Lips linking, sucking and faint moans could be heard from the background,
"Wait a moment Theodore" She said in the hot room and I took a moment to control my breathing… I dragged my eyes from her sweet body to meet her anxious blue eyes
"Are you sure you're not going to break my heart? I'm going to be the only woman in your life right?" She quavered
And for the nth time, I had to remind her "No baby, I'm not that kind of guy" I sneaked my arms around her waist and pulled her body closer
"I'll make a special place for you in my heart, just you and only you Okay? So give daddy a kiss so we can steer this wheel in another direction" I smirked before lunging in for another dirty kiss
"Theo wait!" She said again after pulling away and I had the urge to just get up and leave her at that moment but I was too turned on to do so...
"What's making that noise?" She questioned and started to look around
I furrowed my brows "What noise baby?"
"It's sounds like someone is banging on a desk"
"Oh! That's just my boss, no need to...Wait! It's my freaking boss"
*Comes back to reality...*
I was startled by the banging as I jumped off the desk and jerked my eyes open, only just to be blinded by another annoying factor, the lights. "Wake up you bone head! You know we don't pay you to sleep during working hours, besides what were you dreaming about? Your lips were about to kiss the air or something" He chuckled
I narrowed my eyes from the bright light before opening them again. Oh damn, It was just a dream... And I'm stuck here at work, What a drag...
"It was nothing" I sighed as I looked up to see my boss Glaring at me
He's such a load to work with, no wonder his wife left this fat ass for a gym instructor"Well, even if it was nothing or you were making love with the atmosphere I really don't care"
"Well if it was your daughter, I be you'd care" I said in a low voice
"Say what!"
"Nothing boss!" I replied almost immediately, I know he didn't hear me
"Anyway, you have a job. Go to the airport, there's someone waiting for you, her name is Gabi Moroñe. You're duty is to bring her back to this office before closing hours, and I want you to do it ASAP! Got that?" He said as he dropped the pickup sign and the car keys on my desk before walking out.
"Sheesh, when did I start running errands for the fat guy" I sighed as I picked up the car keys and the sign.
I really don't want trouble from him though, cause he's the worst I tell you, THE WORST.I walked out of my office and through the lobby to the front, where our company cars were parked, I got into the car and kick started the engines when my eyes recognized the small figure slowly approaching me
"Hey Ray, what's up" I said as I wind down the window
"Where're you headed?" He asked me as he leaned on the roof
"To go pick up some chick, miss something, I really can't remember her name right now" I sighed, remembering people's name hasn't really been my thing
"Then how're you going to pick her up Dumbo!" He face palmed himself
"Don't worry, I've got a pickup sign right here."
"Hope this ain't another game hummmmm" he said raising his brows, his eyes were wide and staring at me and the smirking with his teeth all out? Really man!
"Dude, you know I have to see my package before I decide, I'm off" I sighed as I put on my sun glasses and revised, before taking to the roads...
Is thistthe part where i introduhce myself? I guess...
Hi, my name is Theodore, Theodore Adams, I'm 26 years old, I work in a remodeling organization called MRC which is located at the coast side of Bene town, Konan City, A City that has a mixture of everything you'd never expect, from the good and quiet neighborhood like Beverly hills in US to a party like city like Las Vegas, That's Limpopo AKA the forgotten zone. You see, this City is broken down into three towns, One for the rich, the middle class and for the poor people. The forgotten zone is kind of the worst place you'd ever want to raise a child in, it's not called the forgotten zone for nothing, So let's take a stroll down memory lane okay?
Okay.*Long long time ago, Limpopo AKA Forgotten zone used to be a friendly town with lots of good people, until natural disasters happened, their buildings were collapsing and their businesses were closing, food supply got disrupted and crime rate just increased and blew up the charts. It was getting bad day by day and the government did nothing to help them, then one day, This guy wakes up and decides to run for mayor so he could help his people, they all supported him and they gave him all their votes, eventually he won but then he turned his back on them, was blinded by the money and politics I guess, he'd do good things for the other towns but he left Limpopo out, he never even glanced at his province again. The people lost hope in the government but when they finally pulled through for them, they bought substandard materials for them and it just pissed Limpoponians, they ran a mock, burning government properties, The government saw it as a chance and blew up the bridges connecting Limpopo to other towns, they said in the news that the Limpoponians did all of that, I know they lied about all that because they wanted to silence Limpopo forever and they didn't want Limpopo to ever get back on it's feet. It was tough for them because I know how that felt like, I was 7 when it all happened and even though I didn't know much, I knew the Limpoponians were good people, I lived amongst them before we moved to Bene and everything happened right after. After their outburst, the government brought a law on Konan City, it's said that movement from one town to another has been restricted via clearance, the only way you can enter another town is if you have enough money to do so, to live among the rich and middle class, The clearance thing was done mainly for Limpopo, other towns could enter Limpopo for a good time but People from the forgotten zone couldn't go to those other towns cause they didn't have money to do so, they could only send their children to school through the ferry so they can take them out of their poverty in the future. You can imagine how hard that rule was on Limpopo*
Now in the present time, in a whole year, only 7% of limpoponians ever get to leave that barren place to live a better life in the middle class, the rest just live like scavengers, that town is like the shadiest of the shady places I've ever seen, it just proves how inhuman our system is. I actually care about those people and if I could, I would do something about their situation but I can't so...
Enough of the sad story okay, let's talk about why I love the forgotten zone! As I was saying, Rich folks come here to run all shady business so its like Las Vegas but something close to that, and then when it's night time, oh la la, that's when the vampires get active. Not real ones though, but hell there are some parts of the town where even +18 can't get through, age limits around 24 I think, it's the sassiest place where you can become a drug addict in just one day, that's hell kitchen ya know, You can squash your four months salary in one night or 25 minutes if you're a newbie. And if you're a lady and you don't play your game right, you could get nocked up by some total stranger and then you'd find out he's a hobo who's a drug addict and he just pulled the ace up his sleeve so he could get a one night with you.High school seniors and College students often sneak into this part of the town, who'd blame them? They've heard stories. This side is also good for politicians because they can get cheap bodyguards and illegal stuffs, nowadays people would just do anything in order to survive and get the hell out of that place. I've seen Mayors come and go, they promise to help but they always fail, we're used to it.Who am I to complain, I fit in wherever I go, Limpopo, Bene, Mainland I've got cool and calm characters for the day and for night time.... Let's just say I would hit on any dinner that walks past me, I go for fresh blood mostly. I don't even give a damn if you're 17 years and 364 days old but I could lower my standards for a 50 years with a nice body, COULD. Its mostly like this, papa likee, papa wants it, papa gets it. I SEE IT, I LIKE IT, I WANT IT, I GAT IT!They call me many names, the king of play boys, play master, Sensei, The Fisher, you name it. But I had to cool off recently, I don't want women calling the cops on me and I'd rather not test my luck and see if it's a female cop so I can get away with it, if it's a male then I'm dead.I see a stupid blue Honda trying to cut through lines in front of me, I quickly horned
"Would you freaking stay in one place! Some of us have been here all afternoon!!" I scream. This is why I hate going to the airport, freaking traffic!
"Please would you let me enter" The guy said to me
"Broh, why don't you enter from my back?" I said but he ignored me and tried to cut into my line, I blocked him, you don't ignore Theo okay! You just don't
The car in front moved again and I gave small space between our cars so I could lead the Honda guy on, he falls for the bait and I move in to block him and then BAM! He bashed that other car's tail lights. The driver got out of the car and he is HUGEI laughed sarcastically as I joined the cue ahead, you're in big trouble Honda, that's what you get!
***45 minutes later**
The traffic eased up So I'm at the airport Waiting for a Gabi, bet she's middle aged
I saw a woman walking towards me when I raised my pickup sign"Well well well, what do we have here... Brunette, slim figure but her curves are visible, geared up in a suit and I see no wrinkles anywhere, she's tall like maybe 170 centimeters and she has surprisingly short hair, cat eyes, heart shaped lips and probably a cute smile" I murmured
She comes closer until she's standing face to face with me
"Miss Gabi?""Yes and you're Theodore right?" Cute feminine voice and oh! Brown eyes..."Yes, please to meet you ma'am, I was sent to come get you. I'm sorry I'm late though, the traffic was horrible"She brings out her hands and I shake them in return "Nice meeting you and I understand your reasons" Soft hands...
"Let me help you with your luggage that I cannot see" I said and she snickered a bit, how nice
"It's been taken care of, just take me to the office"
"No problemo"
She's cute and all but... ...She's Not my typeI kick started the engines and we were out of the Airport, I'd say the traffic actually got better because I was able to reach the car accident I created in no timeI wind down my window as I approached the Honda car"Hey dude, hope all is well? Wish you a safe journey to the police station" I wined up and sped out of that place."Who was that?" The woman who I just realized was in the car with me asked, it's not my fault, she's been silent since she got into the car so I kind of forgot she was here anyway"Oh! You startled me. Anyway, that was some dude who tried to cut lines" I shrugged"How long will the journey be?" She asked"Well let's say... maybe less than an hour that is, if there's no traffic" I replied"Maybe? You mean you're not sure?"Ugh duh... Why would I say maybe if I wasn't sure, is she trying to mess up my mood right now?Theodore turned to her with a dulled face as he rep
Previously on Playboy’s heart...“A round of applause everyone for the new president!” The fat guy said and we had no option but to clap, I can’t believe she’s the new boss, I need to be out of her radar if I want to keep this job, she’d better not remember me for her own good.Sorry, my own good. Hehe, it seems I’m getting paranoid just by looking at herShe collected the mic from fatso and spoke“Hello everyone, I’m Gabi Moroñe and I’m the new president of MRC, it’s so nice to see all of you are in good health. Regards from my father to all of your families, I hope the company is treating you right. Well, I’ll get down to business, I’ve been sent here to supervise the running of the company and to cut slackers who are just wallowing In piles of money, while their work sits all dusty in a corner, I am here to cut off ghost workers from the pay roll and make sure we get
“Dude, we need to stop taking shots and go home, we have a presentation tomorrow” Jerry tapped my shoulder, but I just wasn’t having it. I’ve been through a lot and I know what I need to night, it’s good beer and a freaking hot girl I turned to him, already half drunk and burping the place up. I hiccupped “Dude, if you want to, you can go home, I want to have fun tonight. After I met that witch, my life has just turned upside down. If you’re my friend, you’d support me and drink some more, the night is young and we need to party!!” Jerry looked at his drunk friend in disappointment, taking him to the club was the wrong thing to do but yeah, he was only trying to be supportive. It’s not like he’s a kill joy, he has a record of holding his beer after 10 shots, he doesn’t get drunk that easily and he would like to party with Theo till sunrise, but tomorrow is a big presentation, it’s really important that he shows his selection for Gabi's elite team isn’t
“Listen up everyone,” Gabi said as she barged into the board meeting room, she seemed very excited because indeed she had great news for the company.“I’ve got a gig for us and it’s a big one!” She jumped like a 15 year old girl receiving a brand new car as her birthday present. I sighed heavily because the fact that I was here witnessing all this bullshit just pissed me off“What is it Gabi? You’ve got to say something” Nate, the guy from the cafeteria who was her number one admirer rushed to her side, eagerly waiting for his eye candy to sprout nonsense and he’d still worship her. I was like, oh please… just wait till she embarrasses you and then you’ll know your boundaries“Yes well, the senator for oil and gas is moving to Konan city and she wants a renovation! And we are going to be there, this Friday to discuss the plans and how she wants it to look like but I want u
"Ma’am if you’ll permit me, are you the only one that would be staying here?” I asked and all eyes turned to me. This might be a good chance to show myself.“Actually, I’ll be moving in with my_” She got interrupted when the door cracked open and a teenage girl, probably 16 walked into the room“My daughter. Everyone, this is my daughter Lilly.” The senator smiled as Lilly came to a halt beside her“Hello everyone. Good day mother, Gretta told me you were done with your interview work so I wanted us to have lunch and I could see the designs myself”Every single thing she said was out of pure innocence but her eyes just kept jabbing into mine, she wouldn’t take her eyes off mine for a second, even when her mother gave her a response.She’s my winning ticket, I just know it.“Miss Lilly, you said you wanted to see the designs? Well why don’t you show me
“Dude you’ve got to tell us how you scored that deal, it was so obvious that the senator was going for GOC. What made her go with us?” Ray asked for the nth time as I gulped down my beer.Yep, you guessed it right, we’re at the bar, unlike the clubs in Bene, this place is just like my second home. You’d practically find me here any time I’m not working, it’s a good place to score a chick too. I come here to hang out with my friends and have a good time, it’s like our celebration corner and I know the guy who runs this place pretty much. “Its simple, I saw you guys failing and I stepped in to help. This means a big pay check is coming in soon” I smiled“Cheeky. Well, you’re the man, if you can’t get through to the mother then get through to the daughter. It’s that easy Ray” Jerry sipped his drink as his eyes roamed the bar “Aey! Look who’s learning from the boss, what have you been teaching this boy Theo? I hope you haven’t corrupted his eyes” Ray said
It’s been 2 months since Ray started dating Lucy. Perfect couple I tell you, if only she knew this was all a game. He’d pester me and say stuff like how I’ve lost my crown, but I’ve just been holding it all in. Every girl at work now think he’s the cool guy, the hot Playboy no one can resist no matter how much they try, it’s like he’s their new god or something and today, I’ve come out to put a stop to all this madness!.This game is coming to an end,I stormed out of my office and then I put my self in order before walking down the stairs to Ray’s office. Once I got there, I saw all the hot ladies at work just lined up and listening to some bull crap of his, even Reiner is amongst them. I can’t believe he'd go to her so quickly…“Hey there ladies, how are we?” I smiled as I wrapped my arms on the ones closest to me“Hey Theo” they all chorused.“Now, I wouldn’t like to interrupt but, you know if Gabi finds you here
It’s been a tough month for us, having other side contracts plus the senators big renovation. I can finally rest as the senator’s house renovations are coming to an end, we are only here to supervise the final touches before we bring it to an end. I’m super grateful Lily isn’t around because I don’t need pestering today. It’s all work and supervision, we’re checking on all the supplies and making sure everything is intact.“So far so good, everything is going fine. Please Ray and Nate I want you to stand by and watch them input the golden chandeliers and other accessories. Jerry and Sasha, you go take care of the rooms. Theodore, you’re with me” Eh? What now??“I said you’re with me” she tilted her head and I just stared at her. No way am I going anywhere with you, you’re evilll!!! Everything about you is evil, from your cat eyes to your newly dyed blonde hair, your plump
Theo was once again back in his office, doing absolutely... NothingBack where I seem to belong nowadays which is the office, don’t be surprised girls. Just looking at magazines can be a really interesting job I tell ya, It’s not like my Job’s got nothing to it, I’m just so creative that I tend to be lazy a times. Come to think of it, have you ever noticed that creative and intelligent people tend to be really lazy? They’d just lie tummy flat on the couch and watch Anime all day, and yeah anime is still a thing in this era, like how could it not be? Although Hentai is what groomed us all LOL, don’t do it if you don’t want to.Okay so back to me being lazy and reading a magazine, I really have no vibes for today, it’s like Monday morning just drains the life out of you, after such a great weekend of partying and getting high, you get to wake up to a boring Monday morning at work. I won’t hide it, as a transp
Gabi’s POV…Coming down to the last days of this project’s completion, I’ve come to understand the people of this place, why they do things they ought not to be doing, why there is clearly not a single school in the big town and how it’s basically people just trying to do anything just to get by. Now I get why that boy attacked me and stole my purse, if he had the proper guidance and education, he wouldn’t have done that. There’s not even a good mall here where people can come get foods and find a place to work, what I don’t understand is how, How can this once flourishing town be overshadowed with more than 12 Casinos and 45 hotels but not a single foundation to help those who are in need? I literally don’t get this, it’s like those people who live in main Land and squander money are inhumane! It’s not like I’m totally against them, no they’ve worked hard for their money and they simply d
I agree, me and Gabrielle have been facing some issues and it’s not nice to keep getting on the nerves of your prey so I’m going to try and make up for everything, even though I’m not sorry about any of those incidences, we are just not alike and I don’t hesitate to show it, but… Remember I’m trying to win here and gain lots of money so I really need to set aside our differences for the time being, I’m going to TOLERATE her notorious behavior but first let’s get on her good side okay?“Uhm guys if you’re down for some chilling, I know a place around the area with good booze and entertainment”“Ugh sure, since we’re done with work for today and we are in Limpopo so we might as well have fun right? Besides I’m damn tired and I really need a break from all this paper work” Cassie sighed as she stretched her limbs“Yeah I’m down”“I heard the
“… With that being said, we all know that we’ve had an ongoing contract with one of our clients concerning the renovations of some certain renowned buildings in Limpopo. I think you had that contract going on before I arrived in the company, it was precisely under the care of Mr. Pevesh who isn’t with us anymore as he has been promoted to the board of directors the week after I assumed my position as regional President of MRC in Konan city. I recently received the report that the project is in its final stages and I would like you, my elite right hand to come with me to supervise the final designs of the buildings and see if we need to step up the interior designs because I find Mr. Pevesh’s recommendations a little unsatisfying and he seemed to have calculated the budget for 4 months but this project extended for one more month so Cassie I want you to inform the finance team of this situation so we could get some more funds to finish this projec
CHAPTER 33Okay so we’ve gotta always hit the club and party, after what seems to be a successful day, I definitely deserve a treat of fine booze and beautiful women.“Jer want to hang out? I wanna go to the club to chill for a while, I’m calling Ray to come join us so are you in?”“Yeah sure, I need a drink myself” He sighed. Honestly even though the day didn’t go as planned, I know I’m glad I didn’t get fired. Well, even though I don’t really care pfft! Like I said before, I can live without a job, maybe I’d start pro gambling and be that dude dressed in all black that makes the whole room go silent when he steps in, I’d probably go to the deep dark depths of Limpopo and rule the underground, but that’s not a real flashy life you know what I’m saying? I’d only be a king that rules the night like a werewolf but with no Luna… you know the reason“Get in the car
“Just what the hell are you implying Cassie?” I grunt. She's at it again, seriously Jer you need to pull your bish together and in place!“You’re saying I woke up Sunday morning, picked up my laptop and thought it was fun to mess around with some photos from our vacation JUST TO PISS OFF GABI?” I say sarcastically, Although whoever did this… did a real great job! Like??? Look at those damn fine legs, so slender and looking sexy in that sunlight Lord! Man, whoever said the sun wasn’t a great filter for picture.And can I further ELABORATE on my chiseled chest popping out of my flower printed shirt, just out there doing its thing to the ladies. This picture clearly originated from when we were playing volleyball, as for Gab’s I don’t know. You’d be thinking what’s the fuss over this picture? It’s basically just two adults in their swimwear holding each other in a sexy highly over detailed
So...storming out and leaving everyone in disarray was quite nice and Theo like, you know, smooth and on flick, like the boss I am hehe But then... When I got back to my room and had a nice bath everything just came crashing in on my little head. I mean, my inner conscience which is the smart and reasonable Theo, not the big Theo down there trust me he's been talking these past few days I've just not been paying attention.*sighs*Back to what I was saying, so little Theo had us thinking, we just walked out on our boss on the very last day of our resort, clearly forgot that she was our boss for some brief minutes and went ahead to DISOBEY her in front of her other employes when we could'nt win because it was a case of one against the world and my decision at that moment didn’t even give a shit about me like, I had my back against the wall and the worst case scenero was me walking out the theatre and ruining everyone's spirits. WHICH I DIDSo yeah, trust th
Last day at the island…Mann… what I would give just to stay a few more days on this island. I would soo love to go treasure hunting cause it’s an island and you know the saying that all islands always have some hidden treasure laying somewhere, I guess that’ll be an adventure for another vacation. I’ll make sure I add this to my bucket listMake sure to visit this island twice.One is going to just be me alone and then the second time would be… just me?huh, I guess I’ll give it more thought. But it wouldn’t kill to just go treasure hunting on the last day, right? I’ll go tell the guys about this. Yay I’m so excited!…. Few minutes later…“Who in the world gave you that idea?” Jer looked at me like I was some crazy person. But I’m not, right guys? Like if you got the chance to go treasure hunting or hiking with me you’d soo totally lov
CHAPTER 29 II“What the f**k was that Theo!!” Ray screamed as we all stopped to catch our breath inside the abandoned building.“Hey, I was just trying to have some fun eeh. Isn’t that what we’re here for? And God! I can’t believe you all fell for that” I chuckled“Ha ha very funny, we still need to get the hell out of here” Cassie said and the other girls also murmured yes“You’re afraid because of a stupid lie that receptionist said? Y’all are just a bunch of chickens. It’s clearly fake” Nate huffed stealing the limelight. I’m sure he wants to act tough just cause Gabi's here but dude, I created this whole scenario and it’s going to go the way I planned it“Reiner babe, you’re not scared are you?” I asked as I held her chin up so she could look directly into my eyes. She was a bit caught off guard an she trembled beneath me but she still whispered a No. “Good. And what about you boss? You scared?” I turned to look at Gabi who had been silent sinc
