Adrian's POV

I hadn't seen anyone look as amazing as she did in her purple outfit. The color had never looked better on anyone else either.

Her transulent skin glowed under the skin of her dress and her hair pulled up in a ruffled ponytail gave her facial features a whole new look.

I stood afar off, watching her sway her hips gloriously from side to side as she walked towards a table, her bare back begging to be touched.

Damn! How could someone look so effortlessly beautiful the way she does.

The strands of hair that played gayly on her face and the way she peeled them off behind her ears, her crimson red lips that gave a pop of colour to her skin tone, all fascinated me so much, I could feel my mouth water.

"Hello, Adrian. Are you with me?"

I heard the lady with me ask.

She wasn't my date or anything of that sort. In her words, 'I had seen you walk in and felt it would be nice to get to know you better.'

And of course, being the gentleman that I was, I couldn't turn down such a pre

I’m sorry if Adrian feels embarrassed but Jade told you no. You persisted and she still told you no. Then she slapped you. I don’t know why yet. Him feeling the need for revenge is ridiculous

  • My Contract Boyfriend    25. Toyed with.

    Jade's P O VHe was already too close to meBut he got even closer. Dangerously closer. Dangerous in the sense that I could feel all his masculinity pressing hard against my now feeble body that still remained in his arms like a wet leaf. I wanted to scream and run But I couldn't move an inch away from him. I remained frozen in place with each breath harder than the previous till I was thrown into a chokehold when his lips seized mine again with this high level of possessiveness that made my knees weak. I wanted to back away but my Body continued its betrayal. Against my wish, my fingers found their way to the nape of his neck and lingered on for as long as our lips continued working together and it didn't just stop there. His hands worked the buttons of my shirt and I didn't fight it one bit. 'Once beaten, Twice shy' -But with Jade, it's probably a million times beaten, never shy.The little voice of reason in my head told me for a fact I'll regret this later but I chose to igno

  • My Contract Boyfriend    24. Humiliation at its peak.

    Jade's P O VI gasped at what I had just done but another gasp sounded entirely louder than mine and that pulled my attention to the door where Miss Antonio now stood with wide eyes and some files in her hand looking at me like one would a person who is about to get a death sentence but for a minute I just couldn't conclude whether it was pity or satisfaction. She slowly took backwards steps till she was out of his office again and she made sure to shut the door on both of us leaving me to my fate in the hands of Adrian who breathed as Heavy as the sound of thunder. With a hard and laboured gulp, I raised my eyes to meet his furious gaze and although I really wanted to apologize, my lips produced no sounds as they opened and close without audible words. Since my mouth was of no use, I decided to put my hands to work by peeling off his buttons so I could take care of the mess on his shirt I had created. My fingers fumbled between each button and his intense gaze wasn't helping at al

  • My Contract Boyfriend    23. In Trouble Again.

    Jade's P O VWe began the next morning with both of us passed out side by side on floor just a few steps away from the door of my apartment still dressed in the same outfit we had on from the club and even our shoes were still firmly strapped to our feet. It's a surprise we could navigate the way back home because the moment we both left the club after the scene I caused, it wasn't hard to miss how drunk we both were. So wasted that we couldn't even bring ourselves to wave down a taxi which might actually be a good thing because the last time we boarded a taxi in a drunken state, Val puked all over the back seat and the Driver went nuts on both of us. I was awakened this morning by the harsh impact of Val's hand slapping across my face in her attempt to roll over to a different position. I naturally would've screamed at her to get off of me but the striking ache In my head didn't let me voice out my harsh morning temper. Slowly, I pulled myself up to a sitting position after tossi

  • My Contract Boyfriend    22. Works of Resentment.

    Jade's POV.After a long day of Valerie clearly cheating to win me at board games, we decided to wrap the night with a visit to the club a couple of minutes drive downtown. A combination of red and blue dance hall lights greeted us as we walked in. I walked closely behind an already vibing Valerie past sweaty bodies dancing to the tune of a very loud unrecognizable song on the dance floor. Valerie kept her dance on until we finally got a glimpse of the bar. “Hey Tommy.” Val called out loud, leaning forward on the table with a sweet grin she flashed the bartender who already had his eyes on us.“Ayyy! Val, Jade, what's up girls? I haven't seen you girls for quite some time now.” he greeted heartily in his usual charming way.We were a bit of regulars at the night club but we haven't really stopped by for a long while. It was surprising he still knew our names or even recognised us, given we haven't been here in like a year or two.“I know right? Funny you still remember us." Val repl

  • My Contract Boyfriend    21. Cheers to Forever Single.

    Jade’s POV.I couldn’t believe I was being coaxed by Valerie into talking about my encounter with that d*ck of a guy. That memory is one I would prefer should stay buried but no, I have to relive it again else, I won’t hear the last of it from her.“There is nothing to talk about, really.” I started.“But there is something.” “Well, it’s not one I really want to talk about because at first, he looked charming and all. I had seen him come out of the pool at the resort for the first time and I immediately thought to myself, ‘damn he’s fine.’ I took a long dramatic pause as the image from that day started to replay in my head right from the moment his dripping wet bare torso came in view before me. I swallowed hard as I tried to push the images behind me and focus entirely on Valerie who was now getting so impatient to hear the rest of the story I really don't wanna tell. “We hit it off pretty well but tragically, I realized later that he was more of a douche than a fine hunk of a gu

  • My Contract Boyfriend    20. Day off.

    Jade’s POV.After my episode with Miss Antonio, I asked to be excused so I could go home for a change but instead of a short break from work, she asked me to take the entire day off.In her words, “Don’t think I’m letting you off easy. But my hands are tied. So just take the rest of the day off and make sure that by the time you return, you’ll be giving me no more headaches.” “Giving me a day off is not necessary ma’am. I am well rested and only need to have a quick change of clothes.” I replied.“Miss Shelton, between the two of us, who gives the orders?” she asked, glaring at me.“You ma’am.”“Now when I say take the rest of the day off, you take the day off, no questions asked. Unless you want me to make working here a living hell for you for refusing to follow my orders.” She threatened and I smiled to myself.“My life is already a living hell here.” I mumbled.“Did you say something?” “No ma’am.” “Well? Go going then. I’m getting tired of seeing that face of yours and I have t
