KAYDEN’s POV.
Imagine the look of surprise on her face when the director introduced me as the male lead for the movie. I have never seen someone’s countenance change so fast as Ayana’s face when I step into the room.
A little smirk forms on my face, she looks like she is about to devour me and I am here for the drama. I am here for every single thing that concerns her.
“This man has not appeared for any of the readings” her voice echoes in the room, “how can you just make him the male lead out of nowhere”
“This has already been discussed, Ayana” the director says, “the initial actor for the role didn’t show up and we had him replaced. I am sure you won’t have an issue with Mr Phillips here but if you do, I am sure Mr Bromte will know how to rectify that”
“This asshole” she rolls her eyes, anger brimming at the edge of her voice, “I will have a talk with Mr Bromte and if he is not replaced, I am declining the offer”
Without sparing me another glance, she turns around and storms out of the room, her whole body full of anger towards me. She looks so different from the woman I saw last night. She looks more professional and more confident but the anger in her eyes for me hasn't changed and I am not ready to let that get into her head yet.
“I will have a talk with her” I tell the director before walking towards the direction she just went. She hasn’t gone far when I grab a hold of her hand and pull her to me. She lands in my embrace, her hands immediately pushing against my chest in a bid not to touch me. She is older than me but still small in front of me. Compared to me, twenty seven year old Ayana stones look like a twenty year old woman.
“What the hell do you think you are doing?” Anger rips through her as she pushes me away, “how dare you?”
“Are you really going to quit?” I went ahead to ask her, “are you sure about that?”
“Get away from me you f*****g asshole” the words spill out of my mouth like hot coal, “how dare you touch me”
“I just want to be sure”
I really don’t want to piss her off but there is something about how upset she is that makes my heart flutter. She looks so beautiful and I really can not take my eyes off of her. She is dressed in a pair of yoga pants and a yoga shirt which accentuates her figure. Her hair is pulled into a messy bun and I genuinely do not know if anyone here understands the fact that this woman is a f*****g billionaire yet she looks so calm.
“I will eat my words if I don’t get you out of here” with that she storms off while I make a shooting motion after her. Everything about her f*****g turns me on in the most inappropriate way. When I saw her earlier, I wanted to pull her into my embrace and hug her..or better still kiss her but I didn’t want to drop a bomb on her like that and I restrained myself.
“I am sorry about that, sir” the director’s voice jolts me out of my thoughts.
“It’s fine. Tell me, what should I start with?”
“We will start with other supporting roles until you are ready to start filming your scenes. Is that okay?”
“Of course, sure”
Nodding at me, he walks away while Aaron makes his way towards me, his lips pressed into a thin line. I forcefully dragged him here myself, he wouldn’t come and I was not about to stay here alone when I knew Ayana would hang my head if I dared to do anything to her..yet! She didn’t respond to my message last night when I asked her if she wanted to play with me. I went out of my way last night to send another message after the usual one I do send and I know she will be on alert right now!
“What’s up?”
“That man last night..was Jack”
My world comes to a f*****g halt. What the heck does he mean by that was Jack? That man was Jack? How didn’t I see him? How are they back together? A lot of questions are going on in my head as I try to wrap my head around what the hell i just heard. They broke up, they called off their engagement so why the f**k is that motherfucker back? Is he here to steal her away from me again or be an asshole to her again.
“How did you find out?”
“He came to drop her off” Aaron answers, “he was with her in the chopper”
“What? And you are only telling me now?”
“You were busy” he says in his defense, “and I didn’t want you throwing hands”
I grit my teeth together, this fool! He should have told me. What the hell are they doing together? Why the heck is he back? The more I think about it, the more upset I become. Without saying anything to Aaron again, I walk away.
Pulling open the car door, I make to climb into it but stop when I see Ayana and her assistant coming out of the set. For this movie, Malachi made sure the set was built..every single part of it and I loved it. I loved the attention to detail and everything else. Echo is one of the biggest entertainment companies in this country, of course it should live up to its name. There is a hotel downtown where most of the cast members are staying including Ayana. Believe me, I have checked. She has her phone pressed against her ear and a small smile on her face..I bet she is talking to jack. My blood begins to boil. He f*****g left her three f*****g months ago and when he comes back. She jumps into his arms. Anger bristles inside of me and I start to walk towards her before I change my mind.
“Kayden!” Aaron calls after me but I ignore him, doubling my steps. I am in front of her in no time, luckily she has just finished her call.
“You again?” Anger is evident in her tone.
“I will drop you off at the hotel” I tell her, not caring about the anger in the voice. I am also upset, I didn’t show it.
“Thank you but my fiance is here to pick me up”
Before I can say anything, I hear some footsteps behind me and I turn around to see the jack guy coming with a stupid looking smile on his face. What the hell! Why is he here? Isn’t he supposed to be back in New York or something? What the heck did she see in him anyways. Compared to me, he looks like a douchebag. He isn’t that tall and he looks like a f*****g rat..well, that might be an exaggeration but even at that, I am everything better than him.
I watch as Ayana’s face breaks into a smile and she brushes past me into his arms and he plants a kiss on her lips. Anger corrodes my entire being, how dare he touch her like that?
“You don’t have to remain here, Jack” I hear her tell him, “didn’t you say your work in New York is done, aren’t you supposed to get ready to leave for London?”
“I made a mistake once, princess” he brushes some hair from her face, “I am not letting you out of my sight again. I purchased a cottage downtown, we should stay there”
Ayana chuckles lightly, throwing her hair back.
“Are you saying you are going to stay here until filming is done?”
“Of course” he pulls her closer to himself, “I can’t stay one minute away from you anymore, baby. I miss you, I miss sleeping next to you and filling you up with…
“This isn’t some kind of w***e bar” the words are out of my mouth before I force myself to stop, disgust written all over my face.
“Excuse you?” Jack has a confused look on his face, “are you talking to us?”
“This is a movie set not a strip club” I tell them again, anger seething through me.
“Who the hell do you think you are!” Ayana half yells as her hand collides with my face in a slap, “how dare you? You spoke to me like this last night and I let it go and now..how dare you speak to my fiancé in that manner? I will have you arrested if you do not leave us alone”
she is upset, I can see it but I am also too upset to apologize to her. How can she jump into his arms when he left and after three years he comes back?”
“Don’t bother about him, princess” Jack’s voice is calm and subtle, “he is just a child”
“What?” I angrily grab his shirt, murderous intent flashing through my face, even my wolf howls in my head, “say that one more time and you will wish you didn’t”
Someone pulls me off him..Aaron. My anger is increasing by the second, how dare he call me a child?
“Let’s go baby” Jack says and grabs a hold of her hand but instead I pull away from him and she lands into my embrace, my hand immediately snakes round her waist. Right now, courtesy be damned.
“You will be making a terrible mistake if you go with this asshole, Ayana”
Funny enough, she doesn’t push me away. Her eyes continue to stare into mine and I see something in them, something I am not so sure of.
She swallows hard before pushing me off, “respect my boundaries, whoever you are”
Turning around, Jack leads her towards the car leaving me standing all to myself. What the actual f**k!
“You shouldn’t have done that, Kayden” Aaron sounds frustrated and I understand. This will cause a big scandal if any paparazzi gets involved.
“I will take you to the hotel” he says again, his tone signifying how upset he is.
“That cottage” my head whips towards him, “find it for me”
Not wanting to hear what he has to say next, I start walking towards the car. The memory of Ayana’s gaze still digging a hole inside of me. She has the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen, I can’t even begin to imagine it.
“This is a mistake, Kayden,” Aaron calls after me.
“Of course not,” I respond to him. I am f*****g obsessed with that woman and until I satisfy my craving, I am not letting go.
“The way he fills her up?” I scoff, I can give her multiple orgasms in a single f*****g day!
