I kept holding her in my arms and looked at the slight morning light entering the room through the window indicating it’s morning.The door to the room opened and I saw Doctor Sarah coming into the view and she said.“Mr. Risso, she needs rest.”“I’m resting only, Doctor.” She said and I felt her hot breath fanning over my neck. “I need to ingest this injection, Ms. Valerina.” She said coming forwards.She tightened her hold on my shoulders when I tried to lift her off from my lap.“I guess you would have to cooperate with the position.” I said and she chuckled, nodding her head.I took Rozine’s hand off my shoulder which had IV and forwarded it towards the doctors. I held her soft and slim wrist in my arms while the doctor injected it. God! She’s soft. Shut up, Jackson! She’s weak right now.She hissed in pain and tightened her hold on my neck while I rubbed her back with my other hand. Doctor injected it and disposed of the injection in the trash bin. “Where’s Ms. Valerina?” I as
I do know how much work he does but after yesterday, I’m scared for him.I was surprised to see how cool my mom had gotten with my CEO and he was surprised with her, too.“Wow.” He said walking towards me.“What is it?” I asked, referring to his previous statement about going to the office and he stood near me.I swear to god, his cologne does something to me that twists my stomach in a very wrong way.“Nothing. I need to meet Mr. Gross I’ll be back when you get discharged, okay?” I was having a bad feeling about today but I nodded anyway. Why would someone attack Mr. Gross’s private ball? How did they got to know about the party?And before I could ask him these questions, his hand landed on my nape and lips crashed over mine.In a fraction of a moment he withdrew his lips back before I could even start.I wanted more!!!“No, I want more.” I grabbed his collar and kissed him, affectionately.Giving him the access to my mouth, his tongue found mine. Our tongue fought for dominance an
I reached my office and waited for Mr. Gross in the conference room. I called him already and he must be arriving anytime.I was deep in my thoughts when my phone rang again and it read - ‘Mamma’.I’ve been dodging her calls since the drive, I had 5 missed calls from her. Rozine must be in the hospital with her mother and Mr. Gross must be arriving anytime soon so turning my phone off seemed like the best option.Mr. Gross entered the room. He nodded and took the chair right in front of me. I nodded back and waited for him to start talking.“I’m sorry for what happened yesternight. I know it hurt your PA but I d-”“She was my date, not my PA!” I said, glaring at him.If eyes could kill, he’d be dead by now.“I understand.” He crossed his palms, leaning on the table. “And I want you to understand that I do not mean any harm to you.”“I know.” I said and continued, “But Rozine wouldn’t have been hurt if your security was worth anything.” “I’m extremely very sorry for what happened. An
I reached the hospital and parked the car in the driveway and walked towards the entrance of the hospital taking the bouquet with me.I saw that Dr. Sarah is in the same wing as me and she came closer to me saying.“Rozine is getting discharged.”“Has the payment been made?”“Not yet.”“Good. I’ll be doing it.”She nodded and left. I took the elevators. I reached the floor where Rozine’s room was and walked towards it.I entered and saw Ms. Mariam back facing me while she collected things in her bag but Rozine was nowhere to be seen. I coughed to let her know that I’m here.She turned and greeted me with a smile and I smiled back.“Rozine is in the washroom, changing.” She said looking at the bouquet in my hands.“Okay. I’ll do the other formalities till then.”She shook her head and said. “No need, Mr. Risso we-”“Please let me, Ms. Valerina. She ended up here because of me and this is the least I can do.”She nodded and I left the room keeping the flowers at the bedside table.I di
“What are we?”As I asked him the question his facial expressions changed.Fuck! I shouldn’t have asked it. How foolish of me to think a mere attraction was ready to label.“What do you want us to be?” He said, raising his eyebrows.Why can’t you keep quiet, Rozine? Or maybe it’s just my anxiety.I opened my mouth to say something but he suddenly said something that froze me in my position.“Will you be my Girlfriend, Rozine?”His gaze was piercing me. I would’ve split into two pieces but his palms that held mine stopped me from doing it. I wasn’t able to form words or even open my mouth. I thought if I’d say something, I'd ruin this moment and he suddenly said again.“Will you go on a date with me?”My eyes widened with the shock but controlled them fast enough to not let him see through me. I was numb now. Actually so numb that my body felt immobile and only my eyeballs were moving, flickering between his eyes and lips.I wanted to kiss him right at that moment but his lips again m
It has been 3 days since Rozine got back from the hospital and is getting better day by day.And today is our date but here I am, sitting in my home office with Mr. Gross’s FBI agents as he promised me his help. And a few more sketchers to draw the figures.I had to say, this FBI agent is good at his work and he’s figured out the man who fired bullets is. It wasn’t easy to figure out as his face is covered in all the CCTV cameras but a rough sketch has been drawn.“This is the final sketch?” I asked, looking at the drawn portrait of a man that doesn’t look so old.“Yes, Sir. Lend me some time. I'll let you know about the man he’s working for or whoever is on their team.”I nodded leaving the office with the sketch in my hands, and my bodyguard was standing right at the door.“I want this person in my basement by tonight.” I said, forwarding the sketch and he nodded while taking it.I took the elevators and left for Rozine’s home. I pulled off at her apartment and she came wearing the d
It’s been 3 days since the ball night and the only news I’ve got is that Rozine fell unconscious that night. I’m sitting on the couch of Wallerman’s living room and waiting for him to come down to his room.I’ve been listening to the loud moans since minutes and the bastard is still not done with fucking his whores.Yes, whores! The fucker is worst than me when it comes to women. I just got jealous over Mariam and killed her husband. This bastard up there fucks like there’s no tomorrow.The moans got sloppier and almost faded. I saw him coming down the stairs buttoning up his shirt.“Sorry I made you wait, Gilbert.” He said sipping water. “You had water?”“Aren’t you afraid of your wife? Youve been fucking your whores, maids, assistants, PA’s and what not?”“Were you afraid of your wife?” His lifted eyebrow said it all if his mouth couldn’t.“I wasn’t cheating on her unlike you.”“Still doesn’t justify your actions.” He let out a snort and kept the water down.“Shut up and tell me wha
We both exited the car and came near the body lying on the road. DEAD.It was scary as I never encountered anyone lying on the random road near the bridge but there’s first time for everytime. Right?We both bent a little to get a closer look of the person but the sight before me shook me to my core.The guy was no one else than Peter. I shivered and looked back at Jackson. He drew me into his arms and held me in his chest.“Shh…It’s okay. People are meant to die, it’s a part of life.”He tried to hush me down and I shook my head in a ‘no’.“He’s- uh, he’s-” I hiccuped while saying and he lifted my chin up.“Who’s he?” He asked me and I stared right back into his hunter eyes that were darker than any shade of black.“He’s Peter. My ex.”He held my head into his chest and I saw a car moving towards us. But I couldn't see clearly because the headlights invaded my vision. Jackson pulled back and 2 mens in formal outfits came out of the car with the guns in their hands. The guns were sma
