Semua Bab A PACT TO LOVE: Bab 131 - Bab 140

I watched as William walked out of the closet wearing only his office slacks with his shirt unbuttoned. I could never fully look away anytime William’s chiseled abs were on display. He noticed my gaze, a subtle smirk forming on his face. He walked closer to the bed and leaned down, holding my neck lightly as he raised my head. I met my lips with him, I parted mine slightly, letting his tongue in to explore mine briefly before pulling away, Just that short kiss left me already weak in the knees.The week flew by in a blur and It was already a Thursday. Romeo had texted me, mentioning that he got my number from William and inviting me to his beach theme birthday coming up on Saturday. So that meant I had to shop for a gift for him but I didn’t exactly know him and I needed William’s help with that.“Ask away,” William says, interrupting my thought as he buttoned his shirt.“What time do you think you’ll clock out from the office today?” I asked, playing with the sleeves of my pajamas, g

William’s P.O.VI could hear the sound of music and chatter from a mile away. Romeo was known for throwing extravagant parties and today’s party was nothing short of that. Out of the three of us, he was the most outgoing and most social. The pathway was lined with tiki torches, illuminating the place with a soft, flickering glow, on one side, a bar beckoned guests and a bonfire in the center cast shadows on the beach sand.I surveyed all the guests he had invited and I was surprised, it seemed he kept the guest list short. As I strolled through the entryway, I picked up a glass of martini from a waiter with a tray.I immediately spot Romeo with Luke and walk to them. “William,” Romeo shouts, waving to me.“Is he drunk already?” I asked Luke arching a brow at Romeo as I skeptically observed him as he sipped from his glass. Luke turns to Romeo and runs his eyes over his face for a moment before shifting his attention back to me. “I think so, his party is only just starting. From what

The venue of the event was thankfully not too far from the hotel we were staying in. In under five minutes, we arrived at the venue and I was blown away by the beautiful decorations. Whoever did the decoration had certainly done a tremendous job.I took my spot beside William at the door as we welcomed the guests in like perfect hosts. I maintained a permanent smile on my face till that stage was over. After that, William and I got separated since he still had a lot of responsibilities to attend to.Finally, I stepped into the grand ballroom, the scene was nothing short of amazing. Chandeliers hung from the ceiling casting an ethereal glow on the guests. A waiter passed by me and I grabbed a champagne flute from the tray, downing the liquid as I surveyed the room filled with guests who hurdled in circles, discussing in hushed tones and sipping from their respective champagne flutes.A few feet away from where I stood, I spotted William and watched him with a sense of pride as he app

I slowly opened my eyes, blinking as I tried to get accustomed to where I was. Sitting up slowly, I yawned and ran my hands through my hair. I had somehow unintentionally fallen asleep on the balcony.I stood up, stretching my body as I felt discomfort from sleeping in an uncomfortable position for so long. I headed back into the room, locked the balcony doors, and glanced at the empty spot on the bed. My eyes slowly went over the empty room before finally landing on the clock.Why wasn’t William in bed at midnight? I thought worriedly as I stared at the bed. Maybe he was caught up with work and had lost track of time.First, I walked to the bathroom to wash my face and brush my teeth before changing out of the clothes I had on, switching them for my comfortable pajamas.William still wasn’t back and for some weird reason, I was feeling quite uneasy. I paced back and forth in the room numerous times, waiting for him to walk through the doors but he didn’t. Maybe he lost track of time

I followed what Shayna said and gave him space, chunking the reason for his outburst due to maybe something going wrong at the office but I didn’t think it was that anymore. He had taken a whole 360 degrees, he didn’t talk to me nor glance my way, he kept his distance away from me and even closed from work later than he normally would. For the last couple of days, I had been spending more time in my room so I wouldn’t have to cross paths with him and get him angry. My waist was a bit better now, Agatha had helped me apply ointment for it. Now, it wasn’t discolored and the bump had reduced. I walked into the bathroom, stripping out of my pajamas as I walked under the shower head. I spent a while in the shower, I loved the feel of the warm water cascading down my body.Only when I noticed I was starting to prune did I turn the water off, I walked out of the shower and picked up my towel to dry my body before making my way to the closet to get dressed. I pull on a cute playsuit and use
