She is mine. Finally

She is mine. Finally
Chapter 25 ~ Dante's POV 

\=============

Entering my office, after I left Valerie smiled at me on her way to her office.

I wore a sudden grin of satisfaction on my face, as I closed my door and headed to sit on the couch towards my working table.

Taking a deep breath audibly, I placed my hands over my neck with solace all over me.

"Finally I had my way with her......., Again," I muttered to myself with a smirk on my face.

"To think she believes the "I love you" I used on her," I scoffed as I spoke.

"Little Miss Valerie doesn't know what's coming for her, Love," I sneered, "Who falls in love in this century, it's just a word we all like to misuse," I continued 

So I stood up, and walked to my working table, as I took my seat.

"I'd just continue with my games with the sweet Valerie and surely will I enjoy the fascinating sex, then I will make her learn not to mess with Dante Blaze," I uttered with my expression firm and determined.

And with that I began my work for the day, as I shifted my brain focus from thinking of my plans for Valerie to the work I had to do.

After several hours went by with the day, the telephone in my office rang, so I picked up the receiver and placed it on my left ear.

"Hello," I began, wearing a non-expressive face.

"Hi Dante, it's Valerie, I apologize for calling you during working hours, I just wanted to ask if there are any meetings we have scheduled for the rest of the day," Valerie said.

"No, there isn't, why do you ask, is there anything wrong," I inquired, with a worrisome look on my face.

"There is no problem, I am just asking but if asking was wrong I apologize," she said.

"Oh no, no, asking isn't wrong," I said to her.

"Okay then, I'll get back to work," She said, and so the call ended.

Placing back the receiver on the telephone, I was in awe by the strangeness of her call, but suddenly, it hit me like the wind as I began to understand what she was trying to do.

"Oh!....," I interjected.

"I see what she is trying to do, wanting to get cozy wouldn't reject her offer if she had come out open but no issues better luck next time on my path," I said to myself as I returned to work, clicking the buttons on my laptop.

Close to four hours after the weird call from Valerie, working hours came to an end, and this prompted me to pack up for the day as it was getting dark.

Finally done with it, within some minutes, I locked my office and handed the keys to Ruth as I saw her on my way out also heading home.

"Be early to work tomorrow," I said to her, handing her the keys.

"Of course I will sir," She responded, collecting it from me and so she walked away from me and headed to the entrance.

Then I turned as I made my way to the garage where I parked my car.

Reaching there, suddenly I heard my phone chiming, "Who could that be," I said to myself, pulling out my phone from my trouser pocket.

And so I discovered it was Valerie, "Valerie, is she okay?" I said to myself as I was taken aback by my words of care towards her.

"Why do I care about her suddenly," I uttered, but still I clicked on the answer button widget on my phone screen and placed the phone on my left ear.

"Hi, Valerie, what's up," I said to her, starting the phone conversation.

And so I continued my steps towards my car.

"I-I-I," She starmmed, with the echoes of heavy breath sounding out from the phone.

"Valerie, what happened where are you," I suddenly raised my voice, as I sat in my car I finally reached there consumed with worry.

"I-I-I have been hit by a car," She cried out through the phone.

"Calm down Val, breathe, where exactly are you," I said to her, as I tried a calming persuasion with her.

"I....", she said, breathing heavily.

"I am at the hospital, St Augustine Hospital at Kelly's street, I'm inside as the people close by are surrounding me to help me in," she continued.

"Alright, please I want you to calm down and relax, I'll be there in a jiffy," I said to her, as I ended the call, I started my car at that moment and drove off to the given location.

After some minutes into the drive, I finally reached there. Immediately I got out of his car and ran like a madman into the hospital.

Entering I looked around, hoping to see Valerie somewhere but I didn't then my eyes shifted to the nurse at the counter.

"Good day, Miss Please I am looking for a patient who they just brought in she had an accident close by," I said to the nurse.

"I see, and who are you to her?" The nurse inquired.

"I'm-Im, I'm her husband," I blotted out, without thinking about it twice.

"Very well, she is ward 153," the nurse said believing my words.

"Thank you miss, thank you," I appreciate feigning relief on my face.

So I left the counter as I walked away from the nurse.

With so much effort, I finally found the ward to, which Valerie was admitted.

Nearing closer to the door, I slowly but firmly pushed the door open and I saw her lying there.

Entering the room and proceeding into it further, she gently opened her eyes.

"Hey," She said in a tired tone.

"Hey, how are you feeling?" I asked her as I pulled out the chair close to her bed and had my seat.

"Terrible," She responded with a slight laugh erupting from her.

"I know, you should have allowed me to take you home, does your mom know," I uttered to her.

"Oh hell no, please don't say a word to my mom, plus I didn't want to bother you with my journeying home," she replied.

"Yeah, yeah, miss Valerie Skye, the loner," I teased.

Then suddenly, she slowly lifted her hands and reached for my head, I was confused about what she intended to do but I said nothing not to jinx her Intentions getting fulfilled.

"Do you know something Dante," she began.

"No, I don't tell me," I encouraged her to feel free.

"I think I love you," she confessed to me.

I would be sincere with y'all, I was shocked at this, She loves me, Valerie Skye, the high and mighty Valerie Skye, well I am glad I am witnessing this but it's all good, still making my intentions towards her get easy.

Scoffed, as I replied, "You love me?" 

"Yes I love you, not because of the wonderful sex we always have but because you are one of the selfless people I know and you cracked the wall I built open after my painful breakup with my ex, I just felt right with you, everything does," She said to me.

Not wanting to misuse this golden opportunity I got, I responded to her, "I love you too, just like I said to you last night, and I meant every word I said,"

"So..... What does this make us?" she asked me.

"Well nothing but a couple," I replied to her as a sudden giggle wore on both our faces.

Then she tried coming close to me for a kiss, but the pain in her waist wasn't responding to her movements.

So I moved close to her and gave her the kiss she wanted, trust me the kiss was a long one that led to a very hot sex right on the hospital bed she was lying on.

I believe this sealed the start of something new for her but for me, it's more like an Amen to her emotional ruination.

"Finally, I have Valerie Skye, right in my arms which is exactly where I want her to be when she falters so hard,"

And so, after the consummation of the start of our fresh relationship, we both ended the day lying with no clothes underneath the bed cover.
