LOTUS
Honestly, this man wasn't who I was expecting to meet at all. I thought I was going to meet a man with a greasy beard and a potbelly, a person who looked extremely exhausted and didn't even want to live.
But as for him, he was so gorgeous, I was jealous of his looks. He had a beautifully sculptured face, a sharp jawline and perfect cheekbones. To say his eyes didn't capture my attention would be a huge lie.
Those eyes did things to me I never thought would happen at all, I was so lost in those greyish blue eyes that were staring at me. He's staring at me! Let me pretend as if I'm not looking at him...
His nose had cute freckles and his lips were full, I really wonder what it would be like to kiss those. I snapped out of my daze when he snapped his fingers in front of my eyes.
"Uhm, huh?" I tried to recall what he was saying but nothing came up, great!
"If you would stop stripping me naked with your eyes you would've heard me," he spoke with annoyance and his voice was godly. Well, it’s not as if you didn’t have me stripping for you not more than thirty minutes ago. I crossed my legs seeing how close he is to me, "As I was saying... Why did he send you here?"
Oh, we are still talking about Wood the dick, who in the world names their child Wood? "He said something about being a present for you," I shrugged my shoulders and looked away, blinking the tears that were threatening to fall down, can't be weak now... you already did that.
"Present? What for?" Honestly, for a smart and fucking sexy man this guy is seriously acting like an idiot, "Thank you for the compliment but I'm just trying to understand why he sent you," I said that out...wait a minute
"What do you mean by 'why he sent you'?" I asked offended, it shouldn't offend me but hey!
"I don't mean to offend you, but if you were going to try to seduce and bed me, I wouldn't be enticed," He spoke shrugging his shoulders, well that hurt even though I know I shouldn't be affected, those guys are only found in books...mxm.
"I was never going to try to seduce you, Mr Rossi, that's why I told you everything he told me so you could handle it."
"Very well, if that's all you can leave," But I have nowhere to go, "What I don't understand as well is why he's using you? Care to tell me what you did to upset him?" This guy has got a curious mind but I can't tell him the whole truth...yet.
"Basically dad owes him money," I shrugged, getting up to get my bag sniffing.
"He killed your dad didn't he?" I looked up at him with tears running down my face, he sighed and walked over to me wrapping his hands around my body...he is touching me! OH MY GOSH!
I was still having a hard time accepting that my dad was gone, my best friend was gone. He saved me from being an orphan and gave me a home, but now with him gone I don't have a home anymore.
"Do you have a place to live?" He whispered in my ear and more chills ran through my body. Please do that again.
"Technically I would have a place to live until you decided it was okay for me to come and live with you, but seeing that I already screwed the plan I guess I'll be living in a coffin," I attempted to joke about my fate but he didn't find it funny.
And I did have a place to live, but I don't want to go back to that house.
"What is it you do for a living?" He asked after some time.
"Uhm, I just finished college so I'm still hunting," I said sitting down on the couch I was before he kicked me out.
"And you had no money to pay for daddy's debt," He asked carefully and I nodded my head slowly, staring at the carpet that suddenly became interesting.
"I guess you could live with me until I figure this mess out, but you would have to basically take care of the house," He said, sitting down on his chair.
"Wait like a maid?" I asked grimacing, not that there's anything wrong with it. But living with him and being his maid, this would make for a great book right?
"Yes, do you have a problem with that?" He asked looking up from his laptop and I shook my head no
"With pay?" I asked in a small voice trying my luck and all he did was raise his eyebrow, I immediately shrunk and muttered "Nevermind."
"Now sit and be quiet, I have work to do," He said and I stared at him as if he's mad. I really don't like the way he talks to me as if I'm a kid, but since he's helping me out I'll just 'be quiet'.
I sit and stare at my fingers thinking about the events that have brought me here, and what happened here. I haven't had enough time to think about it but he made me strip almost naked for him!
I'm so glad he didn't ask me to remove my panties because they were soaked. The way he stared at my breasts and bit his lip was so hot it got me hot.
Busy talking about ' I wouldn't be enticed ' yeah tell that to my boobs! I looked up and saw him looking away from me. I wonder how long he had been looking at me because I'm sure I looked like an idiot grinning alone.
Since I had nothing to do, I assessed him. You could see he had the body of a god. Muscles bulging from his shirt and legs. I don't know about a lot of you other women, but legs for me are a turn on, especially the soccer guys legs, I believe it's called bowlegged. Oh my, kill me now!
He looked extremely sexy in his suit pants and shirt, but I wonder how he would look with the complete look. I'd probably faint!
After seeing that he's got a great body, beautiful face, voice made in heaven and is rich. I came to the conclusion that I was just reading a book because guys like that don't exist right?
Oh, but they do! He is right in front of you!
Yeah, but not for me. I get up and walk around his office, it's large and has a great view of the city. I read the titles on the spine of the books and see they're all law and business books. Boring!
I want erotica! I mean who doesn't want to read about pleasure though?
"Could you please sit down, that's really annoying while I'm trying to work," He said, not even looking at me.
I walked over to his desk and slumped on the seat crossing my arms over my chest. I looked at his desk and saw papers scattered around and picked one up hoping he won't mind
But he was so engrossed in what he was doing he didn't notice, as I read the information on the paper I grew more interested, so page after page I read and couldn't help the laugh that escaped my lips when I read the final page.
He looked up at me and frowned looking at the papers in my hand, I slowly put them on the table and looked down
"Is it a habit of you to touch things that don't belong to you?" I shook my head no, "Please don't touch my things!" He growled out and I vigorously nodded. Rude!
"How do you plan on winning this case?" I couldn't help but ask because looking at his notes, he was solely focused on proving that it was an affair instead of proving that they were just using each other for other reasons...
"What do you mean?" He asked a bit rudely, I guess I offended him.
"Correct me if I'm wrong, but looking at your notes, you are solely focused on proving that it was an affair instead of rape, but looking at all the records here it shows that your client has a habit of being sexually active with his secretary's. And since this one said no, he drugged her and raped her," I pointed to the medical records and other records of testimonials from his previous secretaries
"Are you ready for your correction?" He asked and I nodded, I was about to get burnt. "Keep out of things that don't involve you," He simply said...that wasn't a correction but okay.
"You didn't look at all the notes didn't you? You were going to accuse a woman who wasn't interested in a man to be involved with him in an affair?" I accused totally shocked
"For your own information, you're mixing two cases together. One has already been approved of rape and the other is completely an affair."
"But it's one man," I pointed out, confused.
"Correct, and I'm handling the affair, I told him to go to someone else for rape."
"Why don't you just leave the case altogether?" I see no point in him handling such a case when there's an interesting one on the desk
"And take which one?" He asked, annoyed.
I picked up the case file, "This one," And he raised his eyebrows.
"Double homicide?" He asked and I nodded, "Why?"
"I think the guy accused is innocent, unlike Mr Ferguson," I shrugged my shoulders.
"Why?" He asked again.
"Can we get some food first? I'm hungry," And I just wanted to read the case file again before telling him my points.
"Let's go, but when we come back you tell me why you think Jonah is innocent," He spoke right in front of my face and his minty breath hit my face.
"Can I take the file?" I asked in a small voice and he agreed, ooh I can't wait!
So I lost the bet, Johnny the big guy didn't win against the small guy and I was hurt, to say the least. "So are you ready?" Antonio whispered cockily in my ear and I frowned, following Johnny with my eyes, I will get him later. Where in the world has the big guy ever lost against the smaller one! Where!? Nodding my head trying to seem confident yet I was crapping myself, I wasn't ready for anything but a bet is a bet and I will keep my end of the bargain and carry out with the bet, I'm no wimp. "You know, it's okay if you don't want to," he said as we walked together hand in hand. "No!" I shouted and cleared my throat, "I mean I want to," I nodded my head trying to convince him but all I was doing was convincing myself even more. "Okay then, you will love it!" He exclaimed and I pressed my lips together and slowly followed him to our room, "Wait we have to eat." "Yes! Totally agree, I'm starving, I'll go make us food," I rushed to turn around but he caught me by my waist. “Tha
"Good morning Mrs Rossi," a voice whispered in my ear and I pushed his face away from me, mumbling a pained no. "Come on, it's time to wake up." "But I don't want to, leave me alone please," I turned my body away from him and the idiot seemed to follow me. Sticking his wet finger into my ear I jumped out of the bed and looked at him horrified. "What the hell is wrong with you?" I shouted at him and he laughed looking at me. "Come on, you promised to watch them today," he said walking over to me with his arms open for me, walking right into the hug I wrapped my arms around his waist and his hands touched the edge of his shirt before grabbing my ass. "They're not kids Ant, they will be just fine," I mumbled sleepily against his chest and he moved my hands from his waist wrapping them around his neck, picking me up as he walked us into the bathroom. "A promise is a promise Fiore," he said, sitting me down on the countertop as he opened the shower for me. "But there's always next ti
Antonio stood at the altar waiting for his bride to be, officially and right this time to come out. He too couldn't believe that the day had finally arrived and they were both ready to settle down so quickly together and yet surprisingly they were both more than ready for this change. It wasn't really a change considering that they had been living together for a long time and they had already been technically married just without Lotus knowing but now they had to do it in front of everyone this time and with her clear knowledge that it was happening. Antonio stood staring ahead at the door Lotus was supposed to come out of, which she hadn't yet and it made him feel nervous and panicky, that's why he had sent Charlie to go get her and Tiffany. They weren't late per se, but he just wanted to see her and hold her. He heard a noise that sounded like cheering on and he wondered what it was all about, the doors bursting open and causing everyone to look at them, out came Charlie and Tiff

The preparations for this day were stressful and fun at the same time, having my best friend or should I say my sister here to help me was a huge relief! Sitting on the bed together I watched her as she tried to fit her gown but it wouldn't get past her hips. "You have been gaining a lot of weight these days Tiff," I commented paging through the book she brought for me to get back in the mode of reading hardcover books, and so far? Still not interested, which is crazy cause I remember how much I used to love them when I was a kid. Oh well, I guess growing up changes a lot of things. "Yeah, I think I've been eating quite a lot." "Out with it Tiff, you pregnant?" I asked her closing the book and looking at her, her head dropped and she slowly nodded. "Why were you quiet about it?" "I didn't want to seem careless when I told you the news after you had just...you know," she said in a small voice and I frowned. "I'm sorry Lotus, it wasn't even my intention to get-" stopping her with a
After months of having to attend therapy sessions, eleven torturous months of sitting in front of Dr Meyer and telling her all about my problems and how I feel, it has been absolute hell and I am very happy that this is my last session with her. At first, I never opened up about anything and would always fire back her questions to her, for example, she would ask me 'how do you feel about that?' and I would answer her with a 'how do you think I feel about that?' I know she is here to help me get over my guilt and try to understand my emotions a bit better but come on, even you have to admit that some of the questions are a bit retarded. "So Lotus, how do you feel about this being our last session together?" "Uh, am I supposed to feel some type of way?" I asked her, does she want me to be sad and weeping that I won't be seeing her anymore and I won't have to answer questions and have her prove a point to me that would bug me out for a whole week until I see her. "It's all up to you
