No!, this can't possibly be a human. He was more like a demigod..... if not more than that.
"Hi, Mr Gauthier." She wanted her voice to come out well, but it came out more like a squeak. Get a hold of yourself Lesley!. she groaned internally."Please come over miss Perkins." Came his soft reply. Lesley felt weak at the knees as she walked to where he was. She took a sit opposite him, and unwillingly found herself drooling.His face was flawless, chisseled chin, perfectly arched brows and his lips set in a hard line, a non smiling one. His hair looking so soft she wanted to run her hands through it. Those abs visible through the light shirt he wore were more than normal ones."It's a relief that finally Hazel has found someone she likes, and for the first time she didn't gripe about the new nanny." Gary started as he watched her.Lesley watched him move his lips as he spoke, such flawless American accent!. How could one be this perfect?.."uh... umm..... I'm elated she accepted me... Mr Gauthier." she stuttered, raising her gaze to meet his. She noticed his eyes were the deepest shade of blue. They locked gazes for a second before Lesley broke contact, intimidated by his daunting gaze."Now you've been employed there are rules you'd follow, schedules you must keep to. I'd be glad of you can keep them Miss Perkins." He scrutinized her before continuing. "So do we negotiate your pay now, or you'd like to do that later on?" He queried. He crossed his long legs and took out a Cuban cigarette, , he lit it and he clenched it between his teeth. Lesley smoothened down her hair and bat her lashes."Well.... I suggest you tell me how much you'd pay me for the job ... any amount is fine." She responds Gary eyed her in amusement."Are you saying you're fine with whatever amount I pay you?. It's was in the advertisement miss Perkins, you don't need to be hesitant." He assures.Lesley shook her head. " I'm fine with whatever pay you gon let me on." Lesley says firmly. Gary puffed out smoke as he spares her a glance."Well if you insist I'd watch how you take care of Hazel, that's gonna determine your pay....""Lesley!... " They both whipped thier heads to see Hazel shriek in excitement and bounding down the stairs."I've been waiting for you in like forever!." She throws her arms around Lesley in excitement. Lesley stiffened at the contact before ruffling her hair. Gary raised his brows."Hazel, I hope you won't give your nanny a hard time?" Gary voiced out clearly surprised to how quick she'd taken to her new nanny.Hazel took the lunch pack from Lesley and unwrapped the foil. She took out a piece of muffin and bit into it."With a beautiful Nanny, no scratch that... a beautiful Lesley who makes tasty snacks like this.... I'd sure be staying with her forever." Hazel flashed her dad a grin. Lesley hung her head, heat crawling up her cheeks. Gary did his best to hide his surprise.."Dad are you done with her?" She asked and when he nodded she turned to Lesley."C'mon Lesley let me give you a tour of the mansion!." She tells her in excitement, tugging Lesley by the hand towards the staircase and leaving Gary to stare in astonishment.•GARY GAUTHIER'S POV•I watch them walk out and seconds later I breathe out in relief. Finally Hazel has gotten a nanny she loves, I can rest now.I had seen the cctv footage of the interview, the lady seems so caring. That's exactly what I want, someone to care for her, whenever I'm not available to do that.Why did she have to choose that sort of girl anyways. One who's not interested in her pay. One with that sort of beauty. Well not everyone freaks out that I'm Gary Gauthier. My phone dings and I pull it out to check the caller. it's a private number. I swipe for the receive icon and place it against my ears.📲"Hey munchie." I go silent for a second, in which my hand grips tightly to the phone and my face goes taut."Brie!. .. what the heck do you want this time. I told you I never want you fuckin calling me!." I grit out through clenched teeth. She giggled; that annoying giggling that i so hate. I took a drag of my cigar and puff out smoke in annoyance."Awww.... c'mon baby stop acting so feisty. I missed you Gary.... I've missed us.... I've missed you riding on me, I've..." I disconnected the phone, tightening my grip on it and taking in deep breaths."Fuck!... can't she ever stop bothering my life! that phase of my life has passed!." I cuss. She always manages to get my contact no matter the times I changed it. I release my grip on the phone and dailed a line. It didn't have to ring too long."Ben come right away." I say into the phone and hung up. Getting off the couch I make my way inside the lift and leaned against the walls as It rode up.She has a way of getting on my nerves. What else does she fuckin want, after all she'd done, after she ruined my life years ago. I got out once the door slides open and entered my office.I walked to the glass walls overlooking the city, puffing out smoke on the glass and creating a mist. A hand snaked through my waist and I turned sharply."What in the world are you still doing here?". I barked at the girl who had kept me company the previous night. She flinched."C'mon Gary, I've always wanted to be more than a one night stand." She flashes a faux smile unbuttonii my shirt and planting kisses on my neck. I held her hand and pushed her away."Get the fuck out of my office and meet my P. A for your pay." I sent her a death glare.She came forward again and started unbuttoning my pants. I moved away in annoyance, punched a button on my table, and a security man came inside immediately."Take this fucking whore out of my office.""No!, Gary please don't do this to me!" She was tossed over his shoulders as she struggled to get free. I stuffed the half burnt cigarette into a ash tray."Good riddance." I breathe out as the door shut close. I lowered myself on the couch and took out my laptop..LESLEY PERKINS' POV"This is Gary musical room". Hazel informs as she opened another door. Hazel has been busy taking a tour of the mansion. Gosh.... my back aches from too much walking courtesy of the huge mansion."He comes here every night to play. No one has ever been here, except for you. She snapped her fingers and the light went off. She snapped it again dim red light flickered on casting it warm glows around the room"Wow!... this could cost a fortune Hazel." She snapped it once more and the florescent lights flickered on again"Yeah, Dad uses the latest technology in Newyork" She says proudly. She shut the door after stepping out."Dad is always busy and he ain't got a pinch of time for me... it sucks though. Always leaving me with those old grannies he calls nanny. All they do is sing the most horrible boring song I've ever heard."I chuckle lowly, this kid's a psycho. We took the lift for the third floor... Hazel apartment. I walked into the living room they had used for the job interview and it had changed."Dad doesn't let me stay with him, so I have my own apartment." She voice out, a tinge of sadness in her voice.Jeez!... this sounds so fucked up. Imagine leaving a girl this age on her own. she's just seven for fuck sake!. They went into her room as she sat down on the bed."So you mean your Dad has no time for you?". I ask sitting down beside her. She shrugged."He's away most of the time, barely comes to my room... and barely plays with me. Says he's got loads of work. Entices me with costly stuff I don't want." she scoffed in annoyance. I smiled in pity as I hugged her."But he still loves you Hazel. He wants the best for you. Don't worry I'd make sure you're never bored again okay?." she smiled and nodded"I love you already Lesley. You're so different from my other nannies." She got down from the bed."The last one, a young girl, more like a slut though, cos shes always sitting at table applying dumb makeup, always around Dad. I think she came to baby sit him not me." She scoffed and Lesley couldn't hold back her laugh, jeez Hazel is way smarter than her age."Hazel how about playing the piano". I could teach you how to play a tune.""You can play the piano?". she asked in excitement."Yeah Hazel, My dad had always taught me how to.""Whoopie!." She screamed in excitement running over to sit on the stool in front of the piano. I smiled and walked towards her. Crazy kid...BRIE'S POVI cursed in annoyance as I threw my phone on the couch. I took a sip of the vodka and sat down on my bed. Jeez Gary seems to have gotten over me. But I can't seem to get him out of my mind, not when he's now the don of Newyork.I'm Brie and I've got all a woman can ever have. Great body, the biggest modelling agency in carlifornia, fame, extravagant life, rich bitches as friends and a lot more you can imagine. But every woman loves a good man with a good dick. To satisfy your every desires. And the one I'm married to doesn't satisfy me anymore. Yuck!, it was never a love marriage though, just some fuckin partnership agreement.Gary has always been an expert at that. The more reason I want him back. He's way more hotter than before, to crown it all, he hasn't gotten himself a new pussy. Alright I know I fucked up big time, everyone does make mistakes. Gary might be acting tough but I'm sure when he sees me, he'd realise how much he's missed me and how well he can't do without me. And there's nothing more exciting than paying your long lost love a surprise visit...___I knead the dough as Hazel stood on a small stool, mixing eggs in a bowl. Hazel won't stop chattering, boasting of how she's gonna be a better cook than me when she's all grown up. I sigh and let her chatter, I can do nothing to stop her.It's been two long weeks since I started working for the Gauthiers. Long enough to know almost everything about the mansion, the maids, the security men and Hazel. The only person I've not been given the slightest chance to know is Gary Gauthier, the demi god in form of human. Since Hazel's room occupies a floor it's almost impossible that I meet him.Hazel always has a thousand things to do and it keeps me in her apartment all the time. As for Gary, I subconsciously wish I don't have physical contact with him. The few times I did, all I ever do is stutter and act nervous around him. Everything about him is so freaking intimidating. From his killer looks to his scrutinizing gaze.Hazel Is gradually becoming a part of my routine, so smart and lovable
BRIE'S POVI bang my head in frustration against the headrest as the car drives out of the mansion."Take me to a club" I bark at the driver. Alright I know I fucked up big timez but that was so fuckin embarrassing!. Gary kissing that dirty looking bitch in my presence. I don't seem to know her, she definitely ain't a celebrity, her clothes looks so cheap. I pressed a button on the armrest as it revealed a cabinet full of drinks. What I need now is lots of drinks, music and a good d i c k at the club. For f u c k sake I divorced Brian because I thought Gary had no one!. I'm certain I can get him back, Gary had never been able to resist me, and so long as I'm Brie, he'd never be.LESLEY PERKINS' POVStacy had literally freaked out when I told her of the kiss with Gary. I mean who wouldn't?, It's Gary Gauthier we're talking about."Jeez.... how did it feel like Lesley.... does his lips taste of dollars?. She mused and I roll my eyes dramatically"For f u c k sake Stacy he did it not b
My pulse quickened and heat travelled down my body. His lips brushes my earlobe softly and I suck in my breath sharply. Gary pulls away, leaving me heated up, before sitting between I and Hazel. I clench and unclench my fist so I can stop the erratic way my heart beats. Why the heck is he flirting with me!. I've gotta tell him he should stop, I've barely lasted a month here and I sincerely don't want any scandal."Hey Dad!". Hazel squeaks in excitement as she sit up, its obvious she loves her dad. If only he could pay more attention to her."How you Hazel." He pecks her on the cheek."I'm okay Dad, what you doing here?." She asks as she pours herself a cup of milk."I live here." He says and roll his eyes at her. Hazel grins."No Dad I meant here in the garden. I can't remember the last time I saw you here dad, it's cos of Lesley right?." She smirks and folds her arm. My cheeks heat up cos am blushing.Gary chuckles and reaches for the plate of pancakes. He spreads apple syrup o
LESLEY PERKINS' POVI'm on my third cup of coffee and Stacy on her fourth. I'm repeating the same thing over and over again."Wait..... I don't really understand Lesley..... Gary Gauthier asked you out on a date?" She blurts. I huff and wrap my fingers around the mug."No Stacy, he asked me to accompany him to an anniversary because his mom insists he brings a girl along.""What's the difference... last time I checked when a guy asks you out it's called a date Lesley. He officially asked you out cos he's into you.""Fuck stacy..... he's not!.""He is sweetie.... and trust me when I say.... something good is gonna come out of that date. Now you need to shop for more sexy dresses, you'd need to go to the spa...""Stacy!, enough of me already... how is Jeffrey?." I ask dismissively. Jeffrey Is stacy's boyfriend. The last thing I wanted right now is she reminding me of him .. when all I wanted to do was forget him. But it just seemed impossible. His cute face, nice abs, soft looking hai
LESLEY PERKINS' POVMy heartbeat is erratic and I suck in my breath. Gary notices and he pulls away to stare at me."What's wrong?." He voiced out immediately. I blink away what seemed like tears."You scared I'm gonna hurt you huh?" He smirks and I shut my eyes and nod. Oh how I wish it were that. I wish it was that simple. He chuckles and palm my cheeks"I'm not gonna hurt you. I'm sorry I'm damn attracted to you, ever since you walked into my territory I've always wanted to know how your lips would taste like, how your velvet skin would feel like." He paused as his hands went up to cup the male of my neck. Shivers coarsed down my spine, more from his words than his touch. Deep inside my subconscious screamed to get away from this man in front of me, but I couldn't. Not with the way he stared so intensely at me, not with the way he kissed me perfectly. Though my heart was thudding in fear, I shut out whatever demons were threatening to take over my sanity and forced a smile.I drap
GARY GAUTHIER'S POVI hugged her figure as the driver drove out wildly to the nearest hospital. I can't seem to comprehend what just happened.I look down at her sleeping figure and am worried, fucking worried. What the fuck just happened?.Minutes ago I was kissing her very delicate skin, she was just fine. Glowing, looking damn beautiful and then we pulled up at a very expensive club, the most expensive in Atlanta and she stares at the building and goes into shock.Its been so long I feel helpless, Even when I and Brie got divorced, I hadn't felt helpless.But now I couldn't help feeling helpless. She looks so pale my heart longed to protect her.I don't know the effect she has on me. I've known her for over a month but it seems like forever.Throughout the short ride to the hospital, I hug her frame figure, kiss and ruffle her hair and listen to her shallow breathing. Minutes later he pulls up at the hospital and goes out swiftly.The door opens and I rush out heading for th
LESLEY PERKINS' POV"Lesley!."Gary calls me and his voice sounds distant. I tried to regain my composure. I feel Gary wrap his arm around me. That seems to help and I slowly began to gain consciousness"Brunnie.... are you alright!?" Now I flutter my eyes open to look at Gary's concerned one. I tuck my hair behind my ears and nod."Yeah, sure I was just dozing off." I looked around the table to see their eyes on me."you sure about that?, c'mon let's get back to the suite" He says trying to help me up. I didn't even realize my glass cup isn't with me again."No Gary, I'm okay. Do excuse me I wanna visit the ladies". Gary looks up at me as I stand. He didn't look convinced, so I peck his cheeks and whisper quickly."I'm fine Gary ... I'd be back before you say jack." I smile and grab my pearl purse, walking from the table. I find my way to the ladies and enter an empty one. I close the door and lean against it.Oh God!, what's happening to me! Why I'm I acting so jittery!. I badly
LESLEY PERKINS' POV"Don't stay out long." I say as I peck Gary."I wouldn't dare, I hate to stay away from my sexy little Brunnie." I grin, gave him a quick hug before he left the suite.He's gonna be away all day cos he's having a business conference with some of his clients here in Atlanta.I sit on the bed and stare into space. I'm breaking so many rules; Don't ever love someone, I'm breaking that. Don't make any friends, I already broke that rule. Oh God!, what rule is next!.I can hardly still believe I'm Gary's girl. Maybe it's all a roller coaster of emotions but I can't help it.I can't seem to think straight whenever I'm around him, I try so much to resist him, but just the slightest touch from him makes my skin tingle, just the intensity of his gaze makes me forget my decision.If only I can control the way I feel, then maybe I wouldn't fall for him.My phone buzzes and I took it out. Stacy is calling me on face-time. I smile excitedly and swipe to receive. I lay on the
