Weeks go by and I don't hear from the number again. I completely forget about it as I am completely distracted now that I'm working for my ex who I may or may not have feelings for.

It's Monday morning and I am getting ready to go to work. I've been enjoying working with Enrique and sometimes it feels like the old times again.

After getting out the shower I do skincare which is washing my face, SPF and moisturizing my face as well as my body.

I get dressed in my white body-con dress gold heels, my second favorite gold necklace and a white coat with gold buttons. I put my hair in a bun and start with my makeup. I don't wear a lot of makeup just concealer,highlighter,mascara and a light pink lipgloss.

I get my purse that's also white with gold detail.

I go outside and my driver is already waiting for me. I get into the car.

" Morning miss." He says

"Morning." I say " Work Tom as always."

He nods and we take off. I arrive at the main building and I walk in scan my card on the machine at the door and I go in. I take the elevator on and hit the button for the top floor.

When I get there I strut to the office. I open the door a little and peak through. I see Enrique reader through papers. " Good morning." I say as I walk in and close the door.

" Morning." He says " Listen I need your opinion on something.

" Sure. What about?"

I walk over to his desk and leave over looking at the papers.

" Hotel?"

" The board wants to buy this small hotel and make something better out of it."

" Sounds like a good idea to me." I say with a bright smile on my face because I know that this is what he's always wanted. He's always wanted a business of his own and he's always wanted to buy a hotel. G enterprises has a lot of properties and hotels but this would be his first business move as the CEO. " I know you can do this. I believe in you." I say grabbing his hand a slightly squeezing it.

He looks at my hand and looks up at me.

" Then why didn't you believe in us?"

I sigh knowing very well where this could go.

" I wasn't ready."

" How about now?" He asks pulling me onto his lap. He wraps his hands around my waist keeping me in place so I can't get up.

I find myself running my fingers through his black curly hair. He looks at me with those perfect blue eyes that make me feel like I want to drown in them. He moves his face closer to mine so that there's less than an inch between our lips.

" Why can't you be my princess again?"

" I want to." I answer him " I want to but I'm still not ready."

"Then let's just have fun." He whispers against my lips and I feel his hot breath going into my mouth. He kisses me softly. I finally get to feel those soft lips again. He goes in for another kiss this time more passionately. It feels like it used to but also different. He's kiss is so much more dominating like he's taking ownership of me. I break the kiss and I begin to kiss his neck while grabbing onto his hair to probe my own dominance. He grabs my thighs and gets up still holding me. He puts me on top of the desk and pins me down hovering over me.

" You're mine."

" I'm yours."

I can't believe I'm actually submitting to him again so once again I try to claim power by kissing him and grabbing his hair again. However it doesn't make any difference it's still like he has a complete hold over me.

The door flies open and we're both on our feet immediately.

It's my dad.

" What is your decision on the hotel deal?"

He struggles a little before his answer knowing my dad must've seen and heard us.

" I think it's a good idea. I just have to sign the paperwork and send it over."

" But you've seen the place?" My dad asks

" Yes I have and I think it's a good idea." He loos over at me before looking at my dad again "We both do."

" Good." My dad says and turns to me . "I need to talk to you about something."

" Sure." I say following him outside.

" Have you heard from Leandro or your uncle recently?" He asks

" What? Why?"

" Have you? " he asks as if he's demanding that I answer him.

" I may have gotten a message from Lehandro but it wasn't addressed and it was an unknown number. I still know it was him but that was weeks ago."

" We might have a problem. I've had someone track them over the passed few years but your uncle has suddenly disappeared and he's lost track of Leandro. The thing is one of the employees saw Leandro right here in New York at a restaurant."

" He's back?" I ask and start breathing heavily

" It may have been someone else but the possibility is bigger that it could very well be him."

I start shaking and I feel like I don't have enough oxygen everything he's done to me comes back in flashes. The room starts spinning and I feel like I can see him everywhere until I see nothing at all. I see nothing but black and I feel like I'm being choked.

    “H-he was here.” I finally manage to get out. My dad doesn’t say anything. He closes my window and he goes back downstairs. I sit on the floor looking out the window. My whole body is shaking. A feeling I know all too well. My dad comes back into my room after a while but not long enough for me to completely fall apart.“I have security guards all around the house. They will stay there all night to ensure your safety.” He says. “ All you have to do is sleep peacefully through the night and go to work tomorrow as if nothing happened. I’ll take care of it.”My dad has always been like this. He always does everything when it comes to protecting us but he also expects us to live our lives as if nothing happened while he ‘takes care of it.’But I don’t argue with him.“ Sure dad. Whatever you say.” I add sarcastically which he doesn’t pick up at all. I do my nightly skincare and try to get my mind off of everything before getting into bed. I try to call Enrique but he doesn’t pick up so I

    “Who’s there?” I yell out as I grab the nearest thing I can which is a log for the fireplace. “It’s me Princess. It’s Enrique.” Hearing his voice felt like a relief. I had surely thought that it could be Leandro. I slowly open the door and let him in.He immediately grabs me into his arms.“ Are you okay?”“ I’m fine. I just needed some time to think after finding out my entire life has been a lie.”“I’m sorry.” He says wrapping his arms around me again. In that moment I feel safe like I always do around him.That feeling was short lived as reality came flashing through my mind again.I push him away. “Why didn’t you tell me?” That feeling I had felt, the safety I felt with him was now turned into distrust and betrayal.“ I just found out this morning.” He saysI sigh” It doesn’t matter anyway,my entire life has still been a lie.”I finally look at him his blue eyes filled with sadness.“ Your mom didn’t cheat on your dad.” He says. “ Your parents adopted you but they love you more

    I wake up the next morning and I turn to face him but he's gone. I sigh and put on a silk pink robe. I look in the mirror and my hair is messy so I brush it out. It's something I've always done. The only off-putting things about me in the morning has been my messy hair. I go downstairs and find him in the kitchen making breakfast. One thing he's always loved is making food for us. I do think it all comes down to how you were raised. I on the other hand try to stay as far away from a stove as possible, except for when I have no choice but to make something for myself. Around him I've always felt a little inferior because he's not as spoilt as I am. I used to blame everything on my parents until I met Enrique. And our relationship was like a Taylor Swift song. Now it's so complicated I can't begin to define it. He turns around and I realise I've been staring this entire time."Morning." he says as he walks closer to me and kisses my forehead. "Morning."I say touching my forehead whe

I’m scared of what I’ve done.” He pulls me in and holds me tight in his arms while I’m bawling my eyes out. After I while I just stop.

    We stop at a big apartment complex building. "Well we're here." he sates. The building looks smaller than most of the ones I see in New York so I assume they live in the penthouse as well. "Do you own this building?" I ask "Yeah. I do." he chuckles " You catch on fast." We take the elevator up to the penthouse. The first thing I notice is to the left I see a girl with long wavy black hair and slightly tanned skin sitting eating what looks like a fruit salad then another older lady dressed in a uniform which tells me she is the housekeeper, approaches us.
