My birthday was in a few days. Lizzy and Tania wouldn’t stop gushing about it. While Ella she was hardly home, but for some unknown reason, for the past one week. She had been, and she has started becoming close to me again after a long time.

She apologized and said she was fine with Seven and me being together, but I told her it was okay. Because Seven and I are never going to be together, at least that’s what I thought.

We haven’t seen in these past weeks. It was almost over a month we last saw. He came to the house almost every day, and Lizzy would always tell him I wasn’t home. But not until last week.

She let him in, and thank goodness I was fast enough to see him, so I hid well till he got tired of waiting and left.

I was thinking he’d eventually get completely exhausted from trying so hard to see me, but I guess he was a stubborn man that doesn’t take no for an answer. So he promoted from frequently visiting the house to my boutique.

He visited my boutique and my P. A informed

    The dress code was elegant. Kay literally stated that the company asked them to dress in a black or red stylish outfit. So I decided to go with the red. I wore a knee length gown, who has an opened space at the shoulders, leaving it a shoulder down dress and has a shape V in the middle, exposing a wider part of my cleavage.I changed my hair to a brown bouncy one and wore my accessories before wearing my gold heels to go with it.When I reach downstairs, Kay was already waiting for me with a smile on his face. I couldn’t help but smile back at him. Kay’s black trousers and T-shirt accentuated his broad shoulders, while the red suit added a pop of color that made his eyes sparkle.“Hey,” I say to him to avoid an awkward, silent situation. And he stretched out his hands just as I was about reaching the last part of the step.“You look so ravishingly beautiful, Starr.” He complimented me and I smiled widely again and muttered a low thank you.“Ready to go?” He asked and I just nod,“Yeah

    I proceeded to meet Kay as we opened the dance floor for every other person to join. Whenever I glanced at Seven, I catch him staring at Kay and me, his gaze lingering on Kelvin’s hands on my waist. But it is the only way to dance.After the song ended, everyone clapped and went back to their seats as we all dived to meet our friends and engaged in different conversations.So I approached Gab and the guys to at least thank them for coming to celebrate with me. When I get there, Gab quickly gives me a side hug. “Happy Birthday Starr. This Is a beautiful arrangement.”“Thanks, Gab. But it was the girls that arranged all of this and that includes your woman.” I said to him and I see his face lit up in amusement before he nods.I turn to Chris and Jude, trying so hard to let go of what he did and I look at Seven who seemed ultimately silent and kept on gazing between Chris and I. I think they had a fight cause they’re mostly at each other’s neck, but seeing them like this, I know that som

    Chapter 44✍️“Starr, wake up!” Elizabeth's voiced pierced through my sleep, and I felt a sudden jolt on my shoulders. I snuggled deeper into the duvet and pillow, trying to escape the noise. But she wasn’t having it. She shook me again, and I felt the bed creak as she climbed onto it. “Starr!”I burrowed deeper into the pillow, trying to shut out her annoying voice. But it persisted, piercing through my sleep. Just as I was starting to drift off again, the mattress shifted, and I felt a weight being lifted off. For a moment, I relaxed, thinking I’d been left alone to sleep until I feel drops of water on my face. And I snapped my eyes open as a groan leaves me. “Jesus Christ, Elizabeth!”I’m still trying to get my senses back, but now all of it seems to be focused in one place, driving me absolutely mad. “What did you do that for?” I whine at her, now wide awake, as I brush my hair through my fingers.She doesn’t respond, rather she sticks out her tongue childishl

    CHAPTER 45✍️Still in my thoughts as I wore my flat shiny slippers, I heard the doorbell ring. “Oh shit! He’s here already.” I exclaimed as I quickly packed my makeup into the kitbag, pulled down my gown a little to straighten it, and I reached for the doorknob.I rushed down the stairs to the dining room to check if I’d successfully had everything set. Satisfied, I moved to the door to open it while my fingers trembled.I took a pause and took in a deep breath to calm my roaring nerves before I placed my hands on the doorknob to open it.And I came face to face with that familiar face I looked forward to seeing. He looked like a real man dressed in his fitted jeans and a relaxed fit shirt that skimmed his physique. His undone top two shirt buttons revealed a hint of chest, adding a touch of casual charm to his look.I had never seen him dressed in a Jean before, so it looked strange seeing him dressed like this, but it suits him so much. He looked breathtaking.

    CHAPTER 46✍️His eyes flashed with remorse and guilt as he continued, “That night was the best night I’ve had in years. I wouldn’t hope for something better than that.” He gulped as his eyes shone with sincerity and vulnerability. “I meant it when I said I liked it. There was never a second of it that felt I was doing it because of a bet. Trust me Starr,” He explained, while I just stared and sniffed back in the tears that were threatening to spill.He stretched his hands as he tried to reach mine for mine. He placed his on mine, and he gazed into my eyes. “Do you believe me?”I snapped out of my trance and placed my other hand on his as I gulped, trying to get things off my chest. I wanted him to know how that affected me and whatever little relationship or situation-ship we had before. “Yes, Seven, for a moment after we did—-” I trailed off as I cleared my throat to begin again, but skipped that part.“Honestly, I thought we had something going on, but I guess

    Chapter 47 I thought I had heard incorrectly, so I asked him again, quickly searching around his face with my eyes for my answer, “What did you say?”“I Love you Starr.” He repeated, his voice firm and rigid. I stared deeply into his eyes, as I tried to search for my doubts or lies, but I couldn’t find any.I hesitated for a while before I threw my tongue over my lips to lick it. “Oh my God, Seven.” I replied lowly while I tried to balance myself on the couch since we barely had space between us.My words flattered, as I still stared into his face, “You know you shouldn’t say that just because you want to have sex.”His expression turned as his forehead furrowed in a deep frown. “You still don’t believe me? You think this is all because of sex?” He threw at me, but I remained calm while my eyes lingered on him.“Starr, I’m fucking serious. I love you!” He stated again, his voice loud and guarded.I stared at him, still fumbling with my nails, “Seven, I don’t k

But it’s for your own good.”He shook his head sideways, obviously against my answer, “No, no, Starr. Don’t say that to me. You said you love me. Isn’t that what you said?” He asked me, his brows furrowed in confusion.“Right? That’s what you said.”“Yes.” I replied.He face wrinkled in a frown as he spoke, “Then why say no?”I slowly took my hands from his to mine as I sit to face him directly, “it’s for your own good Seven, I don’t want to trap you with me.”His face turned into a deeper scowl, “What are you talking about? please tell me, what is the issue?” He begged, while I just stayed there, my eyes fixed as I shook my head again and he nodded.He looks at me for a second, his eyes dropped in hurt and rejection, he tugged on his hair in anger and stood up from the couch.I tried opening my mouth to explain but I couldn’t, even if I wanted to, how woul

    I looked at her when that rolled out of my mouth, but she still had a clear expression on her face. “That’s not what he asked you Starr. he didn’t ask you if you have a fucking medical condition. He asked you to be his girlfriend.”“So what? I should lie to him and lead him on for how long? Huh? I should do the same thing Charles did to me to him? Is that what you are asking me to do?” I threw at her and I saw her face softened in pain as tears flowed out of her eyes.“I just want you to be happy. I literally just want my best friend to be happy. That’s all I want.” She continued to speak as tears flowed down her eyes.I nodded my head immediately as I wiped the tears that spilled out of mine. “I understand, but I’ll be happy if he is happy.”I spoke and I see her tilt her head. “Really? Is that the lie you’ve fed yourself with? You and I know that’s a fucking lie.” She spat, and I shrugged my shoulders.“Then what would you have me do?”“Tell him about it, I am sure he wouldn’t___” I

    Two weeks have passed. Seven and I were supposed to go on our date last week Saturday but work had it moved so we were both currently preparing to go today.Seven had to travel back to New York for a meeting and I had to understand as the understanding girlfriend I pledged to be.But now right, I’m glad that we were finally able to do this.My ringing phone jolted me out of my reverie. It was on top of the cabinet where my makeup was. So steadying my full hands, I picked.That familiar deep, masculine voice sent a shrill of excitement through me. I haven’t heard from him for a long time now and trust me that’s not how best friends behave.But it wasn’t entirely my fault. Kelvin was now a busy person. One that travels from country to country in one week. So he was damn busy.“Hey, hello?” I responded with my lips pouted to the mirror still applying my red seductive lip stick to it, just like the way Seven likes it.“Starr? What sup? How’re you?” He asked all at once and I was wondering

    The kitchen was eerily silent, with just burning gazes. I knew I had to say something to make him believe me and not be suspicious of anything.So I cleared my throat and responded. “Uh…. Yeah, babe.” I took a pause while his eyebrows etched, waiting to hear my reason.I forced a laugh, trying to ease the tension, but he was serious. He kept a straight face. “The drugs…Uh.. they’re also skin supplements.”I stated as I chuckled again, trying to ease myself and hope that he buys it. “Skin supplements?” He asked, as his forehead wrinkled in confusion.“Yeah. I take them pretty often.”My eyes widened, so I leaned back, surprised, while I tapped on the side of my thighs as I waited for his next words. “Hmm… I never knew you take supplements for your skin.”When that came out of his mouth, I knew he bought it already, so I tried to be calm as I spoke. “Yeah, I do.”“Okay.” He gave a curt response and turned around for a moment and turned back to face me immediately, like he remembered som

    Last night was amazing. It was a hot one I’ve had in years.I guess with Seven, everything is bound to be good and sweet.My mind whirled off to every single detail from last night. From making out from the table. Yes, my man made me squirt on that table. Giving me a blissful orgasm with just his mouth to my tit and his fingers doing wonders in my private region.After he made sure to mark his table, he carried me to the bed and did the actual work.My cheeks slipped off into a wide smile as I kept on staring at his beautiful face. He was asleep, and I woke up about an hour ago, gazing back at the wonderful sex we had last night.It was bare. No barrier between us. Just sweet and connecting.I disagreed last night when he wanted to use a condom and, considering how much he wanted me, it wasn’t really up for a debate.He just dropped the topic and moved into me slowly, making me lose my breath because of the amount of sweetness I felt.It was overwhelming. For the first time in my life

    A shiver ran down my spine when I stared at it with amusement evident in my face.Woah! “Baby.” I exclaimed.He came closer with that naughty smirk on his face. “You literally bought a pant. A G-string.”I exclaimed as I held it up to his face, checking it out.He chuckled, slipped it off my hands into his, and smiled widely. “I can’t wait for you to put it on, on our date this weekend.”My heart swelled with joy, and my eyes shone. “A date?”He let his hands slip into my waist, holding it perfectly. “Yes.”Instantly, my hands flew over his neck, hugging him tight. “I’m so happy, Seven. Finally.” I commented, and his cheek curved into another charming smile.For the next few seconds, we kept on staring deep into each other’s eyes. Before his eyes flickered to my lips, then back at my eyes.Slowly, his hands rested on my hips, then slid lower. He lowered his face and captured my lips.At first, it was slow. He kept on moving his lips on my lower while his hands danced around my butt, g

    Starr’s POVMy face brightened up into a charming smile and I slapped his chest jokingly and chuckled while speaking. “Why would you throw such words away?” He feigned ignorance immediately. “What words.” Jokingly I hit him again, “Stop Seven, I’m serious.” And he laughed hard.He shrugged his shoulders. “But I am too,” he responded, and I feigned anger quickly and folded my arms.His lips curved into another smile, and he raised his hands in defeat. “Okay. okay. What part should I not throw away? The part where I said I’m jealous or the part where I referred to you as Mrs seven?” He arched his brows with a teasing smirk on his face. “Ugh…” I groaned loudly before settling my eyes back at him and leaned very closer.I stretched my hands to his beards as I stared deeply into his eyes. “Why would you throw something like that away knowing it was just a joke.?” I whispered.Seriousness spread over his face quickly. “And what if I say I meant it, and…..” he took a pause, cleared his th

    Her face dropped dead immediately. Shock was written all over it. She was scared, but quickly milked it up with a small smile.She cleared her throat before responding. “Uhhh… they’re nothing, it’s just you know... menstrual supplements.” She struggled with her words as she stuttered.“Okay.” I gave a curt reply.She took her eyes momentarily to the closet and then back at me, before taking the picked clothes in her hands and moved to the bedroom.I just strolled behind her. She took off the towel while I just leaned my body on her cabinet whilst staring at her, wear her bra to her heels.She didn’t even bother to put on makeup. She just brushed her hair and applied some nude lipstick.Instantly, I stood up and approached her by the dressing table. I took a wipe and wiped the lipstick off, then picked a red one, placing it on her palm.She chuckled and slapped my chest softly. “You love red lipstick, huh?”I furrowed my eyebrows and smiled. “You’ve no idea how much it looks good on yo

    My hands grasped the doorknob, and I pushed it open. The room was empty. For a moment I panicked. My heart raced, but the instant I heard the water running and then it stopped, I knew she was in.She was taking her bath. So I moved my legs to the window, knowing that she’d be out any moment from now.I stretched out my fingers, who has turned white from my nervous knuckles. Swiftly, I wiped my hands on my Jean to clean out the sweat that formed.Still waiting, I moved my legs to her desks where her laptop was, opened. A warmth spread through my chest as I gazed at her laptop, admiring her dedication.My eyes scanned the whole table, and it finally landed on a white thick nylon that had some pack of drugs.Is she not feeling too well? Why is she on drugs?One of it was already at the tip of the nylon, wanting to spill out. So I picked it up to read the content.But the bathroom door swung open. She stepped out and instantly she stood frozen immediately she set her eyes on me. With her

    Sighing, I bursted out into laughter. This epistle is so funny. I knew she was hurt, and that, given my weeks of silence, she probably assumed I was tired of her and wanted to break up.I narrowed my eyes back to my parents and siblings.⏰⏰⏰TWO WEEKS LATERSquinted my eyes before heaving out the deep breath that I’ve kept in for so long.“What is your woman saying, man?” I inquired, narrowing my eyes in slight anger.Groaning, I responded immediately. “I thought you told me that she said Starr would be home today. What changed?” I took another deep breath as I tried to understand what he was spurting from the other end.“So for two weeks, she has been avoiding you? Is that it?” I asked him with my jaw clenching with anger.My eyes moved around trying to read what’s going on even from the other side of the phone.“Man, I think she’s lying or stalling. Maybe Starr is upstairs. Check it out for me. Go to her room and knock. She’s supposed to be back from work.”Tugging the root of my ha

    Washington, Seattle⏰Momentarily, I turned my back to my father, before tugging the root of my hair then faced him again. “No, I’m not going to reconsider anything that man uttered. All of that he said, it’s just based on his daughter’s feelings and not for the company’s alignment.”Narrowing my eyes, I spoke again. “And moreover I told you and mom that I found someone that I love already so I meant it when I clearly stated last year, that the betrothal engagement is cut of.”“I only honored this invitation because of the respect I have for him, but since he wouldn’t get it through his head via email, that is the reason I came. To let it out myself so he and his family can leave us alone dad.”Still panting, I let it all out while my father just stood staring at me till I explained everything. “Okay, son. I understand.”Finally, I was glad when that came out of his mouth. He held me by my arms and motioned that we go back inside.“Thank you Terrence for having my son and I.” Trisha’s
