POV: Felix If only my father cared about me, but he doesn’t. He was cut off from his inheritance after he defied his father's orders and went overseas to pursue his career in modeling, just like my mom. His absence caused us our position in the family and that was why the whole family saw it as an opportunity to get rid of me, his heir, and take over. Mom stayed with me, but she gave up on the family and the company. She focused on her career, letting me fend for myself within the family.Gramps never gave up on me. He said he saw a part of him in me and that is why he didn’t cut me off like he did my father. Despite all the accusations and bullying in the family, he always gave me the chance to clear my name and I always did. I have no relationship with my father, he divorced my mom a few months after he was cut off and he never fought for custody, he doesn’t even call to check on me. “You know you need to have a woman by your side if you want your grandfather to completely relinqu
POV: SelinaCaught in the heavy downpour, I was forced to take a taxi back to our apartment. The bus takes a different route from where I live. I alighted at the bus stop that is a few blocks away from my apartment. If it wasn’t raining so heavily, I would have walked the little distance to my shared apartment with Amara. “Where the hell have you been, and why are you so wet?Jeez!You are messing up the floors I just cleaned. Didn’t I see you leave with the umbrella, what happened to it? You are not the forgetful and careless type. I’m pretty sure you didn’t misplace our only umbrella. Did the wind blow it away?” Amara asked me when I finally arrived with my clothes soaked. This is one of those day when I regret having a roommate. Ever since we became roomies, Amara questions me about every damn thing as if she were my mother. I know she won’t stop asking until I respond to her with a good explanation.“Damn!It must be raining like hell out there. How did you get home under such a
POV: Felix It’s Friday morning and I’m a bit ecstatic about today’s event. I have it all planned out, I made is possible for her interview to be done today. I want her to get the terms of her employment today, it’s going to be so cool. As I got up from my bed, I went to check on Lina in her cage. I smiled when I met her exactly go I’d left her. This is exactly how I want Selina to be, I want to know where she is and what she is doing at all times.“Get the technician to connect all cameras in the building to my office. I want to see everything that is happening today, I want to know what my little pet would say in her interview and I want to see her reaction to the job offer.” I instructed John. This interview will not be just about the job, I have specific questions I want her to answer today. I’m going to make the interviewer to ask her personal question. There are things I want to know about her, but she may never answer me honestly. So I’m going to use this interview to get those
POV: Selina“Okay, I know the interview didn’t go as planned, but I got the job, Amara!I’m in!Now it’s time to start bringing in the big bucks and start paying off the loan. I’m so happy, Ama, it’s a dream come true!” I let out excitedly as we both sat in our apartment and talked about my interview. There was a moment there when I wanted to lash out at the interviewer. I mean, what has my sex life got to do with the job, what does my preferred sexual partners have to do with anything?It’s just so sickening. It got more annoying when I was asked if Amara is my lesbian partner. Like, what the fuck is wrong with these people?I tried so hard to maintain my positive attitude and answer the questions. It would have been such a scandal if I’d lashed out or even slapped my interviewer. I felt so relieved when I got the job, and I signed the document presented to me quickly before they changed their minds. It had taken Simon a great deal to get me this job, I didn’t want to let him down.
POV: Selina“Get your filthy hands off her!” Someone screamed from the doorway. I was on the floor with my hands covering my face. I turned towards the sound of the voice and I saw him standing by the door, his face scrunched up in anger. He pounced on them and dished out punches in different directions. “My hero…You came for me, Felix, you saved me,” I called out to him after he took them down. He turned to me and offered a warm, comforting smile, “I can never stay away from you, Lina. I will never let you get hurt, I will always protect you.” He assured me, bringing his lips down to mine in a passionate kiss. We were still sharing our passionate moment when I heard someone calling me,“Selina, wake up!Wake up, Lina!Wake up, already!What happened here, what happened to you?” Amara called out to me, tapping me gently to get me to stand up.“Felix?Where is Felix?” I asked in my dizzy state, turning around to search for him.“Felix Yeats!Did he come here after I left, was it hi
POV:: FelixI saw her reaction when she saw her new apartment, it was divine, so beautiful. That is the look I want to be seeing on her face, I want her to be wowed by my surprises. At first, she was scared to see that she had been stalked. She was about to panic and run away, but I instructed the driver to tell her it had nothing to do with a stalker.“We always want our staff to feel at home, so we go the extra mile to make them comfortable. The interior designer was asked to design your apartment with things you are familiar with. And that is exactly what we have here. We hope you like it,” the guy told her in a professional tone that made her eyes go wide in shock. “This is beautiful, how did you pull it off without my knowledge?It’s Ama, isn’t she?She let you into my room to take pictures and design this for me. It’s so amazing, I love it. Why didn’t she tell me?” she asked in surprise. He had no answer to that question so he just nodded curtly and stepped aside for her to adm
POV: SelinaJeez!Living in this neighborhood is definitely going to be tough. Everyone is so snobbish and rude, like very rude. One lady bumped into me on the road and her groceries spewed on the road. She was so mean, and she made me pick them up for her even though she had been the one at fault. I was just dealing with her when a kid who was learning to ride a bicycle ran into me and knocked me down with his bicycle.“watch it, lady!” Was his only response to me as he picked up his bicycle and sped away, not minding if I was hurt. I bruised my ankle and knee on the floor, so I had to stop by a pharmacy and get some adhesive bandage to cover it up. I spotted him the moment I walked into the supermarket. There is no hiding place for the aura that surrounds him. With his figure and his looks, there is no way in hell that you would miss him in any place. He always stands out, his charisma and aura distinguishes him from everyone else. The moment I spotted him, I froze in place as I re
POV: FelixI was holding on to my self-control as if my life depended on it. I had to hold myself back from kissing her in the car. The thought of pushing her away forever was my driving force all night. I had to do everything in my power to keep my hands to myself. I exerted great effort to restrain myself from kissing and making out with her in the car and in her house too. When we had that conversation about food, I learned that she enjoys spicy food and I mentally noted that Selina Nash likes spicy food and ice cream. This will be at the back of my mind so I can always take her to a restaurant that serves spicy foods and I’ll make it a habit to get her ice cream too. I’ll use these treats to reward her when she listens to me and obeys my orders. So far, I’ve kept my motives a secret from her. Despite my strong emotions, despite how much I wish to stay back and keep her by my side. I did not linger long in her apartment. Like an expert, I skillfully eased her wariness, building f
