Love 'n' lust Monday morning
"Belle!" Brie rushed out holding up a phone. "Belle!" Belle turned when she repeatedly heard her name been called. It was Brie calling so she stood waiting for her to cross the road and come to her, wondering why she was calling. "You forgot your phone." Brie finally got to her panting. "Oh my goodness, thanks." Belle said taking it and putting it in her purse. She was in a hell of a hurry when she left their apartment, she was almost late for her first day as an intern at the Crisp-tv media house, her email had been replied and she was informed last night that she had to begin work this morning. "Oh, no thanks, you owe me one, I'm not taking a thanks. I fucking rushed through those flights of stairs and crossed over here, not for a 'thanks' so you owe me one." Brie said finally catching her breath back. "Are you serious?" Belle asked giggling. "Don't mind me, I just wanted to be sure I could reach you to know how you would be doing today at work." Brie said laughing. "My bus.
Love 'n' lust Meeting Ben Larkson
"How would you like to interview Mr Larkson." This question made Belle's eyes widen in surprise. "Me?" "Yes, you." "You would actually trust me to do that? I just started today." "I can't really send anyone else, Mr Larkson is actually a very scary person to deal with, I mean that's what people say, that's why I wanted to do an interview with him to know if it's true but now I can't go and you seem quite fascinated to meet him, so yes, I have no other choice than to trust you right now." "You don't even know my name." Belle laughed feeling comfortable enough to say what she just said. "You are... Vera?" Laura said looking at the names of new interns on her monitor. "No." Belle giggled. "Claire?" "No." Belle shook her head. "Then you have to be Belle because that's the last female name I can see here." "Yes ma'am, I'm Belle, Belle Miller." "Okay Belle, get ready for your interview, you leave in the next thirty minutes." "Okay ma'am." "Laura, call me Laura." "Okay Laura."

"Mrs Johnson couldn't be here, she asked me to do the interview in her place." Ben felt her warm hands touch his when she shook him. So, she wasn't Mrs Johnson, he had been overthinking everything just now. He looked at her face while shaking her hands, an unnoticeable smile of relief escaping. Belle smiled back nervously still, keeping her files on one of the chairs opposite to his desk. She didn't notice Ben curving his lips. He thought she still looked beautiful with her hair poured down. "Please sit." He ushered taking his own seat, his eyes never leaving her face the whole time. She swallowed before seating on one of the two chairs opposite to him. She took out one of the papers containing Mrs Johnson's questions for the interview and took out her pen. She was trying to control her breathing before doing any questioning. She had hoped not to ever see this man in front of her but here she was about interview him. Who knew he was such an important person, she had slept with the
Love 'n' lust I'll call you
"You have become so rich and successful at a young age, for a business man, would you give that to luck or hard work?" She asked."Hard work. I worked hard to get to where I am today." He said with his voice full of confidence. "A lot of people work hard, everyday they try their very best but still they don't always get the reward for their hard work you know." She told him."Is that supposed to be one of the questions?""Uhm no, sorry I deviated." She shook her head."Don't apologize, thinking about it now, you are right, not many people are rewarded for their hard work, I guess luck did play a role, maybe I'm lucky enough to get the deserving reward for my hard work." He smiled."You were adopted into a wealthy family, that luck begins there, don't you think?" Her confidence was growing, she felt progressive."Believe me, it is harder having to get what you want as an adopted child to a wealthy family. You sometimes have to prove that you can be more than just that adopted child."
Love 'n' lust Waiting for his call
The next day had come and Belle went to work, this time making sure herself, that she had her phone with her. She didn't want to miss Ben's call for any reason, so she also charged her phone to a hundred percent.As usual, she ran errands for Laura Johnson but was still grateful because it wasn't as hectic as working under those junior editors.Once, Belle sat In her corner of her boss' office staring at her phone which Mrs Johnson found weird but didn't say a word, she was probably watching a video on silent, she thought.Time passed and it was six in the evening. Again like yesterday, it was time to leave the office and return home to her cousin and her roommate. He still hadn't called. Belle wasn't happy about that, she was hoping he would call her while she was at the office; at least Mrs Johnson would permit a phone call. She didn't want him to call when she was home with Brie and Cherry, then she would have to fill them in about everything and she wasn't really looking forward t
Love 'n' lust Stupid love
11:49 a.m, late Saturday morning and both Brie and Cherry were still sleeping like logs of woods. Belle was the one to drag them home early this morning. She was frankly still surprised at herself, how she got them home.They had gotten dead drunk at the club through last night and this morning but luckily Belle was not drunk like them. She sat alone in front of the kitchen counter sipping some hot tea, her phone on the table. She wanted to search about Ben Larkson."Ben Larkson." She searched and the many results immediately popped up. "Current CEO of the Larks group of companies. Adopted only child to late Benard Larkson and Roselle Larkson." The information on the first icon she had clicked on was brief. She tapped on the second icon expecting a broader information."Find out about multi Billionaire, Ben Larkson and don't forget to tell us your thoughts on the comment below.....Mr Ben Larkson named after his late father is the only son to Mr and Mrs Larkson. Born on October 30t
Love 'n' lust The date 1
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."But you're going with him? Where
Love 'n' lust The date 2
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

"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
Love 'n' lust His birthday
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?" Be didn't let her go after bringing her back to himself. His arms around

"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
Love 'n' lust You came back
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." Randy remained polite though he didn't believe what

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
Love 'n' lust Boom!
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." She started to walk towards the stairs."You can't mak
