I walked into the kitchen and leaned against the island. This was one of the worst ideas I'd done in my life.She looked like her. Her face was just like hers. The moment I saw her, I knew that this was a goddamn dream. There was no way she was let free. This was one of those doppelganger moments right before my eyes. I knew this was bad. That this would get me into trouble. She won't know. Not yet at least.The night that I fucked her in the bathroom, I intentionally left the light off. I didn't want to get attached to her. Even if I'd already passed that point years ago.To be completely honest, I barely listened to what she said in my office. I had to take the chance to see her every day.The way she said my name while moaning and in general was appealing to me. Just the fact that she was walking around my penthouse, making her completely under my control, flattered me.I looked around my kitchen and decided to make my momma's best Italian dish, pasta. It was the only thing I'd lea
The next morningJust as I was about to enter the building I got a text from Chris, that he had an unexpected meeting and asked me to follow Delilah to Mathew's office.We entered the elevator and a sudden wave of anxiety washed through me. We didn't necessarily end on great terms yesterday because of the kiss but it wasn't my fault. Although, I could've stopped him. And deep down I know I should've.We reached the top floor and headed towards Mathew's office. I wore a tight-fitting, black, dress with black heels while my hair was curled as usual. De had a black tight skirt and a white blouse on with black heels. She knocked before we walked inside.Mathew's office wasn't as big as Chris's but was still massive, compared to a typical office. I smiled and Mathew stood up from his seat."Miss Cadell," he shook my hand and looked over at Delilah. "Miss Jacobs," he placed a kiss on the back of her hand. "Please, sit down," he motioned to the two armchairs across from his table. We sat dow
I let her in the car and sat in myself. I turned the car on and drove off. I tried to keep my eyes off her because my head was going to explode."Can you drop me off to get my stuff?" I nodded. "Is there any chance that Dena could come with me?" I furrowed my brows."Why is that necessary?" Delilah was more than well taken care of. I made sure of it."She's my best friend and she moved here for me.""Call her and ask if she wants that," that was the only logical thing to do. She took out her phone and called Dena."Hi, I'm....," I heard Dena rant on the opposite side of the phone. "Can we talk about this later?" She's hiding something. "Where are you staying?" The answer was Mathew's apartment. "Fine, stay safe." She hung up. "Did you know where she'll be?" I nodded. "Why didn't-""Why do you think I want to tell you everything?""Sorry, I-""Just be quiet," I had no intention to talk to her. At least not when I could literally go crazy if I didn't touch or kiss her anytime soon.----
I got out of bed an hour ago, which let me wind down after the night and even work out. I didn't bother using his giant gym and just did my usual workout in my room.I showered, changed into a pair of light blue, tight jeans with a black belt, a long-sleeved, black sweater and black heels. I curled my hair and put on light make-up. Hunger settled in and the only thing I could do was to go downstairs to make breakfast. I didn't feel any desire to see him.As much as I was thankful for his hospitality, something wasn't right. Not that I didn't trust him, but I just didn't trust myself around him. I didn't think rationally with him beside me.I stepped out of my room while looking around for any signs of Chris. Nothing. The place was quiet. Maybe he was asleep. But at the same time, it was nine in the morning.I got a message from Mathew yesterday, telling me that I could work from home next week since my office was being prepared. I agreed without any doubt. I'll take any chance I get t

The car ride was silent. Just as I expected it. I stared through the window, avoiding him. He had no right to order me around like that. Sure, I could've told him where I was but why would he care?Delilah drove back to Mathew's place without even saying goodbye which I guessed was Chris's job. De would never do that on purpose.I turned my head to him, noticing his grip on the steering wheel. He held it with one hand so hard, it turned his knuckles white. His other hand was on his thigh. I wondered what was he thinking about but I quickly looked away. I didn't want him to question me.Lucas was hot. He looked like a gentleman. Someone I'd go for instantly if I had never met Archer. After him, I'm too scared."Who was he?" Chris broke the silence. I hesitated to answer. "What's the first rule?""Don't make you repeat yourself?""Then answer the fucking question!" he raised his voice."I just bumped into him. There was nothing that happened that should concern you," he chuckled."You g
I opened my eyes and was welcomed by a bad headache. I knew I drank yesterday but what happened after... no memory. I got on my back and looked up at the ceiling.This is not my room.I looked around and remembered that I was in the guest bedroom. I sat up looking around, noticing two perfume bottles on the fireplace.Aella... Or, Ella. Whatever she was.I got out of bed and found my clothes on the ground.How in the hell did this happen?I grabbed my clothes from the ground and sat on the edge of the bed. I began putting my pants on as the door opened. I turned my head and saw Ella walk in. She turned around and closed the door. A smile tugged my lips when I noticed my white dress shirt on her body. She didn't notice me until she looked up, which freaked her out."Oh, Madre mia! Chris," fuck, the way she said my name did wrong things to my body. Specifically my dick. She walked into the bathroom without another word to me.I didn't remember fucking her. Well... just finger fucking he
Christopher Morris.I was in his arms. His to hold. His to kiss. His to look at. It felt as if my life before him was perfect. Nothing had happened and he was my first."You're beautiful, Aella," I smiled as he tucked a strand of hair behind my ear."Why did you believe that it was me?""When you want something so bad, you start to hope everything is similar." I smiled."You-""Mr Morris?" The door opened, I got up, gave a hand to Chris to get up and stood by the table as Mariana waltzed in. "It's very urgent," Chris rolled his eyes."What?""A man walked in and demanded to speak to you," he chuckled."Meetings are scheduled.""He had two men beside him.""So?""With guns," Chris rolled his eyes again. Something in me thought of the possibility of that man being Archer or one of his minions."Where is he?""Right behind the door," he nodded."Name," she looked down on the binder she held in her hands."Archer Bowman," I stilled. Chris looked at me and back at her."Move it to later,"
