Chapter 31

Lisa It had been on my mind ever since the very second Jerome's car appeared on the road. How had he found me? Was he some sort of psychic? My curiosity was above the roof, and I needed answers to quench it. He was always around somewhere to save me, it was becoming scary, and while I was grateful for him, I still wanted answers. "I was driving back to the city, we met by complete coincidence." He answered sharply. "There's not exactly anything special this time around, and stop thinking I'm a hero already." I smiled at his last words, he had read my mind, and once again I had turned red like a cherry. I needed to learn how to control my emotions around Jerome. My feelings were always all over the place when he was around, and it was embarrassing to say the least. "Thank you for everything, Jerome." I said for the umpteenth time. I could tell Jerome was already tired of hearing me say thank you every two minutes, but I just couldn't help myself. He was a good man, and I just

Chapter 32

Kylan I could tell Lisa hadn't been happy when she saw that we would be staying at a hotel. And while it would take me nothing to take us both to one of the penthouses I had already purchased in the city, I didn't want to do so. Some of them had important documents and information that I wanted to keep away from Lisa. And another problem was that I didn't have helps in any of those houses. It was majorly the reason why I stayed at hotels often. I didn't have the time nor strength to do house chores, and I was not about to subject a convalescent to such manual labor. With a smile, I led her in and we both checked into the best rooms they had available. I wanted to make sure that she was comfortable, she needed all the rest she could get to make a full recovery. I ordered dinner for us, and helped Lisa change out of her hospital clothes. Since she didn't have clothes with her, she had to wear my own clothes, and while they were two times her normal size, she didn't have much of a cho

Chapter 33

Katarina A week had passed since I was discharged from the hospital, and while I had found a new apartment a bit closer to my place of work, I continued to spend most of my time with Jerome at his hotel room. He was sweet and kind, and he wouldn't let me go home, not until he was sure that I was free of danger. He was the sweetest man alive, and I couldn't help but fall for him deeper every passing day. It was bad for me, I knew that, but I still wanted to try it out. I have never known love, I've never had a chance to taste what love really was, perhaps this was my chance, my only chance. I wanted to enjoy it while it lasted, this could be my first and last time falling in love, so why not risk it? The experience was definitely worth it, and the memories too. Even if we somehow managed to go our separate ways, I was certain that I would never forget the time and memories I had created with Jerome. He was my first love, and I heard that the first ones were always the hard

Chapter 34

Katarina I continued my shift while doing my best to ignore the glances that came from Christopher every now and then. Even though Ella was doing her best to keep him occupied, his eyes only seemed to follow me, and while the others seemingly saw it as a flex, it was very disturbing to me, especially after everything I'd experienced with men staring at me like that. It always started like this, the uncanny stares and smiles, and then it escalates to being stalked, and afterwards harassment. I was done with all of that, and I didn't want to deal with it anymore. I was prepared this time, armed for any inconvenience that anybody might cause me. I'd rather lose my life than have to go through any mental or physical torture ever again. "He's really not letting anyone else get his attention, girl what did you do to that man?" Ella asked with a proud smile smeared across her face. All of this was amusing to her, and I really couldn't blame her for not being scared that the only perso

Chapter 35

Kylan I stared at Lisa with half dazed eyes, unsure if I should take her words seriously or not. It wasn't the first time a woman had said those words to me, and I knew it wasn't going to be the last. I was good at making people say a lot of things in bed, and this could have been one of those instances. This was her first time experiencing real sex, so the chances that she had been high on the pleasure were even higher. In response to her words, I gave her a comforting smile before finally kissing her on the lips. She was shy, and it was completely natural, and she didn't look like she was in desperate need for me to return those words, so I lifted myself from the couch before heading into the shower. I stood still as the cold water ran down my skin. Those words she had said, they should have meant nothing to me, yet I couldn't get it out of my head. Why couldn't I stop thinking about it? Was it because I had been the one to deflower her? Or could it be because we'd been spending

Chapter 36

Katarina My heart skipped a beat the moment I heard Jerome say those words. Time seemed to have stopped, and for a full thirty seconds I completely forgot how to breathe. I didn't know how to react, I didn't know what to say or do. All I could do was stare at him with wide eyes while my cheeks slowly turned beet red. Certain that I was having a shock attack, Jerome leaned in and unfroze me with a kiss. "Are you alright?" He asked after the warmth of his lips had departed from mine. Sharply I nodded. "Yes, I..I'm fine." I added before turning my eyes away like a fan girling teenager. Jerome chuckled softly as his hand gently tilted my chin back so that I had no option than to look at him. "You don't have to be embarrassed, you know. I've wanted to say that for a long time." His words made my heart flutter even more, and my body became hot just by hearing him add more substance to those words. Had I been the one keeping him waiting all this while without even realizing it

Chapter 37

Kylan Lisa was being distracted by someone or something, I could tell just by staring at her. Even though she was doing her best to focus her attention on me, her eyes betrayed her by casually darting between me and whatever was making her feel so uneasy and uncomfortable. I couldn't see anything from where I sat, and it was slowly beginning to get to my nerves. Someone was clearly making Lisa lose herself both physically and mentally, and I was not about to let it go without doing something. "What are you doing, Jerome?" Lisa interrupted just as I was about to stand from my seat. "I said it wasn't something serious, please don't bring any more attention to us." She pleaded. Reluctantly, I settled back on my seat, but my curiosity was still at its peak. Lisa on the other hand focused her attention on me solely this time. I could still tell that she was anxious, but she did her best to hide it. After a few minutes, she excused herself and headed towards the bathroom. I wanted to f

Chapter 38

KatarinaMy relationship with Jerome had remained nothing short of breathtaking, and although he was out of town at the moment, the passion between us hadn't dwindled a bit. Everything was going smoothly, and I hadn't seen Christopher since the day at the cafe. Things were gradually returning to normal, and everything seemed to be going smoothly until it wasn't. I walked into the bar and immediately locked eyes with Christopher sitting at the corner. It had been three days now since I last saw him, and I was hoping he had moved out of the country or returned to wherever he had come from. However, those wishes of mine had not been granted because he was staring right back at me with a wry smile spread across his face.I ignored him and walked past without casting him another glance. I was hoping he'd sit put, but he didn't. He rose from his seat, and without care for my personal space he approached me. "Long time no see, Lisa." He greeted me with a smile, one that I managed to mirr

Chapter 39

KylanI had only been gone for two days, but it felt like I had spent eternity apart from Lisa. I craved her company more than I had imagined, and it had become impossible for me to go to bed without thinking about her. I was doing my best to stop all of my recent obsession with her, but the harder I tried, the worse it became, and it was slowly beginning to drive me insane.These feelings weren't supposed to be real, they weren't real, and I refused to believe that any of it was real. There was no way I was actually in—"Are you okay, dude?" Cole's voice pulled me away from my thoughts and back to reality. "You've been distracted all day, is everything alright?" "I'm fine, don't worry about me. What were you saying again?" I assured, and although Cole didn't exactly believe my words, he went ahead to continue what he had been saying before I lost touch with reality."I'm suggesting that it's time you get married. You know getting a wife would solidify your claim to your family's wea

Chapter 40

KylanAfter five full days of not being with Lisa, I finally gave in to my desperation. It felt like hell living without her, and the phone calls and text messages just weren't enough for me. "You're leaving already? We're yet to conclude the contract with Black industries, what should I do about it?" Cole inquired, alarmed by the sudden change in plans. I was supposed to stay for at least one week, but I didn't think I'd be able to survive another night without Lisa being in my arms. I couldn't sleep, not without thinking of her for at least an hour. And I couldn't concentrate fully at work either. All I could think of was Lisa, and it was driving me insane. "You're my best friend, Cole, I trust you can handle everything in my absence." I returned, but Cole was not satisfied with such a bland answer. "Why the sudden change in plans? Did something urgent come up?" He demanded with an arched brow, he clearly had questions, and he wanted answers. However, I was not about to let
