We arrive at the office on time and walk to the reception and I am told to head up to Miss Abraham’s office, thank the heavens that the slutty receptionist was here today, we walk to the elevator and press the up button.   “Xander, does you being in a good mood means that your period is finally over right?” Charles snickers.   I sigh, “Ha-ha, very funny Dante,” I reply, the door opens, and we step inside.   “Charles, what did we talk about?”   Charles huffs, “No teasing Xander,”   I turn my head and look at Charles, “Look who’s finally become the submissive,”   “Shut it, James,” he mumbles.   “I think someone needs a spanking,” I tease.   Earning a chuckle from Damien, the elevator doors open, and we walk down the hallway to Miss Abraham’s office, just as we are about to arrive, Aiden comes walking out looking flushed

Xander Chantel Pieters, an interesting woman, but not more interesting than Nikki. She knows how to hold a conversation, knows a lot about business, sports and just everything else, not once did she show fear when I tried to intimidate her. She stood her ground and pushed back; I like her. To also add to her intellectual knowledge, she is beautiful, curly short hair, honey-brown eyes, freckles on her cute nose, gorgeous body from what I could tell and caramel coloured skin. No wonder my father is against them, they draw you in like bees to honey, and before you know it, you’re hooked. Stay focused, Xander. “So, how long will you be here?” “Well, I’m planning on going back, in a few days,” I reply, “Why?” “We need to discuss a few things about project finances, get your account details and just confirmation on transfers and all that,” she replies. “Sure, of course,” I nod. “Great,” she stands up from he

Xander   “Dude, come one, what’s wrong?” Damien asks for the 100th time.   “As I said, I do not want to talk about it,” I reply, looking out the window.   “Did she crack a male joke that threatened your masculinity?” Charles asks.   “No,”   “Did she touch your stuff?” Damien asks, “She nosy?”   “No.”   “Hungry?”   “No.”   “Then what the fuck is it Xander?” they all yell.   Ring, ring.   Thank you, Lord, for your timing.   “Hello?”   “Hello, this is Chantel speaking,”   “Chantel, hi, how are you?”   “I’m good, look, I’m just going to cut straight to the point, I know what you saw with Miss Abrahams, and I’d like to apologize on their behalf,”   “What are

I get home a little after 1 a.m., where did I go after my little disaster of a date? The bar right across the street from where I was staying, I needed something to drown my sorrows in and alcohol knew just how to do that. I needed to get my emotions in place and also, I couldn’t face Charles and tell him that I may have met his long-lost twin. I quietly walk into the house, well I try to, but the lights come on and I hiss, why are they so damn bright. “Well, well, well, look who decided to show up,” Charles says in a disapproving tone. “Hey, I am a grown man,” I say trying not to slur and sway. “You do know I can smell the alcohol from here?” I huff, “Whatever, I’m going to bed.” “Woah there, buddy, what happened? You’ve only ever been this drunk ever since you saw a picture of Nikki,&rd

Three days later   I ran, yep, you heard right, I ran away, like a coward. I went back home, I just couldn’t handle everything that was going on and I needed to be in a familiar place, where I felt at peace and back home in New York, was the best place. Also, I couldn’t bring myself to tell her that her boyfriend is planning to take away the one thing that she loved, she would have probably thought that I was out of my mind.   I am sitting in the dining room with Charles watching tv, nothing feels like home if I have to be honest.   “Xander, you haven’t been yourself lately, are you having nightmares again?” he asks worriedly.   “No, I haven’t Charles and I’m fine,” I reply, keeping my focus fixed on the tv.   He grabs the remote from my hand and turns off the TV, “Hey, that was the season finale.”   “Xander, dude, please talk to me,”   T

“Xander, it’s time to wake up buddy,” I hear Charles whisper. I groan, “Shit, I’m not ready,” “Oh, come on, you have to go back to work,” Charles replies. “Fuck, fine,” “How are you feeling buddy?” Memories of last night come flooding back into my mind and I feel like I’m going to faint. “I’ll get over it,” “Maybe but you know I’m always here for you right?” Charles says, “So is Damien.” “Thank you, Charles, now can you please get out of my room, I’m naked under here,” “Nothing I haven’t seen before,” he chuckles. I sit upon my bed and glared at him, “Get out please,” “Whatever bitch, we leave in an hour,” he says as walks out of my room, closing the door behind him. I get out of bed and sigh, today was going to be a long day. I lethargically make my way to my bathroom and get ready for the day. Thinking about last night, Damien was right, I do have to get rid of my father

I gasp, “Nikki?”“Hi,” she greets with a smile, “I’m so sorry to disturb you, Charles said I could find you here.”“Uhm, what are you doing here?”She looks down to the ground, “To see you of course.”So, Charles was right?“Come in,” I step aside and she walks into my office, I close the door and walk in, I usher her to my desk and she takes a seat, she looked as gorgeous as ever, glowing skin, bright-eyed and dressed to impress.I walk to my desk and pick up some paperwork, to pack it away.“You suddenly left, and you never called or anything, so as your business partner, I came here to check up on you,” she explains.“I do apologise for that Nikki, there were some urgent matters that I had to attend to. You know as CEO’s we can’t leave our offices for too long,”She nods, “Of course, I under

Xander We kissed, I kissed her, I kissed a woman and it felt amazing. I’m hit with another realization, that was my first kiss, my first real kiss. I walk to my car and I get inside, I’m pretty sure this is going to be all over the tabloids tomorrow but I don’t care, because if I died today, I’d be dying a happy man. I am also very sure that she liked it too, she pushes me away and she moaned. I turn on the ignition and make my way home. Today was, perfect. I went out with her, we connected, interruptions, no Charles, no hiccups, nothing. I felt like l could trust her, I think that’s why I found it easy to be vulnerable with her. She was supportive, she didn’t give me a lecture, like Charles would have. She listened, she really listened. Is this what love feels like? I get home and the house is quiet, and I assume that Charles and Damien are still out on their date. Can this night get any better? My phone beeps and I

It’s 11:30, meaning that it is almost time for me to go pick up Nikki for our day out in the town. I get up from my desk, pack my things and head out to the bathroom, which’s down the hall from my office, to change. I change into some blue jeans, I black t-shirt, a plaid shirt, and some sneakers, I don’t want to draw too much attention to myself, while I’m out, so I’ve got a cap and some sunglasses too. I go back to my office and call for Damien to bring in my car, a nice, small common Ford X, once he tells me that he has arrived, I make my escape before Charles comes back from his coffee run. I thanked Damien and I got into the car, turned on the radio, and heard my name. ‘President Xander Forsythe is said to be in talks with the government on new law changes that could see women getting the equality they deserve. Governor Smith is said to be working on a draft,’ ‘Well, it’s about time,’ another anchor says, ‘I do have a question though, why the sudden change of heart?’ ‘There cou

Next morning Nikki Waking up, I felt like a ton of bricks had been dropped on my head, but my body felt like it had been given a thousand fairy kisses. I groan, opening my eyes and taking in my environment. I panic, I’m not in my hotel room, I slowly sit up not wanting to give myself whiplash, I look down into the blankets, and I’m naked, that’s when it dawned on me. I slept with Xander, my business partner, my investor. I’m screwed. Quickly gathering my thoughts, I realise that he’s nowhere to be seen. He’s gone. Just great. I look around for my clothes, but I don’t see them anywhere. He took my clothes too. The door opens and the smell of bacon and eggs hits my nostrils, and I feel bad for judging him so quickly. “Good morning,” he greets with a wide smile. I haven’t seen him smile like that, ever. “Morning,” I greet nervously, “I thought you had ditched me.” He is taken aback by my words, and he frowns, he walks to my side of the bed and places the tray down on the bedside
