Chapter 52First kissRuby's Pov;I woke up with a heavy migraine, which hit me hard as soon as I opened my eyes.I struggled to open my eyes and sit up straight and suddenly, my eyes ran into his.Those blue dazzling eyes were setting my skin ablaze.His face was cold as ice and his gaze didn't leave my body. It traced and followed every movement I made.He suddenly stretched out his hand to mine and pulled me up gently.He came closer and placed a pillow at my back in support." Hey!" he sat back and said.I fiddled with my fingers, staring down at them.He used his fingers to lift up my chin and stared into my eyes." How are you feeling?" he asked calmly.I couldn't tell what time of the day it was.To be honest, I was still feeling weak and dizzy...maybe I didn't sleep enough.The door creaked open and a maid walked in.I looked around to see I was in my room at the mansion.A disappointed look appeared on my face as I was expecting him to take me to the penthouse.She dropped a
Chapter 53First nightRuby's Pov;The dim immaculate light gave a tender touch to the atmosphere as his soft and large arms grazed my skin...softly.I stared deeply into his eyes, my heart thumping hard against my chest.My chest became heavy and I let him take over my body. His scent filled my nose and his hands were all over him.He soon stopped kissing me and took his left hand in between my thighs, stroking it slowly.I let out a soft moan as he used his index finger to trail up and down my thigh.It was heavenly and I bit my tongue in pleasure.I shut my eyes tight, my hands still wrapped around his neck.He gently let go of my hand and took his head down. He brought it to my thighs and placed it there.I shivered at the hot air that escaped from his mouth to my thigh.I grabbed the bed sheet immediately and he started using his tongue to graze my skin.It was torture. He was torturing me, so much, but I loved every bit of it.Why? Why do I love it?.I felt this hot air in my t
Chapter 1Meeting the StaffersRuby's Pov;" Wait here Michael. Lemme go get you another cone of ice cream " I said to my little brother as I hurried out to go get him another ice cream. The one with him was finished.I was on my way, when I felt a beep. My phoneI brought it out and checked who was calling, then smiled seeing who the caller isDiane. My best friend.I picked it up and placed it on my left ear with a huge smile on my face." Hey girlfriend" she cheered happily into the phone. That's her usual tone though- always happy and excited; there's never a dull moment with her" Whatsup" I cooed" Guess what?" she said excitedly, making me wonder whatsup" You know very well I can't guess - am not good at it" I said, hoping she'll just skip the whole guessing part and tell me" Just try" she persisted." Diane, I can't please; just tell me" I whined, as I got closer to the ice cream vendor.I have to hurry, because my brother is alone at the park." Okay, killjoy! It's about Lo
Chapter 2De MartinsRuby's Pov;" What's it, Dad?" I asked during breakfast.He forced a smile at me and shook his head. I know he's lying, but what can I do?I let it slide as I served breakfast. Michael looked excited and already dressed up for summer classI don't get why Dad had insisting on him going - I hate summer class like hellI finished dishing theirs ,and dished mine before taking my seatI watched Dad closely from the corner of my eyes.I knew something's wrong - something's definitely amidst.I started noticing it, from the day he told us there will be no vacation for us.I had gotten so angry and furious and had locked myself up all day; but then I had a rethink - he's never done that before.Dad loves spoiling us with gifts, and since I was a kid, we've always been going to vacations - term in, term out. We've never missed it; so it didn't make sense to get angry at him, just this onceI tried to make him tell me what was wrong, but he wouldn't; I know all isn't well.

I had a meeting with the board of directors some days back" he informedI arched my brows, although he couldn't see me" W...why?" I asked lowly" They are worried, son. They think your reason of being there isn't yielding in any way - its not bringing any help.We haven't seen results" he cooedI itched my forehead with my index finger" I'm trying my best, Dad. I'm still meeting with them today. I believe there'll be progress when I get there. I've alre

What did you just say?" I let out with fury.They stared at me awkwardly." Come on girls, let's just leave her and go our way. I don't think she's okay" another said, and that angered the hell out of me.I walked to their car and towards the one that had said it." I sat you to repeat what you just said…to my face" I challenged, burning with anger and fury " I dare you"" Come girl, she's not worth it.

He asked , all smiles." No Michael. I was in a hurry, but I promise to get you something on our way home" I told him, playing with his hair as he stood up. He giggled happily." Thanks a lot ma'am" I said appreciatively to the teacher .She gave me a smile and a small nod." Just make sure to never repeat it. It's a good thing I was still there and I don't have anything doing" she said.
