"Of course, there is everything wrong with what you said and if you don't see it then I don't know what to make of you,""What are you getting at Katrina? Mind your language, last I checked I am still the boss,""Did I say otherwise, I am sorry boss, I was on my own when you asked me to come here with you, if you had told me this outing was work-related maybe I won't have said those words and just maybe you won't have thought I am getting favors from you because we are sleeping together,"She replied, she was shouting now and he still couldn't see what he said that was wrong, yes he agreed that he brought them here to celebrate but also they had work to do, the next couple of months will be busy, and that's what he said, so why was she taking it the wrong way."I don't know why you are offended by what I said, but can we just stop this argument? We have a lot to do,""Did I say otherwRelated chapters

"What did you say?"He asked and suddenly she couldn't keep it in anymore, she wanted more and deserved more, she couldn't keep this up if there was going to be nothing for her."I said I want more, I deserve more, I can't settle for crumbs anymore, I can't be your fuck buddy anymore,"She yelled, he walked past her and locked his office door before coming back to her."Fuck buddy?""That's what we are, isn't it? Or what are we?""Katrina,""I want more okay?"She let out raising her hands up."Kat, we talked about this, why are you doing this right now? And at the office at that,""Why? But we have slept together here a whole lot of times, so why is it a problem if I want this to end here too? And yes we did talk a lot it and you agreed to let me go if ever I wanted more so here is me saying I want out, I can't do this anymore,"She let out, willing herself not to cry, she has prepared herself for this moment right from their f

He should have known this was going to happen, he thought, as he sat on the plane going home to Arizona a week after his fight with Katrina, he still couldn't get her words out of his head, she has been in love with him for a long time? Was that why she agreed to their affair? Did she think she could make him marry her? Was that her goal from the beginning? He just couldn't get his head around Katrina coming up with such ideas, she messed up by catching feelings and she was gonna deal with the consequences, the only reason he was still thinking about her was because he hadn't been ready to end what they had, that's the only reason, nothing more, once he gets back to New York he was going to put her at arm's length, thank God he already decided to get two more assistants and so far they are both doing well, yes they were both lacking and he had to remind them a hell lot of things but still, it gives Katrina her own time since she doesn't have to come in for work all the time, but her

"Jordan, I think I am going to lose my mind, I can't take this anymore, I should have kept how I felt to myself, and just taken what he offered and we would have still been okay, I messed up,"Katrina voiced as she sat heavily on the couch in Jordan's living room, she just got back from the office and the energy between her and Lucas was really hard, she shouldn't have said anything, she should have kept how she felt to herself like she has been doing, but keeping her feelings in have become so hard, she wanted more, all he had to say was he was going to try and make them work, now he doesn't even talk to her much and he was giving her a chance to come in for work only four times a week, she hadn't done much at work today and he talk with and went on meeting with the newly employed assistants, there were two of them, he made a clear statement that he didn't want her close, which hurt, each time the office line rings and he ask for the others instead of her, she felt her heartbr

She walked into the office the next morning with her resignation letter in her bag, this was going to be her last day here, there was no need for her to come back, her replacement were already working here, she felt bad for not keeping her promise but he didn't need her around anyway, and her leaving will do him good too, looking around the place that has been her everyday life for seven years she felt sad letting it go, but she needed a clean start, she plans on taking a long vacation till the end of the year before she goes back to work, this time she was going to do her own thing not work under anybody, she plans on opening her own clothing line, she has always loved fashion and had enough money saved to help her open one, if they are not enough she is gonna get help from her parents, but she knew what she had would go a long way, now she felt a little form of pride knowing she had enough saved."Hi Betty, Toni,"She greeted the two new secretaries that she has been wor

Katrina held on to the bat, holding her breath as the front door opened, her hands were shaking and she felt cold to her toes, she closed her eyes hoping that whoever was coming would be Lucas."Kat?"She heard her name and let out a heavy sigh of relief, it was Lucas after all, she dropped the bat and stood there, he walked in looking at her."Kat? Are you okay? What happened?"He asked walking close to her, her legs couldn't carry her anymore so she just sat down on the floor there, he rushed to her side, and held her, she didn't have the strength to remove his hands from her, her fear had drained all her energy."Hey, are you alright?"He asked examining her, she took a deep breath to gather strength."I am okay, I was just scared someone might have broken in, don't worry I am fine now,"She said removing his hands from her body."You don't look fine, your hands are shaking, what happened? Why would you think someone broke in?"He

"What's the meaning of this Katrina? Why are you doing this? Is this how far you will go to get what you want?"He asked picking up the letter she dropped on the table and placing it back in her hands."Lucas,""I am not going to take that from you, we had an agreement,""Lucas, come on,"He stared at her wordlessly, her outstretched hands bore the letter that would end their relationship for good, he didn't want this, didn't want her to quit on him, he still needed her around, yes his other assistants were doing a good job but Katrina was his best."I thought you promised that you won't quit on me? Can't you at least keep that promise? Why do I have to suffer because of your choices? Or did you forget you made a promise?""Yeah I did, I remember, but I don't think I am needed here anymore, and what more I need to start thinking of myself first, this place is no longer healthy for me, and I want a clean start,""I am not taking that from you,

"Are you going to keep this up? Should I go get Lucas or are you going to move on? Because this is getting really serious, it's been three weeks and you are still like this,"Jordan said in a rather harsh tone, Katrina couldn't blame him for getting tired of her, she was tired of herself too, three weeks has passed since she quit her job and told Lucas she was moving on but so far she hasn't done any of that, the only thing she has done these past two weeks was cry and eat which made her gain weight, she hasn't even been out of the house for three weeks now, she looked pitiful, when she had left Lucas at the apartment, she had driven to Starbucks and ordered enough junk and had driven home and stuffed herself with it, watched TV, the first day had been great, she didn't even cry but then reality dawn on her two days later and since then she has been in absolute pain and hurt."I am sorry Jord, I just can't help it okay, I wanna stop but I can't, it as if I can't control my

When she opened her eyes again she was in an unfamiliar room, she looked around and noticed she was in a hospital bed, she tried to get up but she was too dizzy to, she wondered what happened and how long she has been passed out, she closed her eyes and tried to remember what happened and all she could come up with was her talking to Jordan when she found out she was pregnant, her eyes opened in bewilderment when she recurs that she was indeed pregnant, she thought it was just a dream, she gradually opened her eyes again just as Jordan walked in."Hi baby girl, you are finally awake,"He said sitting on the chair close to her bed."Yes, but my head hurts so bad, what happened?""Your body was too stressed, according to the doctor which is what lead to you collapsing,""How long have I been out Jordan?""Hmm, about two days,""What? That's a lie right?""No, it's not, your body was so stressed that you have slept for almost forty-eight hours, w

"Your wife is on her way to the chapel son,"Lucas heard his mom say and his heart skipped a beat, this was really happening, he was getting married today to the love of his life, it still felt surreal even though it was happening, during the preparations for the big day, each morning he wakes up and doubts for a moment if it was really happening and she reminds him each time that it was, he still didn't know if he deserves all the love and attention she gives him, if it was okay for him to feel this much happiness and love, a little over a ten months, ago, he had thought himself incapable of love and being loved but now, getting ready for his big day, the day he thought he was never going to witness, was like a dream, a dream he didn't want to ever wake up from."Mom, this is really happening? I am getting married? Kat really loves me?""Of course son, all are happening and Katrina loves you, you deserve to be loved my dear and you got the best, I just know your life

"Are you ever going to give me an answer?"Lucas asked as they sat together in Lucas's room in Arizona, it's been a month since the incident with Nas and a lot of things have happened since that time, first, she had to spend the whole of her first week back at the hospital, her family pestering her with their love and attention, then Lucas's mom made it clear she wanted them back home in Arizona for the time being, Nas was arrested at first but then his medical records proved that he is infact not mentally okay, he was sent to the mental health care center, of course, he didn't want that but that's what the Court ruled, Katrina didn't want to be roped into many legal dealings as she didn't want to keep having to recount every of her experience so she had told Lucas that she didn't want to be a part of whatever legal actions that were going to be taken against him, so far all she knew was that he was sent to the mental health care center, she didn't know the rest of it even thou

She ran as much as her big tummy could let her, he was chasing her and threatening to shoot, she was betting on the fact that he couldn't kill her and hoped he won't, she passed the house, running towards the palm groves, hoping to get a good hiding spot, she looked back, he was coming, she dashed into the palm groves and hid, hoping and praying that he won't find her, she wasn't sure anymore if she had heard correctly or if she has imagined the sound of the plane earlier, it was already dark, so she hopped the night could serve as hiding for her, she didn't mind swimming out of here but there was no way she was going with Nas."Come out, come out, where ever you are,"Nas voiced, he was close, she heard her breath praying for him not to find her."Please,"She pleaded silently. "Found you,"He said with an evil laugh that brought tears to her eyes, he pulled her out of her hiding place and slapped her hard, not just once but twice, she had bad luck wh

Katrina got off the bed and looked through the window, she could only see water, in her prison-like room, she has been able to convince Nas that the seal on the window doesn't need to be there since she can't leave through there and he had finally removed it, it's been almost a week since she got here, precisely six days, by this night it would be seven days and still no hope of her getting rescued, she had tried to find a way, trying to run away every day but as the days came and went, she saw how hopeless her case was, she didn't know where she never knew a place like this existed in New York, so she decided to give up on trying to escape and plan another way of getting out of here which was to makeNas think she was finally coming back to her senses and falling in love with him, she didn't know how long it will take to build that trust, maybe weeks or months? Would she give birth to her baby here without any help? But so far, he has given her some breathing space, not

Lucas got to Katrina's house as fast as he could after Jordan called him but it had taken longer than he had wanted because he had been in Florida when Jordan had called, he had been trying to reach Katrina since he woke up but she wasn't taking her calls so he had called Jordan to go check on her but then Jordan had called sounding worried, he found Katrina's door open but she wasn't there."Jordan, hey, any news?"He asked as he got in, Jordan was talking on the phone."Welcome Lucas, nothing yet, I just spoke with the estate security,"He replied, which made Lucas even more scared, what could have happened and why did she leave her door open? It's being over eight hours and she wasn't back yet, he went into her bedroom and found her phone there,""Oh God,"He voiced as he came back to the living room."I found her phone, where could she have gone to without a car or her phone?""I have a bad feeling about this Lucas, Katrina is not the type

Katrina was woken up by the sound of someone banging on her door, she wondered why whoever was there was banging so hard on her door when the person can just ring the doorbell, she sluggishly got up from her bed, being five months pregnant made her extra tired all the time, if only Lucas was here but he had to travel for a business trip which is why she was alone, Jordan already left for work, he had passed the night at her place but left early for work, Lucas had wanted her to go to his house while he was away but she had insisted on staying here because his house was too big for her to be alone, he had reluctantly agreed.Over the last two months they have gotten even closer and everyday Katrina fell more in love with him, he was everything, he was kind and considerate and didn't rush her when she had told him she didn't want to be married yet, he had understood and told her he will wait till she was ready.She went to her door wondering who it was, she wasn't expecting

The next couple of days and week was pretty much amusing for Katrina, and it was all because of Lucas, the dude turned to someone she has never seen before, he practically lived with her now as he was there every morning afternoon, and evening, he only leaves to sleep and before she wakes up he is at her house again, right now he was here and chatting with Jordan who took a sick leave to tend to his after surgery, it wasn't really much of surgery though, he had his wisdom tooth pulled out, he can talk fine now but he took two weeks off and the fact that the owner of the company is here and not saying anything."Are you both not going home? When did you two become besties and why do you choose to meet at my house?"Katrina asked standing with her hands on her waist, her baby bump which has become more obvious as the days passes shut up."You should be happy we are here to keep you company,"Jordan said"I don't need company, Lucas? Don't you have a company to

Katrina waited for his words, would he blame her and rebuke her for not telling him earlier? She hadn't meant to just blurt it out but it came out, and she couldn't take it back now, he didn't react the way she expected, she looked at him and he wasn't even shocked, he was smiling, he knew, since when did he know?"You are not shocked? You are not angry?""No, I already figured it out, I mean we slept on the same bed it would be hard not to notice."He replied smiling, this wasn't the reaction she had been expecting."When did you figure it out?""Last night, I was watching you sleep and we'll I noticed a lot of change, then you turned and it all made sense, I did place my hand on it to be sure and that moment finding out that you are carrying my baby was the best moment of my life, it feels good to finally have confirmation,""How are you so sure that the baby is yours? I mean we broke up three months ago, it could belong to someone else,""I am s

Lucas stayed out until the last rounds of guests that were going back to their respective homes left, the ones that were spending the night at the hotel were still around and some were already in their rooms, the whole event had been smooth and it ended about an hour ago, Lucas turned to the staff nearest to him and gave him instructions before heading towards the room he had chosen for him and Katrina, he saw her going that way earlier and it had made him glad, at least she still wanted them to talk, she hadn't believed his declaration of love which had hurt but he couldn't blame her, he did worst to her, he just hoped she would forgive him and give him another chance.His parents and siblings already turned in for the night, they hadn't asked him any questions, but he knew they were curious, he hoped he will have good news to share with them by morning.When he entered the room, he found her sleeping, she still had her clothes and makeup on so he assumed she fell asleep
