BLAIR POV

Once we were at the entrance lobby, Ronnell spoke to the security guards, making them aware of the man spiralling outside on the sidewalk, then he bundled me into the executive elevator and crowded me into the corner.

He braced his hands on the wall beside my head, while he swept his gaze over me. “Are you all right?”

I slowly nodded. “Sure, I'm fine.”

To be honest, I truly was okay. For a split amount of seconds, I had been afraid of what Tyler might do, but with Ronnell's immediate and unwavering protection, I felt safe.

“I didn't mean for any of that to happen. I'm deeply sorry that you had to see and listen to that crap.”

“Well, I'm sorry you had to deal with that crap. That guy Is a true jerk and a coward as well.”

He paused, frowning at me. “Wait, you're not angry that I made sure his lease was cancelled?”

“Why would I be?”

“He wasn't wrong, Blair.” He reached around the back of my head and pulled the end of my hair over my shoulders, wrapping a chunk of it around his

    BLAIR POVI stared at Ronnell, my gaze lingering. For the first time since we’d entered his office, the flawless veneer he usually presented had cracked, revealing a raw vulnerability beneath. I couldn’t claim to understand the complexities of dating a wealthy man, but I could empathise with the challenges. Trust must be a scarce commodity, always shadowed by doubts about another person’s intentions.I knew I had ended up in Ronnell's bed because of my growing feelings for him, and those feelings wouldn’t have changed if he was as broke as me. He probably knew that too, but I didn't doubt that he could question it sometimes. “I know that uncertainty and distrust is no place to begin a relationship,” I softly began. His nostril flared. “I never said I didn't trust you. I do trust you, and I already explained my reasoning.” “And I trust you.” I sighed another breath. Leaning forward, I picked up the pen he had laid beside the papers. “I'm going to sign these papers so we can move on

    BLAIR POVBrittany was back in town for business and I had decided to stop by at her place for a while. Brittany blinked at me. “No way.”I nodded, picking up a second glass of my non alcoholic wine. “Yes.”We were seated on the rooftop of the building she had hired to stay in during that period. With two bottles of wine and a pile of snacks in our middle. I had just spilled everything that had happened between me and Ronnell. She shook her head. “Who would have thought that your boss who was almost getting your head chopped off could be the second most outrageous thing that could happen to you?” I snorted a laugh. “I also can't believe that I have been going intimate with Ronnell. What in the world have I been thinking?” I would have honestly thought all of this happening for a few months were unreal If not for the fact that Nathan was still in his house, and my breasts were mottled with his marks. Why was that so hot?“I sincerely don't think you were, you literally cried on the

    RONNELL POVWilliam approached the table with two women surrounding him, the one with the redhair hanging off his shoulder. He introduced us to them. “Ronnell, and Mathew,” he began. “And this is Rita and Ariana. I begged them to join us for a drink. I basically had to use my charms to make them come join us.”Ariana took a seat beside me and Rita sat beside William, we knew that Mathew was married and didn't flirt around even when we came to bar’s like this. Everyone seemed pinned off in one conversation or the other that I was forced to have small talk with Ariana, she was twenty four year old and worked in an accounting department. She had alot to share about that topic, So much that she didn't notice that I had completely tuned her out, going over my weekly schedule on my mind and What Blair would be doing right now. “What do you do?” She asked breathlessly, as though she just ran a long mile on her heels.“I'm no home to write about, just think of me as a red flag.” I deadpanned

    BLAIR POVRonnell hadn't shown up at my desk or even spoken to me ever since the night at the bar. Not that I had expected it anyway. That night had probably screwed up our chances of having a light, fun friendship like we used to. In my mind. I wanted to lay all the blame on him, but it was just as much my fault. When he had me pinned against the wall that night at the bar, I could have just left. I mean, he hadn't been holding me captive. Despite the fact that anyone could have seen us like that, including my date and his friends, those dangers hadn't crossed my mind until later. It had been all of Ronnell's tongue on my skin, his dick prodding my belly, his body looming over mine. For those breathless moments, he had consumed me. In the cold light of the day, I had understood how careless I had been. This was Ronnell. My boss. Ella's brother. Nothing like that could happen in the open again. The moment I turned on my computer, I logged into my email. There at the bottom was an

    BLAIR POVI sighed, before staring deep into his eyes. I honestly didn't have any clear idea why he was acting this way but fine, I was going to give him what he was asking for. “Alright, we should absolutely go back to how things were before.” I staçked my hands on my lap, smiling pleasantly. It was a good show while it lasted. “But wait, which before are we even talking about? The one where we met at your sister's engagement? When you asked me to stay at your house? How about before you started keeping a nice note on my breakfast plate every morning, Ronnell?”“Blair—” he reached for me, but I drew my hands away, causing his frown to deepen. “I think there is no need for argument if we both agree, right?” he added.“I'm not arguing. I'm asking you how you would like me to behave towards you.”“Professional,” he answered flatly.A sharp pain sliced through me, and my stomach lurched, but I made sure it didn't show. If Ronnell wanted to be professional, that was what he would get. La

    BLAIR POVI had flown the aeroplane, and that had been in a few cases but I had not exactly flown a first class. Needless to say, the possibility of flying first class on a business trip hadn't crossed my mind, so I was surprised to learn that I was when I checked in.I was also told I had access to the first-class lounge, and though I was curious what went on in there, I decided to hang out in the boarding area. The number of people watching in airports was second to none. No way I would give that up for a fancy lounge. Besides, I had a delicate text exchange to deal with. Letting down Henry gently wasn't fun. The worst part was that he was kind about the entire thing. Staying out of the first-class lounge also meant avoiding running into Ronnell untill we eventually boarded the plane.He was already seated when I boarded and his brow winged when I walked by him to take a seat on the opposite side, an aisle back. If he had anything to discuss with me, he could send me an email. Ther

    BLAIR POVA welcoming committee awaited us at our first stop. Two men and a woman in suits were flanked by three imposing figures, each bearing a prominent security badge. As we approached, a woman detached herself from the group.The slow, perusing smile she gave Ronnell was on direct contradiction to the proffessional handshake she offered. He took her hand in his, cupping it with his other. His eyes crinkled at the corners. “It's good to see you, Zelda.”She leaned in, her red lips glistening. “It's really good to see you, Ron. It's been too long.” This woman standing before us was stunningly beautiful. Tall and slender, with curvy hips and a tiny, nipped waist, she looked like the Hollywood version of a professional business woman. Her nice choice of outfitting could have come directly from the wardrobe department. Her glossy waves looked like they had just been touched up by her beauty team. I wasn't even jealous. I was sort of dumbfounded that this woman existed in real life.“

    RONNELL POVIt was late, well past midnight. Sleep, however, was a distant dream. I stood outside Blair’s door, the thin panel separating our rooms. Had she noticed the peculiar arrangement? I'd listened intently more than once, hoping to catch a sound, a whisper of her presence.silence, was all I could hear. I rested my head against the door.I had screwed up today and hadn't even realised it while I had been doing it. When I sank into work mode, personal relationships didn't really exist at that time. Zelda riding with me to do the second security building inspection had been natural. We'd been doing it that way for several years now. A habit. But that was no excuse. Raphael and Lucas were harmless, but they were also A-grade assholes who talked shit about their own wives and had no sense of humor. I knew that the hour's drive with them had been epically painful. She deserved an apology from me but before telling myself the hundreds of reasons I shouldn't, I raised my hand and

Even after two years of being together, he still wasn't fed up of his wife, rather he even craved more of her as the day went by.“I know but I need to be free, not caged.” She joked, walking into the kitchen to grab herself more snacks. “The doctor said you will be ready to pop any day now and I want to make sure you don't wonder around and have a baby somewhere unpleasant.”“Pop? You make it sound like I'm carrying a balloon and I know what the doctor said, and I know where I'm going to go but you won't even let me outside the house.” Blair grumbled, grabbing herself some pickles , cheese, tuna, peanut butter and some fresh grilled meat .

    BLAIR POVWilliam stumbled out of Daniel's hospital room, looking more like a ghost than a man. "Can you believe it?" he muttered, rubbing his face. "Shot in the butt, and still acting like he's on cloud nine. They're taking him in for surgery, but he told them to leave the scar big and bold. He said, and I quote, ' Chicks dig scars.' That guy, he's... unbelievable____."He broke off, and Ronnell didn't hesitate to pull his oldest friend into a tight hug. Sarah stationed herself to the side, rubbing them both up and down their backs. Daniel was going to live. He had been fine. A gunshot to the ass wouldn't stop him for long. But there had been long, harrowing minutes of silence where none of us had known where he had been hit. Okay, firstly we thought it was his chest that got shot because all we saw was blood. So much blood. Daniel had passed out from the pain and blood loss, and I had watched William and Mia crumble. They had fallen to his knees and cried over Daniel's body. Mathe

I knew something was off when she didn't show, but this was a whole new level of wrong. I didn't see this coming, and I didn't like it one bit. A no-show at the bar was bad enough, but this? This was a total shock. I didn't expect this twist, and I definitely wasn't prepared."Don't worry, Princess. I've got this." I pressed a reassuring kiss to her temple. "No one is going to hurt you."I gave her to Mia and Sarah, who enfolded her between them without me having to say a single word. Then I stepped forward to intercept the two unwanted guests, Weston and Mathew, on one side of me, security guard

    BLAIR POVI had been more of a wreck than I had suspected. It had taken me several minutes to clean up the black tear tracks from my cheeks. Once I was good as new and there was no chance of more tears, I left the restroom, eager to find Ronnell. Hopefully, he was finished with the security. I didn't think I had properly thanked him for the name of the building. Then again, the way I wanted to thank him was better left behind doors. My dress swished around my legs as I strode down the hall. The clinking of glasses and din of conversation swirling with the music from the string quartet grew louder with each step, but as soon as I reached the mouth of the hallway, a man stepped in front of me, stopping me dead in my tracks.“Hey, Blair.”The last time I saw Tyler, he had been making a scene in front of Ronnell's company. We hadn't heard from him since, so I had assumed he had slinked back into the slimy hole he had come from. Apparently not,“Tyler, you shouldn't be here. Ronnell told

    BLAIR POVI walked back into the kitchen to find Daniel holding the monitor, and the others were gathered around, intently watching the live feed from the nursery.“Are you spying on my baby?” I teased. “Yes,” Daniel responded unabashedly. “This is cool as hell. You can just watch your kid whenever you want to?”“Of course, I can. I’m not as neurotic about watching him as I used to be, though.”Mia laughed. “Let me guess, Ronnell is?”I grinned. “Uhmmm, he finds it soothing having the monitor really close by.”William shook his head. “Yeah, I can see Ronnell as a total hover father.” When he realized what he had said, that he called Ronnell a father, he clamped his mouth shut. “Hey, it's fine,” I assured him. “He is absolutely a hover father, but I like it. It makes me feel not so crazy.” Daniel turned the sound up to listen in on Ronnell and Emmanuella talking. “Can I be aunt Emmanuella already?” “Yeah, that would be alright with me and Blair.” Emmanuella sighed. “I think you s

    RONNELL POVDinner was easy and totally stress free. Frankie was babysitting Nathan upstairs, and as much as I loved my son very much, I had to admit having adult time was a very nice change.After we ate, Blair went upstairs to feed Nathan before we left for the party while the rest of us cleaned up. There wasn't much to clean up since we had ordered in, but there were a few dishes and utensils.Emmanuella held up a plastic container. “Do you recycle or do you keep these for spare storage?”“You can recycle.” I opened a cabinet to show her the stack of take out containers we had kept. “we have tons of collections.”Her eyes flared. “Oh my God. Ronnell! Don't tell me you do not cook for my best girl? Don't you know that you are suppose to cook for your girlfriend. I and my Fiancee are terrible cooks, but he's marginally better, so he insists on doing most of the cooking. Blair deserve that amount of treatment too.”“She does deserve it, you are right.” I lifted a shoulder, unbothered.

    BLAIR POVThe day of reckoning finally arrived. Smith was due in town, and we had to confront him with the truth: Ronnell, not him, was Nathan's father. We'd exchanged a few text messages over the past week, but each day had brought a growing unease. Something about this whole situation felt... off.Perhaps, I was nervous because I had left him believing that he was the father of Nathan. Ronnell came into the room carrying Nathan. He had learned to blow raspberries recently and hadn't honestly stopped showing off his new skill. Anyone who came within arms reach of him instantly became drenched in his saliva, but nothing dettered Ronnell. When he saw his new trick, he proclaimed him a super genius and didn't even blink when he drenched his shoulder with his drool. “He hasn't replied yet?” Ronnell questioned patting Nathan softly on the back. “No.” I held up my phone. “I guess he is busy saving the world to reply but he's a notoriously bad texter, so…”I hadn't heard from Smith for a

    BLAIR POVRonnell offered me my job back, and I happily accepted. I was relieved to learn he hadn't let go of his new assistant; instead, he transferred her to another department. I sat down at my desk, unable to keep the satisfied smile off my face. Being in love and being loved back made my mundane, everyday tasks feel a lot less tedious.I was so excited to be back to the office and my desk. As I pulled my belongings from the neatly stacked box, I noticed a small tear in the cardboard. To my surprise, the tampon inside had been jostled loose and was now upside down and facing the wrong way.My palms were sweaty as I picked up the envelope. The papers inside were scattered and rumpled, and a cold dread washed over me. Someone had been searching through my things. The only person who had been in the office and could go through my stuff was Ronnell. Had he found my papers?But…but… he hadn't even mentioned it to me, and we had barely even spent a second apart from each other yesterda

We understand each other now.” Lowering herself to the bench, her knees on the outside of my hips, she held my face in her hands gently. I should have been mortified by the tears I had let loose, but she pressed her lips to each one, never asking where they had come from or why they were even there. She kissed them away. Just like that.My Blair. My princess.Her fingers stroked through my wet hair, and her lips slid along my cheeks, soothing me, caring for me in the way only she could.“I love you, Ronnell.” She murmured. “I have cared for you for a long time, even when you drove me mad, but I think it started to turn into love when I walked into my bedroom after you let me sleep all night and there you
