Love, Lies and Billionaires

“Okay, you both need to stop stalking me, alright?” Maren said as her shoulders relaxed a little from the shock she had just felt.

She walked over to her table and took out some papers from the drawer, which she spread out on the table.

“Besides, it’s the weekend. What the fuck are you doing around here?” she asked Kendrick, who just stood at a corner of her office with his arms folded while he watched her.

“Are you going to say something? Or are you just here to creep me out and leave” she said as she raised her head from the papers with the one she’d been searching for.

He smirked and finally moved away from the wall, his arms still folded. Before Maren could look up, he was already at the table and so close to her that she made outlines of his tattoos with her eyes.

“Well first if all, like you guessed, I know you’ve been busy aside work, and I knew you’d be here to get something”

“That’s weirdly specific, but go on,” she said, trying to keep her eyes on him to avoid showing the fact that his entire presence was intimidating.

She held her breath as she thought she would choke the more she inhaled his cologne.

“What are you really angry about? If at all you are”Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

Maren was taken aback and couldn’t help but raise a brow. “If at all I am?” She repeated, the intimidated feeling suddenly washing away. “I’m hurt, Kendrick. I’m hurt that you kept such vital details away from me.”

“I mean, I could have expected it from Alexander, but not from you. You’re the older one, you should have some balls” she spat and began walking away, instead she was pulled back by a heavy arm around her waist.

The action was so swift it startled her a bit and she couldn’t help but sense the seriousness in his eyes.

“I’m not Alexander. You can’t walk away from me just like that,” he said in a menacingly authoritative tone, which Maren could remember from the first day they’d met in the conference room.

As much as Maren felt a little shaken, she kept her cool and remained where he kept her; close to his chest, and just stared at him, looking for a hint of anger on his face.

“You can ignore him, but you can’t ignore me, and both of us know that”

“So what now? You want to explain yourself?” Maren asked, raising a confident brow. He looked down at her for sometime before raising his eyes to look away in the distance.

“Okay, I know it’s sound really wrong to keep away such an information from you but-

“Care to share the exact reason I was kept in the dark?” She interrupted before she could stop herself.

Kendrick was quiet for a moment before looking back down at her. “I actually don’t know”

Maren shook her head slightly and rolled her eyes. She wasn’t buying that shit.

“Actually, I just felt that you wouldn’t want to be with me anymore,” he quickly added, and Maren’s expression softened a little.

“Why would you think that?”

Kendrick raised an obvious brow.

“I really don’t think what Alexander put me through should affect my perspective about you. Especially now that I’ve gotten to know you,” she said calmly.

“Oh, really?”

“Yeah, don’t you think?” She asked, raising a confused brow at the way his gaze on her intensified.

“I don’t know, I just felt-” he leaned forward slowly and gently, his lips claiming hers, which she didn’t resist.

Slowly, they began till they really got into it and it intensified with each person feeling the other’s body, warmth, and of course, tongue.

She traced her hands, which she’d just noticed had been resting on his huge arms, which threatened to tear apart the round neck white top which he wore, up to his face and held it as he kissed her deeply.

Maren didn’t know how and why, but the longer he kissed her, the more it felt different. It felt like he was trying to pass a passionate but somewhat important message.

Like he was begging not to let go of him. So, being the person she was, she let go of her body and allowed him to do his thing, putting aside the fact that she was supposed to be mad at him and probably still be interrogating him.

She felt his hand slide down and grab her ass, giving it a slight squeeze, which made her run her fingers through his long hair.

The kiss got greedy quickly and Kendrick squeezed her ass a little tighter, making a moan escape her lungs. Then, just at the right moment, he reached for legs and placed her in a sitting position on her table.

They exchanged glances as if waiting for the other one to make the first move. Instead, their eyes made the conversation for them.

Maren let her eyes stray to his little man below and raised a teasing brow, coupled with a smile.

“Really?” he took a step closer to her.

In a flash, her fingers drew him closer with his belt as she hastened to undo its buckle.

“That’s it, unleash that whore you’ve caged up for so long,’ the red angel whispered in amusement in her head as Kendrick engaged her lips one more time. She ignored it. They were too judgemental anyway.

She let herself go and moaned loudly as she felt him reach inside of her. Thankfully, no one would hear them, as she was expected to be the only one in the building.

He fastened her legs around his waist and thrust repeatedly and greedily like some under fed dog and all she could do was hold on to him and feel his every move.

The more he went and the closer she came to her climax, the more her anger and paranoia about what she’d just found out faded away, as he seemed to be controlling every part of her.

Soon enough, they were both done and panting from the quickie they’d just had. Their bodies remained glued together, and Maren rested her head on his chest, listening to his heartbeat.

The entire room fell silent as both seemed to contemplate on what they’d done till Kendrick felt it was the right time to break the silence.

“I know this might not be the best time, and I know you will not believe me, but I’m a hundred percent sure of what I’m about to say.” He began, then paused. In case she had any objection but none came as Maren had no words nor expectations.

“I know Nathan’s mine”
