Olivia

And with one last suck on my lower lip, he let me go.

"Now that's how you give a proper kiss." He said, taking his hands off me. For a while, I was too shocked to even move, too dazed to even speak.

"Mhmm." I hummed and nodded when I finally found my voice.

I got off him and rolled to the other side of the bed before getting off it.

Asher did too. He stretched as the duvet slipped off his body.

"W…..w…Why are you shirtless?" I asked him, still in the kiss moment.

Would I even ever get out of it?

"Oh." Was all he said before picking up a black material from the floor. It was his shirt.

"I take off my clothes during my sleep." He said, strolling past me.

What?!

Who the hell does that? It wasn't like the room was hot!

Well, it got a little heated up when Asher kissed me back.

"I really don't know why I do that but I guess it's become a habit." He smiled, turning to face me.

Okay now, I couldn't take my eyes off his chest. It looked like it belonged to a freaking greek god!

    Olivia"Sebastian?!" I and Asher screamed simultaneously.What the fuck?!"You said he was still in his room?" I frowned, turning to Asher.The look on his face showed that he was as surprised as I was."Honestly, I thought he was." He responded in a low voice, taking his attention back to the brown haired man in front of us."Hi guys." He beamed at us. Well, at least he dropped the formality and said hi this time."How are you here?" Asher asked him, taking further steps into his office.I did same too and just as I had anticipated, Asher's office was classically complex.It wasn't just plain, or modern. It was creative but in a formal way and the paintings which had been made directly on the wall brought even more class to the office.He seemed to have a thing for paintings."Well, while you two were arguing about when to kiss and when not to…." Sebastian paused, staring at Asher and I with that corny look he had back at the theater.I can't believe he actually heard all of that. We

    Asher"Mother?"How did Sebastian not see her coming in?Did she know of Sebastian's plan and then wait for him to leave before coming in?Well, I wouldn't be surprised if that were the situation."Good morning son." She smiled at me, keeping a too-obvious distance from Olivia.Speaking of Olivia…..I didn't want her to feel uncomfortable at the house, knowing that my mother could get in whenever she wanted.Asides from having this job as a cover-up for her dad, her safety was another reason I had employed her here.I got off my seat, staring at my mother."Good morning ma'am." Olivia managed to snap out of the shock we were both in, and greet her.But being the woman that she was, my mother completely ignored Olivia."I see you brought this filthy thing here." She hissed, showing her disagreement over Olivia's presence."I won't have you insult my girlfriend mother!" I forewarned and my mother only laughed out, loudly."Oh common son! You can't fool your mother, you know. Even if you

    OliviaI took my flace closer to the tinted glass wall to see what was happening in Asher's office but unfortunately, I still couldn't see anything.It was clear to me now that the walls were made so that one could only see outside from inside, but not inside from outside.It was soundproof too so I couldn't hear anything but I bet Asher was in a heated argument with his mother.He looked too angry before I left, like he could break something or someone, anything at all.His mother on the other hand, looked like she was ready to fuel his anger.I wanted to regret not walking away when Asher gave me the chance to but I knew it was way past late to do that now.What was her problem with me anyway?Asides the fact that I was black and not at the same social status with her, she just seemed to have a special hatred for me."Why didn't Asher consider his mother's obsession over high class ladies and go for someone like that? Definitely he was going to find someone that could act strictly a

    OliviaWhat?!"T….t…Tomorrow?" My throat went itchy and my lungs dried up of breath.Asher sighed, rubbing his forehead."My mother brought the date for the dinner forward….." Asher paused, taking my hand."Honestly Olivia, I don't know what she's planning. And I'm sorry if I'm being selfish right now but, I do not wish for us to back out. But like I said, I'll let you make your own decisions. You can still decide to leave if you want to." He proposed, smiling a little at the end.His forehead had wrinkled in worry. And for the first time since we met, I actually saw frustration on Asher's face.Even though he tried to sound convincing, his jade orbs glinted in a way that showed deep down, he really didn't wish for me to leave.But how can this woman be this wicked?!Why would she do such a thing to her own son?!Just to get rid of me, she was willing to disgrace Asher.Just when I thought Cinderella was the only being unfortunate enough to have a wicked and selfish mother, Mrs Smith

    Writer's POV"Uh….Hi?" Gloria greeted shyly, poking her head out of the door.Asher, Olivia and Sebastian turned to her, freezing on their spots. For a very slight second, they had actually expected to see Mrs Smith.They all sighed when Gloria's small face showed up instead."Oh…Hi Gloria." Asher returned her greeting, waving at her."Come on in." Sebastian said, ushering her into the house."I hope I wasn't interrupting anything." She said, looking at both men."Nothing much. Thank you for coming." Asher spoke this time."Olivia will be joining you soon. Kindly wait for her at the backyard." Asher said to Gloria who nodded immediately.Olivia understood that Asher wanted her to bathe before her practice with Gloria.It wasn't the first time Gloria had been to Asher's house.She had in the past, when Anita had tried to tie her to Asher but fortunately for Asher, Gloria only liked him as a good customer and nothing more.She went to the backyard, leaving the two men in the living room

    Olivia"Ah!" I gasped, when Asher caught me midair, just before my epic fall.My heart was beating rapidly against my chest as I clung tightly unto the collar of his shirt.We just stared at each other for a while, our eyes spilling untold emotions. I watched carefully as Asher's eyes darted from my face, to the pool, and then the heels on my feet.He gently helped me back and the next thing he did, surprised the shit out of me.After Asher had taken me away from the pool, he swooped me off my feet into his wide comfortable arms. Not for a minute did I ever take my eyes off him.Subconsciously, I wrapped my arms around his neck, still watching his face.Asher took me to the bench and carefully dropped me there.I was too surprised by his sudden appearance before my crash into the pool. I couldn't even stop him when he started to take the shoes off."Allow me to do that sir." Gloria offered, snapping out of her own shock and walking over to the bench "You've done a lot already Gloria.

    OliviaAsher had refused to stand down. He maintained that I had to be a perfect kisser before we went for his family dinner.We were definitely not going to have to kiss for long seconds.Why then was it so relevant to him that I became extra good at kissing and reciprocating a kiss?Over and over, he would kiss me, and ask me to kiss him back or he would ask me to initiate the kiss instead.I never knew there were even rules to being a good kisser.What was it with rich people and living every moment of their lives according to rules, anyway?The first step to being a good kisser, was being confident enough to initiate a kiss, even in front of a huge crowd.And of course, one would never be confident enough to do that if he didn't possess good breath and what Asher called face charm.Face charm was simply the ability to lock eyes with the one that would be kissed.After he said that, I realized staring at me all through dinner was all face charm.I should have known.I didn't need m

    AsherIt was indeed a struggle for me, staying away from Olivia. She really didn't have to remain in the room with me. I only made her stay because I wanted her presence.I hated to admit it, but I had grown to enjoy being around Olivia. She's only been here for three days but I had grown used to being around her.Probably because it's been ages since I last had someone stay over.After Sebastian's ordeal with his ex, we had sort of grown apart. I couldn't stop telling him "I told you so" and he had gotten sick of it.Well, I did tell him to be careful of the girls he dated. One time, we got into a heated argument and ever since, we never stayed over at each other's houses.But thanks to Olivia, we've grown our brotherhood once again. She was like an angel of light, gradually illuminating the dark parts of my life. Unfortunately, my mother had become the darkness in my life this time.Hopefully once the contract was over, she wouldn't bother me so much anymore.Once the contract exp

    OliviaI jumped in fright when the door came down, dust rising in the air.I had to close my eyes for a second and when I opened them again, I saw Asher standing right before me."Asher?" I tried to get to him but the ropes that tightened around my skin reminded me that I couldn't.He noticed this and rushed to me."Olivia? Oh my goodness! What happened? Where is she?" He asked multiple questions as he freed me.I answered none, I had no time to.Once I was completely free, I tried to run in the direction I had seen her go after she said what she was going to do to the twins and I."Where are you going?" Asher dragged me back even before I could make a move.I tried to wriggle out of his grip but I couldn't."She has the kids Asher. She has Kian and Kianna!" I didn't realize that there were tears in my eyes until they began rolling down my face.I had never been this scared of anything before.The image of Rita's malicious laughter that continued popping up in my head reminded me of t

    AsherSebastian arrived on time while I alerted the police.Mr Anderson seemed to be troubled by their presence but I was too worried about Olivia's absence that nothing else seemed to matter to me.According to them, they were close to finding her but I knew they were only saying that to make her family and I feel better.They couldn't track her phone, it was like it had been thrown into water.Whoever had called earlier, didn't call anymore which made me more nervous.Usually, when abductors want something, they keep calling and threatening the victim's family until they get what they want in exchange of letting the victim go.But it wasn't the same in this case.The abductor wasn't making any call which made me feel like he might have all of what he wanted already buy only called the other time to know that she had what I loved.I couldn't help but fear that she might try to harm Olivia and the twins.If she made any attempt to, I would make sure to punish her myself before handing

    Olivia"Rita?" I gasped, staring at her."H…..h…No, this isn't real!" I tried to assure myself but failed miserably.Now that I listened carefully, Janette sounded just like Rita.Little wonder she felt oddly familiar and I felt strange around her.She was the person I had been looking for, for so long!"I had plastic surgeries done after the incident of the video. I thought that I could win Asher's heart if I came around when you were no longer in his life but that wouldn't work too. Even with you gone, no other girl was able to take your place in his heart. Despite how much he despised you for what he thought you had done to him, he still loved you. It was inexplicable but undeniable, Asher still loved you, deeply." She explained, moving away from the bed."So you never wanted me with Asher all these while? Best friends are always happy for each other's happiness and we were supposed to be best friends, Rita." I felt mad and hurt.I had trusted her so much as more than a friend.Rit

    OliviaI felt a sharp pain at the back of my head and my eyes fluttered open instantly.I closed it back afterward, like the pain would magically go away afterward.And surprisingly, it did.I tried to get up only for me to realize that I couldn't.I struggled but I couldn't even get my hands away from my back.I struggled over and over but the more I struggled, the harder it became.I couldn't take my hands away from my back simply because I couldn't but because I had been tied up.How the hell did I end up like this?!The last thing I remembered was getting prepared for my date with Asher.I was supposed to be on my way to New York City if the driver hadn't switched lanes and……That was it!When I tried to argue with him, he locked the car doors and sprayed something in the car.I passed out afterward.Whatever he had sprayed in the car must have been the reason I passed out as I couldn't remember anything after that.I looked around wherever I was but I couldn't see anything but da

    AsherSeveral minutes have passed after the time Olivia was supposed to meet up with me.I didn't want to call her because I needed her to take her time and do as she pleased.But her absence here was beginning to get uncomfortable until I was pushed to take out my phone.I placed it on my ear after dialing her number, waiting for to hear her voice from the other side of the phone but that never happened.I dialed her number over and over again but it just rang with her never answering the phone."This is not some joke, Olivia. Pick up your phone." I mumbled under my shaky breath."Would you like to place your order now sir?" The waitress walked up to me and asked for the umpteenth time.I had waved at her not to worry severally, because my date was on her way here and I didn't find it fair to place orders without her presence.I had somehow however, managed to attract the attention of the other customers around.This was a restaurant for couples only and I had over time, reassured th

    OliviaMy didn't speak of Asher until later that night.And fortunately, he gave his full support toward my relationship with Asher.At the hospital, he had shown his displeasure in my decision to stick to Asher but decided he could do nothing against it since it had been my decision.But last night, he had told me that he was ready to fully support me.I think seeing the way the kids acted around their father must have made mine consider his decision and support me."You're going to be late if you keep staring at the mirror like that, Lila." Gloria said, suddenly coming out of nowhere and startling me.I visited Asher and his family frequently after we got back from the hospital.So I got in touch with Gloria again.Asher wanted me to return to the company but so much had happened, too much actually, for me to wish to return to that place.So, I was just going to to set up my own business like Jeremy had suggested.Today, I and Asher were going on a date.I also refused to move in wi

    Asher"Oh….that…." She stuttered uncomfortably."It's fine if you're not ready to come over yet. I honestly do not wish to make you feel uncomfortable." I quickly said when I realized she hadn't meant what she said to Sebastian.It was unexpected that she had actually let me into Kian and Kianna's lives.I didn't want it to seem like I was taking advantage of her kind heart and making her do things she wasn't comfortable doing.She shifted on the chair and just looked outside the car at the house like she could see through it."I've not decided on that yet." She spoke up after a long moment of silence and I nodded."I understand. Whenever you're ready, you could just call me to come pick you and the kids." I responded and she nodded, smiling genuinely."I guess this is goodbye then." She got ready to leave the car."Wait….!" I called her back, pulling her in for a kiss.My lips were almost on hers when she withdrew."What are you doing?" She whispered, her breath fanning my face."Oh…

    OliviaAsher and the twins woke up shortly after I left the ward and Sebastian helped them get ready.I was right about my dad going back home to bring some clothes and food for the twins and I.And just as I had planned with Sebastian, I took the clothes and food he brought for me."Do you think Kianna and Kian would still want to come home with me?" My dad asked when I returned from the restroom where I changed."Why do you think they wouldn't want to? They've been so eager to see you." I responded, taking a seat beside him.Ever since Sebastian and Asher made it to the hospital last night, my dad's mood had completely changed.I could tell that he was worried.Initially, I thought it was only about Asher, regarding everything that had happened in the past.But now, it seemed he was bothered beyond that."It's just that, their dad's here now. I can't help but feel like they would forget about me so soon. Usually, they would want to be around me but since last night, they've just sti
