Love 'n' lust Love is hurtful
Just like he carried her to the bathroom, he took her back to the bed, pulling the blanket over her."Are you leaving?" She asked."No." He said and joined her in bed, pulling the blanket over himself too. When they had both laid separately for a while, Belle turned to him and decided to ask her thoughts."Why don't you believe in love?" Ben heard her disrupt the silence with a question he was tired of giving answers to."Go to sleep, Belle, I know you are tired." He didn't look at her while he said this so she went closer to him on the bed and laid her head on his chest.He started to caress her hair, it soothed him to do that more than herself."I don't want to hurt you Belle," she heard him say after his caressing hands went from her hair to her arm."Who says I would get hurt?" She asked."Love is hurtful." He told her."Yeah, maybe, but it is also a beautiful thing, you know.""No, it isn't. There is nothing beautiful about love, it just ruins you." He disagreed."Let us not talk
Love 'n' lust Her fault
Crisp-tv media house.Ben just dropped her off. The elevator door was about to close after she got in when Nathan hurried to her. She sighed, wishing the door hadn't been closing slowly."Are you okay?" He asked her while they went up in the elevator together. Belle thought he was asking the obvious, because she knew she didn't look like she was in trouble.She just nodded. Nathan wondered quietly, if she didn't remember they were supposed to go to a coffee place yesterday, he didn't want to remind her, for fear that he might sound stupid so he just sighed inwardly."Mrs Johnson was worried yesterday when you didn't return." He thought he should tell her."I'll explain to her when I get to the office." She smiled."She isn't there...""Oh, she might come later today then." Belle cut him short, trying to not have a conversation with him."No, she won't. She gave birth early this morning, went into labour yesterday." Nathan informed her."O my gosh, really?" She smiled happily."Yeah, a
Love 'n' lust Crying
When both her sister and friend left, Belle sat in her corner and cried. She thought about what Brie said to her before leaving, then she remembered confessing her feelings to Ben and his response. She would be angry at Ben but he had told her from the beginning that he couldn't love her and she was okay with it till recently. She found herself wanting to hear him call her sweeter names, she wanted him to get her flowers, she wanted him to show the world that he was in love with her but that was not going to happen and she knew.After crying, she wiped her tears. Maybe she needed a break from him, she needed to space herself from him because for all she knew, this could be a mere infatuation she felt towards him and nothing more, it had to be.She asked herself how possible it was to develop feelings for someone who you know would never love you back, and so she decided that it was just infatuation.She would stop spending the night with him, maybe return to her sister's apartment.

Love 'n' lust It's complicated
They got to the hospital but were told that Mrs Johnson had already been permitted by the doctor to leave.Nathan knew this before now but needed a good reason earlier to spend time with Belle. "I guess I will just call her to congratulate her," Belle said to herself, disappointed that she couldn't see her to do that in person and also apologize."What did you want to talk about?" She decided to ask Nathan when they got back to his car. She felt like it had lingered too long."Oh that...we should go somewhere, maybe a restaurant, are you hungry?" He asked her, expecting a yes and he got it."Yeah, I am." Belle nodded, she had nothing to lose having some food with him.Nathan had never been happier since he started having feelings for her. He quickly started the car and drove them to a nice restaurant.They were both ushered to a table by the window so they went and took their seats. They were given a menu card to pick a dish from."I will have this," Belle showed the waiter what she
Love 'n' lust Where are you coming from?
While they drove out of the restaurant driveway, Belle had her quiet time to think because Nathan had been silent since her reply back at the restaurant. She thought about Ben then compared him to Nathan. ‘Nathan isn't so a bad person,’ she started to think. Spending time with him today made her reconsider avoiding him all the time before.Meanwhile, Ben was a kind of man she never saw herself falling in love with. She had heard of him previously while still living in her small town with her grandma but never though she would meet him one day.It was funny to her, how she met him. She just wanted a one-time affair but now she was in love with him. "Do I drop you off at the junction here? Or can I take you home?" Nathan's question broke her thoughts."Take me home, I'll direct you there," she replied him. She didn't want to walk all the way to Brie's apartment so she didn't mind if he knew where she stayed now."There won't be a need for that.""Hmmn?""I know the way to your place,"
Love 'n' lust You can't give me your love
"You don't get to tell me who to stay away from or who to relate with, you don't even have a right to be acting the way you are now, we are not in a relationship, are we?" She said her mind to him but realized late, that she shouldn't have.He came to where she stood and had her against the wall. Her breathing got faster because of the way he eyes got scarier."What do you mean by that?" His words were calm, unlike what she expected."...." She said nothing, no words were willing to leave her mouth."I should let you know that I don't like to share what's mine, Belle, and you? You are mine. Whether we are in a relationship or not, you are mine and no one else's. I won't tolerate anyone trying to have with you what I do if that ever happens," he paused and scoffed, "that person is going to pay, Belle."Belle swallowed, trying to ingest his every word."If anyone ever does as much as touching you the way I do, that person will pay with his life. Do you understand?" He looked her in the
Love 'n' lust I'm done, Ben
"No, I didn't." Belle folded her hands as she opposed."I told you that I would think about it and I did today. I'm done, Ben." She heard herself say something she didn't plan on saying. At first, she just wanted a break from him but she just told him that she was ‘done’.As her last three words resounded in her ears, she saw a reaction from him for the first time since she started talking. It was a smile, a scary one."No, you are not." He told her and came to her. She tried to control her breathing when he came back in front of her. "It's my body, I get to decide when I don't want...""Your body belongs to me, Belle." He grabbed her by the waist and made the little space between the vanish. Belle gasped when he suddenly pulled her by the waist.Her breathing could not be controlled now when he brought his lips to her right ear. She heard his magnetic voice tell her;"Think again about your decision, Belle, but this time know that stopping what we have already started is not an optio
Love 'n' lust Do you love her?
A few minutes later, his assistant returned to his office but he didn't stop what he was doing before she walked back in."Sir, I know you asked me to cancel all your appointments but I just went through it again and you planned to see..." Ben stopped typing and set his eyes on her like before, making her keep shut suddenly."You seem to be tired of your job lately." He told her but she shook her head in disagreement. She wasn't tired of her job, she just had to tell him something important.Jenna was here to see him so she wanted to know if to tell her that Mr Larkson didn't want to be disturbed. The last time she told Jenna that he was too busy to see her, he wasn't happy about it."I just want to let you know that..." Jenna walked in before the assistant could mention her name."You were taking so long, I had to let myself in." She told the assistant then came to sit on one of the chairs opposite Ben."Leave," Ben told his assistant and watched her walk out the door hurriedly."You
