LIII: It isn't a relationship
Last Updated:
2021-08-25 11:27:07She turned and lifted her head to see Remi holding on to her iPhone 12 with her earphone hanging around her neck. She was wearing wrecked, faded-blue bum shorts and a grey sweater along with a pair of grey flip-flops. Since the pool was inbuilt, it regulated the temperature to be conducive and Remi wouldn’t feel cold in the little she wore.
She shook her head, then accompanied it with, “No, you’re not, Remi, I wasn’t really doing anything.”
Remi moved closer and sat down beside the pool as well, and her legs slowly dipped into it.
“I needed this,” she moaned in relief and her eyes briefly fluttered.
Jasmin couldn’t help staring at the young lady. “Ada said you all come here every Christmas.” she spoke, causing Remi’s eyes to open up and after she nodded, they closed again.
She was never good at small talks and as much as she could, she avoided it. But she wanted to talk to someone, anyone that was

The CEO's Contract With the thief LIV: I stopped being boring
The room was slightly dark and quiet when Jasmin stepped inside and shut the door. Her heart was pounding heavily against her chest and she was shivering in anticipation of what was going to happen. She knew what she did, and she knew Cainan was pissed, and she knew he was going to get back at her for it, but she didn’t know how or when. She had stayed an extra two hours at the pool because she had read somewhere that time helped people get control of their emotions and Cainan appeared to be annoyed when he left her at the pool earlier and so time was the best way to let him diffuse. She spotted him on the couch at the corner of the room beside the shelf and her footsteps slowed. His head was resting against the arm of the couch and his legs spread out in front, and Jasmin had to convince herself mentally that his position wasn’t a silent invitation to be straddled. “Mr Inferno,” she called out faintly. His eyes open

As Jasmin’s eyes opened, she realised Cainan was no longer beside her. Her heart shrunk a little, and she curled herself into a ball on the bed. She was a little heartbroken and disappointed, but she wasn’t expecting a lot. Last night happened because she begged for it, but what other choice did she have? He was going to leave her undone as punishment for calling him boring and she didn’t think she was ready for that; she knew she wasn’t ready for an unfulfilled night. Begging was the only way out, and that was what she resorted to. Flashback “Please, Cainan.” “Why are you begging me, Jasmin?” “Because I need you.” His brow furrowed. “You need me, you need this boring man?” he teased with a smirk appearing at the corner of his lips. He had her backed against the wall and he knew it. Her cheeks warmed, and she felt embarrassed at her shameless demand for him, but she could not stop anymore. She nodded vigorously.

Silence hovered around for the first few seconds that passed, and all they did was stare at each other. “Can I join you?” he broke the silence with his polite request, a small smile on his face as his green eyes stared at her. She couldn’t help her eyes as they wandered on his body, flickering around shamelessly and then down to his semi-hard cock, hanging out freely. When her eyes finally lifted, she found him closely staring at her and her cheeks heat in response and she tried looking away. “Like what you see?” he cocked an eyebrow at her and took a step forward, even without her permission. She smiled nervously and looked away, rubbing her hands over her body which the hot water was descending on. Her action wasn’t helping Cainan stay focus, but that was the point. “I always have. Where did you go?” she asked, picking the lemon flavoured bar soap from its holder hanging on the white-tiled wall and lathering he

Jasmin stepped out of the bedroom, tucking in the white long-sleeved shirt into the black trouser she was wearing. Cainan insisted that if she wanted to go out, it was best to wear a collared shirt in order to cover up the hickey and marks his mouth and teeth had left on her neck and shoulder. Her lips slightly swollen, but she hoped anyone else wouldn’t notice it. “Cainan finally let you out!” Lisa poked her head out of the kitchen door. Jasmin was a little taken aback by her words and also by her compliment. “I didn’t know you were waiting for me or I would have stepped out hours ago.” Cainan had asked her to stay in bed with him, but she needed to clear her head and his cuddles weren’t helping her do that. “Nah, it’s still a good time,” Lisa wiggle her brow at Jasmin mischievously, “Looking good.” her eyes scanned over her from head to toe.

Moments like these, she wished a divine intervention would take away their focus from her, but no such thing happened and their curious gaze remained on her. She giggled nervously as her mind wandered to the first day she ran into his office with the diamond necklace while being chased by the police. She remembered him calling out to her and asking her what she was looking for. And she remembered how intense his green gaze was even as they settled on hers and how, despite not knowing her, related to her with a slight difference. He didn’t judge her based on the state he found her, not with his words and certainly not his actions. He was a principled and hard man; it didn’t start today, and she remembered how he demanded she handed the diamond to him before telling her to go hide away. He saved her the first day they met and the last thing he deserved was her stealing from him, but that was what she ended up doing. That act brought

Cainan and Daniel took the Toyota Tacoma Pickup and headed to the Christmas tree shop. Cainan had never been on a Christmas tree shopping in Egypt before, so Daniel drove the car. It was a twenty minutes’ drive to the shop and most of the time they spent in silence. Daniel had a reason for shopping for a Christmas tree on the twenty-third of December. Donald and Daniel always shopped for their Christmas trees on the twenty-third and Daniel never understood why and so when he got the chance to go alone, he went on the twenty-fourth, ignoring Donald’s instructions to go a day before. He ended up spending over six hours waiting and then paying double the normal price just to get a tree home to the awaiting family. He had learnt his lesson ever since. Standing around in the store and there were over a dozen Christmas trees was a wide option to pick from. There was a high probability that there was going to be four times the number of cu

“He said six hundred Egyptian pounds.” Daniel’s voice drew him out of his thoughts. Cainan dragged his gaze over to Daniel, who was standing with a puzzled look, “Is that less or more?” He gave a mild shrug. “I wouldn’t know. I’ve never gotten that size before.” “Then why are you having that look on your face?” “Because you seem bothered and I know you’re going to say you’re fine, but I’m here if you need to talk. We are brothers, after all.” Cainan almost scoffed. If he wanted to talk to anyone about what or who was on his mind (Jasmin), certainly it would not be Daniel because the last time he checked, he wanted her as well. He gave him a half-smile. “I will remember, thanks, buddy. Have you paid then?” Cainan changed the subject with his brow rising. “Yes. They are helping to load the tree in the car trunk, but I got Christmas ornaments and decorations.” He stated, lifting the shopping bags in his hand

When Cainan got back from the store with Daniel, he wanted to pick up where he had left off with Jasmin, but she had other ideas, and she asked if he had ever spanked any of his previous sexual partners before. Cainan of course was new to the whole idea, once or twice he had heard Laré go on about how Rogue had a thing for whips, ropes and spanking and he never put much mind to it, but when Jasmin suggested it to him last night, he couldn’t say no. He obliged, and they had an intense make-out section, getting rid of almost all her clothes and when they pulled apart, their need for each other was already at an insane level. She then moved to get down on all fours before him and told him to hit her butt. Her request and hesitation took him aback. The last thing he wanted to do was hit her. That would cause her pain, which was not what he wanted, especially in her condition but it seemed the only one concern about that was him. “Go on, I want you

A few days later, Jasmin was holding onto a bunch of lily flowers and she wore a long silver gown that littered with every move she made. Lisa told her it was going to give her the best look two days ago, and she believed. Cainan was in a black tux and red bow tie and sat in his wheelchair, awaiting her arrival at the altar. He was taking Rogue’s advice and also grooming a beard and a few stubbles were on his face. Jasmin told Cainan she wanted to be married to him a few days ago at the hospital and despite being confined in bed, Cainan moved to plan for the wedding, which would be a small one with only family and friends. After they released him from the hospital, the doctor gave strict instructions that he made use of the wheelchair to help heal and restore him to his full strength before walking and so he had done in these past days while planning the wedding.

The CEO's Contract With the thief CXII: The road to forever
The stillness within and without was the first thing Cainan took notice of as he regained consciousness and soon after, his lashes lifted and he beheld a blurry shadow pacing around not so far away. What a very weird dream he had had, being chased around with Jasmin and then shot and stabbed. He made out the white painted walls, ceiling and blue curtains hanging on the window through his dimmed vision and his head did a mental recall of the event that might have led to this, but came up short. The clearer his vision became, the harder his head ached, and he shut his eyes as the pain in his head grew worse. “Shit!” he cussed and groaned loudly. How the hell did he end up here? “Cainan,” he heard Ada’s voice snapping him out of his thoughts, and a moment later she took his hand in hers. “Oh, thank goodness you’re finally awake.” She breathed in relief and took her seat

A store with dimmed lights was at the corner off the road and, as soon as Jasmin saw it, she raced there, hoping they would still be open.She barely took her first step when someone suddenly grabbed her hand.Her heartbeat raced, and she panicked, trying to wiggle away. “Jazz, Jazz, it’s me.”Her heartbeat decreased and relief watched over her at the voice of Cainan and she threw her arms around him before she thought of anything else.She pulled away, overwhelmed with happiness and surprise at the sight of him. “How did you find out?” her eyes narrowed.Relief and happiness filled his eyes at her sight. “I knew you loved me and the last thing you would do is hurt me intentionally. I knew there was more to it and though heartbroken, I had to wait around and make sure you were okay. Thank God I did.”“He knows about the baby,” she said, overcome with fear, &l
The CEO's Contract With the thief CX: When escape is not an option
Dennis dragged Jasmin out of the house and into her car before forcing her to drive them away from the house. They drove past a few security points and each time, Jasmin played it cool and smiled her way through each line of questioning they had for her. She obeyed Dennis and did nothing that would spook suspicion for the safety of her unborn child even though she couldn’t imagine going back to the nightmare of a life she once had, filled with fear, abuse, and pain. “Where are the rest of the team?” she asked, a little curious as they left the last checkpoint. Dennis did nothing without his team, which comprised three other wealth exchangers, and Jasmin sensed something was up with their absence. “Dead.” He flatly replied, his eyes on the road. “I lost them a few days ago, during a heist.” Her eyes dropped. “I’m sorry.” She mumbled quietly, but she was not surprised. The life they lived was a dangerous one, which was why she wanted to leav
The CEO's Contract With the thief CIX: When heartbreak lingers
"Stop!" she exclaimed in panic, holding her trembling hands up in surrender and her heart slammed away in her chest in fear. "I will do what you want, just don't hurt her." Her eyes blurred up and her lips quivered. She knew better than to call bluff on his threats. He halted and uncocked the gun before turning to meet her glassy, and now desperate, eyes. And what he saw pleased him. "That's my girl, so obedient." he cooed. "Your good heart never leads you astray. Now bring out your phone and call your lover boy. You need to make sure that your words are believable because Lisa isn't out of the woods yet." Afraid, angry and defeated, she pulled out her phone from her purse on the couch and dialled Cainan's number. After the third dial, with no answer from Cainan, she lowered the phone from her ear, mumbling. "He's not answering, usually he answers..." The words were barely out of her mouth when the doorbell went

Her heart hammered against her chest in fear and terror as she stood, unable to move in the first few minutes that passed.He was her past; he was also her nightmare and now he was her reality.Lisa lived in a very secure neighbourhood and breaking in rarely happened. Somehow, Dennis, an intruder, had found his way in and now sat on Lisa's adjustable chair at the corner of the living room in black hood and trousers, and an evil smirk at the side of his lips like he owned the place.A million questions ran through Jasmin's head as she speechlessly stared at him.What did he want?How did he find her?Where's Lisa?What did he do to her?Despite the question running through her head, all she could utter became his name."Dennis."He puffed the rest of the smoke into the air.

The CEO's Contract With the thief CVII When the past returns
Jasmin stayed in the restroom for a few minutes and so much had already happened in her absence. She didn’t mind that he worked with Vanessa. Being a big girl meant not crying, not throwing tantrums, and lastly, not jumping to conclusions. What she didn’t understand was why they had to be so fond of each other. Cainan reached for her hands and affectionately took them into his. He said something that made Vanessa’s eyes widen and disbelief spread across her face. She threw her arms around Cainan and hugged him tightly before pulling away, the wide smile still on her face. Jasmin’s eyes blurred up, and she grew sick in her stomach. She wanted to leave. She needed to leave now. She blinked back the tears from her eyes and with all the composure she possessed; she made her way over towards him, dragging her leg with her, and soon she was beside the two happy couple. ‘Easy, Jasmin, remember things are not always what they seem, take the advice you
The CEO's Contract With the thief CVI: Jealousy never goes away
Jasmin and Cainan were invited on a double date with Alex and Rogue’s at the Pearl lounge and though reluctant at first about going, Cainan back her against the wall literally and she had no other choice but to scream yes. She had stopped going to the restaurant because, according to Cainan’s calculations, this was her delivery week and she needed not to stress herself. He always made an interesting argument with his mouth. She needed this, though; she had stayed home in the last two days and despite almost always being connected with Anita and Andrew to keep up with progress; yet she was running crazy. Meeting Alex and Rogue was a breath of fresh air. They were a pair, madly I love with each other and barely able to keep their eyes off each other. Their son Rayge was sixteen months old, and he was being watched by Gloria, his nanny so that they could have time for themselves. Alex shared the beauty of being a mother, and also the pain. They encourage

Anita was sitting on the covered toilet with her head buried in her palms and she was sobbing into it. It was a shocking sight to Jasmin because she had known Anita for so long but had never seen her broken, sad or even upset. The highest emotion she had seen her display was anger, which happened once in a while. Anita was always happy and positive, and she feared what might have changed
