Pregnant For The Ceo

Twisted

“Good morning, Kathlyn. You look – different” Jess said as Kathlyn walked into the office that morning. Kathlyn wore a bright smile on her face as she made her way into the office.

“Good morning to you too” She said ignoring Jess’ other comment. She walked into her office, arranged the files on her table before settling down to begin the day’s work. She took a peek into Adam’s office and felt a gentle jab of pain in her chest at the sight of a woman in his office.

Since the incident with Jas, Adam had neither called nor returned her call. She dismissed any ill thoughts with the conviction that he was probably busy over the weekend. She did not want to believe that he was avoiding her after f*****g her the way he did. Did he have a reason to do something like that? Revenge? She sucked in a deep breath to erase the thoughts from her head.

She began to panic when she looked at her table clock and realized that the lady in Adam’s office had been in there for over an hour. She had no idea she had been there before she came to the office but it was unsettling. Adam had no appointments for the day. She would know if he did. That meant that this lady was with him without an appointment.

Her curiosity replaced the anger she felt. She quickly grabbed one of the files on her table, adjusted her dress and trotted out of the office. She knocked softly on Adam’s door and waited till she heard his voice ushering her in.

She shut the door behind her and walked closer to his table. She had her eyes fixed on the lady with brunette hair who was sitting opposite Adam.

“What do you want, Miss Georgia?” Adam questioned pulling her attention to him. She stopped in her tracks and stared at his empty eyes. She searched for the right words to say but they failed her. Adam had never called her by that name before. She dropped the file she held on his table and blinked quickly to push back the tears which were gathering.

“I got the file we were working on” She said. She forced a smile and pushed her hair backwards. She purposely let her hair down today because she did not miss how keenly Adam watched her whenever she had it down. It thrilled her and made her feel twice as pretty as she normally felt.

“You can leave” He said dismissing her. Kathlyn made to say something but shut her mouth. She turned to look at the lady and offered her a tight lipped smile. She looked at Adam and back at the lady, seeking an introduction. She deserved that much, right? Realizing what she wanted, Adam cursed under his breath and looked at the lady.

“Franca, this is Kathlyn Georgia, my personal assistant. Kathlyn, Franca Smith, my friend and f**k buddy” Adam said shamelessly. Kathlyn’s eyes widened in shock. Franca had a bemused expression on her face. She had no problems with Adam introducing her as his f**k buddy especially to Kathlyn. Kathlyn blinked and shot a smile in Franca’s direction.

“Nice to meet you. I will go back to my desk now” She said before turning around to leave. She heard Franca whisper something to Adam inaudibly. She wanted the ground to open so she could sink into it. She staggered into her office and settled in her seat. The world was spinning around her. She wanted to scream, thrash and pull her hair. Instead, she sat perfectly still on her seat.

Adam had introduced another woman to her as his f**k buddy, after the steamy night they spent three nights back. Was it all fun and games for him? Did her emotions mean nothing to him? Why did he have s*x with her if he already had a f**k body? To mock her? Why? Many questions ran through her head but she had no answers to any.

She felt angry. Angry that he would do something like that to her. She had kept herself all this year’s for him despite that he never requested. Did he purpose sleep with her because he felt he was doing her a favor? Her head began aching with the numerous questions which travelled through it.

She wanted to call Jasmine and tell her everything which just happened but she was still a bit upset at her. Jasmine had not called her since that day and she knew she was giving her space. She wiped her eyes clean with one of her wet wipes and decided to focus on work for the rest of the day.

“What did you do that for, Adam? You hurt the poor girl” Franca chided.

“I don’t know. I was just trying to protect her.”

“Protect her from what?”

“From myself.”

“You are being ridiculous, Adam” She scolded. He pinched his eyebrows together and clicked his tongue.

“I think I love her, Franca but I have never loved anyone before. It has only ever been s*x. We had s*x but it felt different. It made more sense and I am just so afraid right now. I am afraid that I will hurt her” He confessed.

“You just hurt her with the really stupid stunt you just pulled, Adam. f**k buddy? Really? Who tells a woman they love that?” She scolded further.

“I know I messed up but what would you have had me do?” He splayed his arms and huffed tiredly.

“Tell her genuinely about your feelings for her?”

“I can’t do that.”

“Why?”

“I don’t think I can give her the best” He said. His eyes fell on Kathlyn whose body was rocking with sobs filling him with sadness. “She us crying because of me right now. I will do worse things.”

“She is crying because you chose to be an asshole. Adam, you are a great guy. Be good for her. Let her see the passionate manner in which you love her. Let her be the one to choose if she wants to he with you or not” Franca advised. He ran a hand through his hair and hissed in frustration. His shoulders slumped tiredly. Franca was right and he hated to admit it. He glanced over at Kathlyn who was wiping her eyes now and memories of Friday night came flooding back.

How softly he had made love to her, how slowly and intentionally he had wanted to please her and how he stiffened on her when he realized that he was in love with her. Life is crazy. It was funny how he fell in love with the most unexpected person in the shortest span of time.

“She certainly hates you now” Franca said when she noticed the look he was giving Kathlyn.

“I know” He breathed. “I f****d up.”

“You should apologize to her. I get you are afraid because you have never felt like this before but you should not push your chance at love away. If you think she does not deserve you, make yourself deserving. Although I think she is already in love with you” Franca said. Adam rolled his eyes at her and inhaled.

“I will let her say that to me herself” He said seriously. Franca shrugged and picked up her handbag from the table. She rose up from her seat, straightened her blouse and offered a smile to Adam.

“I will be on my way now. I have a doctor’s appointment. Make sure you do the right thing” She said seriously. She blew a kiss in his direction before making her way out of his office. Adam watched her walk away, marveled at how good she was. He never expected her to be so calm about his feelings for Kathlyn.

Franca had confessed her feelings for him some time in the past but he dismissed it as feelings of lust being mistaken for love. It was common knowledge that when a person f***s you well, you are tempted to feel like you love them. That was exactly what he told her. He glanced at Kathlyn again, feeling like a total douche for the stunt he pulled.

He had had crushes on girls in the past but what he felt for Kathlyn was something he had never felt before. He wanted to always be around her, wanted to run his fingers down her bottom lip, wanted to kiss her till she couldn’t feel her lips anymore and so much more. He felt a need to protect her and shower her with all the affection he could muster but how was he going to do that?

He thought about apologizing to her first but he had no idea how he would do that. She probably hated him now. He groaned again and shut his eyes as he thought of how to get Kathlyn to understand his stand.
