The Billionaire's accomplice

The first sight...

He looked back at me with narrowed eyes, he was not even taken aback, obviously not caring about anything, "Well, will you tell me who you are or you want me to force the answer out of you?"  He folded his arms on his chest, leaning against the partially opened door, eyeing me with open disgust and annoyance at the same time.

This man's arrogance  provoked me even more. " Why should I tell you, get out! "

He stood there looking at me from  head to toe, obviously enjoying  the confrontation, with no intention to move. He then roared into laughter, a sound that was meant to insult me.

"Didn't you hear me, I said get out." The sound of his laughter affected me more, I was so angry that  I totally forgot that I was half naked in front of him,  I did not care who he was, the devil infuriated me,  then I suddenly remembered, my face turned crimson. He kept staring as if enjoying my embarrassment.

"Besides the fact, that you were trespassing, a 'strayed kitten'  like you should be the one to get out, or you want me to throw you out myself ? " He threatened, then  he looked at me, as if sizing me up, he was about to say something again but changed his mind, then he moved as if he suddenly lost the interest, "I will give you three minutes ."
Before I could say a word, he strode out and slammed the door behind him.

Three minutes, are you kidding me ?

Without wasting any time, I hurriedly dressed up, gathered my belongings, I scolded myself for not locking  the door, my knees still  felt wobbly, I have not recovered yet from that 'dizzying spell', How dared he called me a 'strayed kitten'? I had to get out immediately. I left the room, and the devil was nowhere to be seen,  I breathed a sigh of relief.
But who the hell was he?

GABRIEL

I strode out of the room, trying to control myself from something I could not name, and went straight to the swimming pool at the back of the house.

I stripped off my clothes and with  only my boxer brief on, in one swift motion I dived into the infinity shaped swimming pool, I  swam two laps, before emerging out of the water.

But the water could not seem to help cool down the heat that was boiling up from inside of me. I left the water, took a bottle of beer from the nearby fridge and drank the beer in almost one gulp, I suddenly felt so thirsty, then I laid down in one of the outdoor lounge chairs.

I  closed my eyes, but I could not seem to erase the sight of that woman on my mind, I could not accept that I allowed  a mere stranger  to disturb me.

Who the hell was she? And why  was she here at the ranch? And of all places, in my bedroom? Who allowed her to invade my privacy?

Just thinking about it for some reason, made me more angry, but there was something i was feeling inside that was totally alien to me, that I knew, would be too dangerous for me to define.

I just got back from my weekly inspection of the ranch, it was a long day, I felt so tired and badly needed a shower to relax my aching muscles, I had been out since the previous morning,  there were a lot of things to oversee,
I barely had enough sleep, so once the chopper I flew in landed, I immediately asked my assistant to tell everybody not to disturb me, I still have a lot of paper works to do, documents to read and sign, and I needed my bed.
I dropped by in Jeremy's room to check on him and found him alone and sleeping. I decided  not to wake him up and just see him later.

When I entered my room, and started to unbutton my shirt to go straight to the shower,  I suddenly heard a sound of movement  from the bathroom, i was instantly alerted, who would dare entered my bedroom when everybody knew that no one could enter there unless I told them to do so? I was very strict with my privacy, no one would even dare to invade the confinements of my personal space and disobey me, determined to find out who and what it was, with few strides, I opened the unlocked bathroom door...
