Chapter 50

ARIA

"Are you okay?"

"Y--yes, I am," I said, still looking confused, with the devil on one of my shoulders, laughing

at me loudly.

"Are you sure?" he insisted but I just nodded slowly, taking my eyes away from him.

"Look, I understand that you might be overwhelmed by whatever had taken place today, but I

can assure you that, as long as I am here with you, nothing will happen to you."

"Yeah, you sure are right."

My own words were falling on me, and I just couldn't help but feel stupid and what a fantasy I had just some moments ago.

"I will be nearby, you can make yourself comfortable, and call on me if you desire anything."

I was trying my best to act tough, but I felt dumb. How could I be fantasizing about someone

I barely know. A man who might not even be into me, and just want to have a fling and

disappear.

Aria, you need to have a hold of yourself and your emotions, before you finally land yourself

in trouble.

"You know that is not happening right? There is no need to lie to yourself." The devil on one

shoulder, says with a glass of red wine, giggling while the angel tells me,

"Remember why you are here Aria, you can pull through this temptation."

I crawled into my bed after Leo had left for the second time, and I double-checked that the

door to my room was closed, I laid back, wondering how the hell all of that was real when

Elias was not even there.

I located my clit with the help of my right hand, and thinking about Elias's hardness, I began

rubbing my clit in circles.

My fingers were already moving faster than I was breathing and in less than some minutes, I

was covered by the warm fluid that gushed out of my vagina, leaving my body still at the

the pleasure I had self-given.

"This felt so good than usual," I said, rolling to the side, and closing my eyes to sleep, with

the thought of having Elias for real by me someday. Until then, self-satisfaction is all I know

how to do, and I can use that to console myself on still having my cherry intact at my age.

The morning was bright, and I was wearing a big smile on my face. Yes, it's going to be a

good day, and I have to give my best. I was going to start oh day at one of my biggest

companies, and I needed to dress up quickly so that, Job could drop me off before going to

work.

It's been pure blessings coming my way, and I couldn't be any happier. Nathan had left the

previous day to see Grandma, and just as I had anticipated, my foster parents had shown up

at her house and threatened the hell of Grandma Mary.

Like the fuck, they had tried to darken my face before the old lady, who didn't buy all their

accusations, and when they saw that she wasn't bending to their wishes, they decided to

give her threats.

I remember Nathan, leaving here in an uncontrollable anger, and I had to beg him to take me

along, which he denied and said Grandma Mary had warned him that I would react like that if I

came to find out about the situation.

For once in my life, I have people who love me, who fucking love me genuinely. I breathe in

then dash into the bathroom, as soon as my eyes catch sight of the standing clock on my

stand beside my bed.

"Aria, you are going to be late for work." Kib's voice calls out and I answer,

"I will be out in a minute."

I shouted from my room and put on the dress I had carefully pressed on me. Fixed my hair and

with a little clip, I held it on one side. I have never been a make-up girl, so I put on some lip

gloss, slid into my little heels, and there, I was looking perfect.

My trousers, stocked with my white blouse, give me the pretty and cheerful girl that I am.

And without any hesitation, I spray the fragrance I had kept jealously as a gift I got from the

store where Job took me.

"Here am I," I muttered appearing with my eyes glimpsing at the table that Job had set.

"Eat up quickly, if not you will be fired before you even start."

"Yes, big brother."

The shock in both our eyes, made me gulp then I turned to face the plat before me, while I

lower myself on the chair.

"I am sorry, I didn't mean that."

Shit, what the fuck is wrong with you girl? You have been misbehaving pretty much these

days. I felt my grip tightening in my lap but Job's hand on my head, brought me back to

reality.

"You don't have to feel like you killed someone Aria." He said, padding my head before

continuing, "I have no issues being your big brother, and keeping you safe."

My eyes got watery from the feeling I was having, and I swear, crying would be so sweet with

such words, but I could ruin everything.

"Thanks, Job."

"I love the big brother more."

He's such a tease. We both laughed and then I ate what he had made and it was delicious.

Rushing over my food, I was done within minutes, telling him that we could exit for work.

"I like your excitement," Job says, as he picks up his car keys.

"I like it more myself."

We were at the Parking lot in just a few minutes, and the smile on my face knew no bounds.

"Here we are," Job said, seizing me out of my fairytale, and when I looked up, I said, "Wow."

"I bet you can't contain your satisfaction."

"Not at all."

"Well, you should have a fun first day Aria, I will have to get going."

"Thank you Job," I muttered, taking off my seat belt, and was about to step out when he

stopped me.

"I will come pick you up after work, and if I can't make it, I will ask my girlfriend to take you

back home, if Nathan can't make it as well."

I nod feeling all excited. Thanking Job, I stepped out of the car, wishing him a lovely day, and

the smile on my face was so huge.

Straightening myself, I walk to the entrance, showing my ID card to the security standing by

the portal and after some checks, I was left inside the hallway.

My eyes couldn't stay in one place and while I was still looking, a voice called out to me,

"Excuse me, Lady, how may I help you?"

I turned around, fuck, I must have been looking lost like some idiot.

"I am here for the job opening as a front desk staff."

"Can I know your name please?"

"Aria," I take a long deep breath, then exhaling, "Aria Wales."

She types so fast on the desktop before her, lifts her head with a charming smile, and says,

"Take the elevator to the seventh floor, and there Miss Lina Cross will receive you."

She hands me a badge that looks like an access card before I can even say thank you.

Taking my leave, I walked to the lobby and into the elevator, getting ready to press only

floor level, when I heard someone shout from outside,

"Hold the elevator door please."

I quickly did the deep and sexy voice had said, and still standing there, I wondered why on

earth that voice had sounded so familiar.

"It could be from the stress you are feeling right now Aria," I said, but everything shattered

when the one behind that voice showed up and to my greatest shock same as the one I

could see on his face when his eyes met mine, I heard,

"Aria?"
