I was mad, I was furious on top of all I was stressed. The emotional turmoil was creating havoc to my brain. I walked back to my office, I needed a moment of silence. I needed to calm my wolf who threatened to come out.
Breathing in and out a couple of times, I forced myself to relax. This is what Dolphus wanted to do, Intimidate me. I am not going to let him win. I took out my phone speed dialed Noah, he picked after a few rings.
"I need you to go and keep watch on my mother.... until I get there...Now!"
I was ending the call when a knock vibrated from the door. I muttered a simple come in. Bella entered afterwards her face was blank and eyes anywhere but on me. she stood at a reasonable distance from the table.
"I..I.. Sir I am sorry for the inconvenience, I shouldn't have left my phone"
I stared at her from head to toe, my eyes landed to her moving lips, which suddenly came to a straight line. I looked at the distance she maintained and back at the table. she was different from the rest of employees who were all over me, who would find small excuses to get near me or even close.
"I like it when people speak to me, to also face me"
I don't know why but the Authoritative tone came on its own. as if I was ordering one of my subject. The tone had effects on her as I could sense her tense building inside of her.
"Look at me!"
She collected her fingers in a thumb-in fist and slowly raised her eyes from the floor landing them on my own.
"That's better... so start again. why are you here?"
"I came to take back my phone Sir" stressing the last word showing her annoyance. Her eyes went back to stare at the floor.
"How is your mother doing?" I asked on purpose to hint at her that I know something. obviously the girl I was on the phone with must have explained that someone had picked the call. on impulse her brown eyes were back staring at my gray ones.
"She's fine..,Can I have my phone sir, I really need to get home before dark...."
The manner she used to ask for her phone was impatiently, as if she was avoiding the next questions or running away from this conversation.
"Well I forgot it at home, I don't have it here with me.."
I shrugged my shoulders to fake disappointment. I didn't even know why I was playing this game. I'm not usually the type to play like this. Either I'm removing the stress bag or I'm beginning to like this girl and the latter just shouldn't happen.
Her face showed creases, a clear evidence that she was angry. she clenched her fists even tighter. Short tempered I see.. she was battling to contain herself.
"Mr Benson told me, you said clearly I should come her after my shift ends."
"And you did just that?"
She became silent. her eyes fluttered close and open. She then turned towards the door.
"Excuse me...."
"Wait...Sit down" I added after she stood still. I motioned her to sit on the chairs across from me.
"I'm fine standing. Thank you"
Did she just talk back at me and disobeyed me at the same time. and surprisingly I wasn't angry. It felt something different. I didn't know what it was.
"It's an order!" I added firmly.
"And I refuse to take it!" she retorted back with the exact firmness I used.
I stood up, rounding the table. I took long strides towards her. She stood in place not wavering even a bit. she stilled while facing the spot I once occupied.
I draw out the phone from my left pocket raising it above her shoulders.
She twirled her neck slightly to drop her jaw slightly when she saw her phone.
she arched herself to snatch it from me but I raised it higher out of her reach.
"I prefer the obedient way.. if you agree with me" I spoke skittishly.
"Sit down.."
"I don't want to.."
**************************************************
This is not how I imagined this to go. He was testing my patience and I was up to my limits with him.
I was still angry at what his girlfriend or slut to be realistic said to me yesterday. And he was here playing dare games with me.
"I don't want to" I castigated confidently.
His eyes widen a bit and it proved that he was not used to be repudiated. His facial features distorted to display displeasure towards my manner of addressing him.
I was ready to jump off the cliff. No one has the right to order me around or debase me whatsoever for any
reason. regardless of their positions or statuses. Not even Enzo Bianchi.
"What was that..." He scolded menacingly.
"I said, I don't wan.."
A loud gasp escaped my mouth as I felt my body collide with the wall behind me. His face was a few inches away from mine. he pined my hands above my head.
Struggling out of his death grip to no avail, I paused to look at him in the eye. I didn't know he was a maniac. Is he really going to get physical with me. I was beginning to feel out of breath. He was going to beat me too. He knew my weaknesses. my mouth opened and closed like a fish taken out of water.
My head was spinning I was zoning out. I was going to faint. Hot tears pricked the edges of my eyes and I felt the air leave my lungs slowly.
I began panting for air and I felt my hands break loose as I was still struggling for air.
The next thing that happened to me knocked the remaining air inside of me. leaving me to freeze on the spot.
I felt soft soft lips attached to mine, soft air being blown out of them.
I composed myself to understand that Enzo's lips were on mine, He was giving me a mouth to mouth!! I felt a rush of adrenaline pumping my body and I pushed him away. subconsciously my hand lifted to slap him across the face.
"How dare you...." I enounced bitterly
He recovered from the slap, to say he was angry or furious would be an understatement. steam was coming out of his ears and nose. Inshort I was in trouble.
The next thing I know, I was pulled to him in full force that my front crashed into his chest. he grabbed my neck arching it closer to his face.
"You really wanna know?"
This was not how this was supposed to be.. He is not replying to my question like that because I didn't like how he said it. It felt wrong and wicked. And he did just that.
I felt the same lips on mine again but this time they were not soft, they were harsh. He was kissing me!, He was kissing Me!!!. My brain was screaming to me as if waking me up from this assault.
His right hand traveled down to grab my waist while the other secured my head in position. the moment I gasped in surprise was the chance he took to drive his tongue in my mouth.
In a flash of seconds The kiss changed from Harshness to something bittersweet. my eyes fluttered shut and my body reacted otherwise completely ignoring the noises inside my head.
I kissed him back...
