LOGINAlvara“Kai, slow down“ I rasped, trying to catch my breath in-between kisses. “We need to get inside“ Immediately we'd gotten to the motel room, Kai had instantly pinned me against the door and kissed the living breath out of me. Breathing heavily, he refrained from me. “Oh, right“ Sliding my hands into my jeans backpocket, I pulled out my room key card as it slipped into the lock with a soft click. I barely stepped in when Kai claims my lips once. The kiss started off soft but instantly quickened its pace. I could still taste the wine we'd shared earlier off Kai's tongue. It made our kiss intoxicating and extremely hot. My lips parted for more and Kai obliged. Without hesitation, he slid his tongue into my mouth. A soft moan escapes Kai's lips as he slowly begins to unbutton his shirt and throw it across the room. “Kai, take me to the bedroom“ I mumbled against his lips. “Please“ “My pleasure“ Whisking me up in his arms, I claimed Kai's lips as he stumbled forward into the
Kai“Where are you going?“ A feminine voice asked behind me, taking me by surprise the next day. A short shriek escaped my throat as I turned swiftly towards the direction of the voice. “Damn it, Clarissa. What are you doing here?“ I asked, turning back to the mirror as I adjusted my tie. “I've been here for the past 10 minutes“Shit. I'd forgotten Clarissa was at my house. “Oh. Have you?“ I questioned. “Sorry““You didn't answer my question, Kai“ She says, walking over infront of me and fixing my tie. “Where are you going? It's Saturday. You don't have any other engagements here in Germany““I'm meeting an old friend“It wasn't a lie. Besides, I couldn't bring myself to tell Clarissa that I was going on a date with my ex-wife. “We've been friends for the past three years, Kai“ She says, brushing either sides of my suit. “I can tell when you're hiding something from me“Clarissa didn't look nor sound happy so I decided there was no need to hide the truth from her. Letting out a
AlvaraLying down on the bed, I stared up at my bedroom ceiling as my mind replayed Kai's words. He'd asked us to start over but I'd asked for more time to think it over. “Alvara!“ A loud voice called out, snapping me out from my thoughts as I springed upright on the bed instantly and came face to face with Kayden—who had been standing by my bedroom door. “What is it?“ I asked, my heart still racing from how loudly he'd called out my name. “I've been calling you for like over three minutes or so“ “Sorry. My mind wandered off. Do you need anything?““Can I come in?““Yeah, sure you can“Pushing the door open completely, Kayden walked into my room and settled down on the bed. “Did everything go well over at the cafe?“ He asked. “You were spacing out a lot earlier“ I let out a short breath. I could talk to Kayden about things like Kai, right? He was much more older and mature now than he was three years ago. “I saw him“ I revealed. Kayden furrowed his brow, confused. “You saw who
AlvaraI thought Kai had been joking when he said he was outside my cafe—but there he really was. Staring at him in awe, I asked. “How did you find me here?““I didn't stalk you, just so you know“ He quickly clarified. “These last three years, any country I visited for work, I always checked out their cake and coffee shops since you spoke about wanting to open one. My being here is strictly coincidental“ He didn't forget me. I chuckled softly. “Do you want to come in?““If only you'd let me“Moving aside, I ushered him in. “Would you like something to eat or drink?“Kai settles down onto an empty chair. “I just want us to catch up, Alvara. How have you been all these years?““I don't really know how to put in words but I can assure you that I've been doing better than the Alvara of three years ago“A small smile splays across his face. “That's good to hear. And Kayden? You said he's getting better, right?““He is“ I informed. “Kayden started studying for med school. He wants to be
AlvaraI'd gotten a call as usual from Veklan, one of the workers from M&Cee bar that Keona, my best friend was drunk again. Without thinking, I quickly left my cake and coffee shop and headed straight to the bar. Veklan had been waiting for me out front. My main priority was getting Keona out of the bar and heading back to my shop so I'd be oblivious to the rest of my environment. Until Kai approached me. “Oh my goodness. Wow“ He chuckled nervously. “I'd planned out the words I'll say when I finally saw you again but now, my head is drawing blanks“My gaze drops low to the woman in his arms. For some reason, I suddenly had this unsettling feeling. “You have company“ I say. “Shouldn't you take care of her first?““Oh. Clarissa is just a—“ “I wish I could stay and chat, Kai“ I cut in “I really do but my friend is waiting for me“ “Can I get your number then? Or maybe an address?“ He asked. “Please, I've been worried about you“ I didn't have the time to drag the situation further
Kai“You're on fire, Mr Grayson“ Pete Helbulton, owner of Auto X motors says exchanging handshakes with me. “I never doubted your capabilities“ During the past three years, I'd changed my last name from Foley to Grayson. After doing that, I'd worked hard to put MIKROS TECH back on track. Taking any deal my hands across. Even if it meant going to other countries oversees. One of the many projects I'd taken on involved traveling over to Germany and sealing a deal with Pete Helbulton. Which brings us to why I was here. Fortunately, the launch of the latest Auto X car had been a success. Even though Pete said he never doubted my capabilities on this project, I knew it was fucking lie. But who am I to judge?Flashing my brightest smile back at him, I replied. “I'm just glad our sleepless nights paid off“ “Would you like to join us for a celebration toast?“ He asked. “If you don't have prior engagements—that is“Over my dead body, you fake fucker. “I actually have a meeting with someo
KaiFuck. I hadn't expected Father to show up at my door since after all he didn't come to the wedding. “Make me bang my fist on this door one more time, Kai Foley and I swear I will—“ I jerked the door knob open, “Lower your voice, father. My wife is-“ Father silence me with a hard smack agains
AlvaraKai walked back into the dining room. Face calm but jaw tight. “Who was it?“ I asked, quietly. “My Father“ I froze. Whenever Quinn Foley visited Kai, the result was always predictable and awful. “Did he say something that upset you?“ I asked. “You don't look so good““Tell me, Alvara. Wa
Alvara“Miss Alvara—!“ “Mr Kai—!“ The reporters calls out, rushing after us but we don't come to a stop until we got into the car. Closing the door behind us, Kai drives off. Letting out a relieved sigh, I say. “That was one of the most terrifying moments of my life“He chuckled, “You did good“
AlvaraThe next day, I exhaled standing in front of MIKROS TECH. It was back to work. I had to push back my personal feelings and make this project work at all costs. “Shall we?“ Kai asked, standing beside me. I nod. Side by side, we strolled into MIKROS TECH. Employees greeted us as soon as we
