1500 Words
Audrey's P.O.V "Maybe he's jealous." Amy said as we arrived at the bar and ordered some drinks, i told her everything that happened on our way here. "Why?" "I think he's falling for you." I scoffed, "No way, he can't do that." i took a large sip of my martini. "Why? He's married to a sexy, beautiful, hard working woman. No man in his right senses would pass on that." "Can we please stop talking about him now, i came here to forget about him." Amy laughed at me but she didn't say one more word about the topic, we drank and danced all night, i had no idea what the time was. I returned home at ten thirty pm, the butler opened the door; "Good Evening Mrs Sullivan." he greeted. "Good Evening Ben, is everyone asleep already?" i slurred "Yes ma'am, Except mr sullivan, he's in the study." "Okay." i said and walked in, before i could get to the stairs, brian appeared and startled me. "I'm sorry ma'am, i didn't mean to scare you." "It's okay." i giggled, i remembered my car was still at the office. "Brian?" "Yes ma'am." "Could you...please get someone to retrieve my car from the company? My cousin and I went out in hers and she offered to drop me off since i was too tipsy to drive, i am drunk." i chuckled "It will be done by morning ma'am, do you need helpgettingto your room?" "Oh no, i can find my way. I'm not that drunk, thank you." i smiled at him and headed to the bedroom, i walked to the bed and hopped on it. "Why does this sheet smell like mason? Hmmm, he smells good." i snickered. Mason's P.O.V I sat in the study for hours and when i was done, i closed my laptop and walked out of the study. The guest room bed wasn't as comfortable as mine, i decided to sleep in my bedroom. Walking to my bedroom, i heard brian and the butler talking; "Even while she's drunk, she still looks cute." "Don't let the boss hear you talking about his wife in that manner." brian said. I ignored them both and went into the bedroom and spotted her on my bed, what the hell is she doing on my bed? I approached her and discovered she was fast asleep; "You really had to fall asleep on my bed." i muttered. I took off her shoes and jewelries, unzipped her dress that reeked of alcohol; "What were you thinking getting drunk and coming home at this hour?" i said, clearly annoyed by her irresponsibility. I took off her dress and she was just in her underwear, she had a beautiful body, long legs and a smooth skin, my hands were itching to touch her. Taking a large shirt from my closet and putting it on her, she stirred and gripped me; "What...are you doing?" she slurred and she was asleep again, she sure did look cute. I released her grip and covered her up, i went to the bathroom to take a shower, when i returned, she had her left leg out. The shirt had rolled up to her hip and her bare skin exposed, i swallowed and averted my gaze from her. 'Does she know how hard it is for me already, how can she seduce me without even knowing?' I laid next to her and covered her again with the quilt, i turned off the bedside lamp and closed my eyes to sleep. Two minutes later, her leg and hand were on top of me, i stiffened and couldn't move. 'Audrey please don't do this, lying next to you with nothing but your undies under that shirt is already hard enough as it is, why are you bent on torturing me tonight? why do you have to pass out on my bed?' I tried to slip away, her fingers clutched my shirt and she held on tight; "Mmmm, you..smell..good." she mumbled in her sleep. 'Who was she talking about? Me? No, Enzo? Was she talking about Enzo? No, she can't be talking about enzo.' I turned to face her, "Audrey, Audrey." i called softly, "Dre." "Mmmm." "Who smells good?" i asked softly "Mason smells good." she made a little giggled and snuggled closer to me and fell asleep again. I smiled and wrapped my arm around her, i placed a kiss on her forehead before i finally succumbed to the exhaustion. Audrey's P.O.V I felt a throbbing headache and my left hand was cramped like I've been holding something for too long. I tried to adjust my eyes to the brightness in the room, i flexed my fingers and found out i was holding a male shirt. "Finally, you're awake." i heard mason's voice, he was standing next to me shirtless. I tried to sit up and i discovered i had nothing but my undies and a shirt on, holding my head, i couldn't remember what happened. "What happened? Why am i...." i looked around, "On your bed!" i exclaimed. "You passed out on my bed. Don't worry, i didn't touch you inappropriately." he said, stirring a cup of tea or coffee in his hand. "Here, i asked they make this for you, it will help." he handed it over to me, i took the cup and took a sip of the coffee. Mason and i stared at each other, it was intense and i felt hot, a knock on the door interrupted the moment; "Who is it?" mason asked, his eyes never left mine. "Boss, there's an urgent business you need to attend to." brian said "I'll meet you in the study." "Okay boss." Mason slowly approached me, my heart thumped hard in my chest, he got closer and leaned in, he was only an inch close to me. He took his shirt lying on my lap, my bare thighs became exposed, i jumped and quickly covered up, he put on his shirt and walked out of the room. I jumped out of the bed and ran into my room, rushed into the bathroom and had a quick shower to go down for breakfast. Mason's P.O.V I entered into the study and brian gave me the report on dianne; "Boss, the informat said your ex wife is planning on going to the press. She plans on making herself a victim of ill treatment and emotional trauma." i smiled and paced slowly. "What do we do boss?" brian asked "Nothing." "Boss?" "Let her go." Going to the press means exposing herself to ridicule, it was time to use the facts i've gathered to ruin her. "Let's see how the press would believe whatever she says after we release the first scandal of the whites." i said. The day went by, it was weekend and everyone was home the entire day, at nine pm after dinner, i went into the study and opened my laptop. The first news that popped up on my screen was: 'Billionaire divorcee, Mason Sullivan pays a lady to marry him, in order to take a child away from her mother. Who would the lady be?' Another headline on the blog say: 'Ex wife of the billionaire, Mason Sullivan cries out to the press for the injustice that was done to her. Forcefully taking a child away from her mother is not acceptable, who is this new wife of mason sullivan?' Audrey barged into my office with brian behind her, "What is going on mason, how the hell did this happen?" she asked "Dianne happened, she did this." "And what are you going to do about it?" "Nothing." "Nothing? You can't sit and do nothing, this isn't good. You'll have the press snooping into you and i'll be exposed." she ranted, i sighed and stood up, i walked towards her and said; "Let them." I walked out of the study, she followed. "Are you doing this on purpose?" she asked "I told you, i'm not doing this." "But you can stop it." "I don't want to." "And why?" Grandma Sullivan asked as she came out of her room to meet us on the balcony. "Grandmother you know i do not get involved with the controversies on the media." "But Audrey's reputation is on the line here, dianne paints her to be nothing but a cheap slut. That is the height of it, you need to do something and fast." grandma said "That's Audrey's problem, she asked me never to interfere in her affairs, i won't do a thing. She can handle herself, right?" i turned to Audrey, she was shocked to hear that but i didn't care. I walked away and went straight to Aaliyah's room, i wanted to spend the night with her. "Daddy?" she said as she spotted me in her room. "Why are you still awake?" i asked "I'm worried, i heard the maids talking about mommy." "Don't worry about that sweetheart, Daddy will not let you go."
