Henry hurriedly took off his jacket and dumped it beside Eve on the bed. Before he could blink, she was tearing off the buttons on his white cotton shirt. He looked into her eyes. Eve was burning with desire for him. Henry wanted her as much as she desired him. He craved for her so badly from the moment he cast his gaze on her when she walked out of that office to the reception before they left for the charity art event. Every glance he fixed on her at that event turned him on. He had been fighting the urge to resist her for so long but now, he just wanted to fuck the hell out of her.Eve finally took off his shirt and ran her fingers on his bare chest. She was kneeling on the bed, facing him. He was kneeling too. He squeezed her left breast and she gasped in pleasure. She immersed him in a passionate hug and tugged her hands into his bare skin.Henry broke off their embrace and dipped his hand into her thighs. He pulled off her black thong. He was about to pull his hand out of her t
"We have to stop this madness Henry," she added. Henry agreed with a nod."I'm very sorry. I led you on," he said Even though he had doubts whether he actually led her on. She was the one that pulled him to the bed when he wanted to leave. She was the one who tore the buttons off his shirt and pulled out the belt around his trousers. "I can't go on living like this." Eve continued. Tears were still rolling down her cheeks. "You are married." she reminded him.Henry turned away and swallowed some air."I'm tired of this pointless sex affair." she spat.Did she just say sex affair? Henry wondered. He hated the way those tears kept rolling down her cheeks. He wanted to pull her to his chest and stroke her till she stopped crying."I'm sorry," Henry said. His voice rang with empathy.Eve resolved to wipe her tears. "I want us to end this once and for all. I don't want to be a home-wrecker and I will never be comfortable being a sidepiece.Henry sighed and moved closer to her. He held her
Eve loitered around Henry's door for about two minutes before finally knocking on the office door. Stacy kept staring at her from her spot in astonishment."Come in," Henry responded from the inside.Eve heaved a deep sigh and gave the door a slight push. She walked into the office and stood a few meters away from Henry's desk."Good morning sir," she mumbled and fixed her gaze on the floor.Henry's blue jacket was wrapped around his chair. He shut the file before him and tossed it to the side. He cleared his throat loudly. Eve lifted her head and caught his disappearing smile."You sent for me sir," she told him.Henry agreed with a repeated nod and rolled his eyes all over her. Eve wondered why his eyes were lagging around her chest. In her quest to redeem herself from the sexual affair, she had planned on working on the outfits she'll be wearing to work henceforth. She was dressed in a green maxi gown that morning.Henry pulled out a little brown envelope from one of his desk cabin
Eve crossed her legs. "You think I'm scared of going to a club? Do I have to remind you where you and I met?" Henry turned away. Eve went on. "I don't need you to look out for me. The thing is I don't feel like going to a club tonight."Henry sighed and placed both his hands on his waist. "I need to sign that deal Eve. This company needs Leonard. I don't know why the man wants you there but I'll appreciate it if you agree to the offer." He explained. "For the company's sake," he added."Fine."Henry smiled halfway. That was quick he thought. "So you'll be there right? 8 Pm sharp.""Noted," Eve replied with a nod."So I'll drop by at your house let's say at 7 30 to pick you up.""No." Eve countered. "Where are we meeting the man?""His bar. Leo BARRYS." Henry replied."I know that spot. I'll be there." Eve said."Good. Don't forget. 8 pm sharp so we have to be there on time. We can't keep Leonard waiting. We must....""It's okay boss. Chill. I know what to do." Ever said and lifted he
"What the hell is going on here?" asked a confused Henry. His gaze fell on Leonard who was still on the floor on his butt.Leonard abruptly stood up and brushed off the back of his black trousers with his hands.Eve was by the corner, her head lowered with a tightened jaw. She was burning with rage. She wasn't going to sit tight and allow that bastard to tuck his hand into her thighs."You didn't tell me the lady you brought was a whore." Leonard accused. He smirked. "Eve or whatever you call her is nothing but a slut."Eve lifted her head and saw Leonard pointing a finger at her. Her eyes widened in shock. What was Leonard driving at and did he just call her a whore?"A whore?" Henry asked with a quirked brow. Why would Leonard suddenly call Eve a whore? he wondered."Not just a whore but an abuser. Didn't you see the way she assaulted me? She pushed me. She just assaulted me Henry" Leonard claimed and turned to look at the spot he has earlier fallen on.Eve gasped. "Assault you? Are
Leonard gave Eve a stern look that scared her to death. If Henry wasn't there, he would have probably smashed her head against the wall she thought.Leonard began striding toward Eve. She stood her ground and faced him, her chin up. "You are lying. Tell your boss that you are lying," he said in a tone that depicts command.Henry was pacing back and forth, trying to wrap his head around the commotion.Eve smiled and Leo couldn't hide his shocking expression. If he was expecting her to chicken out because of his overshadowing presence then he has no idea who he is dealing with. She is Eve Bloom and will take shit from no one.Eve held up his stare. "I am not lying. You were the one who tried to take advantage of me." she maintained, staring directly into his eyes.She moved away from him and walked up to Henry. "I don't care what you think but this man is cheap and has no ounce of morality. Believe me or not, he was the one who tried to force himself on me. The only way I could resist w
Henry led Eve out of the busy club. He pulled his car from the parking lot and opened the front door for her to hop in. Eve jumped inside the car. Henry mounted the driver's seat and heaved a deep sigh. He turned to Eve who was sitting beside him, trying to wrap the seat belt around her."I'm so sorry for all that happened back there."Eve sighed and began to fondle the glossy stones on her purse. Her head was lowered. "It's okay."Henry put on his seat belt and started the car. Eve reclined in the chair, her gaze was cast on the path ahead of them.Henry gave his nose a little scratch and went on apologising. "When Leonard asked me to invite you, I had my doubts but I felt that since he insisted and since I was going to be there then there was nothing to worry about. I never knew he could pull such an act. I..." he shook his head and gave the speedometer a slight slap with his left hand.He turned to look at Eve and saw her staring through the window. "I'm very sorry Eve," he mumbled
Henry plunged the empty containers inside the plastic bag and threw it at the back seat. Eve gave her forehead a little scratch and thought about the way she had disposed of her container."You don't have to thank me, Eve. I just did the right thing." Henry responded. He pulled out more tissues from the cabinet and passed some to her.She took them and began cleaning her hands. "That meant so much to me. I didn't know what I would have done if you didn't side with me."Henry gave her a loving blink. "I was just doing the right thing." He started the car and they were soon hitting the road."Aren't you worried that Leonard is going to pull out of the partnership?" Eve pointed out."Well, the truth is we are both out. I don't see him being my client anymore." Henry replied."Losing a client like Leonard Barry means losing a lot of cash," Eve said and palmed her forehead with her left hand. "I'm so sorry, it's all my fault.""Oh come on Eve. You don't have to be sorry. It's not your fau
