Chapter Sixty-Nine

CHAPTER SIXTY-NINE*So that means it's just going to be the two of us...*"I love the surprise on your face." She grinned at him.He chuckled. "Well, I can't help it. How were you able to convince your father that fast? I'm dying to know." He folded his muscular arms against his broad chest, hard biceps flexing viciously. Distracted by the tantalizing view, Janice swallowed a lump in her dry throat. Fuck! She was dying to dig her nails into his strong arms. She forced her gaze back up to his face and gave him a tight-lipped smile, hoping that he didn't catch her eyeballing him again."Well, it wasn't much of a big deal. I just had to reinstate the fact that I am a grown-ass woman who can make decisions that concern her well-being without necessarily seeking validation from her father. And I promised him I was gonna be alright." She shrugged, gesturing her hands expansively as she explained.He pressed his lips and simply nodded."That's great. So you told him about me?". Her brow

Chapter Seventy

CHAPTER SEVENTY *She Can't wait to see him in action again. *By the time she returned to the residence it was already 9 am.She had insisted on jogging back to the house. Today was a challenge after all for her! Although, she wanted to take a short stroll to the stables to give a helping hand to Drake in walking the horses but he vehemently refused and insisted she retired to the house and have a proper rest before horse riding with her father. It's been a while since her last horse riding exercise. She's kind of nervous and anxious that she may fuck it up and make a mess. But Drake was sweet enough to reassure her that she would do absolutely just fine."Is that what is getting you so worked up?" he chuckled amusingly."but I can't help it! I haven't been horse riding in ages especially since you vanished. I feel like my childhood trauma of horses is creeping back to me." she whined, pouting her lips like a child.He chuckled, his ocean blue eyes dancing as he reached for her s

Chapter Seventy-One

CHAPTER SEVENTY-ONE *Horse keeper getting set! *Clad in his esquire apparels, he plodded the hilly paths unto the stables. He was dressed in plain combat jeans, a cotton long-sleeved shirt, and leather boots. His cowboy hat gave it a final touch of Scottish countryside style, making him a typical handsome Scottish horse keeper. The sun was glowing in the bright blue sky dotted with silver clouds floating around the sky. The stables came into his line of vision and he whistled. He paused to catch his breath and stretched. After a long while, he is finally doing his actual job- horse riding with the jordans. He flexed the muscles in his neck, making it snap as he rubbed on it rapidly. He sighed deeply and opened the wooden barn door into the stables. Startled by the abrupt noise of the wooden door giving way, the horses started neighing in response. The horses were lined out chronologically in their respective stalls. "Alright, ladies and gentlemen, It's time for a little b

Chapter Seventy-Two

CHAPTER SEVENTY-TWO *The Scottish sexy Horse keeper! *Roughly ten minutes later, the white-coloured Hilux squealed to a halt, startling the poor horses which were neighing in response, in front of the stables where Drake was already waiting. Momentarily, The passenger's car door flung open, revealing Mr Jordan dressed in brown denim jeans and a polo T-shirt with a white baseball cap. He also wore dark shades and hiking boots. He held his breath as the other passenger's door tugged open. She hopped down with a little difficulty, adjusting her jeans. She wore black denim jeans buckled with a leather belt and a V-neck-shaped polo T-shirt and knee-height dress boots. She pushed the car door closed and came to her father's side and they both held hands while walking towards the stables. In a closer view, he could make out that her blonde hair was pulled back up into a sleek low bun. Thus, accentuating her oval-shaped face. Damn, she looked more breathtaking and absolutely gorgeo

Chapter Seventy-Three

CHAPTER SEVENTY-THREE *Her childhood Trauma*"Wait a minute, Are you serious?!" Mr. Jordan nodded, smiling widely. "101%. Don't tell me you forgot?" She swallowed with confusion furrowing her brows. "but I do remember, as clear as day, that the incident happened when I was eighteen years old. I can never forget that. I never realized I gave her a name. I must have been..." her voice faltered. How could she forget the day she broke a leg? The day she nearly gave up on walking ever again? The very day she saw her life slipping out of her very hands. She was helpless and miserable. The day she thought she was done for. She had never been more afraid! That day is ingrained in her memory like a marking that has been stamped in her head with a permanent marker. An indelible mark. Her father smiled at her ruefully, clamping a gentle hand on her shoulder. "I understand love. You were so traumatized by the incident that you forgot. I'm sorry to dig up some bad memories for you. I didn

Chapter Seventy-Four

CHAPTER SEVENTY-FOUR *Focus Drake, Focus! *"I will not take it lightly this time. If any harm comes to my daughter, I will fire you immediately! Is that clear?" his voice was brusque and menacing. His dark shades were still on so Drake couldn't make out his expression. Although he suspected that Mr Jordan would react this way following the horse fall mishap that happened to Janice recently, however, he was a little taken aback by his words. Apparently, Mr Jordan doesn't look like he gave a damn about him playing the hero two weeks ago. His daughter's safety is of paramount importance to him and he's willing to fire him if the need arises. Talk about being hyper-protective! Under normal circumstances, he would have simply walked out without looking back, but he simply can't afford to sabotage his family's plans of revenge. Mr Jordan deserves every bad thing coming to him for all the pain he had caused his family. For his father's untimely death. For his mother's sickness, su

Chapter Seventy-Five

CHAPTER SEVENTY-FIVE *She has the generational Jordan's blood coursing through her veins for fuck's sake! *In a swift and efficient grip, he held her waist and mounted her unto the saddle of the horse. The horse snorted softly, wagging her tail. Her breath hitched in her throat as she held unto the reins with all her might. Drake noticing her discomfort whispered to her, "Are you okay?" She swallowed thickly and nodded, her hands still clutching the reins. What is this sudden fear gripping her? Is her Childhood trauma coming back to hunt her again? No! Today was supposed to be a challenge and not fear. She already vowed that she would own up to the task and ride a horse by herself today. Nothing is going to stop her now! Not even her past! Besides, Drake is right here by herself. No harm will come to her. A warm hand clasped hers and she jolted in alarm, almost tripping off the horse. Instantly, Drake's strong hands on her waist steadied her on the horse. She looked do

Chapter Seventy-Six

CHAPTER SEVENTY-SIX *Blame it on sex deprivation! *They kicked the horses into a slow gait as they cantered down the hilly path overlooking the small waterfall. The beautiful brightly-colored prunus Kanzan trees swayed in the late afternoon, glowing with splendor. The late afternoon breeze wafted over them. Her Dad, Mr. Jordan was ahead of them. She turned to steal a glance at Drake. He was so relaxed on a horse as they rode at a sauntering pace. He was an expert as he held on to the horse's reins with just one powerful hand. Very attractive and charming as he let his free hand run through his messy sandy hair. Sturdy biceps curved beneath the cotton shirt. As he raised his hand, letting it comb through his hair, his sweaty armpit soaking his shirt around that area, escaped into her view before it disappeared from her line of sight as he dropped his hand again. It was not only the armpit areas. The skin on the back of his neck glistened in sweat too. Damn! The sweat ma

Chapter Seventy-Seven

CHAPTER SEVENTY-SEVEN *Why are these men trying so hard to prevent her from having a good time?*What the hell is she suggesting? Don't tell me she wants to venture for a steady lope with the mare? Which, as a matter of possibility will expose him to the risk of losing his job as Mr Jordan rightly stated earlier. And losing his job is not an option right now. A whole lot that mattered to him is banking on this. His family. His late father. Even his mother. Ah, of course, he suspected this after all. It's been ages, so it is expected that she would want to plunge into doing daredevil fits with the horse for the sake of making up for the long lost time. Hopefully, this will enable the opportunity for her childhood trauma to fizzle out gradually. He sucked in the late afternoon humid air into his nostrils and released them. "But it can be dangerous riding that fast with your mare. Besides, you still need some time to get used to it. This is for the best for now." He heard her

Chapter Seventy-Eight

CHAPTER SEVENTY-EIGHT *Her eighteenth birthday party*Hailey's flying lead change was seamless and she instantly flipped to the opposite lead, snorting in delight. They moved smoothly and speedily. The wind beat so mercilessly against her face and hair that her bun came undone and as a result, thick strands of rich blonde hair cascaded down her shoulders and teased her face as the wind blew against it, blurring her vision. Shit! Hailey is taking a full bolt and the path they descended unto was rather rocky and uneven, causing her to jerk violently on the horse. She clutched the reins with her all the strength she could muster, fearing for her life and in that instance, her childhood trauma came creeping up on her again. Her heart thumped so loudly against her ribcage that she had to part her mouth to accommodate faster pants. She did not have the strength and stamina to check if she was being followed or trailed by Drake or her father. Her mare took off at an alarming speed.
