Thirty-one - Definitely hiding something

Her heart jumped, raced a little then it came to a calm state."Nathaniel..." her voice came out unintendedly softer."That's my name." His lips drew up into a smile. Her eyes went to them and she did not miss how different they looked in the dark. Maybe because of her closeness to it, it had a deeper colour that made his lips beckon towards her. "Are you done staring?""Uh?" she asked confusedly as her eyes met his.Soon she caught herself. She was being like a fool again.Without thinking she made to get his grip off her hand. But he wouldn't let her."Have you forgotten Chloe?""The time you said you wanted me?" He smiled. She fully recovered from her dreamy state. "No.""Good." Chloe let out a low yelp as he dragged her into his chest with a quick motion. His face leaned into hers, his breath fannned her face as he watched her and he said, "I don't want you to forget."Chloe was back into the trance. She could not fi

Thirty-two - High

Chloe sucked in and turned, her heart pounding. His eyes squinted at her. Her eyes fluttered as she tried to maintain some level of calm."Why do you-?" A loud kind of frog-like sound from his mouth interrupted his question causing Chloe to narrow her eyes at the man in front of her."Amir?"Then laughter followed. Her eyes narrowed even more. "Chloe?" His shoulders shook as he laughed even harder. "Chloe? You have..." He laughed even harder, his back bending. "You have three heads.""Uh?" "And you also have a dick!" His mouth was slapped by his hand as he tried to control his laughter."Amir, are you high?" Suddenly, Agent Markings words about drugging Amir came to her."I don't know!" This time his laughter was louder.She obviously wasn't going to follow his orders, but she was relieved that her gig was not up... yet. "Amir...""What?" His eyes which had turned puppy like looked into hers, his mouth

Thirty-three - Password?

"Good, we are all here." Nathaniel faced the uniformed man whose smirk almost grew as he and Chloe made eye contact. "Now, can you particularly say why you are here?""In due time Mr. Stone." Markings nudged towards Chloe who had found her stance between Amir and Nathaniel and said, "Is she your maid?""What is your business if she is? Mind what you are here for and tell us your damn business," Amir retorted."Mr. Cook. No need to be so defensive. It is quite obvious that she is anyway. Boys," he beckoned to the eight men in SWAT like uniform with helmet on their heads. As they came closer he started. "We are an Agency that deals with special crimes and we have a search warrant to search every corner of this house.""For the shipment?" Gabriel snickered."Bingo." Chloe could tell he wasn't going to limit how crazy he could be. "Now, all we want is your cooperation. In a matter of hours, we should be done." Then he chuckled loudly. "Th

Thirty-four - I can't get enough of you

"Hurry up boys. I am dying from suspense," Markings ordered quite excitedly as the men trooped into the large room.As the boxes were being ripped open, Chloe herself was beginning to die from suspense. Her neck craned from where she was in Nathaniel's arms as though she would be able to see whatever was inside before the men do."Well?" Marking asked one of the men who was staring in wonder at one of the opened boxes."All I can see here are clothes sir.""Same here," another one said from a corner."What do you mean by clothes?" Markings rushed into the compartment and true to the man's discovery, as the angry man dug into the box, packaged clothes came flying out."That dude better not ruin those goods. He won't be able to pay for any damages done," Amir said as he watched the dramatic display Markings was giving."Well, at least we succeeded in making him look like a fool," Gabriel added and Amir gave an agreeing smile."Ne

Thirty-five - Home is where the heart is

"Man, I am spent." Amir crashed onto the bare floor like he had just wheeled tons and tons of timber."You hardly touched five clothes man."His head raised a bit in Gabriel's direction, Amir said, "I know you don't really like me, but don't make me seem that lazy. Chloe?""Yeah?" She took a seat next to Gabriel, her hair falling down to the side."How on earth do you do your job? How do you not crash everyday? Man, you are really trying."She shrugged, a small smile on her lips. "I just do it. Besides, this wasn't that much of a stress compared to when Lucille and I arranged this entire room."Sighing almost pitifully, yet tiredly, he said, "We really don't pay you enough."Chloe's mind went to her untouched bank account which would be swimming in cash after what?- almost five weeks of working in their house? Was it even five? Time had really flown past and she had no idea what form the flight took.At leas

Thirty-six - Date between friends

"Chloe?" "Hi?" She took in a deep breath before deciding to turn to face the man behind her. "Who were you talking to?" Gabriel asked, his eyes darting to the running tap. "Uh... myself." "Yourself?" 'Oh boy.' Chloe's lips smeared into each other as she formulated her response in her head. "Well," she gesticulated. ", I have a health condition." He moved even closer, his frown deepening. "A health condition?" he asked, his hand going into his baggy jeans which he wore well with a grey turtle neck. "Well, the thing is..." She drew another breath. "I have this mental issue..." "Mental issue?" "I talk to myself a lot." "Don't we all?" Her eyes darted to the side, she bit her lip. "Well, in my case, I always imagine I am a detective." "Okay?" "And most times, I get quite violent." "What?" His head ducked a bit as he confusedly

Thirty-seven - Innocent Chloe

"He is in the library.""I need to drink some water.""Chloe," Gabriel reached for her before she could escape to the kitchen. "Don't make excuses.""But my throat is dry. See," she made smacking noises and turned her head a bit his way. "Very dry. I need tons of water.""Why are you acting like you are about to bomb a place?""Bombers drink water before bombing a place?" her brows knitted as she asked."Chloe," Gabriel groaned."I have never done this before Gabriel, I can't help but feel nervous." During the ride back home, Chloe reasoned everything out. With the way the Agency were acting, she might be under contract with them till she drops dead.So, since she always wanted to cross being in a relationship off her bucket list, she decided to take Gabriel's advice and take the risk of being with Nathaniel.Her presence in the house was a risk anyway. Extra risk wouldn't hurt.And whatever the nearest future wou

Thirty-eight - A jealous Chloe

"What are you doing here?" came Nathaniel's voice as he had her dissolve the hug. "I am here to see my favourites boys. Well, my favourite boy..." Her thick brows danced suggestively as she made to hug him again. He stopped her. "You should have called." "That was my point," Gabriel murmured as he found his stance beside Chloe who was still watching the whole scene in front of her play out. "Don't be this way Nate. It has been a while since I saw you," the woman called Kate whined. "Besides, even if I call, you never pick up. Don't be hard on me." She took a step closer. "Please..." the tone of her voice changed. Nathaniel sighed. "Let's-" "Who is she?" Chloe finally became visible and her sight caused a little frown on the woman's face. "She is Chloe," came Nathaniel's response as his eyes met Chloe's. "What is she doing here?" "I believe that is none of your business Kate. Now let's-" "I really want to

Thirty-nine - His woman

"Who is Tate?" A clueless Lucille asked."Oh. I forgot you... Tate is the man in that tape," Amir replied Lucille whose eyes glared on hearing his words."That very...?" she asked quietly. "Where is that bastard now?""Okay Lucille, deep breaths. We are following a plan here and I promise you, I want everyone involved in this nabbed as soon as possible. So, just keep calm, okay?""I am going to try." She sighed. "Gosh, I guess all that meditation didn't help. Look at me getting all angry again.""If is okay to be angry Lucille." Amir faced Chloe. "We will be leaving in an hour to meet Sebastian. So, be ready then."Chloe nodded, her eyes traveling towards the dining. Only Kate was in sight. She frowned."Am I coming too?""If you want." Chloe had to give it to Amir. He had learnt to be calm about the whole issue, it almost looked like he was not concerned. "Be ready in an hour." He repeated and walked away."Do you need

Forty- It is very real

"What you started yesterday?" she finally asked after recovering from the tingling within her.They stopped in front of her room door and he looked down at her. "First, we should talk.""I guess." He smiled and reached for the door handle. After opening it and motioning her in, he said, "We should talk about us." The door closed."Us?" she asked, her legs walking to her wardrobe to pick an outfit for her outing."Well, mostly you." She turned to face Nathaniel who had helped himself onto her bed."Me?""Quit your job as a maid," came his response, his eyes boring into hers.Throwing the gown in her hand onto her bed, Chloe could feel conflicts rising in her head again. "Uh?""I don't want you to work for me since we are in a relationship now.""I never agreed to being in a relationship with you," she said, her eyes darting to the side. His suggestion spelt serious disruption. But his last statement...
