Searching through her clothes, she couldn't find anything she could call nice, at least not as nice as the one she wore the first time she met Ben.

She began to consider asking Brie as she didn't seem to have a choice. Turning around and about to head to the living room, she got startled when she met Brie standing at the room door.

"Brie...." She started,"I need help."

"Okayyyy?"

"I need one of your dresses......"

"O..my... god." Brie said in what didn't sound like an exclamation

"What?"

"Are you going out with him?"

"Who?" Belle asked even though it seemed to her that her friend already knew about Ben.

"The guy at the door who just came looking for you." Belle smiled when she said that because now she knew that Brie actually didn't know and just thought she was going out with Ben's driver who was at the door to pick her.

‘He's at the door already!’Belle said to herself.

"No, I'm not going on a date with him. Please Brie help me with a dress, please.

    He pulled out a chair from the table they had both walked to, she smiled as she sat but he didn't smile back, it made her a little nervous. Taking his own seat, a waitress came forward with a pen and a writing pad. "Good day sir, ma'am, I'll be the serving you both tonight, may I know what you would like the chef to make?" The lady was keeping her best smile, she couldn't afford to make a mistake while serving Mr Larkson. Ben looked at Belle to make an order but Belle wasn't even sure she had had any of the dishes on the menu and besides she wasn't hungry, she already had dinner. "You are not hungry?" He said his first words to her since the evening. She shook her head, glad that he had asked that. "Get us wine then." He told the waitress who nodded before leaving. Belle saw the waitress go through a door and she also noticed that the men in suit who were there initially when they sat were gone, now it was just she and Ben. When she turned to him, she saw that his lips were curve

  • Love 'n' lust    A familiar night in a different hotel

    When Belle walked into the room, she began to wonder why it should be called a room because it wasn't if you asked her. It was spacious, more than spacious, she thought it was as big as the apartment she shared with Brie and Cherry.A king-size bed took the center of the room, she was sure she wouldn't have Brie's leg over her or when she woke up, if they shared the bed in this room back at their apartment.The room's general colour was bright, thanks to the gold designed walls and the other interior designs which were also gold or white.Ben stood at the door after he had closed it, with his hands in his pocket, he admired her as she looked around amazed. He walked up to where she stood but she didn't hear him; he usually didn't make much noise when he walked.Circling his arms around her waist from behind, he heard her when she let out an almost quiet gasp. He smelt her hair slowly going from her neck to her right shoulder. She liked what he was doing."Belle." He called her in tha

    She sighed after he didn't show up as quick as she expected, she went over to the bed and sat still waiting and after another minute she decided to climb on the bed; lying down still naked.Immediately she lay down, Ben came back with just a towel on. He saw her on the bed rather than where he asked her to wait but he didn't mind because he thought she looked sexier than ever with the way she laid."I asked you to wait for me." He said climbing on top of her to stop her from sitting up like she wanted to."I....""Shhhh." He massaged her lips with his right thumb."You did something different from what you were told to do and now I'm going to have to punish you." He added in his still hoarse voice."Huh?" She panicked a little but he didn't look like he was about to hurt her."I'm going to eat you now and you are not permitted to make a noise. If you do then I

    He stepped out of the elevator to the room, he was going back to her after leaving her, he couldn't help it.When he walked in, he didn't see her asleep like he expected, he didn't even see her in the room."Belle?" He called but didn't get a response. He went to the bathroom, maybe she was there.He looked around when he got to the bathroom, he didn't see her at first after looking around but he decided to walk in further and there she was, in the bathtub, asleep. He quickly bent and checked her pulse with fear and when he could feel her pulse, he sighed with relief, wondering what she was doing sleeping in the bathtub.Her whole body was immersed in the foamy water except for her head and some of her neck. Gently caressing her face, he smiled, she was beautiful, so beautiful to have him change his mind the way he was doing.........Morning.Belle turned in the bed as she hugged a pillow tighter. She opened her eyes slowly after it just occurred to her that she was in bed. For all

    He knew how much she wanted to introduce him to her fiance. He didn't even know how to say no to her again after not been able to go to many of the things she had planned in the past just so he(Ben) could meet the man she wanted to marry.Jenna was the only close person he had in Larkson family. Growing up, she was his best friend, she still was but they just weren't as close as they used to be when they were younger. This was mainly due to how busy he had become after taking over the family business from his father but he still loved her.She was older but he still felt the need to protect her, not just physically but emotionally and he had done that so well over the years that she wanted him to meet her boyfriend turned fiance who recently proposed to her. Ben has never met him but he knew that his cousin sister's fiance was the son of one of the wealthy families in city S. Jenna wanted her cousin brother to meet her man and talk to him, she wanted to know what Ben thought of the m

    He came up to her and put his hands on her shoulder and her breathing got heavier in expectation of whatever he wanted to do. She didn't know what was on his mind holding her like that but she knew that this man made her nipples crinkle as they got harder just by the sound of his voice.He turned her around to face the mirror and once again, she was looking at her reflection but this time with him standing behind her. He came closer to her, his arms around her waist from behind, he spoke with his lips directly next to her left ear."You, you are a beautiful woman Belle." He told her something he was sure she knew and watched as a smile crept up her lips.Slowly, he went on to caress her open shoulder with the tip of his pointed nose, making her heart beat faster and her breathing heavier than it already was. He was inhaling her fragrance, he loved how she smelt. His arms got tighter the more he inhaled her perfume, he wanted no distance between them, there was an unusual sense of comf

    "Is it always like this for you?" She asked, her voice more audible now than initially."Do you always have to evade the press like this?""Sometimes." He answered her question just before his phone began to ring in his hands, it was Jenna. He picked it up and put it to his ear."Are you really going to come?" Jenna's voice cane through and he thought she sounded worried."I will.""Really?" She sounded like she already concluded he wouldn't be able to come."I will, Jenna.""When? When will that be? I can't have my friends waiting, it's almost one o'clock, it's not even gonna be brunch anymore by then." She complained."Don't have them wait for me, you should start the party, I will join it when I get there.""Are you at the office?""No.""Thank goodness, now I know you will really come. Once you are at the office, you usually don't want to be disturbed." She said making him chuckle."I will be there in thirty minutes time or less, okay?" "Okay." Jenna said before hanging up.Ben tu

    "Please, the party's over here." Jenna said and started towards where she just pointed and Ben followed with Belle by his side."O my god, it's Ben Larkson!" One of the ladies there informed her friends the moment Ben walked towards where the little crowd were. He didn't mixed with everyone, he stayed at a safe distance with Belle because although many of the guests present were elites, they were some who were willing to overstep their boundary when it came to him(Ben)."She really did convince him to come like she said she would." Another person said as they all looked on, some with drinks in their hands."Who's that with him?" Whispered questions started to arise among the little crowd."Yeah, there's a lady with him.""I'm sure it's just a model he hired for today.""No, I don't think so, I've not seen or heard of her before.""She might be an upcoming model, look at her skin, she has to be a model to have such clear skin.""And she's with Ben Larkson.""I know right, lucky her.""

    "Are you okay?" Jenna asked her when she noticed she was acting somewhat different."Yeah, it's just..." Belle stopped and sighed. "Can I tell you something?""Yes girl, I'm all ears.""Well, you see..." Belle sighed once more after sitting next to her on the sofa in the living room."I thought and thought but couldn't get Ben a good gift. He got me those cars outside and all I could get him was tickets to go see a movie with me. I realized that I couldn't even go out to see a movie with him because he's him, you know. I feel bad but I'm trying not to because he was so excited gifting me the cars.""You got him tickets?" Jenna laughed after listening to her say all she had."Yeah?""Three of his houses in city S have private cinemas in them." Jenna couldn't stop laughing."Awwww, that makes me feel worse." Belle almost sobbed."I'm sorry. It's just funny but don't stress about it. I used to feel that way years back but then I realized he really didn't care what it was I bought, he only

    Back in city S.Belle woke up and didn't see Ben by her side so she got out of bed and went to the bathroom to check for him but when she didn't see him, she decided to just do her morning routine of brushing her teeth and cleansing her face.After that, she decided to go to the balcony to check if he was there because lately, he was there using his laptop whenever she woke up late.She got there and didn't see him but she saw something surprising. There were seven cars parked downstairs. She turned around to go look for him but saw him just there, he had been behind her while she counted the cars."Good morning, my queen," he told her with a smile."Good morning," she held his face and kissed his right cheek."And happy birthday," she got on her tippy toes and hugged him and felt his arms go round her waist."You're finally awake, I've been waiting and my excitement almost died while waiting." He laughed after the hug."The cars?" She didn't know how to react though he was laughing."T

    Larkson mansion.I"Aww, she has such a pretty face." Mrs Larkson said after some silent minutes of admiration.Belle looked up from her dish and smiled at the woman sitting opposite to her on the dining table. Things were great since she came by unlike all she assumed. Mrs Larkson didn't ask the many questions she assumed she had to prepare for so things were alright till she said:"My grandchildren will be so cute, I can already imagine." Belle almost choked on what she was about to swallow when Mrs Larkson blurted that out.Ben stood and filled a glass of water, rubbing Belle's back slowly while bending to speak to her as she had her head down."Water?" He proposed and she took the glass from him and took a big sip. While Belle was drinking water, Ben took the chance to give his mother a questioning look about what she just said.Belle returned the glass to him and he kept it on the table and sat back down. Mrs Larkson didn't say anything else; she didn't mean to make Belle uncomfor

    Morning, the next day."Did you think about it?" Ben leaned against the wall with both his hands in the trouser pockets as he watched Belle arrange her hair."Think about what," she dropped her hairbrush and turned to him."Please tell me you gave a thought to what I told you last night.""Be direct, we talked about quite a lot yesterday," she started to put lipstick on her lips while facing the mirror again."..." Ben scratched the back of his neck and bit his lips because he knew that she remembered what he was talking about."Alright, I'm ready." She stood up from the chair in front of the mirror."Will you drop me off at my sister's or will someone else take me?" She asked, walking past him after picking her purse and hoping he followed like she wanted but he didn't. Ben pulled her back by her waist and he did it so easily, it made her wonder if to do a weight gain diet so he couldn't do that anymore."Please?"

    "Hey man, come take a look." Belle watched as one of the men assigned to be with her called to the other after collecting her ring from her ring finger."Is it original diamond?" The man who was called asked."What do you think? Of course, it is, can't you see?" The first man held it up to the light."She's wearing a ring that's probably worth an amount I've never touched in my entire life.""Are we going to sell it?" The second man asked."We? Did you just say we? I'm the one who noticed it on her finger first...""Guys," someone came in while panting loudly."Yeah?" "I was upstairs..." The man stopped to pant for some seconds."I was upstairs, and I saw these vehicles...""Is the boss back?" The first man asked, putting the ring in his jacket pocket."I don't think so, he usually comes alone. When I said that I saw cars, I meant that there were at least seven of them.""Seven?" The second man asked."Yeah," the informant nodded."I would be far off if I had started to run when I saw th

    Richard was now being tied up in her living room while she watched alongside Ben. She was excited at first, that Ben came to her rescue then realized sooner that he came solely for Richard."What did he do?" She asked Ben but didn't get a reply. "Search for it," she heard him order instead. The men started up her stairs."Search for what?" She asked again but got no reply. She saw Ben go over to one of the sofas opposite to where Richard was tied up to take a seat. She saw a look on Ben's face that she saw the day he came by and injected her with an overdose of the drug that landed her at the hospital. It was a masked look because he seemed calm but she knew he was angry and unhappy at the same time.When she got a chance, she moved to where Richard was and decided to ask him what she asked Ben earlier, hoping for a response."What did you do, Richie?" She asked and got a glare from him that made her move back."Where is she?" Richard's eyes turned from Alex to Ben when he heard the q

    Alex was starting to get scared of Richard's presence when they heard her doorbell ring downstairs."Are you expecting someone?" He asked her."N...yes!" She lied and left him for downstairs before he could hold her back. Happily opening the door to at least be free from him, she saw Randy."Ma'am, I was sent by Mr Larkson..." Randy saw that she was in a towel and looked away immediately."Randy, thank goodness it's you." She pushed him outside and followed, closing the door behind her."Ma'am I...""Shhhh. I need you to help me okay? There's someone in there whom I am currently not very comfortable with," she started and when she saw that he was listening, she continued."I want you to act like we planned to leave together and that you came to pick me up. Can you?""I was actually sent by Mr Larkson to...""Aren't you listening to me?!" She whispered shakily."I need your help, someone broke into my house.""I'm not the police, ma'am."

    11:49 pm Cherry returned from the restroom and saw Brie seated on the bed, not sleeping. She lay on her side of the bed and pulled the blanket over herself to go back to sleep but couldn't, not when Brie was awake."You are overthinking shit again, aren't you?" She sat and joined Brie."I just have a bad feeling. It's been two days since Belle went to that wedding, I find it weird that she hasn't called or come over to tell us about what happened that day. You know how excited she gets, she should have come by to see us, you know.""Urggh, Brie, really? Is that why you are not sleeping?""Is it not a good enough reason?""No, it isn't. Get some sleep, Belle is FINE. She's probably cuddling in bed with him right now and you're here, worrying your ass over nothing.""I'll call her tomorrow morning, please remind me?""Yeah, sure. Can we return to sleeping now?""Okay." Brie rested her head on the pillows."Oh wow, that was actually easier than usual, you agree to go back to sleep. Good

    Weeks later.Late night.Alex's heels made some noise as she walked into the quiet house. It woke Richard up; he had been sitting and waiting for her till he fell asleep."You're finally back, I've been waiting for you. Why didn't you pick up your calls? The least you could have done is answer the goddamn call and let me know if you're busy, you fucking left me worried.""You didn't see my text?" Alex raised a brow."I didn't.""Well, I sent you a text to let you know that I would be visiting Doctor Dan to fix an appointment for my abortion.""What? I thought we talked about that, we're keeping the baby, aren't we?""I changed my mind," she shrugged."You changed your mind? Seriously? Tell me you're joking, Alex.""Do you see me laughing right now? Look, Richie, I'll be honest with you. I went out with my friends after seeing the doctor and I'm as hell as I speak so please let me just go have a good shower so I can get some sleep."
