The Ceo's Addiction 45
"Do you know where this is?" He asked in a low tone. I didn't turn but kept admiring the beautiful building from the window. He held me by the shoulder, and I smiled as he kissed my hair. "The gateway of India," I replied, "Do you wanna go there?" He asked yet again. I turned. "I would love to, but I'm afraid this is not why you're here. You're here to work." I said to him, "I can make out time, baby." He picked up my hands and kissed each of them. "Okay. Tomorrow then," A smile crept onto my lips, he stepped closer and kissed me slowly. He bit my lower lips seeking entrance as I wrapped my hands around his neck, I dug my right hand in his hair as he let out a deep groan in his throat softly, his hands carrying me up to his waist as I wrapped my legs around his hips. "I love you." He said in between the kiss and took my lips again, eliciting a moan out of me. Soon, he dropped me carefully on the bed and started getting rid of my nightdress. He slipped my pants off my legs an

I was pacing to and fro the hotel room as I waited for Aiden. Who wouldn't when you're given a mysterious flower from an anonymous person?. I knew after I must have sent the message to Aiden, that he'd be on his way home. The message. 'I can't breathe, I don't know what's happening, I think I've attracted perverts.' It didn't take long before I heard a knock at the door. Suddenly, I ran and looked into the small opening to see Aiden. I opened the door. Aiden grabbed my cheeks immediately and kissed me, then he broke out of the kiss and I breathed deeply. He was looking around the room, and when he was done, satisfied that there wasn't anything out of place, he looked at me. "What did you say happened?" He asked. "The flowers," I pointed at the flowers on the table. He started walking towards the flowers without a word. "A card?" He asked and looked back at me. "I have never gone through it," I told him, agitatedly. I also wanted to find what was in it, but I calmed down a

I stayed at the reception while Aiden walked in to meet the board president, who I heard came back yesterday. It was three days and the gifts were up and coming. Sometimes I would reject it and throw it away or give it to a passerby. No day passed without me giving gifts to people. I suddenly felt the need to walk into the bathroom, not after I dialed Elle's number. "Hi.please, how can I find the restroom?." I asked the pretty receptionist, who smiled and asked her co-worker to attend to me. We reached the door, "You can find your way back, right?." She asked and I nodded, she left. "Why are you calling me?" Elle asked the minute she picked up. "What took you so long to pick my calls?" I asked back. I could feel her rolling her eyes right now. "I was busy at the office, and answer me." She answered sarcastically. "Baby, please come back to bed." I heard a male voice say at her end. I shook my head as if she was seeing me. "Your work is great over there. Who's that?" I as

As we walked into the mansion with Jeremy carrying our truck items, I stopped in my tracks when I saw Fiona in the living room. Even Aiden was surprised. "Mom," he called, then looked at me. "Oh, you're surprised to see me. I can visit, right?" She asked, and I raised my brows at her. Aiden scoffed, "Stop being dramatic, even if I don't want you here, you always do what you want. Well, quick question, what're you doing here? You can't leave the comfort of your mansion to come here for nothing." She smiled, "I need to talk to her, it's good you brought her, oh I forgot she lives here with you." She said with a scowl over her face. I cocked my brows at her and looked at Aiden. "Okay," Aiden said. "I mean, alone. She, me, alone." She emphasizes, using her finger to point it out. Aiden scoffed. "That's not gonna happen, you'll speak with her while I'm here," Aiden interjected rashly. I frowned. This isn't going to be great. I looked at Aiden, "It's not like she would harm m

Amazing grace How sweet the sound That saved a wretch like me. I once was lost, but now I'm found Was blind, but now I see I couldn't bring myself to sing this song, not because I wanted to disrespect Mrs. Addison in her burial, but because I don't like this song. It reminded me of my parents' funeral. Elle was sitting in front of her mom's corpse as the priest conducted the mass. She was putting on dark shades, but I know she was crying silently. She has always been a strong girl, but there's no way she was gonna get over the pain. Mrs. Addison was kind to all and sundry. She has treated me like her daughter since my parents died. Elle's dad was never around for them, and yet he couldn't make it to his ex-wife's burial ceremony. Her boss was standing beside her with a bunch of flowers while I stood beside Aiden, Damon with Gavin, and his girlfriend. We were all putting on black clothes. I rubbed my stomach as a result of not eating for two days now. I wasn't that hungry a

Narrator's pov "I can't believe you said that to her. Why are you this troublesome?." Aiden's voice rang into the office, getting everyone around scared and nervous. Whenever the boss is angry, they always get this way to avoid being fired. "Really? I am troublesome?." Fiona could not believe her ears. She couldn't believe Kathleen had the nerve to report her to her son. "Shameless woman!" She mumbled, her voice harsh and low. "You know how angry I get when I hear his name. If you could stop coming over to my house, I'd be grateful." He finished up and ended the call abruptly. Kat stood by the transparent door and listened. She didn't know if she should go in or not because she thought Aiden was still angry with her. Aiden looked up, then was surprised at seeing her. He waved at her to come in. Kat breathed out and walked into the office with a white transparent bag packed with food. She dropped it on the table and stood before Aiden. "I'm sorry." She said mildly, avoiding

Kat's pov. "Who did you say she was?" Elle asked me. I looked at her, "Aiden's cook." I replied, then looked back at Helena. I can't believe she tried to kill her baby. What if she died in the process? Gosh, is she crazy? I watched her hand move, and I looked at Elle, who saw the same thing, and Helena opened her eyes. She looked around the room, trying to discern what was happening around her, and then her eyes landed on me. "Sorry, Miss Kat. What's going on?" She asked, in a low voice. "You fainted," I replied. I watched as her expression turned into confusion, but it seemed as if it clicked as her eyes grew wide. "I'm sorry." She apologized and tried leaving, and we held her down. "Why are you apologizing?" I asked her, and she looked at Elle."Who're you?" She asked Elle, running her eyes on her suspiciously."She's my best friend and also the doctor who stopped you from dying. Why did you choose abortion?" I asked her back. "I don't know what you are talking about." She re

November 4th, 2016"Are you sure you're taking me to somewhere safe?." I, myself, was amused at my question. Aiden just came back from work and asked me to come out with him. I was in the kitchen, helping Helena with the chores, so she could rest early because of her baby.Aiden, on our way, asked me to close my eyes. Maybe he wanted to surprise me, but I don't find myself in that mood. I have been feeling somewhat tired since yesterday, and I had been sick but didn't want to disturb him. And it must be that I hadn't gone out for fresh air. I have been home since we came back from the trip. "Be careful." He mumbled. I was getting impatient already. Then he stopped, and slowly removed his hand from my eyes. I scoffed, "An amusement park?" I asked him, quite amused. Suddenly, he appeared in front of me, "Elle told me you loved coming here.." His face held confusion. "What?. Am I thirteen? Aiden, I can't believe you right now." I mumbled, and shut my eyes. The last time I had been her

"Stay away from her and read your books."Nicole turned from the words she was memorizing to her mother."Mom, are you okay?.""I should ask you that. Why did Lilly's mother call me now?. Answer me,"Aiden walks in immediately."What is going on, Honey?."

Like Lilly Miles?."The girl nodded and she looked at Aiden.Aiden whispered, "Don't tell me you're thinking of..?."Kat bent down and exclaimed, "Oh my god!."Nicole was just watching her parents reactions. As a smart kid, she already knew that her mom was not happy with her guest, then why?. What happened in high school that caused such insecurity?.That has been the question running through her mind."Mom, will I sleep at her place now?." Nicole tactically asked. To ask in front of her friend might make her give in to her. Nicole knew exactly where to get her mother."Fine. But I want you back the next morning. And also stay out of trouble." She ordered.Lilly and

"Nicole.." Lilly screamed, running towards her, she closes her locker and turned around."Xup, Lilly." She grumpily said.Lilly stopped smiling and asked her, "Why do you look sad?.""My mom disagreed, she'd asked me to bring you so she can see you."Lilly's face fell.Too bad."Well, my mom agreed. She'd asked to see the only friend who helped me with my school work." She replied,Lilly repeated classes after she fell numerous times, she was one year older than Nicole and they've become friends after she begged Nicole to help her with school works.Lilly is eleven and Nicole is ten.Nicole was the most popular and brilliant girl in school. She'd won so many trophies for the school."I think you would have to come to my house after school." Nicole said as they both walked away."Well, I've never met your mom. I know you must take after her," Lilly mused. Her friend was perfect, she had the perfect family, mom, dad, grandparents but Lilly never got to meet her dad, she only had her mom

Noelle ran outside, cutting Aiden off on what he was about to say to Dylan."Did you know she remembered?."Aiden and Dylan were confused."She remembered what?." He'd asked.Noelle breathed out. The way she ran had made her out of breath. She was trying to calm down too."Kat got back her memory."Aiden's eyes widened as he took up the run inside.Dylan and Noelle looked at each other for another moment without speaking to each other.He came closer to her and picked up her hand."I'm sorry that I walked out on you earlier."

"Helena?." Kat called."Kathleen," Helena called back."Wow. You two know each other, but I thought you lost your memory forever," Clara said and earned a glare from Kat and Helena."You. How dare you?. How dare you destroy my life?." Kat fumed and started getting up. Her eyes had turned stone cold and her hands were clenched."Not only did you destroy Natalie's life, you went ahead to destroy hers?. Why do you keep hurting the people I care for?." Helena stated firmly. Her guns were firmly pointed at Clara."If you come close to me, I will kill you both." Clara stated with fear.Just then, the police came running around them with their guns. All pointing their guns at Clara."Get down now!." One of the policemen yelled at Clara.It didn't take long before Clara realized that she lost. She had lost her battle. Her eyes were fixated at Aiden who had come running to Kathleen.

She snatched the binocular away and rushed outside.She viewed from the front porch.She didn't know this person.Who's this person?.She squinted her eyes and took a look again.That face?.What?.…...End of recapKathleen stood at the middle of the field, looking towards the direction of Clara in which she had taken in. She breathed out, watching her come closer. She'd thought that Clara was one tough girl who fought a million times after seeing lots of huge fighting men beside her, but she thought wrong, Clara was an opposite.A girl who had a silk skin, beautiful eyes and innocent looks. She'd imagined if she at all had left a prison. Clara was beautiful and classic and…"Wow..you look different." Clara cut off her thoughts with a strong voice.Okay, Kathleen underestimated her looks. She's really rude.Kathleen didn't wanna go round the bush but said in a very straight tone."Where's my daughter?."Clara smirked."Ooh. You've got some balls now. I didn't expect to see you.""You

She reached her room and sat down, her eyes looking into the phone every minute, waiting for any call.Suddenly, Aiden walked in. She breathed out and didn't look at him.Aiden walks further and stands in front of her, but doesn't touch her.Aiden mumbled, "Okay, I'm sorry." He apologized.Kat looked up, in her eyes, he was tired. He wanted everything to end, it was like everything was not gonna ever end in his family. His family was never gonna be together and his enemies made sure of that."You don't have to apologize.." She said but paused midway and looked up at him. Her eyes glinted, although she knew nothing about this woman, she was bent on getting her hands on her. She'd wished she found a way to catch her.Aiden bent down quickly, "I promise to get her out of the way, nothing will happen to you or our daughter." He sincerely stated.Kat shrugged."Do everything you can, Aiden."Aiden smiled and got up. He needed to shower and get ready for what is to come. He pulled off his w

She was speaking to one of the maids in the kitchen, and Nicole was surprised.She walked into the kitchen and touched her and Kat turned instantly."I've been calling you, you seem not to answer."Kat was confused, "Call me?.""I've been screaming your name for like ages," Nicole repeated.It then dawned on Kat that she was called Kathleen, not Lisa."Oh my god!. I'm so sorry. I've not been acquainted with the name yet. You know I lived with this name for five years."Noelle nodded understandably."Aiden asked me to remind you of the doctor's appointment. He just left for his office now,""How could he just leave like that?, he was supposed to take me there," She said, frowning."It was urgent, anyway I could take you there and maybe we could catch up like old times, I will tell you about yourself to help you remember,"Kat smiled at Noelle, she appreciated her, "Thank you, Noelle. I'm very happy that you could help. I still
