Zaria POV
I must say that I enjoyed my weekend with Alexander. All the shopping and looking at houses we did was extremely exhausting I didn’t see how people did it on a regular basis. The first thing we did was go get me a car he asked me what my favorite was and I told him I always wanted a BMW so we went and scouted out one that I liked. We ended up leaving with a fully loaded black on black BMW truck with leather heated seats, a panoramic moonroof, a gps, and more. I didn’t want all of that but Alex insisted so I happily accepted. After being in the car shop so long we grabbed something to eat to ease our hungry bellies. Then he took me shopping for clothes and shoes before looking at houses.
We looked at six houses total with me liking 3 of the 5. I had all the paperwork listings for them and just wanted to look over them all before making a final decision. Alex said he wanted me to make the decision seeing that I would be there majority of the time. After all the shopping we came back and made love not only once, but twice and even a third time before we called it quits and just laid in each other’s arms. Enjoying every little moment before he was gone for a month or two dealing with his wedding and what not. I didn’t want him to leave but he promised we would talk or text every day and I was very much looking forward to that. So after he left I showered and got ready for work.
Alexander POV
My weekend with my love was magnificent, and I hate I had to leave to deal with wedding stuff that wasn’t with her. After the glorious weekend I wish I was marrying Zaria. Now I had to deal with Jennifer and the off the wall request that she wanted. She don’t tell me what to do and when to do it. When I see her with the new contract is when I see her not when she wants me to. I arrived back at my house when I came through the door I was met with a seething raging Jennifer.
“How dare you treat your soon to be wife this way. I don’t deserve any of this bullsh*t that you’re putting me through” she spat angrily. I rolled my eyes and looked at her with a disgusting expression on my face. I said “treat you like what, don’t forget this is a business contract. I don’t need your father to be a backer for my company at all I’ve got others. I’m just going along with this out of the respect for my parents. I can easily say no and deal with the consequences. Don’t ever talk to me like that ever again”. I retreated to my room to shower and head to work.
Jennifer POV
As I watched him go upstairs leaving me there mad as hell. I silently said to myself we will see about that. There is no way I’m letting the mistress win over me. I’ve done to much to make this happen and will not let things get ruined by this slut. So I decided to pay her a little visit to make sure she stays away from my husband. As I waited until he left for work, and the leasing office to open before leaving. I found out that she works right in our leasing office thanks to my private investigator.
As I walked into the leasing office I was greeted by the leasing consultants. One asked what could she help me with and I asked to speak with the manager and waited til she returned. When they both came back out Zaria eyes grew wide when she seen me. I greeted her and asked if we could speak in her office. She agreed and led me to the back and shut the door as she offered me a seat.
“What can I do for you Miss”. I cut her off before she could get the sentence out. “Soon to be Mrs. Knight get it correct before assuming anything. Now I want you to listen to me and listen to me clearly okay. I’m only going to say this once before I get physical. I want you, no I need you to stay away from Alexander. We will be married soon and there is no room for a mistress like you to be involved in the marriage. So if you don’t want to be known as a home wrecker which I could easily do and ruin your reputation and get your fired. I suggest you end things, or things will not look to pretty for you”.
“Are you threatening me” she said?! “No this is not a threat, it is a promise and just because you move don’t think I won’t find you” I said. I got up from the chair and whispered in her ear “this is just a taste of what I have, keep this relationship going and things will not end well for you here” as I tossed a manila envelope on her desk and left. I was happy with myself and my accomplishments. After I left the leasing office I gave myself a pat on the back for such a good job. I thought to myself she will leave him be once she opens that envelope as I smiled to myself.
Zaria POV
I made it to work safe and sound in my new car and finally parked in the spot reserved for me. I was super excited and couldn’t contain my happiness. Me and Alex were doing good and taking things slowly. I settled into work before grabbing the rent payments from the box and posted them. Soon after Jessica arrived and asked if she needed to do anything for the new move ins. I replied “yes can you go see if the units are ready for them to move in. I have all of the documents and forms ready for them already”. She happily replied and left to go and do what I asked of her.
An hour after open Olivia had arrived at work, and no sooner than she arrived she came to my office stating I had someone in the front who wanted to speak with me. I came out to see the girl that was banging my door down the other day and my eyes grew wide at the sight of her. I introduced myself and vice versa then she asked me to talk in my office. I agreed and led the way, after we were there I shut the door and offered her a seat.
“What can I do for you Miss”, is all I got out before she rudely cut me off. “Soon to be Mrs. Knight get it correct before assuming. Now I want you to listen to me and listen to me clearly okay. I’m only going to say this once before I get physical. I want you, no need you to stay away from Alexander. We will be married soon and there is no room for a mistress like you to be involved in the marriage. So if you don’t want to be known as a home wrecker which I could easily do and ruin your reputation and get your fired. I suggest you end things, or things will not look to pretty for you” she said.
I was shocked and taken aback for a moment before I said “are you threatening me”. No this is not a threat, it’s a promise and just because you move don’t think I won’t find you” she said. Then she got up and came around to where I was and whispered “this is just a taste of what I have, keep this relationship going and things will not end well for you here” and she tossed me an envelope and left.
Really confused as to what was in the envelope I got up and closed my office door before proceeding to open the envelope. When I did I was shocked at what I saw. There were multiple photos in there of me and Alex. Some of us out holding hands laughing, kissing and having a good time. Other photos were more intimate photos of us in the act of having s*x. Behind all of the photos there were the contracts that we signed. I was befuddled when I saw the contracts, thinking how did she get access to these she shouldn’t have access.
Fuming mad I called Alex and told him we had to meet right away and left the office going to lunch. He told me to meet him at a cafe down the street, but I declined and said I wanted to meet him at his office instead.
Alex POV
Happy to see Zaria calling I quickly answered “hello my love, what’s going on”. “Can we meet now please it’s urgent” she said sounding angry. “Sure let’s me at Cafe bistro down the street” I said. “No can we meet at your office I’ll be there in 20 minutes.” “Okay I’m on the very top floor and I’ll let the front desk know you’re coming” I told her. Unsure of what has transpired and her anger towards me, but nonetheless I couldn’t wait to see her.
She arrived and I was notified that she was here so I went out to meet her. “Zaria, hi let’s go to my office” I said as I walked up to her and shook her hand and led her to my office. We had to enter through my assistant office to get to mine, but I currently did not have an assistant at the moment so the office was empty. We arrived in my office and I asked her to have a seat while going to have a seat myself. As I sat down I pushed a button to lock the doors and frost the windows up. I then let my receptionist know I was in a meeting.
“What’s wrong and why did we have to meet right away” I asked her. What she said next crushed me to the core. “I can’t do this contract/mistress thing”. “What are you talking about we’ve already had this discussion” I said. She went in her purse pulled out an envelope and handed it to me. What I saw next had me fuming. “Where did you get this” I said. “It doesn’t matter where I got it from, just know that I received it and was promised to be exposed for being a home wrecker. Not only did those pictures come in there the contracts was in there as well” she said and held the contracts up for me to see.
Really confused as to how this happened I tried to reason with her but couldn’t. “Alex this has been the most wonderful weekend I’ve ever had, but I can’t continue to do this and be harassed. If you’re still interested give me a call when your marriage is over” she said in a low croaking voice. As she got up to leave I got up with her and rushed to her side. I held her chin up and looked in her eyes and begged her not to do this. “Please don’t do this, I won’t be able to survive this marriage without you. You know I’m being forced to do this stick it out with me please”. With tear filled eyes “she said I can’t” and took the contracts and ripped them up and sat them on my desk. I gave her one last peck on the lips and let her go.
After she left I had my whole schedule cleared for the day and left to get to the bottom of this. I knew of only one person who could have steered her in this way and I was fuming. I called Jennifer and got no answer, so I called again and agin for a total of 5 times and she never answered. So I called Bob my tech guy to ask him to ping her phone and let me know her location. I also asked him to find out who this private investigator was she had as well and ended the call. I’ve been meaning to check it out but it slipped my mind lately. What the hell is this woman thinking throwing threats around. I couldn’t wait to find her and when I did I was definitely going to give her what she wanted after this.
