Special Chapter
Nina Hayes
I woke up when the heat of the sunlight hit my skin and tried to block my face with my hand. I groaned and curled up while yanking the blanket around my body once again.
I want to sleep more. I barely got any sleep yesterday because of Vernon and his stupid stamina. So please, just a little more time okay? I told myself before closing my eyes in hopes of getting some more needed sleep to regain my strength.
It could be a minute or so but the next time I opened my eyes, a beautiful flower is right in front of my face. I smiled and looked up to see a very fresh Vernon with a small smile on his face.
"Good morning. Rise and shine, sunshine."
I accepted the flower and sat up. "Thank you." I sniffed the flower with my eyes closed.
Why do I feel like we are a
The Pervert JapaneseNina HayesTime flies too fast for my liking and, before I knew it, we are sitting on his private jet on out way back to reality. The time that we spent together isn't enough for me. No office hours, no jealous co-workers and just... us. When we are alone, Vernon turns to a different person. Not the strict and cold-hearted boss everyone knew and fear but the man who loved and got hurt. A man who is afraid of falling in love again.I have also come to realize what I really feel for him the the few days we spent together.&nbs
Rescue MeNina Hayes"I'm just so glad we got this deal. It would have been a waste if we didn't. And now, they're our partners. Maybe you're my lucky charm, Nina." Vernon said with delight.I swallowed and felt my throat tightening all of a sudden, like an invisible hand is gripping it. Vernon looks so proud of himself and I have never seen him like this before. Who am I to ruin it just because I want to act like a virgin again?I was once a whore who sells herself, right? What more will I lose if I spend a night with a guy? My mind is contemplating it but m
Memory of the PastVernon DelaneyA few minutes of silence passed between us. Mom left to give us some privacy but for me, she just left me with a starving tiger that could attack me any time."How have you been, son?" my Father was the one who broke the silence between us.I clicked my tongue and said. "Just dandy."He sighed under his breath. "Until now you have yet to forgive me. It has been a long time and I already told you I didn't mean any of it to happen. You're my son and I'm still your fathe
The TruthNina HayesThat same night and when I composed myself when he left, I packed all the things I bought with my own money and left the things Vernon gave me. I don't want to bring anything that will remind me of him.I wiped the tears from my eyes before placing the cell phone and credit card on top of the table. I still have some money left from my salary as a secretary, and I will use it to find a place to live and to start over.I
Girlfriend?Nina HayesI do not remember going inside the room when I fell asleep. Last time I remember, I laid my head on his shoulder after stealing a kiss. But I woke up to the feeling of him kissing my shoulder and neck."Five more minutes." I sleepily begged. "No more, baby. We're going to be late. Wake up, sleepyhead." He whispered in my ear and blow on it making me giggle. The warmth of his breath tickling me."Go away, old man." I heard his sharp intake of breath, and I stifled a laugh."Really now? I'll show you what this old man can do to that body of yours, young lady." He turned me so I opened my eyes and saw his handsome face. Before I could stop myself, I lifted my hand to caress his face. I could feel his thick beard growing. For me it just added to the charisma he had. I returned my gaze to his eyes and see that he's looking at me. "I love your eyes, Vernon. Is it your Mom's or Dad's?" I asked out of curiousity but stopped when I realized what I asked. "I'm sorr--""I
New Woman in His LifeNina HayesEven with the lack of sleep because of recent events, I still forced myself to go to work. I was unable to sleep last night because of what happened the night before. After Vernon defended me, they were lost for words and left in embarassment.I should be sad or angry because they insulted me but I feel so damn good, amazing even.Girlfriend? Is that really my role in Vernon's life now? Can I even consider Vernon as my boyfriend or did he just say that to protect me from my parents? Because he feels sorry for me? He wants to help me?
HeartacheNina HayesI'm banging my head gently against the wall of my condo unit as a punishment for myself. My mind is playing the same scenario over and over again for the past few hours since I arrived from work."Oh, don't be so full of yourself, Mr. Delaney. It means nothing to me and I'm not jealous. Not even a bit." I said coldly and looked away from him. I kept my face expressionless so he will not see through me.I felt his burning gaze on me but I refuse to look at him again, afraid that he will see
The woman who weeps on the shoreNina HayesUsing Vernon's private we flew the next day to Maldives. I didn't even try to sit next to Vernon because I knew Mona would be there, so she sat in the vacant seat next to Ryker.Ryker is actually a fun person to talk to because he has a sense of humor and you really can't get bored when you're with him. But even if Vernon's quiet and not as friendly as Ryker, I still wanted more than anything to sit down and talk to him. Or just sit beside him like I used to. Unfortunately, someone sit
