HIS DARK HORSE Remorse
He waited anxiously for his best friend to make an appearance. He didn't want to believe the evidence before his eyes. How could have made the same mistake he promised himself to avoid?A knock came from the door bringing him back to the present. Alvin walked inside in a casual white shirt and black jeans. He looked relaxed. Alex took one more look at his friend. That was when he noticed the smugness.His heart sunk in his chest. He didn't need words to confirm his doubts. It was written on his best friend's face. He swallowed hard and braced himself for what was to come. Not wanting to beat around the bush, he asked the dreadful question that was burning him inside."Is it true? Was it all a well-planned scheme? Did I hurt her for a fake?" He mentally applauded himself for getting the words out without a stutter. Alvin said nothing from the moment he walked in. He was still bitter after everything Alex did. Knowing his friend, he hasn't been himself for a while now. He would normally
HIS DARK HORSE Best Friends cum lovers
Alvin and Alex spoke some more. As he was getting ready to leave, he heard a ping on his phone signifying a new message reception.He wasn't big on sending messages. Finding it quite odd, he retrieved his phone and proceeded to unlock it. He sat up and rubbed at his eyes as though to clear any fog.The message didn't change. It was a short one too. He read it out loud trying to understand it." Don't leave the office. Don't let your friend leave either. Danger. Sister.!"Alex looked up at him for an explanation. Alvin finally understood. Only one person called him brother. The only sister he acknowledged was Lee. He smiled." Alex, let's stay here tonight. We can always order take out for the night. I don't want to leave you alone only for something to happen to you later."The C.E.O didn't argue. He listened to his friend already feeling exhausted from all the emotional roller coaster he had in the course of a few hours.While the two friends were busy discussing their supper for th
HIS DARK HORSE The Night Hunt
The night sky was dark and gloomy as rain fell from the heavens gracing the thirsty land. The rumbling sound of thunder accompanied by several flashes of lightning was not left behind. The moon appeared shrouded by the dark clouds hiding its glow from the residents of the planet earth.A lone figure dressed in a fitting ninja outfit walked on the empty streets enjoying the rain. Her entire body was in black except for her sea blue clear eyes. Her clothes were waterproof. Additionally, so was the mask she wore.She looked at the watch in her left hand. Her eyes slanted a bit as her face was hidden from view by the mask she wore. She had two hours to enjoy the rain. With every step she took, her heart lightened. It was as though the rain washed away her burden.Lee loved the rain. If not for anything else but for the fact that she could cry freely in the kind of weather. She loved water in all its forms. It washed away her sweat, tears, and blood. It cleaned her body of
HIS DARK HORSE A Family by bond
The warm water from the shower washed away the filth that she felt was on her skin. She loved the feeling of water on her skin.She loves water in all its forms as long as it's clean water. She stayed enjoying the shower for almost thirty minutes before she left the bathroom. She soon appeared in the living room towards the smell of the food that was coming from the kitchen.As she stood behind her boss cum sponsor, she couldn't help but admire his fine figure from the back. His broad shoulders flexed as he moved his hand to mix the meal cooking in the pot on the fire. The grey cotton she wore under his apron hugged his masculine figure like a second skin. " Who would have thought that the great mafia leader who was sort after by the entire Nation would be a domesticated figure that cooks and cleans for his family?" Luca was absorbed with his work to notice her presence, but a smile graced his lips after hearing her voice."Well, little lady. Can you blame this
HIS DARK HORSE Their first meeting
The sun rose from its slumber with the majesty of a king. The tweeting birds welcoming the day were not left behind either. The air was thick with the remnant of the rain from the previous night. Even so, the cocks crowed as the trees swayed to the gentle blowing wind. What a beautiful morning. Lavender opened her eyes and let out a deep breath. She stretched her arms and stood up from the bed. Luca must have already left for the airport, she thought. She went into the adjacent room to conduct her morning rituals. Lee stood in the kitchen and started preparing breakfast for two. A few minutes into her cooking, she heard the soft pitter-patter of tiny feet moving towards her. Two tiny hands engulfed her lower body as it wrapped itself tightly around her. Lee's face lit up with a broad smile. She
HIS DARK HORSE The first day of work
She had initially intended to lash out at him and reprimand him for being rude but recalling where she was and why she was there, she changed her move. Standing before the man, " I am sorry, sir. You see, I am new here. I didn't know that the space was private. I thought it was for everyone. I am sorry."Alexander had an opportunity to look at the girl who was now apologizing. It was then that he realized how young she looked. She was probably 17 or 18 years old. What was such a young girl doing in his company's parking lot?"What is a little girl like you doing here? Do you have a driving license? Shouldn't you be in school?" he asked as he lowered his voice. This girl looked like she was the same age as his youngest sister. He couldn't help but soften his tone.She removed the badge given to her two days ago by Nancy and gave it to him. Alexander looked at the badge and almost dropped it out of shock. This little girl was his new secretary? What was Nancy thinking employing such a yo
HIS DARK HORSE His Approval
Alex found himself walking towards the two people talking in the corner. He felt compelled to seek out the laughter that had made his heart skip. As he approached Lee and Alvin, they stopped talking.Lavender looked up at her boss as he stood before them. " Mind sharing the joke? I don't mind sharing the laughter with you. " Alvin noticed how Lee had instantly become uncomfortable in Alex's presence. " Ugg, bro. You ruined the moment. You Ought to stay and talk to the clown and his daughter. I was having fun talking to Lee over here. By the way, I like your new secretary. I am sure we will get along just fine.The two people looked at Alvin with different expressions on their faces. Alex looked at his best friend with a warning glare while Lee had a subtle smile gracing her lips. " Shall we head to the office, boss?" She asked.Alex looked back at his secretary then at his best friend. " You can go ahead. I have something to talk about with Alvin. I want t
HIS DARK HORSE His family
His Family.Alexander had a surprisingly smooth day. When he woke in the morning, he had thought that since his secretary was no longer with him, he would have a rough day inducting the new secretary. He was proven beautifully wrong by the little girl. Boy, was he impressed! As he turned off his laptop and stood from his chair, his phone rang, eliciting a dazzling smile from him.“Hello, baby girl. What’s up?” He listened to the person on the other side of the phone smiling. He soon hung up the phone. Taking his briefcase and walked out of the door. He was surprised to find lavender still seated at her desk. Looking at the watch on his left arm, he felt compelled to ask, “why are you still around? Everyone must have gone home already.”Lavender looked up at her boss and responded, “You didn’t tell me what time I should leave the office, sir. I was waiting for your instructions.” Oh. I forgot about that. Maybe because
