Kariem's P.O.V.
I laughed along with the most beautiful woman I've ever seen yet I could feel the eyes of men on her like it was my second instinct to protect her.
Maybe it was Kristina's hair, her black natural hair, or maybe it was her smile that made me angry when it was forwarded to anyone but me, or maybe it was the way she talked so demanding yet assertive. Maybe it was the imagination of my mind, that she was actually here.
"Knock out of it you creep," she spoke me out of my reverie. I felt dumb. I wasn't one to feel this way, I would have her in my bed, on her back before she could even quint, that was who I was, a billionaire bachelor enjoying his bachelor days, but with Kristina. Damn, I was getting soft.
"Whatever," I rolled my eyes. Real smooth Kariem, rolling your eyes.
"Anyways, let's get straight to the point, why am I here?" Kristina was bold, it turned me on. The things we could boldly do. 😉
"We are here to have lunch duh," I said fakely annoyed. She amused me to the fullest. I feel love struck. Snap out of it fool.
"You know what I mean Kariem!" She demanded. I groan as I felt myself harden.
I opened my eyes, feeling my eyes dilute, "I would advise you not to say that again."
"What did I say, Kariem?" She asked boldly, this woman had guts I thought.
My reflexes clicked and before she knew it, she was on the wall in the restaurant with my hands caging her in and my lips close to hers. Her chest heaved.
I felt my eyes darken more.
"If you even so much as whisper my name again, I'll bend you over on the restaurant table, on the ground, in the kitchen, on the restaurant's front desk, even tape you on this wall and ravish you over and over and over again, after I close down the restaurant for some days. Don't play with me kitten."
Her breath hitched, her eyes widened and she held her mouth agape.
"You'll be making much more faces than what you have on now kitten," I lightly kissed her nose before strutting off, not caring about the eyes on me.
I opened the restaurant door, only to see her still standing dumbfounded on the wall."Hurry up before I put my words into action babygirl," I said darkly, looking straight into her eyes.
I chuckled as she hurriedly went out the opened door, I went out after her.

I woke up the next morning energized as I was ready to see my kitten- ok, not mine but soon to be.
I worn my favourite colour tie today.
I slightly adjusted it as I walked pass the front desk. All eyes were on me, I rolled my eyes. I had someone to see and that was exactly where I was heading."Good morning Mr. King."
Greetings were thrown at me but I didn't care. Maybe I could kiss her today I thought or even ask her officially to be mine, yes that's exactly what I'll be doing.I walked and thought about my future with her. She would be my beautiful wife, and then a little her would be running around soon after. Definitely what I would love to wake to every morning.
I walked unwaveringly to her cubicle where she would always be into writing that one piece that she was seemingly working on forever. I couldn't wait to read it.
"I want you for myself Kristina," the same man from yesterday spoke to Kristina as I drew closer to her cubicle.
"I'm sorry Jeremy, I am not ready to be in a relationship with anyone, plus you are my manager," she replied, I smirked. This wasn't ease dropping I reminded myself, trying to not feeling guilty.
"I'll make you then." I could practically hear his lips meeting hers.
Rage.
The only emotion that filled me.In seconds he was thrown behind me over the cubicle and I was on top of him.
I landed two solid throws to his face and got off him.I was pissed. I held him by his neck and talked so everyone could hear and see my rage.
"Anyone, I mean anyone who touches or even looks at Kristina too hard or long will be looking like this man here. Trust me, I'll ensure it happens before you can even regret it. By the way, your fired, Jeremy." I spoke firmly with disguise, dropping the groaning body on the ground.
"Meet me in my office now Kitten."
