"Landon"
"Go away"
"We need to talk" I banged the door, yet no reply
"Landon, baby please"
"I'm never listening to your lies"
" Landon open up"
" Leave me alone"
I paced around,
" Let's both go out with Malcolm just as you wanted"
" I don't want to go anywhere with you" he replied.
I needed Tia to try coax him
I went downstairs to see Nina helping herself to huge delicacies lined in front of her.
The woman had guts.
"Tia" I called out, and she came immediately.
"Pack everything, not a single dish should remain"
Nina rolled her eyes.
"This is nothing compared to what I eat daily" she scoffed.
"Than go back and continue eating what you eat daily"
"I'll only go back when I've succeeded in kicking you out"
" You won't, no matter what you try"
" I won't be so confident if I were you"
"What did you tell Lan? I asked
"Ohh" she relaxed against the couch, crossing her legs.
"That you were cheating on him? And that the guy in dark goggles was one of the men you were seeing, it's pretty easy to manipulate him in his condition"
"You have no shame Nina" my blood boiled with rage.
"How Could you?
" Too easy" she replied, unbothered.
I wanted to hold her by the hair, and kick her out.
I had to be calm, I could not give her and Gareth the chance they'd been looking for.
"Tia come with me" I ignored her.
Tia followed me, and we both went upstairs.
"Can you open up Landon?
" No"
She tried again..
" I prepared your favorite, I want to play another game with you too"
" The both of you should go away" he replied.
Tia stared at me helplessly.
"Go on Tia, I'll take it from here"
"Landon, hear me out" I knocked on the door.
There was no response from him.
Heck!
This man wasn't going to give in easily, I knew how stubborn he was.
I went back to my room, trying to concentrate on emails, and drafting documents for work.
But I could barely concentrate.
He was the only thing on my mind.
The next morning, I got Tia to help me.
He had to give in this time.
If Gareth and Nina Could play dirty, I also could.
"Good morning Lan" Tia continued despite the lack of response from him
"Gareth is here to see you"
"Gareth is there? He asked.
I urged Tia to go on.
" Yes he is, and he want to see you"
She said, and I could hear the sound of footsteps.
The door opened and he stood staring from Tia to me.
"Liars are very bad, I hate liars" his eyes were on me.
"We need to talk" I walked in before he could bolt the door.
"I do not want to talk to you" he turned away.
I moved closer, wrapping my arms around him.
" Are you tired of me? Will you leave me for him?
If only he knew that I could never leave him for anything.
" I'm not going to leave you Kingston, I love you, I really do"
"What is Bexley to you then? He sounded so cute, I could not help but smile.
" Bexley is only a staff at the company, he's not even as handsome as you "
He turned,
" Are you sure? His eyes searched mine.
"I've never seen a more handsome man than the one in front of me"
He smiled, a blush crept across his cheeks.
"I love you Ren, spend the day with me"
"Of course" I replied, wrapping my arms around him.
"I love you very much" I whispered,
"I would never leave you for anything baby" I stared deeply into his preety eyes.
"Will you make out more time for me please?
"I will" I hugged him and kissed his cheeks.
I had to look for a way to get Gareth and Nina out.
If they stayed another week, they would pollute the relationship between Landon and I.
Landon was not against them staying, it would be very difficult to kick them out.I had to make out more time from my tight schedule, more time to stay home and look after Landon, or everything would come to nothing."Are you hungry Lan? I asked." Have you eaten? He asked."No I didn't" I repliedI didn't eat last night, I went straight to bed mad with worry about the company, about Nina, Gareth and Landon."Let's eat together then" Landon smiled After eating, Landon and I cuddled up together watching his favorite cartoon shows."I like spending time with you Ren" he whispered"I'll spend as much time as I can with you, I promise"" You won't leave me for that dude would you?"Never" I replied and he snuggled closer.Spending time with Landon was much better than enduring lot's of toxic employers and dealing with complaints from board of directors.I turned off my phone, Skipping work for one day would not affect the company's finances..I turned to Landon."Let's do whatever you wa
"Are you okay Landon? I asked" I missed you " he replied." I missed you too " I breathed in relief,Nina watched me, a sly smile on her face."We didn't murder him, he's okay, why do you hate us so much?she was putting on an act again.I wanted to hit her repeatedly till she was dead.I ignored her." Nina and Gareth are very nice, I want to spend time with them too" " Let's talk upstairs Landon"I ignored both Nina and Gareth and walked upstairs with Lan." Did they say anything to you?"No" he replied."Why do you hate them? His brows furrowed.There was no way he'd believe that his brother was the very one rooting for his downfall, followed by his manipulative wife."I do not hate them, I'm only doing this to protect you""They're not bad"His attention slipped away from me to his toys.One day he would understand.I went to my room, freshened up, and focused on work.Tia came in."There's someone here to see you"From her face, I could tell that it was no good."Eddie" she add
The doctor stood in the living room waiting for me."Good morning Mrs Kingston" he cleared his throat.He was here for Landon, and I was for terrified for Landon.He could get into another one of his episodes."Good morning Doctor""Let's go upstairs"Landon was up already, he stared at me and then at the doctor.He trembled, stepping backwards." Landon "" Don't let him inject me ""Landon please"He stepped backwards till he's against the wall.The doctor stared at me, his eyes pleading for help.I walked towards Landon."Please Ren, don't let him near me" he held my hands."Landon, he's going to help you get better, please calm down""No I don't want to get better, he's bad, very bad"I held him close."Landon please"He whimpered, his body rocking, he shivered against me.I felt the pain, the fear, Landon was afraid of injections right from the very first day.I held him close and motioned for the doctor."Close your eyes Landon, it'll be over before you know it"He held me tight
"Landon""Don't ever ask them to leave""But..""You can leave if you want " he walked out, I followed." Landon are you okay?"I'm not" he raised his voice"Why do you hate my family? Why do you hate me?"You know that's no true""Don't come close" he threw the next thing he could lay his hands on.The glass shattered on the floor.I frozed, I'd never see him so angry."If you don't want to stay with me you can just go""Stop it, stop it please" the tears spilled.He could not understand all I was doing for him."Landon I'm sorry"He Shaked his head."I'm really sorry""Leave, just leave""Lan I..." Go "I walked out, I called Tia to get the pieces of glass sonhe could not hurt himselfI went back to my room.Nina and Gareth were definitely having the best time.They'd successfully triggered Landon.I sat by the bed side, overwhelmed, there was so much to do.There was no one by my side.I was fighting hard to protect this man, it was so hard.Someone knocked at the door"Ren please
"what has he done this time? I ask, as I stepped into the big mansion."How did you know ma'am? The house help trembled." I feel it"" I didn't mean to, I couldn't stop him " " I know " I replied and she trembled as she followed me.It wasn't a surprise, once again, Landon had turned the quarter to a mess, different toys sprawled on the floor, food and drinks spilled all over, and he was on one side clearly unaffected."What's this? Landon fucking King? He turned and flinched." I missed you so much, you weren't here" he said, his brown eyes sparkling, innocently. "Is that why you made a mess? Just look around" "Don't yell at me" he stood up and stared at me, a sulky expression on his face."Of course" I rolled my eyes."Can I hug you? He asked"Yeah " I replied, I can't stay mad at him, he knows.In a second, he's all over me, holding my waist, my own hands on his shoulder."I missed you""I missed you too" I replied.I missed the side of him I used to know.The side of him be
Absolutely No one I could Rely on.I had to be strong if I wanted to win."You won't win to the Rival's if you invest" Bexley pounded his fist on the table.I was seated in front of Landon's board of directors.They did not want me as the Ceo of the company, and they made it known.There was nothing they could do about it tho, I was in charge, they had to accept it."I've made my decision, we'll invest""And incur losses? Bexley raised his eyebrow." This is a wrong path "" Me jerkins, I appreciate you, but this is what I want " I said and they murmured amongst themselves." I've thought about this thoroughly, and this is the only way to win "" We'll loose everything " Mr Grant glared at me." Y'all have to trust me " "We've accepted you, not enough? Bexley asked a smug expression on his face." You've accepted me, work on trusting me" I smiled."I'll see you all tomorrow" I stood up.I went straight to my car, not stopping to acknowledge any comments they made.I was getting home
THREE YEARS AGO."Are you here for the interview? The lady with the glasses and a mole on her cheeks asked."Yes " I replied."You're next in line, good luck"The moment I stepped into the office, I wanted to turn and go back.The man staring at me was very handsome, His aura enveloped me like air.He was a sight to behold, pointed nose, tanned skin, beautiful sparkling eyes, he emitted strong charm.He could make any woman go weak in the knees if he stared at her like this....The light weight silk suit he wore was slightly buttoned, I could see the outline of his chest.He was one of those guys that girls dreamt and fantasized about. He fiddled with his pen, and I stared at those veiny hands."Ren or?..." Ren" I replied."Files?I gave him the files." You're looking for a secretary right?"I'm looking for a wife" His eyes flickered over every part of my body and my cheeks heated.He chuckled."Why do you want this job?" I've always wanted this job, I know I'm capable, I'll giv
"I'll make it back to you when I get back""That's what you always say, I'm so lonely without you" his eyes clouded."You have Malcom, and his friend, what's the name again? I asked"His friend's name his Jade" his eyes lit up."I'll play with you when I get back I promise"He nodded."You'll be a good boy till I get back?" Yes " he replied.Landon was all I could think about at the meeting.Tho I'd tightened security, I had to be with him every hour. "Have you heard the news? Bexley asked bringing me out of my reverie." No I haven't "There wasn't any time for me even check the news."We're ranking number one currently, the investment was a huge success"I smiled."You did well" he addedI knew how difficult it was for him to say those words, but I felt good.My husband's company was not facing bankruptcy, instead it was moving forward every day."We do need to trust your decisions, I must admit" Mr jerkins smiled at me." I appreciate y'all's trust and support, to more greater he

"I'll stay with you" Landon said, and I smiled."I love you" I took his hands, enjoying the look on Gareth's faceI took him upstairs.Nina and Gareth, could pose as a big distraction, and I could not afford to be distracted.I had meetings, choking deadlines to meet, huge workload.What if something bad happens?They weren't the only one I was worried about, what if his other siblings decide to show up?I won't be able to forgive myself if something happens to Landon.My phone beeped, I'd forgotten all about the celebration party.Bexley was texting me the location, and I had to show up.Failure to do so, and everything could go low.I had to establish their trust before taking any risk.There was only one person I could trust right now concerning Landon, Tia could take care of him till I was back from the party."Do not let Gareth or Nina close to him" I warned."You can stay here with him""Tia do you want to hear about Malcom and Jade?
