Kimberly had started this whole conversation as a plan to get him to tell her the plan in details and it wasn't entirely scrapped off but it dawned on her that she really wanted to have this conversation and hear what he had to say to her because it was pretty much obvious by now that whatever it is that they felt for each other was not just fleeting. She wanted to know the man better than she already knew him now and him telling her the plan was just going to have to be an icing on the cake.Jacob was hesitant because he knew once he really opened up then there was no going back. He wanted her but the thing was how bad did he actually want her. Did he want her as bad as risking his job because he knew that although the boss, Ethan, cannot chase him away from the job, there was still no way that he would be comfortable enough to still work for him when he had something going on with his ex wife."Well Kimberly, it's just that...I have a job to do here, and I don't want to compromise
They had both lost track of time but none of them seemed to care at all but Jacob did care. He had never just disappeared from his duty post like that and he was worried that Ethan or one of the other bodyguards would be looking for him. He turned on the bed until he got into a comfortable position that enabled him to look at Kimberly's face as she slept. She was so gorgeous and a force to reckon with sexually, he chuckled at the voice in his head. He had had a swell time making love to her. It had been one for the books.He glanced at the wristwatch that never left his wrist because his work demanded punctuality and he was never one to be caught late for anything at all. It was mid afternoon and he knew that someone must have probably been looking for him and regardless of how much he wanted to stay in bed and cuddle Kimberly till the next day, it was not entirely possible coupled with the fact that this was the house of his boss. It was appalling to say the very least.As he stoo
He entered the room fully, closing the door with his foot and placed the tray on the bedside table before sitting down next to her on the bed."You're welcome," he said, smiling back at her. "I hope you're hungry?""Oh I most definitely am," she said, and his heart leapt at the sight of her smile. She was really a beautiful woman and it was crazy how he had just been admiring her from a distance but now they were sharing a bed together. Not just sharing but even eating together. If that was not the height of intimacy, then he didn't know what else was.She picked up the cover of the plate gingerly to see what was inside, "Pasta!" She exclaimed like a little kid who had just been given some candies. She had actually been thinking of pasta since morning and it was as if he had gone into her mind to know exactly what she wanted."How did you know that I was craving this?" She asked him and he shrugged."I'm a magician. I read minds" he said and she swatted his shoulder playfully."Oh
Kimberly hummed as she went about her morning routine. She was so excited for the day. Reason being that, she finally knew what the plan that he had been begging Ethan to tell her was after all and she could not wait to go find Ethan and brag about it.It had been a dangerous game that she had played last night with Jacob by not waiting till maybe a few hours or even days before she asked him to tell her the plan because in as much as that had been her motive for even making a move at him in the first place, she could not deny that she was actually considering trying out something with him. Problem was that she didn’t know exactly what she wanted with him but he had made it clear last night that he was not in this for games. Hell, the man was even considering quitting his job because he has this moral compass of not dating the woman his boss had been involved with before. Especially something deep like marriage. She really admired that he was being honest with her right from the on
Finding Ethan was not difficult because immediately she walked into the living room, there he was, sitting on the couch, looking through his laptop and sipping on a cup of coffee.‘’Oh hey there Ethan or should I rather call you the secret keeper’’ she said a little too bubbly and Ethan looked up at her at the same time that he was letting out a frustrated sigh."Oh my God! Are you not tired of this already? Let it rest’’ He scolded and she mimicked him in a comical way and Ethan rolled his eyes.‘’I’m really not up for this today Kim. Please’’ he pleaded but Kimberly rolled her eyes at him. She was not about to take his words to mean anything.Ethan was really having fun with keeping the full plan from her because he just loved seeing how desperate she was to get answers to all her questions and he knew her so well. She was not going to stop, until she found her answers but he was also as stubborn as her. But he knew that she was onto something because of the way she was bubbly that
After Ethan left with Jacob and the other bodyguards for their meeting, Kimberly was left alone in the house and she became bored immediately. Now that the issue with the Mafia was solved, she should probably get something tangible to do with her life because she was not going to live under Ethan's roof forever. She didn't have things figured out yet but if she was sure of one thing then it was that she was most definitely going to leave Florida because there was nothing left for her in the town. In as much as it sounded cliche, she genuinely did want to start afresh. Maybe if she was lucky, she could even start it with Jacob beside her but she immediately killed the thought as it entered her head. He loved his job a little too much to abandon it all for her but a girl could still dream right?Her mind drifted off to her son. That was another decision she was sure of. She was going to give him up for adoption. That was the only solution because she had tried so much but she just c
She stretched out her hands and ruffled the little boys hair and he smiled up at her. He was totally gorgeous. Exactly like his father. The resemblance was insane and it made her wonder if that was how their kids would have looked if they had made any because it seemed like his genes were really dominant.Ava turned to her and looked her straight in the eye. "Do you think it's that easy? Do you think that the fact that the man that took my virginity when I was just a kid doesn't matter? The fact that he broke my trust and my heart doesn't matter?" Her tone was almost angry and it startled Kimberly a bit. Ava's eyes were suddenly glossy and she looked like she was close to tears and Kimber should have taken that as her cue to back down but she couldn't because from what she had said, it was obvious that she had the whole story screwed."I'm sorry" was all that Kimberly wanted to say but the other words came tumbling out."He was just a young man too and remember you both were drunk j
Kimberly shifted on the bed so she could get more comfortable as she cuddled with Jacob. They had had an intense make out session in the living room and then they had clumsily found their way to Kimberly's room. Now their sweaty bodies was entangled as they lay on the bed. Her head resting on his chest, she was listening to his heart beat and was enjoying the redeem of it as her mind drifted off to la la land. She needed to tell him about her plans to leave Florida but she didn't know how to break it to him because she didn't know how he was going to take it. What was he going to think about her plan? Would he want to come with her? Or would he stay back because of his job? What if she found a way to convince Ethan to lay him off so that she can steal him away?"What are you thinking about? Hmm?" He asked as he buried his head in her hair and took a deep breath. Her hair always smelled like lavender and he loved it. She smiled as he wrapped his hands around her and pulled her cl
