Chapter 27: Chapter 27

TOBY.

"I need to shower too, you know!" I said as I bang the door. She had been hugging the bathroom for way too long, I know that she is on the bigger side but damn, should it take that long for her to shower? Since banging on the door was not working, I sat on the bed and started to undress. I had just taken off my shirt when she walked in and the towel she had on left little to the imagination and I had to admit that she had curves in all the right places. I gawked at her a little longer than I should have but thankfully, she was staring at me and did not notice.

"Take a picture, it'll last you longer," I said as I walked into the bathroom.

The bathroom smellt nice, it must be whatever shampoo and shower gel she used. I didn't spend ages as she did, I brushed my teeth, showered in a record time and walked out with a towel around my waist. I could see that Ruby was checking me out as I towel my body. I couldn't blame her, who wouldn't want to gawk at all this gorgeousness? I looked her way and winked before reaching for my towel.

Her eyes widen as she noticed that she had been caught and they almost bulge out of their socket when she saw that I was about to untie my towel, she shut them after blinking for a few seconds like she was finding it hard to close them causing me to break out into laughter.

After I have recovered from my laughter, I got myself into a pair of pyjama pants and dived into bed, next to Ruby who was as red as the stone she is named after with her eyes slammed shut. It was obvious from her irregular breathing that she was not asleep yet, I let out a snort and a chuckle.

Look who insisted we sleep together and was now almost dying from embarrassing herself. I was very tired so it didn't take me long to fall asleep, thoughts of Ruby were far from my mind.

"Yasmin… please let me sleep," I mumbled enjoying the feel of her soft hand splayed on my chest and the other one calming my aroused member through my pants but at the same time, still groggy with sleep.

I come fully awake when her motion becomes more frantic and pulled her closer, palming her ass only to find that this ass was bigger than Yasmin's and the stomach pressed against me had a little bulge in like Yasmin's whose stomach is always flat. I opened my eyes and came face to face with Ruby, mouth opened and breathe coming out in little pant.

"Eww… she must be having a wet dream or something," I said as I tried to push her off me but she seemed to hold on tighter. I push a second time with what might have been a little too much force because she ended up rolling off the bed entirely and landing on the ground with a loud thud. I quickly turned over and pretended to be fast asleep.

RUBY.

I woke up on the floor feeling disoriented until I recall the dream I was having. "I must have been, oh no, I didn't." I facepalmed myself as I recalled what must have happened.

Someone, please tell me I wasn't feeling Toby up before the ogre pushed me off the bed.

I glared at his shirtless broad back, this was all his fault, why would he be sleeping shirtless when he was sharing a bed and if he didn't move about shirtless and in a towel, not to forget the strip tease he almost gave me before I slept then my subconscious would not have conjured such dreams.

He would pay for this, he had to.

Morning could not come fast enough, after the little incident with Toby, I crawled back into bed and this time I stayed as far away from him as I possibly could. When he woke up, I pretended to be asleep while he got ready for the day, and I didn't stand up till I was sure I heard the front door click shut. I heaved a sigh of relief when I was finally alone and went straight to the bathroom to get ready for the day ahead. I found the phone and ordered for breakfast.

After breakfast, I decided to explore the resort and almost immediately, I began I ran into Toby and the Resort Manager. "We were just about to take a tour, would you like to join us?" Toby said, surprising me.

"Yeah, sure." I was not about to look a gift horse in the mouth, taking a tour with them was better than wandering around aimlessly.

The resort was divided into the presidential, VIP and basic floors. Each on separate floors. Our Suite was on the highest floor. The Presidential floor took up the upper floors of the buildings and apart from hosting various rooms and suites, there were also various conference rooms a gym, a spa, a saloon, a restaurant, a bar and an indoor pool. The same thing was replicated in the VIP and basic floors but in a minor fashion. The presidential floor was as the name implied, grander, bigger and more dignified than all the others. It screamed money.

We walked past the lobby and the front desk to my favourite parts of the resort, the outside.

"Mr. Daniels, your attention is needed at the front gate sir." A Timid-looking man says.

"It better be important." Was Toby's gruff reply before he walked away.

I continued the tour without Toby, the resort also had a golf course so lush grass could be seen on all sides but what was even the pinnacle of it all was the gardens. There was a shopping mall and an outdoor pool but it was of no interest to me when I had fallen in love with this enchanted forest of a garden. The manager looked like he had more important things to do than watch me explore so I told him he could go and he looked relieved.

TOBY.

After we have walked a safe distance away from Ruby and the Manager, the man who came to call me informed me that my lady friend had been making a scene at the gate.

"Yasmin," I muttered under my breath trying to clamp down on my raging temper. That woman does not know the meaning of discretion, she was lucky that all the staff here signed a non-disclosure agreement.

"Baby!" She exclaimed standing up as I came into view.

She had been seated on the hood of her car parked outside the gates, wearing a flimsy excuse of a shirt, toned thighs and crossed legs exposed in a flair skirt. The sight of her stubborn self had my anger cooling down and my thoughts straying to other things.

Once I stepped out the gate she ran towards me and wrapped her arms around me.

"They wouldn't let me through." She whined.

"I told you to stay back. A lot is on the line here for me, for us. I can't risk my spot at my dad's company." I said, trying to think with my head which was a hard fit to achieve with her body pressed against mine so I pushed her off me.

"But babe, no one will even know I'm here." She said, trying to reach for me again

"Leave." I gritted out trying to be stern.

"Okay fine, but just know that if I leave then you'd be seeing the last of me." She said before trotting back to her car.
