Ezra held Giselle close to his chest the whole ride back. The brunette didn’t complain. She quietly stayed in his embrace, enjoying the warm feeling his damp body was giving off.At first she tried to oppose to her body enjoying his embrace, but as she laid her head on Ezra chest and listened to the light rhythm of his heart, she completely melted into his hold.The journey back was shorter but by the time they arrived, Giselle had dozed of in Ezra’s arm.Stepping out, Ezra gently picked her up in bridal style and went into the mansion. He climbed up the stairs and stopped in between the rooms, slightly hesitating, he pushed open the door to his room and stepped in.Giselle stirred a little bit as he placed her in a siting position, putting one hand behind her neck to support her body, while the other one undid the zipper of her dress.He carefully slipped it of, placing her body back on the bed as she mumbled incoherent words. Getting her into a new set of cloths wasn’t as hard as hi
‘Two weeks my ass.’ Giselle thought as she ignored Eva, who was currently stepping into the elevator.The blonde reached out and pressed their floor.“Aren’t you happy to see me back?” Eva sneered as she glared.Giselle ignored her and tapped her feet, waiting for the elevator to arrive on their floor.Eva clicked her tongue and shook her head. “After breaking my nose and getting me suspended, the least you can say is hello, when you see me.”‘You deserved all those.’ Giselle roamed her eyes around the elevator as she thought.“I heard you’ve been acting all high and mighty as of late. Congratulations on being a bitch.”“Don’t you ever shut up?” Giselle finally breaks and sends a cold glared at Eva, the latter squeeze her eyes and steps forward.Just when she was about to say something, the elevator dinged open and Giselle walked out without a second look at Eva.‘Saved by the bell.’Giselle didn’t give a shit about what Eva wanted to say and walked to her workspace. The atmosphere se
Around lunch break, Giselle brought Evelyn to one of her Favorite restaurants. Euphoric Gardens.It was a common restaurant for the residents that lived around that part of town.Just like the name; Euphoric Gardens had a relaxing smell and atmosphere to it.Evelyn admired the place in awe, taking in its quiet yet beautiful surroundings.“Beautiful, isn’t it?” Giselle said as she lead Evelyn to the last seat in the furthest corner of the restaurant.Evelyn nodded her head in response. “It’s beautiful. How’d you find it?”“I was hungry and stumbled across it. A friend and I had gone adventuring into the unknown.” Giselle explained.Evelyn couldn’t help and sniffle a laugh, which made Giselle smile.“Let’s order.” Giselle passed the extra menu towards Evelyn and peeled hers open, dragging her finger through the list of foods.“It’s your treat, right?” Evelyn briefly glanced up from the menu as she asked.Giselle chuckled. “Yes, it is.”The noirette couldn’t be more happier and picked he
“What is it?” Giselle inquired.“Simple.” Evelyn raised her index finger. “Promise to eat lunch with me. Here.”“Is… is that all?” Giselle asked, bewildered.“Yes. Were you expecting some ridiculous demand?”“I uh, I just expected… nothing, forget it. And uhm, sure? I’ll eat with you at lunch. Here.”Evelyn’s eyes lit up as she pushed her food out of the way and grabbed Giselle’s hand. The brunette’s eyes widened in surprise.“What… what are you doing.”“I have a feeling that we’re going to get along well.” She genuinely smiled and Giselle felt the warmth in Evelyn’s eyes spread into her body through their connected hands.Nodding her head, Giselle answered with a soft smile of her own. “Yeah, I hope so.”***************Evelyn and Giselle stepped off the cab, in front of the company’s building. They had made it back from their lunch break with time to spare.Evelyn looked up at the building and sighed, already feeling the weight of work hanging on her shoulder.Giselle paid the cab a
“Daddy has to go now, Grendel, Jason.” Ezra cooed to the children in front of him. He had squatted down to their heights and was softly stroking their head.The two kids didn’t look too happy at the news of their ‘father’ leaving.“Don’t go, Daddy Ezra. Mummy Giselle please let him stay.” Jason begged.Giselle looked at the kids, almost lost in their beautiful eyes.“I’m sorry, Jason. But we have to leave. I’d really love to stay with you guys. You lot are wonderful children, anybody would be happier being around you.”The children’s faces lighted up at Giselle comment, it was like a total three-sixty to their begging a few seconds ago.“Promise you’ll come back?” Grendel pulled out her little finger and Giselle locked hers around, smiling gently at the child’s behavior.“Promise.”After saying their final goodbyes, Ezra and Giselle hopped into the car, Giselle in the driver’s seat and Ezra in the passenger.“How cute are they?” Giselle mused as she navigated her way out of the orphan
Giselle laid in bed, staring at her floral night light. A small grin plastered itself on her lips as she reminisced on the evening’s event.The playback left her rolling from side to side with a bubbly feeling in her stomach.Nowadays, Ezra’s attitude towards her had increasingly gotten better. Even a blind person could tell that he was nicer, more caring.At times, that kept Giselle up. It made her wonder what his true intentions were, after all, he was the one who proposed that they go into the contractual relationship and separate three months later. His attitude change left the brunette to storm her brain for answers.Letting out a sigh, Giselle rolled over in her bed, folding into a fetus position and using her arms as a make shift pillow. At this point, the brunette was obviously worn out from work and driving. She knew pondering over thoughts like these all night was not going to bring any answer forth, moreover, she was likely to wake up with headaches worse than her current o
Gregory’s talk seemed to go on for minutes with no end in near sight. For someone who had work to turn in, he sure had a lot to talk about.Sighing, Giselle placed up her hand with a tight smile, stopping Gregory on his current topic.“Mr. Fisher, don’t you have a ‘work piece’ to turn in?” She reminded.Gregory sighed, not wanting to end their conversation so early. He was particularly fond of Giselle when it came to all his ex employees.Taking a step back, the noirette nodded his head. “I in fact do. How about lunch, I’m sticking around for a few days.”‘A lunch offer? Again?’Skeptical about her answer, Giselle pressed her lips into a thin line. Rejecting Gregory‘s offers was something she could never bring herself to do. It wasn’t like she couldn’t say no, but his tone always held a certain tint to it that left her feeling curious.What if she rejected his offer? What if she went?Those questions always bounced in her head.Before Giselle had the chance to ponder his offer any fur
A misunderstanding that she caused. One that was probably gonna bring more distance between them, even though she didn’t know what it was.Even though distance was she wanted, in order to avoid what could no longer be avoided.‘No.’Giselle turned around and walked back into the office. Both Ezra and Jubril were surprised to see her.“Giselle, I’m busy right now…” before he could finish, Giselle turned to Jubril and commanded.“Jubril, get out.”The assistant didn’t have the energy to protest and gently placed down his clip board and went for the door, properly closing it as he exited.“What is the meaning of this?” Ezra asked as he forehead creased with a frown.Stepping closer to his table, Giselle folded her arms. “I should be the one asking that? You’re obviously pissed at something I did, Ezra, so what is it?”The determination in her eyes shone as she stood her ground.“It’s nothing you did, Giselle.” He confessed with a sigh.Indeed, he was speaking the truth. From his perspect
