“Yeah. I started working here just after high school, it belonged to my older brother-” she waved her hands in the air referring to the bistro. “I learnt from him and now I manage it, during my first day I met with your mum, she was the only person on this floor and she was sitting right were you are.” she nudged

“She experienced my first meltdown here in the bistro, I got into one of my teenage fits with my older brother and she noticed it all. I was supposed to serve her and I was being a total bitch about it. In the end Emilia invited me to her table instead. I was pretty annoyed yet her smile made me sit with her. She ended up buying food for the both of us and it made me feel better.

    Chapter 61Percy povMy mind was unsettled by the way Eden sounded on the phone, even with the assurance from her mouth I can’t seem but to doubt every single thing she told me. I tapped on keyboard of the tablet in front of me while listening to my assistant give me the briefing. It was ten minutes until the next meeting, and I was torn between going to find her or remaining and believing her words.“Mr. Alexandro?” I snapped my head at my secretary who stared at me with a worried expression. “Uh-uhm I don’t think you heard me but-““Get Audrey.” I said ignoring her words. She stared as if she hadn’t heard me. “Sir she’s ou-“ “You know what never mind, excuse me. Start preparing for the meeting I’ll be there when I’m done.” She nodded and rushed out. I picked up my phone and dialed up Audrey’s number, while I contemplated if it was a good idea Audrey picked up. “To what do I owe this call,- oh wait-“ she continued. “You want me to do something for you concerning Eden, shoot down

    Chapter 62Eden povI didn’t understand why he was breathing so hard when I came out or why he hugged me, or even why he offered to sleep in my room today. I didn’t understand the emotions that swarmed in his eyes when he came back and kissed me, why he was holding me like I was going to disappear if he lets me go. When he pulled away for air and my eyes opened I could see the dilation in his eyes. “Percy-“ I muttered but he was already kissing me and I didn’t mind. His fingers squeezed my hips and my thighs brushed against his sweats covered legs, I felt more of his hardness against me as he settled deeper in between my legs. His other hand grazed up in my shirt, my skin burned under his touch and my body reacted to the trail he left.My back arched into his hold and my breath hitched as his fingers flicked over ny under boob making nipples harden in want.His lips slowly lift away from my lips and kissed my jaw and chin, then he moved down to the dip in my neck and then my collar

He introduced himself to me, that guy! That was Eden ex. The douche that couldn’t hold back his temper.“You dated Kevin?”“You know Kevin?” We asked each other simultaneously, she was away from my chest and leaning back on her knees. Several pieces of hair had fallen in her face and her shirt was now rumpled.“You go first, how did you know or even meet Kevin?” Her voice danced in uncertainty. Why was she bothered about us two knowing each other?“I don’t really know him, I met him back at the charity ball.” Her eyes widened and she chewed on her buttom lips, she was anxious and I didn’t like it. “He seemed to know who I was even though I had never met him before and then he introduced himself and family, The Greene’s are very much popular.” I added sitting up to get a better view.

He kissed my shoulders slowly while he held me in his arms. “What do you want to do?” He asked me brushing the hair on my head. I glanced up at him and stared in his eyes. “What I want to do?” I repeated. “I have no idea, I mean I’m not working and It’s pouring dogs and cat so it’s a no no for going outside, I swear I have no idea.”“We’ve not had breakfast yet, I could make you something and we could watch something afterwards, what do you say?” He offered, it was better than any other thing I could think of. “We could cook something up together.” I said pushing myself off him, he remained back in bed watching me pad around naked.“Nah, it’s fine. I’m offering to make you a meal, all you need to do is shower and get ready. His eyes raked through my body and remained on my lower body, my hips to be precise. “That

The man sitting opposite me handed me the envelope which I inspected as I brought out the contents. Pictures. Just like I wanted. I stared at the images in front of me, there she was the girl who belonged to me in a fine red dress in the arms of Percy Alexandro. Then another picture was of the two of them in a pastry shop being cozy while eating donuts, the other photos had her smiling with Percy. She was happy. Way too happy.

    Chapter 66Eden POVIt’s been a two weeks since my encounter with Kevin, two weeks since he’s made any move towards me, two weeks since Percy started acting weird, not weird weird, but weird that we don’t spend as much time together. He had been spending more time in the office and returned late, too late that I wouldn’t catch him up.“Eden.”“Eden.” I snapped back to reality blinking repeatedly at Cole who had his eyes on me. “Yeah, sorry. Keep on going.” I said to him leaning back to the chair. “There isn’t a ‘keep on going’ if you don’t tell me where your mind is. You’ve been zoning out for a while and I’m telling you as a work colleague and not your manager that you need to get your shit together.” He dropped the paper in his hands down on the desk and clutched his palms together. “I'm fine. I just got distracted.” I answered smacking my red coated lips together. “So what where you saying?” “Did something happen between you and Percy?” he asked casting me a knowing glance. “

    Chapter 67Eden pov“Thank you Alex.” I smiled at Alex who dropped the wine glass in our table, there was no one at the top floor of the bistro as Magdalene had put it out of order for our Dinner this night. Equally dressed up in a golden slip on gown, she wasn’t quite surprised to see Cole.“You must be Cole Thatcher, the manager.” She greeted when we first entered, she extended her hand to him and he accepted it with a small kiss to the back of her palms. Magdalene blushed and I watched the two exchange deep glances that made me happy and sad at the same time. It reminded me of Percy, but I didn’t want to think about him. Not now. Now at our table, i examined the wine with a swirl.“You look stunning in that dress Eden, very very stunning.” Alex complimented me with a boyish smile when he returned with the tray of food. “Thank You Alex.”“Yeah but you know what else is stunning?

Was he accusing Cole?“Right, he didn't. He just came out for some fresh air.” Percy replied, his voice dipped in heavy sarcasm. “Actually, that's why I'm here.” Cole said, either he didn't read the room or he really didn't care about what Percy was thinking. “You know what i’ll just leave you two to talk?” He said and turned to me, he gave me a small warn smile and a gentle squeeze on my arms. He ignored the glare Percy gave him and walked past him inside the bistro. I sighed and turned away from Percy. “What in the world was that?” he asked from behind me. “It was nothing-”“It sure didn't look like nothing, yo

My eyes landed on the man sleeping in my bed, his bare chest was on display for me to see and his hands crossed over his face, blocking his eyes. My eyes trailed further down to where the Duvet stopped which was around his hips. He moved and my gaze reached up his face. “Audrey? Are you there?” Eden said through the phone and I blinked. “Yeah, i am.” I answered lowly while rubbing my neck, my fingers crossed one of the bruise on my neck. It was a love mark from Zach from last night. “So what do you say?” she asked and i moved closer to Zach who was still asleep, the bed dipped from under me as i sat on the bed. “You should go for it, i’m sure it would drive him crazy.” I giggled. I placed my hands on Zach chest and traced on the toned mucles of his chest. He stirred but doesn’t open his eyes. “Thanks Audrey- you’re a life saver.” She sighed in r

His lips held mine as the urgency to have me where he wanted. My hands fiddled with his jacket but i managed to peel if of his shoulders, his fingers around my waist detached as he helped me get rid of the material andd discard it to the side. His hands brushed against my hips and down to my thighs where he squeezed on the skin through the material of my dress. A soft moan escaped my lips and my eyes closed shut at the pleasure that caused through from his lips.
