—Nathaniel—

Something about her stopped the noise in my head. Maybe it was the way her cocoa skin glowed under the dim lights, or how her afro hair fanned out like a crown halo.

Then I noticed what she was wearing— a sheer silver bodysuit that hugged her curves, and jewelry that caught the light.

Damian hooted, before turning to us at the table. “Seems we have a newbie in the house.”

Eloise gasped. “Oh my God, she’s so beautiful.”

As for me?

I could only sip my drink, unable to take my eyes off her.

Something about her tightened my chest—made me acutely aware of her in a way I’d never been with another woman.

As though all the oxygen in the room had disappeared.

She scanned the room as though unsure of what she was here to do, then Reluctantly grabbed the pole.

“Why isn't she dancing?” Eloise asked.

Damian shrugged. “She's a fresher, what do you expect? Guess she's not used to this kind of attention.”

“Move it already, will you?” someone shouted from the crowd.

    —Amira—A flint of anger sparked inside meHe was enjoying pulling the carpet under my feet every time. And I couldn't believe I fell for his tricks againOh, who said I couldn't play the game too? A reticent smile played on my lips as I straightened from his desk. I smoothed my dress and nodded.”Yes sir,” I mumbled.Turning on my heels, I walked out of his office.Soon enough, he’d learn that ninety-nine days belong to the thief—but one day always belongs to the owner.*. *. *. *. .*—Nathaniel—It all started a few nights ago when she arrived at the banquet. My heart had stopped beating and the world stood at a standstill.I slipped my hands into my pockets and watched as the cameras flashed on her from the press barricade. Exhaling, I excused myself from the group and started walking toward her, hating how my heart pounded so fast.I wasn't supposed to feel attracted to the woman who broke my heart.“Ms. Nwosu,” I called.We exchanged pleasantries and headed inside.

    —Amira—My breath jackhammered.This should be the moment any girl would yell at the driver to stop the car, then take to her heels.But I didn't. I sat quietly, my eyes drifting to his lips, recalling the moment they captured mine... how warm and sweet they'd felt.Nathaniel smirked as if reading the chaos going on in my head. He leaned closer and kissed my ear.“Do we have an understanding?”I shivered, heart pounding. “Yes.”“Good.” He straightened and held my gaze. “Because next time, I won't be asking. I'll take what's mine... I'll be ruthless about it.”My breath caught. Wasn't I supposed to be screaming and running? But I inched toward him, my panties soaking with arousal.“You feel that?” he whispered. “That’s you losing control... that's you wanting to be ruined.”A moan slipped from my lips. “Nathaniel—”“Shhh,” he placed a finger over my lips. “Say it. Say it, that you want to be ruined by me.”“I–I want to be ruined by you,” I stuttered.He let out a small groan before sl

    —Amira—The whole room floated away, desire blooming like a forbidden flower inside me.When had he flown back? He was supposed to be in a meeting with the president.“Mr. Rivera?” Joyce squealed and scooted to his side. “I-I thought you wouldn't make it.”“It's simple courtesy to honor an invitation,” he replied, eyes still locked on me. Before he finally looked at her. “Happy birthday.”She grinned and scratched her ear. “Thank you, sir.”At the moment he looked away, it was as if my senses returned. But his cologne continued to unravel me... reminding me of the times I was in his arms.I sipped my drink and fidgeted with the stem of my glass.“So glad to have you, sir,” Joyce said, and led him to our couch. “Amira. Come over,” she beckoned.I let out a breath and joined them.Conversations resumed, and the DJ went back to work, throwing in an afrobeat that thumped the speakers.“Good evening, sir,” I mumbled.There was a smirk in his eyes as if he were replaying how he’d messed with

    —Amira—I dashed into the house and slammed the door.... then plummeted to the floor, hollowed out with pain.Shamefully, I hoped he'd come running after me. Pull me into his arms and kiss me. Only to hear his convoy reversing and slipping back into the midnight traffic.Tears spilled down my cheeks.He was messing with me.Perhaps I should resign and stay away from him.But that was worse... I couldn’t just throw away a million naira job, not when my family was in tight corner.I gathered myself off the floor and went to my room. Still in my party clothes, I climbed into bed and closed my eyes.But sleep eluded me.I tossed back and forth in bed and literally watched as daybreak came.That morning, Nathaniel didn't show up at the office. He sent in a text while I was walking down the corridor of the Tech Lab.‘Flew to Abuja for an emergency meeting with Mr. President. Won’t be in today.’A meeting with the president? It only confirmed that he was completely out of my league. We cam

    —Amira—Evening arrived faster than I expected.One minute I was in the office... the next I was in the hospital, helping Mama commode from the bathroom.“H–he invited you to a banquet?” she asked.“Yes, Mama.”She sat on the bed. “So he bought clothes for you yesterday, is inviting you to a high profile event, yet insists he doesn't remember you?”I sighed. “That's what he says. I–I think he's still angry that I chose the money and not him.”Last night, I had opened up to Mama about everything that happened abroad. She had broken into tears and apologized as if it was her fault.I glanced at Oluchi drawing on the couch.“Go ahead and attend the banquet,” Mama said, and I met her gaze again. “Your boss seems like a good man.”A smile flitted across my lips as I pulled her into my embrace. “Thanks, Mama.”She patted my back. “Hurry. Or you'll be late.”“Bring something for me,” Oluchi blurted.Grinning, I walked to her and kissed her temple. “I promise, I will.”I glanced one more time

    —Nathaniel—How do I forget a girl who just walked back into my life?Months ago, she'd taken the money and left me reeling with my first heartbreak.And as if that wasn’t enough, I crossed an ocean in a bid to forget everything—only to run into her again.That night, I’d spilled water and waited for a cleaning staff, never knowing she would be the one to walk through that door.A cold shock shot through me.As if that wasn't enough, she gasped... eyes wide as she hurried over.She lowered her tools and stretched a hand at me. “Hi. It's so nice to see you again.”Add great acting skills to her CV. Because Amira stood before me, smiling as though she didn't remember breaking me months ago.Or was she trying to rub it on my face?Damn it!I glanced at her hands and more than anything, I wanted to kiss them and pull her into my arms— but then I remembered how quickly she walked away last time.Steve gasped. “Do you two know each other?”“No,” I replied, my voice overshadowing hers. “I do
