TWO SOULS ONE HEART

Chapter 5

The club was the perfect place for me to ease some stress. I needed it urgently at this moment because of how much intensive work I've been preoccupied with for the past two months. Actually, I didn't think I needed any rest but immediately I sensed the atmosphere I knew I otherwise. The VIP section of the club was exactly what I craved. Concealed noise, nice comfy chairs, chilled drinks, smooth atmosphere. I mean, it felt perfect--it was. I was already sleeping off when Ivory tapped me.

  'Lisa, don't tell me you're already sleeping? Are you that comfortable here? Because I can see how relaxed you look. Well, this is where I come to relax too so I definitely knew that you wouldd love the place.' He said smiling.

  'Well, this place is just what I need because I am extremely stressed. Like extremely. I have been working hard lately and I've actually forgotten to rest but this is the best feeling I have felt in a while. Thanks so much for the treat Ivory I really appreciate it!' I replied smiling, clutching his hands warmly. I could feel all the love at once. I've just known this man for a limited time and I really enjoyed or rather, I'm enjoying my every moment with him, the dream and all plus, the way I feel whenever he touches or looks at me is what is making me think that I am truly in love with him.

  'Nice to know you feel this way. I'm really glad. So, do you want to dance?' Ivory asked smiling,

  'Sure.' I agreed, moving closer.

We danced the night away and had lots of fun, drinking and dancing. It ignited some part of me I thought I had already lost. Honestly knowing Ivory has been really a good ride.

  'We should head to the house Lisa. People are already leaving and you look really exhausted. You need to really rest too. Let's head to the parking lot, our car is waiting.' He said, pulling me up to my feet and clutching me to himself. The beauty of being with Ivory is that he goes around with security. Bodyguards and the rest. And, his driver is a very stern human too. No matter how you smile or joke with him, he doesn't smile back. I hope he's a real human because if he happens to be a robot, I will be pained. This particular driver is actually damn cute.

On getting to the car, I heard Ivory talking to his driver asking him to join the other escort, saying he would drive himself and they should just follow behind. My eyes flew open. Did he just say that he wants to drive us? Hasn't this man had a lot to drink? He doesn't look drunk though but we still needed a driver.

  'Hey Lisa, are you ok? You looked confused.' He asked, features showing concern.

  'I was. Why do you want to drive? Because you've already had too much to drink dear. Let your driver take us home.' I said slowly.

  'I am not drunk Lisa. I'm very sober and sane to drive us home. I just want us to have some alone time, that's all. So, don't worry dearie, we are safe. Just buckle up and enjoy the ride home.' He replied with a kiss on my forehead, started the car engine and began to drive off.

Once we were on the expressway heading to Ivory's apartment, the gentle squeeze Ivory gave my hands made me feel very safe. And with that, I fell asleep.

We got to his apartment after what felt like forty-five minutes but in the real sense, we spent an hour on the road, completely forgetting that we drove out of town to go to that fancy club. Anyways, immediately I alighted the car, Ivory did too after a while. His domestic staff were waiting, quite expectantly. I was welcomed with warm and broad smiles. I wondered why they were smiling so much at me but it was exactly what I needed anyways.

  'So, this is my fiance, Lisa Shof. I had to bring her home for you all to see and meet her. I'm sure you all have been wondering if I had a woman in my life. Yes I do, but I needed to take a close watch. So you guys meet my heart beat, the love of my life and everything I have.' he replied kissing my cheek and giving me a side hug.

  'Nice to meet you all.' I replied trying very to hide the shock I was going through at the moment. Did he really say fiance? This man has really got me hooked. So I will be married soon without my permission.

His workers were really happy to a point their whispers turned to loud shouts of happiness. Like really? Anyways, this was going to be really fun.

We proceeded to the sitting room. It was just as a matured bachelor's sitting room should be like. Nice colors everywhere with the most beautiful paintings on the wall. The interior decor in general was just really fascinating.

  'What was that about?' I asked, giving him a pointed look.

  'I was very serious about every single word I said out there. I wasn't joking dearie. You are soon to be 'MRS LISA WELLS.' I will get a ring tomorrow and invite a few friends to make it official. Invite yours also because I have found love in a person and I shall keep it.' He replied surprisingly, sternly.

  'You should have at least discussed it with me before announcing it like that. Do you know how rude this is?' I was already sounding angry-- I was but kept my tone in control.

  'If I had asked you, would you have said yes?' He was sounding pissed too. Oops, he is pissed off.

'No bu-' I was cut short.

'Exactly my point!' He began walking out.
 
'Hey stop!' I screamed.

'Look Lisa, I love you so much and I can sense you do also! Why don't you at least give this, us, a try? I truly love you and want you to be the mother of my kids and my life partner. That's how much I really need and want you.' He said and walked out, asking me to join him in the room
