Chapter 3

Gray’s pov

Her grey curls and elegant presence clouded my mind, and everything in the clearing seemed to have faded away, leaving just the two of us. My eyes stared dreamily.

I was drawn to her. I longed for her in a way that was new to me, a way that made everything else irrelevant.

My hands swiftly came out of my trousers pocket and nervously adjusted my tie, trying to compose myself and make me look presentable but I just couldn’t control the urge. They were killing me, she was vulnerable and drunk.

I was going to take advantage of her, how did I become a monster? I kept withdrawing myself from her but I was drunk and weak too.

My lips brushed hers, and I felt her soft lips pressed against mine, my hands traced her cheeks, as she gently blushed shying away.

She closed her eyes and slowly surrounded herself with me.

I wrapped myself around her, and held her closed as I inserted my cock inside her, she screamed and whispered, begging for more.

I had never felt so alive and loved before, I wasn’t sure of this woman but there was something different about her, I could feel it.

“Wake up, man”

I was shaken out of my thoughts by Theo.

“Don't tell me that you are still thinking about that woman. I'm glad I drank you last night. But what I don't understand is how you ended up with her, cause she wasn't the one I assigned for you last night. What could have happened? Theo said lost in his thoughts.

“I had my men investigate. Turned out Sophia equally drank her and set her up with an old man, both the man and lady you set me up with, got lost and entered the wrong room.

Why would you even do that? I have warned you to stay away from my personal life, I am not interested in all these ladies. Stay away from me, man.” I snapped Theo, giving him a cold look.

“I get, I get. But why did you lie to her that you didn't remember any single thing? You took advantage of her, bro. You could have just walked away but instead, you had fun. Theo whispered teasing me.

“ I really can't tell, there is something different and odd about her, she reminded me of her. After all these years, was she alive, was that why I got comfortable with Lena the other night? I need to keep Lena closer to me, she might be the one. But for now, I need Sophia to be dealt with. She needs to learn.” I urged as I blazed in anger clenching my fist.

“Why are you suddenly interested in this girl, just let her go. I have already cleared my curiosity. Let's pretend nothing happened and just move and give the media a few days, everything will die off.” Theo suggested sipping his drink with a satisfied smile.

“You started this and you must finish it”. I yelled at Theo causing him to shake in fear as he slowly moved from my side.

“ Don't tell me that you believe Lena is probably Oliv? That can't be possible, it's been ten years already, have you forgotten how we searched for her and we got nothing. Thought you'd moved on when you instructed we stop the search. I understand that she looks so much like her but she can't possible be Lena. If she was Lena, why hasn't she come to you after all these years.”. Theo said, his eyes filled with worries and concerns.

“I don't know, I guess we have to revisit the case,”I uttered growling.

Lena pov.

I sat in Gray Suv's car as his bodyguard drove me to my house, I kept taking a glance at him as he drove in silence.

I wasn't sure if I was to ask after Gray or why he was helping me, I remained silent as I gently stepped out of the car, beeding him farewell as I walked to my doorstep.

I found my way to the bathroom and took a quick shower, I was too exhausted to eat, so I headed to my bed trying to recall today's event when I got a notification on my phone

“Whatever it is that you think that you are doing with Gray, you better end it for your good. Gray isn't into ladies, he just wants to use you. He will never love or take you seriously.

The more time you spend with him, the more chances I am likely to release your sex tape with him.

Have a great day and life.

Gray boyfriend.”

“Sex tape!?” I snapped jumping out of the bed, painting around, not sure of what to do and who to call.

I can't possibly call Lily, I already lied that I didn't do anything with Gray.

How can he be gay and still lie that he's engaged to me, he must be a very selfish person. What exactly does he want from me, I am not even his class.

I have to text back and explain everything to his boyfriend.

I texted back, explaining everything, and begged him not to release my sex tape, as I was never going to get close to Gray again.

I waited, hoping for a reply and I just got a text back.

“You don't have to stay away from Gray. I need you to get close to him. He has a terrible background history and he needs me to most now, but I traveled out for studies, so, I need you to be always available for him but remember that I am watching you, in case you try to find your way to his pants.

Mind you, Gray should never know that I texted you, or I will release your sex tape.

Bye, Gray boyfriend”

Why should I do such tasks, why won't he just come back and take care of his boyfriend himself, instead of assigning me to a task with a threat?

I wasn't sure of what to do or say. I turned off my phone and went to bed, hoping for a better tomorrow.
