11 | MILES and MR STARK

“It kinda sucks that it’s your birthday and you’re not here,” I rolled my eyes at Indra. Out of all the times, she’d chose now to do a video call when I can’t even find my iPods. I yawned, as I looked through the available fridge to see if there’s anything I can eat. “It’s just another day, Indra,” I murmured, frowning when I realised that we’re not in Mr Stark’s apartment and there’s room service. “Ugh, there’s nothing to eat here,” I slumped on the isle stood, grabbing the phone. My heart almost jumps out of my chest when Mr Stark suddenly appears in the doorway. “Indra, let me-“ “This is the first time we’re apart on our birthdays,” Indra said quietly. “You said you’d come back in a week. Two weeks’ over now,” “Something came up,” I said. “I have to do something important today in London,” I refused to look at Mr Stark’s naked torso as he leaned against the doorway, looking at me. He’s doing this on purpose. “You’r

“You did great,” Ludo says, standing next to me. “Seriously, you were bitch and badass in there. Honestly, no one’s ever talked to father that way,” he said. “It was hilarious,” I grabbed my phone, dialling Indra’s number. “Are you okay?” “Why wouldn’t I be?” I casted him a look, placing the phone to my ear. “I mean, after what happened in there,” he inquired. “Is there a room I can use?” I asked him, looking around. “Yeah, over there,” he pointed at the door, opposite the boardroom. “No one uses it,” I hurried to the said room just as Indra picked up my call.“Hi,”“Hey,” I let out a heavy breath, sinking on the floor, my heart still hammering. I can’t believe I just did that. “Uh…can you-“ I sucked in a sharp breath. “I think I’m about to have a panic attack,” I said leaning my head back. “I just need to hear your voice,” I let out shakily. “Okay, uhm…” Indra is quiet and fo

“You have everything?” Ludo inquired, packing the last bag. “I think so,” I said turning to him. He smiled at me, though I could tell he was sad. “Thanks for dropping me off,” I looked back to Mr Stark’s private plane, waiting for me. They’d already boarded the plane and were now waiting for me. Ludo didn’t say anything, looking anywhere but my way. Judging from the way his fists clenched and unclenched, the way his chest rose and fell rapidly, and the constant blinking, he was on the verge of tears. His injured arms was limp on his side. I pulled him for a hug, having to stand on my toes to accommodate his height. He stiffened against my arms, but relaxed a moment later, his arms tightening around me. “Careful, your arm,” I said almost breathlessly because of how tight he was holding me. Ludo shook his head against my neck, and I can’t argue with him. He sniffled, his body shaking against mine. “Tell them,” I whispered, tightening

“No! This is not practical. Let it go,” “No! you need these shoes. It’ll match your suits,” Indra argued, snatching the shoe from my hand. “It is practical. You just don’t have style,” she glared at me. “But you literary just bought six shoes,” I said pointing at the pile of boxes waiting for us. “You need more shoes, Miles,” she said. “Oh my God, why did I bring you here?” I laughed in disbelief as she shoved the shoes onto the existing pile. The workers eyed us, amused by the argument. It has been like that from store to store. As soon as we got back from the bank, we’d immediately went for Indra’s favourite shoes. The ones that had been trending on TikTok. The Jimmy Choo bow heels. I had seen another pair that I quite liked and bought them for her. Needless to say, she’d made a spectacle of us. She literary walked out of the store hugging one shoe, and if the workers didn’t see us pay, they’d think she’d stolen the shoe. For the first half of the shopping trip, we’d f

15 | MR STARK

(This is a little after Miles gets drunk, the night they had sex for the first time. It’s more like a flashback in Mr Stark’s POV, because obviously Mr Tipsy doesn’t remember shit). “Anthony, this is pointless,” I murmured even though I made no move to pull away. “You’re the one that left me, remember?” I looked into his eyes. Once upon a time, I’d fallen in love with those eyes. I’d fallen in love with a man who couldn’t love. He’d convinced himself that he was too broken to love and be loved. Once upon a time, I used to believe in love. Now… Now it feels like I’m a walking shell that can only be satisfied with sex and nothing but sex. Perhaps, I’m the broken one. Our families were very close when we were little. My father and his father were inseparable, to say the least. Automatically, I’d gravitated towards Anthony, completely smitten by his typical badass attitude and wittiness. Even when he was young, he didn’t take shit from anyone. He knew

16 | MR STARK

(Continuation of the last chapter. I wanted to include a little fluffy angst at the beginning, seeing as the characters have never considered all this before, so it’d look weird when they just go for it. I wanted them to warm up to each other before doing the deed. Also, I just wanted to introduce you more into Mr Stark’s life and how he perceives things. After all, he’s not a bad guy. Motherfucker’s just heartbroken and cranky. That’s all. I think. Anywho…smut ahead. Shit is about to get real.) “Miles, if we don’t stop-“ “I don’t want to stop,” he said against my lips before quickly reattaching his lip, kissing me harder. “Please, I don’t want to stop,” he pulled back to look into my eyes, panting. “You’re sure?” he nodded quickly as my legs hit the edge of the bed. My bed. “Let me hear you say it,” “I don’t want to stop,” he said. I bent down to place him on the bed, going around to grab a condom. He followed me with his eyes un

(Back to the present, at the club, where Mr Stark wanted to talk to Mr Kendrick) “Okay, I can stay a few minutes, but I’m having crisis in here, so I’m meeting someone. I can spare a few minutes, until he gets here,” Liam says closing the door to his office. I round the table to sit down on his chair. He doesn’t object to that and instead plants his ass on the side of the table, one leg probed up. “What if I told you I had a crush on you?” I blurted. Liam blinks for a few seconds before bursting into laughter. “Motherfucker don’t play with me like that,” he said shaking his head. “Start talking before I have to go,” “Okay,” I said my mind taking me back to Miles. Fuck, he looks good in all black. An outfit so simple had managed to rile me up. “I know you probably don’t know this, but I’m asking because you were once dating, you know,” I began. “When does sex feel different?” a few seconds pass, bleeding into a minute and I finally look up at

“This is ridiculous,” I grumbled under my breath, shoving a handful of Cheese and Green Onion Jumping Jack popcorn in my mouth. I focused my eyes on the laptop screen sitting at the foot of the bed, the Goblin series playing. I can feel Indra’s eyes on me and it’s starting to irritate me. “You’re being ridiculous,” I turned to her, throwing popcorn at her. “Hey! Don’t hate me,” she said picking it up from the bed covers and shoving it in her mouth as well. “It’s your man that’s cheating, not me,”“See? You’re ridiculous,” I said throwing another handful of popcorn at her, just because I wanted to. “Mr Stark and I are not dating. It was just sex. And I knew about his…handful…women at his beck and all,” I said. “And I’m not angry,” “Last night didn’t seem like it,” she pointed out.“Last night was last night,” I shrugged, my eyes falling back to the screen. “Besides, what you’re saying is unrealistic. I can’t just be in love with Mr Stark right af

“Good morning, Mr Stark,” I walked in the office, wearing a big smile that I hope would convince Mr Stark that it really is a good morning. For me at least. Truth is, I’ve gotten really nervous around him, and I don’t want it to affect my work. So I’m putting on a front. Instead, Mr Stark regards me with a raised brow. I cleared my throat, placing the cup of coffee in front of him before stepping back to wait for him to tell me to proceed. Normally, he’s too busy with whatever he’d been occupied to spare me a look. He’d just grab the coffee without a word and merely grunts an order. This time, Mr Stark leans back on his chair, his eyes devouring me whole, from head to toe. I’ve never had to deal with this much intense attention from him, hence why I’m a shuffling mess, clutching the iPad in hand tightly. “Good morning, Mr Manando,” another thing, Mr Starks rarely greets me back. It never bothered me and overtime, I got used to the l

“So what now?” I asked quietly, looking outside as the world carried on like nothing has changed in my life. I’m sitting here, in my own bubble and…quite frankly, I don’t want it to end. I turned to Mr Stark, ignoring the fact that he knew where my apartment was, without me directing him. It is now five in the evening and the sky is darkening, signalling the end of the day. I feel like a love-struck teenager, coming home after a walk in the part, with my new significant other behind the wheel. The nerves haven’t stopped kicking. Not since Mr Stark’s declaration. We’ve spent the last three hours together either making out or arguing about anything and everything. In those three hours, I’ve learnt that Mr Stark is a touchy person. He denies the fact that he is a very physical person, and we came to the conclusion that he’s only like with his significant other. In this case, me. His words not mine. During the last three hours, I got snippet of our first night together. He ha
