A Deal With The Millionaire

They got to his mansion and Mirah guided him in together with his driver. They dropped him gently on his bed and Mirah sighed sadly. She was in love with this man but it hurts her so much that he didn’t feel the same way, that was why she kept venting her anger at Layla.

She knows Layla didn’t do nothing but it’s just hurting her to see the man she love love her best friend Instead. She wiped the tears that had fall unconsciously and she let out a sigh. The driver had left by now.

Suddenly a hand grabbed her and pulled her to the bed, she let out a loud gasp. It was Bryan in his drunk state. He held her tightly, caging her in his arm with his eyes still shut. She sighed, hoping he could do this in his right senses not in his drunk state.

She tried to break free but he wouldn’t allow her. He mustn’t see her like this tomorrow else he might think she’s forcing herself on him and she wouldn’t want that. She might be in love with him but one thing she cares so much about is her dignity.

She released herself to his grip and closed her eyes gently. She would get up before he’s awake tomorrow. One thing he hated is when one touches his properly, he might flare up seeing her on his bed.

” I hope she’s fine ” She muttered, referring to Layla.

She closed her eyes and immediately, sleep took over.

*** Next Morning ***

Mirah spranged up immediately and let out a sigh of relief. She was glad Bryan wasn’t awake yet and hadn’t seen her in that state together with him.

She grabbed her bags and made to rush out but her eyes caught a painting in his room. Her lips spread into a smile immediately. ” My painting ” She muttered.

She moved closer to the painting and accessed it slowly in smiles. She’s glad, even if he doesn’t feel a thing for her at least he still cherishes her gift.

Years ago, when she had that sweet dream, she painted this for him.

” Cole, give this to your brother for me. I painted it for him ” 15 years old Mirah said to Cole, Bryan’s younger brother.

” Wow, this is pretty ” Cole said and she smiled. ” Thanks Layla, I’m sure my brother would love this ” Cole said and Mirah chuckled.

” Dude, it’s Mirah not Layla ” She said and he gasped lowly. ” Sorry, I forgot again ” He said and she smiled.

” It’s fine, give it to him okay? ” She said and Cole nodded. She moved her finger towards the little dove in the painting and made to touch it but a strong grip held her and pulled her roughly away from the painting and she fell to the ground.

” You know how much I hate when someone touches my treasure! ” He snapped at Mirah whom tears was falling freely down her cheeks by now. It wasn’t as a result of the fall but for the fact that he didn’t care and he pushed her roughly.

” Bryan.. ”

” Why are you here? Are you that obsessed with me!? You even slept on my bed! You are really trying to force yourself on me ain’t you!? You even dare touch my precious treasure cause you’re jealous I still treasure something your friend gave to me after years! Huh? What the hell are you!? ” He shouted, venting his anger on her and Mirah’s tears increased.

He thinks she’s obsessed. He thinks she’s jealous! He thinks she’s trying to get his attention!

” Leave my house! Now! ” He yelled angrily and Mirah stood up slowly. She wiped her tears and faced him. The man she loved so much for years is saying all these hurtful words to her without caring.

” I said leave! ” He snapped and she let out a sad smile.

” I will and I promise I’m killing my feelings for you, cause you’re a bastard!! After showing you how much I loved you! Yeah, I might be in love with you but I’m not obsessed! Okay? I’m not doing all these to get your attention! I didn’t come here willingly to sleep on your bed! I’m not a bitch!! I’m not trying to force myself on you!! I’m not desperate! And I’m not jealous of Layla! I only came here cause you came to me first! You fell on me at home and I had to bring you here together with your driver, you could ask him! I tried to leave after dropping you on the bed but you dragged me to your bed in your drunken state! I tried to break free but you wouldn’t!! I’m not so desperate and I’m not a bitch! Stop calling me that! I have my dignity! ” She yelled hurtfully.

” I really would have never thought you would say something of such to me! I loved you so much and you gave me high hopes! I would have stopped loving you if you had told me from the beginning you didn’t feel the same way, if you had rejected this painting… ” She pointed at the painting Bryan was holding.

” If you had rejected it, I would have knew I didn’t stand a chance but you didn’t. You fvcking told your brother to tell me you loved it and would cherish it all your life! That gave me high hopes!! I fell more cause you accepted my heart! But now you’ve done a great job in shattering it. Those words you said to me today, I would never forget them ” She cried bitterly and turned her back against Bryan who looked really shocked as he processed Mirah’s word.

” The painting? It was from her? ” He thought slowly.

* Flashback *

” Brother! Brother! ” 15 years old Cole rushed to 20 years old Bryan. Cole was holding a beautiful painting on his hands and he handed it over to Bryan.

Bryan collected it and his lips widened into a smile. A painting of two doves, A male white big dove sat on a tree and the female one sat beside him with a little flower on her tiny hand, she was handling it over to the white dove.

* Please accept my heart * was scribbled on the painting. He chuckled as he read it and it set a blush to him as his ear reddened.

It was probably one of the two friends of his. ” Who gave you this? ” He asked Cole. ” It’s Layla ” He said with a smile and he ( Bryan ) smile widely. He brought out a note from his pocket and tore a little out of it and scribbled on it.

He wrote, * I will cherish this with my life ” With an heart shaped. He handed it over to Cole. ” Give it to her ” He said and Cole smiled.

” I will give her tomorrow ” He said and Bryan nodded. Bryan looked at the beautiful panting and smiled. He placed a kiss on it before hugging it to his chest.

Meanwhile, Cole handed the note to the rightful owner, Mirah. Mirah blushed heavily and ran to show it to Layla.

* Flashback ends *

Mirah wiped her tears and then turned to Bryan who was slowly understanding where the mistake came from. ” I hate you! I hate you so much for deceiving me! I hate you! ” She cried angrily. She turned and made to leave but Bryan drew her back and she faced him angrily.

” What!? ” She yelled still in tears. ” The painting.. was from you? ” He asked and she scoffed.

” Yes! What are you going to do!? Tear it apart! Do it! I don’t care anymore! ” She yelled and made to turn again but in a swift, he grabbed her and pinning her with his hands, he smashed his lips on hers roughly.

Mirah was shocked and tried to break free angrily but he didn’t give her space for that. He bit her lips roughly and she let out a gasp and that gave him entrance to his mouth and he pushed his tongue into her mouth.

Mirah couldn’t resist anymore and she pulled him more closer, it’s what she had been craving for so long. She had to give in as she also sucked his lips hungrily. Seems they both have been craving for this for so long as they feasted on their lips angrily.

Bryan broke the kiss when he realized they were both out of breath. His lips were swollen by now and it was the same for her.

” I’m sorry ” He was the first to say as they both stared at each other, catching their breaths. ” Why did you do that? ” Mirah asked slowly, referring to the kiss.

” I thought you liked Layla instead ” She completed. ” The painting, it was you right? ” He asked again and she nodded. ” Cole gave you the letter? ” He asked and she nodded again.

” I’m sorry ” He muttered and grabbed her to himself, hugging her tightly.
