538 [Bonus chapter]The Attraction Between Them
She didn’t sign up for this, Winters groaned in annoyance as she walked out of her temporary room in the Spencer’s residence, sleepy-eyed.
Where was she going to begin with the debrief?
Well, after they failed to get Chloe out of here, only to find out that she’s holed up at Sakuzi’s place, Marcel ordered her to remain here. While Mimi had to quit, leaving her behind because – Victor had a high libido and couldn’t afford to stay away from her – it was too risky to have both of them here.
In one word, she was here to spy on the Spencers, especially on activities related or connected with Chloe, Marcel’s sister . From the few days she was here, Winters was able to confirm that Chloe lived here and contrary to what Marcel thought, she wasn’t maltreated or tortured. If anything, they treated her as one of their own, which wasn’t surprising since the Spencer’s are known for their warm hospitality – as long as you don’t get on the triplet’s bad side.
Why was Chloe moved then? Winters wasn’t able to get an answer for that one, but one thing was clear, Chloe was in safe hands – for now. If Marcel doesn’t get her from Sakuzi soon, Winters feared Daniel would soon rise up to the challenge, especially now the marriage between him and Clara can no longer happen. Daniel liked to be in control and his obsession with making Marcel’s life miserable wasn’t going to end just like that.
This was not the end, that was for sure.
Well then, why does she have a room in Spencer’s residence? After Mimi gave up and she accepted Marcel’s orders of staying put, Reina wanted her to become a live-in nanny. But she rejects the idea, knowing that she needed to return to Marcel and update him on her findings. Also, no offense, but Reina’s children were devils, there was no way on earth she would spend the whole day stuck with them.
Although they were warming up to her and their pranks were becoming less infuriating, it doesn’t excuse the fact they’re still imps. Winters grew up alone and was not used to taking care of others, not to talk of three disobedient and stubborn kids? It was impossible.
Winters has seen Reina’s husband, Niklaus around and he was a really cool man – as long as you’re not threatening his family. One should be open to lots of public display of affection with Niklaus and Reina around, like they don’t give a fuck, and Winters some how wished her family had been like that, you know. However, you can’t change the past and wishes were a fairytale. This is reality.
.....
Reina had to spend the night over at her daughter Isabella’s place and pleaded with Winters to stay the night with a promise of reward, hence was given a room to reside. And yes, her room was in the same room as Akim’s, wonderful, right?
But then, Winters was a good kid and didn’t attempt doing anything naughty with Akim. Moreover, both of them are friends now. Really coool friends, if you know what she means. Akim helped her out in handling the kids – that is if they were to be called kids. The triplets were twelve for crying out loud, but Winters guessed she would never be able to understand rich people..
They tucked in the kids for bed after hours of playing video games and the both of them returned to their respective rooms with sweet goodbyes – and no kiss at all. Not even a peck on the cheek. Nor was she disappointed. Yep, she was cool. She was enjoying the friend zone. No sweat at all.
And while she tossed and turned in bed all night, unable to sleep for strange reasons – she didn’t want to admit –
Winters never once had the thought of sneaking into Akim’s room. Yeah, her mind was as innocent as day.There was no way on earth she had been corrupted by Marcel and Mimi. If Akim wanted them to remain friends, then friends they would be. She swore on Marcel’s thing (hopefully Arianna never hears that).
It wasn’t surprising she woke up with dark circles beneath her eyes the next morning. Winters hadn’t been able to sleep a wink last night and she was happy that she would finally leave this place today. Back at the base, she would sleep comfortably and she already missed her computers, being a nanny was not her thing at all.
Wiping at her eyes, Winters groggily walked out of the door like a zombie, she wanted a glass of water. However, she suddenly walked into a wall and stumbled back, stunned. Glancing up, Winters found out that it wasn’t a wall, but Akim’s chest and boy oh boy, he was bare.
Winters forgot how to breathe as her eyes glued on Akim’s hard, lean body. She swallowed the lump in her throat as her gaze lowered, slowly taking in the hard ridges of his stomach to the deep V that vanished into his pants – and she shamelessly enjoyed the show. Damn, she has been corrupted.
Winters glanced up to see that Akim has been watching her devour him with her eyes and a blush crept up her cheeks. God, she wanted to die.
“Sorry, I should have been decent,” Akim crossed his arms across his chest, hiding the perfect view.
What a disappointment.
God, get your head back in the game, Winters.
“Don’t worry, I enjoyed the view....” Winters trailed off when she realized what she just said. Oh no. When did she become as horny as Marcel and Arianna?
Winters knew she had to rein in her hormones before she did something that would ruin her great friendship with Akim. Good thing, she was going back to the base today.
“I should go,” Winters moved as fast as her legs could take her. She can’t do this anymore, pretend there was no attraction between them?
Winters fanned her chicks. Akim was too much temptation.
As if God was on her side today, her phone rang and Winters picked it with joy upon seeing that it was Reina calling, but that joy didn’t last.
Winters’ face changed in the next minutes when Reina announced that she wasn’t returning today due to some circumstances and she wanted her to stay one more day.
Well, isn’t it amazing?
