“I know you have little to no knowledge of art, but thank you for coming with me, Jasmin,” Lisa said as she held onto Jasmin’s hand and walked her through the security checkpoint at the art gallery. “It’s fine, besides this is far better than the plans I had for tonight, which was nothing,” she answered and they goggled together. Lisa had called a few hours ago, asking if she was free to come out with her. Charming was showcasing some of her recent work to the public and though Zoe, her friend, or Xavier, her boyfriend, would have been the better date for the day event, they all had excuses. Zoe's excuse was that Victor was taking her out on a town fare and Xavier said he was having a business meeting with partners from outside the country and as much as he wanted to, he couldn’t come. Jasmin was Lisa’s last option, but it didn’t upset her because she did not know what an art display was all about over an hour ago. Lisa needed a plus one and Ch

A few days later, “And we are here,” Cainan announced as he offered Jasmin his hand and she took and stepped out of the car to see and appreciate the magnificent mansion before her. Well designed that it sent her into a state of awe. She had never been to his place, so when he invited her over for dinner, she accepted without hesitation because she wanted to know where he lived and also because the invitation was long overdue. Though they started dating months ago, Cainan had never found the perfect time to bring her over because of their work and other events surfacing. Today, however, was one day she closed early from work and Cainan thought it was the perfect time to bring her over to his humble abode so they could spend some quality time together. After the incident that took place five days ago on their way back from the police station, things had become awkward for the both of them. Flashback On seeing Cainan stand

“You’re right, that man is an ass,” Anita cussed as she stepped into the kitchen and it caused a few heads of the waiter’s as well as cooks to turn to her. She sighed and placed her hand on her hip, “I didn’t mean to startle anyone and I am sorry if I did.”   “What man is that?” Jasmin asked as she fitted the spring roll into the box and placed it on the tray.   “Who else? Ass hat Jude!” she cussed again.   Jasmin's brow pulled together at her friend’s displeasure. “What did he do this time?”   “Be an ass like always and he wouldn’t let me take his order and insisted that you do it.” She replied and placed her hands on the counter and leaned against them. “I told him you were busy, and he said he wouldn’t mind waiting and when I was taking my leave, he called me a bitch.”   Jasmin’s teeth clenched together and picked up her tray before storming off, she ser

“Do you want to talk about it?” Cainan asked as he offered her a glass of milk as soon as she stepped into the living room. He had insisted immediately they got in that she took a shower and change as it would help calm her raging nerve and though she wondered how he knew how she was feeling; she said nothing to that. She saw him pull his phone out and dialled a number and a few seconds later; he spoke to someone on the phone about the incident that took place earlier. Then he gave the address to them, maybe so that they could check up on Jude whom he had left in an unconscious state earlier.  Before leaving for the bedroom, she handed over his jacket to him despite being used to its warmth and smell and not wanting to give it back.  She was now in her grey pyjamas with her hair tied into a messy bun with a few strands of hair falling to her face.  He was nowhere to be found when she stepped into the living room a

She barely had the words out when he hungrily claimed her lips in his and gathered her into his hands.   He took her into the bedroom and as her back hit the bed; he pulled off her pyjamas, leaving on her blue, lacy panties and he seemed to like whatever he was seeing because he grinned happily.    “You’ve tortured me for so long that I’ve wanted to do this all those times I held you close. You’re just as gorgeous as you are stubborn.”   She lifted her leg up and slowly trailed it over his shoulder, as usual, trying to show just how stubborn she was. But he caught her leg and lathered it with soft and weakening kisses and her back arched up in response as purr after purr erupted from her throat.   Her panties at this point were soaking wet, but she couldn’t help it.   He finally set her leg free, and she felt him tug on her pyjamas top and she arched h
