Mirabel inhaled and exhaled deeply as soon as she stepped out of the car. She had a smile on her face just thinking of the activity that would take place today.She had made her brother sit in the back with Elizabeth to give them time to speak to one another. Whenever they spoke and Elizabeth blushed she would smile. She kept peeking glances at them through the mirror and when she noticed she was about to be caught, she'd look away. Mr Smith carried their bags in his hands as they began to walk. Mirabel moved from where she stood beside her brother so Elizabeth could stand beside him."It's been a long time since I went hiking. Kinda nervous." Elizabeth admitted.She had only gone hiking with Victoria and it felt different without her friend here. "Don't worry Elizabeth. You will be fine." Mirabel tells her with my smile on her face. "Even if you won't be, my brother is here for you...I mean us." She added.Elizabeth noticed every little action taken by Mirabel and she understood it
The moment Mr Smith returned back to the office, the first person he asked for was Victoria but he got the news that she asked for a two days leave."What do you mean she asked for a two days leave? Who gave her the permission and when was that?" He asked Clara with a blank facial expression and his both hands in his pants pocket.Clara was frightened by the tone he used. "Mr Lucky." She replied almost quietly."Mr Lucky. When did she meet him?" He asked. He was infuriated because he had come to see her after so many days only to hear she took a two days leave. All his days at Northern Virginia, he was constantly reminded of Victoria one way or the other. Either he saw someone who acted just like she did or something that made him remember how she spoke or what she would have done if she was by his side."Yesterday he was around and she asked for a two days leave due to an emergency and he let her go." Clara explained to him.Mr Smith clenched his fist. He took in a deep breath and ex
"Ms Perkins?" Mr Smith called wanting to be sure she was the one he was seeing. Victoria halted on her track to see if the voice which she had guessed to be Mr Smith was indeed his. Once she confirmed, a smile formed on her face, she knew it was his but didn't know why she contemplated."You are still here? What happened?" Mr Smith asked, his both hands in his pants pocket."Oh. I forgot my slippers. I thought I would come to work with my slippers today but it turns out I didn't and..." She trailed off showing him her broken heels.His eyes widened a bit in realization. "Oh." He muttered."That's why I came. I am on my way home though." she tells him."I will drop you. After all I cannot let you walk barefooted." He blurted out before thinking."Oh." Victoria muttered. "It's actually no problem. I can manage. I will just call an Uber and they will drop me off. Don't want to disturb you." She tells him.Mr Smith sighed as he pinched the bridge of his nose. "You always reject my offer
"Why are we here?" Victoria asked Mr Smith as soon as he parked in front of his cabin."We are here because you refuse to tell me your house address and besides this is the closest place. It's not always safe to drive inside the rain." He defended. "Oh." She muttered, her mouth forming the 'O' shape.It stated the rain the moment Mr Smith began to drive. They both got out of the car and ran to the front of the door which was very close from where he parked his car.Mr Smith opened his cabin and led her inside. She sighed in relief once she entered the warm cabin. She wasn't beaten by the rain but she felt cold. Mr Smith led her to where the house warmer was and her eyes widened in realization and she recalled what happened the last time she was here. She froze on the spot , refusing to take a step further.She flushed in embarrassment thinking of it. She had managed to get over it until today and it was because she had to be in that same place the awkward moment occurred.Mr Smith no
Victoria's eyes widened in shock once Mr Smith placed his lips on her. Everything in her head and mind went blank. Her boss was kissing her and she didn't know what to do.Her heart raced faster than normal, and her body froze from the shock. She was still trying to comprehend everything that was happening to her. Mr Smith grabbed the bottle of jack Daniels in her hands, not wanting her to let go of it in her state of shock, he took it and placed it on the island beside her. He kissed her, more like a perk at first and suddenly craved for more.He gave her an open mouth kiss and he kissed her again and again. Her eyes were still open and her head was trying to send a signal to her body. Mr Smith moved his hands so they were on her arms pulling her closer to him. He kissed her again and again until she finally got a grip of herself and closed her eyes slowly. She began to kiss back slowly. The kiss started out innocently until Mr Smith decided to involved tongue.The moment his tongu
Victoria tossed and turned on her bed for the umpteenth time now. Whenever she closed her eyes, she couldn't help but see Mr Smith's face and not just his face but their kiss. She would immediately open her eyes and cringe.Her heartbeat raced faster than normal whenever the kiss resurfaced in her memory. She loved it, she wished it didn't stop and she scolded herself for not wanting it to stop."Why do I feel this way?" She asked herself as she stared at the ceiling. The feelings she got while kissing Mr Smith were indescribable. She felt every inch of her body ignite in flames as he pulled her closer. He tasted so sweet that she wished she had not stopped. "What do you feel for your boss Victoria? Do you think this is right?" She said to herself refusing to admit to herself that she felt a deep connection with Mr Smith."Okay, it's fine. You find him attractive which is okay. I mean many girls do find him attractive. He is a sight to behold. He is hot, sexy and we'll vry capable. I'
Victoria sighed deeply. She didn't think it was a good idea for her friend to confess to him yet. They might have known each other for over three months but she wasn't open to the idea of her friend confessing first."How much do you know about him?" Victoria asked her. She still regarded Mathew as the mysterious guy as Elizabeth wasn't one to keep quiet about someone else's identity."Well I know he is an orphan. He has a sister and works in a big company. He owns a mansion and has a lot of cars. He is a very good brother and a very good listener." She tells her friend."That's not bad for a start. What's his favorite food?" She asked.Elizabeth brows creased in confusion as she wondered the reason for her friend's sudden interrogation. "Is something wrong? Are we going to start with this identity check of a thing again?" Elizabeth asked. Victoria never let a day go by without asking about Mathews' background whenever she brought him up.She understood her friend's insecurities but i
"You are really stupid to think a man like Mr Smith is single. He doesn't look single, he doesn't act single and besides we finally got the proof we wanted and I remember telling you I saw him with a very beautiful woman in a restaurant and they were speaking in a not so friendly manner." Rebecca said as she folded her arms across her chest.Victoria remembered Mr Smith telling her he had no girlfriend and the girl he was seen with was his friend. She suddenly does not know if she should believe him or not. Rebecca's words were convincing and that made her heart ache as she remembered the kiss she shared with him.She felt her chest tighten as she clenched her fist thinking if he really had a girlfriend. Rebecca noticed some changes in Victoria's face that got her concerned."Is something wrong Victoria? Your face suddenly changed." Rebecca said staying the obvious. Immediately, Victoria forced a smile on her face as she shook her head. "Nothing. I just remembered something." She lie
