HE'S WICKED 😈

CHAPTER SEVEN

She was getting used to waking up beside him, his arms wrapped around her, his soft breath on her skin, his cold hands touching her warm skin, he always kissed her neck and made her laugh, he was an amazing lover and she was letting all this emotions get to her, she shouldn't let Alphonso in, But she couldn't help it, his charming smile and arrogant face were already imprinted in her mind, now she had to work hard to make sure he wasn't imprinted in her heart. She saw less of Brass these days, they spoke on phone once in a while, everything seemed fine, she was happy, her book was almost finished and the publishing company were cutting her some slacks, it all seem too good to be true.
***
He hated how much he wanted and needed her, when he was at work, he missed her, when he was in his bed and she was in hers, he missed her even more, Alphonso didn't like the way they were becoming dependent on each other, the feeling was heart warming but it threatened everything he believed in. This was what he was trying to avoid, he couldn't fall for her, this was just a beneficial relationship, nothing too serious, he shouldn't let it get to him, damn it, why won't Claire just return, he would have been on his way to France 🇫🇷 by now, far from all of this and far from this emotions gathering for her. He has to put some distance between them, it was for their own good, he didn't want to hurt her.
***
The meeting with the Publisher and Editors was coming to an end, when a woman walked in, she was tall and slim, her shady blond hair was held up in a bun, her golden brown eyes were a little sad, she looked around the room as though searching for someone, their eyes meet, her eyes reminded Beatrice of Alphonso, they were the exact same shade and colour, they were really beautiful, she smiled at the thought of Alphonso, he was always on her mind, he was like a drug, am addiction. The lady smiled at her
"Excuse me Beatrice"
Her Editor got up and followed the woman out
"Welcome Clai...."
She didn't hear the rest of their conversation as they left the office. She sigh and lean back on the chair, thanks to Alphonso, she's been able to overcome her writers blog and was able to
Complete her novel of two years, she spent two fucking years trying to figure out what to write and how to complete it, but immediately she meet Alphonso everything changed.
"I love that man"
Immediately she said it, she bit her lower lip in regret, why did she say that? Dear God she sure did hope it wasn't true.
"Are you okay Beatrice?"
"Yeah, am good, please excuse me"

Paula remembered where she saw that damn Woman, so he picked the Author, she took a deep breath and lean back on her chair, she was going to have him no matter what, whatever it took. And if she couldn't have him, no one else will.
