After the men left, I decided to go shopping for groceries because I was out of everything in my house. It was six pm when I stepped out of the building. I felt it again, the feeling of someone watching me. I shook my head, trying to keep a clear mind. I was overthinking and it was probably nothing. While in the grocery store, I couldn't help but feel like something was off, I looked around me, but everyone went on with their business. I knew I wasn't overthinking at that point, something was definitely wrong, someone was watching me.I pulled out my phone and called Aliyah, she was the only one I could think of to help me, because I knew Noah and Antonio were annoyed."Hey girl!" Aliyah hailed."Hey, uhm there's a situation and I need help, can you come get me? I think someone is following me" I rushed."Oh my love, I'm sorry, Harry took me out of town. You could call Anto" she suggested. Shit!"Okay, enjoy. Say hi to Harry for me" I told her. I held my shopping bags tightly in my ar
Although Antonio's new behavior was uncalled for, I somehow understood where he was coming from and I didn't want it to be a problem between us, I mean he was the one who kept saying we could be cool. I grabbed my phone and dialed his number."Hey" I said into my phone."You're up" was his respond. Really, you're up?"And you're not here" I retorted. I wanted to know why he left without letting me know, I mean he left my house open, what if the person who had been following me around entered into my house to kill me or do whatever he wanted to do."Yeah well, I was just sticking to the contract. No strings attached right? Be safe though, I have work to do" Antonio rushed and hung up. Okay, Antonio was taking his anger a little too far, but he was right, sticking to the contract would be better for us; I mean I was the advocate for sticking to the contract and there I was, looking for attention.I dragged my lazy ass to the bathroom, had a long ass bath and went to the kitchen to cook J
I wasn't so scared anymore about the whole stalking thing , in fact I felt like the whole thing was just in my head, and no one was filling me for anything. I mean what would they want from me? Why would anyone stalk me?With that energy, I got ready for work, not caring about the stalker, Antonio or even Noah. I got dressed in a blue jeans and a multicolored wrap top; I paired my outfit with a pair of black stilettos. I looked in the mirror and smiled, I looked too damn good, but I was about to be late.I g
After work, I went straight home because even though I was trying so hard to keep my mind off a possible stalker, I still had to be cautious. I didn't try to socialize with anyone for anything. I felt like calling Noah, but I knew he was not down from his high yet, and he seriously needed to apologize to me, I mean he's the one who leaned in for a kiss, and I just followed through, not to even talk about how awkward he'd feel if I had rejected him there and then; at that point, that's all I needed. I know I sound selfish for thinking that way, but it is what it is. I did miss Noah though.I cooked a little yam porridge for dinner and had a warm bath, it was refreshing, just what I needed after the long day at work. Thankfully, I didn't see much of Mr. Blue for the whole day, after his encounter with Antonio. Who knew Antonio knew a lot of people and he was that influential? Who exactly is Antonio Rivera? While doing a little work I brought home with me, my phone started to ring, it w
I had to sit tight-legged although the morning, because every time I separated my legs, I felt ice cold water dripping down my legs, followed by Antonio’s warm hands. It like I was reliving the night; I had never had anything like that, ever! Antonio really knew what to do and how to do it, it shocked me all the damn time; like where on earth did he learn all that stuff? “Hey, you good?” Melissa peeped into my office to ask.“Yeah, why?” I asked her, as it was weird she was ask
When I ordered my Uber back to Antonio's house, I almost put in my own address, it still felt new to me that I was living with Antonio, I wasn't over it.When I got home, Antonio was in the living room, with a glass of scotch in his hands, only that he was playing with the glass, not particularly drinking from it. Just looking at him sitting there like he owned the whole world, shirtless with his hair down. Fuck!My insides were already tingling and he hadn't even talked yet. I've always felt Antonio looked
ANTONIO's POVI couldn't sleep, not because I didn't want to but because I just couldn't sleep, and it had everything to do with the argument I had with Sewa. I acted like a complete prick and she didn't want to talk to me. I only acted the way I did because I was scared; I was sca
After the stressful day at work, I came back home to find a strange car parked in the mansion. It wasn't any of Antonio's cars for sure and it looked too shabby to be newly bought, so someone was clearly in the house.I didn't think much to it because Antonio always had his hoard of friends in the house from time to time. On getting into the house, I didn't hear the sound of people talking, and Antonio's friends were usually loud as fuck, so it was a little weird to me. I shook the thought of Antonio having a girl over from my head and walked to the kitchen to get water; I was parched.
