ASHLEY… "Has the cat caught your tongue? I need an answer from you, now isn't the time to keep mute. Do you love me?" I asked him, raising my eyebrow in anxiousness. For some reason I wanted him to tell me what my ears ached to hear so badly, I wanted him to tell me that he has fallen in love with me. This feeling burning in within my heart, I can't make sense of it but why do I feel it's love? I'm I really in love with him?. I felt this when Kylian made me fall deeply in love with him and at the end of everything I lost him to another woman. If I decide to accept this feeling of love will Dante also leave me for another woman? was I do unlucky when it comes to love and finding happiness?. "Love? my opinion about love would never change" he said, his face softening into a smirk. He stepped forward and before I could blink, in one motion he straddled me and pinned my arms above my head, the heat of his body pressed against mine and I tried to shove him off but then he snatched me an
ASHLEY… "I still haven't changed my mind about wanting to leave your mansion" I said in a low voice, pursing my lips in determination and concentration "Didn't I say you aren't going anywhere so quit the topic and I'm not in the mood to talk to you neither do I have all the time to keep wasting on you, I have a pending heavy workload to attend to" Dante gave me a warning glare, his voice erupting like a thundering volcano and I wondered if this was the same man who was consumed with pleasure and who wouldn't stop pumping his fingers inside of me not untill I released my juices into his fingers and he licked them up like his favourite lollipop just a while ago. "You should use that tone on people who are scared of you and not me. I have made up my mind and besides what will I do here in this mansion? do you expect me to talk to the servants? It will be best if you let me go so I can continue my job as a stripper" "That will only happen if I let you get your job back" he said in a l
ASHLEY… "Yes boss" I strained my words, faking a smile at him despite brimming with hostility and rage throbbing in me like a heartbeat. Opening the other end of the car door and sliding onto the backseat with him and I smirked angrily, placing the huge load of files between us that I was barely able to carry without having to place my two hands under it and creating a barrier which he seemed unnoticed by what was happening. The entire ride to the company was a silent one, I shifted closer to the window unwinding it to take a good peek at the ray of the morning sun but he whined it back. Glancing up at him with resentment clouding my thoughts I tried to breathe in deeply so I could avoid reacting but that wasn't helping matters. "What the hell is wrong with you!?" I said through my teeth and closed my eyes then I opened them glaring up at the man who wasn't reacting to my words "I'm talking to you, why do you have a problem with me taking a peek at the morning sun? do you also want
DANTE… "Suprised to see me?" I smirked "No..I mean yeah I'm suprised, who wouldn't be surprised? you are coming to the office after so long and you didn't even inform me" Adrian said, my eyes narrowing at him and I laughed softly "Eight fucking months isn't that long and I'm glad I didn't inform you otherwise I wouldn't know that my company has become a play ground where employees of this office come to listen to stories or should I use the word gossip instead" "What!? I wasn't aware of all this, infact I just came now" Adrian remarked and I raised a finger up, indicating him to shut his mouth and I couldn't help but notice his eyes that burned with rage "I'm seeing some new faces for the first time and despite me being here you all still have the guts to whisper amongst your selves" I said with a scowl residing in my face, placing my foot on the floor and pushing the chair backwards I shoved my hands into my pocket turning round Adrian in circles "Let me introduce myself to you
ASHLEY… "What is my next schedule?" Dante questioned with his eyes glued and swiping on his phone as we walked out of the conference room into the elevator "You have a meeting by 4pm with investor Ryan, you just need his signatures on the papers so the deal can be sealed" I replied "Okay it's 3pm right now and since we are both business men we work with time so you'll be the one to sign the deal" "What!? I'm not an investor" I said, my voice coming out in a yell and his eyes flew up at me, his face splitted into a grin "What the heck is wrong with you? don't you even understand simple english? I want to know what you were doing in college because it seems you didn't learn anything, did you even graduate?" he taunted, raising his eyebrow at me in mockery and my gaze met his in surprise and disbelief. I was glad I realized early on what he was trying to achieve by pushing my buttons, his ways are so cheap that he'll go to any extent to get a reaction from me "I went to college and
ASHLEY… "Just think about my offer, we can always become intimate friends but it seems you don't like it that way so I'll make sure you don't feel used, name your price! and for Dante you don't need to worry about him because whatever happens here will stay here" Ryan said, walking towards me in quick strides and in a blink I was pinned ontop of his warm body, his arms locked around mine. I brought my lips to his ear and rasped softly. "I'll prefer to be dipped in waste products before I let a misogynist pig like you lay a hand on me" "Watch your tone woman or else I'll make you suffer the consequences for your actions" "Don't you dare try to threaten me because it won't work, you may have tried your shameless antics on other women but Ashley Mateo is different" I fumed, pushing him away from me and my eyes blazing with fury "This is an insult to me and your actions will make Dante Garvino lose a deal worth billions neither can I even begin to imagine what he'll do to you" "Worry
ASHLEY… I jerked my head up and I stumbled back, losing my footing for a brief moment. I clamped my hand over my mouth and my eyes widened in disbelief, suprise had taken hold of me threatening to spill from my lips in an uncontrollable gasp. Dante looked into my face for some response, but I just stared blankly at him. A tear was forming but I wouldn't let it fall as I looked away, my face turning red and I was shaken to the core, I was unable to believe the scene that happened before me. He raised his filthy hands on me in front of everyone and that was enough disrespect being hauled at me. "Ashley" he muttered, stalking towards me "No!" I screeched with blood draining down my face,my right hand raised up in the air and resentment smoldering inside of me. "Don't you dare come near me you bastard, just get the fuck away from me. This slap will always remind me of how you disrespected me and how cruel of a man you are" I spat with a disgruntled look on my face as I scurried upstai
DANTE… "That was quite impressive Garvino, you missed the aim but I never intended to kill you. We have been working together all along and I'm very loyal when it comes to friendship" Ryan said with an evil gleam in his eyes and my breathing became heavier, my thoughts were clouded with the unknown. I stepped towards Ryan, glaring at him and before he could react I shoved him backwards as my nostrils flared and I stared at him. "People like you shouldn't utter a word about loyalty. You were picking on my assistant and when she made it clear to you that she won't give into your demands you called her all sort of dirty names and you tried to poison my mind against her" I yelled with a serious tone "Don't tell me we are at this again. Is she really an assistant or more? are you in love with her?" "I don't love her because love is the weakest of all but because of your spiking and venemous words I raised my hand onto a woman. My hands have killed and destroyed but these same hands has
