Lylani and Alejandro story. I barged into his office not caring what big meeting he had going on, all eyes snapped to me but I was only looking for those chocolate covered eyes. "You cold hearted demon!" I shouted causing gasps to fill the room, "You knew what happened to him and you didn't tell me!" I could feel the tears threatening to fall, I was a mess at this point. He got up and stalked towards me, glaring holes through my soul, each step he took I took another back, I didn't think this out. "Who are you talking to?" He asked calmly, too calmly for my liking, "So what if I knew? What would that change? Take this as a warning sweetheart because next time I'll bend you over that table and fuck you so hard in front of all these men and I wouldn't give a damn." He said and I could see his anger rising. I did the unexpected, I punched him. He didn't move, he was a bit taken back but hid his expression and regain his composure. "F*ck!" I hissed as I held my wrists tightly and feeling the pain more I let go slightly, the tears ran down my cheeks freely as I fell on my knees to the floor.
