2024-12-13 03:18:55“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 he took note of Nixen's sour mood.
“If you say so”, he replied with a smile.
When they reached his red Alfa Romeo, they stood awkwardly, not knowing what to say to each other.
“So I'll see you around?” Tyse asked, biting his perfect, lower pink lips. His brown eyes twinkled as always.
“I guess. You're my boss after all”.
Tyse chuckled. “Hardly”.
He gave a brief hug and a peck on the cheeks and then entered his car. He was about to pull away when a black, 2023 Maybach Exelero pulled in.
Mayeli felt her mouth path wide open. What the heck? Was the owner Vincenzo Casino from the movies? The car itself spoke millions of dollars.
Killian stepped out of the car with an indifferent expression on his gorgeous face, like he wasn't coming down from one of the world's most expensive cars. He looked stunning in a simple white shirt and light grey pants. His curly black hair was falling slightly on his face as usual.
Tyse stepped out of his car and went to meet him. The two men talked for a while, before turning to her.
“You'd get flies, Wess”, Killian said with a smirk.
“Oh”, Mayeli mumbled, feeling embarrassed. Her embarrassment was quickly replaced by anger, when sh had composed herself.
Killian threw her a bored look like he was waiting for her to start being dramatic again. His ocean-blue eye had no sign of remorse.
“What are you doing here?” Mayeli barked.
Tyse threw her a surprised look while Killian remained composed, his face betraying no emotion.
“Someone got injured at my house. It's only right that I visited. I'd have been here earlier, but I had to deal with my incompetent security team first”, he replied casually.
“They hardly need to be dealt with, you know. You did a quite clean job. No fingerprints and no evidence”.
She had spoken with the security team before she got here and was told that there was no evidence found at the crime scene. They had found only Diora's fingerprints, nothing else.
Tyse stared at Mayeli. “What are you talking about?”
“I guess Killian can answer that question himself”.
Tyse looked like he was about to reply, but Killian cut him off.
“She assumes I hurt Diora”, he mumbled indifferently.
“Why is that?” Tyse asked Mayeli.
Mayeli gulped. As much as she wanted to, she couldn't tell him. She didn't want him to raise questions about Bryelle.
“Mayeli?” Tyse asked.
“Forget it, man”, Killian snapped, sounding irritated.
“Fine”, Tyse mumbled.
The two men walked past her and headed inside the hospital. Mayeli stood outside for a while before she followed.
“How're you feeling?” Killian was asking Diora in a very soft tone when Mayeli stepped inside the room. He was holding Diora's hands, and staring deeply into her eyes with a caring expression. Diora was grinning widely.
Mayeli felt a pang of jealousy stab her. He had barely spoken politely to her when they were outside and had walked past her like she was nothing. Now here he was being so caring. She didn't even know he had it in him.
“He was nice to you earlier tonight, and he walked past you because you were yelling at him”, her inner voice whispered.
She shivered as she remembered the feel of Killian's slender hands exploring her body only a few hours ago. The guilt came back to her in full waves.
She looked away from Killian to see Tyse and Nixen watching her. She silently hoped that it hadn't been too obvious that she had been staring at Killian.
“Are you cold, my love?” Nixen asked, covering the distance between them, and pulling her into his arms.
She looked towards Killian, but he was too engrossed in the conversation he was having with Diora, to notice her.
She took in a deep breath and snuggled into Nixen's warm body. What did she have to lose anyway? Kanywaydidn't care about her.
After a few minutes, Killian walked out of the room, barely glancing her way. He returned with the doctor to say Diora could be discharged.
He offered to drop Diora off at her house and keep a bodyguard with her just in case.
Mayeli watched them, feeling more miserable with each passing second. Wsecondjealous? She reassured herself that she couldn't be. Nixen was right here with her, and he was perfect for her.
When they got outside, Nixen went ahead to help Diora into Killian's car, while Tyse walked to his.
Mayeli found herself alone with Killian, for the third time this night.
“You look tired”, Killian mumbled in a soft voice.
“And what's that to you?” Mayeli replied, trying her best to sound tough. She was melting inside. She was angry at him though, how could he comfortably flirt with her best friend in front of her?
“How can you be so jealous of his talk with Diora, when you have your man a few paces from you”, her inner voice chastised.
The voice wasn't far from the truth, but right now she didn't care.
“Can we not always fight, Mayeli?” Killian asked, sounding a little frustrated. At least was showing emotions now.
“I should be the one saying those words”.
He looked at her, running his hands through his hair. “I'd never hurt you, Mayeli”, he said in a low voice that sounded almost broken.
“You can barely say that when I'm being threatened by you right now”.
“So you're scared of me? You think I'd hurt you?”
“Honestly, yes”.
“Fine, then better be prepared for what's coming”. His voice was cold and dead serious.
Mayeli managed a straight face. “You'd pay for your actions Killian”, she fumed.
“Then make me, Mayeli”. He turned and walked past her towards his car. She could see his hands were balled into a fist.
She would make him pay, she vowed.

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 m

“Mom, can I have some more gummy bears?” Bryelle, Mayeli's two-year-old daughter asked, batting her long lashes that perfectly complemented her lovely face.Bryelle was dazzlingly beautiful just like Mom and Dad, though she took her father's light blue eyes, his perfect lips, and his curly black hair. For age she was a smart, precarious child, always asking questions that left Mayeli stunned. She probably got that trait from both of her parents.“No baby, you've had too much already, let's get you to school”, Mayeli replied, standing up to grab her brown Louis Vuitton handbag.She was wearing a dark brown Everlane suit, with matching brown Steve Madden heels to complete the look. Her blonde hair was packed in a neat, low bun. As always, she looked perfect.“Mom, please”.“I'm sorry baby, let's get going.

His mind was on something more urgent.A construction worker had just sued Soter Group for the injury he had sustained while using their product and was demanding a million dollars as compensation.“Crazy”, Killian muttered angrily.From the look of things, the odds were against them, and the man seemed most likely to win the case.

She looked elegant.“Mayeli darling, good to see you, it's been a while.Mayeli threw her a polite smile.

Mayeli stared at Killian. How could he? How could he do that to Diora, while making out with her?He kept a nonchalant expression, showing no signs of guilt. “What did you do to her?”He looked at her with something close to anger and irritation. “I didn't do anything, Mayeli”.Truce looked at both of them.“Am I missing something here?” Truce asked.“I don't know, ask her?” Killian yelled.Truce turned to Mayeli. “What's wrong, Mayeli?”“Ask your friend”, she screamed, walking away.She saw Truce throw her a quizzical look, and then swiftly ask Killian what was happening. 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. Of Course, surely it would if she reported the matter to the authorities. It involved two prominent figures a

Killian stared at Mayeli’s stubborn expression, not knowing what to do. She looked a bit scared by his words, but she maintained a defiant look. She had a face that reminded him of Becky G.She bit on her full, lower lips, and pouted stubbornly. “I hardly deserve a beating for using your toilet”, she pointed out.“Against my will”.“It's just a toilet”. She folded her arms and sat on his bed. “You look gorgeous in white and black though”.His eyes bulged at the socket. What did she just say?She stood up from the bed and walked to where he stood, planting her small frame in front of him. She had a coquettish smile on her face. Gosh! She was tempting him.“Maybe I can handle your anger, so bring it on”. He stared at her slightly apart, pulp, pink lips, and a sensation ran through him.He was certain it was the alcohol talking, but it didn't stop him from feeling the day he was feeling. He turned away from her and walked towards his balcony. He wasn't sure he could resist her when she w
The Chemistry His Room
Mayeli edged through the crowd in search of Killian.She had been asking herself several times why she was looking for him, but she couldn't find an answer. When she couldn't see him anywhere, she gave up. She stood in the shadows silently watching the party and sipping wine. She was starting to feel lightheaded from all the wine she had consumed.She felt the urge to pee and headed to find the restroom. For fuck sake, where would she find one in this large house, she wondered.She took the elevator and pressed the third floor, though she wasn't sure where that lead. Build least, she could escape from the noise of the party for a while.When the elevator door opened, she walked down the hallway stretched in front of her, looking for anything that looked like a restroom.Her feet felt wobbly, and she quickly gripped the nearest door handle for support.

People were turning towards that direction, but she didn't care.“I didn't send the message,” he said, raising his brow slightly. His blue eyes looked angry.“Are you going to keep denying it?”“Why are you so certain it's me?” He ran his hands through his lovely hair, letting out a frustrated sigh.“Because only you and me fucken know about two years ago”.“You said your baby was not the product of the affair, so why does it bother you so much?
