Chapter 32 Blue balls
“Papa.” I smiled.
“Something is different,” Papa said Accessing me, he always had to be dramatic.
“I didn’t sleep with him a thousand times Papa and if you must know; I intend on keeping my promise that I made to you.” I smiled and he playfully rolled his eyes at me. “I need to get ready Papa.”
“For.”
“Work.” I breathed out, he wanted to speak yet he didn’t, I hated that he didn’t want to tell me his opinion because he is worried that, one day he will be gone, very soon he will be gone and I never have to listen to him so I need to start now.
I didn’t say a word before heading into my room.
I have been avoiding Adrian from the moment I woke up. The car ride was even more awkward, he didn’t say a word to me bout the things that had happened, maybe he didn’t want to.
Every memory that rushed through my body, sent a different jolt of feelings through my body, it made me feel scared and worried. Adrian and I, have done something I have never thought of doing.
I wondered how he slept last night, with blue balls, I know I passed out easily because of the amount of alcohol I had.
——
I got to the office in no time, I didn’t come to work with Adrian, one of the driver brought me which made me understand how mad he is at me, again, ifs his fault, he made me feel unwanted and he made me feel like I had no control over anything and anyone, and it only made me upset more and more about many things.
I stared at him, unable to utter any words, I settled on my chair, I didn’t speak until his eyes met mine and my breath hitches, my eyes continued to look at him and he had a smile on his face.
“Elara.” I heard a voice call when I looked up, I realized it was Ethan.
“Ethan, how long have you been here?”
“A while, you were staring- I know.”‘I whispered cutting him off.
I pulled the files that were on my table and I invoiced them before I handed them over to him.
Ethan was still there, staring at me, he was trying to make it difficult to keep him a lot alive than I wanted him to be.
I stared at him.
“What? I have work to do.” I breathed out, I didn’t mean to be rude, I had to, if I wanted him to leave.
“Just you are beautiful and I know you are off limits for now, but the guys and I are going out later for drinks, some of the ladies are coming, it may be a chance for you to get to know everyone.” He stated
Maybe I should go, it will get Adrian to stop with the annoying ignoring, but Papa will never let me go out for drinks, nor will Adrian.
“Elara, it’s just drinks, I promise we will not be alone so you will not think it’s a date or something.” He smiled.
“I will be there, just unm, write me the time and place.” I breathed out, handing him a little piece of paper.
I was about to speak when I looked back and I realized Adrian is not in his seat, that just meant one thing, he is here, he is not going to like what Ethan is doing.
“Looks like the boss is heading our way.” Ethan joked and I rolled my eyes at him.
“What’s going on?.” Ethan heard from behind, I didn’t have to loo up to know he didn’t sound happy, I didn’t have to look up to know he is throwing dead daggers at Ethan.
I need to be confident.
“The staff are having drinks later today and Ethan wants me to come, I thought it would be a great idea, a chance for me to know and learn about everyone.” I smiled as I stared at him.
He didn’t look any happy.
“Drinks after work.”
“We thought it would be a fun idea, sir,” Ethan stated, Why is he never scared of Adrian, did he think Adrian would not fire him, or worse kill him, maybe they didn’t know the position Adrian is hiding in secret.
“We will be there.”
“What?”
“Don’t cancel Ethan, drinks will be happening and Elara and I will show up, right on time, if others don’t come, I will assume it’s on you and you must have told them something, am I clear?” Adrian asked and he nodded.
Ethan wasted no time in heading out of the room.
“Do you plan on ignoring me all through the day Adrian, because of a mere blue balls?” I asked and he stopped in his tracks, he turned to look at me.
“You have no idea what you have done Elara and maybe I will take my sweet time showing you how it feels.”
“What does that mean?”I asked, How does it feel, I am never letting him touch me even if I am drunk, I would never do that, I made a promise to keep it till marriage, and I will honor that, it's not only for him, it was also for me, it made me feel better knowing that.
Adrian takes two strides toward me, his eyes were on mine as he stared at me, I didn’t move or back away, despite the way my heart skipped a beat, I didn’t want him to know how scared I was.
“What’s wrong Elara? Are you scared that you will lose your mind if I come close to you, are you worried that you may not be able to control the sinful thoughts that you have in mind?” He asked and I didn’t speak. “You had your fun last night, now it’s going to be my turn, and believe me you will enjoy every part of it.” He smirked
