Same Hotel

last update Last Updated: 2024-12-02 01:41:31

Mayeli sat on one of the benches scattered around the children's park, watching Bryelle play with the other kids.

Her mind was on Killian. For a moment, she had thought he had forgotten her, and it had pained her deeply. Now she knew he didn't forget her, she didn't know how to feel. 

One part of her was happy and the other was scared. What if he found out about Bryelle? She had promised her mother that she would tell him about Bryelle when it was time, but today, he had thrown that question at her, and she had outrightly denied his claims.

Why? She didn't know. What would she say to her baby when she was old enough to ask questions? Would she shield her child from her father?

Her relationship with Killian was already a very complicated one. She didn't think it was necessary to add more complications to it. What was she thinking two years ago?

She tucked her curly blonde hair behind her ear. She was Mayeli, the stunning, gorgeous lady. Brooding about a man was not something she did often.

She had a date with Nixen tomorrow. She should probably go, accept him, and forget everything about Killian. Nixen was perfect for her, and he could give her the life she craved. Love, money, and happiness.

Nixen was the type of man who would love every bit of her, even her worst side, until the very end. And somehow, she found herself drawn to the serenity of his love. A love filled with assurance and safety. But deep down, Mayeli knew that what she felt for Nixen could not in any way be compared to what she felt for the cold, indifferent, and tempting Killian.

Killian drew her in a way no man ever had, and after eight years she still found herself falling hard for him. Did she still love him? That was a question she had refused to answer since her return to England.

Her phone beeped, and a message from an unknown number flashed on her screen.

Meet me tonight? Same hotel, 8:30 pm? For a reason I can't seem to decipher, I can't stop thinking about you”.

Killian.

She gulped, her hands shaking as she read the words over, and over again. He wasn't sick in the head, right? 

And what was she thinking — was she considering going to meet him? She shook off the thoughts chastising herself.

This was probably one of his tricks or his trap. Maybe she had given him a memorable climax that had kept him craving her again, or maybe he simply liked her because pretty. She had heard he had a knack for pretty ladies. For a moment, she felt the sting of jealousy and she almost laughed. How could she want him, and yet not want him?

She thought silently for a moment, her brows frowned in concentration. She was not going to meet him!

She would get Bryelle from the bouncing castle, buy her a chocolate-flavoured ice cream, head straight home, and cosy up in bed with her favourite book in her hands, she decided.

Hours later, she was all dressed up, driving a sleeping Bryelle to her mother's house to spend the night. 

She had some fun to catch. Screw love! And Karma was certainly a bitch.

***

Killian acknowledged the receptionist's flirting smile as he collected the key to the hotel room he had been in, with Mayeli, two years ago.

He walked down the hallway, wondering if she would make an appearance. She had turned down his invitation earlier today, so it was stupid to expect her. But, a part of him remained hopeful.

Recreating the event from a night, two years ago was important, but he has many questions to ask. One whom he knew she was not going to want to answer.

He sat on the couch waiting for her, he would give her an hour to make an appearance. 

In his hurry to get here, he had worn a simple black LV top and pants with white sneakers. He hoped he didn't look awful.

He ran his hands through his hair for the umpteenth time that evening. What was he thinking? He had ditched a date with his favourite mistress, Laura, to wait for the arrival of a woman who most likely would not make an appointment.

When he checked his silver Rolex, and noted that he had been waiting for an hour and thirty minutes, he decided to give up. Just then, the door clicked open, and she walked in looking as stunning as he could remember.

“Killian?” She asked softly, her green eyes boring into him.

He felt his heart beat racing wildly. No woman had ever made him feel this way.

    “Mummy, meet Uncle Killian”, Bryelle said to Mayeli, pulling her to where Killian was standing, still and perfect as ever.She could see amusement in their eyes as he watched Bryelle, but as he turned to her, his gaze went cold.“I've met him, baby, he's kinda my boss at the office”.Killian gave her a quizzical look, and she almost laughed remembering the last time they had argued about him not being her boss.“Great. I invited him to lunch, and he agreed. You have to join us”, Bryelle said, giving her a serious little face.“Bryelle…I”.“You shouldn't disappoint your little girl”, Killian said, cutting her off.

    The next morning, when Mayeli woke, she had a bad headache. She had barely slept last night. Her mind was on the text message she received.Was it Killian? Was he trying to black mail her about the fact that he had found out Bryelle was his? He was the only one who knew about two years ago.How could he? She thought angrily. She thought she could at least trust him, but he had disappointed her. He had stooped too low, and she wasn't going to let it slide.Today was the fourth day of the week, and she was already exhausted. She badly wanted it to come to an end, though she didn't look forward to the party this weekend. She was not a lover of social gatherings. Nixen had promised to introduce her to all his friends, and the thought of it already bored her out.She sighed. Right now, Nixen's party was not her problem. Killian was.We went to the bathroom for a shower. When she was done, she dressed up in a flay, high-waist, dark-orange skirt, and a tucked in dark-green, sleeveless V-neck

    “Hey Tyse”, Nixen said casually, shaking hands with him.Mayeli stared at them, shocked. Tyse is a renowned multi-billionaire. Yeah, Nixen is, rich, but not up to Tyse, Truce, and Killian's level.“How're you doing bro”, Tyse beamed. There's a bright, genuine smile on his face, but Nixen's smile looks forced. Mayeli wondered why.“I'm good. It's a pleasant surprise to see you here”.“I brought Mayeli, but I'm on my way now”.Mayeli noticed Nixen's hands tighten around the bags he was holding. His smile evaporated.“Oh, I see”, Nixen mumbled, glancing at Mayeli.“I better get going”, Tyse said. He had probably noticed the change of expression.“I'll walk you to your car”, Mayeli said, following Tyse.“I think walking me to my car was a bad idea. Nixen didn't look happy about the fact that I brought you”, Tyse said, running his hands through his hair. Gosh, he was so handsome. After Killian, he was the finest man Mayeli had ever seen.“It's fine. You only helped”, She reassured him. So

She waited for Killian to reply, but she heard nothing other than a banged door. She hissed and entered the elevator. So, he had made good his threats.She thought of reporting him to the authorities, but she had no proof yet, plus she didn't want the circumstances surrounding Mayeli's birth to go public.
