Synopsis
"There are only two categories of women I sleep with. The ones I'm paying and the ones I'm dating," Kachi stated. "And I don't fall among the category of women you want to date?" Aria asked in disbelief. "You don't." "You're a real bastard. Why would I agree to sleep with you if I know you have no intention of dating me?" "Because I want you. And I know that you want me too." Aria stared at him, hating that he was right and hating herself for letting it be. From the first time she had met him, she'd known that she would wreck herself to have this man. *** Onyekachi Obiagu is looking for a distraction to ease his already stressful days. Then he met her, Zariah, the girl that always has a response for almost everything he says. He's determined to have her so he proposes a deal she can't possibly refuse. Zariah Okoye is suffering through her days, hoping to one day lessen the mountain of debt on her head. Then she meets arrogant billionaire, Kachi, who proposes a deal that seems to be the answer to her prayers. Secrets, conspiracies and betrayals follow and they have to fight family, friends and foes whilst fighting the attraction brewing between them. Do I need to say more? Start reading ❤️ WARNING: THIS BOOK CONTAINS MATURE THEMES INTENDED FOR AN 18+ AUDIENCE. PLEASE SKIP IF YOU'RE UNDERAGE.

When Kachi stood up, Aria could swear her heart dipped. He was so tall and muscular, like someone who spent all their spare time working out. He towered over her, his eyes cold and his full lips in a straight line as he stared down at her. Usually, she hated the feeling of being looked down on, but at the moment, his cold gaze sent goosebumps all over her skin and made her stomach tighten.She took a step closer to measure their height difference, finding that her head only came to the middle of his chest, and she had heels on."Back off!" His voice rang and she immediately blinked, getting a hold of herself. "don't come close to me, don't touch me without my permission either." She took a few steps back and stared at him."I wasn't going to touch you, I was just—""Walk," he interrupted and his brows drew together."What?""Time is money, start walking."Aria huffed but began to move, making conscious effort to sway her hips a little. She found Kunle in front of one of the rooms and

"She likes you, fucking smile," Azu said under his breath while maintaining a smile for the women. Kachi lifted his lips slightly before turning away from the slim dancer he'd been watching earlier. He couldn't see much of her face, but her eyes seemed to be accentuated by the red of her mask. Her brown eyes were like pools of molten chocolate and he'd felt uncomfortable looking into their depths."You can do better." Chike knocked their legs together and Kachi scowled at his friend."This bastard has started," Azu said then groaned. "What would you ladies like to drink?" Chike asked and the girls began muttering to themselves, except the one with the swirling eyes and red mask."What you have here is fine," the thicker one said and the rest nodded. She seemed to be the head of their little group so Azu focused on her."What do we call you guys? What are your names?""Bliss," she smiled."Bliss," Azu rolled the name around, saying it over and over again before nodding. "I love that."

The lights went out and she could hear the MC as he started hyping the new spender. Aria felt like her head would explode from all the noise around her. It didn't help that most of the attention tonight hadn't been on the dancers but on the guys spraying money for girls to pick and those lighting bottles of expensive alcohol. As a result, the stage had not been making money. She watched her colleagues as they made big bucks in tips for carrying caskets out and serving expensive bottles of drinks. That could have been her, Aria almost screamed. The money on the floor wasn't even up to a hundred thousand naira and it would be split four ways before she had to split again with Odogwu. She was looking at about twenty five thousand or less. Maybe forty if the man gave her the fifteen they agreed on.At the moment, it didn't seem likely that he would because Odogwu had spent the better part of the evening scowling at them. She had been forced to actually do stunts on the pole to get his fr

When his friends had decided to drag him out to this place, Kachi already knew that it was a bad idea. He was even more annoyed that now they were here, all they'd wanted to talk about were the latest women they were seeing, cars and other trivial things. Things that they could have talked about at Chike's place where they had originally gathered.Today had been particularly stressful for him and all he wanted to do was have a drink with his guys and then fall into bed. Now he was here in this stuffy place and the flashing lights and smoke was giving him a headache.He sighed for the third time that night as he stared longingly at the door. He couldn't leave because his stupid friends had taken a VIP booth and had placed him in the middle. The only way he could leave was if they stood up to let him pass, which wasn't happening no matter how hard he tried."These Lagos girls are on another level," Chike, one of his friends said as he placed his empty glass down. Kachi followed his fri

It was raining the first time she saw him. Aria was running out of her apartment lobby to meet up with her shift at work and he had been running in, away from from the dreary weather. Their eyes had met, or so she thought. She had come to a sudden halt and it had taken Pete honking loudly to get her moving again, but her eyes had remained on him. His short hair and full beard was wet and the drops of water running down his face made her feel strangely jealous. She wanted to be the water. She wanted to run down his body and feel the texture of his skin.His white t-shirt clung to him, showing off a well muscled torso, at least it looked well muscled from the few seconds that Aria stared at him. He stared at her as he ran past, and that look did terrible things to her insides.She turned back to watch him run inside, and kept staring as he waved to Mitch; their security man, who was also hurrying out of the lobby. "Bitch, if you don't get in this instant, I'll drive off without you!"

My name is Anthonia Obiajulum. You can shorten to Tonia and Juls. Whichever you like. I'm extremely friendly and love to talk about anything so you can always slide in the DM.This book is a work of fiction and all characters, incidents and organisations herein are fictional!This book is rated 18+. But I'll still say it again. It's not for kids please! It will contain explicit sexual content, and a lot of dirty words. I'll add more warnings if need be as the book develops. The characters and settings are Nigerian and I understand there are words and terms you won't understand if you're not Nigerian, so please feel free to leave an inline comment asking what I mean. I'm almost always active so I'd reply ASAP.I hope you give this book a lot of love and support. It would mean a lot to me. Thanks for choosing Subdued!
