FAZER LOGINI stayed frozen at the edge of the stairs. Why did those words make me sad? Those were the words I’d been waiting weeks to hear, but now that I’d heard them, they didn’t bring any ounce of joy. Didn’t I want to leave anymore because he was back?“Finally,” I said lazily, making my way up the stairs.His eyes followed me as I walked. I glanced at him for a second and quickly turned away.I plopped down on the bed when I reached my room and psychoanalyzed everything that had just played out. I scoffed. He said I was jealous about him meeting Lucas. Me? Mia? Jealous? Such a sick bastard. I mean, who the fuck does he think he is? I placed a hand on my chest. It was racing. I began to feel sweaty and started fanning myself with my hands.A knock came on the door. It was Adrian.“Ma’am, may I come in?” I heard her say.“Yeah, sure. Come in.”She opened the door and bowed politely. She was holding a light-blue suitcase, which she gently set down on the floor.“The master asked me to bring th
I sat down, staring at the entrée of food without meeting his gaze. The morning sunlight streaming through the floor-to-ceiling windows.“You look well. My staff must have been doing a good job.”“Yeah,” I said, raising my gaze slightly to meet him before dropping it again. “Yeah, they’re the best, really.”He didn’t look away. He just kept that gaze on me, boring into my soul.“You don’t seem happy to see me.”“Why are you back?”He didn’t reply. He just gazed at me.I stared back, neither of us breaking eye contact. The room seemed to disappear.After what felt like twenty minutes, he smirked. “This is my house. I can come in whenever I want.”I smiled softly despite myself. “Now that you’re back, I take it that I can leave here, right?”His expression softened slightly. “How have you been?”I ignored the question. “When can I leave here, Rafiah?”He remained silent.“You spent quite a while in LA. Then you just waltz back in here like nothing happened. I’m just about done with all
I can’t believe it’s your wedding today,” Onika said.“I know, right? After the hiccup with my boss, I’m glad I was able to make the right decision. It would have been really bad if Lucas found out too.”“Mia, let’s not have unhappy thoughts and memories today,” she said, adjusting my veil on my hair properly. “You look so pretty. Oh my gosh.”“Do you think Dave would love this outfit? What do you think his face would look like when he sees me?”“I bet his mouth would open like this,” she said, making faces and poses.I burst out laughing. “Onika, don’t make me ruin my makeup.” The buzzing started softly at first. Then suddenly the entire room seemed to come alive with vibration after vibration, like something was spreading through it. I frowned. “Who could be sending so many messages at once?” Onika reached for her phone first. And then she froze. Her expression changed immediately.“What…” her voice dropped.“What is it?” I asked.She didn’t answer at first. Just slowly turned the
The warmth of Mia’s breath came down his body. After their encounter at the office, Rafiah never shook her off his mind, but he knew he had to. He opened his eyes and saw the prettiest girl lying right next to him. Her perky breasts rested against the sheets while her round buttocks lay exposed beside her.He rolled slightly, careful not to wake her up. Slowly, he stood up from the bed and took one more look at her sculpted body before pulling her robe gently over her naked skin. Then he leaned down and kissed her softly. For this to work, she had to believe none of this happened.He quietly walked toward the door and stepped into the hallway.One of his men immediately straightened when he saw him come out of Mia’s room, but he wisely kept his face blank like he hadn’t seen anything.“Boss.”“Wake the girls up,” Rafiah said coldly. “Pay them and get them out before Mia wakes up and sees them.”“Yes, boss.”“We take off immediately to LA.”The man looked slightly confused. “Boss, the
I jolted up from the bed, sweaty. I looked around. Nobody was there. I was all alone. This isn’t possible. I checked the time. It was 4AM.Did he sneak out?I clearly remembered sleeping without clothes, but now I was fully clothed. My body still felt limp, but I was drunk last night, so that was probably why. I started retracing my steps in my head. We got back to the villa. I slept for a bit. Woke up to get water. That was when everything happened. Or… did I leave the water and go back to bed? I checked my body again. I was still wearing my robe.“This doesn’t make any sense,” I whispered. My heart was beating so fast now. Did I really imagine all of that? The touching. The kissing. Him carrying me back here. The way he held me afterwards. No. It felt too real. I touched my lips unconsciously.“Did that actually happen?” I muttered to myself. I wanted to call him immediately. “Hey, did we meet up after dinner last night?” I should probably say that. Fuck. I didn’t even have my phone
Every part of me wanted this. I wanted him. But I would be crazy to say I didn’t feel even an ounce of guilt. The thought was still sitting at the back of my mind inconveniently like it was something I was trying to ignore but couldn’t fully erase. I stayed silent while he carried me out of the room taking me back to my room and he set me down on the bed. The walk felt unreal and my mind wasn’t fully catching up.He bent down beside me and kissed me passionately. “Why didn't you go to bed?” he asked as he fondled my breast. I moaned quietly. “I was. I woke up and came out to get water.” My voice came out softer than I expected.”Who were those girls?”“They’re Parisian models. You were just doors away, but I knew we couldn’t do this. Now even after inviting them over here we are.” He avoided my eyes for a second, after saying it.“Yeah— Here we are.” My hands pressed against the sheets.He slipped his hand from my breast and placed it between my thighs, trailing upwards as his lips
That night recap **** Raf never saw me the way I saw him. Before I knew who he was to Lucas, I had always admired him. The way he commanded respect by just his aura, how heads turn when he walks into rooms. But after finding out his affiliation with my brother that feeling and attraction comp
Rafiah’s Pov **** Mia walked in just as Raf was entered the conference room. He saw her, exchanging pleasantries at everyone but didn't look at his directionHe noticed the brown skirt she had on, it caught his attention, it fit her in a way that made it hard to look elsewhere, just how he like
I walked into the office wearing my nude blazer, a brown camisole and a brown mini skirt, with my white socks and black high loafers.I looked like a real time baddie, I had my hair up in a messy bun and attached my fake hair fringe clip. I usually wear contact lenses but today I opted for my actu
I couldn’t sleep that night, not really.Every time I closed my eyes I saw the office door again, half open. Him behind the desk saying my name like I was his designated mistress— and everything that happened after.I kept tossing and turning on the bed. My lights were off but standing up from the
