Zara The sound of my alarm clock blared through the room, I let out a frustrated groan as I reached for my cell phone, I checked on the time and it was exactly 3 am. Since Ezra had made it clear to me that I’d have to be the one to do all the household chores, I have to be up early In other to get it down with. I got down from my bed and ambulated into the bathroom, I took a very warm bath and then got out to put on a simple gown. Yesterday Xavier had called in another to inform me about a deal he had gotten, I was so scared when Ezra walked in on me when I was speaking to him. But it turned out he brought me an ointment for my twisted ankle, about my ankle, it’s all healed now and I feel better, thanks to the ointment. After getting out of the bathroom, I got dressed in a gown, it was actually not very long but I still wore it anyways, it stopped at my thighs and I was certain everyone was still asleep by now. I ambulated out of my room and headed straight to the laundry room, I go
ZaraOnce I got into the office building, I felt a wave of peace wash over me. I was dressed in a trouser and a shirt, I looked like a typical teenager because those were the type of clothes Lizzo parked for me. I left the house unnoticed by Ezra and Norah because they always leave the house by 7 am every morning. I was glad I leave by 9 am, that way, they’ll never see the car that comes to pick me up. Because all the cars were expensive.Once I got into Xavier’s office with his coffee which I had already grabbed from the coffee machine, I saw him sitting on the desk with a pen in his mouth. He raised his head to stare at me, his hair was all ruffled and he looked extremely handsome as he stared at me, he looked extremely tired and I couldn’t help but chuckle.“Good morning, Boss.” I teased, and he rolled his eyes.“We have a meeting to attend today, why are you dressed like a child?” He asked rudely, I felt ashamed of myself immediately. “This is the only type of clothing I own,” I
Zara Well, I and Maya had arrived at the office successfully and Xavier was pleased with the dress she had gotten me, he complimented it and since he had little time for him to praise how pretty I looked, we instantly left for the president’s mansion which we were present before. I stared at the mansion in awe, it was extremely beautiful and it reminded me so much of Ezra’s mansion back home. “Let’s get going, Zara” I heard Xavier say to me, my dress was a bit ruffled so I immediately straightened it and hopped out of the car. The heels were just fine as I stood on the tarred floor of the mansion, I held a jotter in my armand a pen neatly sitting on my chest, clutching to my dress. I turned to Xavier and he was taking deep breaths, he looked at me and smiled nervously.“Why do you look so nervous?” I whispered to him, he was standing next to me. “Because this deal is very important to me, it can make and break me.” He said he was behaving as though we were having a professional di
Ezra Standing at the mall, I let out a frustrated yawn. I was here with Norah to get new clothes, and she was going on and on about how her other clothes were now outdated and she needed a change of wardrobe, being a loving boyfriend, I decided to accompany her shopping, but I wasn’t comfortable being in the women segment of the clothing section in the mall, so I stood outside and gazed around the mall with my phone to my ears, I was speaking to my assistant who was explaining to me what the meeting I was going to have with the president was all about, Norah had gotten me completely deviated from work that I had forgotten what the meeting entailed, though I did know it was concerning a land where I’ll be establishing my new hotel if I win the deal against Xavier of course, the other companies were losers, and Xavier was the competition. “Send me all the required documents via email and make sure they are all printed out neatly, got that?” I said to my assistant, she was quick to res
ZaraI had arrived home a while ago, luckily for me, there was no one around, except for Luciano, and when he had seen me dressed in my gown, he complimented me and even told me he didn’t recognize me, of course, it felt good to hear that from him, but at the moment, I wasn’t happy, because Ezra is throwing a party to celebrate his win and he had asked Luciano to inform me. Luciano also told me that Xavier would be in attendance and my heart had done a flip at that news.Presently, the house was being decorated, and Ezra and Norah were getting ready for the party which will begin by 10 pm today, Luciano had told me he had things to do, so he won’t be attending the party. And I was going to work for the party, I’m to serve drinks and make sure everyone is satisfied before they leave. I was seated on my bed when I heard a knock on the door, I wanted to get up to get it, but the person barged in and it was no other than the witch, Norah. “What do you want?” I said to her. “For a maid,
Ezra I stared at Kade as he held onto my mate's arm, he looked very furious and I couldn’t help but feel angry staring at the way he held her so delicately. “Let go of her, Kade, are you crazy?” I said to him, he turned to look at me with extreme rage in his eyes, and he immediately leaped towards me but I was quick to hold his hand in the air. “Don’t you dare try that, you leach!” I snarled at him, my Lycan was mad at the fact that a vampire just touched him. If it weren’t for the fact that he was the president’s stepson, I wouldn’t have invited his dirty ass to my party. “You watched that bitch hit her, what kind of a man are you?” Kade said, he looked very mad at me.“What is your business with her? Why are you defending her?” I yelled at him. My mate was looking very red in the face, her eyes looks puffy. “Because she’s my mate,” He said and immediately walked towards him, I grabbed my mate's arm and she looked very terrified. “Is he your mate? Tell me the truth, woman.” I ye
Zara I was very glad that Ezra took me off maid duty, I was glad that I will have the time to sleep and also get ready for work. Yesterday was one of the worst days of my life, I was very scared when Kade grabbed my arm, I thought he was going to puff me out of there and mark me and make me his. I was happy that Ezra had taken me away from him, Kade scares me a lot and I can’t imagine my life with him, he is crazy. Today, I woke up to meet 20 missed calls from Xavier, I didn’t pick the call up, I was overwhelmed and could not speak. I was already dressed in brown cargo pants and a plain white till-the-neck top, I actually looked very okay, so I immediately headed out of my room and straight out of the mansion, the car was already parked outside, and as usual, I hopped in after greeting the driver, it was the one from yesterday and he only smiled when I greeted him. I brought my phone out of my cargo pants pocket and saw texts from Lizzo, after I had told her all that had happened o
ZARAStanding in the parking lot, Xavier opened the door to his blue Mercedes, I took in a deep breath and sat inside, he immediately turned around and sat in as well. He didn’t waste any time in igniting the car and driving into the busy city of New York, I turned to stare at him for a second, and our eyes locked for a moment, I immediately looked away and brought my phone out of my pocket, I was feeling sleepy and I didn’t know what to say at the moment. He kept on driving and then suddenly paused in the middle of nowhere, he turned to me calmly and sat and took a deep breath, I knew I was in for a talk.“Why did you stop here? It looks dangerous.” I said, he rolled his eyes. “I’m the Rouge Lord, I’m dangerous!” He said, I shook my head at him and he chuckled. “Why do you let them treat you that way?” He asked, I decided to pretend as though I didn’t know what he was saying. “Who?” I asked, he shook his head.“Don’t play dumb with me, Zara!” He said firmly, my heart skipped a bea
