Chapter3

Sheena woke up feeling a strong, splitting headache with her mind completely fogged. It felt like her head was going to split into two unequal parts.

She massaged her temple and tried to get out of the bed. She turned to sit up when her eyes caught the glass and vial of pills on the bedside table with a folded note beside it.

She quickly grabbed the vial, took out two pills, and popped them into her mouth. She took the glass and washed the pills down with water.

Almost instantly, Sheena felt the ache slowly relieve her with the fog in her mind gradually clearing.

She picked up the note, hoping it would help her remember the events of last night and how she ended up in this very lovely and expensive-looking room. She opened it and read slowly:

'Hey there, good morning.

Here's a glass of water and painkillers, because I'm sure you'll need them when you wake up. I had an absolutely lovely time last night and while I do not regret it, I'm sorry for what we did. If I had known it was your first, I wouldn't have. I didn't leave my number because I wasn't sure if you'd want to meet again. I'll just have to leave it to fate to decide if we'll meet again.

Jake Cross.

'Jake Cross.' Sheena muttered to herself.

Her mind cleared completely and the entire events of last night came flooding back as soon as she read the last line of the letter and mentioned the name of her “lucky handsome bloke”.

Her face flushed crimson pink as she remembered the crazy, sexy, and kinky things she and Jake did with both their bodies the entire night.

And while she had nothing to compare it to, Sheena felt last night's lovemaking was the best she had ever had.

Although, whilst he was at times aggressive when he needed to be, Jake was a gentle lover who spent more time making sure she was satisfied and touched at the right and most erogenous parts of her sexually heated body.

They had made love five times that night and she had been entirely spent and satisfied by the end of it all and she hoped - heck, she knew - her “lucky handsome bloke" was equally very satisfied too.

She remembered how he had climaxed so many times but still demanded they go at it again and again until they became spent and laid down, falling asleep just before dawn. She wondered how he managed to wake up so early to leave, despite them having less than 2 hours of sleep before morning.

Sheena found herself smiling sheepishly as she hugged the pillow closer to herself. It still had his musky scent on it.

He smelt like green citrus and fine cedar wood and she drew in a sharp intake of breath to inhale his sweet smell again.

She was still lost in the bliss of last night's romp when the faint sound of her phone ringing brought her back from her daydreaming.

She scanned the room for her purse and saw it lying beside the heap near her gown and undergarments on the floor. Before she could bring the phone out of her purse, the call had already ended.

She pressed the power button and opened the phone to identify who the caller was.

Sheena gasped involuntarily as she saw the notification of a hundred and ten (110) missed calls on her phone screen.

Forty of them were from Elena with half of them being from last night, probably after she left with Jake without informing her.

Fifty were from her father while the rest were from two of her friends and four other numbers she didn't have stored on her phone.

Sheena wondered why they had called so many times. Didn't they know she was no longer a kid? She was way past 18 and would be turning 20 barely three months from now for crying out loud!

Sheena cleared all of the missed call notifications to see over 60 message notifications at the bottom.

She scrolled randomly through them, wondering why they were so many until one of the messages caught her attention and made her jolt out of bed, hurriedly dress up and run out of the guest house in search of a cab.

The message was from Elena and it read:

Sheena!!!!!! Where the hell are you?! Dad is worried and furious. The wedding starts in less than an hour!!!!!

'Our aim for the new quarter is to improve the quality of our cyber security systems, especially with the C-tech contract nearing its commencement. We hope to……’

The dark-skinned man with big nerdy glasses, dressed in what looked more like a lady suit, continued explaining the tech jargon on the projector screen, slide after slide in front of the 4-man panel present in the dimly lit small but exquisite-looking meeting room.

Jake Cross who was seated at the head of the table was physically present in the hall but his mind was far away from the things being said and done in the room.

He couldn't take his mind away from the wild and exhilarating events of last night.

Jake Cross wasn't one to easily succumb to his sexual urges, and he most certainly wasn't one to engage in a whimper sex or one-night stand, especially after a first meet.

He'd normally taken the first and even the second meeting to know everything about the lady to see if everything ticked with his background check on her. And that included her relationship status, work, family, health status, etc.

Jake Cross valued honesty and loyalty and he prided himself in being a one-woman man.

He was in a relationship, sort of, with Annabelle, his girlfriend of 6 months, and how he ended up breaking his code of conduct and cheating on her with the “blue-eyed goddess” remained a mystery to him.

He wished he had left his number in the note to see if she would have called, cos frankly he wanted to see her again and if possible, redo the entire events of last night multiple times again.

His mind involuntarily replayed the events of last night vividly in his subconscious, his face contorting into a sheepish grin.
