not meant to be

Edna I stared at the clock hanging on the wall for the nth Time tonight. it was already 12.30am and damian was not here yet, today was Friday and he always sneaks into my house every Friday night to spend some time with me. the thought of Damian sneaking around just to see me brought a smile to my face. he is not just any man he was Damian Marcello a billionaire and the ceo of one of the biggest companies around the world and of course my brother's biggest rival. it was strange, being in love with your brothers biggest enemy but I couldn't help it . I can't even remember when or how we fell in love, one day he mistakenly bumped into me at an event and spilled wine all over my clothes, and a week later we where already having dinner and now six months later we are here heads over hills in love with each other and sneaking around. I stared at the clock again, it was already 12:50 well I guess he was not going to come tonight, he would usually come here by 9:pm and stayed with me till 3 am. I tried not to feel bad, but I couldn't help it for some reasons I think damian has been trying to distance himself from me since the last time he visited. we had s*x for the first time last week Friday, it was the Best experience for me or maybe not for him, ever since that night I noticed a change in his attitude, we went from talking at least two times a day to not talking at all for Three days, even when I went to visit him in his office to give him lunch the receptionist didn't let me meet him according to her he was "very busy". there's a fear at the back of my mind I was not ready to accept. I knew damian loved me a lot but it still was not enough to get the idea that he had used me out if my Head. what if he never loved me? after all I was his enemies sister . I really needed to get this whole stuff out of my head. damian loved me and I know it, who in the world doubts a person's love simply because they couldn't make out Time to see them? I guess it was only me . I turned off the bedside lamp beside me and turned around to sleep, five minutes later I heard a light knock on my window. I quickly on the lamp beside me and looked towards the direction of My window. it was him, of course it had to be damian he was the only person that comes to my room through the window and not the door. I got down from my bed and rushed to open the windows for him and he came inside and pulled me in for a hug. I didn't know how much I missed him until this very moment that I was in his arms. " I missed you so much" I said as I tried to inhale his cologne . "I missed you more baby, am so sorry I had a lot of work to do this week" he apologized. "it fine I understand " I said as I nodded my Head at him, but he was no longer looking at my face his eyes was roaming around my body with a little smirk on his face as if he could eat me up this very moment. I also started looking at my self and that is when I noticed it. I was only wearing a lingerie. I couldn't help but blush, well I had a lot planned for tonight . " if I knew you had other plans for tonight I'd would have cancelled all my meetings and run down here" he said as he wrapped his arms around me and brought me closer to him. " I didn't have any plans for tonight damian" I said as I put my hands on his neck and brought his face closer so I could place a peck on his lips. have been dying to do this since he came in here. but damian being himself took my little innocent Peck to the next level and a few minutes later we where on my bed with him on top of me moaning and groaning. I felt his hands on my left boobs massaging me there and I let out a loud moan. I could feel my excitement growing in anticipation of what was to come next. and then he stopped and lied down next to me while drawing me closer to himself so my head could be on his chest. it felt like he was distancing himself from me again just like when we started dating. I could not count how many times this same scenario has happened . everytime I thought we where going to have s*x and after some time he suddenly stops as if he changed his mind or he had doubts, I used to think it was because I was still a virgin. but I thought that was going to change since we already did it a week ago but it seems not or maybe he was stressed out. "are you okay damian" I asked him. " am fine it just some company issues and stuffs" he replied "do you want to talk about it" I said as I try to adjust my head on his chest. " do you want to hear it" he asked and I nodded my Head. " the company has been losing a lot of money and deals lately, and I think it has something to do with your brother" he said with a sigh. ok that was not what I was expecting to hear . "why do you think my brother is involved in that " I asked. "every single deal we've lost goes directly to your families company, and I recently found out that he is using the same ideas we where supposed to be using on the projects. I think he has someone feeding him information about all our deals" he said. I don't really know how to take this news, I don't really think my brother would resolve to cunny way to get a deal but then he was a business man and I really don't know how this things work. "damian am really sorry about that I....." he didn't let me finish before he placed his hands over my lips to shut me up. " let's not talk about your brother, I know how much you love him and I wouldn't want you to be in an uncomfortable situation because of me, I'd handle the company issues" he said and I nodded my Head at him. i really do not think chris would do that though, he had to be mistaken. my brother was all about principles he'd never do anything to bend those principles and cheating a person was out of the book for him. "don't you think we should tell your family about us, maybe your mom" I heard him say and I sprang up from his chest immediately. " what... why... how would you even suggest such a thing, you already know my situation with my brother right, he is going to kill me" I said as I tried to control myself from stuttering which only happens when am nervous. "edna you are twenty-three years, you are old enough to make decisions for yourself, christopher can go and f**k himself, besides am really not comfortable with always sneaking into his house like a coward every time". " do you know what might happen if the paparazzi ever see me climbing up your window like a thief. and your brother, I really don't want to think about it but I can assure you that you'd be getting the body of either one of us". I understand what he was saying, I know how hard it was for him to always sneak around with me when he could have any woman in the world if he wanted. but I could not risk letting christopher find out about my little escapades with his rival, I am sure he'd definitely kill me . I might be twenty-three but Chris always treats me like a child. I have never gotten the opportunity to go to school like other children, for some reason Chris and mom think it not safe out there for me. all my life the only thing i have ever known was this house, my school, games and even friends everything happens inside of this house . they never let me leave on my own until last year. that was when I could get a little bit of freedom and even at that I was not allowed to work or do anything for my self. Chris believe i just have to get married to someone who would take care of my shares in the company, which he would arrange for me off course. if he ever finds out am with Damian he'd definitely lock me up in this house again till he married me off to who ever he wishes to. "damian we can't let my family know about us for now" I said "why not, are you that scared of christopher"he asked me,and I shook my head. "it not about being scared of him, I just don't want any issues now that am convincing him to let me do my masters programs abroad, if he ever gets to find out about us then I'd be done for,I'd never get the freedom I want from this house" I explained to him and he nodded his Head. we spent the rest of the night talking about random things till it was 2 am when he decides to leave because he still had a lot of work that was unattended to . I stood by my window as I watch pa sam our chief security guard open the gate for him. he was the only one who knew about this but still didn't say a thing to mum or christopher. he said it was because he knew how boring my childhood was and he was willing to help me, and I was grateful for having him here . I drew the curtains for my window and went back to bed to catch a little bit of sleep. I was very happy tonight and I really wanted it to be like this.
