Chapter 50
Leigh-Ann’s POV
Kash walked in looking more worried. Okay, what else happened? “Um… I just called Kenver. He’s good but he said he had been attacked too. His Manager was strangled to death”NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
I gasped and turned to Kael who sat like he hadn’t heard anything. How did all that happen?
“I need…” Kael suddenly said and staggered towards Kash. “I need fucking hoes. I won the contract so there’s every need for celebration”
Kash shot him a surprised stare and then he turned to me. “I’m not insane.” Kael blurted out and laughed “I’m drunk, am I? Huh?”
He laughed again and staggered out of the room.
“He’s drunk. That thing he drank is always bad and fucking good” Kash said and walked out too. I had no choice but to follow suit.
Hmph.

I got over to Kael’s room as Kash had advised I stayed with him in case he needed any help. I got over and stared at him as he lay on the bed sleeping with no shirt on, just his trousers. He was so damn cute even in his sleep.
I just stood there like a log of wood, admiring him but that wasn’t all. I suddenly felt strange and my throat went dry. I kept gulping hard till my throat started hurting. What the fuck was happening to me? Was it because I’ll be staying with him for the rest of the night?
I suddenly felt hot even when the air conditioners were on. Okay, you need to calm down Leigh, he’s not an animal. I said to myself as I got over to the bed and slowly, I took off his wristwatch and jewelry.
Staring down at his bare body, I felt like running my fingers over his tattooed chest. I cleared the thoughts off my mind and got off the bed to drop the jewelry.
At this moment, he was vulnerable and if I got a knife, I could stab the hell out of him. Did they really trust me to leave him under my watch?
But come to think of it, what sort of a guy was he to have so much beauty embedded in one soul? I got back on the bed and placed the back of my fingers on his forehead. His temperature was normal, quite impressive.
I pulled closer and stared down at his face. His eyes were closed with his dark lashes bedded below. His lips were beautiful and pink, how adorable?
I wanted to pull away and run out of the room, maybe find something to do to clear my head but something in me didn’t want to leave.
“It’s not too late to turn away Leigh.” I kept saying to myself but it was too late. I’ve never been kissed before and deep down, I wanted to try it out but thinking of the numerous girls he has kissed, especially Tess made me frown in disgust.
But does it matter? I mean I was only experimenting, right? Slowly, I brushed my lips on his, and not knowing how to go about it, I took his lower lips in my mouth and sucked slowly with my eyes closed.
Hm, it felt… I don’t know but it felt really strange especially when my body started reacting to it. Still, with my eyes closed, I kissed him more, not knowing if I was kissing him or just sucking his lips.
Shockingly, I felt something touch my waist. It rubbed it lightly and I realized it was Kael’s hand. Omg!!! I thought he was sleeping.
I wanted to pull off but then, he was kissing me back and I just couldn’t take it all, it was breathtaking. After kissing for some time, I pulled away and looked into his dazed face, hoping I could say something to him but nothing could form in my head. This was all a mistake or maybe I liked him as my boss and couldn’t get a hold of myself.
“Leigh-Ann…” He called out weakly, his eyes bleary “You’re gonna hurt yourself”
I didn’t want him to say more so I pressed my lips to his, kissing with so much passion. He did the same but I couldn’t tell if he just kissed me back cause he had no choice but to reciprocate.
I’ve never experienced this feeling before but what was it? Was it love? No, I doubt that.

Tess’s POV
When I got the news about the sudden attack on Kael, I rushed off to meet him, making it look like I was there for Kenver. Well, I also heard he lost the contract to Kael.
Once I arrived, I met Kash who told me Kael wasn’t in the right state to meet anyone. I knew that but I couldn’t just leave. I wanted to see him and maybe use that medium to apologize deeply. A little sex could change everything too.
When Kash finally agreed, he led me to Kael’s Zone and finally left me to go in on my own. I walked in and on arriving at his bedroom, I met the door open. I took a glance inside the room and what I saw made my jaw drop.
The ash-headed witch with Kael?
They were kissing and Kael’s hand was on her waist.

Author’s POV
When Tess couldn’t stand the sight anymore, she turned and stormed out furiously. How dare she? She even had the guts to kiss him, to touch him.
Leigh-Ann kept up with the kiss and didn’t realize when she trailed her fingers on his tattooed chest. The feeling came so sudden and she couldn’t put an end to it.
After some time, two ladies cat-walked into the room, disrupting the kiss and before Leigh-Ann knew what was going on, they took off their jackets immediately, exposing their naked bodies.
Leigh-Ann gasped and looked away, her heart racing so fast. She looked back at Kael and discovered his eyes were pinned on the ladies. He didn’t even spare her a glance.
The ladies got over to the bed and began kissing Kael while the other tried touching Leigh-Ann who moved away. She felt so much pain in her heart but couldn’t tell why.
What were these feelings, really? Why was she hurt? She was only experimenting, right?
Since the ladies had begun their work, Leigh-Ann rushed out of the room and leaned on the wall for support. She felt too weak, too vulnerable.
Is this what Kael meant when he told her she was gonna hurt herself? Why didn’t she try to listen and understand him? Why didn’t she figure out that she was gonna hurt herself?
She should’ve stayed away. Now she felt so cheap, dirty, and useless. It had been an experiment but it had gotten out of hand and triggered her emotions.
