DistantKhloe POVAfter what happened two hours ago, Mr. Alex still set up an impromptu travel. It was clear to me that he did care about anything aside his selfish ambition. I was still shaken by the fact that two had tried to kidnap and I had drowned myself in the process. None of their mattered to him. "Why are we going to Italy?" I asked the man who had informed me about it. This was my first time seeing him. He was very much different from Alex.The way he gave his commands and mono gestures showed that he was a reticent person. He had defined features that screamed beauty. But each time I spoke to him, he would frown his brows and remain silent like I was a pest on his skin. Even now, he was ignoring me. "I guess I won't be getting any answer. But that is fine because I won't be going anywhere if I am not given a proper explanation of what is going on," I vented out my annoyance and walked away.I went back to my room in anger since everyone chose to ignore me. I tried falli
Khloe POVThe next time I woke up, i found myself sleeping in bed and Mr. Alexander was sleeping on a sofa. He must have been watching over me the whole time which was unlike him.As I stretched out of the bed quietly, flashes of the last thing I saw flooded my head. I looked at my hand and began to wonder how I survived. That day, there was an accident after we were attacked on our way to the airport. So how was it that I was totally fine?"What are you doing there looking confused?" Mr. Alexander groaned as he woke up from his slumber."There was an accident. A gun and Fiona crashed. How...I...," I stuttered."I guess the scare got into your head. First, you slept for two days straight. Now, you are talking about guns and Clashes? Get your act together we are in Italy," he coldly rumbled and got up from the sofa to leave but I stopped him."So you are saying that I have been unconscious for two days and there was no accident?" I asked to be sure."You seriously underestimate my peo
Khloe POVThe gentleman wasn't bad, he entertained us pretty well—well, just me.Fiona was not having it at all. She had a poker face throughout the time we were eating ice cream then protested when he tried to take me to the nearest amusement park.However, everything came to an end once he got a call."It was nice knowing you, Khloe. I hope we see each other soon," he said in a seductive way that made me cringe.He was cute."Happy now? You should learn to loosen up Fiona. We have an entire week to ourselves. Your boss won't come after us while we are having fun. So to be free," I poked her shoulder but she remained stoic.We went back to the large residence Alex had book for us. Instead of a hotel, I am sure that he used millions of dollars to set this up. Always wasteful.After thanking Fiona for her time, I returned to my room."Where did you come from?" The deep voice that echoed from the dark sent shivers down my spine.Alex was in my room."You said that I could have fun so I
Khloe POV I let him lay by my side, he didn't touch me as he promised and I began to wonder what possibly brought out this side of him. All he wanted was to cuddle me to sleep but that wasn't easy. He too knew that it would be difficult for us to fall asleep while on the same bed. After much thought, I decided to start a conversation with him. "Hey, are you awake?" I asked to be sure before bringing up the topic I wanted to discuss with him. "I am." He replied. I remained in my position with my back facing him. It would be impossible for me to talk if I were to turn around and face him. "Do you have to do this all the time?" I asked, not being specific about what I meant. "In what aspect?" He replied with a question and I got nervous about saying my next words. "Well, you travel all the time, handle a lot of strange businesses, have loads of foes at your neck and your hostility towards your father. I noticed you don't..." "Are there any other questions you want to ask?" He c
Khloe POVI trailed behind Alex as we walked down the hallway of the restaurant. He has been awfully quiet and it's getting to me like hell.Like, having him yell at me or something was better than getting ignored. I couldn't even breathe properly because it seemed like a crime.As we were about to leave the restaurant, some guy in an all black outfit just like Alex except for a long coat approached him.He whispered something to him then Alex suddenly turned to me and I felt my world end as breathing came to a pause."You will do," he said and I knew that he was going to punish me. I didn't even want to think about it and let him decide what he would do to me."I..Is there something you need me to do?" I stuttered.His gaze was so intimidating and I couldn't maintain eye contact with him. Waiting for what he would do to me, I tried hard to think of something nice. But he startled me in the cruelest way, lifting my chin so that I could meet his eyes, he captured my lips and I froze a
Alex POVMine. The feeling of hearing this word made me want to label her with my name on her bare skin. Her sleeping figure was so delicate yet tempting at the same time.Yesterday, I lost control. She made a mistake yet I fucked her instead of giving her a sufferable punishment. I never intended to do so but after I kissed her at that restaurant, I wanted more. The kiss was more of a provocation for my father and his cohorts. Vida was one of my father's men, she was the direct heir of Milan Mafia but she proved herself not to be worthy. My business here was to make her join forces with me but I realized that she was damn loyal to my father and more of a whore to him.The audacity of that man still infuriates me. He failed his own family, but never betrayed strangers around him.I wanted to take everything from him—my father, just like he took my mother and everything that I cherished.Using Khloe was the first step in my game since he was into young women especially those around m
Khloe POVAfter that little argument with Alex, I locked myself in my room. I was tired of trying to understand him. He was good at playing with my feelings and I always fall for his tricks.I can't believe I let him fuck me. I am sure he doesn't feel any need for me now that he has gotten under my skirt."Stop overthinking, Khloe. You are just his secretary. He uses women, so don't think you are any different," I mumbled to myself then went into the bathroom to have a warm bath.I filled the bathtub with warm water and dimmed the lights to red. Poured a sweet fragrance that formed a pink lather. Then I took a wine bottle that Fiona had brought for me in the morning.Since I was going to be alone for a while, drinking and watching a movie in a bathtub would keep me company. It was very relaxing and comforting. Once I was done with my bath preparation, I slipped my nightdress off and settled into the refreshing water."This is nice," I muttered with my eyes closed. "It is," a male vo
Khloe POVThe rumors, it was escalating like wildfire. everyone in my office bore holes in the back of my head as I walked down the corridor that led to my office.Yesterday was all it took to get me into this mess. I was drunk, damnit this never happened to me. I never lost myself at a party with my colleagues so why last night?"How shameless of her to show her face at work after what she did. some people lack class," I heard my juniors gossip about me and couldn't scold them because of the fear I felt.I got to my office and thanked God that it was a self-con that could keep me away from others. but I guess I had thought too much because a slap flew across my face and everyone looked at me with disgust in their eyes."so you are the whore that seduced my husband?. how dare you manipulate my husband you witch!," an older woman who I knew nothing about yanked my hair and dashed me multiple slaps."Now I know how she got to the top. She seduces men and they give her a quick promotion,
