"Wow." That was the only sound that could proceed out of my mouth as I stared at Leia without her clothes on, straddling my supposed husband.I should have known better when she declared with all solidarity in her heart that Arthur didn't love me.She knew much better than me and for the first time in a while, I felt stupid.The both of them froze, remaining immobile as we exchanged stares.The only thing Arthur did was to push Leia off his body while he stared at me with guilt filled eyes.Exactly! That's exactly what he should be feeling; GUILT!"Morgan, it's—""No, boss. You don't need to even say a thing, just go ahead and enjoy yourselves, trust me; I'm not restraining you from doing anything." I assured trying my best to keep my voice in check so I don't let the tears that were at the brim of pouring down my eyes, slid down.That would make me a total wreck and an emotions piece of shit.."Morgan, listen—" Arthur tried explaining but I just shut the door as I pressed my back to
Fire bridled on our tongues as we kissed each other passionately but yet urgently. More like we had been starved of each other, every thought that had been running through my mind flew out the window."Arthur." I moaned as my eyes rolled to the back of my head while he nibbled roughly on my lower lip, out tongues intertwining in a kind of uniform arrangement."I love it when you moan my name and now, you'll listen to me explain." He whispered and for a moment, I was restored back to reality.He was doing all this so he could have the chance to explain and not because he really wanted to do it. I must be a fool to believe that he ever wanted me.I was about pushing him away when he tightened his grasp on my waist and trailed kisses from my neck down to my shoulders."I'm sorry I yelled at you at the office earlier, that one was quite personal." He whispered as he fondled with the loose rope at the back of my dress."I'm sorry you had to meet such a horrible sight when you returned home
"To be very honest, I didn't even know that he was with anyone when he walked up to me. It was in your office that u even realized that hr had some escorts with him. Is there something going on?" I asked Arthur's face and though he tried so hard to conceal it, it was quite visible."No, not really." He answered heaving a sigh as he walked to the back of his table and sat I'm his rocking chair, placing his fingers on his temple; he closed his eyes like.somene in deep thought and then I knew that there was definitely trouble in paradise."What's going on? You know you can trust me right?" I asked, my voice suddenly breaking and he snapped his eyes open."Get over there." He ordered in a stern voice and I immediately obliged.As I got to him, he turned his laptop back on and navigated to the tab that held all the CCTV footages of the company and he clicked on a particular video that was from yesterday."Here is the video of Vladimir arriving the company in his black mustang but what I
As we walked into the private elevator, we both remained silent as different things ran through our mind. I wasn't a jinx, else, I would have been able to decipher what he was thinking. The only thing I was sure of at this moment was the fact that my head was running a hindered miles a minute as I tried to understand what was going on.Getting out of the elevator, we walked into his office and Arthur waited till I had gone inside so he could eventually lock the door by himself.“Okay, so I don't understand. Why was it so important that I saw this particular guy?” Arthur asked as he sat on top of his table waiting for me to give him details and I had to rub the center of my forehead before analyzing it inside of my brain and give him an answer that was reasonable.“Leia called to my attention that the guy was with Vladimir yesterday so I thought that seeing him in the company today was kind of absurd. Now we know his face, he might be one clue and lead that we have now.” I stated and A
I sat in the luxurious room my husband called his study, sunlight filtered through the stained window panes; around me, almost every piece of design here was gold, the mosaic on the wall was gold, the shelves had golden handles and golden design, the chair I sat in, and other furnitures and accessories in here. I sighed my husband is a wealthy, multi-billionaire CEO, who had companies all over the world, (including Africa), but here I sat, resentful, even with all the splendor around me. I had been married to my husband for a month now, we slept in the same room, on the same bed, but kept reasonable distance, not that he is bad-looking or anything, in fact he is a sight to behold, I had never seen a man as handsome as he is, is just that I had been married to him, by my parents, who would never want to miss an opportunity to get their daughter married to a wealthy CEO “Good morning” came a deep voice, I whirled towards towards to the sound of the voice
I sat in the study, proofreading the new novel I was writing, beside me was a bottle of ice soda, yes! soda gives me inspiration when reading, besides me, on the floor, lay Arthur’s pet Rottweiler, the dog had nearly tore me off, the day it saw me, Arthur had to calm it down, I don’t know if Arthur explained to the dog that I was his wife, because the next day, the dog had sauntered up to me and wagged it’s tail, it quickly became friends with me. “Jeez! Flint I don’t even know what to write” I said and Flint whined and stared at me, sometimes I think the dog understood a lot, he jumped into my lap and used a paw to close the book as if telling me to forget about writing for now, I laughed and rubbed his head, he jumped down and I walked out of the study with he on my trail. I entered the large hall and met Arthur standing, his back facing me as he grabbed a bottle of beer from the bar, he poured it into a glass. So he was back, I wanted to quietly slip back into
I stared at my laptop, researching on how to win a man’s heart, but all of them were useless, after last night at the grave, Arthur’s attitude had become worse, he rarely talked to me and he just completely ignored me, he looked scared, anytime I told him, I wanted to tell him something, I knew he didn’t want my love, this should have discouraged any normal woman, but instead I fell more deeply in love, I would sit for hours picturing him kissing me, telling me he loved me, the most crazy thing now was I would imagine him making love to me and any time he comes, I would peek through the door watching him undress himself. Once, he had suggested we have separate rooms but i quickly told his mom, who came and ordered him to call the idea quits, Arthur had given me the stink eye and ignored me. I picked my phone, a brand new iPhone 13 and dialed Brielle’s line. She picked at the first ring. “Morgan!! What’s up? How’s Arthur” she asked and I smiled sad
We got home and Pedro rushed out and opened the door for us, I smiled at him and walked in, Arthur tossed Pedro a huge wad of money. “Give it to your momma, tell her I said hi” Pedro grinned. “Thank you, sir” he said and Arthur nodded and strode to the bedroom and I followed suit. He opened the door and sat on the huge bed. “So, who was that man?” I asked, and Arthur frowned, he looked cute when he frowned. “He is an old enemy, he sees himself as my rival” Arthur said, he tossed his hair back, the move was so sensual that heat pooled between my legs, my breath caught. “He was kinda looking at me weird” i confessed and Arthur eyes filled with fire, he stood. “Be careful of that creep” he growled and I smiled, suddenly becoming bold. “Are you concerned?” I teased and Arthur scowled at me, he stepped closer but I was done being intimidated, he needed to know my feelings. “I love you Arthur Stone,”
