LANI POV
Arriving at work I said Hi to people names I forgot. I was being stared at and looked up and down like I did something. I heard somebody say something about the restaurant. Hell NO. Word gets around quickly. They knew what happened.
I smiled at that.
Did they know he took me to his house? I laughed. I walked up to a worker Named Amil who I hated. I knew she had a crush on Mr.Valentino, everybody did. She always was the main one gossiping and laughing when I walked by. I stopped and I said to her " Hi honey how are you doing today?''
She looked confused. "Good."
"I figured you heard I had an allergic reaction, then Kilo took me to his beautiful house. We had a wonderful time. Have a good day," I said smiling and walking off, laughing so hard I wasn't looking where I was going and bumped into someone. I looked up to see Kilo. He heard everything. I knew because of the evil ass look he gave me. Then he grabbed my arm and pulled me into the elevator, I blew Amil a kiss and laughed, she was furious.
I like that.
Once we got in and the doors closed he damn near threw me to the wall and then ran up to me. I turned around to face the corner I didn't want to face him nor talk to him. He turned me around with his strong hands and got in my face so close that I could kiss those juicy pink lips. Damn, he was fine.
I tried to move but he pushed me back. He got closer and breathed on my lips it's like he was begging for a kiss. I wanted to but I never make the first move. There was less than an inch in between us and he just got closer and closer than he finally said "We had a wonderful time last night huh?'' he laughed "Imma show you a wonderful time Ms. Paris'' His voice was so fucking sexy. Then I realized I was mad at him and pushed him off of me. "Move," I shouted trying to get away from him. I knew he was playing with me. Somebody like him could never be with somebody like me. I was just so basic, I wasn't even basic I was under basic whatever that means. He then grabbed my arm again and took me into his office.
"I left food for you this morning, why didn't you eat?" He said pulling out something from the mini-fridge. I didn't even know he left food for me, I wouldn't have eaten it anyway.
I sat down.
"Eat," he said, handing me some fruit.
"No," I said turning around
"Eat'
"No"
"EAT"
"NOOOO"
He quickly got up and stormed to the other side of the desk and got on top of me. He grabbed my face roughly holding my chin with his strong hands. Grabbing a piece of fruit he slowly put it into my mouth. Feeding me. I swear I almost spit it out.
"You didn't want to eat breakfast this morning," He said looking deep into my eyes. "Be a good girl and I wouldn't have to stuff food in your mouth"
He was really pushing it. I wanted to get up but he held tightly onto my face. His muscular strong body was also on top of me. Then he just kept feeding me, slowly putting the food into my mouth until it was all gone. I just stood there, wanting to leave.
He slowly got up making the chair fall back but he caught it and kept doing it on purpose, I blushed. Was Kilo Valentino playing games? I laughed at him.
"Let me go," I said laughing and playing. He finally got up and straightened his suit.
"That's enough Kehlani, we should get back to work," He said in a playful voice.
Did he just call me by my real first name? I didn't like being called by my real name Kehlani. I preferred Lani. It's not that I didn't like my name, it's that I hate hearing it, it reminded me of the awful things my step dad did to me. When he would yell my name and scream at me for the littlest things. Throw things at me such as glass bottles, plates, heavy items, and much more. I'm so lucky and thankful I got out of that hell hole of a house away from my step-dad. It's funny because he was never like this. Never. He only started all this when my mother died and till this day he still blames me.
Even though I hated hearing my name the way Kilo said it was different. I liked hearing it from him. Kilo has this deep sexy voice and a little bit of an accent.
He had been talking to me the whole time about work and I haven't even been listening to him at all...
"I'll get to work then," I said while getting up and leaving but before I could he grabbed my arm.
"Are you ok?" He asked, looking concerned knowing something was wrong with me.
"Not like you care," I replied while pulling my arm back and left.
KILO POV
I don't know why I act that way around Kehlani. I have been slipping up ever since I met her that day. I can't be doing that shit. She brings out the best and worst in me and I just fucking met her and I can't let this happen.
I have been slipping up in every way. At work. At home. With the family...
But there's something up with her.
I called my Private Investigator.
"I want a full dossier on Kehlani, I want to know EVERYTHING," I said and hung up
She's hiding something aside from what I already know about her and her corrupt father she's hiding something...
About ten minutes later Robert came into my office with the paper about Kehlani.
It says she moved here no less than a month ago. Her mother died when she was 15. Doesn't know her father and lived with her step-dad until she turned 18 and left. Didn't even go to college. Wow...
Apparently, she's a runaway. I fucking knew it. But why would she run away? Why didn't she finish school? I had to find out.
I had everything planned for us next week.
But for now, I need something from her.
I looked over to see her working.
I didn't notice how beautiful she was until now. She had beautiful brown eyes and long silky hair. When the sun hits her beautiful skin she glows. She was perfect.
But I can't not after everything that has happened.
LANI POV
I caught Mr. Valentino staring at me a couple of times during the day but he would always look over when I caught him and I laughed every time.
I was walking to the printer room and bumped into Amil.
"Sorry excuse me," I said, helping her pick up her papers. I didn't like her but I wasn't going to be a bitch and not help. As I was picking them up I saw a picture of me and Kilo. The day he took me to lunch. She tried to grab it but I snatched it before she could.
"Where the fuck did you get this?" I asked. I have never seen this picture before and I had no idea why it was taken.
She didn't say a word.
"I'm talking to you," I shouted with anger. I hate when people just decide to fucking ignore me especially when it's important I want to know where she got this and why does she have it.
"I-I-" she stuttered on her words.
"You what. Cat got your tongue Amil," I laughed.
I can't believe this bitch.
"It's none of our fucking business," She replied and grabbed her papers. "Don't FUCKING play with me Lani I will ruin you"
"GO to HELL," I yelled in her face. She had no fucking right to talk to me like that. With her limpy ass ain't nobody scared of her.
"Ms. Paris, my office Now," I heard Kilo say. I followed him to his office and as soon as we got in he slammed the door.
"Why did I hear you YELLING in my building," he said furiously with me. I have never seen him this angry and damn was it scary.
Scarier than his regular anger.
I gave him our paper. He looked confused and concerned. "Where the fuck did you get this?" He repeated the same words I told Amil.
"Ask Amil," I said.
He quickly grabbed his phone and called somebody. He started yelling in Italian.
"Scopri chi cazzo ha fatto quelle foto di me e Kehlani."
All I could understand was my name.
"I'm sorry for yelling," he said in an actually concerned voice.
"Sure," I said looking away. I hated being yelled at. That's all my stepdad Gilbert ever did. Who the fuck names their kid Gilbert? I hated everything about that man . I told my mother he had bad news. But she was so stubborn. Just like me...
I got up and it was time for me to leave.
"Where are you going?" He asked.
"Home," I said, reaching for the doorknob. He put his hands on mine clearly trying to stop me. I put my forehead on the door. At this point, I was so tired and exhausted and once I get to thinking about my mother I can't get her out of my head.
"Go sit down, we need to talk," He said while locking the door.
I sat down and became comfortable. "What do you want Mr.Valentino?" I asked all ready to leave. Saying his name makes me tired and miserable.
"Why did you come to New York?" He asked.
"Cause I wanted to, Why are you questioning me?"
How the fuck does he know so much about me?
"Why'd you run away from home?" He said it was calm and cool.
How the fuck did he know I ran away from home. He's been stalking me.
"What makes you think I ran away?" I said Laughing. Trying to act cool and lie.
"WHY?" He said, raising his voice. Changing his mood once again.
"Cause I WANTED TO," I replied yelling at him. He had no right to yell at me and question me. I have been through enough and I don't need him poking his nose in my business.
"Well, you're not leaving until you tell me," He said, reaching into his drawer for something.
I Laughed. "I'm leaving," I said, grabbing my purse and heading for the door. He grabbed my arm and I felt something clutch on my wrist. I looked down only to see he had cuffs on me. Why the fuck did he even have handcuffs in his office?
