Drake

"So tell me!" Her voice suddenly echoed, jolting me from my reverie. For a moment, I was sinking deep into my thoughts. I tried to know what her thoughts were but each time that I was closer to getting a clue, I came up with nothing. I looked at her briefly and just when I wanted to talk, she started to talk.

"I was curious, " I said, puzzled. What could she be curious about? "Do you have someone in your life? Like, are you in a relationship?" I chuckled slightly. That question was quite unexpected. I quickly gathered my thoughts.

"Why did you ask? Why are you curious about it?" I asked in a low tone, tilting my head back to look at her as she said nothing. She smirked. What was going on? All of a sudden, she changed, started acting, and was a whole different person.

"I don't understand. I have the right to know every detail of who is on my payroll. Plus, I want to know your reason." She talked slowly like she was counting her words as they escaped her lips. There was a moment of silence as we continued the ride.

"I don't think that information is necessary and secondly, I don't have to keep reminding you that I am on your father's payroll and not yours. I work for your father and not you. You just happen to be my job, and trust me, you are a tough job." Her facial expression was unreadable. She gave me a straight face as if she were thinking of what to say next.

"All I have to do is make a call. Tell my father that you...." I interrupted her right in the middle of her speech.

"That's what exactly, Cassy? That I rejected you when you made advances to me? What do you think he is going to say or do?" My voice was slightly raised to instill fear, but she showed that she was the true daughter of her father. She countered me with a louder tone, just as he father would do.

"Do you think raising your voice would make me go back on my words? You know what, I don't want you to be my bodyguard anymore. I don't want you to be around me. It has been nothing but chaos ever since he mentioned your job. So I want to change the narrative." She seemed angry. I knew the best thing to do at this point was to keep shut and let the tension ease out.

"Turn the car around. I don't want this anymore." I didn't hesitate. I turned the car back around. My heart raced faster in my chest, behind the wheel. Did she really mean what she had just said? I mean, how would I be, knowing that she was being taken care of by someone else? I heaved a heavy sigh, waiting patiently for her to talk.

The drive back to the house was silent. She walked straight to her room and I went back to mine. I paced around the room, my mind was unsettled as many thoughts rushed through my mind. J took several deep breaths to ease the tension in my chest but it only got worse. Just then, my phone began to buzz. Seeing who was calling, my heart left my chest for a moment. The whole world came to a standstill and time paused for a moment. It was him, her father. Could they have talked, and he was calling to withdraw me from the job? I took a deep breath before I dragged the answer button to pick up the call.

"Hello, sir." I tried to be as calm as ever, not to give off any sign of instability.

"Drake!" His voice was sharp and direct. That made my heart skip a beat. I cleared my throat slightly to sound clearer.

"Yes sir! Is everything alright boss?" I asked, trying to find out what was going on with him.

"I should be asking you that! What is going on Drake?" Now he threw the question back at me and that left me confused. Unsure of how to answer his question. I didn't know if he had spoken to his daughter and she had carried on with her threats. I paced around the room slowly as I tried to come up with a perfect reply.

"Everything is going well boss. We just arrived from a drive-around. She wanted to get familiar with the environment before she resumed her internship tomorrow." I explained slowly, preparing my ears to hear a yell but the opposite happened.

"That explains why I have been calling her and she is not picking up." I heaved a heavy sigh of relief as I placed a palm over my forehead.

"I think so. Perhaps she is just taking a shower in the bathroom. You don't have to worry about anything. I am here." I assured him and the call ended immediately. I tossed the phone on the chair in the corner. Many thoughts rushed through my mind. I cannot stay in this loop. I knew that I had to choose between fucking my boss's child and getting my head blown off, or being professional and staying clear of her, even though she was all I wanted. I inhaled deeply. I had to go and knock on her door.

The door opened and I walked inside. She was in a bum short and a see-through top. I could see boobs as they hung firmly on her chest. I tried to lower my gaze but her thick thighs weren't helping me at all either.

"What brought you here? Is there anything left for you to say?" She asked in a low tone as she continued to walk towards her bed. I shook my head slightly before I started to talk.

"I just realised that I shouldn't have raised my voice at you." I paused for a moment, hoping that she was going to say something but she stayed quiet.

"See, if we don't agree with each other, there is no way I can do my job to the best of my ability." She didn't let me finish before she interrupted me.

"I agree." She said in a low tone.

    CassyAside from the fact that Drake was being annoying, I was feeling anxious as well. I walked into the office, and Drake tried to walk in with me, but I didn't like the idea. I turned around, facing him."You can wait outside. I got this." I said in a low tone. He hesitated for a while as his eyes continuously darted between me and the director. After a while, he exhaled heavily, looking me deep in the eyes before talking."I will be outside." He murmured but I heard what he said. I gave him a nod and he walked out of the office, shutting the door behind him. I heaved a heavy sigh as I turned back to face the director to greet him properly."I am sorry about that director. My name is ...." He didn't let me finish what I was saying before he completed it on my behalf. "Cassandra Orlov. You will be a manager in the company. Your father and I spent ample time talking about you and your recent achievements in college. That's why you...." I had no patience to wait for him to finish wh

  • My Bodyguard and Me    Chapter Ten

    CassyIt was my first day as an intern. Excitement rubbed with anger filled my being as I prepared for my first big day. I didn't let anything distort my thoughts, not even thoughts about Drake. I stood there in front of the mirror, admiring myself. I smiled for a while before I walked out of the room."Good morning, Cassy." Drake greeted, and I nodded in response to his greetings. Last night was a disaster, and I just didn't want to think about it, but being in his presence makes all the memories flood my mind. "It's your big day. Your first day as an intern." Why was he trying to hold a conversation with me? His job was to protect me, and he was already doing that. There was no reason to hold any conversation with me. I was silent for a while, trying to focus on what was ahead of me. How I was going to answer the questions that would be thrown at me. "I guess you are too excited and anxious at the same time. Trust me, that was the exact feeling I got when I applied for my first jo

    CassyThe sun gradually dimmed, covered with clouds and the sky became unclear. That was an indication that it was about to rain. I moved away from the window back to the centre of the room. As I walked, I noticed a door in the corner of my room. I made a scrunching face, surprised as I walked closer to the door, wondering where it led. I placed my hands on the doorknob and just as I was about to open the door, a knock came on the door and I was jolted back to reality. I walked back to the centre of the room before I responded."Come in!" The door opened immediately, revealing Drake as he stood there with a pale look. I didn't know what he came for. He walked in slowly and jammed it."I want to have a word with you." He said, and I raised my eyebrows in surprise. What could it be that he wanted to talk about? I signalled that he sit down, but he shook his head, rejecting the offer."What is it that you want to talk about?" My voice was barely above a whisper, grunting as I tried to si

  • My Bodyguard and Me    Chapter Seven

    CassyInternships had always been something I wanted to try out. I mean, what was the need to spend all those years in school just to end up caged in the house as if I were the most important person in the world. I understood that my father was trying to be a dad after he left us all these years but he needed to understand that it could not happen by restricting me to the walls of the house like a prisoner. As we drew closer to our destination, I could not help but feel excited, but the thought of him staying with me and even sharing the same condo always cut my excitement short. He sat there across from my chair in my father's private jet. Each time I tilted my head towards his direction, his eyes were always on me. I only wondered what was going through his mind the whole time. Finally, the announcement came from the pilot that it was time for landing. He cleared his throat to break the long silence and I was jolted back to reality."You need to buckle yourself and prepare for lan

    Cassy "Satisfying!" The first real word that came out of my mouth was after a tense moment of playing with myself. I could not help but chuckle lightly as my own voice reverberated in my mind. A thought suddenly crept into my mind in the middle of recalling what I had just done."Going to live with him. Sharing a condo with him wasn't a good idea. It was only going to worsen the feelings. The attraction and need for me to get in bed with him." I let out a heavy breath as I tried not to think about it. I knew it was almost impossible to talk my father out of the idea of allowing Drake to go with me. I became confused. Even if it was going to be really uncomfortable staying with him, I still preferred him over anybody else. Wild thoughts filled my mind and I just could not help but turn to the other side of the bed, hoping to sleep away all the bugging thoughts. Each time that I closed my eyes, the only things I saw were his images. How perfectly shaped he was, his pointed nose and s
