I felt his hands on my back trailing down towards my ass then he pulled me away from him. Our eyes were still locked on each other at that moment I saw his eyes sparkle like stars lost in the Galaxy. I tried to look away only to feel his soft minty voice in my neck.
"Just this once I would like you to sleep in my room after all we are still husband and wife baby?"
"Raphael I don't think that it will be a good idea at all, I think I should get going!"
"So you would rather spend a night in a cold bed than with me?" He asked me with dark eyes.
"I slept alone for four years in a cold bed and one night more won't hurt me, now if you'll excuse me I have to go with immediate effect as requested!"I said turning around to walk down the stairs only to stop once he called my name with a frightening tone.
I stopped in my tracks waiting for his words to come out only he did the opposite he grabbed me from behind so hard that I had to gasp for air. He lifted me sitting me down on the stairs handrail holding me tight in his arms. It felt like there was no breath inside my lungs as if I was busy drowning. I looked him straight in his eyes only to find him smirking at me. Raphael was going to kill me tonight, yet he could have done it differently than this.
" You're dead to me and I don't want anything to do with you as of this moment. You're a mess of a person and you were never part of my destiny, but let me tell you something that you will walk out of my house with nothing except the things you walked in here with! You will only be able to see Alexa once you have a f*****g job that pays everything! Now get the f**k out of my house you low-life b***h!!" he said then took a step back lifting me of then placed me on the stairs.
Raphael's p.o.v
I kept my eyes on her while she disappeared in front of my eyes. I stood there once she was gone I left to go to my study for some work to be done. Once I got there I poured myself a whiskey then let it down with a burning sensation in my throat. s**t! I recall the time she was just a little chicken afraid of the world and to stand up for herself only to see what she had become now. My father was right she was worse than her w***e of a sister. I sat down while staring into the fire of my fireplace. She made me feel alive, but that almost cost me my daughter for f**k sake! She will never see my daughter! I must have fallen asleep on the couch when I woke up only to find my father looking at me. His eyes were cold and fearless. He seemed angry at something maybe a deal that went south again.
"How late is it?"
"Time to teach you a lesson son!" He said then stood up and walked out by the door. He left me speechless yet I wanted to know what he meant by that. One week has passed with no sight of Emily. After I heard nothing of Emily I knew that she gave up on my daughter! I was running a little late this morning as my assistant messed up my f*****g schedule once again. I f*****g fired her as I do not like to repeat my self and that is a fact that everyone knew. I headed into the office when I saw my father with one of the investors. He looked happy, but my eyes spotted a woman behind them with beautiful long legs and a man who had the most beautiful hair They were headed straight towards me with a loud laugh the lady in the nice black dress walked into me. There was something about her smell that made me go crazy!! s**t, I wanted to take her here and know.
"Son you just in time to meet one of our new managers from the construction site!"I remembered that my father said that he was giving this job to someone else who is more talented and educated yet I never imagined it would be my nephew Lukas Gray.
" Good Day, Raphael!"
"Emily?"
Her eyes looked up into mine and that is when I lost my words and my total human being. I felt lost in those perfect eyes of hers
Emily's p.o.v
His eyes were shocked and full of rage. I guess he was not ready to see me again this fast. I wonder if his father mentioned that I will be working for Lukas his nephew.
"Father a word!" I said and showed him to my office while Emily left with the Lukas down the hall smiling.
"Cut the bullshit old man! What the f**k is she doing here?"
"Lukas gave her a job since your keeping Alexa from her as she has no income and house at all! Now if you'll excuse me I have a meeting to attend with the British investors!"
"Father you're going to regret this!"
"No my son I believe that you will, now if you will excuse me I have to make a deal with the last one since I'll be retiring soon!"
He left my office with one big fat f*****g smile like nothing has happened over these past years. I loved my father but sometimes he could have been over the top with his actions. My blood was boiling where I was standing now. I rather watch her work in a diner than here between a bunch of investors! and with a bunch of Investors, I met f*****g Lukas!! Why am I feeling this way with her? I should be happy that she left yet I feel protective over her? Why?
I called my assistant in to ask if she can find out what Emily's day is looking like. She nodded and left my office with speed as she knew that this was very important. I sat down on my chair looking at the cameras only to find Emily hugging Lukas. I felt how anger took over me once again. She is mine and mine only! s**t, I needed to get her out of my head and as soon as possible!!
Emily p.o v
After the meeting, I greeted Lukas then headed out the door only to find a handsome man waiting for me.He showed me towards the car then we headed to the coast as I had an appointment for a house. After I left the mansion I knew that I will need a place to stay and once I saw this house I fell in love with it. The walls were brown with white old windows looking out on the see. The wind was so refreshing and made me forget my troubles. The real estate lady showed me the whole house with its beautiful features.
"Mrs.."
"Miss Duke please if you don't mind!"
"Of course, please advise if this house came close enough to your dream house as I have a few more if you would like to see more?"
"That won't is necessary, I think I have found my dream home right here!" I said with a bright smile. I had to move on without him starting from today. I felt my phone buzz so I took it out only to find a message from him.
"You gave me a terrible fright today at work guess you missed me!"
"Bastard!" I sent back then turned around only to find him behind me. Wait where did the lady go she was just here a second ago!
"Why don't you say that to my face sweetheart?"
He was dressed in his black jeans with a white t-shirt showing off all of his muscles standing out. His tattoos were more visible than before. s**t, I don't think that I have ever seen him like this not even when we were married. He threw me a smirk then shoved his hands in his back pockets. What the actual f**k was happening! He came closer to me with the speed that I didn't even think he had. He was wearing a Rolex watch that I had bought him once in France.He grabbed me behind my neck pulling me into him.
"How about you say that again just this time I ,want you to look into my eyes!"as he brushed his lips on mine.
