CHAPTER : 8

1296 Words
While Zeenia had been leaving the office, she passed through Theodore's office and watched at him through the glass windows. She found him working on his computer. He gazed up while she was passing by. But then he bent down his head, appearing to be busy. Her Uber driver arrived within some time. It was one a.m when she reached home. While traveling she received her text message, asking her to report at the same time, the next day. When the driver dropped her in front of the building, it was raining. "What the f**k" she swore when the cabbie left her in the rains. She hurried into the building and pressed for the elevator. When she climbed the elevator, she was thinking about him but hoped not to meet the handsome Advocate the next day. Hoping her duty was assigned at some other department, Zeenia wished. She thought "Who needs the pressure of an attractive man, with a tall lean body and rippling muscles? Thinking about his alluring and powerful physique makes me want to fall into his arms, every time I gaze into those penetrating shades of blue eyes. Also one would not be able to resist, that deep silky and husky voice."    The elevator opened on her floor, she was so deep in thoughts that she didn't realize that she was standing in front of her apartment. She placed the key in the keyhole while thinking about 'Theodore Jackson.' She wished she could get him off her head. She thought he didn't like the type of woman who would cower, but he might be testing her she thought, to check if he would take his s**t behavior. Zeenia had decided that she would protest. You never know men, she thought. She would take Tina's opinion so that she would help her get over Adv. Theodore Jackson.  When she entered, she dropped her jacket on the chair, to find that there was a male jacket already present there. Zeenia understood that Tina was sleeping with her doctor. Zeenia rushed into her room to get some sleep. Though she did not acknowledge, deep down Zeenia was pleased with the assignments. Deep down, being around Theodore, made her feel like a woman. But deep down the feeling of helplessness never controlled her before. Stepping into the shower, she couldn't think about anyone or anything. She was worried as to why she was always consumed with the thought of that cold and heartless, Advocate. She felt pathetic thinking about him controlling her emotions. Only for a second though she thought that he had a heart, and yet she craved, she needed, and she desired that cold, heartless man. Zeenia woke up at two in the afternoon. All night she could see his eyes watching at her in her dreams when she woke up she was trying to figure out, where she had seen those eyes before. Though she had stopped her medications, the withdrawals were not as bad, as she had thought. She thought it was possible that she had not realized the withdrawal symptoms because of the distractions caused by Theodore.  Her assignment was at four pm that day. It was two hours still remaining. But it was a rainy day, her long hair was in frizzy curls. She thought of getting a warm, dry climate with sunshine. She had been thinking all this while stepping out of the shower, and patting her hair down, looking into the mirror. The door of her room opened, and Tina entered, wearing a blue suit, and a white shirt. She was looking very professional but very tired. Her hair was held up in a ponytail. She dropped into a chair and said that her doctor was killing her. She had a sad tired smile on her face. She was so tired that her eyes closed immediately, and she slept. Zeenia said "Please don't fall asleep, at least now. Tina opened her eyes, and asked Zeenia "How is it going with your, rich dominant male advocate?" Zeenia replied, "How do you know he is rich?" Tina replied that her doctor- boyfriend, very well knew, Zeenia's boss. She said that the hospital where she was working, receives donations from your boss, for research to combat blood and genetic diseases. She then continued and told Zeenia, to consider herself lucky. Also if he gives Zeenia a recommendation letter, she could get a full scholarship, to any university of her choice. She then told Zeenia, "Even if he wants to f**k you daily except for Sundays, my advice is to let him. Also, some guys even want to bite your neck and pretend that they are Vampires. Let them be if you can get something from them. " Zeenia could not help but laugh, because Tina saw the world differently from her. Also, she had not been labeled as having stayed in a mental hospital, like Zeenia. She then asked Tina, "Vampires? Really?"   Tina replied "This is the real world, and yes there are Vampires. They may not be like in books and in movies. But they do exist, and your Advocate is probably one. They take you and suck you dry. Then they discard you. The thing you have to do is to be a better Vampire. You can get what you want, from these vampires, and you suck them dry, and then get the hell out. Make them love you and don't love them back. It is like putting a stake in their hearts. " Zeenia shook her head, her mouth was wide open, and she glared at her friend. She said, "You know Tina, you are so scary. How can you connect the notion of vampires which are creatures of fiction, with men like 'Theodore' who are real?" Tina replied that she was very talented, that way. Zeenia had hoped that her friend would give her an insight into how to deal with 'Theodore.' But she saw that Tina was not in that mood today. So she asked her friend to run off so that she could dress up, or else she would be late for work.  Zeenia glanced at her clock to realize she would be late for work. She had also forgotten to give a call to her Uber driver. When she called, he said he would be there as soon as he could. When he came to pick her up it was very late. She rushed into the building, and inside her office. She was an hour late for work.  She had not seen Theodore when she passed his office, and she felt a sense of relief. Maybe he was in a meeting. She thought that she would pretend that she had been here earlier. She opened the computer, and read her assignments. While she was working, a cold hand touched hers. She pulled her hand away. Partly because of surprise, and partly because of how cold was his hand.  "Theodore asked her, You are late. What do you think I should do to you?" While saying that his eyes changed colors, and flickered with the warmth of cool light. Zeenia asked him "What do you want to do to me?" She said that without realizing what she had uttered. His eyes lightened, and a soft glow covered them, and he slanted his head to one side and smiled, and this time Zeenia saw his perfect white teeth. It was a surprising relief, and Zeenia breathed slowly relaxed. She said "Advocate. Jackson, I had a problem with my transportation."  He replied, "Call me Theodore." He leaned his head towards her. Zeenia became warm and trembled with arousal. How could any men elicit those responses? Had she fallen in love with this dominant, and gorgeous person?" She knew she wanted him deep inside her. She wanted him to hold her in his arms, and never let her go.
