David was so engrossed with the file when Arabella came in.
“David you should see this”,she said.‘See what?He barked at her.“The news”, she said.He glanced at the television which was on.So what do l have to do with the news he said dismissively,then something caught his eye.“My God!He exclaimed loudly.On the ground with other people was his wife,the news was all about some robbers hijacking the shopping mall close to his company.He stood up apprehensively.“He thought she had gone home”,he thought silently“Damn!He spat out again.How can his wife be in the custody of these hoodlums,he thought she had gone home.“What is she doing there?”He thought to himself,pacing up and down in the office and thinking of what to do.He couldn't believe that his wife who just left here a few minutes ago was now in the custody of hoodlums.He picked up his pWhat happened to her?, the baroness asked, worried as she saw David carrying Celine inside the mansion.“She's fine ,I can assure you of that mother”.David said.“All thanks to God”,the baroness said,making a prayer sign.“I was so worried when the maids told me there was a robbery and she was in the mall”.“I tried calling you but couldn't reach you”.Don't worry mother,I will be fine “,Celine reassured the baroness seeing her worried look.“It's just a little sprain,I will be alright in a few days”.“Very well,the baroness said.it's good that you are safe”.“Thank you mother”, Celine said,as David carried her up the stairs.He put her down gently on the bed.“I will call the doctor to see your sprain”,he said“No need for a doctor,she spat out angrily”,still upset by his behavior.David looked at her,seeing the anger in her eyes.“I am sorry”,he said
"I brought her here”, David said as he came down the stairs.“ She came to see Celine”.“Oh I see”, the baroness said with raised brows.“Then you can join us for dinner Arabella”.“Thank you, ma'am,”, Arabella said, smiling sheepishly. as she went to the dinner table to pull a chair for herself. Not minding that everyone knew she had wanted to stay for dinner.“David come and sit with me”, Arabella said, already helping him to pull a chair close to her.David looked towards Celine but she ignored him, pretending to look elsewhere.He reluctantly accepted Arabella's invitation seeing her smile of triumph, as Celine sat close to his mother.Immediately, Arabella started talking as the food was served.”David, do you remember how we went for a picnic in our third year at college?”She chuckled as David grinned.“Do you remember
Celine watched as David went out, she winced when he banged the door, feeling confused and nervous to see him so angry.“Does that mean he was defending Arabella, because he loves her?” why would just a little argument get him annoyed to that extent?”She stood up from the bed and went to wash her face in the bathroom.Leaving a grudge to the next day can destroy a marriage; she wouldn't want that to happen, would she?She would go after David soon and apologize to him so they could settle their differences.Using a towel to clean her face, she dashed it also with a little powder and went out to look for David,She checked the guest room but couldn't see him, so she went downstairs and looked around for a while.Just when she wanted to give up and go upstairs to sleep, she heard voices in the courtyard.Curious, she went close to the door
Days turned into weeks and she was mostly in the garden or cooking because she loves to do that as it was her passion.She was baking a cake when David came in.“Good morning”, he said from the kitchen doorway.“Good morning”,she answered,her face flushed from opening the oven to check the progress of the cake .“What are you doing?David asked.“I am baking a cake”, Celine answered,”but why are you back so early?”She asked.“I forgot some important files at home,and I needed to bring them along to the office”.he answered,coming closer to where she was standing .He was looking at her strangely and she felt embarrassed.“What is it?”she asked, raising her brows.He didn't talk but moved closer again to wipe the side of her nose with his hands.She just stood there looking at him and he smiled.“You look cute baking in the kitchen with the flo
Celine opened her eyes quickly to the sound of David's voice as she turned.She saw that he had bowed and was stretching his hand towards her.She looked at the baroness who was smiling as she gestured with her eyes for Celine to accept the invitation from her husband.Celine put her hands on David's hands and stood up.David took her to the dance floor amidst the clapping of their guests who were all smiling and cheering them forward.At the dance floor,David put his hands on her waist which made Celine put her hands on his shoulders.He looked at her with a calm expression and pulled her closer.She gasped as her body came in contact with him,he was so close that she could feel every part of his body.“Relax sweetheart”,he whispered huskily.“But how can I,you are holding me so tightly”,she whispered.“You know we have to play the perfect couple”,
Celine was reveling in his kiss, and in the feel of his body against her own.He kissed her over and over again until she was breathless.Pleasure accelerated into her being as he turned her over and laid on top of her,pressing himself against her.As he caressed her neck with his lips,touching the top of his tongue to it to taste her enchanting sweet taste.She reached out and put her fingers in his hair,feeling the thick wavy curls.Seeing her excited and willing,her breathing in pants.He still hesitated,because he knew if they continued this way he would take her.He wanted her to accept him and his caresses willingly,he didn't want her to reject him as she did before,he wanted her to enjoy the passion they have together,but the fear of rejection was pushing him back.Just as he was about to stand up and leave her,Celine was already on fire.She pulled him down to her once a
Entering the office David was smiling,he didn't know why his spirits were lifted today,he answered everyone that greeted him,he even paused to talk to one or two employees and everyone saw his changed mode and were talking about it at the office.But this changed mood didn't go well with one person at the office.“Arabella!”David called,using the office intercom,” come over here with the Canadian project”.“Yes David,” she answered.This was an important project for David and he couldn't afford to miss a project like that.The investors are from Canada and they are willing to pay a huge sum of money for this project,losing it will be a bad business for his company but he was confident that he will get it. This was because his company was the best glass industry in the country. They always had good conduct from clients,so he wasn't scared about that.Although there was a particular thing h
Celine smiled,as she took the roses from him,her face full of brightness and happiness ,she smelled the sweet scent of the roses and put it on the dressing table.“Thank you David,”she said, raising on her toes to kiss him lightly on the lips.She gasped when he held her waist and pressed his body to hers.“That's not enough,” he said roughly,kissing her deeply to demonstrate how it was done.He released her and they both smiled at each other.“How was work today?” she asked, looking at him as he removed his shirt.“Work is fine but I have to prepare for a presentation by tomorrow”.“It is a contract with Canadian investors,so I am hoping to get it because it will be a great achievement in my business,”he said.Celine could not believe David was telling her about his business comfortably,she looked around her thinking she was dreaming,seeing she was not she asked looking happy
"My God!” She exclaimed loudly.“What is the meaning of this?”The sight she saw was making her more furious as her face was boiling with rage.On the bed she saw Arabella wrapped in David's arms and it looked as if David was holding her also as she laid in his arms.Arabella was looking as if she just woke up from a deep sleep and David was still sleeping.Celine went towards the bed angrily and held David's arm,trying to wake him and pull him out of the bed.“David,”she called,patting him on the shoulders,so he could wake up.“Why don't you leave him to sleep," Arabella said,”you can see he is exhausted after our…..“Shut up!” Celine shouted,as she stretched her hand towards Arabella and slapped her hard on the face.The sound of the slap could be heard in the dark hallway.Arabella fell back on the bed not expecting the slap Celine gave her.
David woke up in the middle of the night,he couldn't understand himself.His head was just spinning as if he drank two cartons of alcoholic wine.”’Why am I feeling so hot in my body?”He thought to himself.He stood up and wanted to wake Celine, but when he saw how deep in sleep she was,he left her to sleep and decided to go downstairs to the kitchen to drink water.He gently tiptoed towards the door,so he wouldn't wake her,then he went down the stairs to the kitchen to take some water inside the fridge.He sat for a while on the chair to regain his strength, then, he took the bottle of water back into the fridge and was about to close the fridge door.Suddenly he felt someone was also in the kitchen,he turned back quickly and looked towards the dim light as he didn't want to put on the full light.“Who is it?" he asked.“It's me,” Arabella said, and came towards the center
"I seem to feel a bit dizzy,”David said, but when he looked towards Arabella again the dizziness seemed to disappear.“I think I am fine once more,”he said.He stood up and asked the waiter to break him a bottle of water,and when the water was brought,he drank all the water in the bottle and sat with Arabella for a while to clear his head.“I think I am feeling much better now," he said.The bottle of water has helped him a bit,he thought.“So what were we saying about the job?” David asked.“Just because the company is better than before doesn't mean that you have to resign.”“I know that David,” Arabella said,”but you are not getting the point.”:Staying with you is my pleasure,but I don't want to spoil your relationship with your wife.”“Leave my wife out of it, how are you spoiling the relationship?”:You know I still care about you and I w
David drew Celine closer as he danced with her,he could feel the warmth of her embrace and that made him feel happy and content.It's really a joyful thing when you are in love and have a peaceful marriage.All the excitement and happiness was getting to his head he thought and chuckled.“Why are you laughing?” Celine asked when she heard him chuckling.“It is because I am so happy at my present situation now,I feel like a fulfilled man and this is all thanks to you,”He said,smiling as he looked into her face.“It's not me sweetheart,but God that blessed us with this happiness so your thanks should be to God.”Celine said.He pulled her closer and kissed her on her forehead.***Arabella looking at them from a distance and seeing them curdle was so furious that she purposely dropped her glass filled with drink in annoyance.This made many heads stare at her but Celine a
Lights were everywhere in the house and there was music playing softly.The atmosphere was lively with guests already arriving,chatting and mingling with each other as they came.David was already down welcoming the guests that were arriving.He looked up to see his mother coming down and he went over to escort her downstairs.“Where is your wife? The baroness asked above the music.“I think she will soon be downstairs,”David said.He watched as his mother welcomed a few of her friends and sat with them on their table.David welcomed lots of his employees,it seems the turn up was very high,it was as if the entire employees of the company decided to come to work in his house.He smiled,feeling honoured as most of his friends and employees came to the party.David turned to a tap on his shoulders,and turning back he saw Arabella.”Hello Arabella,”David
Celine was anxious,and was checking the door from where she sat in the living room every minute to see if David was back home.When he finally entered the house,he gave her the flowers he bought for her. They were red and white roses,a combination of colours looking so beautiful together.“Thank you sweetheart,” she said.“You are welcome, my love,”he said.“And where is mother?" he said.“I am coming downstairs,”the baroness said,as she came down the stairs.David went towards her, kissed her on the cheeks and walked with her to the living room.“I am so happy today mother,” he said,grinning from head to toe.“What happened son,did you win the lottery?”“Something even better than that to secure our future mother,I got the investors to invest in my business,so now I can say business is blooming.”“Wow I am happy for you my son,”the baroness sa
David drove into the parking lot of the company,he stopped and gave the key to the security to park the car properly.He went up through the lift to his office and called for Arabella through the intercom.When she came in,he demanded the file he had given her.And Arabella, he said,where are the investors?”“They are in the conference room,”Arabella said.Arabella handed the file to David as he cross checked to see if everything was intact.“Ok we are ready to go,where is the other assistant?” David asked.‘“I told him to be there with the investors and two other top employees,”Arabella said.“That's okay,” David said.”Let us go to the conference room.”“Okay David,” Arabella said and led the way.David entered the conference room and shook hands with the two investors that came.“I am happy you are giving my company a chance,an
Days turned into weeks and after two days, they were to do the children's welcoming party.Celine had made a lot of preparations towards it. She had made purchases of some necessary things.She had gotten two outfits each, for the children,bought a pair of shoes and also an outfit for herself.Her mother-in-law and husband told her they have an outfit to wear for the party ,so she concentrated on the menu and drinks for that day.David wanted the party to be done at the hotel,but Celine insisted the party should be done in their home.Celine was in the garden with her mother in-law and the children, discussing the events of the party when David came in.“Welcome sweetheart,” Celine said as he greeted them.“Are you not supposed to be at work now?”the Baroness said.“Yes,” David said, kissing his mum and Celine on the cheek.“But things have gone ba
David shifted to her so that he was seated close to her,he soundlessly and slowly leaned towards her.In his eyes,she saw her own needs.A reflection of desires,showing that she was ready,which she had ignored all this while since she gave birth.Her eyes were steady in his eyes and her pulses scrambled erratically,this always happens to her when David touched her,it was as if she had just crossed the finish line of a long and vigorous race.David touched her face,and cupped it. He was looking at her at the same time as if he wanted to mold the shape of her face in his mind,to remember her always.Her breath caught,then released,the trembling of passion was all over her.Slowly deliberately,he spread his fingers so that his palm slid over her neck,then her jawline and finally her cheekbones.She couldn't prevent a quick gasp as he put his hands on her hair and pulled her head back gent
