Semua Bab 37 Days: Bab 31 - Bab 40

POVMillieI'm sitting on the guest bed e-mailing Marlene when I'm startled by a loud banging noise coming from Chase’s front door.“Where is she prick?!” I hear someone say, oh my god, no…X?I hear loud shuffling and doors being opened and closed and then he suddenly barges through mine.I’m pretty sure my mouth is wide open in shock at the sight of actually seeing X here. He looks like a madman right now standing in the doorway out of breath, hair messy, and looking like he’s been lacking sleep, but nonetheless absolutely handsome at the same time. This man couldn’t look unattractive if he tried.I push away my dreamy thoughts, “Wh-what are you doing here?” I say weakly.“No Millie, the real question is what the fuck are you doing here?” he asks snakily.Chase comes running through the door, “Millie!” he says breathlessly.“Get the fuck out!” X says and sears his eyes into Chase, if looks could kill, he’d be 6 feet under right now.Chase looks at me worried, more for me than for him

POVXWhen I’m done with my stressful calls, I’m exhausted from the day. I walk out of my office and see my bedroom door is creaked open with the lights on. I knock lightly on the door but no response, I peek in and she’s sleeping beautifully in my bed.The TV is on, and so are the lights, I start turning the lights off, and… what the fuck was she watching? Ah god, don’t tell me this girl likes these kinds of shows I think to myself and shake my head.I take the remote out of her soft hand and she shifts her body when I do so. She looks like a fucking angel sleeping so peacefully. I turn off the bullshit show she was watching and walk out of my room closing the door behind me and go to the couch to relax.After about ten minutes of relaxing, there’s a knock at my front door and I roll my eyes at whoever it is. I grunt and open the door to see Adria standing there with her arms crossed around her chest“What Adria?” I ask annoyed.She lets herself in and asks, “So? What happened in Mad

POVXI’m fully clothed now and in my office, Millie left ten minutes ago.I wanted this girl so fucking bad today but I ruined it by moving too fast. We did even fuck and it was the most sexually enticing experience I’ve had, which is saying a lot because I’ve had many threesomes, foursomes, and more.Millie has taken my desire to a whole new level. I should’ve known better that she’s not like these other girls who just give it up in a second, she’s a girl who needs time.I need to somehow deal with Adria too, Millie isn’t going to want to continue anything with me if she’s always overthinking everything.I get her fear of Adria, she’s a powerful woman and even most men don’t want to fuck with her. I need to stop obsessing over this and get started on work already.I open up my laptop and see an e-mail from Ray, my private investigator, and open it before even looking at any of the other emails that are probably more important. I asked Ray last week to give me a report on Chase. I wa

POVXJulian just left and I’m finishing off my phone call with Hugo’s partner. This deal with Colombia is kicking my ass lately and I just feel like giving up and saying fuck you to them but I can’t, we’re so close and after all this work it’d be a waste to give up now.I exhale loudly and rub the back of my neck. I heard Millie walking around the house a few minutes ago and I’m feeling uneasy about tonight because I want to talk to her about her mom. She’s probably going to be pissed that I looked into her past but there will be a lot of things that will bother her about me that are much more serious than this.I stand up from my black leather chair, push it in, and check to see if she’s in my bedroom.She’s sitting on the bed in all-black tight clothing, cross-legged, and doing something on her phone.“You wanna go now?” I ask her and she turns to me startled.“Oh hey, yeah,” she says and hops off the bed grabbing a thin zip-up hoodie from off her lap.We walk into the kitchen and

POV

I’m feeling beyond stupid for bringing up the situation with Millie’s mom the way I did. When I brought it up to her, I wasn’t in the least bit expecting how serious of a situation it was. 

During the time I got the report on Millie, I saw that her dad was deceased, which I already knew about, but I didn’t know it was only about 2-3 months ago. The report only said deceased, it didn’t say how he died, but she told me it was heroin. 

When I read that her mother was deceased too, I was floored, she died about three years ago, and of course no details or description of the circumstances relating to her death. 

I was thrown off seeing that, because the first moment I laid eyes on Millie, she was talking to her mom, which I now know she kept her mom's phone activated to call her and leave her messages. 

I feel like a total jackass because I insulted her about her relationship with her mom, not knowing the situation. It takes a lot for me to feel bad about something and I feel l
