I knew it

Adric’s POV

She laid about her name, I knew she was nervous, to be honest I didn’t expect her to lie about her name, she doesn’t remember we met, well I met her, and she didn’t even look up to see my face.

At the cafe when I saw her for the first time, she walked up to us when we were having a meeting, it was all Stephen, he picked this place for the meeting something about how much he loves their chicken, and well it tasted good. When I saw her at first I thought she was just staff but she shocked all of us when she said she was the owner, didn’t expect that to be honest, I kept staring at her like a fool that day but her whole focus was on Stephen.

There was something about her eyes, the way she walks, the way she talks, and the way she laughs that makes me keep thinking about her. I still remembered her name, Amaya.

I didn’t know to expect to see her at my club, hell I didn’t even expect to see her dancing, when she did I couldn’t stop myself, I went behind and to my surprise, she didn’t push me or anything, she just danced, I didn’t plan on taking her back to the hotel but when she grind on me, smiled, I had to.

We got to the hotel and I had the most amazing night, can’t say I didn’t enjoy it. I loved every moment of it, what if didn’t expect was that she would leave, she wasn’t there when I woke up, and she didn’t even bother to say goodbye; there was no way she didn’t enjoy last night, I know she did. I sent a quick message to roger to get me some clean clothes and food, I needed to go to work, I’m sure Stephen

Would be looking at me, it’s unlike me to come late for work.

It took a few minutes before Roger came by, I took a quick bath and wore my clothes, this hotel belonged to one of my friends.

“Good morning sir.”

I walked toward my office.

“Mr.Miller is waiting in your office, sir.” My secretary informed me.

Just as expected, Stephen is waiting for me.

“Make sure no one disturbs me,” I said to her, I didn’t feel like working today, I wasn’t in the mood to have any meetings or any other thing with anyone.

“It’s unlike you to be late,” Stephen said once I opened the door. He didn’t even have to take a look, he knew it was me.

“Something important came up.”

“You got laid.” He smiled, I wish I could wipe off that smirk from his face.

I took a seat on my leather chair facing Stephen.

Stephen is like a brother to me, we have always been friends ever since I can remember, I met Stephen when I was in middle school, he saved me from bullying, and ever since we became friends and after a while, I took over my Dad’s company, I made sure to help Stephen start his, which I’m in partnership with and after a couple of years I found out he was screwing my sister, something about being in love with her.

I didn’t approve at first because I never thought Stephen would be the type to fall in love or rather to commit, I knew the kind of person he saw, the partying kind, the sleeping with the different girls he was like me so when I found out he was with my sister I was upset just like every other guy but he showed me he loves Claire a lot and he would do anything for her.

I didn’t want to stand in the way of love so I gave them my blessings, mom, on the other hand, didn’t quite agree to it but Claire cared less, she cared more about my opinion, Mom wasn’t always there for us, I didn’t give much of a shit about it but it affected Claire more after she got married to Stephen she hasn’t been in contact with Mom since then.

“Does it really matter?.” I asked.

“You never spend the night, you always leave after sex.”

“I- It’s her isn’t it.” He said interrupting me.

He knew that day at the coffee house how much I was staring at her, he knew it was unlike me to look at someone like that and I didn’t want us to leave, I watched her through the glass door.

“I didn’t expect to see her at one of my clubs.”

“Tell me everything.”

Despite the fact Stephen looks like a built bodyguard, he is a gossip queen just like his wife.

“No.”

“I share everything with you.” So fucking dramatic.

When he says everything, he means everything even sex details which by the way I’m never interested in listening to because what the fuck it’s my sister, no one wants to hear any shit like that about his sister.

“So when do you meet her next.”

“I didn’t even get her number, she left-“ before I could continue he busted out in laughter. I know the first ever girl to ever leave me in bed; I’m always the one doing the leaving and the first thing someone leaves me.

“She is perfect for you.” He laughed.

She is.

I want to know everything about her, I planned after work I would be going to a coffee house, I want to see her, I want to know more about her.

The rest of the day went by, just like I expected my secretary did her job, there was no meetings or disturbance, I need the peace to complete working on some important documents, Stephen stayed all through the day working with me.

We found out, a couple of million dollars has disappeared from our company and I’m hell-bent to find out who would do this.

“I have to go, I have dinner with Claire.”

“Tell her I said hi.”

“She invited you for dinner on Wednesday,” Stephen says. “Make sure to bring Amaya.” He added.

Not surprised the fucker still remembers her name.
