LUST LOVE: Slave To The Billionaire CEO

Chapter 13



She watches him leave, without a word. She couldn’t tell what was wrong or what she did wrong. How can he just leave like that? she wonders. She stayed there, hoping he would come back but after a long wait, he never came.

She was still chained to the headboard, completely naked with not even a sheet on her body. She blinks continuously, trying hard not to burst into tears. her heart is heavy, and her hands ache… Using her legs, she struggles to pull on the covers. After a long trial, she finally succeeded in covering her lower body… Consuming her pain, she falls asleep.

In the early hours of the morning, Keane stood by the bedside, watching her sleep ever so peacefully, looking so innocent and cute. She moans in pain as she struggles to turn around. He opens the stringers, letting her hands loose. He pulls on the covers over her body, and she curls herself under, feeling the unfamiliar warmth she was deprived of. With one more glance at her, he walks out of the room. The morning sun shines so brightly, seeping through the windows. She moans in her sleep, holding onto her pillow in a tight hug. It surprised her how she was able to move around freely, she could clearly remember she slept with her hands cuffed…Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

She winces in pain. There was a red line around her wrist. A knock comes on the door and a lady walks in with a first aid kit… She pulls on the cover involuntarily, covering her body. The lady didn’t say a word and just went ahead in treating her injured hands. The room was dead silent, She watched her tie a bandage around her wrist after applying some essential oil. She didn’t know how she was going to bathe without her wetting on the bandage but before she could open her mouth to complain, two women walked in and led her into the bath. She wanted to resist, to refuse but she didn’t stand a chance against them. She couldn’t go against Keane’s orders, knowing that the ladies were there because of him… She felt embarrassed, standing naked before them, most especially because of the hickeys on her body. At their age, they know what it is and understand what transpired between her and their boss…

After her bath, she went down for breakfast. Everywhere was clean and fresh as usual, with only her to spend the rest of her day inside the big and boring mansion… Her body aches from last night. The only thing she could do was go to bed and have enough rest. The incident of the previous night plays in her head, bringing pain and sadness. She shakes off the thought, willing and ready to enjoy her day no matter how bad it already was… who would have thought that she, Smiles, would one day live under another and be tortured to such an extent? how pathetic she is right now…

After some hours of rest, Smiles couldn’t bring herself to sleep anymore… everywhere was bored and even her boredom was bored… She walked out of the mansion. It was her first time going outside since she came… It was bright and beautiful with the sun shining ever so brightly, sending its warm rays all over the place… She looked around, getting herself accustomed to the environment… A black Lamborghini drove in and stood before her. She knew who it was, Derrick. He is the only one capable of doing such… She watches him step out of the car, smiling.

“home alone, huh?” said Derrick standing before her, smiling ever so brightly.

“yeah!” her tone was soft, in a boring way as she tried to avoid eye contact.

“I see… day going nicely” He jokes knowing it’s the total opposite. If glare could kill, he would’ve been long dead with her deadly gaze at him…

“Why are you here?” questions Smiles, feeling annoyed.

“to laugh at you” came his unreasonable and hideous response. It seems like he is only there to get her angrier.

“Why do you get to have such a name when you can’t even portray it?” he followed her behind.

“and how is it your business with how I chose to behave?” She questions angrily.

“chill out, I can’t breathe” He faked a choking face. Smiles could only smile at his naughty and childish behavior.

“Did you see that?” questioned Derrick in a surprised tone. She twists her brow in confusion.

“See what?” she asked.

“an angel just smiled at me,” he said, flashing her his sweet smile. A beautiful smile spread on her lips. She was unable to withstand his words.

“got what you wanted, right?” She asked. He bobs his head, like a child.

“So tell me, why are you here?” She knows he is supposed to be with Keane in the office, so seeing him here surprises her.

“to see you, it’s been a while you know” he scratches his hair.

“but it’s just been two days!” She couldn’t believe he could be this clingy. It’s been a few days since they met each other but it feels like they have known each other for ages…

“I know right? I just thought of checking on you…” he explains.

“But aren’t you supposed to be in the office today?” She questions not understanding what’s going on.

“I decided to sneak out from the office because I know I won’t be caught,” said Derrick as he winked at her. Smiles tilt her head to the side, confused.

“Who says he won’t?” she raised a brow at him demanding an answer.

“He can’t possibly have two bodies, right? to watch me from Colorado” he laughs. Finding it funny. Smiles didn’t laugh, it was a big surprise to her. She stared at him with wide eyes and raised eyebrows and froze to her spot.

“He didn’t tell you?” It was Derrick’s turn to ask in disbelief. She closes her eyes, taking in a deep breath before opening them again. She nods a yes. It wasn’t a surprise to Derrick, but somehow, it hurt him to see her all sad.

“don’t be sad, that’s just the way he is” he tries to comfort her.

“I am not!” her tone was firm…
