We all alight at the bus stop and Ajax, cream buns in hand runs over to Lisa,Bella's daughter and gives her a hug, he halves his buns immediately handing one to her. ‘That’s my son', I think pride spreading through me at the interaction. I had gotten it for him when he kept complaining of hunger on our way to the restaurant. I hug Bella too and she glances at Adam at my back giving me a wink. Rolling my eyes, I introduce them while Ajax was already walking to the restaurant with Lisa in tow. ‘So you’re the guy that insulted my friend, huh' Bella skewers him with a cold look and I giggle in the background, ‘Um, huh, wh…’, Adam stammers and Bella burst out laughing. She claps his back, hitting him hard and spurring him into a cough ‘it’s all good, you apologised, I also happen to know that you are the only one that supports her in that large place of work’ Adam stops coughing and sighs in relief his face becoming composed. ‘But such insults will no longer be tolerated, I was on t

The new week met me excited about trying my newly acquired talents on Simon, I walked into my floor with a radiant smile on my face, quite early to be exact. It was the first time I got up before Ajax during the week. Normally, either Ajax or my alarm clock was responsible for waking me up and the way they did was astonishingly similar. With a loud shriek. This time I woke Ajax the same way, about 30 minutes earlier and he was none to happy about that. I itched to battle, granite face for granite face with Simon, ‘Oh, the look on his face, I can't wait to see it’, I giggled out loud and look around the hall to make sure no one was looking at me strangely. Thankfully they were not, everyone was currently preoccupied with settling in for the morning, plus the hall was scantier than usual. The fact that the hall was bare of Miss Debra was another source of excitement. The absence of the condescending looks she always gave me when I rushed in one or two minutes late was a welcome

‘So how did it go', Adam asks immediately I take my seat next to him. ‘I would call it…’, I breath in deeply giving a dramatic pause. ‘A tremendous victory’, I end with a laugh and a little performers bow to the side. He burst out laughing to the annoyance of the coworkers around us, one throws a glare my way and I stare her down, She averts her eyes after a while glare shifting to a look o discomfort, ‘Ha, even the great Simon Valero had a hard time in a staring match against me so who are you?’ I laugh at her flustered look. ‘You see what I did there right’, I turn to Adam and point at the unfortunate coworker with my chin. Adam nods, ‘even Si., Mr. Valero could not bear staring me down talk less of her', Adam laughs again. ‘I guess Bella's lessons paid off' In his excitement Adam did not notice my almost use of Simon’s name and I hoped it stayed that way. We both turn back to work the rest of the day passing by uneventful. While I went to pick Ajax during lunc

‘Coast is clear', I glanced around squinting, my face glued to the clear glass window of the white and black taxi. The glass fogged up from my breath, Adam's raucous laughter distracting me from face identifying everyone on the street. ‘You know you’re beginning to look crazy right’, he wheezes in between bouts of laughter. I look between Adam’s laughing face and the drivers irritable one. Through the rearview mirror, I saw the taxi driver’s brow furry in a frown and his nostrils constrict and dilate with impatience. He opens his mouth to speak, tired of me wasting time. ‘Okay we can leave now', I pull open the door and hurry out Adam on my heels. Adam continues laughing to the annoyance of startled school children walking by. ‘Stop it, you’re being embarrassing’, I hit him to stop his annoying laughter. He only increases it, doubling over and clutching his stomach. ‘Fine! I’m leaving’, I purse my lips in annoyance and turn to go. ‘Wait, wait, okay I’ll stop', he hurries afte

Chapter 30 Empty street stares at me as I round the bend, the street was only dotted with the occasional school child. ‘Whew, thank goodness', I sigh in relief. I walk towards a waiting Ajax, ‘he's not there'. ‘But, he..’, ‘He's not there Ajax, I’ve checked’, I grab and pull a pouting Ajax. ‘Imagine, seeing Adam here, it would be hard to explain what he was doing here without it pointing to something bad', I think while transferring Ajax. ‘I don’t think I would be able to take it if he had ulterior motives for befriending me', relief courses through me again and again. Checking my watch as I walk back into my department floor, I see that I’m 3 minutes late. I hoped no one took notice as i turn back to my computer, ‘I wouldn’t want Simon to start asking questions again'. My peace is continuously disturbed by an annoying gaze and I remember why I hurried out to pick up Ajax before. ‘Psst’, I nudge Adam. ‘Do you mind dealing with that', I point at Miss Janet that was stating

The TV remote could have cracked from how hard I clutched it. Immediately I got the call from Adam, the alarm in his voice spurred me out of be faster than I could blink.I pressed down on the red button waiting for the TV to turn on, it took a while blinking to life after a few seconds of me holding my breath.It’s probably due to the fact that it had not been used for a long time but that thought took the back seat in my mind as I flipped through the channels away from cartoons and animation.Clutching the remote like it was my lifeline, my mind thinks back to the different times when a single news was enough to get me to uproot my life from one place and run to another.Just the news about one journalist or YouTuber getting wind about the whereabouts of Simon's ex- wife was enough to get me packing.It always ended up with them finding about my street, my exact house number, the places I worked but I would have been long gone by then.A few weeks of staying in hiding in whatever n

‘It will be best if Miss Tina goes', my eyes turn to the person who utters those words and I fix the person with a burning stare. Although I was sure everyone was thinking that way but the person was really unfortunate to actually voice it out. Annoyance and anger burn in me hardening my gaze, Taking a step back from my piercing gaze, said person averts his eyes. I turn my eyes back to the rest of the crowd who silently agreed with his statement. Betrayal fills me and I’m close to flaring up at them. ‘Why do I even feel betrayed', this question crosses my mind as I look at their pitiful looks and averted eyes. ‘Not that they actually cared about me', I remember the same coworkers who said unbelievable things about me and spared no time in throwing me under the bus. My anger leaves, and I’m left feeling deflated. Resignation dawns on me as I discover that there’s was no way out of this. They had not said anything yet but the looks on their faces solidifies the fact that they wo

The crack of something hitting the door echoes in my ears, whatever it was smashed to the ground and a annoying thought strays into my mind.‘Would I have been the unfortunate door? getting hit in the head just because if his anger had I not scrambled from his sight as fast as possible',Relief sagging my shoulders, I rest on the said door and exhale a breathe I didn’t know I was holding in.‘To think I was eager to see him show weakness, emotion or anything to show he was not an actual block of ice and cold stares', I drag in a breath again,The look on his face was murderous, fury rolled off him in waves and the few seconds I spent in his presence was enough for me to see the hard set of his jaw and hear the repetitive sound of his teeth grind.To put it simply, his weakness wasn’t pretty, and apart from cold looks and icy stares the only other emotion he showed was anger, in various degrees.Thinking about it, I could count on my fingers the number of times I had seen him smile, T

The Arrogant Billionaire's Redemption Pondering
My eyes flutter open, looking around the dimly lit room,In our passion induced haze, we didn’t even turn on the lights,The only source of light was the one streaming across the dark blinds whenever they fluttered open.Over the past hours Simon and I had alternated between love making and drifting off to sleep when spent,My back side was pressed flush against him as he slept, his hand across my waist and his soft breaths against the back of my neck,We were both very naked under white cotton covers and my body still tingled from the past hours of passion my skin clammy against his heated own.My eyes flick about the room noticing the absence of furniture here also, the only thing in the large room was the bed and another cloth covered furniture.From the size of the bed, it would be Simon's room and my eyes rake across the dark walls and white tiled floor,I look up and see there's also a chandelier but not as magnificent in size and beauty, The dull lightening makes it difficult

At first he stills, stuck in the moment of torture then the next second he hand wraps around my waist like a vice fitting my body against his like a glove,My head tilts further as he kisses me with ferocity,His lips are soft as he drags mine to his mouth, sucking on it like someone starved,Taking his upper lips into my mouth, I suck with equal passion, I work my tongue into his mouth and when he sucks on it delicious tingles spread down to the base of my spine, He plunges his into mine, and all the heat in my body pulls to my stomach, I drag my hands across the broad and tensed muscles in his back, anchoring myself to himHis tongue teases, brushing then sliding against mine and my back arches, my chest pressing against his,Hands sliding across my back, his fingers come to rest against the soft skin of my waist, playing against the hem of my dress shirt,My skin prickles at the point where his fingers brushes bare skin where my shirt had ridded up and heat pulls between my legs

My eyes slip close as he instructed and I understand the reason seconds after when a blinding light suddenly filled up the room.I wait for my eyes to adjust before sliding them open, still very much aware of Simon breathing against the shell of my ear,My mouth drops open in awe as I look up at the source if light A massive chandelier, hanged from the center of the high ceiling, magnificent in its size,It was made up from a gold branch and crystal clear flowers and hanging from the large branch of gold were numerous crystal flowers in bloom connected to the branch by thin twigs the same enchanting gold color,The whole chandelier was a large inverted blooming flower, containing tiny flower blooms connected to each other by crystal strands, In each flower bed rested miniature bulbs of pure white light, intricately connected beads of crystal hanging from each flower petal, spilling light- gold and silver in hue across the large living room.And my mouth stayed open, even the spine t

Like a puppet on strings I get up and follow him, pulled by the alluring magnet that was his pleading voice, only grabbing my phone in my hands at the last moment.‘Where are we going', I only ask this question when we exit Trove’s building, in the parking lot,Concern bleeding into me when he beats me to the drivers side,‘I’ll drive', he says as his only reply‘Where are we going', I ask again when he opens the door and slides in, motioning for me to get in.Huffing at his elusiveness, I turn to the front passenger seat and slide in.He pulls out of the parking lot, eyes unwaveringly focused on the road.‘You’ve not answered my question’, I say, crossing my hands across my chest, not minding the smirk he shot at me before turning back to the road.‘I should have known something was wrong when you gave me that puppy eyed look', I glare at him, the words rolling out of my mouth, unexpected even to me,A surprised laugh burst from his mouth, and he stares at me, mirth in his eyes for
The Arrogant Billionaire's Redemption Aftermath
Explaining to Ajax the next morning was harder than I expected,‘You were so late yesterday', we were preparing for the day, Ajax for school and me for work,My head felt like it was splitting in halves, as I was trying to give an explanation while dealing with a hangover.‘I’m not going anywhere until you tell me what happened’, Ajax was staring at me, hands akimbo, a pout on his lips, refusing to put on his uniformI stand up from the dresser, walking to him and squatting to his eye level,‘I told you Ajax, I got held up at work, I was so busy, I forgot about the time', I look up at a pouty face, trying to get through to him.‘Liar!', he turns away from me, going to rest against the wall, hands folded.The sound, shrill to my ears sends an arrow straight to my head, compounding the headache I was currently dealing with,A tired exhale escapes my lips and I get up and walk towards him again.‘Adam said you were not at work, he said he looked all over for you and you were not there',

‘Taxi's here', I jump up at Simon's words phone in hand, heading for the door,I hear hurried movements towards me and I turn to face Simon, impatient roiling through me,‘What is it', my eyebrows pinch together, a frown on my face.In his hands is a face cap and he places it on my head,Also placing a mask on my face, he slides the hands over my ears, fingers lingering, brushing back hair strands and tucking them behind my ear,‘One can’t be too careful', my frown deepens as I turn away from eyes that latched unto mine with worry, words tempting me to stay.I pull the door open, hurrying out, towards the elevator.As I enter, Simon slides in beside me,‘Don’t follow….’, I start to say but he waves his phone in front of my face,‘I called the taxi remember’, I bite my lips to keep from replying him, folding my arms across my chest with a huff as the door slides close,‘Call me when you get home', Simon pays for the ride as I slide into the taxi and I shut the door against his voice, e
