Chapter 29: Chapter 29
(Vivienne)
I sat there watching him work on my foot. It was stinging a lot but I gripped the sheets of my bed tightly biting my lower lip as hard as I could hoping the pain would subside but the tingling sensation which happened when Victor was cleaning it with some alcohol-based liquids had me clenching my teeth.
"Shh," he kept muttering while blowing cool air to lessen the pain. I didn't know if I would ever wear any closed shoes again because my toes were sliced so badly
"It's...it's okay," I said, still biting my lip so that I could taste the warm metallic liquid coming out which I ignored and tried to relax as I could while Victor worked gracefully. Indeed the man was a doctor. So serious as he did his work. This was a minor issue that I could do on my own but when he brought me back to my apartment. He insisted on tending to me since I couldn't argue with him. I let him get away with it
"Vic...how did you find me... weren't you away?"I asked when I was a bit calm and relaxed. He still didn't tell me how he found out I was at that restaurant and he came just at the right time
"I didn't go out of the city, plans changed...I went to the factory instead" he muttered keeping his eyes on his task. I didn't say anything after that but I was glad he didn't go and I was happy he found me there. He should know I wasn't making things up. Someone was doing this. To scare me maybe because they didn't want me in Victor's life
"It's done now...with the injection I gave you the pain will subside," he said while wrapping a bandage on my toes and around. I nodded still looking at him. The way his hands touched my foot was so sensitive that I had to shut down my brain from further thoughts
"Thanks, sir," I said when he was done and moved my leg away from his touch. He didn't say anything but nodded and gathered the blood-stained cotton and everything he was using and packed up the first aid kit
"I'll get rid of this," he said, showing me what he had and I nodded at him. He already knew where the bathroom was hence I sat there watching him as he disappeared inside and the door closed
"Who is it…"I muttered looking at my foot. In the past, I had thought it was Monica who was doing this but she was innocent although bitter. The bathroom incident where I found some electric naked wires in the water I was going to bathe in. If not for Julia and Monica I would have died of electric shock that day
We chose not to tell anyone, especially Victor, about everything. I was just seven months pregnant. Then again it happened before, when I was four months someone spilled oil on the stairs and I didn't know this. I nearly fell down the stairs if not for Monica who stopped me and ended up falling herself. That day Monica asked the servants who spilled oil on the stairs but no one knew. Not even Julia who was away that day
"Was it the same woman who killed Alisa?" this time I was sure, this information I kept to myself. While living in the Ellison mansion I came across something that even Victor didn't know about, it seemed Alisa yes had cancer but there was something that sped up her life to end so soon. I needed to ask Monica a few things about Alisa and why someone wanted her dead especially hiding her cancer illness from Victor when it wasn't necessary
"You okay?"Victor's voice brought me back to my senses and I looked up only to find him staring at me with narrowed eyes. For a great businessman and a doctor he was a complete fool
"I'm fine...you should go, "I said knowing he needed to go and see Skylar. What if she was still shaken after what happened earlier. I didn't want my daughter to be in danger because of me. I guess staying away would be fine because whoever wanted me out of Victor's life would try to hurt my baby
"If it's Sky you are worried about...she's fine...I talked to her just now...she's with Kyan and about to go to bed" he said showing me his phone, I looked at him for a while as he put his phone on the side table and walked up to me. I shifted a little feeling uncomfortable having him around when it was so late at night
"Let me see" he muttered and lowered down not sure what he was doing but he half sat in the bed and grabbed the sides of my face scaring me
"Do I have less blood?"I asked since he was checking my eyes. The man was so close to me that his sweet scent hit my nose making me relaxed and my eyes lowered to his chest. The two top buttons were open showing his throat, so sexy and toned
"Seems like it...I'll talk to Maverick... something is off about you" he muttered and let me go. He didn't move away but just sat there hesitantly
"You know...in such a situation...any man would take full advantage" I whispered when his eyes fell on me. He didn't react but I saw a smirk tugging at his lips not sure if my words amused him. The man was handsome, so good looking and his red lips looked so tasty that my heart started racing as all sorts of naughty thoughts started circulating in my head
"It seems you like being taken advantage of," he murmured and reached for my face. His touch had me closing my eyes, swallowing hard as he leaned closer. His hot breath brushed on my cheeks. My hands automatically moved to his chest. I was hesitant but I placed it on his beating heart
"Does it beat for me?"I asked the first thing which came to my mind. I wanted him to spoil me right there and then. I was about to get killed twice in a day I didn't want to spend the night alone
"It depends," he muttered as he kissed my cheeks. He lingered there and moved his hand to my back and pressed me to him
"Stop me before I take full advantage" he whispered as he exhaled against my face, his breathing fanning me and making me even more sensitive. I didn't have to say anything but found his mouth. Our lips met, the feeling ignited and the volcano erupted letting all the lava flow.
"Mmm...ahh," his kisses were so intoxicating, so gratifying, sending me into a delirious frenzy as I moved close to him, slipping my hand in his shirt to feel his warmth. I didn't want him to stop even when he pulled me to his lap. I happily sat crossing my legs to his sides and wrapped my arms around his neck pulling him close as we deepened the kiss. So soft as his gentle hands pressed on my back firmly keeping me in place. My knees weakened from ecstasy
"Mm," moans escaped our sealed littles, the cold air blowing in the room added to the moment such that my mind reeled off. The feel of his hot mouth on mine made me feel dizzy, and the taste of his lips sent a tingling sensation down my spine rendering me useless. It was pleasurable like seeing every color of the rainbow, the sweetness engulfing me to the point where I felt like I was being levitated off the ground and floating in the air
"Vic please, "I said, catching my breath when he broke the ice. He didn't let go of me but kept his large hands gripping my face as he connected our foreheads. His breathing had increased so much that his heart was thumping loud enough for me to hear it
"Ms. Payton…" he murmured my name but it came out like a moan, so deep and masculine and restrained as he fought to himself steady that I noticed and I knew he wanted to stop himself
"Taste me now"I had nothing to lose but wanted us to have a night. He needed to stop being in control and lose himself for once. I wanted him in full beast mode and when he managed to open his eyes. Our gazes met. There was nothing but lust and fire in his eyes. I didn't even have to say anything when he shoved me off the bed. His shirt came off and he tossed it away and came upon me. The excitement circulating in my body had me feeling nervous when he ripped my shirt apart.
"Ahh" it was so frightening as my chest was exposed leaving me in a bra. His eyes lingered on my face before he shifted to my chest. I swore the man was a full package, from his hard arms. His broad shoulders and rippling muscles were everywhere to the thing in his trousers. So hard and aroused that I saw when he tugged at my bra and ripped it open. It was surprising how he used little strength to rip my clothes
"There are better ways to remove clothes" I whispered irritatedly at him but the man just smirked at me and shifted his eyes to my skirt. Before he even dared to destroy my clothes. I shoved the skirt down but he shrugged my hands away and in one swift movement the skirt was off and tossed away on the floor. I shivered when I was exposed, the cold air brushing on me
"Let's play little one" he murmured huskily, his voice so fruity and intoxicating as he captured my mouth for a kiss. My hands moved to his shoulders as I arched my hips and then reached for his trousers. I tugged at it hoping he could take it off because I wanted us, skin to skin.
