She said, almost dragging me to the next clothes line.The price tag on these ones were simply outrageous for just luxurious dresses. “Take this, this…..we will take this one,...”she kept on saying, and picking them.“Ma'am, I think I am okay with this!” I said, getting alarmed at the bulk of clothes in the Manager's arm.

She wanted to resist at first probably out of fear for Mrs Ave, but then allowed me to. “Thank you ma'am!” I said, avoiding tearing up and then ruining my makeover with suppressed emotions. “You are welcome!” “Is she done? Oh my goodness! She is hot!" Mrs Maribel said on seeing me. "Of course she is hot! A Blackwood can't be looking unkempt!” Mrs Ave said, and I tried to remember where I had heard of the name Blackwood. it keeps resounding in my brain. “Of course I know about that Merida, you don't need to remind me about your fashion sense!” She said, and they both laughed out loud. “Alright, Maribel!

Boss, is definitely giving her the sack very soon!” Gabriela said and I turned to look at her, wondering what her problem is with me?”. “How long is it going to take for you to open the door and fucking come in?"

But…” Andrus wanted to say more when he was interrupted by her. “What do you mean by that?” She said her bright face suddenly turning into a frown, and I wonder why I just can't keep my mouth shut, sometimes. Well, it's too late to keep quiet now! After all I have a reputation to protect before them all. “You know what I meant by that! Why are the both of you here instead of being at the office?" I said pretending to be angry. "You ungrateful man! I knew you were going to change into your nasty behavior the moment you open your eyes” Her said glaring at me.

Well, I did lead him on with me peeking him on the cheeks days ago! But that was done out of excitement!.“What made him think he can do the same to me?. He must be out of his damned mind!” I said, while struggling to pull off my dress in anger."Men are just too predictable! Give a man a axe, and he will end up chopping down the entire wood!” I scoffed loudly still struggling with the dress. Suddenly I heard a ripping sound from the back, and I paused in disbelief.“Please, don't tell me my dress made that sound?" I questioned myself, quickly pulled it off my body, and turned from within, to see a large tear on the hem of the dress.“Urgh! It can't get more worse than this! First it was his crazy kiss, and now a ripped dress?” Tossing the dress into a laundry basket, I walked into the bathroom to freshen up.“Why did he do that? Does it m

    “Bro, I thought you have gone home?” Daniel said, looking surprised on seeing me back at the club. “Yeah, but changed my mind! Give me a drink, bro!” I said before snatching the bottle of champagne from his hand. He slowly raises his head up with his gaze fixed on me. His eyes, carefully searching my mind for clues to my restlessness tonight. “It's about her, right?” He said, still looking at me. “About who? What are you talking about, dude?” I said, already draining the third glass of champagne. “Calm down dude! I said, enough of the drinking, bro! What is wrong with you?” He said, snatching back the bottle and keeping it away from my reach. “What is wrong with you? Do I look like a wannabe drunkard to you?” I said with a icy glare and he swallowed hard. “I am sorry, man! But I really hoping this is not about that girl? I mean that stripper?” “Don't call her that!” “She is a stripper, dude! That is the fucking, bitter truth!” “I said, don't call her that!" I said more coldly

    “Is it that obvious on my face?" "Why won't he be scared of your cold Aura?" She said, after entering the car. "Why are you not scared of me, then?" I finally asked the question bothering me at the office. “Beyond your cold demeanor lays a kind hearted man! I know you are not heartless, Murphy!” She said softly, touching my chest. Staring into her bewitching sea blue eyes, my emotions went wild while carelesing the strains of her hair lurking out of place. Swallowing hard twice, I look at her naturally red lips, again. Suddenly, I kissed her. And i heard her gasps out in surprise, but that didn't stop me from kissing her soft lips. Those red lips have been driving me crazy ever since we arrived at the club. And I could still taste the sweetness of the juice in her saliva. Titling her head closer to mine, I deepen the kiss while her resistance, broke off. Returning the same gesture, I got full access to her lips, and God! She taste so sweet, so fucking sweet! I murmur inwardly, wh

Mouthing my deep appreciation to him, I breathe out, deeply relieved of my anxiety. “He did? And he is just telling me about you!” She said, smiling at him. “Come sit Milady!” Daniel gillies her to one of the couches. “You are dutch too!” She said, already sitting down. “A dutch from my maternal side, and a Spanish from my paternal side!” He replied before pouring juice into a glass cup for her.
