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
Love 'n' lust My queen
Brie was still getting out of the cab while Cherry checked for cash in her purse to pay the cab driver.Brie shoved some disturbing hair behind her ears after she got out. On doing that, her eyes spotted Belle getting into a car whose door was been held by Ben."No," she muttered and slapped her forehead."What?" Cherry asked after settling the driver.Brie didn't reply. She just sighed and went towards the entrance to their apartment. Cherry looked around her to depict what tampered with Brie's mood. It was then she saw the black cars driving out in uniform, now she knew."Brie?!" She called and went after her friend.******Belle glanced at Ben occasionally as he drove. He had asked the driver to hand the keys over to him, and his convoys weren't accompanying him anymore.They got to a flower shop. Ben parked the car by the side and came down to open the door for her. There were some people leaving the shop and some standing inside so she was surprised that he was getting the door f
Love 'n' lust Nathan's visit
Belle was sitting in between Ben's thighs on the bed as she stuffed her face with some fries like she wanted. He played with her hair gently as she ate on but that was disrupted when her phone started to ring.She threw the duvet off her, to check for the phone when she heard it. Ben handed it to her from behind. She sighed and shook her head, not believing she had been searching aimlessly for it all the while.The thankful smile that formed on her lips after Ben gave the phone to her disappeared when she saw the name of the person calling on her phone's screen. It was Brie. She decided to pick it up even if she was not ready to speak to her."Heyy," Belle just said."Where are you?" She heard Brie almost immediately."Uhm...""You are with him, aren't you?""I had a rethink and...""O my god, Belle." She heard Brie say frustratingly."What's the point of deciding to stay away from him if you are still going to change your mind?!""..." Belle kept mute, not knowing what to say and conc
Love 'n' lust Clouded by lust
Belle returned with a new glass. Setting it on the table, she joined him on the sofa but gave him some safe distance."Let me do that," he offered to pour some wine for her before doing so for himself.He saw her lift the glass to her lips and waited patiently for her to have the wine. His hands felt clammy as nervous guilt took over him.Belle gulped all of her glass content in one drink. She reached for the bottle to pour herself another glass, she had no trouble finishing the whole bottle alone since she knew it was non-alcoholic; she didn't know he had added something to it."Isn't that too much?" He asked when she filled the glass more than he did the first time, more guilt taking over him."Nah, I actually need this. I didn't know how much I needed it till you suggested it, thank you." She smiled and gulped half of her glass again."Won't you have yours?" She saw that he hadn't drunk any from his glass so she asked.Nathan drank half too from his glass, so she didn't get suspicio
Love 'n' lust Shameless seduction
Ben was just done with an early meeting. He stepped out of the elevator that led to his private suite. Opening the door to his room, he took off his suit jacket and wore it on the arm of the mini sofa present in the room. He was taking off his wristwatch when he saw the shadow of a person behind the light curtains on the large balcony.He walked over there and uncovered the curtains that were used to prevent too much bright light. He saw Alex. She smiled widely when he pulled on the curtains."Ben," she uttered to his annoyance."Who let her in here?" Ben questioned after he had called for Randy and the other heads of security and they stood in a spread-out line."I did," Randy spoke up and got an immediate ‘on whose permission’ look from Ben."She came here with your sister, sir, so I let them both in," Randy explained, hoping he didn't get punished for it."Is Jenna here?" He turned his look to Alex and she nodded slowly."Where is she now? Where did she go?" "She liked this place s
