Clarissa’s pov.
The next morning, I was back to how life had been before Theo had decided to barge into my life like a hurricane. Today was a free day at college, giving me the perfect time to gather my thoughts and body from last night’s mess.
I stood up, yawning. I felt so exhausted even though I had just woken up from a deep slumber.
Working at a club can be so strength draining, goodness!
Clara crossed my mind. Immediately my feet touched the floor, looking around for my phone, I sighted it seated on the table, picking it up I dialed her number.
She picked up the second ring. “Where have you been?”
I moved the phone away from my ear, it was too early for her to be this loud and energetic.
“I was at work Clara,” I sighed, padding my feet to the kitchen.
“Which of them? Because I damn went to the convenience store you told me about because you forgot photo cards, but I found out you don’t even work there, really Stella?” She quipped.
Fuck, my morning even had to turn this way!
“You must have gone to the wrong one, trust me on this.”
“It was the same one, I swear. You better start explaining.” There was a shuffle in the background and a loud thump.
“Where are you right now?” I asked, my brow scrunching a bit, knowing all too well it must have had one of her one nightstands yesterday.
“Someone decided to ditch me last night and I ended up partying. Which led me to go home with a good looking guy, so bad his face didn’t match the effort he put into bed” she scoffed “I am on my way back to my house, just picking up my s**t”
“Well,at least we both got it rough last night” I laughed.
“f**k you, b***h!” She broke out laughing too. Her laughter paused “Seriously where were you yesterday night?”
That seemed to sober me up quickly than a long sleep “let’s meet up at our usual spot when you are done, we will talk then”
I did some stuff around the house before getting ready to go see Clara.
I walked on the road, trying to bring up a suitable story for last night,something that tells the truth in a way without screaming out loud that I was a ballet dancer at a club.
“Clarrisa ” a very familiar voice called and I stilled, turning my head to look at the devil in an Armani suit seated at the back seat of a black car.
Theo Alejandro.
“What the f**k?” The shock planted my feet to the ground, unable to move it, as I was left there looking at Theo with my jaw hanging open “What are you doing here?”
“I found you Clarissa, that makes you mine” he smirked “Get in”
What happened to not mixing work and our personal lives?
I shook my head “How did you find me?”
Chills broke out on my body at the thought of what he knows about me.
He seems to have read my thoughts “Get it and I will explain it to you”
My legs began to move before my mind could even process things. I opened the door and got it,closing it after getting it.
The manager doesn’t even know where I lived, and the man who I had just met yesterday might have possibly known all about me.
“Did you get my gift last night?” He asked as the driver began driving.
“Yes I gave it out”
“What?” He looked at me ridiculously like I was stupid for giving out $30,000.
“I don’t need your money,you can keep it and stay away from me” I bit back,I paused "Why did you find me?”
“I told you to hide love, you didn’t do a good job at that” he discarded his suit jacket making a show in rolling up his shirt sleeve.
“How did you find me?” I turned to him, focusing my attention on him.
“I did a background research” he said calmly like he didn’t just flip my world upside down. Did he find out about my Father?
“Wh…what did you find out?” I took a breath in trying to stop my hands from shaking, he really knows how to take things to the next level.
“Clarrisa Wild, you are in college and a good hacker. A secret you would love to keep away from people for a reason I have no idea of” he looked at me, waiting on me to erupt like I was a volcano at its reaching point.
But I didn’t want this to drag this out any further “You can’t just search up things about me, what do you want Theo?”
The driver's eyes widened a bit, I don’t know if it was by the reference or the fact our conversation sounded anything but normal.
“You”
Just one word, yet it meant a lot of things. It spiked fear in me.
“Me? I have nothing to give you. I would apologize to you for the mess I caused last night if that’s what you want” I rushed out.
“I want you to dance for me Clarissa, only me and no one else” he paused "For a year"
For a year?!
Like the fact that he wanted me to be his exclusive dancer wasn't crazy enough.
“Why would I do that?, you can shove your request up your ass Theo, I am not doing that”
Amusement lit up in his eyes “you forget I know everything about you,from your dead mother to your father who stole from me”
"Stole from you?” I asked, looking at him with wide eyes.
He kept shut, still assessing me with that cold gaze like he was giving me a choice to choose but that was anything far from it.
“What do I get from this?”
“Your Father's life back as his” he paused “only if you agree to be mine only, mine to do as I please”
If you Theo Alejandro thinks he has me where he wanted me, he was in for a rude awakening.
“Yes” I said, just as the car took a hard swerve.
