Alex’s pov

I paced around the room before a knock came on my door. I opened it to see my butler standing there.

“Sir, your assistant is here to see you,” he said as I realised I had not formally introduced Dennis to the rest of the staff.

I nodded and followed him out.

Dennis was at the living room with a few bags as I looked around for the groceries.

“The maids took the food to the kitchen,” he said to his feet as I looked at his bags. They weren’t top notch but that didn’t matter. They could be replaced.

“Follow me,” I said as we walked up to my room and I led him in.

He entered and looked around as he marveled at the size of the room.

“This place must be more expensive than my entire apartment building.”

“You act like you haven’t been here before,” I said as I sat by the window and crossed my legs.

“That’s because I haven’t been here before,” he said as I nodded.

“Well, this room is mine and now it’s yours. For the year of course. After that, your contract is over and you can leav

  • The CEO'S Contract Husband   Chapter 18

    Alex’s pov“Your name is Alexander Taylor. A name you’ve hated since you were little because it’s feminine. You are twenty four and you have the ability to write with two hands. Not at the same time but pretty close. Your mother is Latina and your father is American. You love wearing suits. You not allergic to any nut, but you do hate foods that don’t have the W sticker on them.”“I have my reasons,” I said.“Yes. We know. Your ex girlfriend is Emily Pen. Two years older than you, a blonde who is manipulate and materialistic but you don’t listen.”“She isn’t. She just has good taste.”“Then tell me why she left you for someone richer?”“Like I said, she has good taste.”“The man is older than your dad and he already has six wives with almost twelve grandchildren.”I didn’t know what to say.“Fine. You’ve made your point. You know about me more than I know about you. But maybe it’s because I’m popular. I mean, come on. The press will definitely have most of my details online anyway. Th

    Alex’s povWhen he left, I stood there confused on what had actually happened. How did he… how did we even kiss like that? It felt so strange. He had kissed me and taken the reins like that and I was so confused.I looked at the phone on the table and remembered how he had been in charge. That was one of the first times he was acting that way and to be honest, it turned me on a bit.I looked at my clock and felt the fatigue raging down my back. I needed to be home. That part he was right about.Without a second thought, I grabbed my things and headed for the door as I left.I passed by his office on my way out and found it empty. Where was he?Taking out my phone, I tried to call him, but just before I could push the call button, I halted. No need for that.I stared ahead and walked into the elevator which shot me down and I got out to get into my car.***I reached home in no time as the gates automatically opened for me. I knew something was wrong the moment I got out of the car and

    Dennis’s povAs much as I was thankful for the distraction, I was a bit angry that we had been distracted from the earlier kiss. I wanted to see where this would lead. “I want to take this,” he said as I grabbed the phone and put it out of his reach.“Hey,” I said. “I needed that.”“Well, you’re with me now.”He tried being fast and taking it from my hand but I kept it away from him.“Not so fast huh,” I chuckled as I stepped away from him while he walked slowly towards me, his eyes locked onto the phone.“Dennis,” he sighed. “I’m not here for the games. Please just let me have my phone so I call answer them.”He gave me the stink eye but I ignored him and raised the phone high.“You know I’m taller than you right?” Alex said as he stopped before me with a tilted head.“I don’t care. I’m picking this up.”He scoffed. “Of course you are.”I slowly put my finger to the answer mode as he widened his eyes.“No!” He yelled, trying to get it away from me as I answered.“Hello, this is Sir

    Dennis’s pov“I’ll have to start going back to work,” I said as I handed the food to the nurse. “But can you give her this when she wakes up? She needs to eat something.”“Sure thing,” she said as she placed the food onto the counter. “If there is anything we need from you we’ll notify you.”“Thank you,” I said before walking out of the room.On my way out of the hospital, I thought about the conversation I had with my mother and found that she was right. Maybe I had overreacted with Alex. Sure he had acted like a total douche but I needed to be patient with him.The only way to survive this one year with him would be to be his ally and not his enemy.Besides, how hard would it be?That was when it hit me that it would be pretty hard. It was Alex we were talking about. He was a pain in the ass.I got back to the office and saw him sleeping on his desk. In that moment I found him strangely attractive.This was the first time I was finding him attractive as I admired his features.His

    Dennis’s pov“What were you two discussing outside?” She asked as soon as I got in as the nurse left us alone.“Oh… you know,” I smiled. “Stuff.”I sat on the bed beside her as she placed her hand on my lap. I could see her veins showing a green hue through her skin and saw how skinny she was getting.“I can feel it, you know,” she said. “My body shutting down.”“Don’t say that mum,” I sighed. “I’ll find a way to get you that special treatment you need.”She smiled. “I know you can do it. But I’m more worried about you. You really work so hard.”It hit me that it was when I had gotten married and gone for that dinner date with Alex’s parents.“Yeah. I must have had a lot to do last night.”“You showed up late last night. Work seems to be keeping you away from home. It’s almost like you’re married to work.”I laughed nervously and sighed.“Is something the matter? You know you can talk to me, son.”I nodded. But how do I tell my mother about my marriage without even coming off as weird
