The hotel

last update Last Updated: 2024-10-17 17:37:52

Mayeli smiled as he followed her to the hotel room they had just booked. It had been easier than she thought.

It hurt her slightly that he didn't remember her, but it made things easier, so it wasn't a problem.

She had heard from her sources that he had an accident that cost his memory, years ago, but a bit of her had still hoped he would know her when he met her.

She unlocked the door of the room, entered inside, and tossed her red channel purse on the table. She listened for his movement behind her as the door clicked shut, and the locks turned.

His arms came to wrap around her waist from behind, pulling her into an embrace, while his lips teased the skin on her neck. For a moment was shocked at the comfort she still felt in his arms and then a shudder ran through her body as he trailed kisses on her neck.

His words came back to her, words from a decade ago.

“I'd love you forever Mayeli, until my last breath”.

She moaned slightly as his hands came to rest on her breasts, squeezing mildly. When she turned to face him, his ocean-blue eyes held curiosity and a hunger so intense that it left her breathless.

“Why do you feel so familiar?” He asked, placing a kiss on her forehead, and taking her arms. She chastised herself for not thinking about the caring gesture. It was only happening because he was drunk, and it would be over before the morning.

“Perhaps you're quite used to being with blondes”.

He let out a dark chuckle, his eyes raking her body.

“Maybe”.

She closed the gap between them and arrested his lips. She had been waiting months for a chance to do this.

He pulled her back for a moment, searching her eyes, before leaning to place a soft kiss on her lips. She moaned, longing for the feel of his soft lips on her's again, and he chuckled, leaning down to kiss her deeply.

His hands explored her body, tugging at the zip of her dress, and setting a fire she hadn't realised she still had, ablaze inside her. Her body shook with the need she felt for him.

He pulled her dress off her body, leading her to the bed, while her hands tugged at his shirt, taking them off. Her fingers paused when she recognised the bold letters scribbled on his chest in italics. “Kaeli”, it read. Kaeli was her middle name. A name only Killian called her.

Tears clouded her vision, but she quickly tucked them away. She didn't want him to recognize her yet, at least not this way.

Her worries were soon forgotten as he took her breasts in his mouth, sending a wave of desire pulsing through her veins.

***

Killian smiled as a gasp escaped her lips when he buried himself inside her. It felt like he was coming home after a long time, and the hands holding his waist and the hips that cushioned his ride felt familiar.

It was as though her body was made entirely for him, just the way he wanted.

He thrust into her faster, pushing his thoughts away, and relishing at the way her moans sent sweet sensations running through him.

“Killian”, she cried as they both came undone.

His body went rigid. He could swear he had heard his name called this way in a past he couldn't recall.

His vision blurred as he collapsed on her, his body filled with both exhaustion and euphoria.

Without thinking, he pulled her into his chest, inhaling her sweet scent as he drifted off to sleep.

“I love you Mayeli”, he mumbled, feeling her go still against his body.

When he woke up to the blinding sunlight streaming into the room, she was gone. A note played on the bed beside him.

“It was the best in forever”, it read.

He stared at the note for a while, a slow smile on his face, for a reason he couldn't fathom, he felt like he just lost something he once treasured yet again.

He struggled off the thoughts, calling his guards to see if they were still out there. He felt a bit guilty for keeping them waiting all night, but it was their duty after all.

When he had confirmed they were still waiting, he headed for the shower. He had a meeting soon, and he hated being late.

He closed his eyes as the water washed the event of last night off his body, just the thought of her naked body against he's sent a shudder running through him. He hadn't felt the way he did yesterday in years, not from any of his numerous expert mistresses.

Should he trail her? Track her down and find out who she was. He let out a laugh, deciding against it. Somehow he knew he had seen her last night only because she wanted to be found, and he could only hope that she would want to meet him again.

Until then, he would forget her. With his busy schedule and the many things he had to amuse him, that would be a very small feat, he convinced himself.

Deep down he knew he would never be able to forget the woman he had taken last night and the unique way she had called his name like it was always meant for her perfect pink, full lips.

For age she was a smart, precarious child, always asking questions that left Mayeli stunned.

Her short, curly, black hair fell in waves a little past her shoulders, bouncing slightly with each movement. It blended perfectly with her black, expensive-looking suit. She looked elegant.“Mayeli darling, good to see you, it's been a while.Mayeli threw her a polite smile.

    Killian stared through Nixen's glass office walls at the beautiful lady with long blonde hair as she walked to her black 2023 Audi Q5, with a pretty little girl that looked almost exactly like her. He was certain she was the woman he had met at the Opera two years ago.He looked the way her Olive green suit complimented her glowing, pale skin. Her lovely blonde hair was packed in a neat ponytail, highlighting her heart-shaped face. His mind went to a night two years ago when he had held her body naked in his arms. He could still remember her exotic scent.He had only feigned ignorance earlier because she seemed very uncomfortable with his presence, and Nixen seemed to have something for her. He didn't want to cause any problems. But he wasn't sure he could keep to that when it came to her.How could he forget her? He had thought about her frequently in the past two years. He tracked her down and waited patiently for the right time to meet her. But he never found her. And after all th

    Mayeli stared at the surprised face of Killian. Had he not expected her to come?She had purposely kept him waiting. He could keep up with that at least.She loved the way his eyes raked her body in a very sensual way, as though he was seeing her for the first time.She was wearing a little green, flowing evening gown, with the split coming to rest just above her thighs. On her feet were silver Zara heels and her hands held a matching silver Chanel purse. Her long carefully styled blonde hair fell in waves down to her waist. She had applied only a light make-up and put on a silver necklace with matching dangling silver earrings. In all, she looked stunning as always.“I…I umm, I didn't think you would come”, Killian managed to say after minutes of staring.She loved the way his not too overly simian black, LV shirt highlighted his perfect body, blending with his curly black hair that he had left to fall over his face, this evening.

    “You don't like the food?” Nixen's soft voice asked, breaking Mayeli from her deep thoughts.He was looking as stunning as always in a simple, expensive-looking, Navy-blue straight trousers and white shirt. His straight black hair was left to fall slightly on his face making him look more handsome. Three of his buttons were left undone, exposing his well-built tanned chest. He looked ravishingly hot!“I love it”, she replied, throwing him a quizzical look. Why had he asked?Her thoughts had been on the event of last night, and she had probably phased out without knowing. Tears burned her eyelids as she recalled the memory. Killian and she had made love so passionately, relishing each other's comfort, and for a moment, she thought they could probably work out. But he left without a note or a goodbye. He left her like a cheap whore. And still, she had stared at her iPhone 14 pro almost a thousand times today, waiting for a text from him. How pathetic of her to think he was still her Ki

    Mayeli stared at her reflection for probably the tenth time this morning. She was having her first official meeting with Killian as his company's legal representative.As much as she tried avoiding him, she couldn't. He just always had a way of getting under her skin. She was starting to miss him though. She hadn't seen for almost two weeks now, and strangely, it bothered her.She checked her reflection out again, wondering if she had overdressed. She was wearing a long, corporate, long-sleeved, body hug gown that stopped well past her knees. The front part, along with one of the sleeves was white, while the other was black. On her feet was a pair of white Jimmy Choo heels, while her hands held a matching white purse. She let her long, blonde hair fall in wavy curls down her waist, and applied light makeup. She looked perfect.She did a little crazy dance, satisfied with her look before going to the kitchen to get breakfast ready.She finished breakfast, dropped Bryelle off at schoo

He had been mostly watching her from the beginning, but she had been too absorbed in the presentation to notice. And mostly, he was grateful for that.He couldn't get his mind off the image of her, getting down from her Audi Q5, and walking towards the building. She looked breathtaking.What was that you just said? How did he know? Of course, he had been watching her through his transparent glass wall.To be honest, he had been waiting for her.

    The tension in the air was thick enough for even the sharpest knives. Mayeli followed Killian to the doctor's office, their arms firmly clasped together.Killian drew out a seat for her, and she sat down. He drew another one for himself and sat down beside her.Killian’s Doctor stared at them for a few minutes, not saying anything.“Speak,” Killian commanded, his voice cold and impatient. Mayeli sent a look, and he had the grace to look sorry for just a few seconds before his cold mask returned in place. She almost laughed, despite her tears and anxiety. It had been a while since she saw this cold and commanding side of Killian.Doctor Gail cleared his throat. “I've run several tests since the last surgery we just performed, and I think I should perhaps run more before I break this news to you.”Mayeli felt her hands trembling and when she looked, she saw it was actually Killian’s clasped over her's.

    “It’s going to be okay,” Killian’s deep, husky voice said to Mayeli for probably the hundredth time. He was hugging her tightly in an attempt to keep her from falling apart.Mayeli wept like a baby. What was going to happen to Bryelle? Seeing her all covered in blood and looking lifeless on the floor, almost took the life out of her.“Maybe you should take her out for some fresh air?” Tyse said. “She’d do better with it.”“I’m not going anywhere. Not when my daughter is on the surgical table,” Mayeli snapped between hiccups.Mayeli knew Tyse was just trying to be helpful, but she was feeling very crappy at moment and she couldn’t help it. Plus, his suggestion may not be as helpful as he had thought.“Should I get you water or something?” Diora asked. Her voice sounded worried and scared.“Yes, please,” Killian replied.

She put on hand gloves and set to work.Bryelle was with her Mom, while Killian had gone outside the house to take a business call.Mayeli sighed. She had a lot on her mind. First, there was Bryelle, who was getting better, thankfully, but the Doctor said she had little chance of surviving the next two months. And then there was Killian and Shaila hating each other for some reason, which she had no idea about.A hand slipped around her waist, and she jumped, her back colliding with Killian’s broad chest. His sweet smell engulfed her, reminding her of musk and mist.“I didn’t hear you come in,” Mayeli said, smiling. His warmth spread over her body and along with it, hunger for him. Gosh, he still had his effect on her.Killian pecked her on the cheeks before releasing her. “I missed you.” His eyes slowly left her eyes and moved slowly to her exposed cleavage, making it burn suddenly.“Stop,” Mayeli laughed, hitti

No, nothing was going to happen to her baby, nothing was going to happen to Bryelle.“You said she had a 70% chance of healing. You said she could make it!” Mayeli screamed hysterically. Killian’s grip tightened around her.“Yes, I did say that, but the chances are slim at the moment. We’ve tried chemotherapy, but the tumours seem to be spreading rather than decreasing. At this point, she might be in serious pain soon, and if we continue treatment, it would only increase her pain”, the Doctor said, his face anxious and worried.“Are you asking us to give up?” Killian’s deep voice asked, betraying no emot

She could hear her heart slamming against her chest as Killian’s words replayed in her head.“Bryelle was just diagnosed with Neuroblastoma.”How could that happen to her baby? How was it even possible? It was her fault; she had made her daughter’s life so traumatic, and now she had brain cancer. What was she going to do without her child? The thought of losing another child sent waves of shock pulsing through her. How could life be so cruel?“Mayeli?” Her mother asked in alarm when she saw her. She rushed to Mayeli’s side. “What’s wrong?”Mayeli sniffed, trying to stop the tears from pouring, but they just won’t stop. “Bryelle…Bryelle…she has cancer, Mom.

He was still trying to process the information his doctor had just revealed.Bryelle had cancer.
