Chapter 5

As Bennett probably should've expected. She was beautiful and yet simple.

His eyes didn't leave her face.. neither did he say a word.

Octavia stared at him, the smile not leaving her face.

"Can I come in?" She asked, looking at the door he held out.

He blinked and twisted the knob slowly... And giving way for her to get in.

He didn't know he had been holding his breath for minutes ago... When he finally gave out a defeated sigh.

He knew she had a nice voice, a cute light one that could be the opposite of his.

But he didn't think he would meet something more alluring.

He thought.. she would be one of those Models that would put on some seducing clothes and all. But yet she was in her simple leather Gown, with a small bag pack.

He sighed. How whimsical of Him!

This wasn't him! Talking and appreciating a lady he had just met.

" Good afternoon Mr. Stone." He heard the voice again and snapped back to reality in his office... Where the sunset was breathtaking.

Where one could view the best City view from... Where you could feel the natural breeze clung to your skin as if it had been there all along... Caressing and soothing.

Octavia smiled.

"It's nice here." She mumbled, closing her eyes.

She was a fan of Nature.

"Yes." He answered, and punched the part between his brows.

"Miss Stiles... I guess?" He said.

"It is." She replied too.

He stood up to get a piece of paper, which she concluded might be the contract form.

She kept staring. His Dark hair, his light body, and his dark eyes.

His Dark eyes turned directly and met hers.

Pierced right into her own.

She gulped and looked away.

She turned again and fortunately he was busy searching for the paper in the printer that stood wide at the center of the office.

Time to take the moment to admire the man in front of her.

His dark and olive skin... His eyebrows could make any girl trip. His elegant sharp gaze and his eyes!

Stop it, Octavia... You should never think like this again. She blinked they thought away and puff out her cheeks.

"Here it is." Bennett said as he walked back to her seat.

" I'll show you to the Design Department when you're done with that." He said and gave her the contract with a Bic.

She nodded, as she read the contract slowly, taking in every word listed there.

She sighed, as she signed the paper... And handed it over.

"Is it done now?" She asked, her voice filled with professionalism and something else... Bennett tried to decipher.

Maybe she had been taught how to speak like that since she was little. He thought.

He nodded to her question and stood up.

I'll take you there. He mumbled as he stood up to get his Suit Jacket.

"Your company is amazing and huge." Octavia said as she looked around.

"I try my best." He answered, and she shook her head.

Although she was not expecting an answer.

Must he give that answer filled with pride... as If he was waiting for her to ask.

"Are you the sole owner of Stone's Corporation?" She asked again, cocking her head in his direction.

"Sole Heir." He mumbled as he quicken his footsteps.

"Although I made it stand like it is today". He answered again.

Octavia nodded... Yeah! The same way she did hers.

And some Pagans were still waiting by the corner to get a little or more from her.

Octavia looked around and gasped.

"Don't tell me you also have the Wall Studio." She said as she touched the wall glass that had a small piece of writing on it.

Bennett frowned... was this woman truly a Model?

How could she know things concerning a Huge Corp like this?

"I have done many things, for many companies." Octavia said as she saw his expression.

She never wanted people to recognize her as the Sole Heiress of The Mondragon Empire.

She had changed her name to Octavia Stiles... rather than Octavia Mondragon.

And she liked it.

Even her bio online said nothing concerning her Wealth... and everyone knew her as the Model.. except for some.

But she doubt that anyone would try digging that far to know her to that extent.

"We're here." His deep voice brought her out of her thinking world... as she tried to put herself back together.

She walked into the Department that seem to be filled with designs as its name implies.

She looked around and could see widened eyes staring at her.

"Hi. She waved at everyone. "I am.....

"Octavia Stiles" Someone completed, and she nodded, with a giggle.

Guess there was no need for the introduction.

"They'll get you what you need for the Model job."

"But when you're done, you can come back to my office for the wallpaper." Bennett said as he walked away from the department quickly.

He didn't know why he was walking that quick, but he knew he had to leave that place for no reason In particular.

Octavia smiled at everyone.. as they all smiled back at her.

"Welcome to our Designing Department Ma'am, you're loved." Someone Half yelled... and she laughed.

"Call me Octavia." She said warmly.

Everyone got back to her work, afraid of getting caught talking instead of working.

Octavia took a look at their designs.

She nodded with satisfaction.

They were really good designers. She thought as she kept staring at a design.

"A mother was carrying her child.. running from the war, she could see the fear in her eyes, as if the image was captured Real.

But No, it was pure Design.!!

The design was more like a Gifted work of Art.

"Wow! It's beautiful." She mumbled and took a picture.

She looked at each design... and sighed.

Tch! She had not even started and was getting nervous.

She hissed. She had never been nervous throughout her life as a Model.

Why now? Her eyes momentarily flew to the glass wall just above the small blinds.

Plain writing was on the wall... properly written with a Marker or something.

It Read; "Bennett Stone!"

    SIX MONTHS LATEROctaviaI groaned as I bent to pick something from the ground but couldn't reach it.My bump wasn't that big but it was enough to tell me to stand, to sit and relax.I sighed, heaving a deep breath as I struggled to pick my new fluffy rabbit toy Bennett had gotten for me.Well...Long story cut short, Bennett and I had gotten married after the first month of knowing about our little pipsqueak.Mom was happy. Grandpa was happy and although my father and my stepbrothers and sisters weren't smiling..they came.Even if they didn't...fuck them!They didn't know about my husband being the leader of the Italian Mafia. One word from me and they'd be eradicated from the face of the Earth."Baby." Bennett's hand snaked around my waist as he rubbed my belly."Hey." I mumbled and turned around to hug him but was stopped by my bump.He chuckled and I pouted and turned around."Three months left and we'll be holding our little pigeon on our hands." He said, and kissed my cheek."Wel

    Chapter 75OctaviaBennett wrapped his arms around me, kissing my hair as I watched the burning car.He would have changed. He could have. He had every reason to, but no....he wanted to die."I've got you, baby. Fuck! I've got you." Bennett kept singing to my ears as he picked me up and took me to his car.I blinked back the tears and shook my head."What's wrong?" He asked."That guy..." I choked. "That guy wasn't bad... He's just sick in the head and his own father uses that to his advantage." I said.Bennett sighed."That was why I was willing to let him live." He said."I'm sorry you got to see something like this.""He talked about the bane. About your father... about His Father telling yours to jump down. It was all for the business. He wasn't a bad guy." I cleaned my eyes again, feeling a little sting in my eyes."Stop crying, please." He pulled me to himself and began to stroke my hair."Thank you for coming for me." I mumbled."There's no need to thank me about that, baby. Wh

    Chapter 74Octavia"Cazzo! What the actual fuck?!" Matteo hissed, grabbing my arm and pulling me to my feet."Guess it's time to leave, baby." He whispered, and tuned to Bennett and smiled."Let her go Matteo and I promise to keep you alive." Bennett said, more like a groan."Keep me? You have guts coming out to a place like this and letting her show up as well.. we've been watching her. The love of your life, no?" He Chuckled, and so did they men beside him."Bennett..." I whispered."You're outnumbered, so you better be careful." Matteo said again.He was right for that one.They were five and Bennett was just alone.He was alone and he was making threats?"She's so delicate..oh my God!" Matteo exclaimed and grabbed my chin."Is that a bruise I see? It's not just one...Fuck! a body of a model." He laughed.I looked over at Bennett. A bone ticked in his jaw and his grip tightened on the gun in his hand."How does it feel when you fuck her Bennett? Huh?" He chuckled. "Come on, tell me

  • THE CEO AND I   Death

    Chapter 73OctaviaI strode over to Bennett who had his hand tucked into his trouser pocket. He was wearing a black booraldo suit and a black tie.His hair was well arranged, his perfect well shaped jaw made it more sexy..as he ran a finger down his chin.... making me have a clean view of his beautiful Rolex watch.I stood in front of him but Bennett said nothing. "Why are you here Mr Stone?""The party was held for models and businessmen....and that includes me.""So you didn't come here today cause you're a Mafia man?" I asked, a smile forming on my face."And you're not here today cause you're a businesswoman? Quit the acting miss Stiles, it doesn't suit you." He said.I chuckled. I didn't expect him to play along."Ha." I shook my head."Why are you frowning? Got ditched?'"Watching my girl let another man kiss her on the cheek, God knows how I had to restrain myself from going over there and tearing that shit apart.""Don't do that, he was my manager before....Miss Chen." I said

    Chapter 72The Grand finale was coming to and end.This was the end of being a model.As much as I loved being a model, it was time I focused on my company."Are you wiping your face, clean?" "No.""Good." Calista walked closer to me, a towel wrapped on her head."It's a good thing you're leaving the modeling industry.""Oh please.." I rolled my eyes, knowing what we were about to talk about."It's a good thing....really." She shrugged, as she knelt down in front to me and began to eyeshadow my eye lid again."Please..not too much, I have to look like my normal self. They'll think I'm doing too much." I mumbled."Or you don't just want Bennett to ruin your makeover when he sees how stunning you are... Don't worry, I'll put in an extra kit in your bag." She chuckled. "I'm going too, though. So you don't have to worry about a single thing." She smiled and I rolled my eyes.They were hosting a party for all models and I would take this time to tell everyone about my stepping down."You'

And for that....another chapter is loading.*Kisses*Chapter 71Octavia"In as much as I would love to say it the way I badly want to, the Raven's are making things hard for Basino and it has to end." I watched Bennett and Jace talk, not meaning to eavesdrop on them.They were just talking so loud."The man has some serious problems going on in his fucked up life, had to mentally prepare for him. They called him a dementia patient." Jace said, as they watched someone on the laptop.Who were they talking about?Well...I was in still in Bennett's penthouse and the sun was shining brightly. I was typing down something in my laptop."He comes to this very spot every day at around 2:30pm. He has guards stationed everywhere and I think he knows he's about to die soon. Man's a heartless dick!" He said again.Bennett said nothing, they whole time. His eyes flickering to me and then the laptop as if he knew I was listening to th
