April
"Don't worry King, i promise i won't forget to pick you up this time" I rose up and handed his leash to a pet service attendant in the hotel.

We arrived at the club in a limousine and minutes later we were in it. I wore a burgundy lacy bodysuit tucked under a black mini leather skirt paired with fishnet stockings and heeled boots.
I tried as much as possible to stay glued to my friends and avoid JC.
If there's one thing I'm craving to do right now, it's to tell my friends about what happened but that'll be a shame on me. They literally warned me not to have anything to do with him.
As we made way into the reserved VIP booth for us, I made sure to walk alongside Megan so i wouldn't be sitting with someone else. I was behaving like my old high school self and it made me cringe but i was not bothered. If that would keep me away from Jor
Chapter 17AprilAs the Elevator doors glided open on Jordan's floor I felt nervous than usual.Am I actually staring at the door of Jordan's room all naked beneath a trench coat? Did I actually sneak up here with dark shades on as disguise and heels?I've lost my mind and not even a second thought can snap me back--hell I'd broken three rules already, what's another one going to do?I snapped out of my trance when the doorknob slowly twisted and Jordan stepped into view. He looked at me inquisitively."How long have you been standing here?" His deep voice had the power to make me melt."I...not..a..a few seconds" I stuttered "a few seconds ago" I walked into the room and was jaw dropped to see the magnificent view. It looked way better than mine. More like a presidential suite.I didn't have enough time to take it all in because when he appeared before me, his lips p
Chapter 18AprilMy chest was heaving fast and my breathing heavy."Jordan" I called out as I continued the struggle to escape his grip.He finally murmured."Wake up" I slapped his arm to indicate how dire the situation was.Megan and Vanessa check their phones for gossip news every morning just like me what if they see this?I could totally debunk the claim but the look we exchanged seemed otherwise. Nothing I say can convince them."Hey tease," he said still half asleep.I shoved my phone screen at his face and his eyes opened wide abruptly.The headline gave the story away. He brought out his phone to call someone and when he finished he said, "It's been taken care of""How?""Don't worry your pretty little head, this article won't survive the next hou

Chapter 19AprilIt's been four days since we got back from the trip and two more days to the grand wedding.I'd gone with Megan and Vanessa for our final dress fitting and everything was sheer perfection.As her Bridesmaids, we settled for an ankle-length Straight burgundy gown made from thick chiffon material. It had a low neckline that highlighted our cleavage.I rubbed King lee's head as we watched one of my favorite shows on Tv.And for the umpteenth time today, Jordan called me again and like i did before, i didn't respond to his calls.*Are you avoiding me?*His text read.I honestly don't know what I'm doing right now but i know I need to stay very far away from his hurtful body.Since we got back to NYC, i had tried every possible means to maintain my distance and that's going to continue even at t
Chapter 20AprilPresent Day"I'm coming" I screamed with a mouthful of cake, rising up to my feet from the sofa in the living room to get the door.I saw only the neck of the person through the peephole and wondered who it could be this Sunday morning.I was certain it couldn't be Jordan since I didn't tell him where i lived. But i was wrong.I opened the door to see him glaring at me.I wanted to quickly go back inside and shut the door but as if he knew, he quickly entered through the vulnerable space i left open."You may come in," i said sarcastically, shutting the door behind me."I've already given you one whole week to get your proud ass together and I'm taking no more. " He turned around to face me. "What's all this about?""What's what about?" I folded my arms and intentionally acted unaware of the
Chapter 21Jordan"So what have you been up to this past few weeks I've been away" Belcarlis my friend since college and Lawyer said."Nothing new," I said with my eyes fixed on the laptop before me on my desk."I saw the picture before I assume you must have taken it down""What picture?""Oh common dear friend, I've known you for a long while to know the way you looked at that lady isn't ordinary and you damn well know the picture I'm talking about" she crossed her legs and sunk in further into the chair she's seated.It took me a while to consider telling her before the reveal i have planned in a few days at the anniversary.Bel was one of the people i trust hence why i made her my trust advisor."I am in love with her" I scoot my laptop aside to focus on our discussion.She gawked
Chapter 22AprilI arrived at my mother's place in time for breakfast. She placed kisses on my cheeks after I dropped kinglee on the floor."Hey April" Mathew, my stepdad said as he emerged down the stairs.
Chapter 23AprilJordan had requested we go to his place tonight and I obliged without hesitating.Throughout the journey down to his home, we couldn't take our hands off each other. We kissed until our lips felt sore.As soon as we stepped into the mansion, he gave me little time to admire the beauty and kissed me instead. He led me to the kitchen and made me sit on the wide countertop kissing, and cupping my face with both palms at the same time.He pulled away from the kiss "come with me" He took me up the stairs into a very massive room."Alexa, Play bed by J Holiday" He commanded, and shortly af
