"Hope I didn't go over board." he whispered while kissing my forehead.

I shook my head then kissed him on his lips savouring everything in.

"You should probably get ready for your meeting." I reminded him.

For a while there he cuddle up in my arms gently toying with my breast.

"You are coming with me." he stated.

Soon we were in the shower but that didn't go so well as planned. We ended up messing around. By the time we left his home it was already dark outside. He had several missed calls that he ended up typing "am on my way" text without caring for how long he had delayed whatever he was supposed to do.

For the last three years since I've know him, Harvey Douglas isn't the type to explain in details whatever the hell he wanted to do. It's was figure out for yourself thingy. I hard to learn about him the hard way. Now that I know few of his specks I kind of understand why he is that way.

"Where are we going?" I asked once we settled in his range rover.

"Call Sam don't forget to send her the location. Am pretty sure you'll be bored when I leave for the meeting." he spoke while giving me his phone to see the location.

"Elevate sky?" I asked confused. " This is where the meeting is?"

He eyed me for a second there before getting  his attention back on the road.

"Can't I?" he spoke.

"I don't mean it like that but..."

"No but's missy." he cut me in.

I knew where my opinion was needed and where it wasn't needed. Right now was the perfect time for not being needed theory was in use. There I was calling Sam to meet up at the night club. Soon I disconnected the line when she agreed to come. Suddenly the car came to a halt.

"You know I just don't get you. One moment we are cool the next it's a bomb last." he spoke calmly yet his voice sounded cranky.

"What are you talking about?"I asked my eyes still focused on the road.

" Forget it. "

Couple of minutes later we were driving down the block entering the street where I could see Elevate Sky night club neon lights.

" Go in, I'll find a place to park. "

Didn't want to be seen as clingy so I decided to alight at the entrance.

" Don't wait for me have fun. I'll come get you when am done." he said then drove off.

That didn't seat well in my stomach. Plus the cold wind hit my tummy creating goosebumps all over me. This tank top wasn't helping at all. If I'd known I'd be left in the cold I could have carried a jacket. Let alone that the mini skirt I wore was way worse, my legs were exposed to the cold. Soon I made my way in before I could die of vein numbness due to the cold weather of the night.

"Sam, I wasn't expecting you this soon." I stated as I took a seat near where she was seated.

"What happened? Did you solve your so called fights with Harvey that he let you off the hook?" she asked sipping her wine.

"You wish. He came for a so called meeting." I said.

Couple of minutes of chatting with her I ordered something light for myself. Did not want to see Harvey up my neck when I get drank again. I embarrassed myself once, not gonna happen twice.

"Fine then let's enjoy ourselves for the rest of the night." she spoke excitedly.

"I can't get drank. He might get mad again."

"Seriously Bel, this ain't you. What have you done to my best friend? Bring her back." she demanded.

I took my glass with the alcohol content in it gulped it down my throat then looked at her with a 'Whatever' look.

"Now we are talking." she spoke cheerful.

The night went by smoothly. We both got drank but not that much just enough to do silly stuffs like laughing out loud, dancing indesent and talking to strangers who shoo us away afterwards.

"I need to use the bathroom." I told Sam while getting up.

"Should I come?"she asked drunkly.

" I can handle myself. "

With that I made way through the crowd pushing people away while walking. I can't say I entirely walked but I was pushed all round till I made way to the direction of the restrooms. I sat there while my head spinned as I releave myself.

Suddenly I heard a knock on the door.

"Occupied find another stall." I shouted.

Then the second and the third. This person must be crazy. Quickly I finished peeing and put my pants back on. I had the intention of slapping the person across the cheek for disturbance once I opened the door.

"Aidan." I found myself saying his name once I saw who the person was.

My mind must be playing tricks on me. There I was rubbing my eyes harshly before I opened them again, "I must be dreaming." I spoke out loud.

Upon opening, there he was. Standing in front of me. Eyes dead stare in mine. I didn't know the color of his eyes but I bet they were beautiful. The way he looked made me drown into him. So embarrassing yet I didn't want to break our contact.

"You are damn drank."

This is the first time I have ever heard such a deep manly voice speak. It was so good in my ears that I wanted to always hear him speak.

"Sorry."

Soon he came a little closer. "I mean you look cute." he stated.

This messed me up big time. His rose mint scent hit my nostrils and the only air I could breath was his. Shirt half buttoned but only three opened revealing parts of a tattoo that he had on him. His frame was larger compared to mine making me feel so small and submissive.

    "My eyes are up here." he spoke while tilting my face back to his eyes with his index finger. I did not notice how my eyes went from eyes to chest, what made me nervous was how he looked at me with so much lust. His lips were plum that I wanted to have a taste too. " Want a taste?"he asked out of the blues. This got me off guard. I blushed. He must have seen it since he aligned his eyes with mine. Doing the three triangle formula from my eyes to my lips then back to my eyes. " What are you doing? "I asked pushing him slightly away. " I like you. "he stated blindly. " What! You pervert.

    Belinda "Where have you been?" Harvey asked as I came closer to him. "Ladies room." "Let's go. I'll get you home first." he stated. "Why the hurry?"I asked taking my hand bag while signalling for Sam to stand we are about to leave. " Tomorrow I'll be heading to Texas for a business meeting. "he stated. " What! "I spoke out loudly. He only eyed me for a second there before he got a call. By the looks of it, it was an emergency one. " Wait here I'll go take this. " Couple of minutes late he was back. " Sam can I trust you with Bel, to take her home?"He asked her. " Yah sure. "she responded. " Sorry babe I know this is so sudden but I have to go. You get home safely. I'll call you when I get there. " A simple peck was all that he could afford. Soon he was nowhere to be seen. Sam came running up to me. " Now we have the night to ourselves." she screamed at the top of her lungs. That moment, I know I should be happy but I don't know why I had a bad gut feeling about all thi

    For couple of seconds he stared at me before taking a step in."So where am I going to sleep if you take the whole room to yourself?" He asked."This is your room?" I asked curiously.No wonder it smelt more like him. I did think about it but pushed the thought away when he didn't complain at first. "I had no idea. I thought it was a guest room or something..." I spoke shyly. "Guest room on the upper deck. Seriously." he teased. "You are so bad at guessing. You do know that. Right?" That was more like an insult but judging from everything he had I'd say that's where all this money had gotten him into. Bad behaviour accompanied by money. "You spaced. Mind telling me what your pretty little brain was working on?" He spoke while slowly taking steps towards me.Felt nervous instantly and stepped away. The next thing I find myself in his arms."If we are going to share the room, I'll put up some rules." I stated in order to avoid the awkwardness I felt inside as his tight grip on my

    Quickly I crouched, leaned forward past his arms and walked away to the changing room. My instincts kicked in when I felt him following close behind me. "So you are just going to watch me change or what?" I asked once we stepped in the changing room. "Remember when I told you in the shower to let me help?" He asked coming closer, eyes fixed on mine. "So... Are you going to help me change?" I whispered. Whatever was going on in his mind I could tell he was nowhere being a normal guy. He was more like a physho or maybe worse. "Do you...want me...to."He dragged. Slowly, I pushed him out and locked myself in. The nerve of this guy. He was beyond any expectation I had for the rich. It was impossible to believe that this world could produce such a perverted and despicable guy like him.Taking my time I dried myself and went to the extent of using his body lotion on my self. Putting on his t-shirt I regretted picking that up. Yes it was big enough for me to fit in but it w

    "You two never ceaze to amaze me. Bel, it has been three fucking years and still that kind of affection you two emit, it's still fucking fresh." she spoke her mind out loud as we entered the car.

    Early bird catches the worm. I learned it the hard way. There I was running my way to the direction of the cafe. Upon seeing the line I almost thought about skipping breakfast but my tummy said otherwise. Indeed it was a long one, I was already late for my meet up with Douglas. We do business together , thus he needed us to discuss important details in person. '' Shit this is not going to work out for me.'' i complained out loud. ''Late for work?'' I heard a male voice behind me. "Yah." I stated going back to check what the time was. "You are not much of a talker. Ain't you?" he asked. "Am kinda hungry and the line isn't helping much." I complained going back to what I had been doing on my phone. "Wait there I'll go get you something. What do you need?" he asked leaning in slightly. "Black coffee and vanilla croissants." I stated. "Alright." Ten minutes later it was already his turn to order. He had been standing in line while I enjoyed my rest at the furthest end of

    'I'll be there in twenty.'' Then I disconnected. I got into action dolling myself up. A simple purple tight jumpsuit , a fluffy short jacket and sneakers. I was ready to go. On top I added a black shoulder bag to match the outfit. Quickly I marched out , locked the door and hurried down the hallway. The twenty minutes were already down to negative ten. The only car I saw was a black gladiator jeep. There was a man standing next to it. By the looks of it I don't suppose he is the owner of the jeep. Upon seeing me he walked to where I stood. ''Miss. Nadia.'' He wanted to confirm. ''The one and only.'' Soon I boarded the car and we hit the road. Down the main road in Rochester , two blocks we were driving down 152 Baden street. He took a detour of the main road to a narrow road that led straight to a government private chopper helipad. ''I believe this is my last stop.'' He spoke while slowing down and stopped the car.

    It has been two weeks since my argument with Harvey. He's been nothing but an overprotective daddy. Everywhere I go he makes me go with bodyguards around. Sam is the one suffering so much since I don't mind but she does. Night clubs has been a plaque to us. If not him being with us then we are stuck in the apartment.Most times am the one on the loosing end since Sam can decide to go out, live her life without me. Am stuck at either his home or mine watching movies and living a boring life. I loved being in his house since his bed is always neat and soft. "Bell." Harvey snapped his fingers to get my attention. "Whats on your mind?" he asked."Just bored.""You are tired of me already." he joked."What! No!"I pecked his lips coming on top of him."You know I'd never get tired of you."He pulled me closer, rolled my hair in his palm as he smashed his lips against mine. It was fierce yet I loved it. At first he was being friendly teasing me but things got heated as we progressed. Sligh

    "I know this is not my place to say this but..." He dragged. "It's okay. Am all ears." "He's just angry, give him some time he'll come around. Right now he's just disappointed." he stated. "I know but why would he be disappointed. It just slipped my mind about telling him I was going to accompany Sam." I said. "The person who called him am sure he was the one at fault. In Spyce Astoria, he also has enemies there. I bet they kind of hit the nerve when they delivered the message. Plus..." he dragged the last part. "Plus what?" I asked. "Plus the people you were in company with they are dangerous so stay away." he warned. So bad I wanted him to elaborate more and in details but the chopper wasn't going to let me stay for a second more. I bid him bye and soon we were in air going home. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * " My head hurts so bad. "Sam complained the moment she woke up. " Meds on the counter take them.

    "Did you discuss with him about marriage?" Sam asked loud enough that the mandem heard what we were talking about. Everyone looked at us as if they too wanted to know the full details about my marriage. "Sh!" I shushed her looking away. "You are getting married?" Neal asked surprised."Not in a million years." I stated as a hint of embarrassment flushed my face, dager eyes fixed on Sam afterwards. She was the one who started this whole discussion."Great. I was a little worried that my pal here won't have someone to spend his life with." Neal spoke looking past me to the dangerous stranger who had caught my eye. For a second there our eyes met. What felt like an eternity was swap in just mere seconds before he broke the contant getting back to his half filled glass of whisky. That might have bunned since he gulped it down dry, but to my surprise he had no expression at all. In fact he poured another glass for himself and drank the same way as the first time. I might have expected
