Xavier's POV
I heard that Miss Mane has officially landed in New York city and I couldn't be more happy about it. From what I heard from the driver, she arrived on time and she hasn't left the apartment since last night. This morning he called me and told me that she was going into the office, to start a new day as a new Editor in Chief of Writer Bean.
The reason I hired Miss Mane a driver, is the fact that I want know everything I can about her. The research I have on her doesn't tell me much about what I need to know. Which is why it is important to me that I have someone on the inside looking out for my best interest.
Miss Mane is new to this but I can see that she is a very smart and an intelligent woman. I know for a fact that a time will come when she will learn the truth and when that happens, I would rather have something solid to hold on to. Since I can't find anything on her right now, I think its best that I go to her past, I am sure that I can find something to keep her in check with.
Even though Writer Bean is in the same building as King Enterprise, I doubt if we would ever bump into each other. I didn't tell her that we would be working in the same building because I didn't want to make her nervous. I am hoping that her first day will go well. At the moment, I have made sure that the handover was smooth.
Right now she has information about everything she will need in order to take on this role. Which is why I want to schedule a meeting with her. I need her to know that my door is always open for her and that I don't mind opening other things for her as well.
The thought of her being in the same building as I am was rather exciting. I know that she is now my employee and that there is a line I can't cross but I can't help how I feel. I thought that being her boss would be motivation enough to switch off whatever it is that I am feeling.
When we had dinner at her apartment the other day, we shared a moment and had I not hesitated, I probably would have kissed her. Seeing her at the hotel blew my mind, she was beautiful and fiesty, very outspoken and confident, I like that about her.
That doesn't mean that I don't see her beauty, see how she gets a little dimple when she smiles or how she closes her mouth at the taste of something good. I don't remember much about Stacey but Hope, I remember everything. We have met twice and already I feel like I have known her for a long time.
In the midst of all the problems I am facing right now, thinking about her calms me down somehow, I haven't felt like that since Annette. Annette was the only woman I allowed myself to love, she was the love of my life and my one true love. I say that because before she came along, I was the hit it and quit it type. The kind who never went beyond a one night stand.
Then she came along, the woman who drove the whole university insane. You see Annette was a gem, a Virgin and everyone wanted to be with her. A law student with a promising future, always fighting for what's right, the voice of the voiceless, she came into my life and changed me. I knew that I was in competition with a lot of guys, that is why I had to be straight with her.
I dropped all my play boy ways and commited myself to her fully. I never even looked at other women, why would I when I had the one amazing woman, the woman that other women wished to be. It is crazy because I always thought that she was the one, from the first day I saw her, I knew I wanted her.
I will say that she didn't make it any easy for me. A guy like me had a reputation, one she hated. She made me work for her attention, made me work for her affection and when she was finally mine, I appreciated what I had and didn't want to lose her. That is why I even asked her to marry me.
I sometimes wonder if I was the cause of what happened because she changed right after I proposed to her. I found it strange considering that she was excited about the engagement, I thought she wanted it until one day, I walked into the bathroom and saw a sight I would never forget, needless to say that I haven't taken a bath since then, I am a shower guy now.
Annette could have spoken to me and told me if something was wrong, instead she didn't love me enough to trust me with her thoughts, to trust me with her life. You see Annette took the cowards way out and ended her life. Though it hurt to lose her, I was more hurt that she chose to die, that she chose to leave me.
When someone dies because of natural causes it hurts, but then again it gives you some sort of comfort knowing that they died because it was time, she took her own life, she made the decision to kill herself and didn't even bother to give me an explanation, she never considered my feelings and what she was doing to me, how her death would affect me. Seven years she has been gone and even now I don't know why she did what she did.
Her family did not make things any easier for me. They blamed me for her death saying that I drove her to it. I didn't understand why they would think like that when all that I did was love their daughter. They say love conquers all, I had to learn the hard way that it was not true, love does not conquer all, if it did, Anne would still be here with me.
It took me months to accept that she was gone, that I would never see her again. I couldn't eat, I couldn't sleep, all that I did was drink, party and go to bed with anyone who would smile at me. I didn't care because there is no love in my heart, Anne took it with her and I will never get it back.
I sealed my fate a long time ago, I am not like Henry. I will never fall in love or get married, nor will I ever have children. My family legacy ends with me, that is why I need to make sure that my name is sealed in concrete, that the coming generation knows that the King's were here. I can't do that if I fall in love and get my heart broken again.
Now here comes Hope, never have I wanted to f**k someone as much as I want her. I wonder how it would feel to have her bound and helpless, how it would feel to f**k her while she was suspended in the air, I wonder how it would feel to have my whip colour her lovely backside and finally, I wonder how it would feel to bury myself deep inside her.
"Mr King?" My PA called out to me.
She snapped out of my day dreaming.I was lost in my thoughts thinking about Hope and all the things I wanted to do to her, I didn't even see my PA making her way into my office.
"Yes?" I said to her and cleared my throat. I hope that whatever she wants doesn't need me to stand up because right now, I have a huge problem in my pants, this might be the only time I regret not wearing any underwear.
"Em... Sir there is a woman in the front desk, she won't leave!" she said to me.
"Does she have an appointment?" I asked her.
"No sir but she insists that you will see her, should I let her in?" She asked me.
"How long do I have until my next meeting?" I asked her.
" You have to leave in twenty minutes sir," She said.
"Fine, send her in and tell her that I have five minutes," I said to her.
"Okay Mr King, I will send her in." She said and walked out. I stood and walked to the window, I put my hands in my pocket and took a deep breathe. I have no idea who is here to see me but whoever she is better be here for a real reason, my time is money and I don't have time for nonsense right now.
I heard footsteps and I turned around.
"Hey lover boy! missed me?" Bethany said with a huge smile on her face.
Bethany is litterally the closet thing I will have to a girlfriend. We are not really dating but we sure love to f**k. Beth and I have an understanding, she knows that I am not looking for a relationship and she is completely fine with that. She is a model and a she is always busy, she too doesn't have time for a relationship, whenever she is in the city, we hook up from time to time.
She was wearing a coat, she closed the door. She unbuttoned her coat and dropped it on the floor, underneath it, she is wearing a leather corset, a pair on black thong and fishnet stockings, my eyes went down to her black patent leather nine inch stiletto heels. My c**k twitched. I walked my desk, I took the remote and the blinds on the window came down, after that, I took the receiver, my PA picked it up on the other end.
" Yes Mr King?" She said.
"Cancel my twelve o'clock," I said and hung up the phone.
"All that for me?" Bethany said with a naughty smile and batted her eyelashes at me, she knows what that does to me.
"On your knees!" I commanded and she dropped to the floor.
"Come to me, make me remember why I miss your wet cunt!" I said to her.
Like a good little girl that she was, she crawled to where I was standing.
"Permission to proceed?" She asked looking into my eyes, she was hungry for me. I could see it in her eyes.
"Yes, you may..." I said to her.
I leaned my back on the wall as she untied my belt and held my c**k in her hand, she wetted her lips and opened her mouth wide, she put it in her mouth, just the tip as her younger swirled around, I closed my eyes, suddenly I saw Hope's face, I opened my eyes and saw Bethany holding me with both hands sucking the life out of me, I closed my eyes and again I saw Hope, I could also feel myself getting harder. I quickly opened my eyes.
"Stop! On the desk, ass in the air!" I commanded and she did as she was told, I opened the first drawer and took out a condom, I slipped it on and spanked her a**.
I slid her thong to the side and I thrusted into her roughly. I am glad that she was already wet or she would have been bruised, not that she would have minded, she moaned like she liked it, in my mind, I felt it was Hope. I couldn't stop myself, I went in deep and hard, she held on tight to the desk.
"Oh F**K! That's deep!" She said as I pounded her.
"Take this d**k, you know you want it, that is why you are so wet," I said and pounded her harder.
"Yes Daddy!" She said as she moaned.
"Your little wet cunt has been thinking about this d**k all week wasn't it?" I said and pounded harder, she was getting wetter and wetter.
" Yes Daddy!" She said.
"What do you want?" I said to her, I was breathing heavily, I was close.
"I want to c*m daddy, make me c*m! Yes, Yes, Yes, Oh God you are so deep!" She said and moaned.
"Mr King I... Jesus!" I heard a voice coming from behind me, I quickly turned around only to see Hope turning back in a hurry. I pulled out uprubtly. The last thing I want is for her to see me f** someone else on my work desk, unless if that someone was her. The whole time I was f**ing Beth, she was the only thing on my mind.
"Hey, I was about to come!" Bethany said, she was so caught up in what we were doing that she didn't even realise that someone just walked in on us, not just anyone but Hope. I looked at the clock on the wall while I pulled my pants up, it was lunch time.
This would explain why Miss Mane was able to get in here without me knowing, it also means that I should have made sure that the door is closed. My PA knows how I operate, there has been women in Bethany's position right now, she knows better than to disturb me.
"Get dressed!" I said to Bethany.
"What? But we are not even done yet!" She said to me.
"I know, we will finish this some other time," I said to her.
"Fine, I guess we can do this later, dinner?" She said.
"Not tonight, I will send a car to get you at your apartment tomorrow evening," I said to her.
"Oh, my lease expired, I am at a hotel, actually I am at one of your hotels!" She said to me.
"How long are you going to be around for?" I asked her.
"A couple of months at least," She said as she walked to get her coat on the floor.
"You can't stay at a hotel that long, look you can use one of my apartments in fifth avenue," I said and went to the second drawer, I pulled out a set of keys and gave it to her.
" You don't have to do this, I will be fine at a hotel!" She said.
"I insist, here... The apartment is fully furnished, you can move in right away. " I said to her.
"Thanks..." She said and took the keys.
Bethany and I are not in a relationship but there is a part of me that cares for her, besides that, she is a great f**k, I like that about her, she is just like me, she likes to explore and experiment with s*x, I am like that too. Things with her are never boring.
She took her things and left. I don't know why Miss Mane was in my office but I am sure as hell going to find out. The publishing house is on the floor beneath mine, I used the private lift in my office. The floor was busy, even though it was lunchtime, there was a lot of people in their office's getting work done. I paid no attention as I made my way to Hope's office. Her PA was at the front desk having a salad.
"Mr King!" He said with a surprised face when he saw me.
" Is Miss Mane in? I want to talk to her," I said.
"No sir she just left," he said.
"Which restaurant did she go to?" I asked her.
"No restaurant sir, she went home and said she will work from there," He said to me.
"Oh, I see!, as you were!" I said and left for my office.
