Sleep over

SHELDON Thunderstorms clapped outside and I got tired of observing it from the window. It's evening time and the skies are dark. It has been raining for the past thirty minutes and Denzel wasn't home yet. He hasn't answered any of my calls or messages. I was curious about how it went with his dad. At that moment, I heard the doorbell ring. I glanced at my cat who was curled up at a corner of the living room. I hope Denzel's ready to behold his cuteness.It took him long enough. But why would he ring the doorbell when this is his place?I left to open the door. I was expecting to see his gloomy self-standing on the other side but to my surprise, more than two pair of eyes were looking back at me — three men dressed in formal outfits. Their suits spoke volumes just like Denzel's style of dressing. This fact was the reason I didn't slam the door and ran for my life. I instantly recognized them as the dashing friends in his file. I had to know in case his family brought it up during t

Sunday morning

SHELDON I hated to break it to myself that this miserable night wasn't over. I was still in this house with four annoying guys, a heavy rain going on outside, and an overbearing cousin. Winter suggested she shares her business card with Denzel's friends because it was rare to see sons from wealthy homes in one place. If they ever needed girls for parties, Winter wanted to be the one on speed dial. For her not to humiliate me more, I escorted her to the living room, hating the look from Denzel. He forgets that things are so not cool between us. "...Trust me, my nightclub is the best in this city. I also got the prettiest girls for any service you desire." She said passing the cards to Soren, Gil, and Justin.I didn't know this was how it works and we get clients regularly. She actually straight-up tells people she is a hooker? "Expect my call. That's a promise." Justin stated as he put the card carefully in his breast pocket. "Thank you." Winter smiled warmly before giving me a p

Cousin Hunter

I was enraged when Denzel woke me up and let me know that we had arrived at the church. My eyes were heavy and wanted more rest. I sat up and yawned with my arms stretching toward the roof of the car. When I opened my eyes after a few blinks, Denzel was observing me with an awkward look."What?" I blurted."I have one final request..." He checked his side of the window before turning back to me. "Do not sleep in church." "I'm only human. I can't control how tired I feel." "Considering your type of work, you shouldn't have any problem with being awake. Just imagine you have an early exam right after a night with a client—"I placed a finger over his lips to shut him up. "Living with you is more exhausting than working." "I'm serious, Sheldon. You can't sleep for the next three hours. I should have hid those drinks from you." I flipped; "And let me guess, it's all because of your mother. Your precious golden mom must validate me or there will be chaos." I dramatically rambled. He

Night Out

"I need to get you home." Those were the last 'calm' words Denzel said to me at his parent's house before we returned to his house. The rest of our dialogue was 'unfriendly'. He was pissed and wished I didn't do that in front of his parents. I felt bad about my outburst too mostly because Mr. Morgan and Hunter were there to see my downfall. Although, I'll rise again."You're being pissed over nothing. I bet your mom you're so worried about doesn't care about what you do with your life." I snapped when the door closed behind us. "That's the other way round." Objected Denzel as he stands close to the wall."Since she already hates me, let's cut off this engagement. But just know, I'm keeping the rings." I blustered."She doesn't hate you." He responded so differently than how he was feeling in the car. He looked defeated."You're lying. I'm a woman, I know the looks in her eyes whenever she looks at me." "Well, you've got nothing to worry about, princess. This engagement is only be

Painting Room

"This piece of art is beautiful," Hunter mentioned as his hand touched one of the paintings by the side. The woman in the painting was on her fours with her back arched low and her behind stretching upward to the thighs of the man behind her. Her face was filled with both pain and pleasure. It's so heavy on her that I felt it just by looking at her. And the one filled with so much passion and emotions was the one Hunter thinks is 'beautiful'. How dare he? "Which one is your favorite, Sheldon?" He asked pointing at them.I drawled close to him and gazed at the paintings. "That one." It was a drawing of a woman lying by the side of the bed and awaiting her lover."I see you don't like all the dirty stuff, huh?" He teased. "I really don't know." I restricted myself from being an open book especially when I know he could implicate me. "That's fine. You like what you like. Sometimes it's hard for me to control what I feel. Too much passion so that's why I prefer the images showing m

Tense Shoulders

"Sheldon, you really know how to dress for a spin in your car." He commented, his eyes flickering over me.I made a faux smile. "I drove to a nightclub because I needed to speak to Winter." "Oh, the same Winter you brought in here last night." He rolled his eyes and leaned on my doorframe. "My friend likes her." "I don't believe that." Denzel cleared his throat before offering in a silky voice; "Need help removing that dress? Although, you can wear it all night." I scoffed. "Why are you suddenly flirting with me? What did that nurse do to you?" "The nurse doesn't even work on Sundays." He burst my bubble most shockingly."Nice move. You made me talk like a crazy woman." I groused kicking my shoes off while I sit on the bed. I really thought he was with her throughout today.His phone started vibrating in his pocket and he slipped it out."This must be a joke. Hunter is calling me. That punk never calls me..." He mumbled.I felt a lurch in my stomach and it was as if a timer was a

Sister Inlaw

I woke up on the couch still surrounded by clothes. That was enough to make me less stressed. Denzel was still home. I had hopes of meeting him and maybe, apologizing once more but those thoughts were dashed when I went up to his room and I heard skins slapping and low moans from whomever the girl he brought home was. They were still on it, even up to this morning? I wondered if he remembered he had work to go to. I retreated to the door and left. I didn't drive. Taking a taxi might distract me from grilling about Denzel all day because I'll be using his gift — the car to move around.I arrived at the boutique. I wasn't expecting to see Lena already waiting for me. I guessed she really wanted to meet me."Hi, Lena. It's so good to see you." I gushed. "Likewise." She smiled."I think you'll love our newest arrivals." The sales representative took her to the collection and I stood aside, watching her pick the most expensive ones and of course, her preference."I'm so happy you're ok

Business Trip

I sat on the chair, waiting for Denzel to come. Rehan's house was more homely than I thought. There were toys everywhere and framed baby photos of their kids hanging on all sides of the wall. I was offered wine but declined because I had enough at the house party. I picked up my phone and scrolled through the photos Denzel and i took at the bridge. They were so stunning, I was starting to think I could be a model. "Sheldon, she wants to see you." Rehan said standing at the landing of the stairs. Mutely, I followed him up to Lena's room. She was lying on the bed, wasted and her face dug on the mirror."Are you alright?" I asked softly and she grabbed my wrist."My earrings. I put them in your purse when we were still at the house. Can I have them back?" She asked stretching her hand.I nodded and checked my purse. Her diamond earrings were in there. I took them and put it back in her palm."Here you go." I said smiling at her."I'm going to be In so much trouble." She chuckled mania

Unforgiving

His silence was only for a second before the sound of his phone ringing blared out the awkward atmosphere.He excused himself to take the call. I was relieved that he didn't expose us."Nice talk. I'll see you around, Sheldon." The ex cheerfully said before leaving. I gathered my stuff and left the beach as well. On getting to the reception with Denzel, we both received gift bags from the staff. I was excited and couldn't wait to see what was in them.At the suite, I had already emptied my gift bag on the bed to see the items. It was a body spray, some towels and golden earrings."This is what I got. What about yours?" I asked Denzel when he sat still watching me."I don't know. I haven't checked." He breathed out."Fine, let me check them, then." I offered reaching for his bag."You can have it. Whatever is In there." He suddenly said, sounding cold and irritated."I didn't want to have them. I just wanted to see what's inside.""You've had my father, my cousin, what is stopping you

Pool party

"This is stupid, I shouldn't be taken your damn advice. I don't know if this meeting and trips is worth the risk and time." Denzel complained as we went to the conference hall together. He was dressed in his formal suit and ready to go with his phones and laptop in his hand.Last night was difficult to live through considering what's going on in his office."Trust me on this. You're making the right decision. Your father should be man enough to control things while you're not there." I encouraged."I turned my phone on silent so that I wouldn't get his phone calls about arresting you." He grumbled."You should know he has always wanted me out of his family. We can't blame him." I replied, grinning.The meeting started and like a champ, Denzel convinced the team to invest in his new project. For the first time in a while, I was happy to be his fiance. When the meeting was over, I didn't expect Denzel to hug me tightly because of how successful it went.A few days later, we were on our
