In no time, we got to the invisible door, and the image of Ashely trying to get the wall to open earlier cracked me up I almost burst into a loud laughter, but held myself in order to maintain the tensed atmosphere. The wall opened and we got into my personal elevator, I looked at Ashely, who looked carried away by her thought I immediately thought of something to do or say to her that would bring her back to the environment when an idea popped into my mind. “You should enjoy your ride today, because this would be the last time I would grant you access to my personal elevator” I said to her in a whisper directly in her ears. She jerked up in shock and started looking around, I could tell that she was trying to confirm if Clara and Felix at the front heard me. I chuckled inside my mouth and pretended as though I didn’t say and notice anything. In a short time, we got to the last floor. It’s a culture in my organization for everybody to bow leaving whatever they are doing the moment the
But at the same time, I advised myself not to put so much hope in that because he is unpredictable and heartless. The car stopped at the hotel and we all came down except the driver who kept stealing glances at me. The moment we got into the compound of the hotel, all the men outside stopped what they were doing and bowed to him “wow!! He owns the place too.” I whispered as I followed him at his back. A man suddenly ran out form the hotel and came to us, greeting and prostrating as though he had seen a god. Nathaniel excused us for a moment and went to talk to him. I couldn’t help but to let out a wide smile that forced it way out of my lips this was like a dream come true for me. I looked towards their direction and noticed the man, at interval looked at me while nodding his head I knew the conversation was about me and for some strange reason, I couldn’t wait to hear what the outcome of their conversation would be. After some minutes, the conversation was over and Nathaniel walked
He turned his cold gaze to look at me, paused for a moment and kept on moving as though I wasn’t talking to him. I ran to the front, preventing him from going further and waved my two hands, “hay!! Where the fuck are you taking me to?” I asked with the last strength I had. I looked back to see where we were coming from and where we were headed to, without having to think, I knew I was about to get into another cave to spend the night. After a very long walk, he stopped and looked at me “To make things easy for both of us, just quietly follow me and don’t make a fuss out of this” he blurted out in a stern masculine tone. I couldn’t believe I was the one being controlled around like a slave. Memories from earlier part of the day immediately started hunting my mind, making tears roll down my cheeks “who would have known, that after being so happy and celebrated by people, would end up like this at the end of the day” I whispered. While we walked, I remembered what Nat told me abo
“What are you doing here by this time? And how did you get here?” she questioned in a whisper, shut the door against her and came out to meet me. I didn’t need to ask why she decided to come out to meet me rather than going inside, because my father wasn’t in any position to hear all the heart breaking things that has happened to me today, it would only add to the stoke he has and I wasn’t ready for that. A long silence paused our conversation as she peered into my eyes trying to read meaning from every expression and glint of sadness she saw “I know you are not happy, so tell me about it” she propped in a low but concerned tone. I took in a deep breath and started narrating all that happened, but ended it with “I can face it, don’t worry about me Mom, I would be fine” I didn’t know where that strength came out from, and beside my parent were already going through a difficult time, adding more to their problems would only worsen the case. “You know you still don’t have to do th
The place suddenly became blurry and everybody appeared as though double, I was about to finally give up when a strong hand held my wrist pulling me gradually out of the crowd but it was already too late as my body couldn’t carry me again, I fell to my back and landed on another hard grip, which pulled me up and started moving. At that point I was almost totally unconscious and couldn’t tell what was happening and where I was, the place started becoming dark until gradually faded to total black. NAT POVThe moment I left the hotel, I restored on going to my uncle's house since it wasn’t so late, the drive to his house was very long and all I thought about was Ashely, I silently wished she was still there with me because her presence made me feel a certain way that I can’t even explain. I turned my gaze to look at the hotel, which was at this time barely noticeable, and worried about her. I wasn’t sure if she was trust worthy enough to be left in a hotel alone, so I got three hefty me
“What!!” I yelled at the top of my voice without evening know when I did. “How the fuck did she outsmart three hefty useless men”. I bellowed, as the boiling sound of anger mead it way to my brain. I picked up my phone and dialed a number I was already burning in furry and couldn’t control myself. I hated it when people go against command, and whenever they do, I don’t hesitate in giving then their slice of cake. As soon as the person on the other side picked, I exhaled “You are fired! Get the fuck, out of my Hotel, you and the three pieces of shit that I sent to guard her” I said to the manager, and ended the call without waiting to hearing what he had to say. I got into my car breathing heavily, as much as I expected what happened, I didn’t still believe that Ashely would be able to outsmart them, I checked my time and wondered where she would be, and silently prayed that she comes back and get her own share of punishment for going against my command. I laid my head on the
Ashely POV I woke up with a throbbing headache “ouch” I whimpered so low beneath my breath while I tried to remember everything that happened. “I got trapped by some people outside and I fainted,” I said in my thoughts It then dawned on me that I wasn’t outside, and I wasn’t in my house either “so where was I?” I questioned still in my thought. I had been hesitant to open my eyes because of how terrible the headache made me feel, but the moment I realized that I didn’t know where I was, I immediately jerked my eyes open. My gazes winded in shock and surprise at the sight that it was graced with, I opened my mouth to shout but stooped the moment I recognized who the person was. My heart immediately began to throb so fast as sweat filled my body as though drenched with rain “what has he done?” I murmured inaudibly gazing at him with fear and confusion as he crouched lower toward my lips. His eyes were closed as though lost in thought, his warm breath flooded my face making the
NAT POV The moment the wedding was over, I placed a call to Clara, my PA to meet me at waldorf Astoria where I would be meeting with the CEO of the Dorf group of companies for the contract. I looked at Ashely who looked unkempt but beautiful, she wasn’t dressed up enough to follow me to meet them, I rummaged my mind on what to do, as I was already going against time. Taking her to have a change of cloth would make me go late and I wasn’t ready to soil my reputation because of her “Get into the car it's time to go” I instructed in an intimidating and arrogant tone. She was already mine and I could do whatever I wished to do to her at any time. We got into the car and drove off. The moment the car started, my phone began to ring, I took it out of my pocket and smiled at the caller. “Hello, Minster Falcon, yes I am on my way,” I said responding to the questions he asked me. He had called me earlier to give me a go-ahead on my decision in marrying Ashely, and that made me even h
