CHAPTER 1.
Marina's P.O.V
He looked at me in a weird way. It was weird in all ramifications, but it turned me on. He was giving me the look a predator gave its prey. A look of pure lust.
He licks his lower lips slowly as his gaze lands on my lips.
Holy s**t, that look.
My legs fell and I almost lost my composure. I was already a mess down there, I didn't know I could get so wet just by him looking at him.
He walks towards me and take my purse from my hand and drops it on the counter. Without further ado,be claims my lips.
I woke up immediately. I have been having this nightmares for about two weeks now and I keep on seeing the same face. It was the man I had a one night stand with. A very steamy one at that.
No one have ever made love to me like that and maybe that was why I couldn't forget the scene. My brain keeps on repeating the scene and I started dreaming about it too.
We had a passionate night, a very passionate night at that. We made love passionately, over and over again. It wasn't looking like just casual s*x, it was pretty intense but sadly maybe that was the case for me alone because it was just a one night stand and that was why I was long gone before he even woke up the next morning.
Everything that happened was a mistake and I was happy I wouldn't see him again.
I haven't met him before, that night was the first time I met him. We clicked instantly, had some drinks and we had s*x at the hotel.
It was one of my down days, my boyfriend; Asher, wasn't picking my calls. We had a fight earlier that day and he had thrown something at me.
Asher was violent in nature but he was a sweet guy, our relationship was about to hit rock bottom and I needed a distraction that was why I went to the club that day. I had no idea I would be having s*x with a really handsome but random man.
I felt really bad since that day because I did something I shouldn't have done. I cheated on my boyfriend of 3 years, it wasn't as if I cheated. He had threatened to break up with me during the fight but we have gotten back together the next day.
"Are you okay". Asher asked. "Are you having those nightmares again". He asked quietly.
It was obvious he was concerned about me, that made me feel really worse than I felt before.
I am a really bad person. He always feels so concerned whenever I have those nightmares, only if he knew what I saw in those dreams.
"I am okay, I am just hot". I explained.
He sat up straight before taking a look at the bedside clock. "It's just 4 in the morning, let's take a shower" he suggested and I shook my head immediately.
"No, I am okay" I told him almost immediately. I knew what having a shower together means. He wants us to have s*x.
I haven't been comfortable having s*x with Asher since that incident happen,I feel like I was betraying him and honestly the s*x wasn't that good. Asher was selfish, really selfish especially during s*x. He focuses on his own comfort, he just wants to ride you until he cums. He does nothing out of the ordinary, just the normal boring s*x. It was the opposite with that guy, he focused on me thoroughly and he.....
Oh I was thinking about it again.
"Are you sure you are okay?" I heard him ask again.
"Sure, sure, why?" I forced a smile.
"Babe,are you sure everything is alright?" He paused. "Are you hiding something from me? Wait, are you pregnant?" He asked, he was looking elated.
"What? No, I am not. Why would you think that? Do I look pregnant?"
His face fell immediately.
Asher always wanted a baby, but I didn't share the same goal as his. I wanted to have a baby after getting married, that have been my life long dream. I didn't want to have a baby before getting married but Asher wanted the opposite. That have been one of our major problem in the relationship, he didn't want to marry me now but he still wants a baby.
"I am not pregnant asher, why would you think that?"
"Maybe you should explain why you are behaving strange then".
"I am not behaving strange, I only had a nightmare and the least you can do is to understand me". I told him.
"Understand you? Who says I don't understand you? Don't you love me anymore? Are you seeing someone already". He asked in a loud tone. He was getting aggravated gradually and it was just 4 in the morning, Asher was not a patient person and he was really insecure but I love him. I really do but I don't know how long I can take this.
"What are you saying? I love you Asher, I really do".
"Then what's wrong, why haven't we made love for the past few weeks? You don't even allow me touch you, we don't get past making out nowadays". He complained.
"I don't want to talk about it". I said before leaving the room. I entered the bathroom and shut the door, I wanted a minute for myself. I was almost panicking there. I haven't composed myself enough when I had Asher jamming the door. He already left the house and it was just 4 in the morning.

"Please scan this and send it to me" I requested politely.
"Okay ma'am". Lola replied.
I work as a real estate agent for a real estate company. The job wasn't that tiring and the pay was good too. It could pay my bills and there would still be some change left, I usually get huge tips from customers too.
Asher didn't call me and I didn't call either, I didn't think I wanted to talk to him yet. He was not an understanding partner and maybe we weren't really compatible after all.
"I would step out in an hour time, I have house surveys to run". I told her and she looked at the schedule on her table before looking at me.
"Mr Starr already went for the house runs, he said you should attend his meetings instead". She told me.
I sighed, Mr Starr was our manager and he always did this change of schedule in last minute. He knew he would be getting money from the house runs that was why he insisted on doing it today thereby making me loose the money I was suppose to get.
"Mr starr can be really annoying". I said before taking out my laptop to continue working. I thought I could leave work early today under the disguise of a house survey.
"Tell me about it". Lola attested.
Lola was a really sweet girl,she was the youngest amongst the workers in the company, she just graduated from college and she was really hardworking and reliable. She's dedicated to her job too. She is more like a younger sister to me.
I was typing off on my computer, about to shut it down when the Telecom rang.
"Yes Lola".
"The client Mr Starr was suppose to meet today is here already. Is it okay if I send him to your office?" She asked politely.
"Yes please". I told her.
"Okay".
I brushed my hair with my palms, straightened my shirt before taking a look at the mirror. I think I looked presentable and professional enough.
I heard a knock on my door.
"Come in please". I instructed and the door flew open to reveal the last person I expected to see.
I was damn sure I wouldn't see him again.
"I finally found you mi princessa". He said beaming with smiles.
