Chapter 44

last update Last Updated: 2022-07-03 22:46:01

There were certain things in life that were impossible. Like waking up and finding a million dollars in your bed, like waking up and finding yourself almost as fast as The Flash. And the most impossible thing that up to now I found difficult to believe was that Niklaus Rogers liked me well technically it was loved me even though he didn't put it that way.

I clung to his shoulder almost trying to make out whether this was a dream. My stomach was full but that didn't stop me from taking his hand when he asked me to dance. Everything. He went through an extra mile to do all this for me. We slow danced to the song 'In The Stars by Benson Borne' and my heart raced with excitement. Niklaus Rogers was my boyfriend now.

It didn't seem possible and deep down I wanted to scream from sheer excitement. I wanted to confess that I loved him, I loved how good he smelled, I loved the way he smiled, how grumpy he could get, I loved the fact that he treated me differently, made me feel important? And l

    "I hate to say it but with Daniel we managed to pull this off",Drizella commented spreading the designs on top of her desk.I hated to admit it but when I was gone, Daniel handled everything like I would have. But then again, he started all this, he stole our designs leading to us having to team up."Yeah. The designs are great but don't forget he is the one that started all this", I hinted."Are you saying that because of dad or Issa? Come on, Klaus. What he did to dad happened years ago. I think you are mad because he is Issa's fiance"No. I wasn't mad at Daniel Harman because of that. I was mad at him because I came second to my dad because of him. Daniel Harman was like the son my dad wanted to have. And when my dad discovered Daniel's betrayal in the company, I was his scape goat. Simply marry me off to Isadora Montefalco so that he wouldn't lose his precious company.And Isadora, God now that I was thinking more clearly she was the last person on my mind. The only person that li

    "I don't understand, I thought that he had already had surgery",Klaus asked confused.He ran his fingers through his hair nervously as we all await the doctors to rush out of the operating room and tell us how Benny's dad was doing.Benny's mom stood with Benny in the middle of the hallway crying nervously and leaning against Benny for support.I felt sorry for them. Watching your father almost die infront of you must have been traumatizing. I never got to see my father or my mother but I'm sure Benny felt like shit at the moment.I held onto Niklaus' hands as we both sat across the couches from where Benny and his mother stood."Hey it's not your fault, Nick. You couldn't have known that would happen", I assured him."What if-he. Something bad happens to him. I'll have to deal with that. It's on me, Elle"At this point I couldn't fathom whether he was talking about Benny's dad or his father. He didn't like to talk about his father, William Rogers and I didn't want to pry further.But

    "What did you two talk about?" I asked watching her undress infront of me as she got ready for bed.It took a lot of self restraint not to stare like I had in the last couple of days. What had happened today was just remarkable. Surprisingly it felt good talking to her about my dad, like a huge weight had been lifted off my shoulders."That's between your sister and me", she replied discarding her bra in the laundry basket.And that's the thing that bothered me. It was Drizella we were talking about and she wasn't Elle's biggest fan. What if she said something bad to her? Or made Elle hate me?"Relax, Nick",she sluggishly walked towards the bed pulling the covers away so she could hop in."She was nice to me, if that's what you are wondering""Drizzy? Nice? What did you say to her?""I don't know, I guess she felt nice that you finally talked about your dad and she somehow I thought that I'm the reason behind it""Well she wasn't wrong. I couldn't have talked to them without your help

    I woke up next to an empty bed, it was a bit disappointing not to find Nick's sleepy face next to me. Ofcourse I understood that something must have come up at work for him to leave so early without telling me.Regardless I couldn't help but feel this empty void in my heart when I didn't find him. The thought of calling him crossed my mind until I remembered he wasn't just my boyfriend but the CEO of Rogers Co. And to be honest, the latter mattered most than me."You are awake, sleepy head",Chica said pulling up a plate and laying two pieces of toast on it."I slept in, huh? What time is it?" I asked.I didn't just sleep in, I wanted to sleep all day just to avoid meeting up with Drizella. I wasn't scared of, I was a little nervous. I mean what would we talk about much less in a mall?I was bad at shopping, I had a poor choice on fashion let alone my own clothes so going shopping was the worst idea I could agree to."It's around nine. Sir left around six in the morning",Fey's voice ca

    I grabbed one of the guards' collars my anger flaring and my heart in chaos."He wasn't moving, Sir. He wasn't breathing! He pulled out a fast one on us, knocked down Luis and tried to attack me-and I-I"His hesitation made my heart pound even harder as I looked around the warehouse, dry blood on the floor from where Micheal Gibbins was tied up."You what? God damn it! You what?""I shot him"And my jaw dropped. He fucking shot Michael Gibbins? I clearly instructed them to watch him, to beat him up but not to the point of death. I wanted him to suffer and rot in this hell hole. To feel what Elle felt when he hit her.Luis and Carlos explained everything. Telling me the bastard had pulled the old 'i'm dead' trick to make them get his chains off. 'The bastard is still alive then if he managed to escape'I thought, running my fingers in my hair. What if he decided to go to Elle? The bastard knew everything, he knew I was the one behind this. What if he told Elle everything?I had looked

    ♪♪ Guess you were right to hide the way you feelWe keep pretending like it wasn't real ♪I reached for my phone buzzing against the nightstand throughout the silent room. I felt a migraine coming in, the minute I tried to wiggle my body out of the warm covers. My eyes fluttered open trying to spell out the name on my bright phone screen."Mrs Chang?" I mumbled sleepily.I swiped the screen to the green call button , pressing the phone to my right ear."Eleanor Gibbins?",a rather younger voice of a man asked from the other end of the line and I creased my brows in surprise "Yes. This is she. Why do you have Mrs Chang's phone?" I asked dumbfounded seating up and resting my back on the headboard.Flashes of what happened yesterday hit my head as fast as I could say one. I shouldn't have given in to Drizella's whims and joined her in drinking.God! How my head hurt!"Am her grandson and she has been trying to reach you since yesterday. Am sorry to be the bearer of bad news but somethin

    "You alright there buddy?" The bartender asked and I grinned sheepishly.I raised my left brow, scoffing at him as I took another gulp of the scotch. Two glasses weren't enough, I needed more. I needed something strong to make me forget the horrid feeling I had inside.I took one glance at her before I left the hospital and the image was still engraved in my mind. How red the tip of her nose was, how seconds after seconds her eyes filled with tears, how wet tears replaced the already dried tears on her cheek and how devastated she was at the thought of losing her uncle.I should have stayed, hugged her even, kissed her forehead and told her everything was going to be alright..But how was everything going to be alright when I am the one to blame and at the same time I wanted the man dead. Out of her life! He didn't deserve her tears! Eleanor shouldn't be worried about him! I shouted banging the glass on the hard counter so hard that it shattered and hurt my hand.I stared at it, the

    "You should go home, take a goodnight rest and we'll stay. We'll take turns in looking after him",Mrs Jenna had insisted empathetically.The doctor had informed us that they got the bullet out before any more vital organs could be damaged. Uncle Mike was going to live and I had vowed not to leave him until he woke up from his coma so when Mrs Jenna told me to go home, I couldn't."I'll stay", I had said quietly."You've not seen yourself in the mirror, have you? Eleanor you look terrible so terrible that your uncle would relapse into a coma again if he woke up and saw you", Drizella had chimed in comically.I said my goodbyes to Uncle Mike hugging him and promising him I would be back come the next day even though he couldn't hear me. The doctor said Uncle Mike had fought to stay alive all that was left for him, was to regain consciousness. I didn't lose hope. He was going to come to, in the next few days. I felt it.I knew it.And with high hopes, Martin had drove me, Chica and Fey h

    Epilogue"I really think we should stop!",Elle shrieked with laughter her hands trying to push me away.My hands cornered on my very desk as I gazed at her beauty. Eight years of marriage and three kids and she still looked the same to me."Do you really want me to stop?"I smirked tapping my fingers from her knee down down down her thigh.It was her fault anyway for coming to me dressed in that. She knew how much that dress was a turn on for me. I wanted nothing but to rip it off."Y-yes oooooh",she gasped the moment I ran my fingers at the outline of her panties."You should... should stop",her eyes stared at me,"remember last time we tried to make love in your office", she warned.My smile turned wicked. How could I forget. How could I forget the way everyone looked at me when I entered the conference room. I simply I had no words.What was a guy to do when our top most clients heard Elle and I moaning over the microphone?It was safe to say that that was the most embarrassing moment

    Good bye.I had watched blood drain from her face the instant I said that.Did I mean it though? I wish I did. I wish I ripped her out of my heart and this madness would end right there and then.I wish I wouldn't be so worried about how she was doing, about how she was. But what's done is done, there was no point of going back to the past.Letting go was a hard thing to do but it was for the best, for me and for her. I loved her, I loved her since we were kids that wouldn't change and even if I fell in love with someone else I think a part of me would always love Elle.She was my first love after all.On a casual Wednesday morning, I was in my office preparing for a meeting. I would fly to the Philippines next week to visit Mario and help him out with some of the issues he had been trying to handle himself.Drizella was quick to inform me that Mario had some issues but he was trying to be the big boy, trying to handle everything by himself so that he could not ask me for help.I coul

    He stoked a fire in me, he brought the other wild side of me. My body responded to his touch and my heart ooh my heart turned to jello the very instant he murmured my name like a Benediction.And when he kept on repeating the words 'I love you' with no shame hell I felt loved and God knows I wanted to say 'I love you too'.As I watched him sleep, his naked chest glistening against the morning's sunlight I realised I had feelings for this man. I thought I buried these feelings deep inside but here I was smiling amusedly at how handsome he looked while he was asleep.I didn't regret yesterday at the very least. I was supposed to but I didn't.Deep down when I imagined sex, Niklaus was the only man I was having sex with and not Rocco. I loved Rocco. I used to love Rocco but after everything that transpired yesterday that love seemed to simmer down quickly than steam.Was it possible to love two guys at the same time?With Rocco, he was the perfect man and I guess that's what I was lookin

    The light clearly starting to peer through the room made my eyes flutter open.I would have loved to stay in bed all day, to sleep with her all day. Yesterday was- I had always imagined us but yesterday couldn't compare to my day dreams.It was like in a moment, I was in heaven. In a dream even.When I saw the fear in her eyes yesterday as I tugged on the lace of her panties, I sure as hell knew that she hadn't slept with Rocco.And like a fool, I found myself grinning at that. I was the only supposed to touch her, I was the only supposed to be inside her.Once my head came to the conclusion that she was still a virgin, I tried my best not to ravish her immediately. I tried my best to be in control, to not be a caveman, to make sure that the night was perfect.To inscribe that night on her mind forever. And when I was inside of her, feeling her walls convulse around me, I wanted nothing but to come so hard.I restrained myself, I wanted her to reach her orgasm first. For her to have t

    After Rocco left me to sleep, I sat on my bed frustratedly. I simply couldn't wait for Isadora and Daniel's wedding to push through and I would leave home.I loved home, I really do but things were changing too fast. Rocco was changing too and I didn't like it one bit.I was bored infact that I started following the patterns on my floral pillows. Few minutes later, the pounding on the door grabbed my intention.The door suddenly opened and Issa popped her head in,"Can I come in?" She asked."Well your head is already in you might as well welcome your body in too", I humored.She trudged to my bed and carefully sat by the bedside. Then she narrowed her eyes at me her lips curling into a smile,"What?" I asked after a minute of piercing silence."Am just trying to figure out why you are mad and who you are mad at"What sort of question was that."You know very well why am mad. You all kept secrets from me. You know I hate secrets and am mad at all of you""It wasn't our secret to share

    "I think we are done for today, don't you think?" I grunted pushing the abdominal roller away.Ava sat on the mat looking rather disappointed and although I didn't want to intervene in her personal matters, I felt the need to.Since I went back for the equipment she had been acting strangely...well she did act strangely at times but she wasn't quite herself today.I sat on the mat next to her, my hands on my knees as I stared at her,"So...how was the date?"She rolled her eyes and I chuckled."That bad huh?" I asked.She quirked a brow turning her head so that we could be at a level with her."He lives with his mom",she grumbled."And that's bad because?""Are you seriously asking me that? He's a gamer, spends all his time playing videogames in his parents' basement. And before you ask, yes he told me all that""Atleast he is honest", I joked,"I mean he did come clean about his living situation""He is not my type, Niklaus. I just don't understand why all men can't be like you",she j

    Jealousy. Google described jealousy as the feeling or showing an envious resentment of someone or their achievements, possessions, or perceived advantages.I didn't know her nor of her achievements and possessions so there was no way I was jealous even though it took a couple of minutes for them to remember my presence in the room.After they parted from the hug, Niklaus turned to me paving way for me to get a glimpse of Ava clearly. She had an oval face, full lips, black hair that was tied up in a ponytail and don't get me started on her body. She was a ten over ten.I suspected she wasn't any of Niklaus' relatives otherwise I would have met her. And it really got me thinking how she got inside the house since there was a code to unlock the doors, unless she knew the code."Ava, this is-"I cut Niklaus off."I'm Isabella, nice to meet you", I greeted."You didn't tell me about her",Ava slapped his chest slightly and Niklaus laughed. He laughed.A whole thunderous chuckle when he was

    He was so irritating. I felt like smacking that smug of his face the minute he said 'I was his'.Just who did he think he was, he was crazy if he thought that I would kiss him in an instant. And dad! Ooh I was so mad at dad.Since when did he start liking Niklaus. They hated each other, well atleast I thought so. I trudged down the hallway remembering each room by heart.I remembered my old bedroom and just down the hall to the left was his room.The very same room where we lay together in each other's arms watching Stranger things. I found myself smiling recalling how he would ask what was so special with 'Steve Harrington'. Steve Harrington was everything to the female population. He was hot, funny and whoo don't get me started on his hair.I stood just outside my old room turning the knob and opening the door. Not only was the room clean but it was the same. As if I never left in the first place, I walked in closing the door behind me.The same vanity table, the same purple sheets

    I cringed feeling her tear up on my chest. I knew she would be stubborn but I hadn't expected her to cry. I expected her to hit me, to hurt me but not to cry.Though she did hurt me, I could feel the metallic taste of fresh blood on my mouth and my cheek was numb.She was really strong than she imagined.I run my fingers in her hair, feeling it's silkiness. She sniffled only to step away from me as if my touch was burning her."No",she wiped the tears on her cheeks with the back of her hand,"this isn't right"It's right, baby. Everything between us feels right. I haven't felt this way since you left.I wanted to tell her, to scoop her in my arms and tell her everything on my mind.Her eyes rose to meet mine and for a brief moment, I saw her gasp lightly."I did that?"She pointed to my face only then did I remember the little cut on my lip."It's not your fault. Don't mind it, I sort of deserved it", I chuckled trying to make her feel less guilty."Am not a monster like you, Niklaus.
