Chapter 5
Megan in a dark room laid on a large queen size bed, how she got there was a mystery. A few minutes ago, she was with her friends having fun, but suddenly, she wasn't. At least that was what she could remember.
Her breath increased rapidly as she felt rough hands on her belly. Wasn't she alone, her heart pounded and at the same time she felt ecstasy build up slowly in her body?
She wanted to speak, but it was more like her voice had disappeared.
“You know what”! Megan’s heart thundered in her chest as she heard the hoarse and manly voice. This confirmed the fact that it was a man.
“I haven't had sex in the past five years”. Alex drunkenly said. He felt the innocence of the lady beneath him. It's been so long since he had sex.
So his body burned violently as he couldn't hold the desire to take her hard. He immediately brought Megan closer, taking her by the lips.
She shouldn't be enjoying this right, he was with a total stranger. She was supposed to scream for help. But why did her body respond to those hands when he touches her in the right places?
Alex was no longer satisfied with just touching her, as he tore her clothes, exposing her breasts that bounced out. Her breasts were perky, and he felt the urge to feel them sending shivers to Megan's spine.
“Tell me what you want”. Megan heard the melodious voice ask. And like she was possessed, she answered in desperation.
“I want you, please”, her voice quivered as she felt his head at her core. Her eyes widened. She has never experienced this, not even with Greg.
Her heart broke by the fact that she still thought of Greg at this time. They never had sex like couples do. It was more like an obligation to him.
Alex, felt agitation to just fuck her already, but something in him wanted him to sever every moment. He licked her wetness, making her moan. She was sweet, even Brittany was not to be compared to this woman.
He suddenly found himself going towards her core, she smelled like roses mixed with lavender. The kind of smell that soothed her pale skin and blond hair, reflecting her innocence.
Alex immediately positioned himself, so he could insert his member into her. Until he felt her soft hands touch him. Her eyes pleaded for him to take her, she was eager and wanted him. This was the only confirmation he needed before he entered her, succumbing to ecstasy.
***
The day was bright and the soft morning glow of the Sun rays cast a shadow on the couples. Alex had been up for some moment putting his thoughts together, until his phone suddenly rang.
“Hello sir’. The voice sounded distressed and in so much fear.
“What is it John, haven't I warned you to not disturb my peace during the weekends”. Alex seethed in his raspy voice.
“I am so sorry, sir, but it's urgent”. John at the other end was sweating profusely.
“The company is in danger”.
“There is a fall in the stock price of the company and the investors are pulling out. And Mr. Jackson is nowhere to be found and worst of all the police are all over the company accusing us of fraud”. Alex’s assistant voice rushed with trepidation.
The gold group is one of the most well-known jewelry companies in New York. It is well known that it was started up by an eighteen-year-old cold and ruthless tycoon who lost his parents at an early age and the company had seared to the highest level under his care.
“What”! Alex immediately got up from his bed.
“Shit”! He cursed under his breath. Jackson was at the club with him last night, he is probably suffering from a hangover or doesn't want to work since its weekend.
This wouldn't have happened if he didn't have an obsession with blond girls. He felt his heart squeeze with hatred and anger as he looked at Megan's oval face. She was so peaceful and Beautiful in her sleep, yet she was fashioned against him.
Without a second thought, He immediately started wearing his clothes stiffly. His expression was calm and collected, not the kind of reaction you expect from someone whose business is in danger.
“I am coming, John. Just make sure to keep calm until I get there”. He hung up.
With one last look at her. He swore never to have anything to do with women in general. In Fact, he never wanted to see this woman again. He turned majestically towards the door, walking out without hindrance.
A few minutes later, after Alex had left, Megan woke up with no memories of last night's encounter. She put her hands on her head as she felt her head banged like a drum.
“Oh fuck”. She cursed immediately she noticed she was naked. Megan was truly with a man and it wasn't a dream. All of a sudden, the memories flood her like an erosion. She was with a man whose face wasn't vivid.
Her face flushed, showing how embarrassed she was.
“How did this happen?” Her eyebrows furrowed. She looked at her body, and they were covered with hickies and even when she stood up, she felt her legs give way.
“That monster,” she said aloud with a red face. This is so embarrassing.
Megan immediately wore her clothes that were scattered around. It's been only two days since she divorced Greg, she needed to put her life together. She thought.
Megan walked in on her father and two brothers having breakfast. Her father had always been a distant figure in her life, since the death of her mother. What made her leave to marry Greg was the fact that her father got married to another woman, Mrs. Evelyn.
She felt her happiness was bound with Greg when her father decided to have another family, unfortunately she thought wrong.
“Good morning father”. Megan greeted her father. Mr. Leonard distantly.
Enzo felt Megan's reluctance. And he didn't blame her. Their father had wronged them. Even if he and Loyd could forgive him, Megan could not.
“Welcome home, my good daughter”. Mr. Leonard replied with a happy tone. He appreciated that all three of his children were around.
“I am so happy you decided to return, Margaret. The house hasn't been the same without you”. Her father said, with no emotions.
Megan was irritated, it was more like he had rehearsed what to say to her.
“But that aside. I have an important announcement”.
“Your father is old now, and he needs to rest”.
Megan could only smirk at her father. She just knew he wanted to talk about business.
Typical Mr. Leonard, who doesn't know him in New York City. The powerful man who hardly sleeps when it comes to business. The man who would rather talk about business than acknowledge his daughter after five good years.
“I want Enzo to take over the company”. His father said.
“Me”? Enzo looked back to ensure he was
talking to him.
Mr. Leonard raised his brows dangerously at Enzo.
“I can't father”, he immediately replied.
“You brat, how can you say you can't take over the company”?
“Common dad, I have my own company. You don't expect me to leave it”. Enzo vibrated.
Mr. Leonard could only shake his head in frustration.
“What about you, Loyd”? He turned to Loyd, who had been quiet since morning.
“I don't want it either. We all know I want to lead a simple life and I hate anything related to business”.
“I have decided that I would like to become a pastor”. Loyd blurted out, making Mr. Leonard's eyes bulge out in bewilderment and making Enzo burst into laughter.
Enzo’s eyes glinted. The monster had decided to change. Loyd was a spoiled brat who made lives for people in New York hell. He was sure his sudden change was all Anna's doing. Anna was the girl Loyd loved and still loves, it is a painful one-sided love from him.
“How can my two sons decide not to take over the family business? What will become of the company? Who will keep it running?” Mr. Leonard puts his hands on his chest as he was about to have a heart attack.
“I will do it”. The feminine yet strong and brave voice echoed.
Chapter 6“What did you say, dear”?Mr. Leonard was shocked as Megan announced that she wanted to take over the m&k fashion group.He never imagined that his daughter Margaret would have any interest in the company.“Yes, dad, Megan can take over. We know she is intelligent and has the ability to make the company triumph”. Loyd interjected.“Will you shut up, pastor?” He was reminded by the fact that Loyd just announced that he wanted to become a pastor.“You ungrateful soul. After everything I did for you. This is how you repay me”. He gave a long look at Loyd before turning towards Megan calmly.“Margaret darling, you do know that this comes with a lot of responsibility and time. Are you sure you can actually take over?” He explained while gesturing his hands.“Yes dad”. Megan replied without moving a muscle on her face.“Okay”. Mr. Leonard took in a long breath as he struggled to decide.“I cannot fully keep it under your care, Margaret. This company was one of your mother's greate
Chapter 7 Greg paced the living room of Mr. Chase as he awaited him in his study room. His thoughts were running wild and anger brewed in his blood. The door creaked, revealing Mr. Chase in his three-piece suit. He had an insipid expression on his oval face. “To what, do I owe this visit, Greg”. He said with suspiciousness laced in his eyes. “I… I need your help, sir”. Mr. Chase could not help but feel irritated. What else did he want? If it wasn't for the fact that he was his daughter’s fiancée. He wouldn't even spare him a glance. “Speak”. Mr. Chase thundered. “It's my wife. I mean my ex-wife, Megan”. His eyebrows knit together as a flicker of embarrassment crosses his face. “I don't know how she could fucking afford a lawyer, but I am sure she is playing mind games with me. She went as far as suing me for domestic abuse. I want to teach her a great lesson”. He said with gritted teeth. “If you could just help me…. “What!”. The thunderous voice echoed in the room, interrupt
Chapter 8 It's been a week since Alex’s one-night stand. In his handmade tailored suit, he stood rigidly while staring blindly at the windows. He was deep in thoughts. Thought that were dangerous if they were more than that. His face was straight, like someone who hadn't smiled for years. “Sir”! John, who happened to have entered the office with two envelopes, interrupted Alex's silent dialogue with himself. “What did you find out?” He asked coldly without facing John. “Mr. Jackson has been found in Italy. Apparently, he leaked confidential secrets of our newly made design and was looking for an appropriate time to sell it to our biggest rival," Jackson paused before continuing. "Silverline group," he added with a cringe. “So when Jackson, Asher, and Mike drugged you up to have a nice time with a woman. Sir Jackson has another agenda, which he carried out immediately”. “That was why silverline group claimed right and accused us of forgery. But thank God you took care of that, s
Chapter 9 “What is this, dad?” Megan questioned subtly. Her brows furrowed into a curious frown. “You might find this strange, but This contract came in from an anonymous source yesterday”. “It is an exclusive opportunity to bid on a prestigious project in the realm of high-end jewelry. Mr. Leonard echoed with satisfaction. Megan brows scrunched upwards. An anonymous offer from an unknown source was quite dangerous. “But why do we need to participate in this project if we don't even know who is offering it to us”. “When it comes to business, my dear, we take risks. And moreover there are rumours that this could be an offer from the most prestigious jewellery maker Mrs. Margaret who was famous globally”. Megan was in a whirlwind of emotions. She found it quite odd as she shook her head as if to get rid of the eerie feeling. “This is not to be joked with, Margaret. The Gold's group who happens to be our partner is also involved as well as our mortal rival, the silverline jeweller
Chapter 10Megan slid into the car, her breath still laboured from the frantic escape. She couldn't shake the feeling of Elizabeth's predatory gaze on her back. As the door closed, she exhaled a shaky breath, grateful for the temporary reprieve.“Go after her, stupid,” came Elizabeth’s stern command from the Crowd, her voice cutting through the tension like a knife.But Before the paparazzi could swarm the car, they were already speeding away, the engine purring softly. Inside the luxurious vehicle, Alex's expression remained unreadable, devoid of warmth or emotion.“Thank you,” Megan muttered, feeling a mix of gratitude and confusion toward the enigmatic stranger beside her.However, no response at all came in from Alex who was in a conflicted state. He had no idea why he helped Megan. On his way from his office he had sighted her being surrounded by paparazzi, and immediately he saw her together with Elizabeth, he knew there was foul play. And Just like he was controlled, he immedi
Loyd's eyes flared open."You don't love Me?" Megan heard Loyd raise his voice again, a little higher this time. She dropped her suitcase on one of the sofas, took off her coat and moved closer to the direction of the voice. "Anna, I..." Loyd shook his head. "I changed for your sake, I put away my bad attitude, I stopped taking the fucking ganja for your sake and you still don't love me?" The expression on his face was a mix of anger and disappointment."That's not..." Anna began to say."We've been together for a month, Anna. I've tried my best, I gave you everything you asked for, I've finally managed to become a better person with your help. So what do you mean you don't love me?"Megan silently walked to the dining room where the sounds were coming from and peeked her head in. Loyd and Anna were seated on one of the stools and Loyd was gazing intently at her. Her brother's pale face and reddened ears increased her worry and she could not see the face of the other female because
Anna knew that this all started from that day at Ohio……“From the votes cast, we have come to a conclusion that majority of us are in support of the Smart House get- together,” a lady in a simple steel grey suit said with a paper in her hand. Around her were seated some members of the Smart House event planning committee which comprised of high-class men and women who looked uninterested and eager to round up the meeting. The lady began to read out the details of the poll received from their subsidiary companies while one of the men took out a cigar.After a boring read and stressful taking of suggestions, she arranged the files together and submitted them to the board of directors.The board of directors of The Smart House Inc. also thought it was a reasonable idea to organize a get-together for all the staff working under them in all their subsidiaries. The goal was to bring all the employees together in an atmosphere that would be conducive enough for them to know each other and
Brittany closed the door softly with lust over her deep ocean eyes. Anna radiated a serene aura that attracted her sexually. “You look beautiful, Anna”. Brittany said, slightly biting her lips as she uncontrollably stared at her luscious cleavage. “And I find you very attractive”. Anna felt very weird as Brittany walked slowly towards her. She couldn't explain why her heart suddenly yearns for what was in front of her. She was new to Ohio and had recently acquired this job; she didn't expect to suddenly find herself here with the chairperson of the board of directors. She wasn't here to participate in what is about to happen. She was here to work to assist her family. Brittany grabbed her hands gently, bringing Anna's body closer to hers. “Don't fret babe. I don't bite”. With those words, she smooched her lips with a kiss quickly, surprising Anna, whose body was shamelessly responding to her actions. “Let's have a nice time together”. Brittany starts to take Anna's clothes off u
