LOVE AND LUST CHAPTER SEVEN (PAST)
Leila stood frozen.Her hands curled into fists.Adele Cooper had just declared war.Leila sat down on the couch, her mind was not focused on the accounts she was writing, the only thing she could think of was Adele Cooper and how she had openly threatened her. If there was one thing Leila had learned from watching soap operas, it is that the guy’s first girlfriend is usually dangerous. And Adele did not seem like the kind of person to make empty threats. Leila had to do something and she had to do it fast. She could not put all her trust in Gavin. Fine, she liked him and it was obvious that he liked her also but she already knew that their love story would not work out. It was just too magical to be true. A billionaire into her? Leila? It was not even believable at all. She had decided to take the next few days off in case things spiral out of control. But she was starting to get tired and irritated in the enclosed place she called home, she was not used to spending her whole day at

“Kiss me” Leila whispered the second time and that was all it took for Gavin to lean forward and take her mouth in his. The kiss was different, she could smell the mint and oud in his clothes, she moved closer so her fingers could brush his hair and he cupped her cheeks in his hand. This kiss was based on an approval from both of them in their normal state of mind, it was not influenced by anything or any kind of alcohol. It was strictly what they both wanted and Leila took her time exploring his mouth with her tongue, her lips and everything in her. Gavin pulled back and asked softly, his lips slightly swollen, “Should I stop or should we continue?”Leila flushed pink and replied in a raspy voice, “Don’t stop, please”Gavin smiled, “Truthfully, I have no intention to. Where is your bedroom?”Leila pushed his chest playfully, “On one condition bad boy Gavin Hasters”His laughter roared everywhere in the room. She had no choice but to smile, it was really cute and she realized it was

Leila’s head hurt, she felt a weight on the other end of the bed, that was when it dawned on her that Gavin was still at her apartment. She smiled like a teenager that just saw her crush. She was not the best judge of character but she knew that there was no other way to sugar coat it, ‘Gavin cheated on Adele with her for the second time’, she actually felt bad. If the tables were turned, she would have probably hated on the girl that was sleeping with her man too. She shrugged off the thought, it had happened and she did not actually regret it. Gavin slept peacefully beside her, she watched him sleep for a few minutes, while resisting the urge to plant a kiss on his forehead, it was probably too lovey dovey and since they were technically not in a relationship, she basically did not have the right to plant forehead kisses, it felt too personal and intimate. His eyelashes were too long for a guy and it took all she had to not brush her fingers on it. Gavin stirred in his sleep and s

Leila ushered Karen out of the apartment with a fake smile, she went back to the living room and sat down, for a minute she forgot that she was not alone. Gavin took long strides to where she was sitting, if she was correct, he looked angry. “Has Adele come to see you?” He asked with gritted teeth. Her first instinct was to lie, to tell him no, Adele had made it clear she did not want Gavin to know. But Leila wasn’t afraid of her. Not exactly. The woman was dangerous, yes—but in a sort of way that almost amused her. “Yes, but she said not to tell” Gavin eyes were bloodshot, “And you listened to her? Leila you are an adult for Christ’s sake. Why did you not tell me?” When did she come to see you and was it a neutral location? Why did you even go? Fuck! I have so many questions” Leila flinched, “She came to my house actually” “Fucking bitch. I have to go”. He rushed back inside to get his key and his coat. On his way out he called back to her without looking, “We need to talk abo

Leila’s head was spinning as she sat down alone in her apartment. She had called Gavin and he promised to circle back to her place, he had an important virtual meeting with some clients. The whole Adele issue could wait for a bit. Her phone chimed, she checked it and it was a message from Frank ‘I’m on my way sweets, traffic. Be expecting me in five’ She smiled. At least she was not going to be alone. She did not want to admit but she felt scared. Adele had taken a picture of she and Gavin last night and for all she knew, there was probably an hidden camera in more than one place. She felt naked, she did not like the fact that she did not feel safe in her own apartment. It was all annoying and Adele was at fault. Maybe a little bit was hers too, frolicking with an engaged man would definitely not go smoothly. She was not ready to have that conversation with herself nor anybody else for now. She just wanted to keep going with the flow with Gavin. What they had was special. Frank ba

Frank screamed in excitement, “We are getting an apartment darling! How did you manage to get an apartment from THE Gavin Hasters? You really need to teach me your ways”. He winked at her, “Is it that good” Leila was turning red, she could not believe that he actually got her an apartment. She was liking this guy more and more on a daily basis. He was just too good and she was proud of whatever it is that they are actually doing together, minus the Adele part obviously. Frank snapped his fingers, “Helloooo, Earth to Leila. What are you waiting for girl? Call him” Leila narrowed her eyes, “Do you think I should? I mean, I do not know what to say. I suck at this whole thing honestly” Frank rolled his eyes, “CALL HIM”. Leila dialed his number, it beeped twice before she heard the most sexy voice ever ‘Hey baby, missing me already? Should I switch to a video call? Use that avenue to show you the place’ Leila was grateful that he could not see her right now, she was blushing real

Leila was not expecting her mother to show up like this, in her apartment for Christ’s sake. I mean, she came off as a strong willed person but whenever her mother was around, she just felt like a child all over again and it was dragging her down almost every time, that was one of the main reasons why she left Cali in the first place. She loved her mom but it was better as a long distance relationship. “Mom, what are you doing here!?” She repeated. Her mother gasped in shock, “Am I not welcome in my daughter’s home?” It took Leila all she had not to roll her eyes, this was a family conversation and Frank should probably not be here to witness everything. Her family was a complicated but loving one, ever since she lost her dad, it has just been she and her mom. She just sighed and hugged her mom, she mouthed to Frank to leave and muttered an apology. She felt bad for doing this but her mother had ruined the plans. “Leila, See you at work tomorrow?” Frank asked. Leila nodded af

Leila sucked in a breath. This was the worst scenario ever, her mom meeting Gavin. How did she even want to introduce him to her? As her boss? She did not even know what they were doing, he could not possibly ask her out while he was still engaged to Adele. Her life was a mess at this point. She was thinking about a thousand things in her head, she had to think about a solution and she had to think fast. “Do you mind coming back later?” Leila blurted out. She was panicking as it is. Her mother would not let her hear the end of it if she made the mistake of introducing Gavin to her. Gavin raised his eyebrow, “Do you have a visitor? Or you do not want me in your house anymore?” He asked. “Leily? Have you been ambushed at the door”. Her mother asked again. Leila covered her eyes in embarrassment. Her mom was overly dramatic.Gavin chuckled, “You definitely do have a visitor, who is the person though?”“Well, it is my mom. Long story cut short, Adele gave her to me as a surprise treat”

LOVE AND LUST CHAPTER TWENTY ONE (PAST)
It took Leila all she had not to tear up. The apartment was the best gift she had ever received, her feelings were probably just everywhere but she was looking for different ways to thank Gavin for making her smile. The interior decor was plain white with a splash of grey, minimalistic and light just as she liked it, she was surprised he could guess her taste so well. The living room was large and compared to where she was living before? This living room was like three times the space of the other one. She actually smiled genuinely, not forced or anything. She was really happy. She looked up at him with teary eyes, “This is too much Gavin, too much”Gavin Hasters smiled, “Nothing is too much for you Leily-bear, I mean, I do not mean to be too forward or anything and I know we are just starting to know each other on a personal level but you have made me happy in the little time that i have known you than I have been with any other person. You are perfect baby and I would like to expres

Wait, he was kissing her in public, she tried pushing him off but he only stopped kissing her why he was ready and whispered in her ears, “If they want a show then that is what we are going to give them baby. I have nothing to lose”Leila ran her fingers through his head before kissing him back with everything in her. She kissed him passionately like he was everything and the click of a camera made her pull away from him. Her lips were kiss swollen and she looked flush. Damn! That was good. She smiled at him and he took her hands into his. She braced herself to look at the surroundings and she saw that they had managed to pull in a crowd. She was a little bit shy for having that public display of affection outside but she could not care less as it was. She had gone through so much today and that one kiss made her feel powerful, like a boss. Leila Baker knew she had a hold on Gavin but him breaking up with Adele? She thought it was extreme but she kept her thoughts to herself, she was
LOVE AND LUST CHAPTER NINETEEN (PAST)
Leila stood there, her head was throbbing, her day was looking like a curse at this point. She forced herself to not breakdown, the tears were threatening to come but she smiled through it, clearing her throat lightly before replying, “I am very sorry sir and respectfully, i do not think I would place myself in a position to lie on television. Mr. Hasters and I were at fault and I do not believe I should be the only one to take the fall for both of us” Mormont laughed sarcastically, “The meeting is over Miss Baker, you can help yourself out. Thank you.” Leila smiled awkwardly. She picked up the files from the table and took slow strides out of the room. While outside, she took deep breaths to calm herself down. She needed to talk to someone soon, she was on the verge of breakdown. Her phone beeped and she checked her lock screen, it was from Gavin, ‘How did the meeting go baby? Handled it well? I have no idea why Armstrong is blowing up my phone. Is something wrong baby?’ Leila
LOVE AND LUST CHAPTER EIGHTEEN (PAST)
Leila felt like time had stopped, her legs were beginning to hurt and her head was aching and she could feel her heart in her mouth and the list could go on and on. Everything was wrong today. She was already starting to regret why she came in to work today. She could have stayed an extra day and even if this happened, it would have given her an heads up and maybe she could have braced herself well enough and talked herself on how to cope with being the center of attention till the whole thing blew over. Leila Baker sighed, today was definitely going to be a long day and it was not even close to end of the work day for her. She was sure the meeting could not have lasted for more than ten minutes but it felt longer now that she thought about it. She felt like she was there and she was not also there. Like her body was there and her mind was somewhere else entirely. Someone clearing their throat brought her back to being present in the board room. “I asked if you were just his secr
LOVE AND LUST CHAPTER SEVENTEEN (PAST)
Jones left after throwing her tantrums and playing the victim like she was the ‘fiancée’. Leila sat down on the office desk, she was beyond humiliated, she was mortified. This was a nightmare. And there was nobody she could call right now. The meeting was in less than 30 minutes and she was very sure the board members would have hear about the SECRETARY SLEEPING WITH HER BOSS. Leila was so close to having a panic attack. The thing is, she was wrong to underestimate Adele. She braced up herself to text Frank, she knew he had not seen or heard anything, that is why he has not come rushing to her office. She dropped a quick emergency text for him and in less that two minutes, he was beside her. His expression was gloomy, he probably heard and did not want to tell her till after she was done with the meeting but Jones had told her and now she was not sure if she could speak boldly at the executive meeting. Those people that made up the board were selfish, rich and obnoxious people that di
LOVE AND LUST CHAPTER SIXTEEN (PAST)
Leila stepped into the company feeling like a boss. She felt really optimistic about resuming work. Everything was going smoothly for her. She got into the elevator that led her to the executive floor, that was where she stayed because she was the secretary to the CEO. And she was literally sleeping with him. The thought of it made her giggle. “Miss Baker, good morning, I heard you were feeling under the weather, hope you are good and feeling better now? Jone asked. Leila smiled in response and immediately the elevator notified her that it was her black, she left hurriedly. She did not mean to be rude but Skinny legged Jone always got on her nerves by acting sweet all the time even though almost every one knew she was a big gossiper that did not like her business. She could not deal with that today and given the type of mood she was in, she was sure the day would go on smoothly. She got to her desk and dropped her bag before going to Gavin’s office to check out the files that had
LOVE AND LUST CHAPTER FIFTEEN (PAST)
The alarm woke her up at exactly 6:45, Leila sat down on the bed, she did not realize she would get so used to being at home . Now to go to work had become stressful for her. She heard the distant sound of the Television, her mom had probably slept off while watching it. She had to remind herself that she loved her mom and she was not trying to be wicked but the relationship was better off as distant. Her life here in New York was way complicated than when she was still in Cali and her mom might not really understand the concept of the whole thing. Her head was throbbing, she needed to drink coffee to wake her up. She stood up and went directly to the kitchen, she peeped through the door and her mom was still fast asleep, she smiled. She had forgotten how her mom looked so peaceful when sleeping. Her alarm beeped again and she rushed back into the room. Crap. She did not even know what to wear, she picked out a grey pencil skirt and a white shirt to go with it, with black heels. She
