I never knew he had a third and such a beautiful one at that."

Laura wasn't surprised that people didn't know her, especially as Chief West's daughter, because her stepmother always took her stepsisters to such social gatherings and they never took her with them.

"Why haven't I seen you around before?" He asked, obviously still shocked.

"Well, let's say because I'm hardly around." She replied. "I'm actually writing my final exams in the university now so I hardly have time for social events."

"Ohhh, I see, I see. That explains it." He said and smiled. "Well, I'm a worker, obviously. CEO of Dan Oils."

"Hmm, that's big." She simply replied and that was not the reaction he was expecting.

Women were always all over him, whether obtrusively or unobtrusively. But this particular girl remained cool like it meant nothing to her and that interested, impressed and intrigued him more.

❤❤❤

Greg's eyes kept drifting towards where the other two were.

He knew Ronald, he would waste no time in trying to take the girl to his bed.

Not that he himself wouldn't, in fact, he would give anything to have her body right beneath him because just looking at her did strong things to his body, mind and senses.

But the thought of Ronald getting his rotten hands on her pure skin did angry things to his mind and he wished there was a way he could separate the two of them before such a thing occurred even though he had no right over her.

"You've not been listening to me!"

A loud pitched voice screamed in his eyes and he quickly turned, almost forgotten he was with Samantha.

"Of course I have, why would you say that?"

"You've not been looking at me. Or am I not beautiful enough?"

"Don't say that." He consoled, "Do you look at the mirror? You are an epitome of beauty."

Satisfied with that, she smiled. "That's more like it, thank you."

Greg noticed a familiar face coming towards him. Sophia. His face lit up and for the first time in a long time, he was actually very happy to see her.

"Greg?"

"Sophia darling!" Greg embraced her harder than he should. "You look extremely beautiful tonight."

"Uh.. thanks?" Sophia stuttered, surprised and confused on this new Greg before her.

But she knew him, he could be cunning at times to get what he wanted.

She looked at the other lady who had a frown on her pretty face and smirked. As much as she wanted to believe that Greg was serious, she thought better about it. She would please him by playing the game he was throwing her way.

"Oh darling, sorry to keep you waiting, I was held in traffic." She said sweetly, leaning into him.

"It's alright baby..." He turned to face Samantha and the look on her face amused him greatly. "Let me go get you ladies some drinks while you get to know each other. I'll be right back." He said, registering the look of horror on both their faces and left anyways, not giving them a chance to reply.

He had only one intention in mind and that was getting his angel away from that demon that called himself Ronald.

    Laura felt a light touch on her lower back and turned to see who it was. She found herself looking up at dark, piercing eyes in a strong, tanned and handsome face then stiffened when she recognised him. "Sorry I took long in getting the drink my dear, here you go." Greg smiled charmingly at her confused face as he gave her the drink, with a glint in his eyes that hypnotized her into doing what he wanted. "Uh, thanks...for the drink." She replied, collecting the glass from him but didn't drink the content. "Oh, you have company," he commented, finally acknowledging Ronald's presence. "How's your life, Daniels?""I'm always good, as you know." Ronald replied with a smirk. "And how's yours, Williams?""Never better." Greg answered drily and turned to face a confused Laura. He offered her an arm which she automatically accepted and he smiled triumphantly when Ronald scowled. "Have a good night, Daniels." He said and left immediately with Laura. Ronald's scowl deepened. How dare he?

    It had been more than a month since Chief West's birthday party. More than a month since he last saw his curvy beauty. He wondered if he had affected her that night. He wondered if she thought of him the way he thought of her. He knew he was rich and attractive and could get any woman he wanted, but from the look of things, he knew that getting this particular girl would require more work than with other women he had had. Though she seemed to like him that night but he wasn't sure because he didn't get to spend much time with her, thanks to her stepmother and sisters. He paused. But what did he really want from her? To have a one night stand with her, get her out of his system and forget about her? Or to keep her for a little while longer than he kept the other women he had had. He didn't know. All he knew was that he wanted her and wouldn't stop until he claimed that elegant body. He snapped out of his thoughts at the sound of the intercom. "Sir, should I bring over the files f

    "You won't do that!" She exclaimed in horror, not believing what she just heard. "Watch me." He took a step toward her and she froze, realizing he was serious, then automatically took a step backward. "Alright, alright!" She exclaimed breathlessly and he smiled in triumph and went over to the other side of the car, opening the door for her. "But this is kidnapping!""Whatever you call it." He said in a bored tone. She reluctantly went into the car and crossed her hands over her chest. She scoffed. He was more annoying than she thought. He went back to the other side, entered the car and closed the door, then zoomed off. The close confines of the car giving a kind of intimacy that Laura felt uncomfortable in. "Will you slow down a little?" She cried when he swerved the car too harshly. "Am not ready to die yet."He chuckled, a husky, nice and relaxing sound. "But you want to go to heaven.""Of course I want to go to heaven."She answered like a child earning another amused

    "Hello Lizzy." "Lau!" Elizabeth Michaels' cheerful high pitched voice came on the line. "Don't tell me you're still awake at this hour or did I wake you up?" Lizzy, as she was called for short, was her best friend. Her only friend in fact. They met in their first year at the university and just like Laura, she was also from a rich family. Her father owned hotels and her mother was a lawyer, while her elder brother assisted their father in controlling the family business. She was studying the same course with Laura in school and was the only one that stood up for Laura against her step family and bullies, the girl could use her mouth to put someone in their place and on many occasions, she had been Laura's hero and was fiercely protective of her. "Not...really." Laura answered softly trying not to sniff and Lizzy chuckled. "That's a lie. From the dullness of your voice, I can tell that I was the one that woke you up. Sorry, couldn't sleep, so I decided to disturb a few people." L

    "Hello my sweet coconut." A familiar husky voice came on the line and Laura gasped. "G-Greg?"Laura immediately felt Lizzy's excited gaze on her as she listened with ardour with her hand tucked beneath her jaw. "The very one, baby." Greg replied, his voice laced with amusement. "H-how did you get my number?"Laura asked. "I have my ways darling, how are you?""I'm...fine?" She voiced out, still shocked that he called her. He chuckled. "You're not sure if you are?""I'm fine...fine thank you.""I promised to call you the next day.""Why tonight then?" She asked regaining her composure. "This is almost 1am, Miss. I made that promise yesterday." He replied triumphantly and she said nothing, in embarrassment. "And I didn't expect you'd be up at this hour. Or did my call wake you from your beauty sleep?"She rolled her eyes. First Lizzy, now Greg. "No I am not sleeping yet." She replied quietly. "Mm, someone is missing me."Greg purred. "What? No way! There's nothing there to miss

    "Your father called this morning to tell me to permit you to go to a dinner date with a man." The two girls froze as they looked at each other, eyes wide as a result of the just uttered words that came from Celina."Hello? Are you there?" Celina asked from the other end of the line. "Yes, yes I am." Laura replied breathlessly. "Who is this man, Laura?" Celina asked in a creepily low voice. "I...I don't know what you are talking about." Laura muttered. "Don't play games with me, child!"Celina exclaimed harshly. "I'm not playing any game with you!" Laura exclaimed as well. "Then tell me who he is!""I just told you, I don't know!""You are a liar!""I don't know why you are saying this but dad didn't even call me!"She heard Celina take a deep breath. "Get back to the house immediately."Celina said. "But...""Now!"And the call ended. "That witch." Lizzy commented. "Now she's been all bossy.""And it seems I have no choice but to obey the boss." Laura said with a grimace.

    Laura stood before the full length mirror gaping at the reflection that gaped back at her. She couldn't believe her eyes. The ordinary Laura had been transformed into a very glamorous and gorgeous Laura. Lizzy had always been a good makeup artiste. "I look..."She was lost for words. "Extremely beautiful, I know," Lizzy finished for her. "Gorgeous, sumptuous, delicious, luscious, glorious, lustrous-""Lizzy!" Laura rolled her eyes. "You sure have a way with words."Lizzy grinned. "I know, right? But really baby gurl, you look extremely...hawt!""Thanks." Laura smiled warmly. "And all thanks to you my love, your handwork made me look this way.""You're always welcome sweetie, just make sure you do more than just slaying him with your looks."Lizzy winked. "Lizzy! Oh my God, how did I ever end up with you?"Lizzy grinned foolishly and pretended to be in thought. "Because you love me, and can't do without me, and..."Laura rolled her eyes. "Yea right."She turned to the mirror once m

    Laura didn't want the night to end. She was having a great time with Greg who was very good company and was, surprisingly funny. She had been laughing her heart out as their dinner progressed and she had wished she didn't have a family to go back to, that she lived alone, so that she could go back home whenever she liked. After they finished their meal, they went out to the large balcony with their drinks and stood, taking in the wonderful view of the city in comfortable silence. "Beautiful, isn't it?" She asked softly, gazing down at the vibrant lights coming from various beautiful buildings in the city, as well as the cars on the road that looked like moving light bulbs and the street lights adding more to the view. "Yes, beautiful." He murmured and she turned to him. He was looking at her and then it was obvious that he wasn't referring to the city's view as beautiful. Blushing, she looked away and cleared her throat. "You know," he continued and she looked up at him. "I've a

    She placed her hand on her protruded tummy and smiled as she watched her husband and son, their heads bent in concentration and with cute matching frowns on their foreheads as they went through the book before them. They were so similar, both in appearance and in character. She sighed in contentment.It had been a very blissful three years. Too blissful that she found it terrifying. It all seemed too good to be true at the initial stage but when she thought about everything she had gone through, she realized that she deserved every happiness that came to her. Her husband, her son and the baby in her womb who, she always felt couldn't wait to come into the world and meet it's family.A small cloud of sadness settled on her face as she thought of her step mother, Celina.

    "No way!" Celina boomed pacing up and down the living room."It is what it is, mother."Samantha said tearfully as she sat on the couch with a mug of tea in her hands, legs tucked in. "I will not allow this to happen!""It already has!" Samantha snapped in annoyance. "Greg already knows that Sydney is not his son and asides that, I believe he has regained his memory. It's over mum.""No it's not!" Celina said stubbornly. "This can't be over, not after everything we did to get you to that position.""Mum you don't understand," Samantha said wearily. "I already confessed to Greg that Sydney is not his! And there's no way he's gonna take me back after catching me in bed with that moron!""Well you are as much of a moron as that fool he caught you in his bed with." Celina snapped. "How could you be so stupid and careless? Sleeping with another man in his house, in his bedroom! What kind of stupidity is that?""I wasn't expecting him until in the evening!""And so what you foolish child?

    Laura slid out of his suddenly limp embrace and excused herself, not missing the frown of confusion, curiosity and dread on his face.She went into the bedroom and to Cameron's cot and realized he was only having a bad dream. After calming him down and putting him to sleep again, she returned to the sitting room.He was standing with his back to her staring at a painting. His stance oozed power and sexual appeal and she mentally slapped herself for harboring immoral thoughts."That was a baby, wasn't it?" He asked in a murmur."Yes, obviously." She replied curtly."Whose child is it?" He asked, turning to face her."None of your business." She said nonchalantly.He took a dangerous step towards her. "Laura. Whose. Child. Was that?"She glared at him for seconds then rolled her eyes."Well since you're been insistent, he's my child."Time stood still as he froze at her announcement. Then he vaguely remembered that she did have a son. He had found out when he went through her profile

    She was his.And he'd be damned if he let another man have her.How had things gotten to this? How was he on the verge of losing his one true love? He shook his head as he blamed the accident and loss of his memory for his current predicament.But most importantly. How was he going to win her back?He knew she could be headstrong and determined sometimes but he had to do all he could to get her back. She was the light in his dark world.

    Laura looked at Dexter with a small loving smile as he waited for an answer, though her mind was muddled and her heart was beating erratically. She sighed.She was tired. Tired of fighting for a lost cause. Who was she deceiving? Greg was lost to her forever. She could never get him back. She didn't even know whether she still wanted him after everything he had done to her. She had been patient. For over a year she had been hoping he would one day come to remember her for who she really was and what she had once meant to him. But all proved abortive and the worst of it all was the sack letter she had received from him after a night of intense lovemaking and worse still, the second dreaded letter that tore at her heart whenever she thought of it.The accident had reborn him into a beast.Anger at him beclouded her heart and she discovered there was no soft spot for him in her heart any longer.He was her son's father, yes.

    As early as five in the morning, he woke up. He blinked his eyes as he tried to get them adjusted to the little light coming in from the moon through the window. Then he felt softness pressed warmly against him and he looked down to behold her calm sleeping glorious face illuminated by the morning moonlight and everything that had happened the previous night and the early hours of the morning came rushing into his head.They had had sex. No. The better word was, they had made love. He had tried to take it as just casual sex during the deed, but the wave of emotions and passion that flowed between them was so intense that it couldn't be described as just casual sex. If felt so natural. So right. He didn't feel guilty which made him wonder why. No matter how hard he forced himself to feel guilty, something kept telling him that he hadn't done anything wrong.He looked at her again. She was so beautiful.

    Greg didn't know how Laura West managed to convince him to wait in her house before his mechanic comes to fix his car. He couldn't even find any issue with the car and it had been a long time since that particular car had had any issue.He had called the vehicle tech but the bastard had told him that he was out of town at the meantime but would be with him in the next one hour thirty minutes. One hour thirty minutes! Alone with this woman in a house! He considered getting a taxi and sending someone to come get his car tomorrow but why the hell wasn't he getting that taxi?A slender hand with a glass of water appeared in his vision and he blinked remembering that he had asked for the water."Thanks."
