Iris's POV“The food will get cold.” I said to Arthur.“I'll be done in a minute.” He said.“Okay.” I said, and my eyes scanned the office. It looked magnificent and beautiful.“I said you're beautiful.” He reminded me.I blushed and tried to hide it from him.“Stop teasing me, it's too early for that.” I said.“I don't lie.” He said.“Alright. Just eat.” I said dismissively.He chuckled and clicked his tongue. He sat opposite me and took a bite of the food, from the way he moaned it meant that he enjoyed the food and as he took another bite I began to salivate, I was hungry, but I was contented seeing him eating first.“Eat well.” I said to him.“This food is delicious!” He exclaimed.“I know, which is why I've insisted that you eat well.” I said to him.“Did you make this yourself?”“The food?”“Yes, it tastes so delicious that it can only come from a beautiful hand like yours.”“I ordered for it, Anna recommended their services to me, and I have never patronized them before.“That

Iris's POV I was a little angry and disappointed when Arthur left with Kelvin. I waited a few minutes for his arrival, but soon discovered that he wasn't going to come. I stepped out of the office only to jump into Kelvin. “Hey Kelvin.” I said nervously. I couldn't look him in the eye as I was embarrassed by the happenings of that day that he barged in on. “Iris.” He greeted. “Arthur.” I said shortly. He nodded his head in understanding. “He left just now.” He said briefly. “Okay.” I said quietly. I cleared my throat and Kelvin smiled at me before leaving, I sighed and went down the stairs to meet with Anna. “Where's Arthur?” I asked her. “I guess he went for an important meeting.” She replied. “Do you know where he went to?” “No, but I guess it's important. He'll be back soon, don't worry.” I nodded my head and sat with her, the entire day I wasn't feeling happy and got moody while I anticipated his return. Soon it was time to leave, and he wasn't back yet, Anna recei

Arthur's POVMy blood boiled as Iris kept talking about her parents and family, she was overjoyed about it and even boasted of them. I had to hold back from venting out my anger and causing a scene, the same people who caused me pain where the ones she boldly praised and advertised in my presence, I didn't want to do anything that would hurt her hence I took it out on the meal she made for me.At first I felt cared for and important when she insisted that she made me a meal, I could feel the sincerity and care in her tone and actions but the fact that she brought up the same set of people who ruined a part of my life gave me a murderous intent. I reminded myself that I had promised not to harm or hurt her because she was innocent and also naive yet it was difficult at the moment because she was opening old wounds.I felt the pain I had felt when my parents died again that night and my breath began to hitch, if only she knew how much I hated those who birthed her, it crossed my mind

Iris's POVI woke up the next morning feeling alive, as my eyelids fluttered a sense of fulfilment washed through me, I couldn't describe all what I felt with words but I know it was the best feeling I've ever had so far. I stirred gently on the bed only to turn and face Arthur, the memories of the night flooded my vision and I couldn't help but blush. I could still feel what we had and it was thrilling.A little yawn escaped from my lips and I gently sat up in order not to disturb Arthur and stretched my arms. I felt strong and energized, almost ready to face anything the world would throw at me. Arthur slept peacefully like a newborn baby and didn't stir a bit.I couldn't help but chuckle and then adjust to a more comfortable position, one that allowed me to have a good view of him and I must confess that his face was addictive. The fact that we made love last night still amazed me and I pinched myself to make sure that it wasn't another dream, the tingling between my thighs reminde

Arthur's POVI stirred gently in my sleep as I felt something soft and tender touch my forehead, I would have woken up but a familiar scent hit my nostrils, I smiled recognizing what it was and opted to sleep a little more. I woke up later and couldn't specify for how long I'd slept, the first thought that crossed my mind was Iris. I wondered where she was and got up.Wearing a shirt that covered my bare chest; I went out of my room and went to hers but she wasn't there, on my way back to my room I heard some voice from downstairs and knew immediately that it was Iris, she was speaking to Anna on the phone about the endorsement we've bagged in the company and Iris was excited when she was been offered to be a model.I stood behind her and she still wasn't aware of my presence as she was engrossed with her conversation, when she was done she turned back to see me and was shocked, she immediately jumped on me like a kid who was seeing her dad for the first time in a very long time and
