To be happy?

Mayeli kicked her legs back and forth in the pool, enjoying the feel of the cold water on her bare legs.“Do you mind sharing your story then?” She asked Killian.He remained silent for a moment, and she thought he wouldn't reply.“Do you really want to hear my story, it's quite boring”, Killian replied, running his hands through his rough, curly hair. His eyes were focused on the distance in front of them.“I want to hear it”.“Her name was Emma. We dated for three years, and we broke up two years ago. Emma was everything I wanted in a woman, physically and emotionally, and sometimes I wondered why she was with me. She was too good for me”.Mayeli tried to hide the burning feeling in her chest. Killian had a girlfriend after her? One he considered too good for him. She was jealous.“Then what happened?” Mayeli asked in a strained voice.“We loved each other very much, but I always felt something was missing. I felt like there was something I had left behind that I was meant to find.

Chapter Forty-Two

Killian stared at the chubby smiling man dressed in a black, expensive-looking Channel suit that was a bit too tight due to his protruding belly. Killian thought he could probably see his reflection in the man's black Firenze Atelier shoes that were published to a fault.“What are you doing here?” Killian asked, irritated.He and Mayeli were meant to be having their weekly meetings, but he was seeing someone else in her place.“I'm James a senior partner at JCK law firm. I will be replacing Mayeli as your company's legal representative”, the chubby man fumbled, with a nervous smile.“Why?” Killian asked, returning his eyes to the document in front of him. Did Mayeli quit her job without informing him?He had looked forward to this particular day of the week when she came to discourse business with him. He missed her melodious laughter and the way her green eyes gleamed when she was being serious. Why would she quit? He couldn't let her.“Mr Nixen said he would speak to you about that”

Chapter Forty-Three

Mayeli and Diora walked through the noisy crowd. They had come to chill out after the day's work. It was finally the weekend, and at least, they could get a little break.They were in Mayeli's favourite bar to grab a drink, and most importantly, she wanted to her best friend Bryelle's father. She didn't want to joke about the unknown or Killian’s threat.They managed to find a seat in front of the young, handsome bartender who kept staring at Mayeli.“What can I offer the two beautiful women in front of me?” The young man asked with a smile.Diora ordered a glass of Brandy, while Mayeli ordered a whiskey. She needed all the courage she could get tonight.When the drinks came, Diora took a sip of her Brandy and turned to Mayeli. “What exactly did you want to tell me, Bess?”Mayeli took a deep and looked around the bar. It was filled with young blood, drinking, dancing, watching naked strippers on the dance floor, and having more fun.“I want to tell you who Bryelle’s father is”, Mayeli

Chapter Forty-Four

PhoneMayeli pulled her hands away from Killian’s hold. “Let go of me!”She yelled, drawing a little stare their way.He ignored her and continued walking until he reached his black Rolls-Royce Phantom. When they reached, he let go of her hands, and turned to her, anger written on his face.“What do you think you're doing?” He asked angrily.“I should be asking you” that!” Mayeli retorted, equally angry. What the hell did he think he was doing when he dragged her out here?“You shouldn't be going around giving random guys your number when you have a boyfriend”.Mayeli rolled her eyes, surprised. Why did Killian care about who or not gotten her number?“It's none of your business”, Mayeli mumbled. “It's my business when it involves my brother!”“What are you trying to be now, your brother's keeper?Killian’s perfect features twisted into a frown, and he looked like he was about to give her an angry rebuff when his ringing phone interrupted him. He gave Mayeli a last glare before he t

Chapter Forty-Five: Slight hint

Truce typed in the door code, and the huge, glass door slipped open. Mayeli was still marvelled at how huge and lovely Killian and his friend’s house was, though it was her fourth time being there.“Come in”, Killian said, pulling her with him. He was holding her hands, wow.He had taken off his suit jacket and his tie, leaving only his white shirt. The first four buttons of his shirt were left undone, showing off his well-built chest, and hairy chest.Mayeli kept reminding herself that she was here on a mission, and she could not fall for Killian’s very tempting body, though she gladly would.They stepped into the large, breathtaking living room. The interior decoration had been redone, Mayeli noticed. The walls were now painted a deep shade of charcoal green and cream. White sofas with green pillows were carefully arranged, and cream curtains hung on the windows. The house looked heavenly.“Hey Mayeli”, Tyse said, rising from one of the sofas with a surprised smile on his handsome f

Chapter Forty-Six: And why is it?

Mayeli silently followed Killian to the kitchen. When they reached, he opened the door and headed straight for the cupboard, he was ignoring her. From how precisely his hands moved, putting out pans and all, she was sure he cooked often, which was quite surprising.Her gaze strayed to the kitchen island where he had kept his phone, and she thought of how to get to the phone without him noticing.His kitchen was spacious and lovely. The walls were painted sparkling white, and three small, golden chandeliers hung from the ceiling. In the middle of the kitchen was a large cabinet with its top painted white, and the body painted a dark shade of green, and three white chairs were arranged around it. All other shelves in the kitchen were also painted dark green, matching the rest of the house. A part of the kitchen wall, overlooking the garden, was transparent, giving a breathtaking view.“What do you want to eat?” Killian asked, finally breaking the silence.“I don't have anything in min

She was going crazy right now.She tried to tell herself she had no right to be jealous, but it didn't make her feel any better.Mayeli had been going through Killian's phone, looking for clues that would point to the fact that Killian was the man behind the blackmailing text messages, but she had found none.

Chapter Forty-Eight: Follow your heart 

Mayeli increased the volume of Built To Be Bad by Grace Gachot and Alex playing in Truce’s white Bugatti Centodieci. At the moment, she resonated well with the song.“Who was that we saw on our way out?” Mayeli asked Truce. A professional-looking middle-aged man had walked past them when they were leaving the house.“His therapist”, Truce replied simply. Killian had a therapist?Truce threw Mayeli a side glance which she gladly ignored. After a while, he let out a sigh, and turned off the music.“What?” Mayeli mumbled, feeling exhausted.“Can I ask why you both are hell bent on denying the intense feeling you have for each other?” Truce asked.Mayeli looked away. “What feelings?”“Mayeli”.“He might not like me. I might like him so much, but he doesn’t feel the same way about”, Mayeli said, letting out a doubt she had long been holding on to.Truce gave her a look that said “Have you gone crazy?” “Mayeli, I have never seen Zed look at any woman the way he looks at you. I once thought

Chapter Forty-Nine

Three daysKillian stared at the glass of water in front of him as he contemplated on his therapist, doctor Ron’s question.“What happened, Killian?” Doctor Ron repeated.Killian sipped his water, before looking up at Doctor Ron. “We had a fight”.“And why does that bother you so much to the point of making you throw a tantrum and have nightmares?”“Fuck, I don't know”.“Do you have feelings for this woman, Mayeli? Only that would explain why you're so hurt about fighting with her”.Killian stared at the huge, golden Rolex wall clock in his study. At the moment, he was willing to accept that what he felt for Mayeli was more than just mere sexual attraction. He liked her, and as much as he hated to admit, he liked her a lot. “I like her”, he replied simply. “But she's with Nixen, and I don't want to hurt him”.Doctor Ron took off his glasses, revealing a pair of dreamy amber eyes. For a man of fifty-one, he had a very strong and athletic body. “I see that makes everything complicated”

“Mom?” Bryelle called, pulling Mayeli out of her thoughts. Her mother threw her an assessing glance. “Is something wrong, Mayeli?” She asked.“No, I'm fine, Mom. What were you saying Bryelle?”“I asked if we could invite Uncle Killian to dinner tonight?” Bryelle repeated.Mayeli choked on the orange juice she had just been about to swallow. “What did you say?”“She asked if Killian could eat dinner with us tonight”, Mayeli's Mom, Elle repeated, scolding Mayeli with her gaze.Mayeli dutifully looked away from her mom. “He can't come for dinner, baby”, Mayeli said to Bryelle.“But he's lonely, Mom”, Bryelle said with a pout.Mayeli gasped in shock. “How do you even know that?”“He told me”, Bryelle replied.She needed to have a conversation with Killian. Why would he go around telling a three-year-old that he was lonely? Besides he had friends so why was he even lonely?“When did you both have this conversation?” Mayeli asked, fuming. She could hear her mother snickering beside her. M
